The Ranchero [Corpus Christi, TX], November 24, 1860
Our State exchanges come to hand this week containing calls for meetings, and reports of meetings already held, which indicate that Texas is in a blaze, and that the people are moving and preparing to meet the crisis, consequent upon the triumph of abolitionism. The propriety of Texas again rallying under the Lone Star is freely discussed, and resolutions to that effect have been passed in many places. An unmistakable disposition is manifested never to submit to the humiliation which now threatens the South.
