Below we give a few extracts from a
series of letters from this place to the
Tiffin, Ohio, Herald, and signed II. (J. K.
We intended to pubiish the letter yester-
day, but it was crowded out. The cor-
respondence gives a general description of
our country, and describes very prettily
our beautiful prairies and the live and
business-like towns, ami as ti matter of
course, gives Fort Worth the lead as the
best town in this state. Head what he
says:

I he Rio Grande is the place where na-
tional cattle come down to drink, and
look horns across the stream.
Fort Worth Has a religiously inclined
population, judging from the fullness of
the different churches yesterday.
Bright fir s are to be seen every night
out from the city, caused by the burning
of the dry grass on the prairies.
Ft. Worth is the county seat of Tarrant
county through which runs the bright,
clear and crystal waters of the Trinity
river, with its west fork leading oft to the
northwest through this county and ex-
tending through counties joining on the
west and northwest, also tae other fork ot
the 'trinity taking a southwest course
through the county. This branch ot the
Trinity 1 will not try to describe, for 1
can not—no one can describe a stream so
beautiful, ted by bubbling springs—its
pure, limpid waters running over a rock
and pebbly bottom, and and as transpar-
ent as the air itself 'almost. This country
is finely watered and is suitable for any
and ail pursuits of industry and trade.
Its soil is of the very best kind and quali-
ty. Y ou can find two or three different
kinds of soil on the same farm—mulatto,
red mulatto, black waxy, sand and grav-
elly soils, and all underlaid with limestone,
winch now and then crops to the surface
in ravines. The soil, as a rule, is Iron)
two to eight feet in depth, and inex-
haustible.
****** *
We went through some of the stores of
the city and called on the editors of the
two dailies; and right here let me say that
the people of Fort VYorih know how to
support a daily. A city of 9,000 support-
ing two dailies and two weeklies, and 1
will say that the little town gives the dai-
lies more advertising than the city ot Ciu-
chati gives the Enquirer and Gazette, and
four times as much as Tiffin gives the Tri-
bune, Advertiser, Press and Herald—and
they pay more for the same space. They
pay $2 per year for the weeklies and $12
foT the dalles, and there is not a business
man in the city that does not take both,
and has an advertisement in one or both ot
them ; and they never grumble on pay day
for they know the value oi a newspaper. ”
Joe Leonard.
Mr. W. P. Freeman came into the city
Saturday and gave information to the ef-
fect that Joe Leonard, the party who ab-
sconded some time back, leaving quite a
number in the lurch, was stopping with
iris brother-in-law, Mr. Jack Cole, who
lives about thirteen miles from Weather-
ford. A posse consisting ot Marshal
(Jourtright, officers Moody and Bryan and
Mr. Robt. Smith equipped themselves and
started out in search of said Leonard. The
party traveled all Sunday night and ar-
rived at Mr. Cole’s house about daylight
Monday morning, but too late, however,
for Mr. Leonard had left Saturday morn-
ing for parts unknown. Information was
obtained that Mr. Leonard had been
stopping with Mr. Cole since his disap-
pearance.
The party knowing that nothing could
be done retraced their steps to the city, ar-
riving yesterday evening about 2:30
o’clock.
One of the party informs us that Mr.
Leonard has communicated with his
friends and family fit this place every day
j since he left. Although Mr. Leonard is
armed and defies the law, it is probable
that another attempt will be made to cap-
ture him, and we hope will meet with suc-
cess,

The Texarkana Democrat comes to us
this week -in a wav that we dispise.” Af-
ter reading one side in the usual way. we
turned the paper to continue an article, and
found ourself wandering about among a
lot of advertisements. After, vainly frying
to find the continuation of the artieife com-
menced, and by standing on our head,
walking around on our ear. etc,, fora
while, we come to the conclusion that we
were drunk or the man that made up the
Democrat was. with the majority of cir-
cumstances in favor ot the latter conclu-
sion.
If we remember aright, the good little
hoy receives the Sunday school ticket and
the castor oil. and dies young; while the
bad boy' steals theatre checks and sucks
cider from the bung hole through a straw,
and eventually becomes, a metujber of the
legislature. This is a sinful world.
It must fill the soul of the average hoy
with some idea of the grandeur of civiliza-
tion when, after lie has smoked his first
cigar he reflects <>n# thes versatility of the |
common woodshed, and its adaptibili
his own purposes ami to those of the
man.

Not True.
Under this caption the morning paper
assails us without mercy, and proceeds to
show up the real facts in the Ashford case,
and tomb up the integrity of the officers
in question. Now we assert again, that
unnecessary violence was used in making
the arrest of Mr. Ashford, and that one of
the policemen did strike him over the head
with a pistol, and that he was hurried into
the calaboose without an opportunity ot
| giving bond.
We do not want it understood that we
tiphol 1 Mr. Ashford or any one else in the
violation of city laws, but we do mean to
make war against the rough treatment par-
ties receive sometimes at the hands of po-
licemen, and we can’t see for the life of us.
| where the law is for the use of pistols, in
such cases as the one in question. The
morning paper evidently jumps at conclu-
sions without giving the facts the proper
investigation, and as we made a mistake in
giving tlie gentleman’s name and that pa-
per does the same, proves our Assertion
