jtST We had a good white frost here
©n Thursday niglvt, the fourth- instant. A
norther had rendered the weather quite cool,
}.nd clearing off, gave «is a heavy frost.
It was a " killing frost," as we noticed
v-igetation received a blackened" hue- from
i 14. effeets. We- presume this frost exten-
rf«d to the yellow fever districts, and will
ltudoubi be hailed with joy as the destroyer
of "Yellow Jack," who has long been ruth*
lessljr slaying his thousands-of victims.
*r- T. W. Folts was always a
clever young man, but we believe since his
marriage, he has become more so. Stroll-
ing leisurely down the street, the other
day, with a dilapidate stamp of a* cigar
in our mouth, thinking about the changes
in the provision market and the mutability
of human affairs, interspersed with a few
erratic ideas concerning the price of cotton
and the Judge's election, Tom politely in-
vited ih in, and presented us with s box of
t-plendid cigars. They are among the best
in town, accordmg to our judgment, and
we ought to know something about them,
if experience amounts to anything. The
firm have a " few more of the same sort
left," besides a well selected assortment of
Dry Goods, <fce., alt of which thev will «all
on most*accommodating-terms* Give them
a call.
tsr( Iain, of" the- Bastrop Advertiser,
acknowledges the reccipt of a bottle of

Editors' Book Table.
We have received Godey, for November,
and find it as interesting and attractive as
ever. But the u Book" is so well known
here as the best thing of the kind, that
this notice is unnecessary*—indeed, we
sometimes think Godey is puffed too much ;
it may spoil him, just as a child is spoiled
by too much petting. This Magazine is
really a work adapted to the tastes of the
ladies, and it need? but to be known to
them to find favor in their eyes. Price,
$3, in advance, or $5 for the Book and
Citizen.
The Farmers' Magazine is on our table.
This, as we have so often stated, is a most
valuable scientific Agricultural Journal,
and much that is valuable could be derived
from it adapted to Texas. Number 1
Beekman street, New York; price $2, in
advance.
We have received a copy of the Texas
Ahnanae for 1859. We have not exam-
ined it thoroughly, but it seems to be
considerably improved over the edition of
last year. It contains a vast fund of useful
information, relating to Texas, and no
person in the State should be without it.
It is accompanied with a large map, in-
cluding a map of Northern Mexico, Ari-
zona and Sonora^ All the new counties,
are laid down,, and discriptior.s of them are
given in the Almanac. The statistical,
historical and agricultural knowledge is
invaluable to every Texan and all others
who wish to acquire accurate information
with regard to our great and growing
State-. Published annually at the Galves-
ton Nevos office by Messrs. Richardson.
DeBow's Review, for November, is on
•or table; This number contains several
able articles, one of which' is on the im-
portance of slave labor in the North and
West and the propriety of re-opening the
slave trade. The writer may place his
figures too high in estimating what would
be the value of the labor of a negro in
the West, yet he proves conclusively his
general propositions. The Review in point
of merit and design of the work, stands,
we believe, wilheat a rival. No statesman
or intelligent gentleman should be without
a work so invaluabl*.
The Printer: A Monthly Newspaper,
devoted to the "Art Preservative of all
Arts,n is on our table. This is an elegant
and beautilul specimen of the art which it

John T. Harcourt, Esq.—We had the
the pleasure of a call from Mr. Harcourt,
a candidate for the Judgeship, on Tuesday,
and were glad to find him a courteous and
due looking gentleman. He thought that
great injustice had been done him here,
and that the Citizen " ought not to fight
him any more." He got us to strike him
a circular, which will be found on our firs^
page. A portion of this circular ru
bump against the Citizen. As editors—
a matter of course—we have a right 3*"\f °n° Ins,a,,ce:
peply and defense; and besides, in matfr*
of this kind, we do not belong to the n
resisting philosophy—just in the
manner that Mr. Harcourt claims
privilege, and exercised it, of " p
into" the Fayette county circular a:
Citizen. But in this case we are dv
to be lenient and waive our privili
this occasion. We will simply refer
readers to Mr. Webb's'circular, which

is a clear-headed document, and. is an
sufficient reply to Mr. IIarcocrt whe

C IRC CJj AR.
to the VOTERS .of the first judicial dis-
trict.
Fellow-Citizens:—John T. narcourt,
Ifsq., a candidate for Judge of yonr Dis-
trict, issued a circular in which he uses the
Mowing language, viz:
My political opponents commenced the effort
array party feeling against me, and whenever
urged Democrats to stand (rue to their colors,
was because the opposition tvere assailing me
pon purely parly grounds. To show yot: Ihe
ft of luetics that have been resorted to, I will
friend, Bill Webb, who is the
"boíl wether" of the K. N, party in Fayette,
wrote a confidential letter to Alex. Irwin a* Fay-
etvilla, telling him " to remember 1 ha t liar court
¡Was the President of (Tic Domoc.-alio Association
f Fayette county—that they had ¡varen Col.
Dancy, and if thev couid heat iinreouri, the
Democratic parly in Fayette would be dead —
that Smith idus a Know-Nothing at. heart to hi*
certain knowledge; that he had always acted
with them."'''
m~ Dr. de Graffe.vried will com
teaching in the Methodist Church o
day. We f rust this amiable and* i
plished gentleman will receive
encouragement and support which
educational acquir-iireats and fitness lor
position which he has assumed justly de-
mand. He will deliver an address

Mr. W. G. Yates, the Blind Tea-cher.
The other evening we were strolling by the
"Globe Hotel,"and hearing a "concord of
sweet sounds," we stepped in to have the
soul refreshed awhile with music. Mr.
Yates, the blind teacher, was playing
sotn*ofi his favorite- pieces- on the piano.
We were delighted with his seléction of
pieces, as well as his performance of them.
Mr. Yates, although blind, executes the
mest difficult pieoes with ease and elegance.
His has also the talént to impart his musi-
cal information to his pupils, who are
learning rapidly under his tuition. At
first it was thought that, owing to his
blindness, he would not be able to give
instructions to muoh advantage, but expe-
rience has shown to tho contrary, and his
pupils learn with greater facility than is
usually the case. Mr. Yates' gentlemanly
deportment since he has been among us
has won for him the esteem of ail, and he
has many friends here. His talents and
qualifications well fit him for a position in
Committed.—The Dallas Ilerald says
that a Mr. Davis was brought down from
McKinney, on the 1st inst., in charge of
the Sheriff of Collin conntv, and commit-
ted to jail in default of paying a fine of
$225, assessed by a jury against him ibr
an aggravated assauh and battery, on two
voung ladies. He has since paid the fine
and costs, and been discharged from eus-
todj.
J5F* The Crockett Argus is still trou-
bled with that " vagrants*' question. When
the editor asserted that Bell would get
only a few vagrants' votes in that county,
he was not aware of their numbers. The
editor had better acknowledge at once
that he was mistaken, and in fact did. not
mean what he said. People do say whit
thev don't mean sometime?.
My first to tho above extract from Mr.
Ilarcourt'e Circular will be a copy of ray
" confidentialv letter to Mr. Irwin, with a
certificate as to Its being a literal copy.
There is not a word in it that I am ashamed
of, and hence I give it entire. This is
proper also that all may see every word
+ 'written and judge between me and Mr.
Ílíárcourt accordingly. It is in the follow-
Í language:
La Grange, Oct. 12, 1858.
A. InwiN,' Esq.—Dear yl¿fx.—Iíarcotírt
is actually in the field fur Judge of this
District, and though he sustained Buckley
against the attacks en him and openly
advocated his causp, he now comes out and
says, to our astonishment, that he did not
vote for him, and actually wrote so to
Columbus.
George W. Smith is also in the field, and
I bespeak for him your hearty support.
In my judgment, he is the beBt qualified
man in the District for the office, and
against his habits and character not a word
¿¡an be said. Smith ran against Bell before,
and would have beaten him if a false report
had not been circulated that lie was a
Know-Nothing. Galveston ceunty was
then m the District and Smith went down
to be there on the day ef election ;• and
while there, certain influential members of
the K. N. party told him if he,would join
the Council he would carry the whole
Know-Nothing vote, and offered to carry

JÜ3T The editor of the Leíger con el n dL
his article on ""Texas aud' her Resource ""
It is an inexhaustible theme, and the editor
handles it well.
Yellow Fever.—Tfie News regrejs fo
say there is yet' no decrease in tlie Yelbw
Fever. We presume the frost on Tlnrs-
and do not aspire to be—neither ask or
desire any offiée—but Mr. narcourt was
my leader into a Know Nothing Council,
and made the best speech to me and' others
I ever heard hivi make, at my baptism int•
that Order.
In conclusion, I challenge Mr. Harcourt
*o find a single friend of Mr. Smith in this
county who has ever electioneered for him
as a Know Nothing.
It remains to be ssen how Mr. Harcourt
can justify himself to you, fellow-citizens,
for the groundless and unjust attack he
r¡as made upon me, and also how he can
justify himself for appealing to party spirit,
when Mr. Smith is running and being run
by his friends as a no party candidate.

Webb had written me n- letter tellivg me
to remember " thai they (ihe Know-Noth-
ings) had beaten Col. Dancy, and if they
could beat Harcourt^'the Democratic party

ivas a Know-Nothing at heart to his certain
re i frnoictedae" or iltkat he had always acted

ter stated that he was President of the
Democrats, but could never have stated the
other, as Mr. Webb had written me that
Smith was not a Know-Nothing' and his
letter states no such things as those (certify

This institution is now open for the re-

the parents and guardians of deaf mute
children throughout our State, the impor-
tance of availing themselves of the oppor-
tunity of having their children educated.
It is a State Institution, and we have no
doubt will be liberally supported by the
Legislature, and, we trust, will in time
besóme one of the best Institutions of the
kind in our country.
There are now twenty-one pupils enjoy-
ing its benefits, and their cheerfni and
healthful appearance, their bright, intelli-
gent countenances, would convince the
most skeptical of the necessity and advan-
tage of such an Institution.
