THURSDAY JULY 12 1877
Th- Dajr Celebrate.
Th F.-urth of July 1877 the first
I i p -p'lroce day of the second cen-
tuiy of AiQ'-ricitn nationality wu cel-
e'u iii d in Austin and throughout the
vijv in spirit of brotherly love
and patriotic devotion which has char-
acterized no occasion of the kind since
1861. Business in the city waa almost
entirely suspended; during the after-
noon specially the otreet. were deserted
sad Austin looked like b bad gone
Into bankruptcy ana tbat every
body was locked up inside taking
account of stock. But not so
and tetter" than thia. After the
closing of the exercises at the Cap-
itol and a free indulgence in good
home dinners the exodus ta the country
became general. Some went to Round
Rock on the International to be pros
nt at the celebration there; othera
went fishing up Bull creek and down
the river while the greater number of
those who left the city took themselves
to the tournaments and picnics out on
. Williamson and Onion creeks four and
a half and nine miles south of Austin.
These doings had been gotten up en-
tirely by the people of the country liv
ing over the river and they had in
vited the people of the city through
the columns of the Statesman to j sin
them in the exercises and pleasures of
the day we celebrate the glorious
Fourth of July and of courso the peo
ple of Austin were pleased to respond
in goodly numbers to that invitation.
An occasional mingling of the people
from remote portions of the country
all coming together on the shady banks
of a beautiful stream in sight of fields
cf waving corn and growing cotton
strengthens the tics of society and
tends to open up new avenues of inter
course for pleasure and profit between
the producers and the consumers the
artizaot and the mechanicsall of whom
are equally dependent upon one an
other and interested in government
and society. The celebrations or pic
nics and tournaments on Onion and
Williamson creeks to the credit of the
people who got them up were a sue
cess and those who went out from
town came back smiling and happy
over the incidents of the day.
AT THE CAPITOL.
By 10:80 o'clock a goodly audience
had assembled at Representative Hall
among whom wero many of the State
officers and employees of tho different
departments and numbers of the fair
sex. After prayer by Rev. Dr. 1'hil-
pott and tho reading of the Declara
tion of Independence by Dr. D. Y. C.
Baker the assemblage was addressed
by - several speakers notably Judge
Thomas J. P. (J. Whitehead and Gov
ernor Hubbard. Judge Thomas's
speech treated of the Declarati n of In-
dependence of Texas in particular
and he urged upon the rising genera
tion to venersto the San Jacinto heroes
as we did those who fought in the rev-
olution of 1770. Mr. Whitehead's
speech was a masterly ellurt and
riveted the attention of the entire au-
dience lie spoke of the declaration
as securing to every ono two. blessings
enjoyed no where else "liberty of
speech and a free press." lie eulogized
the" press especially ns tho palladium
of our liberties. Mr. Whitehead's
dclivory was tine showing that he
fully appreciated the old Creek's mot-
to "Action." The address abounded
in fine figures- of speech and bold
flights of iuifgination. When he
closed with that oft-quoted but never
hackneyed stanza "Lives there a man
with soul so dead" etc. a round of
applause went up from the delighted
auditory. Governor Hubbard being
repeatedly called for ho roso in his
placB on the floor and spoke saying
that though he had been invited to
speak by the committee ho had de-
clined but felt impelled to say some-
thing. His remarks though few were
full of the spirit of patriotism. It was
noticeable that Hayes received his en-
dorsement In what he did regarding
Louisiana and South Carolina. In fact
all the speakers wero of the same mind
as the Statksmax upon this point.
The old spirit "The Union one and
indivisible now and forever" took
possession of all and we doubt w heth-
er any Fourth of July was ever cele-
brated in Austin with as much zest as
was this fisst one after the emancipa-
tion of all the States from the shackles
of oppression.
AT nORSKSUOE 11KXD.
he attendance at the picnic and
tournament at "Horseshoe Bend"
was very large some estimating
that fully 400 or more people
were present about fifty of whom or
perhaps more were from the city.
Just at 10 a v. the knights in their
variegated paraphernalia began their
dextrous work of taking oil the rings
from thtir place of banging. The rid-
ing continued for two hours and a half
and tad some of the 'old veritable
knights been on the ground to see the
Texas boys ride they weuld have been
ashamed of the horsemanship of their
day. The katghts rode splendidly
and the honors were hotly contested
for by the chivalrous youths of the
country and their sweethearts (lot ot
coarse each ' young . lady . getting a
crown knew before band what was
coming) stood fixed and amazed at the
prowess of their favorite knights.
At the close of the three rounds
it was found that Messrs. Ed. Moore
and Bell Kolen had tied and conse-
quently had to " play oil" Mr. Moore
winning the first honor and his worthy
ants goo 1st the second.' Messrs. Smith
and II. Miller also tied and had to run
over which resulted la. Mr. Smith
getting the third and Mr. Miller tlie
fourth honor. After the gallant kuihts
had been paraded in front of the crowd
and the result of their chivairy made
known by their captain "VT. S. Wilson
it was announced that immediately af-
ter dinner the crowning of the queen
and htr maids of honor would take
place upon the conclusion of aa ad-
dress by Capt. 6. O. Sneed. The peo-
ple then spread their dinner ia the
ah ads ot some towering pecan trees
and such a dinner we've seldom seen
the equal of. The three or four hun-
dred people oa the ground were all
filled to satiety. After dinner was
over Capt Saeed mounted the rostrum
la behalf of the knights and discoursed
Jwaedly sal cloqaeatlj upon knight
errantry and could the knights
of old have been suddenly resurrected
and brought to Onion creek at that
place they would have concluded that
one of their most loquacious and sa
gacious band bad outstripped them in
the rsce and was actually instructing
band of Texas knights in the chiv-
alry of knighthood as well as enter
taining an admiring audience of Texas
ludies and gentlemen when they ar-
rived. At the conclusion of the
adiireis the following ladies were
crowned: Miss Mary Miller Queen
by Mr. Ed. Moore; Miss Lizzie Wilson
first Maid of Honor by Mr. Bell N'olen
Miss Ada Sneed second Maid of Hon-
or by Mr. Billy Smith and Miss Em-
ma I'.rtle third MsiJ of Honor by
Mr. H. Miller. The queen was the
fairest ol tli land and her maids of
honor wie ditto. They looked lovely
and tweet and were greatly ad-
mired by their respective heroes;
in fact fare seemed to be a
mutual admiration between the
knights and those chosen to wear the
crowns they had gained through the
gallantry anil terrors of knighthood.
After the coronation the young people
(and by the way some of the elderly
nm) indulged freely in the terpsicho-
rean art utitil the shadows began to
;;row very long. The music wss
splendid the band being composed of
one harp and three violins which were
played at intervals through the day.
Leaving the picnic grounds a number
of the young folks repaired to the resi
dence of Mr. W. W. Pnckett and there
tripped the fantastic toe to heart stir
ing music until early in the morning.
ON WILLIAMSON CIIERK-
lwlnpi ucver before has a day been
spent more pleasantly on the shaiy
lovely banks of Williamson creek than
on the Fourth of July this year. The
attendance was not Urge but every-
thing was plensint and agreeable.
About 200 people were there possibly
more late in the afternoon who amused
themselves chatting promenading
under the branches of the beautiful trees
by dancing aid in looking at the gallant
knights contebt for honors. A long
platform had been prepared for dancing
and Hicks's string band was present
and furnishgd good music. There was
an abundance of ice water furnished
gratis to all and nice ice cream was to
be had at a bit a plate. The ladies
too had baskets of good things and
the reporter of the Statesman had the
pleasure f doing a little sampling
among the delicacies provided by Mrs.
Mary West Moore who seemed to take
an especial pride in the picnic and
tournament and in contributing to the
enjoyment of strangers. The dancing
commenced about 2 o'clock and con-
tinued till 7 and the riding for the
rings began about 3:30 and lasted two
hours. The following is the result of
the riding: Wm. Lubbock" 12 rings
time 22 seconds; J. W. Williamson
11 rings time 24 seconds; . D. Mor
ris 7 rings in 20 seconds; Win. Cha
pelt 0 rings in 20 seconds; J. B. Coch-
ran o rings in 15 seconds; II. W. Coch-
rin 4 rings in 20 seconds; A. J. Ter
rill 4 rings in 17 seconds; Henry Ren-
ick u rinrs in 15 seconds.
at rnKssi.KR's.
The attendance at Presslcr's garden
especially after night was quite large
and the enjoyments varied. There
was chatting and beer drinking prom-
enading and dancing world without
eud and about 9:30 there was a beau-
tiful display of firnworks.. The ball
lasted till about 2 o'clock in the morn-
ing and Herzog's band furnished the
mast charming music.
THE COLOllKD PEOPLE
celcbruted by themselves and in their
own sweet way the Fourth of July.
They marched from the city led by
martial music out to Wheeler's grove
whcie they remained during the day.
At night they had a ball in Krohn's
hull ar.d everything with them passed
olT satisfactorily.
Phriwi from Chamberlain's Speech.
Washington July 5. The Presi-
dent's policy if the term is descriptive
is an anomoly and offunse. It savors
of bad faith. It has a native and his-
torical oder of treachery and intrigue.
But fellow citizen' what is the Presi-
dent's Southern policy in point of
physical or external facts. It consists
in withdrawing military forces of the
I'nitea States from tho points in South
Carolina and Louisiana where they bad
been previously stationed for the pro-
tection and support of the lawful gov-
ernments of those States. In point of
immediate foreseen and intended con-
sequence it consists in the overthrow
an ! destruction of those State govern-
ments and the substitution instead of
certain other organizations called State
governments. In p int of actual pres-
ent results it consists in the abandon-
ment of Southern Republicans and
especially the c ilored race to the con-
trol and rule not only of the Demo;
cratic party but of that class in the
South which regarded slavery as a
divine institution which wage!
four years of destructive war for
its perpetuation which steadily op-
posed citizenship and suffrage for the
negro in a word a class whose tradi-
tions principles and history are op-
posed to every step and feature of what
Republicans call our national progress
since 1SC0. In point of general politi-
cal and moral significance in consists
in a proclamation to the country and
the world tbat the will of the majority
of the voters of a State lawfully and
regularly expressed la no ' loogur the
ruling power in our States and that
the constitutional guarantee to every
State in this Union of a republican
form of government and of protection
against domestic violence is henceforth
ineffectual and worthless. I could
frame an excuse for Buchanan. He
was the decaying fruit of a century of
Northern subservience to Southern dic-
tation the poor dregs of a worn-out
politician whose life bad been spent in
cowering aabrniesion to the will of
those whom Haves is new called upon
to confront. H it what shall be. said of
this President educated by the events
of the last seventeen years the long
and perilous st nggle to save the ns
tion to justice and freedom and the
lepreswntative of a party who
lite ai.d insuir&tion in every hour of
it txV.ei.ce has been political justice
ami tieiduai for all American cit.ze-nt
wb had literally to climb to bis high
scat over the ieitd bodies of hundred
of loyal nua m Louisiana who met
deaths in forms far more terrible than
any battle field in order that the lib-
erty which tny had tasted might be
kept for their children. James Bu-
chanan could say he negotiated with
those who were ia anna against the
United States in order that he might
by peaceful agencies preserve the in-
tegrity ot the Colon and avert a fratit
cidal war. This President enters apoo
bis negotiations with those who are in
arms against the lawful government of
Louisiana la order that he might the
mora surely betray the triads who
trusted him and because ha was sworn
to uphold them.
Now fellow-citizens I exercise the
right of aa Americaa citiaea ao more
when I taj that a rtxlew of this chap
ter in our history leaves no doubt tbat
the real purpose of the Louisiana com-
mission and of the whole conduct of
the Louisiana case by the 1'resident
was to accomplish the overthrow of
Governor Packard and his authority.
Called upon under the Constitution and
lsws of the country as its chief execu-
tive to discharge a grave public duty ;
a duty essential both to tne mainten-
ance of the life of a great State ; a duty
equally essential to the maintenance of
human rights and the principles of the
political party which had elected him
the President not only declines the
duty but be stabs the State that sought
bis aid and betrays the principles aaa
men whom he was bound to uphold and
protect.
Th( Ola WorldL
O'Donovan Rossa is still drawing the
hard earned savinet cf poor Irishmen
into his own pockets at the rate of
bout $1000 a week for the nominal
ouroose of Drovidine a "skirmishing
fund" with which to begin new Fenian
operations. And still he is not happy
but calls for more.
It is said that a five-year-aid girl
named Gemma C'unibsrti is a star at
oae of the Florentine theaters. She is
lovely and plays iiiarvelously walking
the stage with as mucn freedom as 11
she had trod it all her life. Poets have
written verses in her honor the wife of
Salvini the tragedian made her a gift
of a precious necklace and the Prin
cess Koyal Marglierita expressed her
appreciation in a beautiful and valua-
ble present. Cavaliere Rossi the
tragedian predicts for her a splendid
career and that she will improve with
age until she becomes the greatest ac
tress the world has ever seen.
Prince Louis Napoleon is still one of
the most indefatigable of students. He
is now reading hard with a tutor very
distinguished in France. What most
occupies the Prince's attention U avanb-
jttct with which tie naturally desires to
be well acquainted the political duties
of the provincial prefects. His friends
complain that the Prince does not take
sufficient exercise anL- goes too little
into society. I; is no 6ccret that the
Empress is very anxious to see ber son
h a Tied before he passes his twenty
8cond year. The Madrilenes have
made up their minds that his Imperial
Highness is to marry the daughter of
Queen Isabella. The truth however
is tbat the selection of a wife for the
heir of the Bonapartes is a very diffi
cult business indeed and tbat at pres-
ent at all events the Prince devotes
much more time to reading than to
love-making.
Three men well known in London
all members of the new Orleans Club
and all bachelors wished to promote
an impromptu entertainment in honor
of their new establishment and for their
own special delectation. They agreed
that the number of guests should be
nine as a maximum reducible as far
as circumstances might allow to a
mimimu.m of six. They were each to
ask the married lady of their acquain -tance
who came nearest to their ideal of
what was most charming; the only
limitation being the club rule that such
ladies were to be "in general society."
The husbands were not necessarily ex-
cluded but if otherwise engaged so
much the better. The dinner was to
take place on the following day so that
there was no time for comparing notes;
but each man thought he was sure of
an acceptance. The day came but the
three men dined alone. Ech had beeu
refused and curiously enough each
had received the same excuse viz: that
the husband had a sudden attack of
bronchitis and that etc. - It was of
course soon discovered that they had
each asked the same person who curi-
ously enough was both truthful and
husband-loving.

No. 2507 Cayton Erhard et al. v. Mrs.
Asselinc Hearne tt al. Opinion by
A. g. Walker Bp'l J.
Without determining whether the
elder title is extinguished or that the
matured junior titlo may or may not
be abandoned so that the holder of
the elder title on regaining his posses-
sion or in a contest with one not in
privity with the junior title would have
his rights unaffected we do decide that
the exemption from suit given by the
tiiteenih section of the statute of limi-
tations can be pleaded as a defense by
ore in possession in privity of estate
though with disconnecied possession
with one who had such three years'
possession under the statute.
The judgment therefore is affirmed.
Elliott's executor v. Mitchel admin-
istrator; appeal from Navarro.
Opinion by C. S. West Special
Justice
1. The proper mode of running the
lines of Burnett's colony is laid down
in the case of Elliott v. Mitchel 28
Texas p. 109.
2. The original title to the land in
controversy waa on tile in the General
Land Office. The officer whose duty
it was to delineate the surveys on the
proper maps of the ciunty 'failed to
do so. Ut bl that su h fiilure cannot
prejudice the rights of the owner.
3. A party in possession of land un-
der a bond for title whether he has
paid the purchase money or not can
plead the statute of limitations as
against all persons save the party from
whom he purchased it.
4. An interval of one month from
the time the land was vacated until
the party who purchased it took pos-
session cannot be construed into an
abandonment of the possession so as
to create a hiatus in the running of the
statute of limitations. Such temporary
vacation frequently results from a
change of owners.
Affirmed.
Opening Scene of the War.
The review of the Russian troops at
KischeatfT on April 24 lasted nearly
an honr and was over at half-past
eleven. - When the music ceased the
soldiers took ( IT their csps and the
great throng of spectators on the hill-
side stood with heads uncovered while
the bishop of Kischentff recited a grand
military mass. A murmur ran through
the crowd ; there was a dead silence
for an instant; then a clear strong
rolce broke the stillness; the bishop
was reading the imperial manifesto;
war with the Turks wu being declared.
Before the bishop had finished reading
the manifesto sobs were heard and
people who were looking about saw
that the Czar waa weeping like a child ;
and when they perceived how much he
was affected by it there was not a dry
eye within the range of the reader's
voice. Then there went up a wild acd
universal shout a shout of exultation
of triumph and relief as though a great
weight of suspense were lifted from the
heart of the multitude. It spread
through the army and was taken up by
the crowd outside and repeated over
and over agin until the very sky was
fclljof it. The soldiers tossed their
cape high in the air and caught tbem
oj their bayonets and twirled them
round and round shouting and yelling
as though they would burst their
throats. When silence was restored the
bishop addressed the army the order
of the Grand Duke Nicholas was read
to every battalion squadron and bat-
tery and without a moment's pause a
portion oPthe army set ont for the fron-
tier while the rest made rapid prepara-
tions for the mrcn. This was the
opening scene of the war aa described
by a correspondent of the London
press. J I

It teems hardly credible yet a ao
less experienced and careful observer
than Erastns Brooks is authority for
the statement that the sale of newsps
ders in the streets by newsboys waa
substantially unknown until the sum
mer of 1848 the initial occasion Deing
Mr. Webster's celebrated Mansfield
speech in which be declared thU the
"nomination ol uen. layiorior me
presidency was one not fit to be made."
This was regarded as an affair of such
Dubuc moment at tne time tnat it was
carried up to Boston by special ex
press and printed in tne lormot an ex-
tra which Mr. Brooks tells us "was
sold in the streets with a zeal and
bought with a zest never excelled
since." The next piece of startling
news was the flight of Louis Phillippe
from France which also brought out
the newsboys with their startling cry
and since then thev have become near
ly as much one of the institutions of
fie times as the daily paper itself. In
deed some of the sbrewdi st and most
successful business men in the coun
try owe their success in life to the
schooling received in the sale of news
papers.
A letter writer ssys that it seems
generally conceded by the politicians
that if the obiect ot the remarkable
Democratic demonstration on behalf
of Messrs Tilden and Hendricks was to
somehow publicly commit the party in
New York to having them as the
standard-bearers in the presidential
campaign of 1880 it was not a success
According to the best information at
tainable the anticipation was that
seme one in the enthusiasm of the mo
ment after Mr. Tilden'a speech
should propose to name him as the
next president and that the propoki
tion should be carried out by acclama-
tion ; but for some reason or other this
important part of the programme
failed either through the incompeten
cy or treachery of those to whom its
execution wps entrusted.
Parson Newman lectured at Wash
iegton last Sunday evening and during
the discourse introduced a prophecy of
