Senator Maxejr Inspects the Harbor

of Colonel Mansfield's Operations.
Yesterday morninr Senator S. B. Maxey, accom-
panied by Mr. J. H. Hatchings and Hans. James B.
Stubbs aud H. J. Labatt and a News reporter, vis-
ited the offloe of Colonel Mwisfleld, engineer in
ckarfe of the harbor improvements on the Texas
coast, for the purpose of obtaining information as
to the progress of tt^s work. About an hour was
bpeut in eiajnins maps and charts and hear-
ing explanations bf Colonel Mansfield of
t£re plans ana objects of the various

companied W Col- Mansfield, Mr. Riply, assistant

struction, started on a tour of inspection of tne
harbor improvements. The platform opposite

in* fliem into the water was fully explained and
'lflea, and after wards tl
were examined and the

at wail were examined and the process of sinking
the mattresses witnessed. Gen. Maxey manetestea
a deep isterestin the matter and being himself an
engineer readily undentw»od the work as it was ex-
plained to him. Colonel Mansfield stated that he
had covered up to this time about 8000 feet of the
1AOOO feet necessary to complete the jetty wall to
file outer edge of the bar, and that if he could ret

flicting a painful wound. He was taken home on a
dray,, whither medical aid was summoned.
the bar and the deepening of
the necessity of the north wall. Four mattresses
were sunk yesterday, two of them while General
Maxey and party were present. The sea
was rather rough and there was a
soaroity of labor, being the day after the
Fourth of July, so that the work was not done as
rapidly as it ordinarily is when there is a smooth
sea and plenty of labor. The mattregsos were first
towed into position and held there by two barges,
one on either side, until it was in the exact posi-
tion in which it was to be sunk, and then it was
covered with stone and allowed to settle down.
These mattresses are thirty feet wide
by ninety-five feet long, and where the
base is now being laid, in ten feet of water,
they are being put down three abreast, giving
a bsee of ninety feet. General Maxey questioned
Colon*! Mansfield closely on several points, among
whioh was the permanenoy of the work. He asked
if there was not a probability of an under-current
which would wash out the sapd and undermine the
mattresses. Colonel Mansfleld replied that there
would certainly be an under-current which would
wasa out and undermine if the mattresses were
of aa unyielding nature, but that from their
very flexibility thev would bend in such a
way as to accommodate themselves to the surface
smd prevent any undermining. General Maxey
asked how he would prevent the water from wash-
ing out between the ends of the mattress and thus
cause numerous outlets through the jetty wall.
Colonel Mansfleld explained that this had been
provided against by the manner of laying the
mattresses, just as a brick wall is laid with all the
joints broken. A geod many questions were asked
about the currents and the mode of restraining
and concentrating them all in one channel, to
all of whieh questions answers were given that
eared perfectly plain and satisfactory. The ten-
fly of the current is to scatter over a great deal
of space, and thereby lose its force. Bf the con-
struction of this wail, the current Is caught, and
following the wall strikes the bar at the outer edge
with full force and, aided by the north winds, must
sweep everything before and make an open chan-
nel to the deep water of the Gulf. After returning
to the city, a News reporter asked General Maxey
what impression he had formed of Colonel Mans-
field's operations. He replied: " Think his plan per-
fectly feasible and practicable, and I don't see
why" the results should not be satisfactory.
Col. Mansfleld is thoroughly conversant with his
work, which he is evidently conducting on scien-
tific principles, and he is so entirely confident that
one could scarcely doubt after seeing and under-
standing his plan of operations. His reputation as
an engineer is at stake and he could not afford to
fail. His plan has the entire approval of the board
of engineers and I will say this much more for
him that General Wright told me himself, when I
spoke with him on this deep-water subject, 'You
have the best man iu Col. Mansfield that we have
to give you.'"
" You think, from what you have seeD, that he
will succeed in securing deep water in the Galves-
ton harbor? " asked the reporter.
"I think," said General Maxey, "that the plan
adopted is feasible, and that if this does not suc-
ceed I can not see what other plan could." Gen-
eral Maxey then reviewed at some length the char-
acter of the work, and gave his reasons for be-
lieving that Colonel Mansfleld would succeed. He
also referred to the work at Aransas Pass and
Brownsville, and said he had no doubt that this
work, in which he had taken a deep interest, would
prove to be thoroughly successful. As to some
other points on the coast, he said he had not had
time to make a thorough examination, but he felt
very well satisfied as to the improvements men-
tioned. _
Interstate Regatta.
At a meeting of the Galveston Rowing Club Sun-
day it was determined that an interstate regatta
should be arranged to take place on tbe 23d in-
stant, in which crews from all parts of the State
will be invited to participate. There will be a
frand six-oared barge race and one four-oared
arge r&ce, in which it is expected the celebrated
Hope erew, of New Orleans, will participate, and
several single and double scull senior and junior
races. The prizes will be very fine and costly, and
the club agree to pay all the expenses of some one
New Orleans club that will attend. The place has
not as yes been selected, but the location will
bs either Highland bayou or on the beach imme-
diately in front of the Pavilion. Tbe Pavilion has
been tendered free to tliem in which to give a ball
after the races in case they row the races at the
foot of Center street, and the railroad company
will offer several very handsome and costly prizes.
At present it is doubted whether the races can be
run in the Gulf, but Mr. Crotty told a News re-
porter that he had on various occasions rowed
several times in the gulf, and admired it as a course
more than the bay.
Badly Beaten.
Yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock Pete Chris-
tian and Dan Phillips became involved in a difficul-
ty at the former's saloon on Central Wharf. An
affidavit was made against Christian, and he was
arrested. He will have a hearing before the Re-
corder this morning.

JToseph Rosenfield's Mad Wife.
The following account from New York Truth of
an interesting contest over an interesting will be-
fore the Surrogate of New York City, will be read
with interest by citizens here, where the deceased
resided for some time and was well known:
No little interest is felt in Jewish circles in New
York City concerning the result of a contest over
the will of the late Joseph Rosenfield, otherwise
known here as Uncle Joe. The case came up before
Surrogate Calvin, June 2S. and was argued for the
contestants by ex-Recorder Smith, having associ-
ated with him Morris Wise and J. K. Furlong. The
defense was conducted by ex-Judge Cardozo aud
Counselor Russell.
The details of the case are sufficiently unusual to
be interesting. The evidence adduced from a num-
ber of witnesses shows that, the deceased, Joseph
Rosenfield, after being married since 184S, had nis
wife who was at oneiimethe most beautiful woman
in New Orleans, committed to the Insane Asylum
on Blackwell's Island, as a common pauper. This
occuued iu 1861.
At this time Rosenfield was worth something like
5100,000, but despite this fact he allowed his wife
to remain at the institution on Blackwell's Island,
an associate of the pauper mad, receiving no more
attention thau if she had been the wife of the most
poverty-stricken man. Rosenfield never visited
her, and exhibited no more interest in her welfare
than if she had been the veriest stranger to him,
although she was the mother of his three children,
two sons and a daughter. Sarah, the wife of Mr.
W. H. Rosenfield. and Morris and Alexander.
In 1867 a committee was appointed to see to the
mad woman's welfare, and Rosenfield signed to
north texas.

[Special Correspondence of The News.]
Dallas, July 3,1831.—At the hour of writ-
ing this the assassination of President Garfield
is on every tongue. Little else is thought or
spoken of upon the flags, at the clubs or around
the family board. Everyone retired last night
expecting the morning papers to announce his
death. Nothing later than a dispatch dated at
1 p. m. was published and that said he was ral-
lying. Physicians were consulted and they
generally said he had a fair chance to recover.
There is one or two striking features in the
conversation of the people in regard to this
tragic event. There is a unanimous regret ex-
pressed afc the occurrence, and secondly, they
would not exchange one Garfield for a
shipload of Arthurs. Republicans and
Democrats alike join in expressions of con-
speak of as a little

late firm of S. & M. Rosenfield, who is charged
by the contestants with colluding with Rosenfield
to keep the mad woman in the pauper institution.
In this they succeeded, for Mrs. Rosenfield is still
on the Island.
In 1874 the case assumed a new phase, in the
shape of a divorce proceeding instituted by Rosen-
field against his wife, on the ground that she was a
lunatic when he married her. But this was too
palpable a lie, for besides there being no Droof of
the fact, Rosenfield had lived with her many years
and she had borne him three children, who were
now grown to maturity.
The answer made in the divorce proceedings was
a counter suit for divorce on behalf of the wife,
charging Rosenfield with adultery. He made no
denial of this charge, and the Supreme Court dis-
solved the marriage. The present contestants of
the will claim that this was but the result of a col-
lusion between the deceased and the guardian, to
get rid of Mrs. Rosenfield in order thather husband
might marry another.
The true cause of all this divorce proceeding, it
is claimed, was a buxom servant girl, Rosa Loew-
enthal by name, who was in the employ of Rosen-
field. Morris Rosenfield, a son of Joseph, says that
he had been making love to Rosa himself, but that
his father became attracted by her, and after that
he had no show at all.
Certainly old Rosenfield became highly enamored
of the blooming Rosa and she bore him one child
before the divorce was obtained from the mad
woman. This divorce was obtained on April 1, 1875.
Five days afterward Joseph Rosenfield and Rosa
Loewenthal crossed over into New Jersey and were
made man and wife by a Justice of the Peace. Mr.
Morris Rosenfield, who had previously been warned
to keep away from the paternal domicile, now re-
ceived a double warning.
All this time the legitimate Mra. Rosenfield was
confined in the pauper madhouse, receiving not
cne cent of the provision that had been made for
her, her former servant now reveling in the wealth
that had been hers. The second Mrs. Rosenfield
bore her husband four more children, and then
Rosenfield died. In the will that was left it was
found tfcat he had left everything he possessed to
Rosa having cut off his three legitimate children
without a cent, and having made no provision for
his mad wife.
The will was, of course, contested, the contestant
claiming that the mad woman had a right of dower
and also a claim upon the personalty of the de-
ceased, on account of the misappropriation of the
funds, which should have been used to support her
in all the years she was confin»4 with the crazy
paupers. The surrogate reserved his decision and
postponed the matter until September 15. The
second Mrs. Rosenfield was in court, as were also
the children by the first wife, who still remains on
ulackwell's liand.

brained fop, with no force of character and
no ambition not subservient to Roscoe Conk-
ling. The idea of such a puppet sitting in the
chair of Washington, Jackson and Abe Lincoln
is repulsive to men of all parties. Republicans
and Democrats all say that if this happens
Conkling will be the President in fact, and
Conkling in turn will be ruled by Grant. And.
again, all are congratulating themselves that
the assassin was not from the South. "Thank
God! he is from Chicago. And he also seems
to belong to or have some intimate relations
with the Inter-Ocean, office. Thev can not lay
the crime upon the South, which I feared when
I first heard the news," said a prominent Re-
publican to me this morning.
" Do you suspect that the plot may be traced
eventually to the Chicago Inter-Ocean office?"
" I don't know. It may. That paper is noth-
ing if not vindictive. It hates President Gar-
field and is blindly infatuated with Grant and
Conkling. Its teachings are at least well calcu-
lated to arouse an assassin spirit in a weak-
minded, half crazy man such as Guitteau saems
to be. But I hope the President will recover and
spare the country what I fear will be direful
consequences in the event of a change from a
national to a purely sectional administration,
and that only with a faction following."
But no portion Of this community received
the news with more deep or sincere regret than
commercial men.
They said the country is prosperous, trade
better than they ever knew it, money easy, in-
ternal improvements, especially in Texas, at
the highest point, peace and plenty abound in
the land, and they therefore wanted no change
in the Government, for none could scarcely oc-
cur which would not be for the worse. The
men engaged in commerce in our land
are always conservative and always
dread an election or the meeting of
Congress and the Legislature. They
never feel so easy as when neither is on hand.
They certainly want no new administration
nor new laws at this time. But aside from all
this there is a genuine expression of horror
upon every hand at assassination. It is the
crime of tbe coward, the villain and the luna-
tic, and whilst it can not even be justified in
Russia, has no excuse in America, or even an
approach to one.
In commenting upon the event a prominent
merchant remarked:
And so you think the death of Garfield
would make Conkling virtually President? I
am afraid that man is no friend of Texas. I
read a speech of his last year, in which he
commented with great severity upon our State
—predicting it never would be anything
greater than what it is; that we deserved lio
patronage from the General Government, and
should receive none. His idea was that Texas
was an enemy of the Republican party, and
therefore the Government of the Utaited States
ought, to ostracise it. Such a man as that is
unfit to have a potent voice in the government
of any country, however talented and however
eloquent."
the old politicians
in the habit of figuring out an advantage and
a victory from every circumstance, no matter
how- trivial, are equal to the occasion.
" You see," said one of these, " Garfield's ad-
ministration was popular, and growing in
popularity throughout the whole country. He
refused the bloody shirt wing of his party and
let the South alone. That faction has little
strength, even when backed by all the personal
magnetism and aloquence of Conkling, and,

They seem to take a delight in buying every-
thing right here they possibly can, and go
abroad for nothing except iron rails and other
material we can not furnish. And even in
iron they are apparently more eager than the
citizen to-develop mines, and establish rolling-
mills along their lines. One reason for this
is, nearly every contractor and officer has come
to Texas to stay. They are not here tempo-
rarily and for a single mission, but intend,
after they build their roads, to live here, Of)er-

the old settlers is, build factories, make every-
thing you want, and thus keep your money at
home instead of sending it away, where you
will never see it again. And all these North-
ern men are unanimously in favor of unlimited
educational facilities, either at the expense of
the public or by private means in some way,
but without stint.
The merchants of North Texas are even now
doing twice and thrice the business they did
one year ago, and look forward to the future
with the brightest hope. The only apprehen-
sion is political. Old business men can point
out some evil legislation as the foundation and
the real cause of everv financial crash that
ever took place in the iTnited States. Thus,
the destruction of tbe United State*
Bank and the reduction of all
currency to a specie basis by General Jackson
lad to the crash of 1837; the repeal of the Mis-
souri Compromise brought about the crisis of
1857. as did the acts of Congress making war
bond*:, payable in gold precipite the great
panic of 1ST3. And hence their constant peti-
tion to let the existing commercial and finan-
cial laws and regulations alone. They will, if
bad, more quickly right themselves
than "if altered or touched by the
mast cunning political hand. They look
at Washington aud Austin, and respond to the
exclamation of Peter thp Great when he visited
Westminster: "Why so many lawyers? I
havn't but one in all Russia, and I intend to
hang him when I get home."
Perhaps it would be the truest economy in
this Republic to detail more merchants and
fewer legal men to take care of its legislation.
SPEAKISO OF LAWYERS.
The profession is crowded to suS^catinn in
this division of the State. There are over sev-
enty upon the rolls of Dallas, and it by no
means a larg9 city, nor one overly given to
litigation. How they all live is a question so
intricate it will have to be decided by a higher
and very full and very smart court.
Whilst there are millions of rich
and virgin acres just placed in railway com-
tounicatlon with the balance of the world,
and «awaiting to make the immigrant happy

and cities are filled with young and old men
trying to make a living by their w its.
To the farmer immigrant, with enough
means to get a start—to raise one crop—North
Texas is the finest country now open to him

To populate Texas will be an absolute neces-

POLITICAL POINTS.
Editorial Expressions from Leading
Papers.
[Globe Democrat.]
Conkling thus far maintains a very good ap-
pearance in the fierce light that beats upon a
bribery investigation. Whatever his faults
may be he seems to stand the ordeal of inquiry
into his personal honesty very well. Fourteen
years in the Senate, and not identified with a
single job or swindle of any kind. This is a
good deal in these degenerate days.
[Globe-Democrat.]
" There are said to be faint indications of a
Logan boom for 1884 in Illinois. We feel war-
ranted in saying that Logan, if elected, would
not commence his administration by pounding
the men who helped to elect him." Undoubt-
edly not. There isn't a politician in this poli-
tician-governed republic who has a better rep-
utation for standing by his friends and punish-
ing his enemies than this same Logan.
[Springfield Republican.!
" The question whether Senator Hals will
succeed in turning out Collector Smith, of
Bangor, because ' his office is wanted for politi-
cal reasons,' is a serious one for the President
to settle. Boss Hale is reported to have an-
swered remonstrants against General Smith's
removal that ' it will do no good to talk about
it; I have made up my mind.' Mr. Garfield
objected to the Conkling dictatorship in New
York: will he be equally sensitive to the as-
sumption of power by Mr. Blaine's young man
in Maine?" The President evidently won't
tolerate any suggestions from the Republican.
Collector Smith is turned out.
(New York Mail ]
If great interests were not periled by the
steadiness with which Mr. Conkling holds his
forces together, the suddenness with which men
who were ready to exercise their own reasonand
freedom abandoned both, on his return to his
servants, would l»e a fertile theme for ridicule.
Nothing like such an exhibition has been seen
in recent politics. No question of fidelity to
party principle is involved, for Mr. Conk-
ling ceased to represent any party principle
when he left his party in a minority in the
Senate. No question of adherence to convic-
tions is involved, for the majority of Mr.
Conkling's followers in the Legislature are
convinced that his contest is futile, and can
only lead to the election of two Democratic
Senators, if kept up long enough. They con-
demn his course in resigning; they fear the
wrath of their constituents; they would be
the happiest men in Albany if their master
would give them leave to vote for some Re-
publican who couid be elected. Yet they
cower and shrink aud submit as soon as Mr.
Conkling has them in his lordly presence.
[Boston Journal.l
If Mr. Conkling was ever a stalwart, he
ceased to be one when he resigned, and thereby
turned the Senate over to the Democrats. No
strong, well-balanced man, such as a stalwart
should be, will ever betray party interests
or party principles. By resigning he
involved his own party in New York
in a bitter and entirely needless quarrel.
No real stalwart would have done this.
When he became a candidate for the purpose
of vindication and received less than one-third
of the Republican vote in the Legislature, he
is no longer a stalwart, as the stalwart in ail
snch matters will refuse to lead and inspire a
faction. If Mr. Conkling was in reality a stal-
wart, a conscientious and zealous advocate of
Republican ideas, he would have left the Re-
publicans who support kim to vote in a man-
ner to fill the senatorial vacancies, and the
growing discord in the party, and restore to
the Republicans in the Senate the two votes he
took away from them when he and Mr. Piatt
resigned.

Texas and St. Loals Railroad.
The construction of this important narrow
gauge from Texarkana to Cairo disturbs some-
what the calculations of St. Louis. The Rail-
way Register has the following on the subject:
We were compelled last week to speak of the
probable baneful results of the extension of the
Texas and St. Louis to the Mississippi river.
There has been a great deal of congratulatory
talk indulged in about the grand narrow gauge
system of the Southwest, and glowing pictures
are presented of the influence of the narrow
gauge lines extending from Cincinnati
and Toledo to St. Louis and the
great Southwest. According to these state-
ments the Cairo and St. Louis was to
be the connecting link between the Toledo,
Delphos and Burlington, wheu completed to
East St. Louis, and the Para more road when
finished to Bird's Point. As we stated before,
there are a few facts which throw doubts upon
this scheme. In the first place, it is probable
that the Toledo, Delphos and Burlington ex-
tension from Kokomo here will be of standard
gauge, or if it is not built of this width, that it
will soon be widened so as to correspond
with other lines. In the next place,
the broad Mississippi would have to be
crossed twice in order to bring freights into this
city. It is not at all likely that if cotton gets
to Cairo enoe, where short direct New York
lines can bid for its transportation, that it will
ever be brought across the river the second
time to St. Louis, for the rate is the same from
Cairo to New York as from East St. Louis to
New York. It is more reasonable to believe
that it will not. Then how can a narrow-
gauge road ever bring its tracks into
the city over the bridge, or if it de-
pends upon the ferry, haw can it compete
with rival roads which have every conveni-
ence for handling freight without delays?
Although Mr. Paramore and associates may
have done much to build up the cotton trade
of St. Louis, the owners are not going to be
so blind to their own interest as to lose
money in the effort to help any city at
their" own expense. They are all like
other men, not apt to be philanthropic
on so extensive a scale. They must have
monay to pay the interest on their stock and
bonds, to run their road and pay salaries. If
thev can make more money by sending cotton
to New Yorkand Eastern cities at the expense
of St. Louis, they will surely do it. Those
men are wise who foresee the evil and guard
against it, and in this instance forewarned is
forearmed. The future will show that we are
right in our conclusions, in spite of all that is
said to the contrary.
EAI2.ROA /> NEWS.
Mexico is still booming. It requires a good
deal of space in the Diario Oficial simply to
name the numerous lines contemplated and in
course of construction. Work has commenced
on the Acapulco and Morales Railroad. A rail-
road is projected from Campeche to Kalkini.
The Tehuantepec road is being pushed. The
Sonora road is completed half way from Guay-
mas to Hermosillo. Twelve thousand men are
employed on the road between the City of Mex-
ico and Toluca. A force of 12,157 men is
working on the road between the City of Mex-
ico and San Juan del Rio. A railroad is to be
built from Celayo to Salamanca, in the State
of Guanajuato. Work was commenced May
5, at Mauzanillo, on the Mexican National
Railroad. The Mexican Government has
promptly paid its subvention due on the first
section of the Sonora Railroad. The Altata
and Culiacan road is in process of construc-
tion in Sinaloa. Altogether, the Diario esti-
mates that more than 50,000 men are employed

Mexican States.
It is certainly time for the medical profes-
sion to protect itself against imposters. In a

the republican pactions.
There are in Dallas, as everywhere else in
Texas, two factions of the Republican part;
the outs and the ins. The ins are led by Judge
Norton. If the outs' have any leader'he is
Postmaster Cochran—either dismissed upon
the request of Norton, or about to be, and
Whissen, a lieutenant of Norton, put in his
place. The outs are a little puzzled to know
whether they are in luck or not. Norton was
a great toast with Grant, managed to hold his
own with Hayes, and stands well with Gar-
field, and, if Arthur becomes President, will,
by virtue of being a stalwart of stalwarts, be
all right with him. Like the'possum of "the
harp of a thousand strings," he is hard to
throw. "Shake one foot loose and tother am
dar. Shake all foot loose and tail am dar.
Shake de tail loose and his teef am dar. Cut
de tree down and he sulp up so you hab too
much pity to let de dogs bite him, and go pick
him up yourself."
The Democrats have never forgiven Norton
for his speeches upon Texas during the last
campaign in Indiana. Ever since his return
"the cold shoulder" has been turned to him,
and he never walks the streets without a curse
being heard upon the lips, or felt in the hearts,
of men of the highest respectability, who
always treated him with civility in social life,
though differing with him in politics. He
could not well expect anything else but resent-
ment for denouncing a whole community and a
whole State as murderers, cut-throats and
assassins; and that, tso, in another State, aud
speaking of a people among whom he lived,
and who really had never harmed a hair of
his head. Few, indeed, would there be to
regret his downfall were he to lose his foot-
hold at Washington, for the man has no friends
beyond this influence.

From the 39th day of May to the 1st of

small, insignificant shower a little north of

nearly every day in May. On the 1st of June
the crops everywhere were buried in grass
full grown and matted in many fields. Labor
was so scarce as high as $1 50 per day was
offered for field hands, and few obtained. For
a moment the planter looked upon his crops in
despair. It was only for a moment, for there
is that in the character of the Texan which

the exception of a few fields too badly tangled
to be extricated, the crops were cleaned out.
But then a drouth was upon them. The mer-
cury went to 96 and 104 every day without a
cloud of the dignity of that which arose on the
prayer of Elijah being seen in the heavens.
Corn began to wither and to die, vegetation
to perish in gardens, and once more there was
a feeling of despair. But on Friday evening
and night last a great wind, rain and electric
storm passed over this and adjoining counties.
A deluge of water was poured out from clouds
all eloquent with lightning and momentarily
illustrated by its flashes.
Never was a blessing more timely. It was
worth millions to the farmers of this end of the
State. The effect upon the corn market was
notable. On Friday morning it was scarce and
held at 50 cents a bushel in the Dallas market.
On Saturday the price fell to 35 cents, with
more sellers than buyers. Plenty will be
raised.
the cotton crop.
It is hard to kill a textile plant. Cotton
flourishes best in the hottest sua. It is alike
impervious to moisture and to drouth. The
year 1879 was drouthy to positively dry. In
1880 it was wet to excess. Both "years full
average cotton crops were raised in North
Texas, and in addition to too much rain in
1880, it was attaoked with unusual virulence
by every fly, worm and insect in its
list of enemies, and still more was
produced than was picked out. The pres-
ent crop has hot so far been injured
from any cause, and is in splendid condition
upon all plantations properly cultivated. Of
course this is not exactly the situation with
those farmers who have planted beyond their
strength and relied upon " the chapter of acci-
dents " to send them assistance at the critical
moment. As the crop now stands, there are
five per cent, more bales in prospect than at
this time last year.
The true situation, then, is: there will be
enough corn and eats, added to the old corn
on hand, to supply the country with an abund-
ance to last until next year. The oat crop is
the heaviest harvested in twenty years. And
it should be marked down by "scientific farm-
ers " that every bushel was sown in the spring.
The hay crop is also an extraordinary one, as is
proved by its going begging in the Dallas
market at $6 and $7 per ton. Veg-
etables of every kind under the sun
have been abundant and cheap through-
ought the whole season and are now. The only
things short are apples and peaches. Added
to their being almost a total failure, thev
are wretchedly small and poor in quality. To
sum up, dismissing the sayings of those men
who are always grumbling and think they are
ever upon the point of starvation, whose chief
employment is to "fence over the table with
ever present hunger." The season so far has
been a prosperous and successful one, and the

of Teachers from St. Louis to instruct the Texas

term normal schools. These schools are to be
opened at different places in the State, and con-
tinue for a term of six weeks. It is not doubted
that Mr. Hollingsworth is doing a very good thing,
but isn't it a little singular that with all the parade

education in Texas, there should be left a sufficient

The above in your editorial columns sug-

You doubtless recolloct when Dr. Currie, the

wrote to some New York paper that "the
lack of good teachers is one of the strongest
difficulties to be encountered in the South."
Dr. Currie, from his trip over Texas, in at
Houston, via San Antonio, Austin, and out at
Texarkana, occupying in all not over ten days,
learned as much about Texas, and the teach-

after the interest of colored schools endowed
by the liberality and supported by the money
of some half dozen benevolent societies in the
North. During the Doctor's visit he furnished
many xmples of the " South at School," in
which he took no little pleasure in parading
all he saw before his readers, but particularly
the promising outlook of the institutions in
whose interest he was traveling. He has
learned all about not only Texas, but about
the whole South, and now advertises ready
for the boards, platform or pulpits a new lec-
ture.
"the new south at school."
This lecture of course will be first delivered
in the Athens of America; then in the suburban
villas—at the various educational gatherings
at the health resorts—at Fabyan's and other
places ia the White Mountains, where the tired
" igogues of New England resort. The whole
juth, and Texas particularly, will be well ad-
vertised as the Bceotia of our free Republic.
But to rail at this is not the remedy. It is both
undignified and lacking in the proper means
to bring relief. I believe I know Texas as
well as most men. I believe she has as good,
as faithful and as well prepared men and
women for teachers as any State in the Union,
and I believe I have the true solution,
the reason why they are not teachers and fill-
ine the hundreds of schools all over the State.
What is the language of our last school law?
■ Ohe holding a first-grade certificate as teacher
in our public schools shall receive 10 cents per
day each for pupils in attendance until the
sum so paid shall amount to $60 per month; to
one Holding second-grade certificate, 7 cents
per day each for pupils in attendance, until
amounting to $45 per month, and to one hold-
ing third-grade certificate, 5 cents per day each
for pupils in attendance, until amounting to
$30 per month." Now, is it to be expected that
teachers—men and women who have prepared
themselves at great outlay of time and money
and study—will seek such places at such prices?
What daily avocation pays less?
Ttie salesgirl at the oounter and fruit-stand
commands more—receives more. The cowboy,
the herder, gets more. Yes, the boy who
tends the sheep and herds the cattle has a
larger remuneration for his services than the
teacher who is to instruct the children. Come
to the compensation paid by
the soulless corporations,
as they are styled, and from the "engine-
wiper " to the captain of the train, and the re-
muneration is better for those requiring simply
" rude " labor—" skilled " and " highly skilled "
not being needed at all. Go into the offices of our
leading State papers and ask who sits upon the
answer is quondam
teachers, many of them formerly university
professors. Go through the offices of our pros-
perous business houses; aye, into the offices of
our State departments at Austin, into our rail-
road offices in all our cities and the same
answer will meet you: "Man can not live by
bread alone." Nay, but these men and thes'e
women who have been teachers can not so
much as get that bread by teaching
longer. And this will so continue un-
til governors, legislators and parents
'• shall see to it" that the training of the chil-
dren of the State, until the properly educating
and rearing of their own little ones, shall be to
to them of as much concern as the bleating
flocks and lowing herds 1 I do not know who
is responsible for Colonel Hollingsworth's ex-
traordinary action. He is the Secretary of
the Board of Education. He is doubtless their
messenger, and " has been sent" to invoke
these new teachers of these new methods to
come over (or down) and help us.
It was told of the Governor when Professor
Smith then (now Doctor, since his principal-
6hip of the Sam Houston Normal School), that
he voted for Smith to take charge of the Hous-
ton public schools, for the reason that "he
would then have two teachers in the State,"
Professor Malon being the other. But these are
mere side issues. The main question is still
unmet—unprovided for. How shall this bo
provided for? By placing in the Governor's
chair a man who can take care of the money-
bags, and the educational interests besides,
who can spend as much time on preventing the
children from growing up in ignorance and
orntife as he does in examining the petitions
and in finding excuses in circumstances or law
to pardon those who ought to be hung.

July 2, 18S1.
Letter from Erath County.
[To The News.l
Stephensville, July 1, 1S81.—The health
of this section, as is well known, is most gener-
ally good, and, indeed, any one would think
from its altitude above the sea and other favor-
able natural phenomena that it could not be
otherwise. But this year has been an unusual
one in this regard. There has been a great
deal of sickness here, principally with the
children, but it has now subsided to some ex-
tent.
Wheat raised here this season is of a most
excellent quality, and the quantity of yield as
per acre was very satisfactory. My estimate
per acre would be about sixteen bushels on
an average. Some reached as high as twent3"-
one bushels per acre; therefore, this estimate
of the average must not be looked at through
the spectacles of exaggeration. Cotton is most
promising and clear of grass, -weeds and other
cotton-field nuisances. Notwithstanding
crops, -which have been gathered, that is, oats,
millet and wheat, are good and cotton is
thriving, we have a severe drouth upon us
which has very materially injured the crops
of corn. It was only a few weeks ago tHat the
corn was as beautiful as could be, and now the
burning sun and dry earth droop it day after
day, while we look anxiously for the refresh-
ing shower to come to the rescue. However,
if the corn crop is small, which will be the
case, the farmers here have the advantage of
possessing plenty of feed, millet and oats for
their stock and plenty wheat for bread. It
is well known that this county produces with
the richest counties in the State in the com-
mon valuable products of the cultivated soil.
The best omen of further prosperity and
happiness to be seen here is the advancement
of the scholastic operations of the people. And
in connection with this remark it is only jus-
tice to say they are beginning to be awakened
to the fact that teachers of refinement and
solid learning are required, and the time will
come no doubt when all those feigning croak -
ers of claims to erudition will be abandoned.

SBEEP ANT) WOOL.
Cypress Mills correspondence of the Blanco
Star: Blanco county is one of the best to
raise sheep, which yields a great profit if
properly attended to, and the dryer the season
the greater the profit. When there is a great
deal of rain sheep ought to be kept out of it as
much as possible; at least they should be
herded on hills or out of the mud and away
from the water. Sheep must not have too
much water, and never soon after salting,
One of my neighbor^ who is keeping his
sheep in a pasflR-e without being
herded and where they have free
access to water, finds his whole flock diseased ;
three and four are dying daily. Mr. Thos. C.
Wright, a successful wool-grower, says that he
treated his sheep, so diseased, thus: He kept
them away from the water until they were
nearly perishing with thirst, then he made a
strong solution of salt and saltpetre and
alaccd it in the water in troughs where the an-
imals were accustomed to drink and turned
them in. Rushing to their watering-places,
the sheep drank eagerly, and iu a few days
they were sound and well, and his flocks have
never since been troubled with any disease.

Letter from Harrison County.
[To The News.]
Waskom, July 3.—This is a fine trading
point, being about half way between Mar
shajitand Shreveport. The country around it
is thickly settled. The corn crop is badly in-
jured from drouth, but the cotton promises a
good yield. A refreshing rain fell yesterday
evening.
A telegraph line connects this place with
Elys$an Fields and De Berry. This is a private
enterprise of Steele, Furrh & Son, doing busi-
ness at this and the two points named. The
line has already paid for itself.
One of the most striking features of Harri-
son county is the Bermuda grass stock farm of
Captain J. D. Rudd, just three miles south of
here. This farm of 460 acres has 200 acres in
Bermuda grass, and the balance is planted in
corn and small grain. It is kept well watered
in the dry season by tanks. The proprietor is
now devoting his attention almost exclusively
to Jersey oattle. When the fafm was estab-
lished tee imported a variety of stock from
Kentucky—English Berkshire liogs, Southdown
sheep, some well bred fowls, a fine blooded
stailien and mare, -and a lot of Jersey cattle.
