—Mme. Pdppenheim was careful not
to drop a note to her creditors before

—Wonder if the murdeier Blaisins

cause he had a bad name.
—Congress seems to have made more
progress in reducing the armory than

—After reading Key's letter Hayes
grinned and told Key he might risk
paying his hou3e rent in advance from
now on.
—Potter says Hayes is not going to

—Whenever the frontier barbers find
business dull they start a rumor that
Sitting Bull is coming over the border

—There it is again. Bergh has had
man arrested for docking a mare's tail,
but where the mayor clocks the salaries

—The German government is at a loss
how to discourage the Socialists. Send
a lot of little girls around among them
selling tickets for a church festival at a
dollar a ticket.
—It is now thought that the man
who peppered the emperor William is
insane. His failure to take a pop with
the second barrel at an insurance agent
within easy reach, is what creates
doubts as to the poor man's sanity.
—The Mexican Two Republics siys
the Lerdo revolutionists are made up

The McKinney Enquirer condemns the prac-
tice of giving the advertisements of munici-
pal corporations to the paper which will do it
for the least price, without regard to circula-
tion. The Enquirer says:
No sensible business man ever lets his ad-
vertising out in this way; but makes his con-
tract so as to get the full worth of his money
by regulating the pay In proportion to the
publicity given his advertisement. Pome pa-
pers place little or no value upon their col-
umns, and the proprietor is supposed to know
the true value. Ir the object is to acqusint
the people with the laws, amendments and
changes, the present rule is the best that
could be adopted to defeat the object.
The Sherman Patriot reports another pros-
ecution for the inadvertant violation of the
U. 8. revenue laws:
J. H. Doyle, a dealer at CoUinsville, in Gray-
son county, was up before commissioner Wil-
son last week charged with leaving labels on
empty liquor barrels uncanceled. We know
nothing of the merits of this case but hear the
charges are rather weak. We think it would
be much better for the revenue department
if some other course was pursued in the»e
matters without so many detectives prying
around bunting up cases for trial without
much in them.
In response to the advice of the News to
the Democratic papers of northern Texas not
to be too sanguine at the prospect of a fede-
ral court in that region, unless the judge has
been agreed upon in advance between the
Texas delegation, the president and the Re-
publican leaders in congress, the Sherman
Courier says:
There is not so much elation on the appoint-
ment of this branch court in northern Texas
as the News may suppose. If a Radical judge
is to be appointed, which is a life-time ap-
pointment, this country had better undergo
for a couple of years the inconvenience and
injustice of no federal court district in north-
ern Texas.
The Austin Statesman again calls on the
people of Texas to restore Gov. Throckmorton
to the executive chair of Texas, from ^hich
he was removed by Gen. Sheridan ten years
ago.
The patriotic sentiments of the San Antonio
herald are budding afresh for the coming na-
tional anniversary. That paper says:
Col. rf B Andrews, the popula r vice presi-
dent of the Peirce railroad, ha* been obliged
to decline an engagement to deliver an address
before the state fireman's convention, which
is to be held in Galveston on the 12th of June,
on account of oth*»r duties which will occupy
his entire time during this month. Col. An-
drews is one of the best Fourth of July ora-
tors in this state, and our citizens shou d se-
cure his services if there is to be any celebra-
tion of that day here.
Col. A.'s oratory is not wholly of the fourth-
of- July kind. His style is varied to meet the
02casi0n, and he is always equal to the latter,
whatever it happens to be. The Herald seems
to want some profane jollification on the 4th,
as it remarks:
The Gazette would have the fourth of July
celebrated in Austin by a grand reunion of all
the Sunday schools of the city, which would
border on a mixture of church and state, a
thing obnoxious to American sentiment.
In reply to the caution of the News to the
farmers of Ellis county against over-tasking
their lands, by growing crops of wheat and
cotton on the same land this year, the Enter-
prise says:
The News should remember that we have
black waxy lan i up this way. It is not easily
overtaxed. The first field ever opened in this
section produces better to-day than ever be-
fore, and it has been in cultivation continual-
ly for twenty-five years. The same land will
be better still in twenty-five years henca.
The Wilson county Chronicle says the popu-
lar idea that a good article of sugar can not be
made from sorghum cane is likely to prove er-
roneous:
Mr, Henry Morley, of Nockenut, Wilson
county, has sent to the Chronicle a specimen,
boiled in a common pot, which is pronounced
excellent by all those who have examined it,
being dry, well grained, very sweet and free
from any unpleasant taste. No better speci-
men cou'd have been produced from ribbon
cane bv a similar process, and it is confident-
ly believed that the application of proper
machinery would produce a superior ar ticle
of sugar. The sorghum cane is very prolific
all over Texas.
Although the press of the state can hardly
go too far in denouncmg crime, the following
remark from an exchange is worthy of atten-
tion :
It is the custom of the English pre?s to
make no comment upon a trial while it is in
progress, a custom dictated by good sense
and sound judgment, and which might be
imitated to advantage in this country.
The Rusk Observer makes the following ju-
dicious remarks on a subject that is not with-
out interest at the present time, though it
has been worn threadbare. It is a little curi-
ous that, if it is intrinsically important, it
should have never been raised in Texas be-
fore the present year:
There are plenty of farmers in Texas who
would make most excellent governors. We
have had several farmer governors in this
state whose administration were able and
honest. The cry is now among Grangers, to a
certain e* tent at least, that we must have a
farmer governor. We have no objection to
this, provided the man selected is competent
and honest. His being a farmer will make
him no better, nor will it make him any worse
for the position.
So far few will venture to differ with the
Observer. In what follows it will hardly have
the sanction of the Waco Examiner:
But if be is to be selected because he is
farmer, then for the sake of honesty and de
cency let him be a farmer in reality—not a
sham—a fraud—a humbug—a galvanized far
mer. We are told that Mister Lang is a far-
mer. and the very man for governor by his
supporters. We beg to be excused from ac
cepting him as a farmer. He never
was, and is not now a farmer. He has
never owned a farm in this state.|A few years
ago he hired some penitentiary convicts from
"Ward, Dewey & Co., and a couple of gentle-
men furnished some lani and stock, while
Lang furnished the convict labor, and they
ran a farm in partnership on shares. This
is the extent of Lang's farming in Texas, and
it is a misnomer and an insalt to farmers to
call him a farmer. If the Grangers want a
farmer for governor, they are mistaken in
their man when they point to Master Lang.
He is an unsuccessful merchant and a politi
cal disorganize^ and the head man of a
secret political organization, but he is not a
farmer.
upon occasion to demean itself, we
make an extract from an article that re-
cently appeared in the Press :
All this cry about equal honor to the blue
and gray, about forgetting everything, about
both naving done their duty, is silly gush
when it is not insidious disloyalty. The Ame-
rican soldier who died fighting f°r his coun-
try, and the sectional soldier who died fight-
ing against it, are not one and the same.
Their deaths can not be equally honored and
remembered. That Is Mexican politics. The
great war for the Union had a historic signifi-
cance, and the fighting in it must be some-
thing more than the meaningless stniggles In
an old gladiatorial arena, when the whole
people turn out It is for a higher purpose than
to commemorate mere fighting and remember
the fighters. They gather to honor, not the
combatant, but the patriot, and it is a low
conception of the American conscience which
reverses this order.
The St. Louis Jockey Club will erect
a monument over the remains of Mc-
Whirter, the horse that ran a quarter of
a mile last week after both of his fore
legs had given way, so that the bones
protruded six inches through the skin,
The dead horse was one of the most fa-
mous of the day, and stands credited
with the fastest two miles ever made in
a race, being second only to the won
derful achievements of Ten Broeck
against time. The bones of the legs
were not broken, but the tendons gave
way and both legs slipped from their
sockets at the fetlock joint.
The Earl of Roseberry, president of
the London Sunday Society, the object
of which is to secure the opening of the
museum and picture galleries to the
public on Sunday, made a speech at a
recent meeting of the society in which
he said:
My lords and gentlemen, hell we are told is
p»ved with good intentions, but 1 am con-
vinced that ot all the we. 1 intentioned people
wbo have contributed to that platform none
bave contributed so powerfully as tbe Puri-
tans of two centuries ago, who changed our
Knglish Sunday. They found a Sunday
where, after church, innocent recreation was
allowed. They took away all except the
church, to which modern civilization has
added the tap-room.
The brilliant victories gained during
the last week by the Texas herses at
New York, Cincinnati and St. Louis is
cause for congratulation to those who
have claimed that our state would be-
come the future home of the thorough-
bred in this country. First and fore-
most is the defeat of the great king of
the turf, Parole, by Guy Phillips, at
Jerome Park, New York, on the 4th
inst., for the Westchester cup. Next
the glorious victory of Jack Hardy, at
St. Louis, who beat a field of celebrated
cracks one mile and one-eighth in the
remarkably fast time of 1.56. Then
last, but not least, Virginia won the
three in five mile heat race (Queen City
stake*) at Cincinnati, June 3, over a
number of celebrated racers.
Gen. Btjfokd, ot St. Louis, one of
the oldest turfmen of the country, ex-
presses the belief that Harkaway is ca
pable of beating Ten Broeck. Gen.
Buford charges that Mr. Harper, the
owner of Ten Broock, was paid $2000
to keep him away from St. Louis, acd
Uat he is also paid $5000 for the use of
the horse during the present season,
which means for the race he is to run
with Mollie McCarty.
The Ind ana Republicans met in con-
vention at Indianapolis, June 5, and
made following nominations:
Secretary of State—Judge Isaac 8. Moore,
of Warwick county.
Auditor of State—Gen. A. O. Miller, of
Boone county.
Treasurer of State—Majar Geo. F. Herriate,
of Johnson county.
Attorney General—Judge D. P. Baldwin, of
Cass t-ounty.
Superintendent of Public Instruction—John
T. Merrill, of TippeCino . county.
The Democrats elected their con-
gressmen in Oregon, and secured suffi-
cient majority in the legislature to in-
sure a Democrat for United States sen-
ator in place of Mitchell.
There are few among the admirers
of old English ballads who have not
been touched, we dare say, with the
plaintive melody and pathos of that
sterling ditty, " The Mistletoe Bough,"
wherein is described the loss of a cer
tain damsel in an old oak chest that
closed with a spring, while the baron
and his retainers were merry-making in
the hall below. Many a heart has
throbbed over that dismal story, while
doubting the veracity of the bold rhym-
ster who clothed it with his imagery,
Yet only the other day in Missouri hap
pened an event that discounts the tali
of the ballad. Mrs. Amelia Moenich is
a teacher in the Franklin school at St
Louis. On Wednesday last she received
information of the miserable death
of her two little girls, aged 6 and 8 re
spectively, at Dixon, Missouri, 188 miles
from St. Louis. The little ones were
living with their father, a farmer near
Dixon. He visited the town on Satur
day to make some purchases. When
he returned in the evening he was
alarmed when they did not run out to
meet him. He searched the house for
them, and at last raising the lid of
large trunk found them both dead to-
gether. The poor little things, while
playing about the house, had hidden in
the trunk in sport, and " the spring
lock that lay in ambush there had fast-
ened them down forever." Skeptics
who have hitherto refused to weep over
the melancholy old refrain may now go
back and make up for lost time. The
story of the baron's daughter can
never more be doubted.
The Philadelphia North American,
one of the staunchest Republican pa-
pers in the country, says:
Make no mistake in weighing the testimony
of James E. Anderson. No man occupying a
position of honor and trust ever risks making
limself the target for obloquy and vitupera-
tion for the pleasure of lying. His story is
not a pleasant one, but rest assured it is true.
ANDREW JOHNSON.
Mb. Sam Houston Dixon, a member
of the senior class at Baylor University:
Independence, Texas, has written and
proposes to publish a work entitled
"Texas Poets," with an introduction
by Rev. W. C. Crane, president of the
university. It contains biographical
sketches of more than a dozen of the
best poet writers of Texas, with seiec
tions from their writings; to which will
be added an appendix containing criti-
cal notes and much valuable informa-
tion concerning the origin and the dis-
puted authorship of certain poems.
T™ Philadelphia Prett begrudges
the Confederate soldier the flowers that
were strewn upon his grave by the peo
pie of the north when decorating the
last resting places of their own dead
on Memorial Day. For the honor of
American fraternization and national
feeling, it is plaasant to know that the
Press stands almost alone in its narrow-
minded sectionalism. As a sample of

Description of tbe monument
Lately Unveiled atGreenville.
The monument to President Johnson
was unveiled at Greenville, Tennessee,
June 5th, in presence of some four
thousand persons. The principal ora-
tion was delived by Hon. George W.
Jones, who was for forty years the in-
timate, personal and political friend of
the late president. The monument is
situated upon an elevated hill command-
ing an extensive view of the surround-
ing country. It is about half a mile
from Greenville, and miy be seen by all
trains approaching that town on the
west. It is imposing in appearance,
extending upward twenty-seven feet,
with a base of nine by seven. The ma-
terial is of gray granite, and in beauty
and appropriateness of design and per-
fection of finish could scarcely be ex-
celled. The base, consisting of a low
broad arch, spanning the graves of Mr.
and Mrs. Johnson, some three feet
above the ground, and the two sup-
ports rest upon a limestone foundation
set five feet in the solid slate of Monu-
ment hill. On the arch is the die with
the inscriptions. It is three feet high
and four square, ornamented on either
side by a half pyramidal wing, each
surmounted with an urn holding
funeral torch. The inscriptions record
the birth and death of Mrs. Johnson,
and the following:
ANDREW JOHNSON,
seventeenth president. d. s. a.
Born December 29. 18t>8 died Julv 31, 1875.
Bis Faith in the People Never Wavered.
Above the die is the pedestal, three
feet high and two feet square. It
is finished at top and bottom with a
moulding, bead fillet and concive. It
is ornamented with a scroll constitu
tion, and a book with a hand resting
upon it. Next atove the pedestal is the
shaft, rising to the height of 15 feet. It
is fquare, with beveled corners, draped
at the upper end with the national flag,
above which is a globe surmounted
with an American eagle. The latter is
poised with outspread wings, as if in
defense against an unexpected attack
from below. The inscription and em-
blems are all on the east face of the
monument, leaving the other three
sides plain.
NOTES AHO OPINIONS.
New York Star: So far the invest!
gation appears to prove damaging to
men in high public station—to the ac
knowledged leaders of the Republican
party—and if it should rake up the se
crets of the managers of the campaign
who fraudulently cheated the people
out of the election all the better. That
would go far to destroy the Republi-
can party, which has done more to de
moralize the country during its seven
teen years of corrupt rule than all the
evils of our previous national history,
and to place the Democrats in power,
Let Sherman, Matthews, Chandler or
other leaders, if guilty, be exposed, and
if even Mr. Hayes were gu'lty let him
be brought to trial, should there be
any way of doing that, but the presi
dential title itself, as established by the
electoral commission and congress, can
not be disturbed, unless, as we said, it
could be brought before and acted
upon adversely by the Supreme court
of the United States on strictly consti
tutional grounds, and this is scarcely
possible. Exposure of the frauds and
the moral and political effect of these
we want, but not revolution to further
the designs of ambitious agitators,
whether they be Democrats or Repub-
licans.
New York Express: The one criti-
cism we have to make on the Democrats
in congress, the one criticism the coun
try is making and will make more
loudly than ever by and-by, is that they
have not pushed through more import-
ant measures for the relief of the peo
pie and the improvement of business
This is what they ought to have done,
even though they had left other things
undone. It is true that they have been
headed off by the Republicans, who
seemed determined that nothing shall
be done for the relief and welfare of
the country. It is true that every meas-
ure of importance which has come be-
fore congress originated with the Demo-
crats. But, with their working major
ity in the house, they should certainly
have done more. The best campaign
document they can frame is a bill that
shall have the effect of relieving the de-
pression of business and making times
better. The passage of the new tariff
bill is in their hands, and it will be
bhame for them to suffer it to be smoth
ered or defeated. Let them not think
of adjourning till they have passed that
bill at the very least. It is not platforms
nor professions the country wants, but
prosperity, and it will support the party
that does most to create it.
Philadelphia Times : The first day'i
work of the committee of investigation
uncovers a very dirty layer of bottom
facts in the electoral count. The test!
mony of James E Anderson is bo con-
sistent with itself and with the estab-
lished facts, and is so strongly sup
ported by documentary evidence that
it carries conviction with it. These
things may be considered established
by it, unless contradicted by evidence
hereafter to be taken: First, that the
East Feliciana parish had gone Demo-
cratic in a peaceful election; that An-
derson, its supervisor, was called on by
the leading Republicans to swear to a
protest that there had been "intimida-
tion that he refused to make oath to
a false statement; that an affidavit in
blank was prepared for his signature,
which he signed, bat refused to
swear to, with the understand-
ing, however, that he was to be al
lowed to fill up the blanks; that he was
never able thereafter to obtain posses-
sion of the paper; that thereupon he
protested and threatened "If you are
ping to throw out that parish on
'orged protest I de not propose to stand
it;" that shortly after this the visiting
statesmen arrived and sent for Ander-
son and Weber; that. John Sherman, as
spokesman for Hayes, entreated Ander-
son to " stand firm," and let the forged
protest go in under promise that An-
derson should " be taken care of " after
March 4; that afterward Anderson de-
manded by a letter, which was pro-
duced in evidence, that the promise
should be made more specific; that
John Sherman wrote in reply, entreat-
ing: them to ."stand firm," and saying,
"I am justified in assuming responsi-
bility for promises made, and will guar-
antee that you will be provided for as
soon after March 4 as may be practi-
cable "
New York Times: Whatever infamy
may be heaped on Anderson's charac-
ter, and however effectually his oral
testimony may be riddled, the docu-
mentary evidence he produced must re-
ceive careful attention. Mr. Sherman
is placed in an unfortunate position
rather by his treatment of the copy of
the letter attributed to him than by the
letter itself. The latter is open to an
interpretation not incompatible with in-
tegrity. It may be the assurance of re-
ward for the betrayal of an important
trust, or it may be encouragement in the
discharge of a'hazirdous duty. If the
popular judgment incline to the less fa-
vorable construction, it will be main-
because of Mr. Sherman's disin-
genuous manner when questioned
to its authorship. He had
proclaimed himself so eager to meet
every accusation to prove non-in-
tercourse with Anderson that his eva-
sive answers when the copy was pro
duced damage him exceedingly. They
raise a presumption against him that
will not be easily overcome. As for
Mr. Stanley Matthews, there can be no
doubt as to the effect of his letters upon
his own political character. The little
that was left him, after his senatorial
displays is utterly destroyed by these
proofs of his intimacy with Anderson,
and of the solicitude he displayed in
that person's behalf. With all his
scoundrelism it Is evident that Ander*
son was in Matthews's opinion worthy
of consideration at the hands of
members of the administration and
its friends. The Ohio senator urged
the New Orleans rascal for various
offices with a pertinacity that is unin-
telligible except on the supposition that
Anderson had an acknowledged claim
upon the party. The patience with
which the senator submitted to his im-
pertinence, the courtesy extended to
lim after the utterance of insolent
threats, and the continuance of these
friendly relations down to February
last, are suggestive of Anderson's pos-
session of valued secrets, ana of Mr.
Matthews's anxiety for the retention of
his good will. We have had many rea-
sons for regretting the election of Mr.
Matthews to the senate; he has been a
aei petual marplot and the cause of end-
ess scandal to the president and the
Republican party; ani these documents
over his own signature are but in keep-
ing with his senatorial career.

The Phonograph company have been
long devising and have now devised a
scheme of speculation with the won-
derful talking machine. At first they
thought of selling the machines at $100
apiece to all who would buy, to do
what they liked with them. Then the
company changed its mind and resolved
to send out the machines for exhibi-
tions with obligated agents. These
were to pay $100 for the loan of a phono-
graph machine for three months for
the purpose of traveling exhibitions—
the agents to charge twenty-five cents
admission and to give the company 25
per cent, of the gross receipts into the
bargain. About eighty agents are now
under instructions and in training for
this new branch of the show business,
and we may expect to have them phono-
graphing around pretty soon. Barnum
has offered $1000 cash for a machine,
and has not been able to purchase one
Set. The company believe there is a
ig speculation in it as a show, and
they want to reap about all the profits.
Lord Salisbury has been a close ob-
server of journalism. In a recent ad-
dress he said: " To enter a journalistic
career requires no capital, it requires
comparatively little training; it has but
one requirement, brains; but that it re-
quires in a very large degree. But
there are no vested interests to sustain
it. There is no organized profession to
reward it. The work must be done
well at the greatest cost of mental and
physical power, and the moment these
qualities decline the capacity to earn
money is gone. The rewards of the
profession are great; the power which
it exercises is wonderful, but the calami-
ties to which it is liable are exceptional.
I know nothing more distressing than
to read, as one sometime does, that a
man whose genins, originally, wit and
humor have fascinated the world, and
who has carried on the battle of life by
the exercise of these qualities against
increasing disease and fear of destitu-
tion for his family, has succeeded under
t ie labor at last."

GRANT AND THE WILDERNESS.
General Dick. Taylor Repeats His
Story.
Gen. Dick Taylor, writing to a New
York paper from Winchester, Virginia,
June 3, repeats his story regarding
Gen. Grant and tbe Wilderness cam-
paign, and gives Gen. Halleck as au-
thority for the statements made. Gen.
Taylor does not desire to enter into
any question of veracity, but simply
quotes his authority to show that he
was justified in what he asserted. Gen.
Taylor denies having had any acquaint
ance with Secretary Wells, ever haviDg
corresponded with him or having seen
his article in the March number of the
At'antic. Gen. Taylor, in his letter
of June 3, says:
In your journal of the 27th ult. is
published a chapter of history wherein
Gen. Grant pronounces fictitious the
eccount of a conference written by me
for the January number of the North
American Review. His language is
that the whole story is a fabrication,
and whoever vouched for it to Gen.
Taylor vouched for a fiction. My au-
thority for the story is the late Gen.
Halleck, wbo related it to me in New
Orleans in 1674 or 1875, and, though
not told me in confidence, it would not
hive been repeated but for the follow-
ing circumstances: During the summer
of 1876, at White Sulphur Springs,
Va., Gen. Joseph E. Johnston gave me
the identical story, upon the authority
of an officer on duty at the time in the
war office in Washington. My publi-
cation in the North American Review
excited some comment, and I sent a
printed slip containing it to Gen. John-
si,on, with a note asking him to correct
any errors of memory into which I
might have fallen. His reply was:
Richmond, Jail. 9, 18T8—My Dear General:
Your note of the 6 li and blip just received
My recollection of the conference in the war
office between the president, secretary of
war and Gen. Grant agrees with yours as pub-
lished in the slip except that in the latter
Grant's indifference to 100,000 deaths Is less
pronounced than in my recollection, not ma-
terially, however. Very truly yours,
J. E. JOHNSTON.
Without at all entering into the ques-
tion of veracity raised by Gen. Grant
against Gen. Halleck and the officers
from whom Gen. Johnston had the came
story, I submit that here was justifica-
tion for the language employed, viz.:
" The above came to me well authenti-
cated, and I have no doubt of its cor-
rectness." R. Taylor.
The rice crop of this country is com-
ing to the fore again. South Carolina
has an estimate yield of 44 000 tierces

Railroad New*.
On the Corpus Christi, San Diego and
Rio Grande narrow gauge tracklaying
has commenced on the extension from
Banquette, Texas, to Preconcs, about
10 miles, and it is thought that the lat-
ter point will be reached during June.
The report of Col. Hardee on the re-
connoissance made by him as consult-
ing engineer of the proposed New Or-
leans, Texas and Colorado road, has
been submitted to General Buckner, the
president of the company. The dis-
tance, as estimated by Col. Hardee, from
New Orleans to Dallas, in Texas, on the
line adopted by him is 464 miles, and
the total estimated cost $5,724,300 for
the road fully built and equipped, or
less than $12,500 per mile. The report
says:
" It will be observed from the accom-
panying map the line of the New Or-
leans, Texas and Colorado railway oc-
cupies ground about midway between
what is known as Morgan's lower route
to Houston and the upper line by the
New Orleans Pacific to Marshall. When
the Colorado road gets fairly into Tex-
as and intersects the International road
at Palestine, it is then more than 100
miles equi-distant from Marshall and
Houston. With these roads completed
and tapping, as they would, every por-
tion of the rich empire they penetrate,
it is not difficult to demonstrate that
the business that will grow with the fu-
ture developments of such a country
can not fail to support, with profit, the
three roads as commercial highways
into New Orleans, and without inflict-
ing injury upon the others."
Round Rock Headlight: The George-
town railroad, according to the last sur-
vey made, will -connect with the Inter-
national at tbe depot in this place, and
will run along the northern bank of
Lake Brushy creek to the old Austin
road, and will cross Brushy at the mill
dam near the old Round Rock crossing,
and will run through the old town. The
grading of the road has commenced,
and it is the purpose of the directory to
have the road completed by October 1.
The Shreveport limes of a recent
date says- Yesterday a car-load of bug-
gies in a rough state, together with the
wheels, iron, paint, etc., were received
here over the Texas and Facific, from
St. Louis via Sherman, Texas. They
go forward to-day on the steamer Texas
to New Orleans, and thence to Galves-
ton via the Morgan line. The buggies
are consigned to W. B Greenlaw & Co.
and are shipped by this route because
of the low rates of freight. We are
tald that these goods, notwithstanding
their long and circuitous route, will be
delivered in Galvoston at a lower cost
than it would cost to transport them
from Houston to Galveston,
Spring*.

monotonous routine of business life and local |
confines of home. On

At 8 o'clock A. M , a special train, with ample
and first-class accommodations in every re-
spect, including Pullman Palace Sleeping
Coaches and a well stocked Refreshment
coach, will leave Houston, Texas, on the
Houston and Texas Central railway, and run
through to Chicago and Kansas City, making
close connection at Denison with the Missouri,
Kansas and Texas; and at Hannibal with the
Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railways—two
of the finest and best equipped roads in the w«-st
—traversing between Denison and Sedalia the
far-famed, beautiful and historic Indian Ter-
ritory, and iunning from Hannibal to Chicago
over one of the most beautiful, fertile and pro-
ductive sections of country that the eye ever
beheld; also making close connection at Fort
Scott with the Missouri River, Fort Scott and
Gulf railway for Kansas City.
