PROSPECTUS OF
THE GONZALES INQUIRER.

Believing the time has arrived in the town
of Gonzales, surrounded M il is by the wealthy
farmers in Gonzales county, for the establish.
mcnt of n weekly journal at the county site
through, or near which, the San Antonio and
Gulf Railroad will pass, md in n section of
country unsurpassed for beauty of scenery,
fertility of soil and salubrity of climate i'm the
State Of Tcxas--it is proposed to establish at
tho above naincd place, a newspaper, TO be
known by the name of tho "GoNzALEs INQuI-
REp," devoted TO Agriculture, Literature, the
Mechanic Arts, Commercial Interests, and the
News of the day.
The Inquirer will be independent in politics,
but firm and decided in the advocacy of the
great principles Of our republican government,
so ably calculated in the administrations of
Washington and Jefferson; and will especially
maintain that sound md enlightened national
policy of sustaining our Southern institutions,
which the people of Texas, in conjunction with
her sister States of tho South, have ever held
sacred, as guaranteed to them by the c~onstitu-
ton of thc United States. And whilc we claim
to have had some experience as editor and
publisher of n public journal, we shall, Mt the
same time, bring to It's MD the poetic and Ito
rary talent of able writers, with whose ability
as correspondents We are well advised; and ut
the same time trust that the Inquirer will be
so .iudiciously conducted as to encourage and
bring to Its support contributors from the EN-
pirc State Of tho South on education, agricul-
ture and internal improvements.
While, then, We unfurl our banner in one of
the most thriving and delightful villages in the
State, and nssiduousl,y devote our energies eui1
time to make the Inquirer what the develop.
mcnts OF tho country demand, and its appear
ance equal to any journal in the South, we shall
expect proportionatc encouragement from tho
people Of Texas, than whom no citizens in the
Union manifest a livclier interest in whatever
pertains to tho maintenance of morality, the
cause of education and the pcrpctuity of ropub.
lican institutions.
TERMS:
The Inquirer will be published weekly, on
an imperial sheet Of fine paper, neatly execu-
ted, for SO 90, If paid in advance; 30 90, il
not paid within six months; or 81 90, at the
expiration Of the year.
All communications for the Inquirer must be
addressed to the Editor, free of postage.

The american Bible Society have Just

this new issue . the Society is. il may be
necessary 10 say thatit has been. found
that in the lapse Of years many misprints
had crept into the common version Of the
scriptures, the Same words were not al
ways spelled alike. erroneous punctuation
obscured the sense and fhe running titles
of the pages were not what they should be
in many cases. These detects were felt
|tosbe SO great at length, that our Bible
Society appointed Committee Of Yer.

editions of the Scriptures and securing
one which should indeed be q standard, a
true King James Version, the genuine
Word Of God as translated and set forth
under the complete and wise arrangement
lof the eminent men to whom the work Of
translation was intrusted two hundred and

Spring Concert.
BY MRS. L. H. s1GoURNEY


There's concert, a concert of gIadness and glee,
The programme is rich and tae tickets are free;
In grand vaulted hall, where there's room and
to spare,
With no gass lights to eat up the oxygen there.
The musicians excel in their wonderful art;
They have compass of voice and the gamut by
heart,
They travelled abroad in the winter recess,
And sung to vast crowds with unbounded success.
And now tits favor, privilege rare,
Their arrival to hail and their melodies share.
The exquisite minstrels fashion have set, 81,
Which they hope to comply with and may not re-
gret; @ s
They don't keep late hours, for they've always
been told
'Twould injure their voices and make them look
old. @4 ass lst vi iasss $50 II
They invite you to come, il you have fine ear,
To the garden or grove, their rehersals to hear,
Their chorus is full ere the sunbeam is born,
Their music is sweatest at breaking of morn,
II was learned at Heavens gate. with is rapturous
lays,
And may teach yous perchance, i,s own spirit Of
