a TOUCHING STORY.

g.
To the memory Of Patrick Connor, this sim
pie stone was erecled by his Fellow. work
men.
Those words you may real any day
upon white slab 10 a cemetery not
mpny miles from New York. but you
mightread Ihem hundred times with
out guessing atethe little tragedy they
indicate. without knowing the humble
romance which ended with The plscing
ofthas stone above the dust of one poor
and humble mau.
Ia his shabby friezo Jacket and mud
laden brogans, he was scaicely an at

now beginning 10 rival the cotton crop, and we be-
leve that from this time ior5h ~ will be worth as
much TO Texas az the cotton trade The hide trade
In Texas Is destined 10 become a source OF great
wealth. The wool trade, we apprehend, Is about
hair ele value OF the cotton trade and will almost
equal II after While. The tallow trade is
also growing into importance and will soon
become source of great revenue. The wine
trade oil Texas Is increasing every year, ard will
ultimately become one OF the largest aud most pros
porous industries in the State When the railroads
are extended little further into the Interior the

trade Ia already very large and prosperous, and
soon as packing establishments are erected at all
needful points that trade VIII become leading one
In the State. The castor bean and the California
clover are both attracting attention. and will be
sources Of much profit. In few years the present
sorghum, ana making molasses a,M sugar from it,
will become q profitable industry for Texas. Hay

rian grass, from crab grass, from pea vines and
from many other materials, VIII become general and
profitable in this state. Manufactures OF cotton,
wool, leather, horns and bones, and many other

THE NATIONAL GAME.
BrookIyn W. New York.

The picked mines from the three leading clubs OF
New York ana the three leading clubs OF Brooklyn
were not ON hand al the Union grounds yesterday,
as expected, TO take part In the game on the
sion OF the Testimonial to John Zeller. Two very
good mines were made up and friendly game in
dulged in. Up to the end of the fifth innings the
contest had every appearance Of being first class
aiair. After that however, there seemed to be
Of an inclination TO show good nature rather than
good playing. Not good nature and good playing
are Incompatible, but that the players grew careless,
laughed at their mistakes and did not try To Offset
Their "mufsr by over exertion to make any very
creditaDle display. The crowd In attendance was
by no means as large as the nature OF the occasion
demanded.
The score OF the game i as follows:-.

from the Mobile (Ala) Tribune.l
The Convention.

The Montgomery Mail, after having in
dorsed the views of the OHIO STATESMAN,
strong in opposition to sending candidates
from the South to the National Democratic
Convention, modifles its views in the fol-
lowing style:
"We think that it does not follow that we
should not send delegates to the New York
Convention. Although it is now manifest
that the South should accept the nominee
from the hands of the Northern delegates,
we think it might be both becoming and
productive OF great-good for Southern del
egates to be present for consultation, for
friendly greetings with those who are striv-
ing to protect us from impending outrage,
and for unanimous endorsement on the
part of the South of the man presented by
the Convention, be he Pendleton, johnson,
Hancock, Seymour or Pierce. 1t might be
we'll for our most eloquent and clear-head-
ed men to attend the club and mass meet
ings of the city of New York which will
meet to ratify the ticket, and speak words
of truth to the people which may go abroad
over the whole country. Silence may be
construed into indifference, or contuma-
cy, or recusancy, or latent treason, or some
thing else. Let us send our best men as
delegates - prudent, cautious, eloquent,
honest men-who will, when called upon
to vote, say that the voice of the Southern
white men is the voice of the Northern
Democracy, anu IildG We ltafS OuF ueSGluy
in the hands of our friends"
That is, the men whom we send as dele
gates are not to exercise any of the powers
that are supposed to belong to delegates.
They are to be mere ''lookers on In Vien-
na," instructed to decline to vote when
asked. and to hold themselves in readiness
to act the part of alarm clock stump Speak
ers whenever they are called upon.
To quiet the fears of those who think that
"silence may be construed into Indifference
or contumacy," let Alabama propose to her
sister States to meet in convention at some
point in the South, say Montgomery, and
pledge themselves to support the Demo-
cratic nominee, and give their reasons for
declining to take any part in the nomina-
ton. By such course we shall do more
to assist the Democratic party than we can
accomplish in any other way, and in help
ing the Democratic party we help the
South.
By-the-bye, from whom came the invi-
tation for the South to send delegates to
the July Convention? We have heard and
read much of it, but have never seen copy
of the note Who has?
