PersoRGl.-We were pleased to NEE t
in cur Office on Tuesday last Mr.. JOSH
alb Fowler, one of the authors of Fow-
ler's Arithmetic, work which attained
in Tennessee and Virginia, a popularity
which would at this day command quite
a sale if il could be had. Mr.. Fowler
ia aged So and is in very good health.
He is now living in the BraLos Valley
Of Texas, aud considers it equal to the
land of Goshen. Really, in a land
where the Fig, the Grape, the Peach,
the Almond and the Pecan grow in tie
greatest profusion and without labor;
where honey is rained down until il
fills the cups Of the acorns upon the oak,
and where il may be gathered wild to
auy extent; where wine is made without
sugar; where milk kline are but four
dollars each, where the Inhabitants in
travelling maks the oaks their inns and
the blue grass their beds, the heart need
no longer yearn for Egypt. Such is the
Valley of the Brazos. Its capacities
for production are as varied as they are
rare. Cotton is grown at tho rate of a
bale and half per acre. Marble may
be had for building purposes. The gras.
never fails and the red cedar abounds
Greenbacks are unknown aud gold i,
plenty. 1t ceems to be the happy meiI
between the labor of the North and tn,
inertia of the tropics.

PlopH Ost--The mastodonian enter
prise of Hugh NJ. Freeman at john
sous Depot has collapsed, The. case,
Gus f'uuder Of such lofty hopes has
gone, aud the good people Of Johnson's
may now simmer their ambition to the
point illustrated BY the dull truth that
il is only by the work Of their own
hands that they can build up their in,
stitution of learning. The beautiful
and attractive lady, for whose hand be
protested to wait, had the good nerve
and fortune to distrust him, with her
decisive answer the airy fabric of bis
granite castle fell. Thus ends the ex-
travsgant aud uusubstantial dream from
which our own ineredulous opinion failed
to arouse the citizens of our neighbor
ing town. We hope they are wiser now
