Z Letter from Sulphur Springs.
SULPHUR SPRINGS, TEXAS,
January |, 1869.

January !, 1869. !
y" the Edi'or ofih- psils. Herald:
A Happy New Year TO all"
have long since intended to write
you few lines, but business of diff
fcrcnt characters has prevented me
from doing so.
However, will try and let you
know, in my humble way, how we
have prospercd since we bid adicu
to our many friends at De Has.
When we left the town of Dallas
nj about noon on the Goth day of
October, 1868, we proceeded to n
point about two (2) miles East of
White Rock Creek on the jefferson
road, when We "bivouaced' for the
night. | took the opportunity
thereby afforded to visit my friends
Mr.. and Mrs. F-s, who live near
there. We left that camp at about
Z o'clock NJ. next day, and after a
very easy and propitious march we
arrived at Sulphur Springs, on the
list of November, at about / l o'clock,
AN. We were ut once rcpoi ted to
the Brcvct Lieut.. Col. Commanding
for duty, and at once pitched our
fonts upon very nice spot of land
near the centre of the town.
The officers of this Post are much
liked and respected by the men
composing the command, on ac-
count Of their peculiar way of en-.
forcing the discipline and rcgula.
tions as prescribed for the United
States Army.
Brevet Lieut.. Col. W. B. Peasc,
Captain 18th Infantry, is in com
mand Of tho Post, and has for his
Staff Officers, Lieut. c. G.. Gordon,
9th Cavalry. A .A.Q.M. & A.C.S., and
Lieut.. James NJ. Burns, 18th Infan-
try, Post Adjutant.
Capt. Norton and Lieut.. Chance,
who are we'll known to yourselves
are upon duty with the company
and are in their usual good degree
Of health.
The company arc all well, that is
as well as the generality of compa.
MES, aud all join in saying, that Of
all the stations they have been at
they were more pleased with Dallas
than any of the others.
Wherever we so, Dallas friends
will be remembered.
Your humble servant will call
upon you before he leaves for the
North of Mason and Dixon's line.
BY the way, the gentleman of
greenbacks, (Maj. Vcdder, Paymas-
ter, z. S. A. made us call IN the
4th ultimo, and gave us a little of
the "necdful," for which we were
very grateful.
We wish We could have had as
good places to expend the same as
ut our friends Clark & Bryan's, JEFF
fries, DIR. Haynes, Willmetts, &c.
But we will endeavor to make up
for lost time one of these days.
Shall keep you advised from time
70 time of our whereabouts. Ho-
ping to hear from you soon. l remain
as ever, your true friend, X. l.. e.

By II anybody doubts the prosperity Of
our city and county, let him look over the
list of marriages chronicled in the HERALD
within the last three months. We know it
is a common error that lovers think they
can fash upon moonshine and dew, but il
is common error. They have an eye to
the substantials, and know as we'll as 9TH
ers that: "Prosperity's the very bond Of
love-" And frequent marriages in CON-
munity MS clearly indicate state of pros
perity as the rising or falling Of the mer-
curry indicates the state of the weather.
But the best of it is they are not half
done. Editors know everything, and we
know full we'll that before many moons
have waved a1d waned another large batch
of our young folks will have bound them
selves with the silken cords. But don't get
alarmed, zoe front teiA

Two desperadoes named Witt, OF

about Pilot Grove, come into town

hours before snn,down, fiourishing
with guslo their six shooters and
sh0t,guas, but without disturbing

they mounted their horses, and il
was supposed len town By tho lower
Bonham road, They. however, stop
ped ut Mrs, Hurts, took supper, aud
afterwards returned Ia the saloon on
Front Row, where they amused
themselves by forcing every unf6r,
tunate son Of Africa who passed that
way, TO dance for them, John
Coward, who is said to be- hard.
working, reliable freedman, hap,
poning TO come up, was also ordered
TO dance. John told them he could
not, when one Of tho dcspcradocs
struck him over the head with n
six,shooter, John attempted TO es'
cape from them into tho saloon,
whereupon each Of these fellows
fired ut him, one ball breaking his
thigh, and the other entering his
back on tho right side, passing out
at tho pit Of his stomach. These
fellows then started out of town,
Yelling and discharging their pistols

Sheriff Short and large party Of
citizens who collected ~ soon rs the
firing was heard, but without effect.
ing any thing, as tho assassins made
their escape under cover Of the
darkness.
This is the first outrageous viola.
ton Of law committed in this vicini-
ty since the close Of the war, and we
trust our civil officers will summons
every man in the county, if it re.
quires that many, TO arrest and rid
the Community of all such charac-
tiers.
John, the freedman, is yet alive,
and hopes are entertained Of his re-
covery.

B6r There is no definite information as
to the doings of the Convention. The del
egate from this county, Hon. A. Bledsoe,
returned home last Saturday, and informs
us that the Convention was to have adjourn
ed ON that day. On the 9th resolution
was adopted appointing committee to in
vest gate the truth of the statements and
charges in the resolutions passed by the
Grand Jury of the Federal court.
The committee to revise the Constitution
made report Of some amendments offered,
and the sections amended were ordered to
be printed. The convention then consider
ed sections not amended, adopted few sec-
lions of the bill Of rights, published last
summer, and adjourned.
On the 2Sth, q resolution to suspend Bry-
ant, Of Harris, until his trial is over, and
if found guilty, to cxpel him, was rejected
by majority of one!
The constitution, SO far rs it has been en-
crossed, has passed its third reading, except
that portion which the revising committee
amended. The article on education and the
legislative department have yet to come on
their second reading, and on this there will
be Q stubborn fight.
