pronounced il a success, vas, in my ham'

very pleasant 10 visitors, ks il was the
second Fair in thai city, everything should

wanting drainage, everything was mud

any eourlesies we're extended to rrprssen'

enough, but then, IT, you went without the

had to pay the same sum over 4 Tue
company from this city, In full uniform
with a tne band Of music, who went up to
grace the occasion, were charged hfiy cents
each, and came away Disguised. The
whole affair had too much the look Of mon
ey.making. We hope our Houston friends
made il profitable. There was large
crowd before the rain-many coming thro
curiosity to see the noted, IL not famed
Horace Greeley. Horaee's address CON
tanned nothing new, as he said himself
but was given id good, plain, strong Eng
lish, of which he is q master. We like his
style much better than his political prin.
ciples, though we think him about the best
and most honest Of his party. We ar,
glad he came 10 Texas, and think his visit
may do us some good. Perhaps in the HI
Klux charges, which for some time back
have figured in the columns Of the Tribune
Texas may be left out hereafter. Greeley
is evidently sofening toward the South
Possibly the visions Of the Presidency,
which have lately been floating dimly be
fore him, may have somewhat melted his
heart. His political speech in this city
was not what his radical friends here ex.
pected or desired. They wanted him tc
endorse the party and State administers
ton doings in Texas, but Greeley was toe
smart for them-it would take nm older
boy than Horace to do that-the old Boy
himself could only do it, and | think il
would bring the blush to hi, face.
AT Houston, had the pleasure Of max
ing the acquaintance of Mr.. Gushing, the
old editor and publisher of the Telegraph,
and now n large and enterprisng dealer in
booksI land stationery; also, his very agree
able wife and Miss Mollie Moore, now
living with her, the sweet poetess of whom
Texas may well be proud, as she is. The
meeting with these ladies and some other
old friends of both sexes, served to COM
pensate me for my prolonged stay in the
city under the disagreeable pressure of a
crowd, hot weather, mosquitoes, and bad
ly managed Fair.
GALVESTON.
1t was n positive pleasure to reach this
beautiful city and breathe the pure air Of
the Gulf. found my friends Richardson
and Stuart, Of the News and Civilian, look
ing as genial and comfortable, and behav-
ing as polite and gentlemanly as ever.
was almost afraid TO approach the former,
seated in his new and splendid office, close
by his Grand Opera House. But he seems
no rouder than ever, and talks as pru-
IDENTIFY and wisely about politics and bust
ness. The Opera girls, SO far, have not
hurt him Il bit. The Galveston ians are
beginning to wake up and to consider the
necessity of direct railroads from their
city TO the East, West and North. If the
Kansas road comes to Bolivar Point, they
are talking of tunnel under the bay to
connect there with it; also of a road to the
Sabine TO connect with the Chattanooga
road, and another along the coast in the
direction of San Antonio. They do not
mean to let Houston cut them off and out
of their trade. All this Is very well and
smacks of worldly wisdom. 1t is full time
for them to be up and doing.
My next letter will be from New Or
leans, and, as | expect to visit Jackson,
Holly Springs, Memphis, Louisville and
st. Louis, on my way to New York, the
readers of the HERALD may look out for
news from all these places, with their
present condition and prospects hereafter,
as well as touch of politics, now and
then, to keep them up with the times and
in love with the HERALD and its wander
ing correspondent. r. j.
