what Is the Matter with lIannahr'


Not long since we noted tho starting of
new democratic paper ~ Canton, Van
Iabdt county, called The Canton Timls,
and express 1 our qualification a. he
even'--il had our best wishes. It's editor,
the other week, came to our city and left
without our Icing aware Of his pres9n,e (,
MS he did not do us the favor Of callingat
our sanoium and making himself known.
We learr cl however, after his departure,
that he did call on the proprietor Of he
HERALD, who was kind enough to furnish
him with some paper TO keep his 'mill u
grinding" though he really had none to
spare. If the young gentleman was not
treated iairly in our city, we deeply regret
il, and should like to know wherein any of
us failel to do him proper reverence. For
something surely must have occurred TO
sour his young stomach and put him in
the worst of humors. We have before us
No. . The Times, containing an article
headed, "0ur Trip to Dallas which is
about as illnatured and unfair n represen-
tation Of our city and county as a mortal
enemy could have given. We are told that
Dallas is greatly oyerrated, more so than
any city in Texas. That she has neither
present advantages nor future prospects.
That her air is impure, her drinking water
very inlerior--hcr streets dusty, and,
above all, the soup at the Crutchfeld
House is bad. This last item seems to have
worried the young man mora than any
thug else-he dwells upon it n length and
quotes Latin in his desperation of indig.
nation. The land in Dallas county he
found "sterile and worthless in large bod
les" and the farmers "a thriitless and
careless sort of people Did they live in
the Stree State of Van Zondi,' they would
be "taken up as Migrants"
We feel sorry for this young editor, who
must have ven,ured so far from home with
out his mothers knowing he was out. His
misfortune with the soup at the Crutchiield

Texas deeply touches our scnsibilities.
We have been young ourself and remem-
Der the evil effects Of over eating sour APP.
pies or green currans. When the pains
are on, it makes one unfit for anything but
groaning and bowling like young puppy.
Our youthful brother of the Times could
not have gotten over the effect of the soup,
when he wrote his slashing article, which
will hurt nobody but himself. 1t does not
need serious contradiction. Poor little
follow We recommend dose of Mrs.
Winslow's Soothing Syrup or little Yer
mifuge. 1t would do good 10 his lower
stomach and make him breathe easier.

DISCRIMINATION.

The only serious sign of disorganzation
in the democratic party of Texas, which
we notice, is in the Senatorial District OF
Travis, where Gen. Shelley has been nom.
mated for Senator by what appears tohave
been n very fair convention. Before the
convention met at Lampassas, the Bolton
journal babe it defiance and hoistei the
name Of Sterling Robertson for the Senate,
subject only to the decision of the ballot
box; and now, when the convention has
acted, without any showing of unfairness,
it continues its opposition. This is all
wrong, and we are greatly surprised at
the conduct of the Journal and Col. Rob-
ertson also. Perhaps it may be said, that
this is no corccrn of ours, but ii is. DEM
ocrats throughout the State are interested
in this matter. 1t is setting n most per
nicious example at this critical time. 1t
may be followed by others in different Sec
tions of the State and work great mischief
We are all depending on conventions to
concentrate the democratic and conserva-
tive votes and keep out the uuprincipled
radicals from Office. This is no time for
discussion. We must stand up to conven-
tiUns, though they may not have acted as
wisely as they might, and be even tinct
,.ed with trickery and wrong, We had
better abide b. their decisions than to be
thrown into utter confusion and let tho
radicals retain or get new Offices. Private
griefS must be stihed, individual wrongs
must be borne, COR the time, until they can
be rightcd with less danger 10 the ublic
good. The rad icals are watchful as well
as INSCRIPTIONS. No sooner has an honest
democrat been defeated fer nomination,
than they go to him and try to persuade
him to run as an independent candidate,
and promise him their support. Turn
away from them. They cannot be trusted.
Show them your back as soon as possible.
In the time to come, your own party will
do you justice. Look to it and to your best
friends in it, and avoid the devil and his
satalites and all their works. We hope
our friend, Col. Robertson, will reconsider
his determination and bide his time. 1t
will come.

Editor Dallas llE AID
SRA few weeks ago | had published
in the HERALD an article relative to the
variation Of the magnetic needle. The va
ration deduced, proved to be erroneous,
and | hasten to correct it. The error arose
from two causes, which ought to be under
stood. Bowditch's Navigator, n work so
nearly perfect that ii has been republished
for three. fourths of century, with scarce
ly any alteration, says 9TH Ed. page IL y
'rhe variation of the needle is the angu-
lar distance between the true north and
the magnetic north. This angular dis
lance or variation is called east when the
magnetic north is eastward of the true
north, but vest when the north point of
the needle is west OF the true north. This
definition is perfectly clear. And when
the variation is east, if we face any one o.!
the cardinal points the variation will al
ways be on our right hand. In the same
work. page ZIG, in the rule he says, "The
variation will be easterly when the point
representing the true bearing is to The
right hand of the point representing the
magnetic bearing but westerly when to
the left hand" All of his examples con.
form to this rule which is directly contra.
ry to his definition. This msconcepion
mslead me in my observation Of the sun.
In regard to the observations on the
fixed stars, I misload by highly
finished map of the stars TINT represented
Ursa Major on the wrong side of The pole.
A moments thought, with knowledge of
the. right ascension Of the star, would have
prevented the error, but took for granted
that highly finished map was reliable.
The observations AMI calculations made by
me were correct, and the error arose from
the causes above specified. in which sub
traction was made instead of an addition.
The variation is at this time 90 Az east.
Respectfully,
