An imposition.

Among the many impositions
practiccd upon Southern communi.
ties by Northern shippers, our at.
tention has been frequently called
to the manner of packing hay
The average weight Of bale OF
hay, for which the consumer is
charged two and quarter cents
per pound, is two hundred and six
ty pounds. OF this the wood used
in baIing weighs sixty pounds
Thus the purchaser is forced TO pay
two and quarter cents a pound
for wood, or 81 35 on each bale of
hay purchased. This is an outrage
upon honesty and fair dealing, and
as such, should meet with an i'm.
mediate remedy. Yet, this is one
of that class Of evils from which
good may flow, and whilc we CEN
sure the perpetrators we have but
little sympathy for the victims
1t is shame to the agriculture of
Texas that her people should send
abroad for hay. Instead of bong
an importer she should be one Of
the largest exporters. Naturally
grass growing State, it would re-
quire but little attention upon the
part of the farmers of Texas to pro.
duce not only enough for homo
consumption, but leave an immense
for shipping. 1t may seem
an anomaly to call cotton-one of
the chief sources of our wealth.
the enemy to. our agricultural in
dependence, and yet, in great
such is the fact. With
perhaps the northern portion of the
State excepted, the cultivation of
cotton is the one idea to which, all |
others must succomb in the mind |
Of the Texas planter. He purchas-
IS his corn, his oats, his hay and |
his -four, when, with proper alton
ion, bis own lands would teen with
lhese fruits ofagriculture and make
iim the seller instead of the buyer.

tilicials Of Dallas In Office until The ques.
ton Il decided by the Supreme Court, or
others are elected In their places next

about the whole matter Is this. We can.
not under.iand, why IL should be thought
desirable TO mako all this trouble for the
possession OF the city offices for no short
time. What can be The object? Is there
any thing concealed under this movement?
The good people of Dallas are quite satis-
fed with their present oiiicials-so far as
we can learn, they are doing very well.
Why disturb them2 Why should Dr..
Haynes, gentleman of reputed wealth
and immersed in his mercantile business,
desire to hold the Office Of Mayor of Dallas
for six months? 1t is passing strange TO
us. Is there a cat in the bag, which we
fail to see2 Why does Governor Davis
persist in thrusling upon the people of
Dallas new officials when they are content
with the old ones, and when no charges
are preferred against them2 Is it for TIE
mere qualification Of exercising unlawful
and 1espotic power? 1t wouli look SO,
but then, as we have minated, there may
be the largest sort of pussy, a tough old
he one, hidden in the radical bag. Is il
possible thar his earthly 0mnipotency has
some political object in view, and that
something desirable to somebody is ex.
pected TO be accomplished by a new set of
city officials, or is it intended as o punish
ment for something done or omitted to be
done by the present oflicials2 Have the
gentlemen, who are anxious or willing to
take the places of the present municipal
iiy Of Dallas, seriously reflected on what
may be the consequences if they succeed
in getting them by the strong military
arm Of the Cover nor and his assistants?
We will venture to tell them. If the Su
preme Court decide that they are not the
legal officials of Dallas, every act which
they perform will be illegal, every cent of
money they touch, they will be liable for,
every incroachmeni upon the property of
citizens will be trespass, Cor every arrest
they make, they will be subject to actions
for false Imprisonment; and the $50 900
lately given against the Governor by an
honest jury of Walker County, should be a
warning to them. And what the need of
all these risks? What is to b. accomplish
ed by producing all this confusion in our
municipal affairs? If there is no great
point 10 be gained, aud if there is it is
hidden at present. we kindly ask the con-
testents in this matter to quit their fool
ishness and let things alone The city is
being seriously injured by this contest nd
the delays incident to it. But if they will
persist, we have warned them of the con- |
$ quences, AMI our skirt is clear. They |
may go ahead if they will. Their time
will be short any how.
