A Texas newspaper says that the

Immediately upon assemblage proceed
to 'impeach the Governor, repeal the
enabling act, militia and police laws,
effect thorough reform of the common
school system, and pass an act calling
for convention to remodel the Con-
stitntion." The unreasonable paper
thinks that by the time this little pre-
liminary work is accomplished the
Legislature will be ready to settle
down to business.

THE COUNTY IN WHICH WE LIVE.
UNION TOWNSHIP,

UNION TOWNSHIP,
One of the No. of our county, lies Sec
ond from the east on the north tier of
townships, and is well worthy of more
thorough attention than was able to give
to it. On the south line is beautiful
quarter section of land, lately purchased
by David Upton. for $4,000. He will put
it in cultivation this fall, and next year it
will be covered with beautiful grain such
as Union Township always grows. Of
Mr.. Upton must say word, as sample
of what Iowa soil, coupled with energy
and industry will do for a man. He came
from the army with about $1,000, and to-
day he has it doubled, triplei aye, more
than quadrupled (; not by speculative gent
US, but by solid industry. In this connec
zion remember remark made to me by
an old and successful farmer that "there is
no reason why young man in this coun-
try, with health, and a willingness to work,
should not become well situated, and own
good farm" also notice that although
our farmers generally are consumate grum.
blers, (of course they cannot help it, being
inherited) they are always well fed, well
clothed, and except their stereotyped com
plainings, happy and contented. AS go
about among them l often think of a snatch
of song learned when a boy

And seat by the farmers wood fire side
Where the laugh and the jest and song arc free.

Maybe days work at the rear end of a
threshing machine would spoil the 70.
nance and the longing.
My first call was upon Mr.. 3. Knowlton,
whom found busy threshing wheat that
was yielding eighteen bushels per acre.
Mr.. x. does an extensive farming business,
and is withal an enterprising man, as wit
ness the fac. that the loss of large new
house two years since by fire, only spurs
him to greater activity, and tod ay another
