SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE.

From all parts Of the State we see
abundant evidence that the Hon. Guy
NJ. Bryan, Of Galveston and Brazoria,
will he elected Speaker of the next
House of Representatives. While 1t is
tho province Of the House to elect its
own presiding officer, it is still true the
whole State has q right to voice In
the matter, as, on the election Of a
proper man, demands the dispatch Of
the public business. A poor presiding
officer Is ever stumbling block In leg
islative business. Mr.. Bryan, for more
than any man elected, has bad the ex-
psrience TO make good officer. Besides
this, he hos the clear heal, pure heart
and dignified address necessary to such
an efYlcer.

FRIENDLY CAUTION.

To our our property holders of Dallas
we address this brief paragraph. We
tell you that not less than two hundred
good sites for towns in Texas have been
killed beyond redemption by the high
prices asked for lots. No one, we
maintain, as a fact demonstrated .
thousand times, can prosper and become
permanently seat Of prosperous trade,
without large infusion Of mechanics
and day laborers. These two classes Of
useful mon can not stop here, unless
they can get homes within their means.
Indianola, Lavaca, Jefferson, La Sale,
Bolivar Point, and other places of great
natural advantages, have been butch.
cred by landed proprietors asking ex-
orbitant prices for lots. The average
of that portion Of mankind called
American have good common sense.
Adopting this as true, tl.vy know that
the land for miles north and northeast
of Dallas Is as good and no betterto live
on, as it is within the corpofat limits,
of Dallas. They know that ten acres
Of good land, within five miles of Wax
Ahachie, Fort Worth, Sherman or
Hutchins, Is worth fully as much rs IL
itwere within five miles of Dallas and,
therefore, II 1t costs two hundred dollars
per acre near Dallas and only fifty dol
lars near either of the other towns,
seekers after homes will 60 there. and
| IL they do not, they are foolish men.
We tell our landholders that If they do
not put their lands down ut fair prices,
they will do as thousands have done
before, cut their own throats. While
the average American people are not
half so smart as they think they are
and possess many vain glorious weak
nesses--yet, in some respects, they are
an acute people. They will not psy o
thousand dollars an acre for land sdjoin-
ing Dallas when they can get jnssas
good land adjoining Sherman or Fort
Worth for fifty dollars an acre; II they
would, they would be foolish. The
times are hard, money is scarce. and
ifthe property holders In Dallas are
wise, they will reduce their figures and
sell to suit the times. This is our ad-
vice, and IL calamities come, we wash
our hands clear Of 1t all. Sell your lots
at fair advances and be satisfied.

On tho early history of France,
like that OF Spain and other Euro
pcan nations, 80 much lurid and
blood-staincd light has fallen, that.
for centprisa, we scarcely set a
glimpse at page that is not disfg-
urcd by some terrible intrigue or
gloomy tragedy. Love, ambition,
jealousy, and the love Of wealth and
power, were all mighty agents in the
dramas then enacted, and played
terribly prominent roles. but cspe-
cially in the French court Of tho day,
In ILLUSTRATION Of tho truth Of this
lattor assertion, We may refer briefly
to an episode in the annals Of the
Meroving:ans, when tho court had
suffered from contact with Roman
morals and luxuries, and when the
dagger Of the assassin wac the final
argument ofeven royalty itself,
1t appears that in the palm lest
days of the reighing monarch of our
brief narrative, that fierce and 6ery
po,entato had 90 far strayed from
