TIGE CITY OF AUSTEN,

AT the late election gave Il 100 majority
against the Constitutional Amends
mcnts. Why? Because, if adopted,
the Supreme court would annually
meet ut two other places Ia the state
instead Of sitting the whole year IN
Austin. Hence, Austin would lose
many n dollar and other parts OF the
state would be relieved Of serious bur
dens.
Austin also gave Jack Hamilton,
Radical candidate for the Senate, IS
majority over the Democratic nominee,
DR.. w. IL. Wes'tall, Il pure and high
toned man, but who happens TO live in
Williamson county.
The people viii remember this mean
seltshness Of ina. 0rity Of the people
of Austin. Only one year ago, tae
state generously voted for Austin rs
the capital Of the Subsequently,
Galveston and Dallas, the two places
at which the Supreme court ought to
be held outside of Austin.
But II majority AZ Austin are not sat
isiiod with having all The State Offices
aud Institutions and " mililoh o! dol
lars in annual disbursements. Oh, NO!
They want the last morsel, regardless
OF the welfare of the balance Of the
state. AT every meeting of the Legis-
lature they want some additional relief.
At the last, they wanted block of
State ground on which to build u Court
house, and it WAS given 10 iheW
Now, for the future, we call upOG opy
Representatives to remember Austin--
that is, her majority-and grant them
nothing by way of favor until they
learn the just demands of heightened
political ethics.

A DISPATCH from Austin to the Gal
weston News says Governor Davis has
disclosed his intention of surrendering
the office to Coke on the meeting OF
the Legislature, and Attorney General
Alexander declares that all the other
State officers will do the same; in other
words, that they will take no advan-
tage Of legal technicalities in the law.
We recently stated the case SO plainly
In THE HERALD that there seemed no
room for doubt, but this dctermina-
lion Of the present officers of State
{flilly endorses Som' view and will re-
move oil difficulties. We presume the
old county officers of the State at large
Will consider question in the same
light and act accordingly, though we
have not conversed with single one
of them and are not authorized to
speak for them. The intention of
Governor Davis is to his credit.

SEND HIM TO CoLLEGE.-A good story
is told of Governor Chiltenden, wac was one
of the early Governors of Vermont. He
was quit. an extensive farmer, and in those
days to be Governor did net greatly inter-
fere with the incumbent's ordinary vocation,
as the Legislature was rarely in session any
longer than thirty days, and the Governor
only resided at the Capital during the ses-
sion. The Governor had two sons. One OF
them was boy of bright intellect, and the
other decidedly dull. The old gentleman
thought nature had done enough for the
younger, and that he would make his way
in the world without more than common
school education, but that the elder one
would need all the aid of liberal education
to make up the natural deficiency, and he
was accordingly sent to college, while his
brother was kept on the farm 1t happened
one Spring that among the fruits of the Gov
ernor's herds was very stupid calf, it would
not suck or drink, and no amount CT effort
on the part of father, son, or hired man could
induce him to take his sustenance. After
repeated trials the good mans patience gave
out, and he said to his son: "Freemln, what
on earth shall we do with this stupid fool p
81 don't know, father" was the ready re-
sponse," "unless we send him to college
with Martin.
