The SIERRA SEMINARY, Miss Clapp and
Miss Babcock, teachers, closed its school
term yesterday, the exercises on the oc-
casion including d review of studies and
other appropriate proceedings. The
school was established by Its present
principal teacher, by whom 1t has been
sustained, with such assistance as she
has chosen. for twelve years. 1t now
numbers about forty pupils. The exer-
clses in the forenoon, we are informed,
were principally reading. In the after
noon they included spelling and speak
ing. closing with presentation OF medals
and some hearty talk by teachers to
pupils The spelling was excellent on
the part Of some, perfect. even to lack OF
hesitation during an hours severe
exercise Oar Imagination won lili-
inmate, nor effort enliven, these prosy
statements Of fact. We think that more
natural and self-possessed young speak
ers than Albert Muller, Crosby Whitman
and some girls whom we cannot call by
name. could not be found elsewhere.
Our sympathy. however. is more with
those sensitive ones who took so much
to heart a lack of equal success. There
is no dizziness or stupidity from deli
cheney of interest and ambition IN the
school. Can any teachers create Il bet
ter groundwork than this !! Think a
like number of scholars elsewhere, on
frmer ground, more resolute, self-reliant
and ambitious, and whose progress is
guided more uniformly in the right dl-
rection, cannot be found. We have the
memorandum for more extended re-
port of the exercises at this school yes
terday, which will be given to our read
erS tomorrow.

Information for Immigrants.

7TTl 7l7TNTfl -,
Dallas county and the induce
ments it offers to those seeking o
home in Texas.
The first and most important
item to u farmer, when asked to
make his home in u country is, the
soil, its nature, its capacity for pro
ducing both as to quality and
variety. III Gti
The greater portion of Dallas
county, is ,',black waxy land, with
soil from two to twenty feet deep,
that never will wear out; this to
many persons in other states, will
sound very strange, but it is true,
so far as any one has ever been
able TO test fifteen successive crops
of wheat have been raised in this
county on the same piece Of
land, and the last was rs good as
the first. Lands that have been in
cultivation for twenty-five years
are as productive now as
they have ever been, and such
thing as manuring lands is un-
known in this county.
This county will produce one balc
ofcotton 10 The acre, corn frcm forty
to sixty bushels, wheat from twenty
to forty bushels, oats from forty to
sixty bushels, barley fifty bushels,
inlet three tons, hungarian grass
two tons, sorgum eighty-fve gallons.
For peaches this county cant bo
beat; apples, pears, plums, appri-
cots, and every variety Of grapes,
as well rs vegetables OF every des-
cription grow finely, and good
dates, figs and bananas have been
grown .here, also castor beans
have never been tried to any ex-
tent; but from the specimens that
We have seen, VIC are satisfied that
they could be grown successfully.
WOOD AND WATER. E
Dallas county is watered by the
Trinity river, running nearly
through the centre, and the West,
East and Elm forks of Trinity,
Whitcrock, Rowlee and muddy
creeks, Spring creek, Mountain
creek, Bear creek, Long creek,
North and South Mesquite creeks.
PrafieHickory, Ten-mile, Five-mile,
Grapevine and Denton creeks, be.
sides q number of other small
streams. Notwithstanding this is
prairie county ut has more wood
and that better distributed than the
counties north or west Of us.
RAILROADS.
The Houston & Texas Central
Railroad now completed to Red
River, runs through the centre of
this county from north to south,
tho Texas Pacific trAverses tho
county from east to west, and cross
es the Central at the city of Dallas.
The Dallas and Wichita Railroad
when built, will run from Dallas
northwest, the Dallas & Palestine
Railroad southeast, and should the
St. LOUIS \ Springfield 4 Rio del
Norte road BIO built, MS in all prob
ability wilbitwill.travarse this
county from northeast to tho south

Dallas county already has greater
