MISS RIsLEy's CONCERN A RARE
TREAT.

No one who was present ut Fields
opera house, Tuesday evening, will
question the Justice Of pronouncing
Miss Nealle Rlsley's concert grand
success. Every cne went In anticlpa-
ton of delight, but, excepting those
who had previously been charmed by
her melody, every one was agrecably
disappointed. Her powers of song are
naturally Of the highest order, and, for
nearly four years, have been cultivated
under the best masters of New York.
II was our pleasure TO see much of her
on her arrival in that city, aud to
bear her first efforts there In private
circles under the keen ears Of some of
the most famed masters Of America,
among them the celebrated Mora, who
Mt once became her friend and assured
us that her powers were extraordinary,
and only required training TO make
her famous.
On tho 18th of October, 1870, in the
magnificent hall of the Young Mems
Christian association, of New York,
In their opening concert, before n Sc
lect audience of three thousand, she
made her first appearance, in n splen-
did array of acknowledged musical
talent, being known only to few
friends as the Little Girl from Texas
but before she went through the first
piece, curiosity was on tiptoe and II
was whispered (responsively) all
through the vast hall, oshe is little
Texas grlw All hearts were touched
in surprise and admiration, and she
was rapturously recalled three times
after the first piece. The enthusiasm
followed her to the close. Since then,
she has led the choir in st. pnuPs
church, on Broadway, and continued
her studies, having with her for the
last two years u young sister, who bids
fair to shed luster on our state.
We make this mention Of Miss Ris-
ley, rather than remarks on her tri-
umph Tuesday evening, leaving conf
mendation to her audience, and trust
Ing she may be greeted tonight by II
crowded house. E.s.
Miss Rives maintained the high po-
sition She has 50 recently and so Justly
won In this community, and was ap.
plauded with heartfelt enthusiasm.
Her two songs ''Robert roi QueJ aime'
and the Knocking Bird" were exqu Is.
lite. Colonel and Major Baylor, Maj or
Obenchain and Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph A
Harris happily added to the pleasures
of the occasion, in song and instru-
mental music, while the Cosmopolites
added to their laurels as band.
AT the conclusion, by reclamation Of
the delighted audience, Captain $. j.
Adams, DR.. A. A. Johnson and Rev.
8. ID. Davenport were appointed COM
mittee to wait on Miss Risley and re-
quest her to sing again tonight at
the same place. twill be seen elsewhere
In our columns that she has consented
to do so. We trust, therefore, that the
good people of Dallas will turn out in
force aud give the Little Texas
Grip u rousing benefit.

PERSONAL.

We had the pleasure, yesterday, of
meeting an old-tlme friend, in the per-
son of the Rev. John M. Cochran, pas
tor of the Presbyterian church in Ma
vasota, EN- route to visit his octagena-
rian father in old Virginia. We re-
member Mr.. Cochran rs n ministering
angel among the sick and dying in the
great yellew' fever epidemic at indiana
Ia, in the long ago, when he was u
young man.
We were also pleased to meet Mr..
Guy G. Rivers and Mr.. Jennings, of
Marshall, the former of whom has re-
turned to dwell fora timeagain in Dal-
las, where he has many friends.

the present term of the district court

take the occasion to repeat what seems
to be the general opinion of the peo-
pie and bar, that Judge Barksdale
makes an excellent officer, and dis
patches business with every facility
consistent with public justice.
The people seem well pleased with
our present district and county officers,
which is gratifying evidence that our
former condition has been greatly inn
proved. The fiat has once more gone
forth that the people rule. if,

This is the last day allowed veterans to

THE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. AND
ROMAN.

Cor. Ben WILSON in aspeech recently
delivered in Wetzel county, touched upon
a subject which, though not frequently
thought of, vet is ofgreat Importance, and
calls for serious consideration. In speak
ing of the Roman Republic, and the ease
with which it became merged into an
Empire, he alluded to the fact that this
change was readily affected because Rome
was single Republic, and thus, was re-
quircd very little difficulty in bringing
about strong centralized rule, which Of
itself naturally took an imperial shape.
To avoid this very thing, and to
preserve us free Republic for all time
the founders of our government adopted
the federativc system. That is, each State
should BE-, in itself, a separate government,
controlling its own internal affairs, yet
delcgating certain rights and acknowledge
ing certain allegiance to the one gener-
al whole, in So far as those rights and
that allegiance should be for mutual
and individual benefit They knew
that the very moment: these State
lines were broken or infringed
upon, acting as they do, as barriers
against centralized power, the fedora
tivcSy>tcm would be endangered; one sin
gle Republic would readily be formed; and
from this, IL in the case of Rome, the
transition to the Empire would be an
easy process.
Yet the very thing our fathers feared
we witness at this day. This is 4 strong
and decided inclination on the part of the
party in power, to break down these State
lines. 1t is getting to he So common now
Cor the General Government to interfere
i'm the local affairs of the different States,
that il cXCitcS no surprise; no thought;
no comment, and therefore no anxiety.
But ~ sure rs We live to-day, these acts
of National interference are bringing
forth dangerous results. Years since
they would not have been tolerated; to-
day they are boruc with because done
under the pretext of Constitutional same
ton. \ little more, and we will I've told
that they are absolutely necessary for the
stability Of tn" government. Then will
follow the consolidated Unified Rcpub-
lie, and then the GRAND IMPERIAL Gov
ERNMENT. LoUISN APoLEoN said, "The
Empire is peace. GRANT has said, LET
us have peace.

l. false, and without shadow of foun-
datlon to rest upon. 1t had its sole ORR
gin i'll the mcndaciouS brain of some super

who seemed anxious To furnish some eX-
cusc for the outrage pcrpetratcd upon me
by the government after my return from

upon my fidelity, and Solely because I,cd<

made n prisoner ofStatc. But the charge
as soon rs made, although my mouth, H.
IL prisoner, was sealed, was Indignantly
denounced by the Republican Paris cor
respondents of the New York Times and
T'ibu,,e; it was authoritatively denied by
the NatinIdi intelligence. the then Off
cial organ Of the government, and is re-
PEELED by the archives and correspondence
of the State Department. | should be-
