A FINE IMMIGRATION SCHEME.

VIC. Wagley and Robert Lockart, Of the
firm of Wagley n Lockart, are b0th proinl-
nent, wealthy and reliable citizens o, Hous,
ton, In their own right, and rs authorized
agents, they hold subject to disposal some OF
the most valuable real estate property In
this city, and thousands OF acres OF iana IN
the best sections of Texas. For the
small sum Of three dollars, one takes the
chance OF becoming the lawful owner Of
Texas property worth from three hundred 10
eighteen thousand dollars. So far as regards
the standing OF the managers, that is hlat-
ter beyond the possibility OF caVil.

THE following specimen lie we ex.
tract from the Indianapolis speech OF
that venomous human reptile, Senator
Morton, of Indiana:
All the negroes ask Is TO he let alone.
They know very well that they can
not cope with the whites in any strug-
gle with arms. They have little prop
erty and comparatively few arms.
They are not able to defend themselves.
These wicked calumnies are made the
pretext for assassinations in every
part of the south. The White leaguers
or the kuklux--for they are the same
thing-go cunning for negroes. They
hunt them like squirrels, they murder
them singly and by the score, upon
false pretexts or none at all. In many
cases white republicans are murdered:
1t is not war of races 1t is n war OF
one race upon another, and, broadly,
it is n war against the republicans OF
the south, white and black. This IS
not from apprehensions ofsocial equal,
ity or fear of the civil rights bill, but
to make this a white mans govern
ment, and reduce the negroes as
nearly as possible to slaves.

THE CONSEQUENCE.

How many mothers are there in our
land, how many, reader, in the circle of
your own acquaintance, who have given
up all for their children &? We have Just
read the assertion that affection often
fails TO attain the best ends through un-
wise direction.'i
There is many a devoted mother"
patient, untiring and faithful, wishing
above all things to do her duty by her
children, who by an unwise direction of
her affection for them, is "planting
wrinkles in her brow Of youth"
1t is one thing to be a good house
keeper, quite another to be a successful
home-maker. When children are ouite
young, the most that they require is
diligent care for their bodily needs, and
many mothers, in exercising this care.
forget or lose sight of the growing de-
mands Of the social and moral natures
of their children.
1t is all too common for mothers OF
growing families to neglect society, and
in common parlance "to grow rusty ~
in dress, manners and speech, think that
they have no time for books and papers:
in short, to make the petty details OF
everyday life the great center around
which all their Interests revolve.
The home world in this way becomes
in few years pitiably narrow, and un-
satisfactory to the children growing up
within it, In the very nature of things
they cannot feel the interest in all its
workings that the mother does-indeed,
in her zeal to discharge her duty, she
not unfrequently assumes what should
be their burdens. As a consequences
the entire family finally come to regard

fact. We see the effect, and full well
we know that there has been a cause
What is it, and how removed? Those
who have crept into the shadow OF their
years, cannot now hope to undo the mis-

THE APOSTLE OF RIGHTMOURNBTH.

The B9letin of Friday uttered la
mentation not loud but deep, because
the honorable House of Representatives
in session assembled did see fit and
proper to extend to several ladies the
courtesy of n seat inside the bar, and
give respectful consideration to a meas
ure that they proposed. In this matter
the sage Of the Bulletin declares that the
"HOuse exceeded its legitimate sphere
Of right and duty" Weshudder to con-
template his pangs and contortions,
when the Woman Suffrage memorial,
with its hundreds of names, is presented.
Now if it is impossible for James
OMeara to be on hand to post the House
at n critical moment, concerning the
legitimate limit of its right and duty,
we suggest that special telegraphic COM
munieation be established Immediately,
between the Bulletin Office and the Leg
islative Chambers, so that our indiscreet
representatives may be enabled to re-
ceive advice from headquarters quickly
and to the point. This is manifestly
the only way to keep these solons from
frequent departure from right" "But
if in spite of all the sage can say'' the
honorable body will persist in giving
ear to petitions, and allowing the citi-
zens of the State it is supposed to rep
resent TO present memorials, we think
that as an act of mercy there should be
an appropriation made at once to pro-
cure, at the expense of the State, sufli-
cient soothing syrup, or other mild
soporific, to keep this individual nerves
in state of quietude; else his outraged
sense of right and duty will surely over
power him.
