TiM Galveston News, In endorsing
tho position Of the HERALD In regard
TO wide streets and alleys, perhaps ow-
Ing 10 u wanLo Of fullness on our pnrt
has fallen into partial error about The
plan Of Dallas. We should have said
that IN some of the newer portions Of
our city, streets have been laid out of
respectable width, and in several diyls-
ions there IRE alleys. Nearly all
grounds now being laid Off are better

The section known as the Cedars is the
most literally planned in these re.
spects; the Central railroad division
also has wide streets and alleys, but
lacks depth to the lots. The prospect
for various new through short streets,
very much needed In some localities IL

RHODE ISLAND is electing a senator
to succeed William Sprague ON the ith
of March next. 1t seems that General
Burnside is desperately anxious to oc-
cnpy the post. AS republican is
bound to have it, we have no special
choice, but think Burnside is about rs
small, mentally, rs little Rhody is ter
ritorially, and therefore think. they
ought to select man of heavier cali
Der. Since radcalism has so ruthless
~ invaded the doctrine of state rights,
many think there is no longer any
sense in Rhode Island being equal to
New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio in
the senate. That idea will grow.

'rIIE reception of salt in Dallas, man
ulactured at the Grand Saline, on the
line of the Texas and Pacific railroad,
in Van Handt county, deserves more
than bare mention. 1t Is II beautiful
and clean article, and comes from n
saline which has been more or less
worked for thirty years. The saline is
considered sufficient TO justify large
works, and bids fair to become asourcc
ofheavy supply to the country. Until
the completion of the railroad, like
other latent sources of wealth in Texas,
1t could not be prolltably developed on

localities in our state mt which salt Is

IT, the Bdu.r u a.s EeW National Era and Citizen:
In your paper of Dec. 18th am reported as
having opposed the resolutions on Civil Rights
passed by the National Convention at Wash
ington. did not oppose the resolutions,
but on the contrary supported them in a
speech which I began but on account of
Interruptions did not finish. 1 stated dis
tinctly, that We did not desire any special
privileges as colorsd men but that we wanted
all the rights enjoyed by white men.
Nothing more nor nothing less. We fully
expect the resistless Republican majority
which came into Congress, on the Phi!adel-
phia Platform, to redeem the pledges on
which they were elected. now while they have
ample power. If any representative, were
Conservative and tiuid that the party
which he belongs, has lingering doubts as to
the power Of Congress, let him rcmenibe,
that the party is unanimous for the measure.
Let him trust, rather, to the wisdom of the
people than to his own doubt. The unani-
nous judgment Of the Republican party can
hardly be wrong. But if Equalityis uncon
stItutional in this Republic, let US know it
and then amend the constitution. Let no
man fear, that which is right will be
popular. Wo feel assured that the 43rd
Congress will not adjourn without laying the
pyramid of equal rights, built up by the Re
publican party, and standing upon its sum
NIT we too may see the sun of liberty i'll
all its glory, and in the fulness thereof, forget
the wrongs inflicted, and the rights so long
denied us.

some frtghtfuI "Reminiscences of slavery.
In presenting the following narrative,
have to depend upon my memory for the
facts detailed to me more than fifty years ago
by persons who were fully informed on the
subject, aided at present by two other per-
sons now living, who were then very young,
and indstinct as to their rocolections of the
strange occurrences. In addition, the records
of the Livingston Circuit and County Courts
furnish some further light.
Some time between the years Of 1905 and
1907 gentleman by the name of DR.. Chas.
Lewis with his family, moyed from Virginia
and settled on a military tract Of land on
the Ohio river, some five or six miles above
the town of Smithland, in Liyington county
His family consisted Of his wife, three sons
Liburne, Charles, and Isham-two daughters
and some ten or more slaves. That part of
the county was then wild, and its popula-
ton sparse. The Doctor selected the place to
build, cleared away the forest, and erected
log cabins for the whites and blacks of the
family, opened up farm, put it in cultiva-
ton, and gave his residence the name of
Rocky Hill. His eldest son, Lilbufne, was
also q married man, he and his wife residing
in his fathers family at Rocky Hill. In 1907
the Doctors lady died; soon after her death
Mrs. Lilburne Lewis also died. They were
buried at Rocky Hill. Their graves were
enclosed by a post-and-rail fence. The
whole OF the white family In their intercourse
with the inhabitants bad made the Inn
preston that, in point of literary attainnents,
elegance of manners, and accomplished de-
meanor, they had no equals in the county,
and had occupied as high position and -
great social advantages AZ any in their
native state. 1t was, however noticed, that
thes layes were treated with cruel severity.
In 1909 Lilburne was married TO q young
LADY of the county, Miss L. Kutter, her fami-
ly of high standing, and herself faultless in
form and beauty and progressing accom-
nlishmeuts. The Doctor about that time
left Rocky Hill with his daughter, and went
to Salem, or that neighbofhood, leaving the
farm and most OF tbs slaves with bis three
