nor" was announced by snme unpoet-
ieal onss, with the unWeleome an
nouneement that they had but thirty
minutes h stay, Before the party had
rarely begun 10 eat blum, cd Tom
Dorwin sung out, can aboard aud
Instantly all was eonhlsion- Entreat p
les for little more time were unayail-
Ing, 30 the visitors, without getting
scarcely a glimpse Of the city, took up
the line Of march 10 The depot, Ar
rlylng there, after cordial greetings
aud shaking Of hands, they resumed
their places IN the cars, The whistle
lllew, the bell rang, aud the distin-
gplshed visitors gllded on their way,
very little the wiser for their visit 10
Dallas.
The reporter sincerely regrets that
the stay VI the visitors was not pro-
longed, aud would be glad 10 bee them
all visit the city again, but not on an
excursion, lilo don't dOte on exour-
slons, but there are some people who
do, He looks upon them, IN u general
thing, ~ fraud upon the community,
upon railroads, hotels aud themselves,
OF course there are always some high
toned, honorable parties connected
with them, hut the average fraud gem
orally manages 10 ingratlate himself
and stamps his impress upon the entire
affair aud the party OF yesterday was
no exception, The reporter does not
desire that hls remarks should be taken
~ peraonal 10 the gentlemen aud la

aud every unparalleled mind will UNI
hestatlngly endorse them IN the Pb-

what m0nOtonOus, aud the sooner the
country has brief respite from them
the better pleased Will all parties be.
The hotel arrangements yesterday
we're wretched Under the personal
supervision OF the gentleman In charge
the reporter looked for better results.
Certainly he should have learned by
experience, and the public will begin
10 think, unless he manages better IN
the future, that he has pronied but lit
tic from his connection with the varl-
GUS excursions that have afflicted the
country for the last quarter of
century.
