AIMING THAT Don't ~ oRII.

The repeal Of the civil rights bill is
simply question Of time. The white
race revolts at It's unnatural conditions
and the country ,caents the fa
natical zeal which devised it.
The wicic temper Il spirit q
the people, north and south, outside o
a few vicious negroes, cormorant car
petbaggers, and radical outrage manu-
tacturers, is against it. The thing is
already ignored virtually at the north
and in the south it has disappointed
the expectations Of the negroes who
had become possessed with the ide;
that there was sort of forty acres
and mule element in it, if not "mll
lions" Tie practical workings of the
bill, so far, have disappointed its pro
jectors. The north ignores it and the
south simply lets ii defeat itself. 1t is
one of those outcroppingS OF the war
born Of fauaticisn, which will hang
itself, if rope enough is given. The
hope that it would create the widest
consternatium and the bitterest hOstil'
ity accompanied 10y sufficient outbreaks
to give an excuse for the use OF
troops, has been disappointed. In
this state, outside of few coun'
ties where the negroes predominant
the bill crcgtes no more sensation
than patent Office report. Our people,
white and black, do not intend to per.
nit this iDsidious and malicious bill
to create trouble the white man does
not thrust himself upon the black man,
and the black man does net seem to
desire to he ugly, 10y claiming the emp
tygprivileges of the civil rights BILL
The repeal Of the law 10y the next con-
gress, or its amendment, will he nrged
by as many northern as southern men,
The bill hears too, directly upon ma
terial interests which may he effected
MOTTO enlist the attention of other than
southern people.
Il is the wish Of the white people o
the south TO educate, elevate and chris
tianize the negro and make him, as fal
as his nature will admit, a neral, so
clal and political success. 1t can b'
done only 10y time, and not hy the sud
den trausp!anl1ng from the corn fiel'
to the drawing room, from the field t.
the rostrum.

HOW THE EINTERNATE0NAE BiII. rs
RECEIVED IN NEW YORK..

A special to the Galveston News,
dated 18th instant, says: 'lnquiring
among Moses Taylor, Kennedy, Wet
more, Marquand and others, find
disappointment manifest Mt having to
take land instead of bonds, but g:eat
vagueness exists regarding the value
of the concession which has been Sc
cured The company's bonds ave not
expected to advance, as considerable
delay is anticipated in realizing from
the land, which is not available ms
collateral security in the present state
of the money market. The leading
stockholders intend to confer shortly
and determine their present policy.
Colonel Moody considers that the de-
sire to deal equitahIy, AS wc!l as the de
liberation manifested by Texas, has
impressed capitalists favornbly and
improved the credit OF the state, which
would have been impaired had any OF
its securities been the SUI ject of litiga-
ton. Hon. Edward Plumb is graliiied
that the difficulty is settled, deeniing
the terms secured are better than Is
generally supposed. He considers the
prospects of the road good and feels
that self-interest will lead 10 its icing
soon extended to Austin"
The Dallas weekly herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1885, 1875-03-20

There is no place in the state which
has been more completely metamor-
rhosed than Galveston has since the
war. The whole tone and spirit of it,
socially and commercially, has
changed. Progress has faced its
southern characteristics and grated
upon il northern and European habits,
tastes and ideas. "rhe old, familiar
facesr are seen but seldom on her
streets or in her sdiOns. The very ar
chitecture of the houses and dress of
the people has changed. Society is
composed largely of new people aud
an old resident or visitor would lind
himself quite stranger and miss the
familiar southern accent and a certain
general softness and graciousnesS
peculiar to southern women of the best
TYNE. There is more luxury and style
than there was under the old regime,
but il is questionable whether the so.
ciety is rs polished, cultivated or select.
The standard of admission to its sacred
precincts is more one of money than
of birth, breeding, culture or talent.
This must needs be the case IN all
places rapidly built up. The first
generation do the accommodating ncces-
sary to found family, the second have
the money and leisure to elevate them
selves in the work of refinement and
distinction. There are few old fam
lilies distinguished 10y their services,
talents and hereditary high social posi-
ton, vino form within themselves
very charming circle. They partici'
pate in the general business Of society,
but draw among themselves an inviSi-
BILE line of distinction between the nOu-
ueuu riche and themselves They are
in the minority and many of them
poor, and cannot hope long to stem
current which is rapidly making Gal
weston society material, and money its
god.

SOME TIMES woman is thought cold

COLONEL JOHN G. JAMES, of the
Texas Military Institute at Austin, has
received the appointment as member
of the board of visitors to the United
States Naval academy. This is the
first appointment of a visitor to An
napolis ever made from Texas.
WE are in receipt of ticket of nvi-
tation to the first annual grand mas
queradc and fancy dress ball, to be

Men. The motto on the ticket is,
"Fun, Folly and Fantasy -Mirth, Mn
sic and Mystery" Thanks-will en-

The TIMES is the name of new,
first-class newspaper--daily and week

THE court house of Hood county, at
Granbury, Il fine new stone building,
was destroyed by fire Oh Friday night
of last week. The fire originated in
the district clerks office, and was
thought to be the work of an incendi-
ary. All the county records We're burn
ed, with the sherill's papers and law
library belonging to Judge Williams.
THE New Orleans sTimes,special from
Washington says that the party of
senators who are going to Mexico will
stop few days in New Orleans on
their way. Senators Logan, Dennis,
Gordon and Ransom are of the party.
They viii! go from New Orleans to
Vera Cruz ia an United States vessel,
which fact causes much curiosity as to
the object of their visit.

the disagreement between the two
houses on the general appropriation

cede from its amendment increasing

TrfE EXCUESgOS AeD CONVENTION
EMEsE.

Ifthere are any two things Of the
day that are thoroughly overdone and
have become horcs of the first magni-
tude, they are conventions and eNcur-
sions. 1t is the rarest thing in the
world that the representative men, the
men of the highest talent or position,
are seen figuring in them. The time
approaches for an epidemic of eXcur-
sions and conventions of all sorts. The
average convention is pretty much al
ways the same thing. There is the
grandiluuuent call, the cut and dried
resolutions, the usual amount of bun
combe, winding up with fulsome thanks
for the privilege of having been pro-
miscuously dead headed, with the
threat of meeting again and going
through the performance again and
accomplishing about as much as before.
The excursion, though, is the greatest
of the two bores. a party of ladies
and gentlemen may innocently make
up u travelling party and start cut on IA
trip of recreation. The professional
eXcursionist hears of it and rings HIM
self in From that moment it isan eX-
cursion, and every city passed through
swe Is the list until the railway COM
panies and hotels find themselves sad
died with motley crowd of people
who have no definite idea of where
they are going and make their badge.
which is generally a suggestion ofsome
professional excursionist, answer every
purpose. An occasional distinguished
character is sometimes pressed into
service and does the speech-making.
He addresses mayors and councils in
set phrases of excursion eloquence and
is often too full for uttcrance. VI
course, there are excursions that are le-
gitimate and proper, like the proposed
one of the Central railway company,
where the dissemination of reliable in
formation is the object. We are :ast
arriving at that sage when the news
that an excursion is coming, or con-
vemtion is to be held, will make people
howl with anguish ard call upon the
rocks to fail upon them and hide them.
The india rubber elasticity of the press
is tested wonderfully by these two in
stitutions, the excursion aud the con-
ventioIi, .lill there, are Us many "nIcm-
ber+ of the press't taetilg1ancc corpo-
rals) as there are generals, colonies and
Judges in small town. We will well
come anything that merits the name
of aconventiOn or excursion, but hogus
affairs, gotten up Iy professional eX-
cursiomi,ts and conveniioHists will lie
given wide birth.

cclored people. They preferred, as
as mass. to be by themselves, in
the cars. steamboats, or hotels !

remarked that not single outrage
or disturbance through all the south

not be traced to the unjust admins

cause.
