1t is the aim of the Board of Commissioners make
it thorough exposition of the Agricultural and Me
chanical Products of the Southern States, Mexico
and Central America but it will be open to compet
tors throughout the country, and the general pre-
MUM list will embrace all articles comprehended in
the general design of an Agricultural and Industrial
Exposition, including special premiums for strictly
Southern products
The premium list, which is now in course of pub.
ication will be on liberal scale, and the rules will
provide for just and impartial system of awards by
competent and disinterested jurors
The Fair Grounds are generally conceded to be
the handsomest in the United States comprising 100
acres, within fifteen minutes ride by street cars
from the center of the city, The grounds shaded
which are of recent construction, are amply sutii-
cent to meet all the necessities of the most extern
sve exhibition.
The Racing Course which is used by the Louisiana
Jockey Club at all its meetings, is justly famous
throughout the country, and the accommodations for
stock are unsurpassed.
1t is the first time that such enterprise has been
inaugural d at the South and being held at time
when the city Of New Orleans is thronged with thou
sands of visitors to participate in the festivities Of the
Carnival it affords unusual nducemeI exhibitors
tom every section of the country.
The commissioners earnestly appeal to the people
of the Southern States lend their aid and encourage
ment to the Exposition and to make it in all respects
complete exhibition of Southern productions and it
hoped that manufacturers producers and others in
every section of the country will participate.
Ample arrangements have been perfected for the
transportation of goods and visitors from every
ton at reduced rates.

They will probably be accompanied by
Mrs, flckens, Miss Greer's aunt,
widow Of Governor Piekens Of South

her as Miss Lucy Holeombe, the belle
Of Marshall, Governor Plokens was
minister to Russia, during Buchanan's
administration, and Mrs, Plckens
spent the first months Of her honey

her children were born,
"A prominent lawyer OF Marshall,
who ought TO have known better, and
who prldes himself on hia familiarity
with the classics, made rash bet with

AN article which appeared in the

calculated to do injustice to II. Gold

an oath TO touch not and handle not

HON. ANDREW ]. mAMILrON

Died at his home in Austin, on the
18th Of April, aged about sixty years.
He was q native of North Alabama,
came to Texas In lS4i-was a mem
Der of the legislature in 1872 and was
representative in congress one term,
from 1859 to 1861. He opposed seces-
sion, left Texas about the middle of the
war and took his stand with the north,
making bitter speeches all over the
north against the south. He received
the commission Of igadier-general
from President Lincoln, but never en-
tered the army. President Johnson
made him military governor of Texas,
and in 1868 he was In the convention
which framed the present bastard con-
stitution. In 1869, as liberal republi-
can, he ran against Davis for governor
and was doubtless elected, but the mill
tary politicians counted Davis in.
This, In few words, is an epitome Of
his public career.
He was a good stump speaker, but by
no means the orator for which some
gave him credit His intellect was
large, but not well balanced. His mn
ture was generous but tickle. He was
devoid of tenacity of purpose, but the
victim Of impulse. In some respects
he was noble, in Others groveling. He is
another victim of wasted opportunities
and dissipation. He ought, from the
gifts of nature and rare opportunities,
to have made lasting impress OH his
generation in this state, but instead he
leaves no monument to perpetuate his
name beyond personal knowledge of
him. But 1t can be truly said he was
not mean nor sordid, but that,
when left unbiased, his ma
ture was noble and magnani-
NOUS. He preferred generous action
to malicious one, and had he alb
stained from the intoxicating bowl and
refused allegiance to the insidious in
political life, he would have erected a
monument of enduring prominence in
the hearts of this state.
He was a brother of the Hon. Nor
gan G. Hamilton, United States sena-
tor from this state, but, except.in per-
sonal appearance, as unlike him as
brothers well could be. Without one
unlSlnd emotion in our hearts, we can
truly say: Requieseat IN pace.

Who can doubt it? Do we not every day
see the vigorous and clear-headed pushing
on to fortune, and the feeble and brain be-
logged tarryiug by the wayl Health gives
energy, rim. What healthy mind con
ceives, healthy body is prompt to execute.
Difficulties which deter the invalid alto
gether, the vigorous man surmounts at a
bound. If we would be successful, let us
first be healthy. The initial step to be taken
toward arriving at that condition, is to rally
the falling energies of the system. AS a
renovant of decaying vital power, Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters may be justly recon-
mended in preference to all other tonics,
since its superiority as an invigorant is the
subject Of daily demonstration. But it Is
far more than simple recuperant of physi-
cal strength; it is a prompt remedy for
bodily Irregularities, particularly of the
stomach, bowels and liver, and reliable
preventive of maladies begotten of mIasma,
impure water, exposure and exhaustion,
the bad effects of which it invariably coun,
teracts.
