Fruit Growers Fair.

1t cannot be charged.that our people are
unsy mpathetic in the matter of the interests
championed by the Fruit Growers Associa-
ton. st. Patrick's Hall of evenings during
the recent Fair presented most animated
spectacle. From one to two thousand per-
sons-ladies, gentlemen and children
were constantly in motion among the tables
examining the attractive specimens of hor-
ticulture and Horticulture on exhibition.
That they did not remain as fixtures, but
were constantly giving away to fresh
crowds of visitors, was evident to an OBJ
server near the stairway. That passage
was constantly thronged with masses of
people going and coming
The entertainment was quite charming
one, and every body appeared we'll pleased.
OF course there must be as yet considerable
poverty in the matter of variety, but there
was great deal of excellence in certain
details. Thus the peaches and some of the
clusters of grapes were splendid. We OBJ
served, too, some russell apples of Louisiana
growth that settle tie question. of Southern
grown apples. They were quite respect
able. Several species of variegated leaves
apparently of water plants, were lovely
AS youthful enterprise, the Fair was g
success, aud promises to become one of the
most popular institutions of New Orleans

What some of the constituency OF
the members of the Convention very
much fear is that this one idea OF
retrcnchment and reform which
seems TO have taken so complete
possession OF some gentlemen, VIII
run the Convention into the very
extreme of economy, and instead OF
adopting u government liberal, gen
erous, and ut the same time Justly
economical, the danger Is that a
very picayunish organic law viii be
the result Of the incubatlons at
Austin. Tho failure TO appoint Il
stenographer is perhaps not so great
matter in itself although 1t would
have been well received by the PEG
pie as the most ctlectual means OF
full and satisfactory information
that could have been adopted but
the debntcs and votes on the Ques-
ton show very clearly strong eIc-
ment of the most extreme
Economists = economists par eject
lence-against which the statesmen
of tho Convention must guard, Y

! A correspondent, "Publus," in
to.day's HERALD, seconds the sue
gestion made some weeks since by
"Civis," bringing forward the name
of ex.Gov. Throckmorton as Il candi-
date upon the Democratic ticket for
Vice President of the United States

Throckmorton, and we have no

its statesmen, is extremely doubt.

harm in its giving expression to its
views through the press and in its
conventions, when the occasion
shall render it proper to do so. One
of the leading questions In tho next
canvass will be rotrenchment and
reform in the administration of the
Government, and with this the
name of Throekmorton is but asyn-
onym. 70 endorse him il but to
endorse this policy. And whatever
other differences there may be in
the party upon questions Of finance,
there is none with the people upon
the necessity of rctrenchment and
reform. We can see no good reason
why the Democracy Of Texas has
not us much right to present can.

whole party, as the Democracy Of
any other State, and we hope it will
