Tho Fort Worth papcra threaten
10 rot upn combination between the
voters Of Ells aud 'fnrtont for the
purpose Of preventing the election
Of any candidate from Dallas county
to the constitutional Convention.
This thcyisay will boa just pun
ishmont for our Obslinacy and bad
faith, in not doing ~ we were told.
As for the obstinacy, our Fort Worth
friends are ut liberty TO give our
course what name they please, but
MS for tho bad iaithc that Ia a charge
they can not establish by shadow
of evidence .|.
We warned them from tho first
that the people of Dallas county
We're opposed to II District Conven-
ton. In confirmation of this they
refused time and again to send del
egates t0 meet rllosc from Tarrant
and Elils. And yet, in tho face of
this, the Fort Wcrth influence was
powerful enough to drag tho Dem
ocrats Of Ellis county into nomn-
ating convention, and because we
adhere 80 our oft.dcclarcd rcsolu-
ton we are threatened by the vol
luminous Standard and pondcrous
Democrat with tho loss OF our rep
rcsentation in thc Constitutional
Conventions.
SO far us the mere place Of resi-
dencc Of candidates for the Con
vontion is concerned, We would just
rs leave vote for such men as Rca-
gan, Throckmorton, West, Ballcn-
ger, Hancock, and many others, we
could name, to represent Dallas

our own Court llbusc. There is no
local interest to be subserved in the
Convention, and We have no prefer
ence for u Dallas man, per sc, over II
Tarrint county lman, and if our
Fort Worth friends will bring out
two better mon titan any wo have
in Dallas, we shah vote for them.
They must, however, show better

We have been frequently asked
where the seed Of this valuable
clover can be procured. From Col
onel Crockett, Grange Agent in tins
city, we learn that it sold in St
Louis, by the firm of Scrape, Thorn
as & Co, ut one dollar per quart,
and sent by mail, postage (thirty
cents) to accompany the order
Colonel @. says one quart will seed
an acre, planted in drills three feet
apart. By this mode of planting il
will, however, require two Seasons
to develop n full crop. To effect
this the first season, the seed should
be sown broadcast, which wopr re.
quire at least three n.cks of seed
per acre. Sold oy the bushel, the

MAJOR rnowN Am -f.an u EI:ALD.


In our article Of yesterday, in
speaking Of Judge Ferris, and
condomning certain old-tine Texas
politicians for their opposition
TO free schoo,s,j we had no
reference to the candidates in this
district. II our correspondent, Major
Brown, whose letter We print this
morning, willpass nmorning in our
editorial room, in reading our State
exchanges, he will fnve no fault to
find with our statement. He will
discover that there are old7time
Texas politicians, some of whom are
candidates for tho Convention, who
are not advocates of FREQ schools.
He will also find newspapers sup.
porting thcmin these views, one of
them, at least, daily paper pub.
lished near the seat Of government
of the State.
The HERALD has not misunder-
stood Major Browns position on this
subject, and has not msstatcd it !;
and regrets to see that he regards
COMMUNICATION of Judge Ferris as
necessarily implying condemnation
of himself. This is not fair to a
journal which has spent good deal
in disseminating the Majors opin-
ions and views, and which has in
most instances heartily endorsed
them, especially those on this very
subject OF common schools.

silence towards Russia, now declare

There is little doubt that but for
the firm attitude Of England and
Russia, Bismarck would ere this
have laid violent hands upon Bel
GUM, and forced France into an
other disastrous war AS affairs now
stand, this able and ambitious min
lister, by the attitude Of England
and Russia it held at bay, but any
day, with his unbounded audacty,

straints and deluge Europe with

its Continuance cannot be depended
