DR.. W. A. WEST, our fioaterin the
last legislature, 70 the satisfaction oil
his constituents, was in attendance at
the spelling match last Tuesday even
ing, but declined to participate. We
suppose the DR.. thought the long spell,
he has recently undergone was suf-
fcient to make him graduate without
any extra effort before the public.
WE learn that few days ago, a ne
gro employed by Mr.. VIM. Channell,
about seven miles from this place. was
driving two yoke of. oxen along or
across the railroad track. when pass

of the oxen and injuring the other and
the horse the negro was riding, as well
as hurting the negro SO badly that he
is not expected to recover.

he Is sin perfect health" but, II he does,
don't believe him, for he is not His looks
belle him, and his observation liz mere bra
vado. Few persons, except hypochondriacs
desire TO be Thought mwel, A fresh COM
plexion, n clear eye, happy expression, and
an absence of leanness, indicate that their
possessor enjoys good digestion, sound sleep
and vigorous circulation, three essentials
of health which are fortunately not beyond
the reach of inva ids The surest Medium
for their attainment Is Hostetters Stomach
Bitters, which, by purifying the blood, ban
ish sallowness. and by promoting perfect d.
gestion and sound sleep, keep the body well
nourished, and impart to the face the placid
expression indicative ola clear and unweari-

to good looks than any cosmetic that ever

Death Of ibe Man Who offered NJ, 900.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, April l0.-On
the morning Of the Sth Of April, ut five
o'clock A, NJ, II was announced In the
streets Of Selma, that Colonel George
w. Gayle was dead,
George w, Gayle was u man of more
than ordinary talent. Admitted TO tho
bar ut Cahnba, then the county seat of
Dallas county, Alabama, In 1882, soon
he ranked at tho front of his profess
sion. For the last twenty years ho had
been on the down grade, caused by dis
sipatlon. He was very eccentric, and
was always playing pranks. In 1864
he had Inserted In the Cahaba Gazette,
VI 900, 900 reward for the assassination
of President Lincoln. lie was not
worth ~ many cents. This ro-
ward was not over Gayles signature.
But few months passed after this be-
fore the world was wrapped by electric
flashes of the terrible deed having been
done. Soon the war closed The edl-
tors Of the Cnhaba Gazette were mr.
rested because of the reward offered In
their columns. In the examination
Gayle was found TO be the man who
offered the reward. Gayle was arrest
ed, and confined about one year In
Fortress Monroe He was, however,
mainly through the intercesson of his
wife, by President Johnson, released.
During his confinement In Fortress
Monroe he became partially paralyzed
In his lower limbs, from which he
never recovered.

The Houston Telegraph says the
coming fair to commence at that place
on the 18th Of May next, continuing
five days, will far eclipse any yet held
since the organization Of the associa-
ton. The Telegraph adds:
Applications for room In the floral
and art departments have already been
80 numerous as to take up all the space
allotted to them. The furniture and
clothing departments will be full. The
space for displaying hardware, saws,
ETC., Is nearly all occupied, and the
machinery and agricultural depart
ments will make display far IN eX-
cess of any previous exhibition. The
past week has brought advices from
more than dozen new exhibitors from
st. Louis and Chicago alone, and some
of the former exhibitors from these
points, are asking for twice the space
used by them last year.
The shafting and machinery in pow
er hall will be run by the "Ames' en-
CINE, furnished by w. l.. Cushing Il
Morse, of Galveston, and in this con-
nection we wish to say, that the great
est want of interest in the sixth annual
state fair of Texas may be found among
our own mechanics and dealers. A
Chicago firm dealing in agricultural
implements, introduced at our last fair
their plows and reapers, together with
other things in their line, and they
state that the sales have largely ex-
ceeded their most sanguine ex-
pectations. While unusual in
terest is being displayed by
those abroad In our annual exhibit
tions, and there Is a proper emulation
among the dealers and manufacturers
of other states to be fully represented
at our fairs, our people are tagging be-
hind,and notup tothe mark. The me-
chanics, farmers, citizens, merchants,
manufacturers, and men of every trade
and avocation, who can, ought to be
represented at the next fair, and our
stock men must not be behind in pro-
ducing for exhibition the best and
most improved specimens of stock that
Texas can afford.

The democrats of Dallas county
have had "hig meeting at the court
house and decided not to hold NOM
mating convention for candidates for
the constitutional convention. The
good people of Tarrant and Ellis coun.
ties should make good denominations, or
Dallas will endeavor to play the same
game as Collin county, and send two
delegates from this district Fort
Worth Democrat.
In reply to the remarks of the Dem
ocrat we have to say that no "big
meeting' has been held here. At the
suggestion or inquiry of Major Van
Zandt, of Fort Worth, chairman of the
democratic committee ofthis senatorial
district, by communication with George
N. Aldredge, Esq, chairman ofthe con-
gressional district committee, merely
as timely suggestions to avoid con-
fusion, Judge William II. Hord, our
county chairman, published call for
an advisory meeting, in order that he
ihiShe iSdih thC WloutS vi uetnOcruLS OH
the subject of nominations. 1t was a
public conference open to all democrats.
The result was that twelve gem
tlemen met. The opinions of most of
them, seven, we think, were emphat-
ically given that from present indica-
tions, no convention was necessary;
that each county would possibly have
q favorite candidate, and only in case
of such multiplicity of candidates as
might endanger the election of a radi-
cal candidate, or some other unforeseen
contingency, would nominating con-
vention become advisable. By silent
or open approval every
one present shared these views, and so
Judge Hord properly announced
through the press. There are many
rood and true democrats in this coun-
" who are not well pleased with some
