Of business for the past two years, and are

Recently published comparisons between
American and English railways are re-
markably favorable to the former, fact
which has largly conduced to their increased
popularity, and secured for them the con-

10 the Editor OF tho Dallas Herald
General a. II. Hawthorne, of Mar
shall, addressed quite large audience
of ladies aud gentlemen nj the court
house on last evening.
He was introduced by DR.. G.. NJ.
Peak, who IN few words stated the
object of the meeting, viz; 70 organ
i2e In Tarrant county similar assOcia-
tIon to those of Harrison, Dallas and
other counties throughout the state,
the object of this society being to so
licit aid from all citizens of Texas to
provide home and competency for
the Hon. Jefferson Davis in our own
state. General II. spoke in very elo-
quent terms Of Mr., DAVIS character as
u statesman, soldier and citizen, eulo-
giving briefly his high and honorable
career.
In conclusion, he appealed to those
present who had worn the gray, who
had fought so gallantly for that noble
cause which he himself had espoused,
to lend their aid in this noble work.
lie appealed to those who had worn
the blue, and who had witnessed the
unyielding patriotism of him who sac
rliiced all save his honor In sustaining
the lost cause; and lastly, but most inn
portant of all, he appealed to woman,
the noble women of the south, who
never faltered in the day of adversely
and trial,
After having addressed the audience,
an association was organized and Off
GERS elected, consisting of DIR. G. NJ.
Peak, president, j. X. Milliken, seore-
tary, and w. j. Boaz, treasurer and
seven competent executives, empow-
cred with authority to appoint sub
committees throughout the county to
solicit subscriptions for this great en-
terprise.
We are confident that 1arrant will
emulate the example of her sister
counties, and cast in her mite.
