AN NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. IN THE LONE
STAR STATE.
Travels and Observations of willis q
Webs- ESQ, from Austin 20 Waco.

In a letter from Waco, under date of June
2, Mr. Willis s. Webb thus writes to his bus
iness partner, Mr.. w. w. Woollen:
Wearrived at this place last evening and
camped on Waco creek in the suburbs of
the city We left Austin Tuesday last at
noon. came through by Circleville, Bolton
and other small places. All the way from
Austin through is prairie, except at some
of the streams which have valleys and con-
siderable timber along them. Thesdirection
is northeast from Austin. / must-say had
heretofore seen much OF Texas in many
counties but have never seen such a con-
tinuous extent of good country any where.
We left Austin on the Georgetown road and
passed through the county seat OF William
son county through that portion of Travis,
and all through Williamson, and entering
Bell county, passing on in the direction OF
Bolton through Salado on the Salado river,
nine miles from Bolton This is one of the
prettiest and best regulated towns in the
state-fne college and beautiful residence
shaded with live oak, the China tree, and
other native trees, which nature has far sur
passed man IN arranging for beauty and COM
fort Here is the fines of water bursting
out of the rocks, boiling up as large es
barrel in some places, and in many Others in
smaller orifees in the rocks. Here we
stopped and quenched oar thirst from the
fountains which God has so wisely pro-
vided for all Here no whisky or vinOSs
drinks are sold. 1t being prohibited by Law
for six miles square. Here is fine foot
Suspension wire bridge over the Salado for
the accommodation OF the school children.
Surrounding this place is enc of the best
farming countries ever saw, and the finest
prospect for crops of all the cereals and cot
ton. Wheat looked as thoogh it would
yield 20 TO 40 bushels per acre. Corn is tas-
selling out in all directions, and prom
Using an abundant yield. From Salado
TO Bolton the country IS not so
good for farming, but lies beautifully and is
fine for grazing. Bolton is live, rock built
town of some thirty-fve hundred inhabit-
ants, and rapidly improving. Such couu-
try as surrounds Bolton will always make a
good business town. 1t is in style and ar
chItecture northern in its make up. From
Austin TO Bolton is fifty miles; from Bolton.
to this place is forty miles.
After passing Bolton and crossing the
Leon river we camped. Next morning we
started out hardly expecting to see such a
country as we had passed, but we were soon
astonished by entering the broad, expansive
prairie. which was dotted here and there
with the tenements of the thrifty farmer.
The golden wheat fields spread out
as far as the eye could see; the
corn fields black with waving blades.
the oats fields now ready for the sickle, and
wiz yield from so 10 100 bushels Per acre.

A SOLDIERS HOME.
The Way the RAIDS Manage Things.

The Cincinnati Gazette has dispatch froE
Bloomington, illinois, which tells sad
story OF the Soldiers Orphans home at
Bloomington, Illinois. 1t says. The new
board of t-ustees appointed by the state for
the management Of the Soldiers Orphans
home of Normal are busily engaged in maxi
ing an examination into the true
condition of affairs which have
existed at the home for several
years past. The board has found out the
fact that the gtate has for long time been
swindled by those DESTROYS to keep the in
stitution in existence, and that very large
proportion of the youth who are inmates
are not orphans OF Illinois soldiers who lost
their lives during the rebellion. Untold
extravaganza IL met with on ali
hands, not only in the manage
ment and treatment OF the children, but in
the style and manner which has entered INTO
the living of the Official of the home The
institution has been a sad disgrace to the
state, and when the true condition of affairs
Is fully made known the people throughout
the state will be more indignant than they
are to-day.
Maggie f. Wallace, who claims that she
was led astray while an inmate, will publish
a letter in which she will make some serious
complaints against those who have had the
care OF the institution since its early organi-
zation.

A Submerged City.

A strange discovery is reported
from the Lake Of Genevs. A tour
ist having lost his trunk, two divers
were employed to search for it.
While they were below water they
found whs: they supposed to be vii
lage, since covered by the lake. Their
statements led to al investigation Of
the spot by the municipal authorities,
who took measures 20 ascertain the
truth Of the extraordinary account of
the divers. On covering the placid
surface with oil, these latter were
able to distinguish the plan OF the
town, streets, squares, and detached
houses, making the bed Of the lake.
The ruddy hue which characterized
them led the observers to suppose
that the buildin gs had been covered
with the famous vermillion cemeu!
which was used by the Cells Cimbri,
aDd the early Gauls.
There are abou; 200 houses ar.
ranged over an oblong surface. near
the middle of which is . more open
space. supposed to have been used for
public sssemblages. At the eastern
extremity lies large square tower,
which was taken for . rock A
superficial investigation seems 70 in
dicate that the construction of these
buildings dates from some centuries
before our era. The Council of Vaud
has decided TO have the site Of the
dwellings inclosed BY jetty stretch,
ing from the land, and TO drain Of
the water, 30 as to bring 70 light
what promises TO be one of the mos'
interesting archaeological discoveries
of our dsy.-Londo Times.

OatOf Doors

We can describe the pleasure and
delight. tie peace of mind, soft trsu-
guilty which we feel in the bslmy
air, and among the green bills sud
rich woods of an inland village! Who
can tell how scenes Of peace snd
quietude sink into the minds Of pain
worn dwellers in Close and noisy
places, and carry their own freshness
deep in their jaded hearts! Men
who have lived in crowded pent-up
streets, through whole lives of toll
and ne-er wished for change; men
to whom custom has been second
nature, and who have come almost
TO love each brick and stone that
formed the narrow boundaries OF
their daily wslks-even they, with
the hand of death upon them, have
been known to -rsrn at last for one
short glimpse OF t1se's face; and,
carried far from the scenes of their
pains and pleasures, have seemed to
pass at once into new state of be-
ing, and, crawling forth from day to
day, TO some green, sunny spot, have
had such memories wskened up
within them by the mere sight OF
sky, ana hill, and plain. and glisten-
ing water, that foretaste of heaven
itself has soothed their quick decline,
and they have sunk into their tombs
as peacefully as the sun shose setting,
they watched from their lonely cham
Der window but few hours before
faded from their dim and feeble sight.
| The memories which pesceful country
scenes call up are not Of the world,
or of its thoughts or hopes; theiI
gentle influence may teach Us to
weave fresh garlsnds for the graves
of those we loved, may purify our
thoughts, and bear down before IL
