Clover and Timothy In Texas.

Mr.. S. H. Bard, of Biardsville,
Lamar county, Texas, gives the
following hints on the cultivation
of clover and timothy. in Cole
mans Rnral Void.
a have about FIVE acres in
clover and timothy, which looks
promising. As for the kind of
soil best adapted to the produc-
ton of clover and timothy, l
think the black prairie land the
best, but they do we'll on ham,
mock or gray land. The seed
should be sown in the fall rs
soon as sufficient rain has fallen
to prevent the young plants
from perishing. The land
should be well prepared by
blowing andharrowing, the same
as for wheat or oats. l sowed
one-quarter of a bnshel to the
acre. but a little more, in my
opinion, would be better, as it
would secure a better stand and
thereby choke out the weeds
sooner.
| don't think stock should be
allowed to run on the field until
the first crop has been cut,
Don think that the first crop
should be allowed to remain on
the land, but, as the grass will
make two crops in this climate
l think 4 very good plan is
(having sown in the fall) to cut
the first crop and let the lastre-
main on the ground to protect
the young plants through the
winter. After the first year,
however, it should be cut twice
ayear.

Bass and a portion fhis men is
given to Sherifs Johnson and
Everheart who nlatured and
urged the plan of arresting Muir
ply, releasing him on bail and
spreading the report that he
had jumped his bond. Murphy
went TO Bass camp ostensibly
for protection, and, as opportu-
nifty offered, gave information
to Johnson, Everheart and Peak.
The plan to rob the Round
Rock bank having been agreed
upon, information was dispatch

Hon. Joseph D. Sayers.

It was generally conceded
that the position of lieutenant
governor on the Democratic
ticket would be conceded to
Hon. J. D. Sayers, let the result
be what it might in the gubern-
atorial contest, and the sequel
proves that in one instance at
least public expectation was
correct, the nomination having
been made by reclamation at
the same time as that of Judge
Roberts.
Major Sayers is comparative
i. a young man, but has bril-
liant record as a soldier, lawyer
and politician, though much of
his time is devoted to farming
and care of fine stock, of which.
in connection with his partner.
he has some of the best in the
state on their place near Bastrop.
Major Savers has served in the
legislature, has been for the last
two years chairman of the State
Democratic Executive COM
mlttce. and enjoys the conf
dencc OF all who know him. He
is known as a gentleman of cul-
ture, of refinement and of convic
tons, who believes that the same
principles of morality aud
honor should prevail i'll public
as in private lifc, and it's safe
TO anticipate that he will digni-
fly and adorn the office of lieut.

MANY suggestions have been
made with the object of hasten
ing and promoting termination.
According to some experiments,
this object is accomplished by
the application of a moderately
strong solution ofpotash or soda
to the seeds. Weak solution of
chlorine gas in water has also
been recommended. Its alleg-
ed that camphor has 4 wonder
full influence in favoring the ger
mination of seeds, and that, I'M
like turpentine, which has been
employed for the same purpose,
it is never, even when used in
excess, huftful.

Tho Agony Over.
Private DISPATCHES recei

Private dispatches received
yesterday afternoon announce
the nomination b.; reclamation
of Judge o. NJ. Roberts, of
Smith county, for governor and
Major Joseph D. Sayers, Of
Bastrop county, for lieutenant
governor. Judge Roberts is
the chief justice of the Supreme
court. He is man of unblem-
ished reputation, and is not a
politician in the ordinary &C
ceptance Of the term. There
was a general expression of
disappointment at the nominal
Ition. Mr.. Roberts is very old
about seventy years-too old,
some think, for the proper dis
charge of the arduous duties of
the ofice of governor. Major
Joseph D. Savers is SO well
known as to need no mention.
The result has been brought
about by the adherents of
Throckmorton, who seem to
have gone to the convention
for the special purpose of de-
feating Hubbard. They have
succeeded most admirably. 1t
is certain that Hubbard was
the choice of a majority of the
people; this was made apparent
after the first few ballots. The
result of the two-thirds rule is
the defeat of all candidates
who are prominently named in
connection with the Office and
the nomination of a man who
has never been mentioned, and
perhaps, was hardly thought Of
in connection with it. The choice
of the people is unquesotinably
defeated.
The convention being fresh
from the people we have no
fault to find with the result; it is
nothing more than we anticipa-
ted and predicted in these col
umns few days ago. We
gracefully accept the nominees
of the convention, and shall, to
the extent of our ability. work
for the success of the ticket.

r o. NJ. Roberts.

As was anticipated in the col
ums Of the Nezae, gentleman
whose name had only been men
toned in 4 very quiet way, and
then only in case of a dead
lock, was placed before the con-
vention for governor yesterday
afternoon and nominated by &C
clarnation. Judge O. NJ. Rob
erts, of Tyler, having for the
better part of half century been
conspicuous in Texas as 4 law
yer, a judge, soldier, and a
most estimable gentleman,
needs no introduction to the
constituency to whose suffrages
his name is submitted in the
present gubernatorial campaign.
Judge Roberts came to Tex
as more than thirty years ago;
commenced the practice of his
profession. and was soon after
made district attorney. In a
short time he was made Judge
of the fifth district. which posi-
ton he held until the death of
the lamented Lipscoub, when
he was elevated to the vacancy
on the Supreme bench. On the
secession of Texas from the un-
ion Judge Roberts resigned
from the Supreme court, and
took command, as colonel ofthe
sixteenth Texas regiment. in
which capacity he displayed all
the qualities of a soldier and
endeared himself to his men,
not only by CALAMITY leading
them wherever duty called, but
by extending over them the
kindly care OF a farther for his
children. Before the close of
the war he was again placed on
the Supreme bench, from which
he was removed on the COM
menccment of reconstruction
measures in Texas. In 1866
he was elected United States
senator; but was not permitted
to take his seat. After this he
resumed the practice of his pro-
fcssion, in which he continued
till the Inauguration Of Gov. Coke
in 1874, when he was appointed
chief justice of the Supreme
court, and to the same position
under the new constitution he
was nominated By the Demo-
cratic convention that met in
Galveston, January, 1876, and
elected without opposition. He
still holds the office of chiefjus-
tice of the Supreme court to
the satisfaction OF the people OF
Texas. Besides native capac-
ity, large information and ma
ture experience, united with the
most sterling integrity, Judge
Roberts is believed to possess
in no ordinary degree tastes and
aptitudes for executive functions.
These qualities, animated with
the patriotism and public spirit
of a through Texan. whose
heart is as big as the whole state
and pulsates equally for all sec
tons, hold out a well-founded
assurance that he will make not
only a conscientious and faithful,
but an eininently efficient and
generally satisfactory governor.
