A TASTE for reading grows with
what it feeds on" This has been made
clearer than ever to our MUD by the
unusually large number Of periodi-
Gals which we have ordered for some
months past. Hardly a day but we
have sent out on order, frequently three
or four, for newspapers and periodicals,
many Of which were induced by our
club rates with the FREE PRESS. In
most cases we paid for money orders
and postage into the bargain. 1t gives
us great and peculiar pleasure to feel
that we have thus contributed to the
happiness of a wide circle, who will
not lack the pleasant and instructive
pastime of choice reading.

or. 1 have known Maj, Sayers since
he finished his examination with high
honors at the Bastrop Academy. He
was stauuch Union man, but when
the fatal war broke out, he, true to his
Southern home, was Of tho first to vol
uuteer his services in defense OF his
home and friends.
He returned after the war, poor and
on crutches, aud studied law, and by
his perseyering energy and the con-
fidenco of his clients (after being ad'
mitted as q practicing lawyer he has
now accumulated property.
Maj. Sayers is self.made man. l
have lived more than twelve years near
him. l have observed his efforts; his
kindness and integrity in private as
we'll as public lite; the honors confer
red on him by the Free Masons; Il am
no Mason his labors and efforts while
a State Senator in the year 1872, when
he represented Bastrop and Fayette

Maj. Sayers has no prejudice against
foreign born citizens. and has often be-
friended them.
Of our proposed Governor, Throck-
morton, l can only say he bears good
reputation for honesty, ability and
craftsmanship. l am not acquainted
