JUDGE C. w. PASCnAL DE I'D.

Many persons in Texas will be panied
to hear Of the death OF Judge Paschal,
which took place in Washington City
Saturday. he spent many years of his
life in this city, and his history is
probably more intimately connected
with Texas jurisprudence than
any other man that has lived.
His yolumipous works on Texas
law speak for him, and will long re-
main q monument to his learning.
Judge Paschal took up his residence
in Washington City after the COM
mencement of the war, and entered
into a practice before the United States
Supreme Court, where he labored
until the day of his death. He leaves
children and relatives, now in Texas.

WESTERN Texas had Its Governor in
the person of E. J. DAVIS; Middle
Texas had its Coke; Eastern Texas had
its Hubbard; and now Northern Texas
wants its Throckmorton, and it will be
very apt to realize the wish, for the
honor this time properly belongs to
this stronghold of Democracy.

Tho slaughier OF Property.

The Parkersburg &atiae! 10 common
ting on the sale Of the Hardman furnace
property at Gladesville, Preston county,
for $1,000, makes the following observa'
ton:
In 1870 Mr.. Hardmsn completed his
works, and his property there then, con-
sisted Of the Glsdesyille Furnace, S5O acres
Of land on which were two good farms,
and an inexhaustible quantity OF Iron ore
and Coal. There was also about forty
tenement houses, one large dwelling,
store rooms, barns, etc, and . railroad
about six miles 10 length. This whole
property, with q good title, was sold on
March 18th to Eugene List, Of Wheeling,
for the insignificant sum Of ionr thou
sand dollars.
The property Is worth, at q low esti-
mate, one hundred thousand dollars
This instance Ia only n Ia hundreds
that can be seen every day Of the ruin e
which the country Is rapidly coming. II
John Sherman Ia permitted TO maintain
the suicidal policy thst he Is o work.
ing ut, he will, by the time his term o.
office expires, have completely ruined
this country.
The facts about Mr.. Hardman's prop
erty are not properly set forth in the
above comments Of the Statin4. He built
his furnace and his houses in very high
prieed times. They we're built with Dor.
rowei money, and everything cost
twice and sometimes thrice what 1t
would cost now. The vein OF ore
worked was not 4 rich one-wa there
fore expensive to work-and the product
Of the furnace was not an iron that could
be sold in large quantities in this or any
other convenient market, except at a sac
rifce. Nothing but the extraordinary
price Of iron in 1872 '73 gave Hardman's
furnace even a temporary success. But
for the great rise Of those years it would
never have acquired Its fictitious value.
Il had no advantages Of location. The
Baltimore & Ohio road was is only out
let to market. It's iron vas cold short,
1t made money only on the rise and COM
menced losing early in the fall Of prices.
Now what had John Sherman to do
with the failure Of such q concern ?
Suppose Mr.. Hsrdman had spent twice
as much money as he did at Gladesville,
by building a big hotel, a fine church, an
academy, and two or three manufacturing
concerns. His failure would, Of course,
have been much bigger and more
disastrous than it was, and Sherman
would have been duly responsible for the
whole Of It. sherman's responsibility Is
capable Of indefinite enlargement. The
Secretary can be made, in the hands Of a
rank G~reenbacker, as big a goat as The
one that was turned loose in the wilder.
ness with everybodys sins on his head.

C~xcrssA7r, April 20, 1s7s.-Messrs
Matthew Addy & Co, dealers in pig iror
and iron ores, report the following as The
condition Of the market: For several
weeks u market for iron has been more
than usually active. The sales have beer
large, yet in no Gaze upon speculative ac'
count. Our manufacturers as q whole
are we'll supplied with orders, and With
but few exceptions are running full time,
10 view Of the fact that the consumption
Of iron throughout the country has for
some time been in advance Of the produc'
ticn, It msy fairly be inferred that q wise,
and, as far as possible, permanent settle
ment Of the questions Of finance and
tariff, will give Us n substantial basis for
q growing improvement 10 the future.

western Emigration.

Western advices continue to show a
very encouraging tone. AChicago letter
says that the railroad Offices in Kansas,
Nebraska and Minnesota continue to be
crowded with people seeking homes, and
statistics show that the sales Of land to
actual settlers have never been SO large
rs during the present spring. This
healthy growth in the far West has made
4 great demand for seed wheat and lum-
Der, and, while the stock Of the former
has become greatly reduced, we also note
40 unusual demand for the latter, which
Is being called for by present and pros
pective wants. The grasshopper years
have placed those States In such condit.
ion, until last season,th comparatively
speaking, nothing has been spent for in
ternal Improvements.
