WACO, TEXAS March }, 1873.
After long silence, and having just emerged
from one of the most disagrecable winters a
Texan ever witnessed, | will endeavor to talk
about current topics, provided my memory is
not too much clogged with rccollections of
black mud.
Our little central city was again visited by
the fire tend IA few days since The First Ma
tional Bank and one or two dry goods houses
were burned. The wind was blowing very
strong, which at one time threatened the
whole city, but the firemen arrested it in time
to save the Masonic Temple. Cause OF fire
unknown, and most Of the losses covered by
insurance The vault Of the bank withstood
the heat perfectly preserving its contents, be
ing its second test by fire.
A south bound train from Dallas a short
time since was halted and boarded by band
of fourteen men, who relieved the express car
of several hundred dollars, when they retreat
ed for parts unknown. Stage robberes have
been of common occurrence in Texas, but
this is the first train robbery on record here.
Some of the Kansas and Missouri sharpers
must be drifting southwark, or our Texas
thieves are getting more expert.
Corn planting is under full Roadway, and
with ten days fair weather the bulk of the
crop will be planted Winter wheat looks

acreage in this section is small, it will be par
TALLY made up by the heavy spring wheat
crops that have been sown. Stall fed cattle
are now being placed on the market at remu.

to Texan only few years back; but the dis
appearing grass has given place to enormous
grain crops, that have to be utilized in this
way. LITTLE TEXAN.
