BUcxNER, Fayette Co., Texas,
February Ia, 1878.
Mr. -Editor-H you think
this worthy of a place in the
OBSERVER, please be SO kind as
10 publish it. / will first state
that il is amazing to me, how
renters can afford to pay such
high rents Tor lands there when
better lands can be bought in
Texas for less than they pay for
rents there, /. e the same num-
Der Of acres. Its not the case
however, in Fayette county.
Land is high here. 1t will be
observed that Fayette county is
in the 800 of north latitude (the
same as New Orleans). Con-
sequcntly tits about two hum
dred and fifty miles further
south than Fayetteville. The
climate is mild. There has been
no snow and but very littleeice
here this winter. The first place
/ stopped at in the 'lone star
State" was Sherman, ] liked
there fine, with the exception of
the mud. Sherman hotels are
always crowded with new COM
ers. The hustle and stir of the
city never fail TO fayorably inn
press the stranger. The north
ern portion of Texas is noted
for its great depth of soil, va
rying from three to thirty feet.
Corn, wheat, barley, oats and
cotton are neutrality-suspicious..
Corn does not grow so we'll i'll
Grayson and adjoining counties
as in other portions of the State.
Wheat does finely here, often
yielding from fifty to sixty
bushels to the acre. The cot
ton in these counties is to said
be not excellcd by any in the
world. Various kinds of grapes
grow here to great perfection
No country in the United States
excels Texas in the quantity and
quality of its melons, Otter
weighing seventy-fye pounds
and even to the enormous
weight of one hundred.
Deer, wild turkeys, cata.
mounts, buffalo and every va
riety of reptiles abound here
Near Houston and various Other
places in the State are to be seer
vast herds Of cattle feeding
all the year on the prairies. Al
| have before said land is higf

rle are almost as thickly settled
here as they are in Lincoln
county. Wheat does not do 81

Of the State. Schuleanburg ant

EG There is good reason tt
believe that the President will moi
veto the SilverBill. Senator Math-
ews rendered him great service
in offering his silver resolutions
and pres ing them to vote in the
shape OF concurrent resolutions
not joint The President, with
out mourning any responsibility,
is advised o. the temper OF the
Senate. Notice is fled on him,
before he needs to take action,
that two.thirds of the Senate, to
which body alone could he hope
for support against the Silver
Bill, are in favor of that bill. The
skillful course of Senator Math-
thews was the adroit management
of a friend of the President as
well as of a friend of the Silver
Bill.

E Our Washington dis
patch expresses the opinion that
ore Of the effects Of the Returr-
ing Board trials will be to SO EN-.
bitter the Republicans as to de-
feat The Texas Pacific subsidy, the
levee scheme, and several other
nice little understandings that
have been going along smoothly.
Should this prove true, the Louis

some consideration after all. AS
Louisiana is more interested in
these schemes than any other
State, their defeat will not add
much to the popularity of the
Returning Board tricls at home.

What il Costs TO Take a
Paper.

Can anyone, after reading
the following, plead that he is
too poor 10 take a paper, that
he cannot afford it: 1t costs
less than half a cent a day to
take a weekly paper; less than
a diligent hen would earn in a
year at the market price Of
eggs; less than a cigar a fort
night, and a very cheap one at
that; less than the barber would
charge by the yearto keep ones
hair trimmed; less than good
sized Christmas turkey; less
than an energetic kitchen girl
will waste in week. A pen
ny n day can be saved in many
Il better way than stopping your
paper.

Supreme Judgeship.

A0 ~ OL20 0SAk3
The Manchester Guardian
copies our article and comments
dc follows:
The above article taken from
the Fayetteville Observer ex-
presses thescntiments of large
majority Of the people of this
locality. Judge Cooper S repu-
tation as Judge is national, he
is considered the Chancellor
Kent among the Judges of the
present. time, and it VIII not pc
controyertcd that the BublIs ins
terest demands his services On
the Supreme bench. j.
AS to our count yman JllClge
IIickerson, 1--WE can Truly say that
she people OF the State would be
delighted with the opportunity
20 confer the honor Of q seat on
The Supreme bench for the mid
die division of the State, and we
know Of no one who would more
worthily bear the honor, and at
the same time do the State more
service. His ability is conceded
by all who know him, aud he
possesses that high order OF in
tegrity and probity of charac-
ter which We all so much admire
an a Judicial officer.
Judge Hickerson also has {
reputation for industry, energy,
sobriety and fidelity to duty
that is guarantee that the pub
lie business would be dispatch.
cd, and we can, we think, an
swero@that the crowded condi'
ton Of our Supreme Court dock
cts demand the service Of sucl
aJudge.
We have no intimation from
Judge II. as to how he may fee
on this subject, but if he vii
defer to the wishes OF the people
he will serve them for the mex
8 years as q Judge of the SUI
preme Court.
Judge Hickcrson has already
rendered the people of this Cir
cult a service which they can
not forget and for which they
will always feel grateful. Tn
der his administration as Judge
lie bSught law and order OH
of chaos, and security 20 person
and property was established
in the place of lawlessncss an(
disorder. He inspired that higl
respect fer law and justice il
this circuit, that was so much
needed for the repose of society
at q time when it was though
to be impossible.
We know that Judge Kicker
son is no aspirant for Office, AM
that he does not need Office t.
support himself or family. Blu
we,know also that he couldren
der to the State invaluable ser
vice in a judicial station.

The Railroad.

Mr. RUbt. Williams, of Bel
fast, we are informed, has sub
seribed the sum OF two thousand
dollars to be used in extending
the railroad to Petersburg. Thi,
is a magnificent subscription. Mr.
Williams isone OF our very best anc
most reliable citizens, always NJ
and widr.awake TO the public i'm
provements Of cur country; his eX'
ample is worthy CT imitation BY
ell, and il is hoped that other
wiILgo and DO likewise.
This great work can and will
be completed to Petersburg during
The present year if our people will
be up and doing. Lincoln county
has subscribed more than $4,000
to be used in building the road to
Petersburg. This makes success
certain flour people will onlycon-
tribute a reasonable portion of
their means to the .woik. Let nc
one cay it cannot be done. There
is always a way when there is a
will. When the road is built tt
Petersburg the people of the
whole county will get the bsneGt oI
the ROAD in freight. travel and
home markets, and, 10 addition &c
.this, the county will save it,
