Hon. A. H. Stephens regards the adop-
ton of the Burchard resolution and the re-
port of the Judiciary Committee ON the
Presidential title, as a personal vindication.
Referring to the p obdurate Democrats who
voted against the resolution, he says: Il
think they represent the ORIGINAL intention
OF this movement, which was to GUST Mr..
Hayes. know it was the intention of the
principal leading men to vote Mr.. Hayes out
and seat Mr.. Tilden. I talked with them
and know of il, and when | saw so many
men giving up and going with them bull
dozed into i'll became apprehensiye." The
voice Of the people. proclaimed through the
press, however, brought them TO their SEN
SEES, and their own condemnation is reached
by their own votes.

THE WHEAT CRoP.-The official infor-
nation at Washington city, represents that
the wheat crop for the present year is more
than heretofore abundant. The area is lar
ger than ever. but the yield is not in proper
ton. From the results Of the harvest thus
far, it is fair to state from reliable data that
the crop will be four hundred million bushels.
For the last three years the yield has been
one third larger than the three preceding
ynarS.

MEssRs. EDIToRs:-D Decoration day having pass
ed and fitting tributes been paid to the heroic
dead with flowers and eloquent words, but when
living been filled Must their devotion to their
country be shown on but one day IN the year? Is
there not during the whole year an opportunity
and the needy living re1icfs Of the heroes whose
graves have been strewed with flowers In memo
rial OF their deeds, which >wh lie 1t may not win
the worldly glory and praise of men, has its own
higher reward and speaks volumes Of patriotic
emotions? Let those who are able remember this
and not forget while honoring the dead to deal
generously with the living whose dependency
was alone created by the sacrifice of husband. a
father or a brother in defence of the lost cause.
This display OF charity can be done without noise
or show and VIII be more acceptable than
wreathes OF flowers to Him who has written,
BLESSED is he that considereth the poor: the
Lord will deliver him In time of trouble.

The South as Field for Manufactures.

In speech on the Texas Pacific Railway,
Senator Lamar lately dwelt at great length
on the natural advantages of the South for
successful manufacturing. Every condition
ofsoil, climate, and raw material for the
development OF a great industrial commn-
nifty are there. The South has already begun
her industries of the future, and the profits
that are realized from them are, in some in
stances, prodigious. But to develop these
Industries, she must have free access to the
markets of the world, and be able to attract
to herself the skill, and capital, and machi-
merry, and appliances of the North. In the
South land, food, raiment, and shelter are
cheap, and taxation is growing every year
less burdensome. In everything except
capital, skill, and experience, the manufac-
turers Of the South are on an equality with
those of England, and the saving in bailng,
waste, and transportation gives the South
great advantages. No where in the world
can cotton be manufactured so cheaply as
on the spot where it is grown, where water
power is SO abundant and unfailing; and
every factory set up there will help to de-
yelop the dversities of Southern agricul-
ture. The cotton crop last year amounted
to Zoo, 600 bales; yet the Southern States
have but small part of their cotton lands
under cultivation.
Not only is the South the t'advanta-
geous section for the manufacture of cotton
70 hr;co ro a G to ropouporotn invoc tp,ant- h,,t
wooden goods and iron can be manufactured
with greater profit than in any other section of
the country. We differ with Mr.. Lamar as to
the tariff, but this will be regulated by the
common sense of the country when the nam
ufacturing enterprises shall become general
in the South. In Virgins we have every
advantage for the successful operation of
wooden factories and iron furnaces, as the
raw material and other essential concomi-
tants are here in overlooking abundance.
Capital has been driven from the South by
reason of the bitter partizan spirit which
has been manifested in every election, and
the subcrdination of every material inter-
est to the plots of the political dema-
gogues who care for nothing but their own
selfish ends. The politicians have ridden
the people of the South to the very verge of
ruin, and the lavish gifts of nature have
served only as reproach because of the
abuse of them that the schemes of these agi-
tators might be carried out. Cotton and
wooden goods and iron can be manufactured |
cheaper in the South than any portion of the
United States, if not of the world, and it is
because Of the reckless disregard Of the in
terests Of the people by the politicians, that
mechanical industries have not dotted every
valley and hillside ir this section.

A BANKRUPT TREASURY The. Richm'd
Wig of the Nth fVnlshes the following
the State Treasury:
'sThe policy OF the 'iunders' has bank
rupted the treasury CT the State. There
will be over million OF coupons, after the
first of July, TO intercept the taxes and keep
the treasury empty. That is the situation
which will confront the Legislature when it
meets in December-an empty treasury and
an increasing deficit, and deplorable ineffi-
cheney pervading every department of the

politicians, who sustain the Infamous fund
ing bill, have brought them. Further COM

building was never so cheap in
Austin as at the present time. From
81 90 to 81 10 is the price pc,
perch for putting up stone walls fol
stores and residences, and brick and
wood work are equally as low. In
1858 wheat was harvested in this county
on the 18th of April. Farmers are an.
ticipating that wheat cutting will begin
about that early this season.
Travis County They had grand
celebration of tSt. Patrick's day in San
Antonio, but we regret to say it passed
unobserved in Austin. The property
OF Travis county was assessed for the past
year n 81 100000 fraction over
S6,00O,0O0 being for the city of Austin.
This shows an increase of nearly 81 600.
600 on former assessments. The
vegetable market of Austin, we venture
10 say, is unsurpassed in the south. Ii
is supplied in exhaustless quantities,
with celery, cabbage lettuce, peas, on
ions, parsnips, turnips, spinage and
other varieties of vegetables usually
grown in the south.
