EXAMINATION AND CONCERTS AT
THE INsTITUTE.-We may appear to
have been remiss in our journalistic
capacity in not having noticed the
above in our last issue, or attended the
like performance of the present week.
As to the examination, the late school
has been conducted in SO retiring a
manner, has fought so shy Of newspa-
per notices or printers ink, that the
mass of the community have scarcely
known or cared whether school kept
there or not, and we but state the can
did truth when we say that We did
not know that any examination was in
progress last week, and were in like
blissful ignorance as to the first con-
cert-that of our highly esteemed and
accomplished friend. Miss Gotten. 10
other communities In which We have
lived, notices Of such matters, as a
thing of course, are furnished before
hand to the local paper or papers; We
should have been pleased to have CIV
en- such notice without charge; so we
are willing to leave it to the public
whether We or the parties mainly in
terested are entitled to an apology in
the first instance. We are always de.
sirous of giving the local news, but
have not so learned the business Of
publishing a newspaper a. to imagine
that it is any part Of publishers
business to spend his time in hunting
up materials for notices, which the
parties interested could give him with
out trouble, and neglect to do so.
We submit that they have no just
ground for complaint under such cir
oumstances if no notice is given in the
paper.
We freely admit that we ought to
have been, or had reporter both at
Miss Cotten's and Mrs. DeLony's con-
certs, but deny that We are mainly to
blame that such was not the case. We
are happy to say now, however, that,
as we are informed, both entertain.
ments were greeted by crowded houses,
and passed off in a manner creditable
alike to the pupils and the excellent
teachers.
Apropos of the close Of the school
at the Institute, we learn that all diff.
ferences as to the arrangement between
the new faculty and the Free School
trustees having been harmonized. it
will be consummated in the fall. We
trust the new management will not.
for their own good, as well as ours
continue the system Of hiding their
light under . bushel.

Five years .iuce, the 10Th inst, We
reached San Marcos. It occurs to us
that brief retrospect of the changes
which have since occurred might prove
interesting. We shall begin with
Austin, moro especially as We have
failed sooner to make the promised
notes from our late visit. The changes
for the better in that city since We first
saw it have been great and signal. The
Improvement in the streets. side walks
and crossings, is very marked. Then
the new public buildings and private
residences have been numerous. Prom
ineut among the former are the new
Court House, and Jail, the first named
a very imposing and beautiful struc-
ture, built Of Texas limestone OF fine
quality. The water-works and the toll
bridge across the Colorado are among
the other leading improvements per-
tanning to the State Capital.
Coming in the direction of San Mar
COS, great changes are conspicuous all
the way, but especially for several
miles this side Of Austin. The great.
or cheapness of lumber and labor has
wrought a wonderful change. New
and elegant country houses, and large
new Enclosures brought into cultiva.
ton, are in marked contrast with our
recollectious of the route five years
since.
Here at San Marcos the changes have
been less marked, yet careful retro.
spection Of the past five years will
show quite a considerable degree Of
progress. But wishing to show this up
SOMEWHAT detail, and in order to find
space for more pressing local topics. We
find it expedieut to defer this branch
Of our subject until our next issue.

formed US that the suit involving the
