We have studied closely the various questions
relating 10 fruit cnlture in western Texas during
the twenty seven years Of experience aud obser-
yation, upon our own ground. We have thus en-
abled ourselves to present TO the public list OF
fruits better adapted to our climate than can be
offered by any other establishment.
Our pears cannot be excelled anywhere. Any
one who has good clay sub-soil aud good drain
are need not hunt better pear country than this.
Our plums and grapes are OF the only classes
that have been fund successful here.
Our sccIimated list Of pesches is grated, with a
single exception, from new varieties originated
on seed in Western Texn. We do not claim
that our peaches are better than every other. but
We do claim that our trees are proved as hardy
and productive as any scrub seeding, while the
qualities are not inferior TO the old ists.
We propose to introduce our fruits into the san

lature, all bound in one volume. II
is q book of convenient size, being less
than Hartley''s or Paschal's Digest.
If adopted the book should be prefaoed
with table of titles and chapters. and
should also contain the constitution Of.
the general and state governments.
Special provision ought to be made for
reprinting in larger type, say small

A revision OF the civil statutes was
the most needed, and seems to have
received the most attention. We,
shall not attempt, at this time, re-.

Evidently there are very few funda.
meutal or radical changes in the, pre-
sent law, and such as are made are
noted in the report and appear to be
meritorious and commendable. Such
changes and all visionary experiments
appear also to have been carefully
avoided, probablyto insure the adop.

that fits adoption fails or is postponed

THE REVISED STATUTES.
Views Of nm Experienced and
Eminent Texas Lawyer.
[Galveston News.

Galveston News.
It is q remarkable fact that there
has never yet been revision Of the
civil laws of Texas. The statutory
laws as they exist unrepcaled in the
pamphlet acts fro m 1886 to tha pre-.
sent time, are the only standard.
There is scarcely city or county in
the state where full set of these acts
can be found. They can not be obtain.
at the office of the secretary Of state
and, outside of the public Offices at
Austin, can only be seen in the private
library of some old attornery, who was
careful enough to haye had them
bound and preserved Hartley's Di
gest, Oldham Il Whites Digest, and
Paschal's Digest, were simply republi-
cations by individuals Of the statutory
laws, methodiaally arranged. and be.
lieved to betin force at the time. AL
though they are referred to by our
supreme court for convenience, yet, not
having been adopted as law by the
law. making power. they are authority
only in so far as they prove to be cor.
rect copies, upon comparison with the
original acts.
Moreover Oldham g. Whites Di-
gest being very old and quite imperfect
in omitting tia-captions OF the sever
al acts and Paschal's Digest being de.
fective in arrangement and very badly
indexed, and also often containing er-
rors in the text, it is an undeniable
fact that there are very few lawyers who
can with any certainty determine what
are:the statutory laws of Texas relative
to any given subject. An authoritive
revision of the laws in force has
therefore become great necessity.
The people are held amenable to the
laws, which they are presumed to
know. and authentic copies of which,
in book form. they can not obtain.
They are demanding, very justly, a
legalized REVISION of the laws; and
that they be published IN cheap and
convenient form and placed within
their reach.
The constitution of 1875 very wisely
required that the ffrstlegislature there
after should provide for revising and
digesting all tn, laws, the work to be
submitted to the succeeding legislature
for adoption. The proper act was pass
ed and the necessary appropriation
made. Five commissioners, believed
to be well qualified in the law, were
commissioned by Gov. Coke to do The
work. As the result Of their labors
fer two years the governor submitted
to the legislature now in session, at its
first meeting, five hundred printed
copies Of the revised penal code and
code of criminal procedure and by the
second week of the session the like
number of printed corlcs Of the revis-
ed civil statutes, as well. as the COM
missioner report. One month Of the

A Beautiful scene-Rockport,
Texas.
Tuesday. the eleventh day Of Feb.
ruary. 1879, was one Of pristine eden
type, one Of those calm. bright days
nature ocoasic nally sends upon our
cloudy world after a long night Of
winter gloom, seemingly to remind us
of the lovely effulgence which adorned
mans lost paradise. Amid the golden
glories of such day existence is o
beatitude. Surely eden in all its in
tant loveliness could not have excell-
ed the bright, balmy sweetness Of this
day, save in its floral bloomings, and
in the untainted innocence of the eye
which looked upon it. Our eye has
been entranced all the day long by the
exquisite beauty and poetic delicacy Of
the indescribable scenery of Rpckport.
l almost feel a surprise that all young
people of Rockport do not iuhale po-
etic genius on day like this! 'Tis
true the old oceans domain is the en-
blem of power and often the home of
storms, but. on a day like this no hu.
