Of the Herald,
BRKCKRSRlpdH, February 10, 1880.
The heavy snow two weeks since, has
placed fine SO son in the ground. Wheat
looks we'll, while gardening ana farm work
Is being pushed forward with favorable
for good crop'--it Is
u noteworthy fact that the immi-
grafton to this country for the year past was
not one-thrd rs great Ms that of three years
ago. The tide Of prosperity, the b1om in
values, and increase in the volume of the
circulating medium in the older sections is
scarcel, felt out here. Whether this de-
crease of immigration be due, rs your ST,
Louis correspondent suggests, to Democratic
government, or simply to our stupid State
policy on immigration, or to financial causes,
are questions well worthy Of careful study.
rhe advance of the Texas ~ Pacific road
will help this section wonderfully, but
the sub feet of immigration may well
be made an issue in the election
of this year.-The question Of our District
iudgeship is one of great interest to our peo-
pie Just now Judge Flemng's resignation
will take effect the LIST of April. Some ofthe
papers have mentioned the name Of Senator
Davenport, ms likely to be appointed to fill
the vacancy, but he would not accept the
position, if rendered him. If Governor Rob
erts regards the expression of the bar of this
district, his choice will fall upon Colonel T.
l.. hutchinson, but whether he will, is yet in
the "womb of Q future. Mo steps have
been taken yet to appoint delegates from our
county to tho convention at Galveston, on
the 22d of April, nor is it likely
that any county convention will
be called for this purpose. Tilden or Bayard
would be the last choice Of our people, but
with the nomination of Hendricks, Hancock
or Seymour they would be content. The
Northwest Texan, published here, in its issue
of February It'll, contains two'column ar
ticle advocating and defending our present
Grand jury system. The action of our last
Grand jury in finding only eight bills of in
dictment out of treble that number of charges
preferred. tends to show that, under proper
instructions from the District judges, the liza
biIity of the system to currupt peryersion
might be almost entirely corrected. We loci
to the HERALD for further light on the sub
iect.

TERELL, February Il, 1880,
The members of the Baptist church gave
their minister surprise party last night. 1t
turned out TO be more Of donation party
than II surprise. 1t was n very pleasant affair
and the Rev. j. B. Daniel no doubt feels
much richer to-day than yesterday, no being
the recipient of several nice presents-The
ladies of the Mite society Of the 0. ?. church
are determined to have the Presbyterian
church present comfortable appearance.
They have had considerable work done on
the church, and are now chang
ing the three aises into two.--
Lots of cotton in town to-day and prices
high.--Corn is much cheaper than it has
been worth 60 cents shelled 65 to ~ in
the ear.---Seed oats are in demand Mt very
high figures and but few offered for sale on
the streets --"Sel out, buy lot and build
again." appears to be the motto OF
some of our enterprising citizens.--
We are glad to see DR.. johnson, late Of Nash
vile, Tennessee, gaining quite trade here
in the dental profession. He undoubtedly is
fine dentist II. L. Standfeld, Of Rock
wall, is in the city. He informs US that
Rockwell is the only town in this part Of the
State that doesn't expect railroad, hence
that city is out Of debt and happy.---Many
of the friends of Mr.. James N. Rushing are
talking of running him for the State Senate.
-Messrs. Frenkel and Wsldron have
returned from Galveston.-Dr. Will
liam Chdress and Captain j. X. Bumpass,
have returned from Ssdalis, Missouri, where
they have been on business. Arrivals yes

JEFFERSON.

Reported Daily.l
JEFFERSON, February II, 1850.
This is the second week of the Federal
court, thsbeng the second session at this point.
It is comparatively new institution in this
section and is viewed with the usual awe and
generation. Judge Morrill, presides with his
usual grace and dignity. He has resided in
Northeast Texas over quarter of q century,
and all old Texans know him and admire his
talent and consistency, if they do not agree
with him politically. The most bitter par
tisans have never accused him of partiallty in
his rulings, and il is remarked. that he Is as
suave and courteous in his official capacity
as if he was dependent on 'vox populi'
for the position which he now holds for life.
The Judge is in excellent health and
has many friends and some relatives in this
city. Colonel Phillips, the United States
Marshal, is not here, but is ably and well rep
resented by his deputies, Captains =, II. Cal
loway, Singleton and Ingraham. The most
important cases that have as yet come TO
trial are two suits against the Texas " Pa
cifc railroad The first was that of V. S.
Prewitt and wife. of Cass county, who sued
the road for 100000 damages for the death
of their little son, aged six years, who was
standing on the platform of the station, when
freight train pissed striking a plank which
iutted out too far, and caused the little boy to
fall under the car-wheels, where he was
crushed to death. The jury in this
case was composed of some of cur
best citizens, and brought in verdict of
$3.50 for the plaintiff. The other case was
that of Maggie Moss, colored, who sued the
road for many thousands of dollars on ac-
count of bodily injuries received at the hands
of said defendants. 1t appears that Maggie
had her elbow out of the car window, and
received severe injury from loaded car
which was standing nearer the track than the
law allows. The jury brought in compro-
mise verdict, and healed the wound with
SlS2 so damages. Several attorneys from
abroad are in attendance on the court. The
Jefferson and Marshall attorneys represent
nearly all the cases on the docket. The
criminal docket will be taken up tomorrow.

Mr.. Parnell, in America, has done
the Nationalists and Home-rulers
great ~disservice. Although Congress,
with a singular want of dignity and
forethought, has granted him its
"foor" for an " oration," which Mem
bers did not attend to hear, the Press
has been decidedly against him, and
the people, Irishmen included, have,
subscribed scarcely anything for bis
agitation. They have insisted on
combining subscriptions to the relief of
distress, and on sending them dire8t
the latter a device which, for sorts
unintelligible reason, has greatly irri.
tated MI. ParnelL. He has so com.
pletely lost his temper, that he has
not only declared that the local relief
funds + expended in the landlord
interest-an assertion which the Ca

borough, who is spending herself for
Irish benefit, which most American
papers refused to report, and which
has brought down on him, even from
journals in the West, a shower of in-
dignant remonstrance. The Daily
Neaos' correspondent, a very cool
observer, declares Mr.. ParnelTs mis-
sion an utter failure, and it's effect has
evidently been to deprive the Home
rule cause of any favour the Ameri-
cans were previously disposed to ex-
tend to it.
