PARIS, July 49, 1850.
The Texas cantstrice, Miss Ella Rives
assisted by some of our best home talent,
gave concert at the courthouse on Friday
evening. 1t was one of the rarest musical
treats that Paris has ever had. She SO
charmed her audience that she was encored
back upon the stage after almost every piece
she sang. The instrumental music on the
piano by Mr.. William Taylor Francis was
the finest we ever heard. Their
first appearance in our city guarantees
them full house should
thy again favor us with return.-Picnics
and bsrbecues are almost daily occurrences in
the county now. If the prosperity of our coun-
ty is to be measured by the number of pic.
MICS and barbecues being given, then we sure
ly are prosperous people. Our numerous
candidates have a fine time, and good op-
portunity to meet the "dear people" Our
county will have primary election on the
21st day of August.-Our old time friend,
DR.. Gibson and his excellent lady are happy.

Missing Property Found

About one year ago DR.. Ewell, ofthis city,
sold twenty-five horsepower engine and
two sets of mill stones, together with the 9TH
er machinery necessary to a grist mill, to a
man whose name he does not now remem0 Der.
The purchaser moved the property to Rit-
ter's lake, in Denton county, where he soon
began to drive a thriving business, yet some
parties of that section taking dislike to him,
began to harrass him, when he abandoned
his business, and returning to this city sold
the machinery back to DR.. Ewell, and since
that time nothing has been seen or heard of
him. When Dr.. Ewell went to take charge
of his property he found everything but the
large boiler missing, and although
diligent search was made, the missing ma.
chinery could not be found. Monday while
Mr.. Sampson was diving in the lake, some
twenty yards from the bank, he found The
Smut mill stones, etc, Mt the bottom. 1t
must have taken number Of men to have
moved such ponderous machinery, but the
strangest part of it is that the man who first
purchased it disappeared mysteriously. DR..
Ewell will get the machinery out as some
parts of 1t, especially the stones, are val
uable

Let everybody see to it that every available
place is secured for our visitors. 1t will be
disgraceful if accommodations are not to be
procured. 1t is difficult matter to eat and
sleep five thousand people, and much de-
ponds upon the sxertions of our boarding
houses. There should be prepared printed
list of all the boarding houses in town and
the number of persons they could entertain
and their rates. The delegates
and visitors will have money
to pay for accommodations, and they must
be provided for. Of course some will be en-
tertained by personal friends, but the larger
portion will have to depend on our boarding
houses. Let every cot, blanket and bed be
ready, for they will be badly needed. The
hotels, boarding houses and restaurants must
realize that the attendance at Mardi Gras will
not compare with the number of people who
will be on hand August 10th to see the state
convention through. People who never
took boarders before should, for the honor Of
their city, do so during the convention.
