and hlsrcmains we're ailcrward found. This
is the county ,eat Of Denton county, and
is situated on an eminencc commanding n
good view OF the surrounding country, but
which is obstructcd by the timber. A new
and substantial courthouse ofstone stands
on the highest emincnCe, in the center of
its square, around which an iron railing
is soon to be placed. Colonel McCoy, John

could relate some OF their personal exper-
fences or frolics that they bad here in early
days The citizens here are warm friend,
to Dallas, and especially to the Herald,
which hasa long list OF subscribers and
continually increasing. Denton has been
soroly afflicted with fires, the first being in
lSGO, and as many AS seven since the war
three in 1881. Its courthouse was burned
twice, it was thought TO destroy
the county records. In every fire a side or
more of is square would be leveled in
ashes a at me: and from each would arise
Phmnix like, better AID more extensive
buildings than ever; and now when the
late fire dstr ct is rebuilt, which will I've
very soon, Denton can boast of as good and
line business houses as most TOXINS. At
last 1t saw the necessity of purchasing a
lire extinguist er, and the other dav pur-
chased splendid Silby steam fire engine.
1t was my * cd fortune To see il tested -.
About dozen men and boys had gone up
through and out upon the dome of the
courthouse, and with waving hats and
shouts, BID defiance at the tire company to
dislodge them f they could. Soon an ex-
ira nmounl Of steam wGs pu' on, and the
water was made to shoot up, and soon the
party were enyelopcd in a cloud of rain,
and beat hasty retreat down stairs, ana
came out as wet as drowned rats"
There are two new papars started here
making three for this little town. Pretty
long division, should think.
