The Austin Statesman having shown &C.

deeply injured the country and is still njuring

As ALL The Governors who have ruled over
Texas have been lawyers the LIGHT is search
ing for bucolic and bovine gentleman, COM
monty termed farmer, whom it proposes to
enter as the dark horse. There are plenty
of farmers able to fill the Office of Governor
and farmers are tired out upon "cold should
err" the only dish set before them by the
politicians. A farmer, running as an indie
pendent, or rather, as the nominee of the
people, would distance Ireland, or any other
lawyer. Look out for the dark horse from
the farm, and "don't you forget it," either.
FROM an article in the Times, Of yesterday,
headed 'John Ireland" we infer that parties
are already plotting and intriguing to trip up
the gubernatorial heels OF the wise man of
Seguin. The Times should have unmasked
these parties. Our idea is, that because
man is chosen Governor once, is no reason
why he should have "walk over" the track
the second heat. The people want the ablest

We urge the duties of Christianity upon
the consciences of men; but duties are
constraints till they are changed into
charms by love. The very word duty is q
harsh one, until the heart grasps it and
then the lowliest service and the boldest
endeavor are cheerfully accepted and
welcomed. To win men to the perform
auce of Christian duties, it is necessary to
win them to the love Of him who requires
them, and TO the love of those for whose
benefit they are required. Stanley.

Proceedings OF tho Sessions Yesterday
Interesting Reports and Discussions.
Tho Columbia Baptist association roas-
sembled at 1880 o'clock yesterday morning.
The session was opened with devotional exer-
cises, which continued one hour An inter
estiug address was delivered by Rev. Mr..
Goslin, colored minister. lie said it grieved
him to SEQ that tho Baptist church did not
occupy the position IL should at the head
of all the churches. Tho church should
spread its wings over the world and extend
its works in every land. He said his people
the colored people-wero becoming enlight-
ened chiefly through the Baptist religion.
The business session began at IL o'clock,
when the moderator Rev. Dr. Meador, took
the chair. Tho report of tho committee on
Bible aud tract distribution was read. II
showed tho work to have been very salts
factory. The report called special attention
to the largo number of Bibles, tracts, and
hymn books given away daily by the Phila-
delphia Baptist Publishing company. Tho
report was adopted. Remarks were made on
the subject by several delegates. The report
of tho committee on total abstinence was
submitted. 1t stated that, though tho evil of
intemperance was becoming widespread and
alarming, thoy had found encouragement in
their work. The committee recommends
that efforts be made to secure proper legisla-
tion on tho subject of prohibition, without
which they think that their most ardent
efforts would be of but little good.
The report on Sunday schools was next
submitted. 1t urged the necessity of homo
instruction, and recommended that tho move
ment to divide the Sunday school work from
that of the church be checked as the ono was
dependent upon the other. 1t also recon-
mended that each Sunday school set aside at
least one Sunday in each month for missionary
4 AI..A
occasions be given to mission work. A gen.
eral discussion followed the reading Of the
report, during which the necessity of regular
systematic mission work was set forth. Rev.
Mr.. Anderson, Of Philadelphia, delivered an
eloquent address upon the subject.
At the afternoon session the report on Sun
day schools was further considered and q
lengthy discussion onsued by Dr. yelling,
Rev. G. NJ. p. King, Hon. A. M. Clapp. and
others.

Damaging Storms In, Dakota.

GRAN p FoRKs, Ang. 90 90 lis seyerest
storm of the summer swept over a por-
ton Of North Dakota early Sunday
morning. There is great anxiety here
regarding the damage done to. crops.
From the best sources of inform ations /
can say that the damage as a. whole is
comparatively small but. in places where
the cyclone struck with hail thewfelis
are badly hurt. Reports have been re.
ceivrd as far west as the Cheyenne river,
south of DEVILS lake, where hail pound-
ed the crops into the. ground, and the
damage in the Cheyenne valley is esti-
mated at $50 600. The storm passed in
anortheasterly direction It was very
severe south of Hump lake, and at Mapes
and Michigan City, on the western line
OF the Manitoba road. AT Mapes sew
eral claim shanties were blown down.
North of Larimore the storm, again
struck hard, and several farmers lost
nearly all their crops. Several buildings
were blown down there and one or two
persons injured. In Gilby and Johnston
townships, twenty miles northwest of
Grand Forks, hail did considerable dam
age, The storm appears to have spent
itself on reaching the Red river. On the
north line Of the railroad scarcely any
damage was done. No damage was done
within twenty miles of Grafton and no
damage south Of that place at all. Wild
rumors Of terrible devastation are en-
tirely ungrounded. The storm has been
severe in places, but, as compared with
the acreage sown over which it passed,
the damage was very slight.
LAR1MoRE, OAK, Aug. 20-The most
serious hail and wind storm that has
swept this region for number Of years
visited here Sunday morning. 1t ragged
from southwest to northeast, and from
reports for distance of over sixty miles
doing great damage. Many farmers
near here are ruined, losing from 500 to
600 acres or grain each. John Murphy
lost 61O acres, which was estimated a
few days ago at an average of nearly
forty bushels per acre, and the entire
field will be a total loss. Numerous
hous es and barns were blown down. The
loss to this vicinity is placed at over
$4,000. The storm also did great dam
age in Cheyenne valley, several hun
dred acres being totally destroyed.
