\ Carolinian'S Return,

Il. Il. Fowler, a native of this County,
has returned from Ellis County, Texas,
to which sections he emgrnted about sew
enteen months ago under the impression
that he could greatly improve his for
tunes. The experience which lie relates
acc0rds with many similar narratiOEs
which are being recited by scores Of our
citizens who recently returned, impressed
with the folly Of the dcusion that better
opportunities are offered in the Lone
Star State than in the little Palmetto. The
travellers find that in many instances
they have the benefit Of much better
advantages at home.
MIR. Fowler states that he planted %
acres in cotton last season. From this
he gathered but two bales in consequence
of the ravages Of the boil worm. The
cotton cannot hc picked for less than IS
cents to 81 per hundred pounds, and the
price of living is high. TIE season be-
fore this was so dry that the crops were
almost completely destroyed. Mr.. Fow.
lcr complains especially Of the insects
which attack the crops and says that
farmers rarely hit it, with so many
disadvantages TO contend with. In wet
weather The boil worm and various spe-
cies of insects appear. and when
drought comes there is little chance of
making much. The corn crop was the
only growth that yielded well last season,
the oats and wheat being badly damaged
by rust. The country in which he loca-
ted was comparatively healthy but wood
and water we're scarce, i. being necessary
to haul the former in some Instances for
ten miles. The waller Was by no means
as palatable rs the South Carolina article.
There were no cotton factories and the
best cotton sells for s cents The facili-
tics for attending schools and churches
were very inferior being much less than
in this State. Land is not M equally di-
vided ii, iii i,s section and the neonIe
are generally poorer than in this locality.
NJ. Fowler says That cmigrants are re.
turning almost rs rapidly rs they depart,
from the "old States," and predicts that
every man who goes to Texas will come
back eventually If he can secure the
means to do so. Mr. Fowler advises
every young man to stay at home. aud
thinks there will he much better chance
for him here than in Texas GreenriHe
Neus.

The Colonel was taking drink at the

"No, he isn't n membr of the Legislature.
He is very intelligent looking young

The Burlington's Line to Salt
Lake.

1t is said that on the 1sL of Sep
TENDER work on the new line to
Ogden will be commenced by the
Chicago. Burlington and Quincy,
and it is rumored that when Ogden
is once reached, the Burlington will
not rest satisfied with any passen-
ger agreement with the Central
Pacific, but that the Burlington will
build line Of its own to California.
At all events, the constructing Of a
lire to Ogden may be looked for as
among the certainties of the coming
autumn. The Burlington moves
slowly and cautiously and is always
reticent about its plans, but ever
since the line reached Denver it has
had its eyes on the country beyond,
AMI ths growing importance Of
Salt Lake and the Pacific coast trade
has ripensd desires into intention.
The projected line to Salt Lake has
been the subject of railroad rumors
all suAmer, and though some of
these have been without foundation
enough has now been learned to
warrant the prediction that extern
siye building operations to the
Mormon country may be reckoned
among the certainties this fall

Recovering a Lost Wagon.

In the village OF W-livad man
who bad once been Judge of the
county, and was known ali over it by
the name OF judge L. He kept a
store and saImill, and was always
sure to have the best OF barga ain on
his side, by which means he had
gained an ample competency. and
some did not hesitate TO call him
''the biggest rascal in the world. Z"
he was very conceited Withal, and
used TO delightto brsg OF his business
capacity whenever any one was near
to listen. One rainy day, as quite a
number were seated around the stove
in the store, he began, as usual, TO
tell his great bargains, and at last
wound up with the expression, mo
body has ever cheated me, nor they
can't neither"
Judge" said an old man o! the
company, "I've cheated you MORN
you ever did me-"
"How SOP" asked the Judge,
eff you'll promise you won't go to
law about it, nor do nothing, I'll tell,
or els won't; you ara too much OF
a law character for me"
Lets hearl let's bearT' cried half
q dean voices.
"I'll PROMISE" said ta7 Judge,
and treat in the bargain"
well. do you remember that wa
gon you robbed me out OPP
81 never robbed you out OF any va.
gon," exclaimed the Judge; II only
got the best OF bargain. -
"Well, I made up my mind to
have it back, and
"You never did" interrupted the
cute Judge.
''Well, you see. judge. I sold you
one day very nice pine log, and
bargsined with you for a lot more.
Well, that log / stole of your pile,
down by your mill, the night before,
and the next day I sold is 10 you.
The mex. night l drew it back home,
and sold it 10 yon toe next day; and
80 / Kept on until you had bought
your own log OF me twenty-seven
times"
That is ialsel" exclaimed the in
iuriated judge, running to his bcoks
and examining his log accounts;
"you never sold Us tWenty>sevan logs
of the same measurement
81 know it," said the vendor in
logs; Shy draw Jug it back and forth
the ends wore of until it was only
ten feet long-j 'ss fourteen shorter
than it was the fret time I brought
it-snd when it grew 90 short I dcew
it homa again and worked it uD into
and then I concluded baG
go: my wagon back and slowed away
in my poke boob. 4"
The exclamation OF the judge was
drowned in the shouts OF the by
ISLANDERS, and the IogdraWer found the
door without the promised treat.
And 10 see man mad you have only
to ssk the judge if be ever was rob-
bed.
