following telegraphic dispatch:
Marshall, Tex, September 25.-The

the publication OF the contents of IA

the edge of the town, and can easily
get out to hold meetings. We held
two meetings-one at Riukley's one
mile from town, and another on Sabine
river bridge, and had large crowd
from across the river. Austin Randall
spoke to the crowd, rs also did our

Maj. PENIS Ga mp Meeting,


Rev, NJ Penn has come and gone.
He utiers notes of triumph, for did he
not convert over hundred sinners in
this modern Babylon? Did he not in
wade the territory of the great adver-
sary, clad only in the armor of right
eousness and armed with the word of
God, and in hand-to-hand conflict
with the cohorts of sin. vanquish the
enemy and capture hundred OF his
warriors? Yea, verify, have l done
all this, says the redoubtable disci-
Iple of the church militant, and will
so forth with my banner flying and
inscribed with the legend, vc'i pic}i,
pjoi.
The good man claims to have con-
verted over one hundred sinners here
IN Fort Worth. We trust he has.
That number at least have protested
repentance, renowned the WAYS of the
world, the flesh and the devil, and
have been received into the grace of
church fellowship. But though the
spirit is willing, the flesh Is proverbi-
ally weak, and it is no strange thing
to lapse back in the paths of sin-that
notably broad way trodden by the feet
of SO many pilgrims.
Religious change under the infu-
ence OF such emotional excitement as
prevails at camp-meetlngs, induced by
the magnetic effect OF pow
ertul preacher upon scnsl-
tive and Impressive organiza-
lions, still further acted upon by the
sympathetic influence that pervades
the individual parts of q large cengre.

ligious ardor cools and resolutions are

His insldious advances are unfelt at
first, but llttle'by little he sedulouslv

lower.
New thought is animating the re.
llgious world, and new feelings domi-
nate the churches. The pillow of sci.
entiilc truth is turning up the sodded
fields OF religious creed. What is or
thodoN to-day would have suffered nj
the stake for heresy century ago.
Among the fading relics of falling
theology are the glorles Of
an oldeI time camp meeting.
Not many of the younger
generation OF today know anything
OF the fervor with which the exercises I

An Imnronar Shirt.

No surprise need he excited that
there are newspapers in Texas capable
Of utterin% such sentiments as arc ex-
pressed IN this extract:
The Erdoiaer says a capitalist came
TO waco with 100000 to buy land, but
shen he learned how fence-cutting was
hothering the West he shook the dust
from his feet and departed, almost
frightened out OF his wits ut the bare
idea OF investing money in such n
country. The Examiner considered
this as one OF the evil results of fence
cutting. five mistake not, the people
complaccney, and he almost
brings about such results. For every
S500o 600 invested in lands by one man
that fails, Texas will receive 1000 in
vestlnents from 900 different men.
and settle up the acres that the capi-
talist would fence Off into compare

already enough overgrown pastures,

Texas may make for him in building
up other states. 1t is fact that fence
cutting has frightened or several OF
the big pasture companies aud il Is 10
be hoped that che fright will be lasting
enough to keep them OF.
The investment of $4,000 In Texas
means the addition of half million
dollars to her taxable wealth, the EN-
ployment of TeNas labor, the improve
ment of Texas lands and the enhance
ment of the value of surrounding pro-
perry. The assumption that the I'M
vestment would have been put in
overgrown pastures y is badly
strained, as is also the assertion that
FOR every S50O,O00-capltalist driven off
thousand farmers will take his place.
The general experience tends TO the
conviction that farmers have no more
love for the society of outlaws than
have capitalists,
A lurking communism is TO lie de-
tected IN the expressions OF the proceed
ing quotation. No respectable proper
ton of the people of Texas approve
such sentiments.

THE Englishman changes his Sky
but not his mind when he becomes Il
British colonist. The prime minister
Of British Columbia, took the occasion
Of being invited TO luncheon with VIZ
LARp's party, to impart to his hosts
his personal and official conviction
that the territory over which he had
the honor to preside would shortly alb
sorb the American Northwest, in
Guiding the Northern Pacific railroad
since the American Union was destined
to speedy disintegration. 1t is rat hel
cheerful that SMITH counts on "the
new type of men and women of unap-
proachable physique which has ap-
peared In British Columbia, to fulfill
his prophecy, and IL would be inter
csting 10 know whence he got his
type since the adult natives OF
British Columbia MIST be mostly In

Estimates Of The Cotton OroD,

The per centage Of deficiency in the
great Southern staple ercp cannot be
accurately determined until the yield
sail marketed, bat experienced deaf
ers can estimate so closely nom the
average results SO far obtained, that
their figures do not vary largely from

dundant supply of last wear
reduced prices 10 "a minimum, which
che shortage Of this year will probably

Demi-sason capes called epaulet ne

pretty dolman or polonaise with ran
iels when the wearer quits the train

This indicates shortage Of almost
l,lo9,oo0 bales, a falling of OF full
twenty per cent. The reduction Is
most marked Ia Texas, where the yield
will be one-third less this year than
last. A disastrous drouth Is account
able for the extraordinary decrease of
10000 bales in this state.
Cotton factors advise farmers to hold
their cotton for higher prices, which
will surely come. Last years large
crop is not fully consumed, and buyers
will not bear prices while the old sup
ply holds out. When this Is exhausted
they must replenish their stock, and
if farmers hold their cotton off the
market for a month or two, prices
must advance,

SUCH language as this, coming from
so eminent Republican authority as
the New York Times, does not CON
firm the superstition that Republi-
cans are irrevocably attached to pro-
lection. Says the Times.
"Tho Missouri free trade league is
one of the most energetic and earnest
of the many which have been formed
during the last few years, and its pol
ley is to enlist all who are in sympa-
thy with 1t, irrespective of party. Its
leading members are, rs matter of
fact, gathered from both parties. In
view of the steady and persistent eff
forts Of such organizations, ana the de-
gree of influence that they are gain
ing, especially in the West, it it alto.
gether sagacious in the statesmen of
the Republican party to insist that
that party shall make protection as it
now exists d prominent and decisive
article OF their political creed in the
next national canvass ?"

THE proposed commercial treaty be-
tween the United states and Mexico,
is exciting great deal Of attention in
England, where they place more sig.
nificance upon foreign yelations than
we do, especially commercial relations.
Fear that more intimate relations
with Mexico on our part may imperil
British interests and supplant their
trade in that country, urges parliament
to consider the matter closely, with the
view Of ayerting the danger 10y recip-
rocal treaties Of commerce. 1t would
not be astonishing if our dull govern
ment at Washington were TO let Eng
land take the trade of Mexico away
from this country, though 1t lies right
at our doors.

Tom Ochiltree's term of Office as

on the 4th of March, but the Comp
troller of the Treasury has forbidden
the payment to him of any portion OF
bis salary until settlement or COM
promise is made with regard to the
shortage in his accounts when U. S.
Marshal under Grant. He claims
that the shortage was not due to his
shortcomings, but as Toms word
and holy writ are antipodal in the
scale of veracity, the Departments
prefers to investigate the matter.
This condition of affairs would
seriously embarrass any other man,
but as Tom Ochiltree has managed
to dress handsomely; feed high; drive
fine horses and board at the best
hotels for years without either money
or credit, be will probably be able to
get along just as we'll without salary
as with it during his Congressional

THE Emperor of Germany has
conferred the rank of field marshal of
the German Empire upon the Prince
of Wales. This is the first time that
so high a military honor has been
conferred upon a foreign prince,
though it is no uncommon thing for
the Emperor of Russia, Germany and
Austria to commission foreign princes
as Colonels of regiments. The honors
however are empty ones, as they are
not expected to assume command or
draw the pay,but are entitled to such
respect and privileges when visiting
the country as is commensurate with
the rank conferred upon him.
