assignment of business and his honor,
the Judge, left on the midnight train
for Mckinney for rest until Monday
next. Several railroad cases have
been settled by compromise and others
continued till next term, which ac-
counts for the lack of business during
the rest of the week. After two more
weeks of civil business the criminal
docket will be taken up.
