OLD RoCKDALE,

Political Letbargy and Dull Times.
Correspondence OF the Gazette.
ROoKDALE, TEX, Sept. 22.-After a
pleasant sojourn in the quaint, cozy,
sleepy old town of Rockdale l find
myself 10th TO leave it's comforts and
generous Inequalities, and still more
reluctantly relinqulsh association
with some ofthe most entertaining and
highly cultured gentlemen with whom
~ pei epinations have brought nue.
In contact, would DO injustice 70
myself II failed to acknowledge obll-
cations to Drs. Douthit, Ken
nara, Gordans, Walker and
Messrs. j. H. THOMPSON
and w, II. Branch, for kind offices ex-
tended and pleasant social hours en-
joyed. And just here win congratu-
late the Fort and Northwest Texas
upon the strong probability of our city
very soon enrolling with her scientific
names that of the finest surgeon In
Southern Texas, in the person OF DR..
Walker. The hustle at the Fort Is at
tracing more than one of the enter
prlslng men OF this section of the
state. THE GAZETTE Ia literally pat
ronized here and the peoplespeail With
pride of the rapid development of the
Northwest. This is a slow, plodding
cotton county, with but little diversity OF
agriculture or other industrial pursuits,
and hence, like all such countries, is
necessarily dull when the cotton crop
is short.
Rockdale contains 1000 people, and
the business part of the down IL made
up of substantial brick buildings. The
cotton shipment from here when full
crop Is realized foots up TO 25 900 bales,
but this year the business men expect
hardly half that number. This section
of the state has not had a seasOnabie
rain since the Goth OF May.
The political pulse here beats slowly
and softly. There Is no enthusiasm
over the state ticket, which will be
supported as matter of course.
George Washington Jones' stock Is be,
low par even among his nsost earnest
admirers. They do not like his wear,
ing Greenback clothes and flirting
with black bride at the same time
There is only one way TO wake III
these people politically, and that Ii
the mention OF Cleveland and Hen
bricks, Ii Is then that sanguinC
smile plays upon their faces.

AM Escaped Convict Captnred.

Special TO the Gazette.
BELLv1LLE, TEX, Sept. PA. NJ.
I,ockett OF Brennan, assisted by Dep
uty Sheriff Glenn OF this place, ar
rested to-day Nichols SAnsbury, alias
Jake Miller, negro, and AN escaped
convict since 1870. Sansbury was con-
victed for theft in Travis county In
1878, though ne did not toll long In
the penltentiary cells ere making good
his escape and enjoying liberty until
now. He has been living in this
county for the past three years.
The courthouse here having been
condemned by Architect Heiner of
Houston, new one is now the cry and
II Is believed that the commissioners,
at their next session, will order it.
Business Is dull and the everlasting
cry of hard times is unquestionably
pardonable.
A slight rain ls falling tonight aud
Ia much needed to lay the dust, which
was simply superflne.
