TERRELL, April 23.--The beaut;fu,
thriving and prosperous little civ o.
Terrell Is situated thirty miles east NJ
DALLAS, at the junction of the Texas
Pacific and Houston g. Texas Central
railroads. Hither your correspondant
has hied, and is at present puest of
the Crescent hotel. Partaking of :
good, substantial meal and jivbtina
our fragrant Havana, we start on 3
tour of inspection of the city. Instead
of dilapidated, implanted houses nsn.
ally seen in towns of this size, the eve
Is greeted with large, cOmmodions
substantial brick business houses, well
filled with goods, and away from tho
business portions are beautiful. ,asfilv
built residences, with large grassy
lots, an abundance Of shade and orna.
mental trees, the very sight of which
makes one think sit wouldn't be had
to live here.n N

eddy qualified 10 fiji any position in the
state, of Il public character. Besides
his legal attachments, he is well read
in science, art, literature, and history,
aud if elected from this county viii be
one of the brightest lights of the lower
citizens of prominence, and the atior-
neys who reside here are equal in name
and fame TO the best known OF the
state
Judge William Charlton kindly
showed us through the resident portion
of the city, he holding the reins over
pair Of Kentucky's bluegrass thor
Oughbreds. Here we saw many beau.
tiful and magnificent residences, sur
rounded by neatly trimmed cedars,
clinging vines, an abundance Of bloom
ing flowers, and n general seeming Of
home-like comfort that almost made
us think Terrell one of the prettiest
little cities in the state. Judge Charl-
ton perhaps stands at the head OF the
legal profession in Kaufman county.
His welI-knowp legal attachments pro-
cnre for him the conducting Of many
of the most important suits in the
courts.
The general financial status of the
busine IS men of Terrell is solid. Two
| live, spirited papers are published here.
The hotel facilities are however yet
unequal TO the demand. The Crescent
