THE LATE BUSINESS UNPLEAS-
ANTNESS

The annual circular of X. G.. bus 4
Co., Tor 1884, has been handed the HHa-
AID. 1t Is compiled statement of the
failures for the last year aud compare
tive and tabulated review of affairs
commercial since 1893. As before stated
in the HERALD the actual number of
ia.luresin 1884 was, in the whole union,
1885. OF these 2,29l occurred in tho
states oil Virginia, West Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia.
Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Lou 81.
ana, Texas, Arkansas, Kentucky and
Tennessee. In tho same states in 1888
there were lisa, and the liabilities in
1894 were S2S,3lS.5i whilst in 1888 they
were Slo,7S5,6Oi. Passing over interven.
ing wears, in 1873 the number OF failures
in the same territory was only l,ll5,
whilst the liabilities reached S26,S ,96l.
showing that whilst In the year that
marked the beginning of the recovery
from the fearful depression of 1873 and
years following the failures were almost
twice as numerous, the liabilities were
but little greater. The condition OF at.
fairs can be fairly considered as being
not much more than halfaS bad in 1854
As it was in 1878.
OF these failures Texas, though the
largest state, had fewer traders than
Kentucky-Texas having 1874, and
Kentucky 1884. From the table pre-
pared, II will be seen that there has beer
constant decrease OF proportion be-
tween the number of failures and tho
amount failed Tor. There Is no caus,
for gloomy forebodings in this state
mont, but ON the contrary great reason
| for cheerful anticipations. The lessenot
per centage for the year 1854 over thu
last preceding, is 10 per cent.
But the phenomenal feature of thi,
pinch in monetary affairs IL tho abun
dance Of money itself. Crops have beer

rest OF the world has been farming also
The consequences is that surplus re

Oh the Post armory, were guests
Nhiteiaw Reid presented Mr.. Sala
10 the company. Sala, in speech, dis
Grained the insinuations of some of
the morning journals that his OBJ
Ject III visiting the United States
was purely mercenary one. He
proposed to devote the funds accrsing
from his lectures to mercy, char
Ivy and benevolence. Speaking Of
England he sid: "Thei British empire
Is surrounded by enemies, who hate her
because she is honest and tries
10 be tree She is hated by Germany,
who also hates the United States,
because the down trodden peas
antry OF Germany find an asylum
mere England is also hated by France,
the so-called Democracy, where
MOP rule obtains. But
blood is thicker than water
anu This country, no matter what differ
ehceS they may have had, cannot forget
this fact"
Henry Ward Beecher, regretting his
absence, said: saturday night is too

SUNDAY, JANUARY IL. 1885.

The HERALD, during the sitting of
the Legislature, will be delivered in
Austin several hours earlier than are
the papers published in Galveston and
Houston. This announcement is made
because heretofore the trains running
between this city and Austin, when the
legislature was in session, left Dallas in
the evening and the HERALD did not
reach the Capital City until the morn
ing after publication. The members of
the legislature will receive the HERALD
promptly ON the day OF publication, con-
tanning full legislative proceedings,
with other interesting state news.

A Scholarly Actor

One OF the marked characteristics of
the Shakespearian interpretations Of
George C. Min is their evident scholar
ship and intellectually. 1t is apparent
to the most casual that every phase in
the plays presented has been the subject
of profound consideration, and that
all the details of acting and costumes
have been carefully considered. Mr..
Min is admirably fitted to lead Shakes
perian revival in this country. His ed
ucation has been liberal ana complete,
and his enthusiasm for the Shakesperian
drama is second TO that of no actor on
the American stage. Ii is not matter
of surprise that his performances have
been accorded the first rank
in this regard. lie not only
carefully considers his own roles, but is
scrupulously exact in the rehearssls of
his company. The lines are not spoken
in periunctOry manner, but each
member OF the company is compelled to
analyze and understand his part. Thus
complete and harmonious whole is
presented.

POLITICAL POINTS.
THE CALIFORNIA SENATE LOCK
Versus Don Cameron-Testimony Before
The Springer COMMUNICATION the
Negroes Crossed from Gov
ingtOnThe Inquiry.
The Lot Wright Iniuuily.

CINCINNATI, Jan. l0.-The testimony
before the Springer Investigating com
mittee this morning was of the same
character that has already been given.
Edgar NJ. johnson, law partner of Gov.
Hoadley, testified in the United States
court room to facts similar to testimony
of other witnesses. He was indignant
upon seeing in the United States clerks
Office cartoon of Cleveland as hang
man and demanded its removal.
Mr., Bush, of Winchester, Kentucky,
told OF crowds of strangers in the civ
and about the polls. II. f. Forney, an
artlst, went to the United States court
room and visited some polling places,
lie antlc pated serious riot and was
expecting to make sketches for eastern
publication, but the sketches were not
ordered.
n. G. Caldwell, smoke inspector, testi-
lled TO haYing seen an unusual number
OF strange negroes i'll the city several
days prior to the October election. The
number was remarkable. He saw men
on the streets apparently taking names
81 negroes, and saw prominent Reuubli
cans talking with negroes He was not
AFRAID TO vote, but his family urged him
not to go to the polls. He saw deputy
marshals holding Republican tickets.
On cross-examination he said he knew
there was q negro Odd Fellows couyen-
ton here at the time.
Policeman Terrell testified 10 tho in
reference by negro deputy marshals
with him when in performance OF his
duty at the sixth ward polls. He saw
Powell Clayton, A. NJ. Sullivan and two
others come there in hack and heard
them say concerning himself: "The
sooner that S. Of u b. is got cut Of
The way, the better.h
Othcr witnesses examined were JAS,
Weara, Waterman on suspension bridge,
NJ. Bolan and Patrick ROlan, policemen
Of Covingt0n, r. b. Thorpe, deputy mar
shall on duty at twenty-hfth ward polls,
John Faulker, Of Indiana, j, Murphy, of
Cincinnati.
Weala and the two Bolans said they
saw many negroes crossing the bridge
into Cincinnati the night before the
election. Faulkner described the shoot
ing scene in the eighth ward. Thorpe
saw a negro arrested for Illegal voting.
He had Democratic ticket. Murphy
described how lie was knocked down
and shot in the fourth ward.
Mr.. Toilet said he thought he could
end the testimony in two more DAYS.
Mr.. Springer said he wonld probably
close the investigation next Saturday.

prices. Something has been going
wrong. Values have not been properly
adjusted, and confidence withdrawn
locked up the treasures of those who
were wont to seek investment.
There is now no disturbing
political causes affecting the general
welfare. The necessaries of life
are cheap and by judicial legislation
can be made cheaper. An European
war would set us atioat by increasing
the price of productions. Other adven-
titious causes may intervene to unclog
the money stream, but apart from such
problematical events, the natural state
OF affairs must be resumed when the sit
uation is thoroughly understood and
the ample resources of the country
demonstrated.
In the meantime, without relapsing
into the austerity of our ancestors,
whose simple modes of life could not be
appreciated by the present generation,
it vii! be necessary tor our people TO
take new departure in their style of
living, to retrench in domestic expendi-
lures and give year or so of serious
thought to the adaptation of income and
outgo.

Notes from waco.

WACO, Jan. lo.-[Special. A strong
EFFORT is to be made at once to raise
$4,000 in Waco for the endowment
fund of Waco University. The Baptists

for the same purpose, which cannot b.
realized until Waco complies with her
promise to get up i20,ON. This is con
dition To the permanent location of the
university here. Vase has not raised

National Commissioners Msmoria,

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. lO.-The United
states commissioners Of the Worlds
exposition unanimously adopted long
memorial to tho legislatures
of their respective states and
territories. This memorial rives
2 resume Of the situation and en-
larges on the gigantic proper
lions the Exposition has assumed.
They speak OF the difficulties
which beset the great enterprise, the an
firing energy of the management and
the impossibiliry, unless relieved,
to do what they originally
intended for the state exhibits. In
conclusion the memorial says: 1t is
for the purpose of urging upon
you the Importance of this undertaking,
and with the hope Of inducing you to
appropriate the additional funds as
needed, whenever you may learn from
your commissioner more is necessa-
ry. We have in the interest
of our common country ventured
thus TO address you. That each and
every state should have a complete rep
resentative exhibit is for the advantage
OF all the states.

DEEP wArER-PRoFouND FOLLY

The meeting called yesterday of the
members OF the Merchants exchange
came off last evening, and a more ridic-
ulous piece OF charlatanry has seldom
been witnessed. The Galveston wor-
shippers, after drumming the city
for days with printed lists of the
200 members in the hands of agents, I'M
ploring friendly assistance in The inter
ests OF hostile city, succeeded in get
ting twentyone votes to sustain them
in their Quixotic nonsense. Those who
did not vote or attend remained away
because they thought the subject was
not one for the consideration of Dallas
people, aud yet on q vote the resolutions
were only passed by vote of twenty
one to sixteen. Had the full member
snip been present, the Galveston idoIa-
tors would never have dared spring the
absurdity, but as it is, the party whose
zeal and activity have been so surpris-
ingly manifested in the adoption of reso-
lutiOns, 50 inmical to the city's inter
ests, could only secure a meagre vote
of retained friends from the
whole catalogue of members.
And now let this roaring, side-splitting
farce cease. If individual members
have friends in Galveston whose favor
they desire, they have testified their
fidelity to their friendship, even at the
expense of suspicion as to no very
profound affection for their own homes.
But it is pointless. The whole agitation
has been the result Of personal effort
for personal considerations, and the
miserable failure to awaken enthusiasm
for their beloved city by the sea, should
teach them that an artificial sentiment
can not be created by men where stub
born facts present themselves in oppo-
sition to their sophistical reasoning.
Tell US, We worshippers of the heredi-
tary enemy of your city, what do you
imagine you have accomplished?

LITTLE Rock, Jan. lO.-About three
fourths of the members of the legis-
lature, which is to meet on Monday,
have arrived. The absorbing question
is the senatorial succession, interest
in which is increased by the gen
eral belief that the successor
to Garland must also be elected before
adjournment. The most prominent can
didates are Congressman Jones and
Dunn and Gov. Berry, all OF whom it
is believed will be found
nearly equal on open ballot. Senator
Walkers withdrawal from the race has
strengthened Berry by uniting on him
the strongly Democratic northwest.

stitutional amendment forbidding the
payment $ll,000,0O railroad and levee
bonds, ratified in September, Dan. II.
Duvall, and W. w. Mansfield, are also
candidates, Only fifteen Republicans
are in the Legislature and no caucus will
be held.

GEN. HAwLEY has introduced into
the senate new international copy
right bill. The substance of it is to give
to foreign authors the same rights that
our own citizens enjoy. This would me-
cessitate the publication of the foreign
book here on the same day it is issued
from THE press abroad. No immediate
advantage accrues to American authors
by this new bill except such as arise
from the inducement held out to foreign
governments to grant us the same priv
ileges. The law is analogous to our
alien laws in this, that the privilege is
restricted to such countries as accord us
the same.

MIR. HUNTINGTON has returned from
his special railroad tour in the south
west lie processes himself satisfied
aud says the reason the Houston & Texas
Central has not paid up her coupons is
because the road has not earned the in

buying up the coupons before his re-
turn for the benefit of such as might
want their money, of which there are
more than several.
