THE News, of Galveston bar, that takes
delight in little ugly filings, is really a
good paper, and most of its articles are
read by persons who have leisure. But
is 1t satisfied that the way of cody treat
ing others with indifference and quasi
contempt, is the best plan when other
people don't recognize its claim to such
elevated dignity and department?
Truly now, cannot the News recognize
the fact that "the scepter has departed
from Israeli" No sane person bends
the knee to waning powers.

THE difference between social regula-
tons in Europe and America is becom-
ing more noticeable daily. A French
principal in Paris objected to young
girl of her school being accompanied TO
the gate of the institution by her cousin.
She told her her reputation would be in
jured by such conduct. The Parisians
want missionaries on social questions.
If gentleman in this country had a
daughter that he thought wanted watch
ing between his house and school, he
would send her abroad. But our women
are better than the men, and most of the
watching comes from the females. In
the proud state of Texas, as in every
state of the south, the boast of our civil
lization is the innate purity of our wo-
men and their absolute unacquaintance
with wrong. A southern lady is more
unsupported than Mrs. CESAR, and it is
simply narrowing to mention the sub
iect. Are there exceptions? Yes, un
doubleday, and the revolving sun throws
off from its brightness the blacklist o
carbon flakes, but this does not Prov
the sun to be aught than the centre o
brilliancy.

"Grass is Free 3"

These two upper counties, Wilbarger
and Hardeman, are settling up rapidly,
owing TO the fact that good agricultural
land can be bought of the state by actual
settlers at 81 per acre, and on thirty
years time, with per cent. interest.
These counties have no wire fences, and
grass is practically free.
The above is clipped from a Wichita
letter to the Fort Worth Gazette. We
are glad to see tbs Gazette and it's cor
respondents admitting at last that that
"grass is practically free" What made
the free grass, if not the lease aud en-
closure laws which tho Gazette
so loudly opposed? A few weeks
ago kilograms from the same Sec
ton announced that since the enclosure
law had gone in force (January u the
pasture monopolists were rolling up
their wire fences and leaving the range
tree. When this enclosure law does
away with the illegal wire fences, as has
been admitted by even the GaZette's
correspondents and when the lease law
prevents the like monopoly of school
lands by line riding and other substi
tutes for fencing, why did the Gazette
oppose these laws, claiming that they
denied the small man free range? The
| Reporter SAID then and ever since thai
the Gazette's "free grass" was
a MISSIONER, and meant just the
opposite Of free range. The land leg
islation was in the interest of the set
tiers and the small stockman, and thu
Gazette and some other friends of tn.
monopolists, succeeded in making
many believe otherwise. But the en-
forcement of the laws are making
things clear. Whatever defects Their,
may be in the law, and there are some
will no doubt be corrected Ivy the pres
ent Legislature, in the interest Of tn
settlers and the small stockmep-th
actual settlers and developers of tn
country. Yes, "grass is practical,
Free" since tho much abused and mis-
understood laws have begun TO be en-
forced Abilene Reporter.

THE Sabine Pass has, of it's own ma
tural working, increased depth from six
and one-half to seventeen and one-half
feet in six years. With the APP
preparation of $4,000 what may not be
accomplished? 1t certainly has secured
the confidence of the state, the congress
and the thinking people as a safe and
easily habilitated harbor. Whilst poor
cycloned Galveston sits grinning on It's
spnd-bar without anything to employ
her lighters with save the vessels anG
cargoes sent out by the twenty-ont
members of the Merchants Exchange
of Dallas. When congress and the leg

ness to Dallas traitors to the interests o.
their city the HERALD will be prepared

GEN. W. n. STEELE.

was heard with great regret by those
who knew him and his history. At the
time the civil war broke out GEN.

the senior captain in the regiment. A
New Yorker by birth, he was still q

Il strict believer in the doctrine OF state
rights. Having married into Florida
family of considerable political promi-
hence, and his wife Miss DuvAL, niece
of the late JUDGE DUVAL) being in
tenscly southern, the position in which
he found himself was very embarrass-
ing and painful. He was, in principle,
an advocate of southern ideas, yot every
relative he<Aad on earth; every friend,
associate and connexion, save by his
marriage, were northern.
Yet CAPT. STEELE did not hesitate

THE Galveston News cannot refrain
from evincing it's hostility to Dallas.
Even its correspondent at 4 Justin puts
in his oar, by saying Mr.. DAVIS bill to
abolish the Tyler term of the supreme
court is in the interests of Dallas. Upon
inquiry among the leading attorneys of
this city, it is leorned that they knew
nothing of Mr.. DAVIS intention to in
troduce the bill, but they all agree in
saying that owing to the superior rail-
road connections Dallas now enjoys,
which would be of immense convent
ence to those having business in the
court, this city would be by far the
most eligible point in north Texas. But
with the News it is anything to deiea
any measure that might be beneficial tt
other cities of the state, in order tina
Galveston may have prestige in ever,
