The president to-day signed the bin

The Texas delegation IL divided with
reference to tho Mexican treaty. Some
think the treaty a job In the interest OF
special manufactures. Others think II
ut least an entering wedge, and that
Texas will DO the chief beneficiary. A
strong effort Is to DO made TO get up a bill
TO carry the treaty into effect at this sos

SABINE PASS THEPoRT.

The attention of the thinking men OF
the state is being directed to the practi-
cability of securing port Of entry on
the guilt coast with deep water in the
harbor. The money already spent on
tho sand-bars of Galveston without
avail, the futile efforts made through a
series of years to accomplish anything
whatever, the monopoly of grasping cor
poration, AID above all considers
tions, the necessity of abandoning every
hope of aid for other points and the
stalking of the issue on the oft failing
city by the sea, appeal with much force
to those who desire an ocean outlet for
the state.

GREAT FAMILIES IN AMERICA

For long time after the revolu-
tionary war the people of the United
States could not divest themselves of
the aristocratic tendencies of the mother
country. The disposition to make
WASHINGTON king was very strong,
and the fact of his being childless has
been considered most providential for
our Republican form of government.
But they did in those days assign
magnified importance and consequence
to old families which were now in some
states, Interrupted, as the social system
has been by the rude shock OF war, mas
not altogether disappeared.
In the New England states IL was
conspicuously observable among the
descendants of the pilgrim fathers
The WINTHRoPs, ADAMS and LAW
RENEE families, with many Others, had
all the respect and homage usually moi
dent to a patent of nobility. For several
generations these families ind others
were accorded such political position as
they desired, and by reason OF wealth
accumulated maintained the elevated
riches in the temple of worldly homage.
Gradually, however, their influence has
subsidized until the grandeur OF patrician
ancestry has been submerged by the
mere practical demands of progressive
republicanism.
In New York the SCHUYLEEs, LIv-
INosToNEs, INCONSISTENCIES and
CLlNToNs were most prominent as
leaders in political as well as social life.
But the idolatry once accorded them ID
among the things of the past, and the
leaders of the thought of the Empire
state lead in all other departments.
Here and there we find a gentleman Of
highly respectable department. who, wo
are told, is a descendant of the old
KNIcKBRBoCKERs, but beyond u
kindly feeling of regard he Is
no more considered than any other
citizen of the great republic.

longer furnish the stock from which TO
select the popular leaders. The leaders
are no longer distributed per stripes, but
the places of trust and honor are sccor-
ded those whose native energies and
vigorous intellectually push them to
the mont. And this is but the exempii-
iieation OF the great results Of Repubii-
