iect of English Satire. " The young
iady's voice is exceedingly musical, and
she has learned to use il with good mod.
ulation and emphasis. She showed a
most familiar acquaintance with the
great English satirists, but she pro-
nounced Hudibras with broad "a" and

makes it rhyme with ass.
The essay of Miss Shook was an effort

she took up Butler, Swift, Dryden,

Steele, manifesting a good deal of ac.
quaintance with their works. By the

commended for in electing school princi-
pals and superintendent. finer scheme
to cheat the youths of Texas out of lib
eral mental training could hardly be SGT
ON foot. That this illiberal sentiment has
yet made but little Roadway is tribute
to the strong common sense and broad
gagged views of the people.
In the first place, what constitutes
Texan? If nativity is made condition,
then nine-tenths of these ultra patriotic
people would themselves be excluded-a
consequence they would little relish.
Perhaps long stay on Lone Star soil
would confer the title. But who is to fix
the limit of such stay? Would ten, fif-
teen or twenty years suffice? Here, it is
evident, considerable difficulty would
likely ensue. 1t would lead directly to
reductio ad absurdum; the man who had
resided longest would have the best claims.
From all such narrow, know-nothing
ideas it is fitting to pray to be delivered.
Ability, skill, genius are cosmopolitan
unbounded by any laws of locality. The
manufacturer who wishes to hire an ex-
pert machinist to superintend the work
ings of his plant will send for him across
the seas. The state that would give its
youth a chance to imbibe the deepest
draughts at the Pierian spring will exer-
else the same good judgment, If man
is needed who is especially fitted for
particular place, does it matter
WHIT Their he comes from the east or west,
the north or south? 1t is conceded that
if of two men there is no difference as to
capability, home pride will say it is right
that our own be taken first. This no one
will dispute. All other things being equal,
he who has been longest in our midst
should be favored first. But to carry out
the policy that the "none-but-T ad-
vocates, would be to build wall about the
state and shut out fresh and aspiring men,
eager to come and cast their destinies
with the people of great and growing
commonwealth. 1t would be ungenerous
and impolitic. 1t would be mean. Let
there be free trade in intellect as we'll as
commerce. Texas needs no protective
tariff on brains; she welcomes alike work
ers in all vineyards of usefulness, no mat
ter whence they come. AS soon as Texan
soil is pressed, they become Texans-the
most of them forever-and the good
mother that has held out her arms to all
humanity welcomes them and blesses them
at the same time in the plentitude of her
grandeur and benefcence.
