MABTINDALE, TEXAS, Feb ~, 1886.
Our primitive little village is surrounded
by farms, consequently We have been en-
livened of late by the merry whistle of the
tillers Of the soil.
Notwithstanding the continued dry wealth.
err, which caused the ground to be very hard
and rough, farmers have kept on plowing
and planting, so were prepared for the
splendid rain that has fallen.
We have made but little progress in the
way of gardening,
Compared to tho winters work, our mer-
chants seem to be having quite restful
time, saturdays excepted, of course) and
if appearances are not deceptive, they must
have on hand large supply of smoking to-
bacco and soft pine.
Peof Jordan was in our village q short
time ago. He reports his school in flour
ishing condition. One of his pupils, Mr..
B. Petty, accompanied by MIR. II. Jordan,
made short visit home last week
MIR. A. F.. Fled, one Of the bost sheriffs
in the State, was in the village few days
| ago.
Mr.. Crockett and family have been on Q
visit to Lockhart. They report sickness
there, mostly measles. AS the juvenile por
ton of this community is largely in the ma.
! iority, there is some uneasiness in regard
to the disease becoming prevalent here,
On the 18th inst, Mr.. Jones was united
in marriage to Miss Gary, at the residence
of Mr.. r. Martindale.
Rev. Mr.. Naples primitive Baptist hold
services here on the second Sunday and
Saturday before. -Four accessions to the
church.
Elder ]. J. williamson failed to come The
third Saturday, his usual time for preach
| ing. Have not learned the cause of his ab-
sence.

While there We of course seized the OPP

near by, recently grown 30 famous. II was
our first visit, and wo were quito surprised
TO recognize in tho exterior an old acquaint-
anco, which we made few months after
coming TO this country, and have often since
shown to visitors as o singular natural curl
osity. Tho scene presents front OF mas
siyo natural wall OF considerable height,
surmountod by venerable live oak and elm
troos while ut tho base was an inward de-
preston as il made by water. Tho wall Is
somewhat semi-circular, and faces on Lowell
space, but higher than the immediate base
OF tho lodge
Directly under tho lowest exterior de-
preston, and under the oyerhanging rocks
arc evidences that fire had been built, and
il IL there the fragments Of bones, etc., were
found. The pieces Of leather indicate that
workman in that article had at ono time
held forth there. But this sheltered space

worry great villain has been unearthed
at Austin, in the person of one Salm, an eye
and ear doctor of that place. He is charged
with having seduced Miss Clara Hill, who
at ono time resided in the family of Mr.. j..
A. Bell, of this place, and later with DR..
Client and family, of Bolton. Salm treated
the girl for defective eye, soon after which
she says he attempted to seduce her in his
office, without success. In May last he
called at DR.. Clients, in Bolton. The doc
tor and wife went on short trip on the
cars, and missing the train, were detained
all night, leaving Salm with Miss Hill and
their small children, and during the night
he effected her ruin, and a child was recent
ly the result. She has made affidavit to
these facts, which appears i'll the Statesman
of Tuesday. DR.. Client and wife support
her statements, and say they had every pre-
vious reason TO regard her as virtuous. Salm
returned, just after the disclosure, from At
yanta, where his wife now is, and published
card on Sunday in the Statesman, express
ing his determination to stay and vindicate
himself, but left the same day for parts I'M
known. The Statesman deserves much
credit for its outspoken treatment of the
matter, through which the base fellow has
been held up to just public reprobation.
