apiary wrong; it is Balduif.
The sketch in our last entitled among
Banderas Hills" we meant to have stated

conscious of his condition, and sent mess
age to his friends to live better lives so as
to meet him in heaven.

stand he will place it in different quarters,
but where we are not advised.

CarrOlItOn HOuse--A Good Opening.

When at Austin we called as usual at the
Carrollton House. DR.. Harm, the proprle-
tor went North during the summer for the
benefit of his health, and pretty well re-
covered, but returning too soon to Texas,
relapsed into his former condition OF SEMI
invalid. He informed US he had definitely
decided, on the advice of physicians, to re-
tire from the hotel business on the first of
january. at least until his health shall be-
come permanently restored. Meantime the
house will be for rent, and it strikes us the
opening for some good hotel man is very
good, indeed. The location is pleasant and
convenient, the house commodious ana
spacious, and must always command
good patronage.

II is pretty difficult for one who has

AMI who is also ''family man." to notice
all that is going on which really seems to
demand notice. Hence We failed TO make
mention of late incident in the life Of
Cant. Martin Hinzie, of Palestine, whom
svervbody here well knows. About a month
since Palestine was honored by a visit from
600 members Of the Farmers Alliance, with
. bales of cotton in their control OF

no little interest among the business men
Of Palestine. But Capt. Hinzie, with bis

The Star V n lcator 'bark' up the wrong
tree" when it labors to show that we were
unjust to the memory of poor o, G. Shane
simply because we published the facts of
his death from the San Antonio and other
papers. Our relations with him were al
ways friendly, aud no one sympatizes more
deeply with his bereaved family than we.
But none the less did we deem it our cuty
to add line of warning from his sad fate
and that no doubt was what gave offence to
the moor inebriate of the Blanco Star.
