twentv-five years ago, title perfect. These

the most choice in Young. Stephens, Throck-

pleasant and remarkably healthy region, un-

CHARACTER OF POPULATION.
Its people are mostly from the old States, of
a sober, industrious arid intelligent class, and
alive to the importance, of morals, general
imnrovement and progress and enlorcemeut
of the laws, which are rigidly executed.
PROGRESS.
Three and a half years ago, in the whole re-
gion west of Parker and Jack counties, there
was not exceeding 100 stock-raisers and a
score of farmers, both have steadily increased
until to date (September 1877) the population
may safely be estimated at 20,000, and likely
will leach 40,000 by the end of the curren-
yeur.
YOUNG COUNTY.
Has about eight-tenths-arable land ; three-
fifths prairie, "two-fifths timber, rich friable,
chocolate, rnahogony and gray soils. About
]00 miles front on the 5lain, and 20 miles on
the Clear Fork of Brazos river. Superior
quarries of stone, brick and lire clays,
salines, iron and copper prevail, and coal iu
great abundance. The rougher part is the
saut.i-easl portion. ’ Population now, Sep-
tember 1877, about 6,000, and rapidly in-
creasing.
GRAHAM
The county sea t, is handsomely laid out on
beautiful grounds, wilh most attractive sur-
roundings on survey of Texas & Pacific Rail-
way, 85 miles front Fort Worth. Though
scarcely two years old it has now, September
JS77, about (500 inhabitants, and fast increasing
with an'enterprising, thrifty and intelligent
class of people, the: equal of any town in or
out of the State. It has a cotton gin, saw
mill, flouring mill, three blacksmith shops,
one gun and machine shop, one tin shop,
eleven stores, county and telegraph oflices,
one newspaper, the Graham Leader, two
schools, a Prssbyterian and a Methodist
church, and likely soon will have a Baptist
and Episcopal church, etc. This solltl growth,
attained with a proper distance from older
large towns with like position to the West
andsurroundingcountry, which made Waco,
Sherman and Fort Worth, assures ample sus-
taining influences and ressurcesfor its growth
and trade corresponding with the settle-
ment and growth of the country "West.
Another flouring mill and hotel is badly
needed, also tannery, pottery and other
branches not fully represented. Here are
