The Democrat.
For Congress.
The fame of ilie average congressman
is of such short-lived duration that it
seems hardly worth while now to pay
$20,000 lor an election. Who wants the
nomination in our district ? for there is
nothing equal to Henry’s Carbolic Salvo
for the cure of all sores, wounds, cuts and
skin diseases. Beware of counterfeits.

PRICES TO SUIT THE TIMES
Cotton.
Receipts at all the markets in this section
have been very light during the current
week. Many attribute this to short crops,
and are inclined to rcduce estimates of to-
tal receipts.
We think the unusually light, receipts
due more to the great decline in prices,
resulting from breaking the corner, unsuc-
cessfully attempted by the “bull side” in
New York.
The sudden and enormous decline is not
clearly understood by producers as yet,
but it will be shortly. When, with
more settled market and prices based upon
the actual requirements of trade, a steady
movement and decidedly increased receipts
may be expected.
Some of our principal buyers were un
usually late in getting out this season,
and for a short time Fort Worth couldn’t
ofler the facilities tor placing any quantity
of cotton, however large, at prices equal
to or better than any market in North
Texas, which it has enjoyed and taken a
just pride in lor several seasons, and which
made it the largest cotton market in
North Texas last season, our receipts be-
ing admittedly largely in excess of Waco,
Dallas, and all the “Future Greats” north
of Houston.
We are pleased to inform all interested
in obtaining the largest prices for cotton
that Fort Worth now possesses those fa-
cilities to a "greater degree than any pre-
vious season.
Our principal buyer for several seasons
Past, Mr. G. T. Rotter, arrived about ten
days ago, and has commenced moving
cotton on his usual large scale. In addi-
tion to largely increased spinners business,
be represents the house of Dodge, Rotter
& Co., bankers and commission merchants
of New Y ork, in Texas, and will supervise
their large purchases for all markets of
the world, making his headquarters at
Fort Worth.
The demand for cotton at present in our
market is in excess of supply, and has
advanced prices above those of contiguous
markets. Those having cotton to sell
will do well to note the above facts, and
better still if they act on them.
SiiNiioml Judgment.
Considerable comment is being made
upon the street and among business men
growing out of the indictment ot Mr. L.
N. Brunswig, for the theft of $21 from
Messrs. Fisher & Co., of Brcckenridgc.
Public opinion should be suspended until
the trial is had.
The indictment contains the names of
Messrs. Rozcll, Morrow and Dashwood,
as the witnesses for the 6tate, as well as of
the Messrs. Fisher.
Fisher & Co. have been constantly do-
ing business with Mr. Brunswig, and are
still his patrons. The theft is charged to
have occurred August 10, 1S7S, at which
time Mr. Brunswig was in New York,
and from that time to the present, Fisher
& Co. h wc been regular customers of
Mr. Brunswig, and have ordered goods
under open orders, and remitted him
money as late as Sept. 29th—the indict-
ment being dated September 2Gth. Under
the circumstances it would seem that Fish-
er & Co. do not consider him dishonest.
Mr. B. has forwarded them a copy of
the indictment, and will furnish their letter
for publication when it is received. Messrs.
Fisher & Co. evidently have not been the
parties who secured the finding of the in-
dictment, and it they felt aggrieved they
would not still deal with Mr. Brunswig.
We again suggest a suspension ofjudg
meut until the trial is had and all the facts
elicited.
her foot.
FROM THE SPANISH.
Just as her coach was entering,
Did I see her foot one day—
Ah ! what feeling overcame me!
But what it was I cannot say.
Crazy-like the coach I followed ;
Where it stopped, I stopped again-
And once more the wondrous vision
Of that foot disturbed my brain.
Not one instant I forget it,
Or in peace, or joy, or strife—
J never saw a larger foot—
I never did in all my life.
NOKTII TEXAS NOTES.
Only five saloons in Cleburne ring the
bell punch.
The credit system has received its death-
blow at Denison by the introduction of
the bell punch,
Sherman regards the Denison papers as
prophets ol' evil, because they say Sher-
man is enjoying its last prosperous fall.
Denison News: There are eighteen
boarders at the hotel de quarantine. The
institution will be closed for the season on
the first of November.
John T. Simmons, a farmer of Ellis
county, perforated the body of one Sam
Byers with eighteen blue whistlers last
Wednesday, for an outrage perpetrated on
Miss Simmons.
Land certificates to the Waxahacliie
Tap are withheld on account of the state
engineer’s report not being sworn to, and
the iron not being laid on a part of the
road claimed to be completed.
Sherman Democrat: A hungry result
is likely to follow if the papers and the
people do not stop speaking of the Demo-
cratic “rally” on the 16th as a barbecue.
Everybody that attends must expect to
feed himself, for no other provision lias
been or will be made. Bring your own
basket, and expect no barbecue.
Sherman Courier: Without rain which
is now threatened, men, women, chilidren
and stock will sutler for water in various
portions of this county. One of the
oldest settlers informs us that a week’s
continuance of the drouth will be equal
to the longest dry spell he has ever known
in this county.
There is trouble in the tents of the
brethren at Sherman: The Courier of
last Tuesday, says: We have no space to
spare in our paper to notice the editorial
management of the Chronicle. Our no-
tice of it hereafter must be of a different
character, and outside the public prints.
No, the sensibilities of the decent people
of Sherman shall not be shocked by such
a reference as would be necessary to
reach a man of so low, groveling instincts.
E. MATHER & CO.,
Cotton Factors, Houston, Texas.
Has an agent in this city soliciting ship-
ments of cotton to Houston, and from
outside appearance be is making a big
move in this market, and securing his
share of consignments. Houston is the
best Texas market now to consign arid
ship cotton to, and ought to have more
representatives here than she has. E.
Mather & Co. is a good reliable concern,
and will get their share of cotton, as their
charges for handling is only $1.30 per bale
which covers insurance and everything ex-
cept freight, and that is 60 cents less than
to Galveston, with liberal advances on
shipments.

Inst rue< Ions ItcgnvdinjcSale of Public
Lands.
The following instructions from the
commissioner ol the general land office, re-
garding the sale of public school lands in
tliis state, was received yesterday by Judge
O. C. Cummins, from Gov. Roberts, and
will be ol general interest:
Common school lands, 2,s000,000 acres,
the minimum price being $1 per acre, pay-
able in ten installments. Each individual
may purchase not less than 160 nor more
than G40 acres of farming land, or three
sections of pasture.
The application of purchasers must bo
to the county survej'or.
University lands, 219,006 acres, settled
in Cook, Fannin, Grayson, Hunt, Collin,
Shackleford and Callahan counties, for
sale in tracts of eighty or one hundred
and sixty acres, minimum price $1.50 per
acre, with terms the same as the school
lands.
Asylum lands, 407,615 acres, situated in
Callahan, Comanche, Eastland, Jones,
Shackleford, Stephens, Taylor and Tom
Green counties, for sale in tracts of 160

ated in Dallas, Castro, Cockran, Lamb,
Bailey, Hockly, Hartley and Parmer
counties. These lands are divided into
tracts of one league each and are sold on
the same terms as the common school
lands.
Let the Good Work go oil.
A Democrat reporter interviewed Maj.
Jones yesterday on the subject of North-
ern immigration to this part of the state
this fall, and obtained a quantity of inter-
esting information. The major has re-
cently returned from the North where he
has been in the interest of Texas and to
promote immigration. He brought back
with him a number of Michigan’s monied
men, two of whom were so well pleased
with the country and its surroundings,
that they have purchased large tracts ot
land in this county and contemplate set-
tling thereon as soon as they can close
out their business North. The major says
that the question of seeking homes in this
genial clime is again becoming agitated
throughout the North, and thinks if a
proper effort be made by the authorities of
the state a tide could be turned to our
shores as strong as that of 1864 and ’65.
As it is now, the only inducements that
are held out are those afforded by private
enterprise and capital.
For Sale.
—One hundred and sixty acres of prai-
rie land nine miles south of Fort Worth,
123 acres under fence and in a good state
of cultivation, permanent water ; also
20 acres of timber four miles off'. For in-
formation call on Peter Smith.

Playing for liven.
Notwithstanding the conclusions of
the “ beer slingers ” at their meeting
the other night, the effervescing
beverage remains at the same price—a
nickel per glass ; and as far as our limited
observation goes, the aforesaid glasses are
the|same as used heretofore. There is some
talk now about raising the price of drinks
to fifteen cents straight, and do away with
the two for a quarter business that lias
predominated heretofore, but we predict
that this movement will pan out with
the same success as did the one on the
beer.
Boys, there isn’t any possible way to
play even; take the thing philosophically,
look at it in the“what ain’t be cured must
be endured,” light. Wait till the conven-
ing ot the next legislature, then come
down on that august body like a thousand
of brick, and have the obnoxious law
abolished.
Lost to Our Gity.
The following are the fines assessed and
turned over to the county by reason of the
act ol the last legislature Invalidating all
ordinances ot the city where, the penalty
was less than that affixed to the same act
or omission by the statute. In other
words, the following is the amount of
fines that would have gone into our city
treasury instead ot county had it not been
for that recent act ot the legislative body :
Gaming, four cases, at $10 each......$40 00
Assault and battery, one case......... 5 00
Two cases affrays........................... 2 00
Fourteen cases of drunk and down
at one dollar each........................ 14 00
Total......................................$61 Oft
It might be well to state in connection
with the above that all ordinances cover-
ing the above offence have all been
amended by the .city, and the penalties
herea.ter go into our city exchequer in-
stead of the county.

Mail Killed in Dallas.
From Mr. J. C. Son, editor of the Ralo
Rinto Star, who was in Dallas yesterday,
we learn that a man named J. C. Reed
was killed in that place Friday night. Ills
body was found on lloss avenue, near
Caruth street, with a severe wound in the
head, evidently made with a slung shot.
From memorandums in his papers, it is
thought he is fi^)in Bosque county, and
is a sheep raiser. The police have their
eyes on one or two suspicious characters,
and they hope to lind the authors of the
crime.
Nynodical.
The Trinity synod of the C. R. church
will meet at the Cumberland Presbyterian
church in this city, on the 9th day of the
present month, at 7 o’clock p. ni. About
130 delegates are expected, a large num-
ber of whom are yet unprovided for with
homes during their short stay in the city.
All persons who feel an interest *in
churches and the cause of Christianity,
who have the means and disposition to
aid in the entertainment of the ministers
and elders, who may attend this church
judicature, will please announce the same
between now and the 9tli day of the
month or on the first day of the meeting.

The Merchant’s Exchange.
Notwithstanding the Sunday and ob-
noxious bell punch laws’ tliis popular and
liberally patronized resort is still in the
ring and carries the same stock of fine
liquors it always has. The rain may come
and the winds may blow and beat upon
this house, but it falls not in flic estima-
tion of the public. We wager to say that
John Huffman, its clever proprietor, does
as large, if not a larger bar business than
any other beer hall in town. Why? Sim-
ply because Jonn understands his busi-
ness, does everything and spares nothing
to make it agreeable to bis customers, and
keeps nothing but the best ol everything.
If you ask for any kinds of liquors you
have the satisfaction ol knowing you get
the best brands. Should you ask for beer
it is always on tap and cold as Iceland’s
glassy mountains, and always fresh be-
cause the run ol custom John has, won’t
give the beer time to get stale, In con-
nection with his liquors, beer- and cigars,
he has one of the most inviting lunch
stands that can be found in the city—here
you can satisfy all the wants of the inner-
man and get everything that the market
affords at a-most reasonable price. Go to
the Merchant’s Excliangefor a cool glass
of beer, a line quality of whisky or an ex-
cellent lunch.

of these yards, become, at least, the equal of
any live stock market in the west.
A first-class hotel for the convenience of its pa-
trons, is attached to the yards.
