BELLVILLE, TEXAS:
/ ' FRIDAY, MARCH 1st, 1867.
The following periling arfl authorized
f a«eots for "The Country tnan,'' anil will
receive subscriptions and advertising, and
receipt for moneys due this office:
J. N. Daniel, Houston.
Wharton & Sandcliff, 115 Common St.,
N«* Orleaua.
WANTED.,—A practical printer to be-
«•orne a partner in the publication or the
Countryman. Little, or no immediate capi-
tal required. A person who can come well
recommended for honesty, sobriety nrnd
energy, and who "wishes to make his homo
here, can have a profitable and permanent
situation. No letters will be answered
Application in person must be made. „
printer having some editorial experience
preferred. ' tf.
. Pbbaciiinu.—Rov. Mr. Konnon
-will preach at this place next Sunday,
at 11 o'clock a. M.
O
Push Ahead.—Push ahead the
petitions for a mail route from Ilemp-
stead via Bell trille and Industry to
Alleyton. A little energ/junt now
will, we believe, secure this mni
route. It is not proposed to interfere
with auy existing route, and there-
fore all the people of Austin county,
whether living directly on tho pro
posed route or not, are directly in
terested in the procurement of this.—
The people of Buckhorn and Nolson-
■ville have no post offices, but neet
them very much for the accommoda-
tion of the people. Bellville needs
direct commnnicatisn with all parts
.«ftlio county, and if this lino is put
in operation it will have it. Ifemp
stead "Local" says the Mail Agent of
this State is in favor of it. So we
(jay, push ahead, and no doubt, in.our
mind, it will bo secured. WhCTher
wo be aStato or territory, this mail
route is to us equally important.—
'Congress meets tho 4th of tins month,
and these petition^ should bo sent to
some member of that body, early in
the month, who will tako an interest
in procuring the passage of a bill es-
tablishing the route. Tho Postmas-
ter General will attend to the balance.
't'/ti Unincr*itij.-
liho administra [
tor* of t!i" I nivon ity have not yet j
«.c-Httd that iutítiiutiou, und tevery
ittli- town iu the State ir* proving
itself n« the motst suitable place for the
ocntiou. We don't expect tho loca-
tion at Bellville, and do not therefore
put the place in nomination; but, we
are willing to bet a churn full of but-
termilk, and drink our share of it, that
if the administrators will visit our
town for tho purpose, they will readily
admit that Bellville possesses advant-
ages superior to any othcr'town in the
Sute. A University that is to he
located for all tiny) to come, bhould not
have a bad location, merely because
some wealthy place offers a premium
of a few thousand dolíais for it.
The Mail—•Fire.—By the fire
which occurred at Brenham on the
night of the 21st, no doubt that a large
amount of mail matter fqr this couuty
was consumed. Tho accumulations
I %
of four preceding days were in the
office at the timo of the fire. We
have no further particulars of the ca
lamity than what appears in the
"iiempstflad Locals." We learn,
however, thai five storeB were con
8umcd, the Post Office, and the Ma-
sonic Lodge and some other business
houses. The Inquirer from which
we expected to learn tho particulars
faifbd us on Monday. We under-
stand that tho report that the fire
originated in the Masonic Lodge is
denied. At any rate it is a sad ca-
lamity, and wo sympathize with those
who have been bo soon revisited by
the devouring element.
A Candidate.—V>y referonco to
the proper placo, it will bo seen that
• J. C. McDado is a candidato for As-
sessor and Collector, at tho election!
March 16th. If elected, wo doubt
not that Mr. MeDado will mako an
oxcellent officer.
' Who will be tho next candidato ?
It is not just to tho printers that there
should be only ouo candidato. "J'liore
is also the office of Coroner to be filled
nt tho same timo, a Justica of the
Peace in Bel{4ille Beat, and perhaps
other beat offices iii other parts of
the county., Altogether we may
have a lively election this time. We
like to soe plenty of candidates ; it
always makes printers "smile." -No
matter how many candidates there
are, wo always "hold 'era level and
• lot 'urn run."
Tartner Wanted.—Will our ox-
' r
changes please call attention to our
notice of "Wanted," at tho editorial
head? Wo will return thu favor
when requested.
The Territory,—Wo learn that tho
territorial bill has passed both houses
of Congress and is in the hands of the
President awaiting his veto. We
have not seen the bill, but are inform-
<od that it just wipes out all the present
officers of tho late insurrectionary
States ; allows negroes to voto ; re-
quires an election to be held iu June
for delegates to a convention; an
election in October to ratify or reject
tho proposed Constitution of the
States; allows negroes to bo elected
to Said, convention, ami so on, ad
infinitum. Well, wo can't tell what
is in store for us, and nobody seems
to care much in these parts, provided
the people aro let alone and permitted
to pursue their customary avocations.
The President will, without doubt,
veto the measure ; whether tliore is
sufficient majority iu both houses to
carry it by a two-thirds voto over Hie
veto, we aro not informed, but pre-
sume there is.
nr The Navasota Times com-
plains that its "little city" has been
overlooked by the representative of
Brazos couuty, and therefore the «'lit-
tle! city" is not reported in the Texas
Almanac. Never miud, brother
Jones, wo «re coming to Navasota
on a visit some day, alul then we'll
uotice your "littl%city" in tho Coun-
tryman, which will bo worth as much,
prti-ad ven-<Vrr, as a piuco in tne
Texas Almanac, however valuable
a notidfc in that publication may he.
We have been overlooked and slight-
id more thau j our "littli city." and
We "ain't dead yet."
The Cotton Factory.—During tlip
past week* Mr. Wm. Ahrenbeck was
in town and presented us a sample of
cottoq thread spun at tho Concordia
Mills at Hempstead. Tho ladies say
that this thread is beautiful and fine.
This wo believe is No. 11. Thread
of d i Iteren t numbers, and of course a
different size, is mado at these mills.
Many of our citizens acknowledge
presents of thread by Mr. A., and all
speak of its quality in tho highest
terms of praise. Wo hopo to bwable
to pay tho Mills a visit before long,
and by personal inspection seo tho
wonders of tho machiuory. All wish
tho proprietors of the Concordia Mills
great success in tho enterprise,
The Elcciion.-rr-It will bo S9en by
looking in the proper pface, that the
Couuty Judgy has ordered on election
for Assessor and Collector to take
place ou tha lGth day of March next.
Let the candidatos "trot'^hcioselvce
out for tho office. Wo aro prepared
to announce them if they will "pony
up tho spondulics 1" For announce-
ment and printing a sufficient number
of tickets, ton dollars, specie.
13P Jamos W. Colledgo is about
to publish a Pocket-Book Directory
of tho principal towns and cities and
business men, railroads, stago lines,
etc., of Texas. It will no doubt bo a
useful and handy book. It is to bo
regretted that tho business men of
Bellville have neglected to havo our
place noted prominently in the book.
Corn.—We hopo our planters will
not neglect to plant a good amount of
corn. It is always salable at a fair
price, and tbero is no danger ofhav-
iug too largo a crop, as tho indications
are that we will have a largo immi-
gration.
The Court.—Tho next term of tho
County Court for tho trial of civil aud
criminal causes will be held on the
first Monday in April next.. Persons
having complaints to mako for viola-
tions of tho law should consult the
County Attorney. There are sever-
al cases, wo learn, already on the
docket for trial.
IliP E. W. Luhu is in receipt of a
splendid assortment • of go^s of all
kinds suited to this market. Luhn
advertises liberally, and can therefore
afford to sell cheap. Customers say
that tho cheapest Btores aro those
whoso -proprietors advertise most

Probato Court has been in
session this week aud a considerable
number of people, both malo aud
¿órnale, have been in attendance.
The village of Gatli, near Bellville,
is improving,—so says tho editor who
Resides there. Clad to hear it. Let
it improve.
Congressional. •
____ ■ j
senate
Washington, Feb. 20.—The Sen-
ate was uugaged on tho District Bill
uutil tho message from tho Uousq,
announcing tho passage of Sherman's
bill, with amendments.
Williams moved that the Senate
concur. Several Senators objected
to thu disfranchising clause insetted
by tho House, but would voto to con-
cur, notwithstanding.
Johnson said, if he had his wish,
be would immediately receive the
Southern representatives, but would
yield to the majority. Ho would vote
for tho bill, because ho saw in it a
movo to rescuo tho country from the
perils now threatening it, Recess.
ho«fe.
Sherman's bill came up. W ilson's
amendment was adopted by a vote of
G9 to 40. It provides that persons
excluded from office by the proposed
constitutional amendment, bo ex-
cluded from voting for members, or
being members of a Convention to
form State Constitutions.
Shellabarger offered an amendment
declaring that until tho rebellious
States are admitted to representation,
any civil government shall be deemed
provisional, subject to the authority
of the United States, to be abolished,
modified, or superceded at any time,
and all elections under tho civil gov-
ernment to be conducted by persons
described in the fifth soction, and no
person shall be qualified to hold office
under the provisional government
who is ineligible under tho provisions
of tho third section of the constitu-
tional amendment of next session.
Adopted—yeas, 98, nayB, 70.
Resolution to concur with amend
ments then passed, 125 to 40. Haw-
kins, of Tennessee, and Ilubbell, of
Ohio, the ¡only Republicans voting
nay,
• Surratfc.
On landing, the marshal said : "Is
your name John H. Surratt V
Ho replied : "It is, sir."
• Tho marshal then served tho war-
rant and took possession of tho
prisoner.
His head was erect nncHiis air feaf-
less. Ho was handsomely dressed
iu a grey zouave suit, white leggings,
fez cap, light moustache, long goatee,
and handcuffed. The case and custo-
dy is entiscly under the civil authori-
ties.
Ex-Gov. Thos. II. Ford, of Ohio,
,?nd Col. S. Hincólo will defend Sur-
ratf.
The President and the Radicals.—
Tho Washington correspondent of the
Richmond Dispatch wrote on the 5th
ult., as follows: i
As I now write ibero is a private
correspondence (I lmre my informa-
tion from a confidential friend of
President Johnson) going ou between
tho President and a committee of the
Radical members of Congress, having
in view a settlement or compromise
of tho difficulties now existing be-
tween the two branches of tho Gov-
ernment. Tho Radicals a^reo to
% « °
yield to tho President's measures and
views upon reconstruction, and all
tho great political questions now
agitating tho country from tho St.
Lawrence to the Gulf of Mexico, if he
will yield to them ono point, And that
is to vest iu them tho appointing power
or sole control of tho offices. They
mako tho nominations to tho office.?,
tho President to mako appointment
of them and send them to tho Senate
for confirmation. What the confer-
ence will nil amount to, I am not yet
authorized torsny, but it looks liko a
very obvious way to bring to a close
and terminate the existing feud be-
tween tho Executive and Legislative
branches of tho Government.
Tho railway butweeu Calcutta and
Bombay is about one thousand miles
long, and is traversed by trains in
about four days.

sented tho proprietors of tho Tele-
