BT T. O. PATRICK^
Hempstp.d, May 27.
On Monday last we took Another
trip to Houston, which we found
steadily growing, and likely to con-
tinue to; hot there was a general
complaint of dull times. However,
people ibsstent, and by callingnt the
Metropolitan Hotel you can find
«very article the market affords, and
with Mr. C. Bremond in the office,
ym may be sure of the best of fare.
Mr. is an old hotel keepjjr,
and knows who to associate with to
keep vp the interest of the house.
We had hardly time fo look around
M we were informed that the cars
verepunctual to the minute; so a* two
«'dock we were at the Depot, and at
fftffn minutes past two precisely,
the whistle sounded nnd we were off,
and in two hours and a half we were
Ifffit in our quiet little town of Hemp-
stead. Quite a change in time, as
bat a short time ago it took five
koanu The road is in betttea condi-
tion than it has been for years.
Mr. Burton, the Superintendent, has
squad* of men scattered along the
whole line of the road, and he him-
self is everywheie present: first at
Bienbam, then at Chappell Hill, and
along the W. 0. B. R; then on the
Central, determined to keep every-
thing right. He says if anything is
worth doing at all, it is worth doing
welL The Washington County R.R.
is T" k'"g more regular trips than
ever before, and, on making inquiry
as to the cause, we were told that
the track was kept clear and that the
engine did not have to stop for the
managers to eat breakfast while they
ought to be under way. Mr. Duffitf,
the conductor of the W. C. R. R, is
a driving business kind of a man
and has always made his trips in time
to —ha the connexion with the
Central ears. Energy and prompt-
ness are about the best recommenda-
tions a man' can have. With Mr.
Pnffin on the W.C. R. R., Mr. Terrel
on the Central as conductor, and Mr.
Burton as superintendent, we think
the roads are doing a more regular
business than heretofore.
Groceries.—Our old friend O'Riley
|s doing a u smashing " business in
the new brick building nest to the
Old Capitol. You can get anything
from a " nip " of the best whisky to
a cask of choicest bacon or hams.
He keeps a general assortment of
groceries and sells them cheap.
Pie#.— On Thursday, the 15th
jn«t , Mr. Jeremiah Clond departed
thi> life* He had been in poor health
lor a long time, having contracted
din* in tb6 Louisiana swamps,
■while in Waller's battalion, of whieh
he was a member. He was followed
to his last resting place by the
Masonic fraternity.
Change.- —It wilLbe seen by refer-
ring to the advertisement of Robb &
Gray, that this enterprising firm are
carrying on the foundry at this place.
They are well supplied with the best
mechanics in the State, and are pre-
pared to do any kind of brass and
iron work on the shortest notice. Mr.
Robb has b&en so long connected
with Mr. MeGowan, of Houston, that
he needs very ; Utile other reeom-
mendadon. He is the mau that got
oat the one hundred horse power
engine at McGowan's foundry, some
ago.

The
Just Our Sentiment*.—Dr.Fiank-
Ipn remarks that a man as often gets
two dollars for the one he spends io
forming his mind, as he does for a
dollar he lays out in any other way.
A man eats a pound of sugar and it
is gone and the pleasure he has en-
joyed is ended, but the information
he gets from a newspaper is treasured
up to be enjoyed anew, and to be used
whenever occasion or inclination ealls
for it. A newspaper is not the wis-
dom of one man or two men, it is the
-wisdom of the age, and of past ages
too. A family without a newspaper
is always a year behind the times in
general information ; besides they
can never think much nor find much
to think about. And there are the
little onea growing up without any
taste for reading. Who, then, would
he without a newspaper, and who
would read one legulariy without
