SAM HOUSTON.
RcmUlitcenreii of the Kiimniis Soldier mill Stale,
limit.
An old fogy (Mr. Harvey \V. Wattersof!.
father of Henry Wattersou), is contribut
ing reminiscences to the Louisville Cou
rier-Journal. He has this to say of Gen
Sam Houston:
Gen. Sam Houston and Gen, Thomas J.
Rusk were the first senators from Texas
They took their seats in March, 1846. Gen.
Houston had a remarkable career and was
a remarkable man. He was a native of
Virginia. His father died when he was ]„
years of age, and young Sam, with eight
other children,was left to the charge of his
mother. She subsequently moved to east
Tennessee, which was largely inhabited at
that time by the Cherokee Indians.
Sam did his share of the
work on the. little farm, ancl
at lust, against his will, was placed behind
the counter of a store. He soon escapee
from this position, and after a diligent
search for several weeks he was found
among the Cherokee Indians. He peremp
torily refused to return, and there remain
ed for several years, chasing the deer and
engaging in all the gay sports of the happy
Indian boys. In 1813 he enlisted as a pri
vate in the United States army. On the
protest of his friends against his becoming
a common soldier, he indignantly replied:
“What have your craven souls to suy
about the ranks? Go to with your stuff.
I would much sooner honor the ranks than
disgrace an appointment. You don’t know
me now, but you shall hear of me.” He
was soon promoted to the rank of sergeant
and afterward to that of ensign, in which
position he distinguished himself
at the battle of Horseshoe in 1814,
under Gen. Jackson. While leading his
men over the breast-works a barbed arrow
struck deep into his thigh. Having the
wound stanched, he returned to the fight
and raceived two rifle balls in the right
shoulder. His life was despuired of, and
for months he wavered between recovery
and death. When peace was declared he
was retained in the army as lieutenant, but
resigned in the course of a year or two and
went to Nashville to study law. He com
menced practice in 1818, and toward the
close of the same year was elected district
attorney. His military service led to his
appointment as adjutant-general of the
state, with the rank of colonel. In 1821
he was elected major-general, and in
1823 he was sent to congress
without opposition. In 1825 I saw him for
the first time. He was then canvassing for
re-eieetiou to congress, with mere nominal
opposition. I thought he was the finest-
looking man I had ever seen. He stood
more than six feet in his stockings, was as
straight as an arrow, and it gave me pleas
ure to gaze on his handsome, beaming face.
In 1827 he was elected governor of Ten
nessee. About eighteen mouths thereafter
he married a young lady belonging to one
of the first families of the state. The sepa
ration, which took place in about three
months, burst like a whirlwind upon his
brilliant prospects. I do not believe that
he ever told anybody the true cause of that
sad event. He said at the time, and even
.afterward, that he was to blame. He at
once resigned the office, of governor and
left the state. He found an asylum among
his old friends, the Cherokee Indians, with
whom he remained three years. In the
early part of 1833 he visited Texas. At
Nacogdoches he was earnestly pressed to
allow his name to be put forward as a can
didate for delegate to the constitutional
convention, to be held at Austin on the 1st
of the following April. He assented, and
was unanimously elected. The conven
tion formed a state constitution and drew
up a memorial to the supreme government
of Mexico, setting forth the reason why
Texas should be recognized as one of
fhe states of the Mexican confeder
acy. The bearer of the memorial
to the City of Mexico, Stephen P. Austin,
was immured by Santa Anna in a
dungeon for several months. On bis libe
ration he returned t-o Texas, and found
much excitemant among the people. This
was the beginning of the end. The end
was the battle of San Jacinto, in which
Houston and the brave men under bis
command utterly destroyed Santa Anna’s
army and captured him. He was the first
president of the republic. At the end of
hiB term of office, as the same person could
not constitutionally be elected twice in
succession, he became a member of the
Texas congress. In 1841, however, he was
again elected to the presidential chair.
During the whole time that he held that
office it was his favorite policy to effect the
annexation of Texas to the United States,
but be retired from office before he saw
the consummation of his wishes.
He served in the senate of the United
States from 1846 to 1859. He was exceed
ingly bright and entertaining in the social
circle. Politically he was not popular
with the hotspurs of the south, because
their fields lay in one direction and his in
another. Time and events proved that he
was right and these men wrong. He
learned his union lessons from Gen. Jack-
sou, whose fast friend he was, and adhered
to them throughout his life. In 1869 he
was elected governor of Texas. Two years
later the secession storm came, but he bent
not before it. For this reasou he was de
posed by the convention which passed the
ordinance of secession. He died at Hunts
ville, July 25, 1863, in the "1st year of his
age.
Why .Hen Don’t Marry.
New Orleans States: I say it boldly and
without fear of contradiction, there is not
a man living who is at all times proof
against feminine fascinations, who has not
at some period in his life’s history in
dulged in the hope of realizing his dreams
of domestic happiness in which the face of
some real or ideal woman shone forth as
the guiding star to brighten his life. No
man ever indulges in dreams of domestic
happiness outside of his ideal home. The
world is his at all times, in which to roam
at his own sweet will. His experience
teaches him that in all the world can offer
there is nothing so sweet as the love which
lives in the home, gives rest to the soul and
that peace of mind which the world
cannot give; his innermost soul
craves for it, so satisfying is it in its tender
ness. True love is the very main stay of
happiness, and no outward ruin “can
wreck the citadel where the immortal
lives.” Is it the fear of the failure to real
ize such happiness as this that keeps these
dreamers from seeking it in marriage ?
The most inveterate club man, tiie^ bit
terest scott’er of “love in a cottage, are
those men who failed, either from lack of
confidence in their own powers of persua
sion or want of means in their youth, to
win the one particular woman they wor
shipped as their ideal. Disappointment m
love is one of the main causes oi there
being so many bachelors in the world.
There are another class of men who very
cautiously estimate the expenses oi mar
ried life, and come to the conclusion they
‘‘would be a fool to marry a girl ii they
could not support her in the style in which
she had been accustomed,” and, with a
wise shake of the head, determine to let
well enough alone. Often men do not
marry because they are too busy; they be
come enamored of their work; every effort
of theiy existence tends to the successful
accomplishment of a certain purpose, and
marriage does not seem to them essential
to that result. . .
Many men shun female society as they
Would some death-dealing plant, from the
very consciousness of their own helpless
ness in avoiding being entrapped into se
rious entanglements, Believing that where
e woman wills it she can do anything,
while man is a feeble child of destiny who
®6n ill afford to war against so fair a foe.
Other men, from a worldly point of view,
have enough money to support one, but
not enough for two; they value their on n
comfort and position too much to imperil
*“ by allowing any “sentimental nonsense
in love affairs” to disturb their mathemati
cal calculations on the subject.
There are plenty of men in the world,
and women cannot complain they do nit
see them for the tendency of the age is “to
lei el all barriers between the sexes.” Girls
are allowed to indulge in all sports that
were usually considered invented far tin
sole pleasure of the lords of creation. Tin v
row, they skate, they play lawn tennis',
they—shall I say It—yes, they smoke ; it s
considered quite chic to indulge in ti e
pleasure of the weed in the shape of ami!
cigarette. Perhaps it is these mannish a -
complishinents that make men regard tin
matrimonial state with disfavor, not pa 1 '
ticularly relishing the idea of a wife bei: g
a match for them in every sense of t! e
word, even to the extent other muscul: r
development. .
SAM JONES.
Boosting till' Temperance I'linse in Mi-
sour!.
The day was such as would please those
most interested in the temperance camp-
meeting. says a Clinton, Mo., special to the
St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The early
trains came in loaded down with visitors
to hear the great temperance orators
apeak. At 10:30 o'clock the special train
over the Gulf road arrived with 300 aboard.
Fully 10,000 people thronged the streets of
the city, and in the forenoon listened to
Mrs. C. H. St. John, and in the afternoon
listened to Rev. Sam Jones. Mrs. St. John
reflected honor on herself and glory to her
cause, charming all her hearers. Rev.
Sam Jones, in his inimitable manner, held
his audience spellbound, and poured in the
hotshot to the liquor men’s camp with his
wit, humor, sarcasm and pathos. Hardly
a person but what was pleased with a part,
of his lecture, and hardly any but felt the
force of his cutting rebukes oil loose living
and intemperance. He preached to-night
at the camp to several thousand hearers.

The Atlanta Journal tells the following
spicy story of a scene in DelCalk superior
court:
Last week an interesting divorce suit was
tried in DeKalb superior court. A young
man having sued his wife for divorce was
placed on the stand to testify.
Lawyer—What are your grounds Mr.
Smithson?
Smithson—Cruelty. Two weeks after
we were married she threw a billet of
wood at me, struck me on the knee and
cut a gash an inch and a quarter long.
Lawyer—What else?
Smithson—She threatened to pour hot
lead in my ears while 1 was'asleep.
Lawyer—Anything else?
Smithson (unexcitedly)—When I waked
up one morning she had a pistol pointed at
my head, and said if I didn’t june around
quite lively she would blow my brains
right out of my head., This sorter scared
me.
Lawyer—Did she do anything else?
Smithson (excitedly ana earnestly)—Yes,
sir. When I was courting her she told me
she was only eighteen years old, and I
have the best reasons for knowing now
that she was over twenty-five years of age
at that time. [Sensation in court.]

GRAND FINALE SATURDAY NIGHT.
All high priced Dry Goods Merchants will have a camp-fire meeting in Girard to devise means,
if possible, to improve* on baits and fly-traps, so as to stop the rush of customers to the Trade Palace.
THE PACTS LAID DOWN BY GRAY FOR THE PUBLIC EYE.
GRAY, the great, atomizer and pulverizer of high prices and credit system and fly-traps, says
the money you will save in buying from him will sweeten many an hour when doubt and anxiety
exist about your business affairs. The cry is, how is Gray always so crowded that it is sometimes
impossible to get waited on V Well, the secret is, we believe in quick sales and small profits.
Gray's Ship, which gave warning some two weeks ago, as a.med with the keenest of weapons,
sees now on the horizon a phantom ship in the distance, loaded with old charge books and ledgers,
and fly-traps and long-winded prices, tneir sails dotted with rumpled and misused samples of Dry
Goods from other stores; the crew composed of old time fogy merchants, known as so-called competi
tors ; their uuiforms made of old style shop-worn black 23c . ashmere. The officers’ uniforms differed
somewhat, having a complete suit lined with 10c gloves. Judging from the large white spots, we
thought the craft a man-of-war. But Gray, with his keenest eye, saw that the phantom ship was
patched all over with old credit bills, the great cancer credit having eaten all through in many
numbed places. From the top sky foresail could be seen a black flag made out of faded black plaid
mulls, marked “Credit.’' We give warning. Our flag is marked ‘Spot. Cash.” If the phantom
ship does not wish to endanger their cargo, they had better heave to, as we will point our needle
gnus loaded with grape and canister flying in all directions. Many will go down in the hurricane of
sleet, shot and shell. Others will be fatally crippled. Rut all wifi be sobered and read aright the
sterling axioms of true mercantile philosophy.
The only trouble with the Trade Palace, we are so crowded during the day we cannot get all the
bundles out, so we have to send a great number at night.

This Press is so simple in construction and so well illustrated by the cut, that
scarcely a word is needed by way of explanation. Being simply an Iron Screw and
Nut substituted for wood, the wood work of its construction, and the manner of op
erating it, are substantially i n: same as in the old style of wooden plantation screw,
but the timbers required are not so heavy or long. Wo sell many of tnese Screws and
they invariably give satisfaction.
