DAILY ENQUIRER - SUN: COLIJMRUP, GEORGIA WEDNESDAY MORNING, JULY 28, 1S8fi. 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. llr -Ncrileil Olio. 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.

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. “UNDERBUY AND UNDERSELL” GRAY’S WATCHWORD.
