A Letter- From Texas: Dfi-AR Monitor:— rfere nm I as most ot you readers know,, vvay <>nt in the “Wooly West - ” I enjoy read¬ . ing y < J'¥ letters from different- places in the county, moreso now than I ever did. I concluded that some of you all would like to hear from me, my experiece while oh my journey; and since my arrival here. 1 had a'very pleasant trip indeed* and made close connections both at. Montgomery and New Orleans. It was night when I arrived at the for¬ mer place and so I could see but very little of tho town. I whiled away most of my time at‘the .depot. It "Seemed, there, a| if. people never th ought of anything like sleep; every¬ thing was in such a hustle that you could hardly hear your own. ears- It was night while traveling through Mississppi, 8nd consequently I can¬ not give you any description of the country. I reached New Orleans at seven: thirty, Thursday, a. m. and had to wait two hours before they would take me- across the “Father of Wa- ters.” (Mississppi.) . While -waiting I spent most of my time watching tha river and the lev.. . boats the’, were on j t> j Jj a( j a chance to see a fisherman pull out one of its fish, but- it was not like the ones which we catch there in those creeks at home. I was tansferrei across the river nine; thirty and found a wai-iug t- 5 on;-: y ut ca :o I-.o. -n. ; h:ld whn ® travoIi ^ Loasianna and made use of it by viewing the conn try.

Everything is 'nest to me and it hikes what' lictla spai'e time I have watol)ir.g the sightfe, arid electric cars are something new to one who has been used to oxcarts an d broken down wagons. The bayou which extends up from Galveston adds lots to tho town. Most all of cotton is shipped that- way. Hous¬ ton will do very well until it rains and then ono can hardly walk if they got off the paved streets for every thing is mud and is as slipperry as ice. I have not seen it myself but. tb-vsa who have been here longer than I, say that in a real wet spell it takes four horses to pull an empty wagon. I want all tho fcpcrespondants of the Monitor to keep writing as I en¬ joy reading all of their letters, and if this does not find its way to the waste basket I may write again some day so the Monitor man will have something to fill up his paper. With best wishes to all the readers and the Monitor man, I am yours very truly, Charles W. Plowden, Houston, Texas. War of the Future. The Louisville Evening Post thinks future wars will be con¬ ducted on an outline somewhat after the following: “If wo are to war hereafter it must be a wa r so arranged that no one can regret it. “IPmust be a war in which no one can be hurt and all wounds or deaths being in violation of regn- latlorm r- f. : - investigated by a congressional committee. “There must be an abundance of food and it must be of tlio most varied character. “Water moat be /ipollinarie .water, exclusively furnished in ice bottles. “Eggs must be ‘laid on the table’ at every meal. “Men must not be permitted to, overtax themselves. Guard duty must be performed by some eccentric contrivance. Soldiers rnuet all be kept within a climate to which they have be. n accustomed. “All calnpaign'e must be arrang¬ ed after tho summer heat and be¬ fore the winter cold, and all rains must, be forbidden. “Transportation bj? sea must be arranged only in a calm/ as sea • Sickness unnerves a soldier as if does rnrivate ciG < r °- w won.., ...
