TEXAS PAPERS—No. o.
THE "PEOPLE
of Texas are verypOorly described by simply
giving their nationality, or the States from
which they have emigrated, which , is where
I ended in No. 5. For, ordinarily, the emigrat
ing portions of a cammunit y are not a fair re
presentation of its great body; being usually
either above or below it. They are those with
*higher aspirations, more ambition, and supe
rior education ; who ' becoming discontented
'with the confinement and established formal
isms of Old sOcicties, snap their bonds, and
emigrate to nen: localities, with the hope of
moulding a new society nearer into an image
of their own. Or else, a restless, venturesome,
speculating class, for which old communities
have but small fields, and which naturally
turns to the openings of a new country for
broader avenues of adventure. Or, when
neither of these, then they are from the low
est and most ignorant classes, who in all old
countries are gradually trampled out from
among their betters, and driven to SAek more
independent and substantial livelihood, where
lands are cheap, and little homes can be
owned, even by the poor.
So a new Country never presents the same
moral aspect as the Om from wilich its settlers
came. An its upper strata is full of keen,
nervous, speculating, outreaching elements,
that render its society one full of activity,
anxiety, adventure, and temptation ; that fifty
years' time very largely modifies by raising
up a middle class of solid, sober, and plodding
men, such as anew country seldom has.
Such is exactly the case with Texas. It is
made up very largely Of the restless classes I
have mentioned, to which have been added
two other modifying elements not always
found elsewhere.
" TIT& STATIPING GROUND." ,
In its early youth, Texas was the "stamping
-ground" and "house Of refuge" for all the
notorious offenders and culprits of the corm:-
try. 'Horsethioves, bigamists, forgers, mar•
derers, and escaped prisoners, all fled thither,
and laying bold upon the horns of r its
tiatar—thatlof a vicious public Sentiment—were
The time was, and not many years back,
when it was not considered an insult to ask a
Stranger where he had run away from, or what
Were his crimes in the States. These men; for:
many years made Texan society a pandemo
nium; and it took a man of some nerve to
make his home among them. They respected
a high temper, cool courage, a quick eye, and
a ready weapon, wherever they found them
Combined. And to 'men of that stamp they
were placable and conciliatory. This class
ruled the State for years; but though their
rule, with the most of themselves, has pasded
. .
away, society still feels the taint they left
behind them ; as the ready appeal to the
revolver and knife, upon all occasions of
dispute or ill will, still abundantly 'tes
tifies. It is a strange and undesirable state
of society, when no man can ever rely upon
his character as a defence against" calumny,
end where he can never safely look down with
silent disdain upon one who insults him. But
such has ever been the case there. Public
opinion' is so far vitiated that no man can
safely permit himself to he abused or traduced
in silence. The very best classes turn from
him, or see him personally and bodily abused
without a -word of interference. But one once
having established the reputation of having
the ability to take care of himself, and always
being perfectly ready and willing to do so, has
earned the respect of all classes, and, if he
minds his own business, is safe wherever he is
known. After the - admission of Texas into the
Union, the " Stamping ground" was measura.
bly broken up, and a very different and great
ly improved class of settlers have flocked into
it among which is the other element spoken
of. This is
TEEE GERMAN ELEMENT;
and though scattered more or less over the
State, and mixed up with others somewhat, it
is most largely found in the West. There are
a few small German settlements in other por
tions of the State ; but not till after crossing
the Colorado, going west, are their large towns
foimd. One of the pleasantest and most pros
perons of the inland towns of Texas is New
Braunfels, wholly German, lying upon the
Gaudalupe River, at the crossing of the Austin
and San Antonio road. I have no means of
telling the number of its inhabitants, but I
Should say, some two or three thousand. It is
a neat, clean little town, looking neither MIMI
nor New England, but a kind of delightful
cross between the two. Its low, white houses,
embowered in gardens of trees, and vines, and
flowers, have a most inviting air about them,
and snake a traveller loth to leave a place that
seems so social, cool, and comfortable. It is
full of mechanics of various trades, who do
their work better, and sell it cheaper, than at
any other town in the State. Its streets, and
yards, and gardens, and shops, and schools are
models in their way ; and at the latter, which
are public, are employed both German and
English teachers.
Though situated in the most delightful See
tion of the State, upon the banks of a sweet
-stream, surrounded by a most beautifullyron
ing country of great fertility, and in an atmos.,
phere so pure that game hangs from the piazza
posts upon the Shady side of the houses for
days, and is still sweet and good ; and though
upon one side is an interminable cattle-range,
and upon the other thebest sheep-walks of the
State, covering equal territory, still New
Braunfels and the other Germansettlements
in that region were Unwisely selected, wi the
German emigration would have been largely
increased had their first selection of location
been more fortunately made: It should have
been northeast of the Colorado. The Germans
are a fanning and mechanical people, rather
than stock-growers. They are clannish, and
- inclined to set down in a row. They should
have chosen a part of the State where Crops
are certain, and rains fall in plenty to make
them. Then their farmers would have been
doubly prosperous, because of their diligence
and skill, (for they are diligent and good cul
tivators, getting full and double crops where
BOutlierners get but one, and that shrivelled
and poor,) and their little towns of shopkeep
ers and mechanics would have been amply
supported by the growing country around
them.
But their present location, though lacking
but a Single thing to make it the paradise of
the State, in that single lack lacks all (as a
farming country.) It is in a country of fro-
quent drought, and where crops are often de
pendent upon irrigation. Still, despite all
drawbacks, these industrious people have
compelled their lands to yield them a living,
have been moderately prosperous, and are
among the best settlers of the State. They
are sober, industrious, honest, and loyal.
Their farms are better tilled, their towns bet
ter kept, their streets cleaner, and their gro
ceries safer than any others in the State.
While their slipshod neighbors are living on
born and bacon, with neither fruits nor fowls;
these busy and sensible Germans, by dint of
watemilpes and busy hoes, are filling, their
gardens with peas, cucumbers, and cabbages,
with apples, peaches, and plums, and bringing
to their tables eggs and spring chickens ' as
abundantly as though Nature had blest their
land with showers as well as sunshine.
It was here—within five miles of New Braun-
fell, sixty miles from Austin, thirty from San
Antonio, a hundred and sixty from the Gulf,
and upon the borders of the great prairies
upon one side, and the oak openings upon the
other, in the midst of exhaustless range, both
summer and winter, where the sweet tufted
and curly mezquit grows—Kendal, whilom of
the Piet/lame, - first began his profitable "ranch
ing," and drove the stakes of his famous sheep
pens. And here, it was, and years ago, Gnu,.
after a hundred and fifty miles saddle-ride to
have an hour with a man I knew nothim4 of
and never saw, over a game dinner and its

Sheep raising, and from the glowing descrip
tions of my witty and enchanting host, aided
by the sight of his "sequestered cabinet of
family comforts," I lost my heart among the
bills and fell in love with l
S_Mpherding.
Pardon me a word of Kendal. That stray
hoar at his table has always lived green in my
heart, and, were it possible, I would frame it
for preservation and leave It an heirloom in
the family.
Kendal is a royal fellow, and (with a single
error) noble as royal. Full of 01(1 and New-
World lore—of books and travel, of theory and
experience, of fact and fancy-1 found him a

editor and a successful author, he had risen to

and front a home in Paris to a Stone cottage in
a Dutch settlement among the Post-oaki;. And

It was a rare househould indeed, for such a
place. The piano was in tune, and made itself

R., who was a French lady of culture and re
finement, and I heard the little ones talking
to their father in three languages, English,
German, and French, as readily as though na

Kendal moved thirty miles up the country,
.bere the unappreciative redskins killed his
shepherds and scattered his sheep, and, for
aught I know, he has been hunting them up
ever since. If so, it is a better business than
writing rebellion papers, which he so far far
got himself as to indulge in to alimited ex

ATHLETICS VS. REREKAS, OF NEWARK -THE
FoRMTR VICTORIOUS.
The gromids of the Athletic Base-Ball Club,
at Fifteenth street and Colinnhia avenue,
v . -esented yesterday afternoon a scene here
tofore rarely observed in Philadelphia.
Front five to eight thousand persons, one
third of whom were ladies, bad assembled
there to witness a match, between the Eureka
Club, of Newark, New Jersey, and the Ath
letics, the champions of this city. For some
time past much interest has been taken in this
match, as the Eureka, which is probably the
best base-ban club in New Jersey, and one of
the best in the United States, were confident
that they would return to their homes the
victors.
The grounds of the Athletic Club are large,
and enelosed by a neat whitewashed fence.
Inside lift small house for the use Of the Mem
bers, and to the east of this is a large pavilion
for the accommodation of ladies and visitors.
This, yesterday, was crowded with a large
galaxy of the fair sex, and, if we may Judge by
the applause they frequently gave Tent to, the
game was as interesting to them as to the
sterner portion of humanity present.
All the space not outhe field proper was also
occupied by men and boys, while the fences
were lined by the same class.
The Eurekas had arrived from Newark yes
terday morning, and were taken charge of by
the Athletics. On their entrance to the ground
they were received in a flattering manner by
the spectators. They are a fine-looking body
of young gentlemen, and their playing, cape
chilly in the ninth innings, showed that they
were no mean opponents of the champions,
The day was very fine; but the sun, beaming
into the eyes of some of the players, was, in a
few instances, very annoying to them.
At fifteen minutes past three o'clock the
game commenced, the Eurelras having the
limit innings, but they ware soon put out by
the Athletics before they had made a_single
run. The latter then went to the bat, and
made a run of five. They played very well,
indeed; and it soon became evident that the
Eurekas ran a poor chance of being the vic
tors.
On the eighth inillaga the latter went to the
bat with a score of twelve against their oppo
nents, thirty-three. This large difference they
endeavored to make up, but after scoring
three they had to give way to the Athletics,
who Made B score of frre. The Eurekas 2tOW
took the hat, and by some very fine playing
made a score of thirteen before they were
caught' out by their opponents; This was
partly due to two miscatches of the bases of
the Athletic;, and also to the fact that the
Eurekas had become more torah iar with the
fine pitching of 'Mcßride. The Athletics next
took the bat, but -they were soon put out by
their opponents before they had added to the
preNgous score.
Mee:leery, who bad taken the place of Hay
hurst, made the largest run on the Athletic
side, haying succeeded in scoring seven.
All tile members of both °Fobs exerted them
selves to their utmost, and as numerous fine
hits were made, the spectators showed their
gratilication by applause. The following was
the score

- SAINT LAWRENCE.—TO-day is the anni-
Vcrsary of this Saint, who, next to the Apos
tles themselves, is venerated as One Of tile
greatest Saints of the Catholic Church. Few
martyrs of which we read have borne such un
heard of sufferings, and whose names are so
famous, as that of him who is called the glo
rious St. Lawrence. While yet young, he was,
in A. D.:257, appointed by St. Xystus one of the
seven deacons who served in the Roman
Church, and is called by several fathers "the
Pope's archdeacon." In the same year, :the
Emperor Valerian publishedihis bloody edicts
against the Church, and commenced by order
ing all bishops, priests, and deacons to be put
to death, and in the following year the Pope
(St. Xystus, as above named) was apprehend
ed and put to death. As he was led to execu
tion, his deacon (Lawrence) followed, crying
out, "Whither art thou going, oh! holy
priest, without thy deacon? Where are
yOll going, father, without your soul" and
other expressions of grief. The Pope, moved
by his lamentations, said, "I do not leave you,
my son; but a greater trial and a more glori- '
oils victory are reserved for you. You shall
follow me in three days." He added a charge
to distribute the treasures of the Church
among the poor, and Lawrence, being full of
joy that he was to go so soon, did so, and dis
tributed the immense riches of the Church
among the.poor. The Prefect of Rome, hear
ing of these great riches, sent for St. Law- .
rence, and asked for such money and treasure
as the Church had for the use of the Emperor
and the maintenance of his forces. St. Law
rence replied that the Church was rich, and
asked for three days to make an inventory.
This the Prefect granted, and, at the end of
the time mentioned, Lawrence, who had gone
all Over the city for the purpose, brought the
decrepid, blind, lame, maimed, widows, Or
phans and virgins before him, Stating that
They were the Church's riches. The Prefect,
was enraged, and cried out, "Do you thus'
mock me 1 I know you desire to die, but it
Shall be by inches." Lawrence was then
stript naked, and bound with chains on
a large gridiron, which was Set Oyer a
slow lire, and his 'flesh was thus broiled by lit
tle and little, piercing even to his bowels. It
is related that after broiling awhile on one
side he said to the Judge, "Let my body now
be turned." This was done, and after a time
lie said: "It is dressed enough, you may eat."
The Prefect insulted him, but he continued in
earnest prayer for the conversion of Rome,
and, having finished his prayer, he gave up
the ghost, August 10th, iii. Several Senators
who were present, were so moved that they
became Christians on the spot, and they buried
him honorably On the Same day in the Yenta
field, near the road to Tenn) and a church was
built over the grave hi the reign of Constan
tine the Great. To-day, being the vigil of the
Saint, will be kept as a solemn fast, and high
masses will be sung tomorrow in all the
churches. It is a ceremonial of the Second
Class, and the vestments to be worn arc red.
n Malta and the Mediterranean, grapes are
first brought to market on this day.

BELLADONNA VS. OflEAL — It now an ac
knowledged fact that Belladonna is the anti
dote for opium, but as this information cannot
be too widely spread, we submit the following
two cases of the kindpublished by the Archives
de Medicine: A short time ago a young lady
took by mistake a quantity of laudanum equi
valent to two teitSpOOnsful—that is, represent
ing six deei grammes of the gummy extract of
opium. The taste of the drug made her sensible
of what she had done, and she hem ed lately told
her friends of it, who instantly administered a
cup of coffee, a very appropriate remedy, but
which was immediately ejected, and the pa
tient began to feel a very painful spasm in her
stomach. The doctor did not arrive until an
hour and a half after the accident; when he
found the patient ly140," on a sofa, and very
pale; the., pupils were contracted to such an
extent that the pupiliary orifice was rednec, , d
to a small black point; the skin was cold at
the extremities, the pulse low and intermit
ting. The patient was in a state of stupor,
from which, however, she could be roused
by speaking to her. Ten drops of the alcoholic
tincture of belladonna were administered in a
quarter of a ttamblerful of water, but were
soon ejected. The next ten drops were given
in only a teaspoonful of water, and this was
retained, and this system was continued by
five droPs of tincture at a time at short inter
nals. The patient thus imbibed as much as
-four grammes of thmture, and soon recovered.
The second case is of a young woman who
laid taken opium voluntarily with a view to
commit suicide. The medical man called
four hours after the net had been committed,
and a large quantity of the poison must con
sequently have already been absorbed into the
system, The pupils were 80 contracted that
the patient had lost the power of vision ; the
jaws were iirmly locked together, nose and ex
tremities cold, pulse slow and weak, and in
sensibility general. As it was too late to ad
minister emetics, thirty drops of tincture of
belladonna were admimstered by forcing the
jaws asunder with the handle of it Spoon, keep
ing meantime the nostrils closed. The symp
toins, however, became so alarming that the
doctor administered upward of seventy drops
of tincture more, by ten at a time, in less than
half an hour. The pupils then began to dilate ;
the patient was subjected to a good whipping,
which reanimated her, and. the dangerous
symptoms soon disappeared.
A Pim:TRW:S Woria.—A London literary
journal saps: Half a century since there
Might have been seen in a few London book
sellers, shops certain curious volumes on very
strange subjects, the text in a plain hand
writing,and the illustration pictures selected
front various books. These pieces of literary
industry were the labor of one Joseph Taylor,
an industrious explorer of bookstalls and
student et the great public libraries:. He left
them with the bookselletS for sale at such
fancy prieek as he thought they might possibly
obtain from their customers. His topics were
so strangely chosen that the publi-hers were
afraid to publish his MSS.; and out of nearly
one Inublred - works compiled by him, not
more than half-a dozen were printed.
visitors to the Industrial Exhibition now
heing held in Covent Garden will probably
have noticed a volume similar to those de.
scribed above. It is the work of a London
compositor, and describes his autumn rambles
in the county
. of Kent. The penmanship of the:
volume, including its ornamental initial let- •
ters of chapters, are sufficient evidences of in
dustry; but it contains, also, a hundredfall
page water-color views, and twenty 7 .4even
drawingc, all sketched front na
ture. The anthor, Mr. Milli= Damper, states
that his book was commenced in 185 n anti com
pleted in 181;4, the whole of the composition,
writing,and delineation havingbeen executed
during the leisure time before and after busi
ness hours. A portion oVthe work, comprising
an account of the town of Maidstone, together
with a series of rambles over the neighboring
hills, is, we understand, about to be published
by subscription.
