TEXAS. A Trip from Northeast to South- west Through the Stato. pescriptions of Austin, San An~ tonio, and Other Places. \A Rich and Thriving Country---The Dolights of Camping Out, \charms of the Climate-~-Tho RBuccess of the German Colony. Fpectal Correspondence of The Tribine, gan AxTON10, Tex,, Scpt. 2.~My last letter toTug Tuinuse and my first fhom Texas gave {he results of my observations in the northern countics of the State traversed by tho two par- ailel Jfues of the Texas & Paclfic Raftroad, with atripover that portion of tho Texas Central which conneeta the two from 8herman to Dal- Jag, and closing with the trip from the latter place to Longview, whero I connected with the International & Great Northern Raflrond, whoso preeent terminug Is Austin, the State Capital. Toking the cars at Longview, the youte for some 100 iles in & southwesterly di- yection Is through the pine and oak forests. Tpese are tich and valuable ns a lumber-supply tothe vast pralrie country to the west, Many Jarge farms have heen opened on the best of these Jonds, but the soil fs thin, and the crops small In comparison with those of the pral- re country, aund T moticed wherever waler was standing nlong the hefls of the crecks [t had the ramo green, uuwholesome fouk that T everywhere noticed n the timbered 1ands of Arkunsos, strongly suggestive of ehakes. In puint of fuct, aside from the ques- tion of the productiveness of the soil, I feel coutident that In this Bouthern climate people need the free, unobstructed sweep of the winds of the prairics, hoth for comfort and health. Night shut down upon us before we had emerged from the thnber reglon. On awaken- fog in tho morning the first thing that greeted my vislon was a pgenulng Northern Ilinols prairle, famillar in all ita napects cxeept it great felds of cottun. Inail others—its substantinl farm-houses sad fences, its stubble ficlds and straw plles, Its corn-tields,’ and its groves of Himber—It looked like home, The next wnsa clear, running streamn,—the first T hiad yet seen, —its watcrs na clear and sparkling ns I ever eaw 4o New England, Half-past 8 In the morning ‘Dbrought us to AUSTIN, THE STATE CAPITAL, -a beautiful ity of abous 20,000 inhabitants, on Mue east bank of the Colurado River. The Viufly and somewhat broken eround borderiug 4he river gives great variety to the surface, and, white {uvolving coneiderable cost to properly grade somo of tho principal Lusiness strects, affonls some very heautiful and commanding altes for tho Jocation of public bufldings and private realdences, The strocts aro very broad, e principsl ones not less than 125 feet, with some very fing public bulldings aud business- blocks. Same of the most recent of these are Lulit of nsoft white limestone, almost as white as Vermont imdle, which §s quarried from tho bluffs close at band, and so moft when taken from the quarry that It I8 casily cut into any desired shape by a common cross-cut saw in the hands of two men, who will saw a block In two almost a8 quickly snd as casfly ns they would saw thgough o block of ouk wooll of thy” same pize, though the stous hardens on exnosiire to the atmosphere, Austin, and I think all Texan towns of an slze, fa ns coagopolitan In charncter ns Chi- cago, with ns great o variety of natfonalities and occupations, ns great diversity of opinlons, po- litleal, socinl, and rellglous,—and ns free o toleration of the same as can be found any- where, and it scems to me that the same Inflit- ences which have made the towns what they ara In these ruspects are vapldly molding the eitire Btate, and though Couservatism and Bourbon- km may In souie portions lold sway for a con- siderable time to come, they must'eventually give way before the influence of this steady tido of emigration which fs pouring into the'State {from nll parts of tho Unlun, and to some extont from Europe. While In Austin I avalled myeclf of tho op- yortunity to gather information” from the Gen- erat Land Ofice In rezard to the land system of the State and Jond tities, Thero bas hecn agreat deal of froud perpeteated n the sale of Texas Junds with defective or fraudulent titles, and, with the fncreasiog uterest In regard to the Btate, the_dangzer 'In this direction will be in- crensed.

This, being “on a main thoroughfure und bordering the bruken Umber ad Jands, was more jmproved sod developed than any part of the State I bad scen, Many times, us far as cye could reach over the praire, it was an unbroken succession of 1mpmvnl farme—tho bill district on our " right and the Lroken land along the waler-courses durudug the only vpen land for stock, and bere for the st tlme 1 found pastures for stock feueed, The mprovements were of a very sub- stantial character,—large, roomy houses, and {enchig ol either stune walls of red cudnr, of thof whiclh the bhill country furnisbesan abundance. Our objective polat for the nlzht was SBan arco, or, augliclzed, Salut Marcus, the county- gcat of Haya Couuty, aud thirty miles distant rum Austin.

Many have curlously-desicned profecting ables nand mullerles, while many others, evi- ently of recent origin, are huilt with all mod- ern finprovements, ~The farmers show a hetter and more’ thorouzh system of farming than I have found eleewhere,” They clalin an nverage yield, taking lnto necount partinl failures from droughts, geasshoppers, or other causes, of twenty bushels of wheat, sixty of oats, forty of barley, thirty of corn, and three-quarters of a bale of cotton, with much greater yleld when the conditiona are all favorable, ‘The village of New Braunfels, which is the Inrgest in the distrlet, lina shout 2,000 fie habitants; has zood hotels, stores, churches, &chools, and private residences; hus & woolen- factory, earriaze and wagon factories, brewerles, and flouring-mills, and other minor manufac- torlea.

This mesquite, thouch sometimes growing nto trees nrleun- slderable size (depending upon the amount of molsture), s here of snall growth,—ten or twelve eet high,—growing about as thick upon the ground as o peach-orchard {s usually set, and ot a distance much resembling an old peach-orchord, When of suiliclent size, It makes very durgble fonce-posts, the heart wood heing about the color of red cednr.

TOOD AND DRINK'1 TIMP, Fiinburg Recter, It was not only fn sofid tood, tmt aleo in eweets and kickshaws, that the English tabie of the asixteenth century abounded. - Gentle- wen and merchauts had five or slx dishea fol- Towed by jeilles, marchpalue, tarts, and confece tions, “Of the potato and such vencrous ronts 8y are brourht out of Spafn, Portingale, and the Indles to furnish up our bankets,” Hurrl- suny In bis deseription, forbears to speak, Of tea and coffue he s quite silent, thoush he has somethiig to say of tobaceo, the ure of which was spreuding rapldly, so that a few years later Hentzner, the German traveler, could gay, “The Euglish are constantly emokinz tubacco.” We have only to reflect what lifo in England would bo without tea, coffee, and potatoes to be convineed haw entirely different Hfe In Etfzabeth's days was from ours. It Ia, however, with gomcthing lke an fnward pang that we record the fact that 25,000 tuns of home-grown wine were mado in Evcland in Harrlson's thne; but we remember the Grine Lerger still inaste near Berlin, and _pase on hold- ing our diaphragms, That the English drank guantities of forelgn wines is plain from the act that thirty kinds of strong and fifty-six of light winea wera to b had in Londun.

The mexit of stch wina was that it was both stronz and genuine, for,as Harrison tells us, * the merchant thousht s soitle should have gone strelzhtwale to the divell if he should have served them (the priests) with other than the best,” It fs to be consld- ercd whether a great part of the loss of Influetice of the Enelish clerey at the present day may 1ot be ascribed to thetr abandominent of urtho- dox theologieal port, As for the lower clasad they made goml cheer wherever they coulid ity and though thelr dally fare waghard, they had frequent ovportunities of fegsting and carousing at bride-ales, and drinking, and other ocensfons, each pruest bringing o dish, and the good an of the house where the feast was held only finding drink und house-roor.. The work- inz'men Intown always ate butchers’ ment, and though they wero mure frugal in the conntry, they saw _iresli meat far more often than the modern laborer.

Davld A, Wells Explalns the Position of the Frea-Traders, Nonwicm, Conn., Sept, 25.—Ts the Editor of it Btostns Journal of Commerce: In your conr- teous article of Sept. §, entitled, *How Shall the Natfon Bewalu Prorperity I 1 think yvou do ijustice to Mr. Edward Atkinson, Prol. F. A. Walker, and the writer, In naming us as amonz the economlsts “on this slde of the Atlantic’ who plead “for Free Trade without reserve or restriction s’ or, us some one has hap- pily expressed it, © who care more for the pre scription thon the patient.” - [ am certain that e ure ot any such men, Knowing, moreover, pretty intlmately nearly all the so-called promi- nent Free-Traders in the United States, I can count up on my fingers the whole number who plead for the abolitlon of all custom-houscr, and the adoptlon of Free Trade, pure and stm- vle, as the inmedlate fiscal policy of the Gov- ernment, The firat requisite for the maintenance of the Etate Is the command and reeular rpeeipt of revenue, Whether this revenue shall be ralsed by dlrect or Indirect taxes, b{ excise or linports, eensen or stamps, are questlone of convenlence and expediency, What the Free-Traders, with whom [ have tha honor to be associated, es- peelally plead for fs, that there shall be no more restricifons §mposed or malutnined on the liberty to carry on trade or commerce, Internal or external, than (8 absolutely necessars to meet the requiremonts of the Staie for revenue, and for the enforcement of necessary sanitary and pallee regulations. Reasunable “as thi* policy heeins to be, the people of the United States— although fally appreclating the blessings of liherty of epeceh, of the press, of the pulplt, and of the person—are not vet educated up to its hut In larme numbers sl aold ta the beliet that the country can be maide rich by impeliog trade and comineree, sad by multiplying Z fur purpoxes otoer than those above specifled. When the country s ready fur the adoption of amore liberal commerclal policy than (x now maintalned, {, for une, desire to better chart for immediate procedure than what the Boston Jonrnal of Commeree Inva down In the following ut age: “ I'rotection ns an extreme policy 1 outzrown to u grent extent, but yet our manufacturing {nte:ests are not altogethicr prepared fur Free Trude. There (8 danger, too, fn the sudden change from one extreme to the otler, and forcing it upon all Industrial futerests alike; while by ssdupting a moderate chance no fnjury would result, and the way to the next stage— Free Trade—could then be more eritieally e amined, By such a poliey the Natlon would ad- vauce with caution, and avold—what {8 of the utmost Importance—rululnz estahlizhed futer- cats in which native eapital ts Invested.” In other words, the Nutlonal Government having now fur & perfod of seventeen years wlopted and maiatained a definite fiscal policy, to which all the varied industriul interests of the country have eftber willingly or unwillingly been compelled tonecommodatethemselves, it b not only the part of true statesinanship, but of slple justicy, for the Giovernment, {n entering upon & now and dlfferent policy, to abstain from radlcul and sudden changes: to make every step tentatlve: and, in abavndoning Pro- tection based on taxation ami restriction, to substitute another, wiser, and wholly legitimate form of Protectlon, namely: that growing out cheaper raw materfals for the great manulactures, and cheaper and better instrumentalitics for facllitating the exchanry of products,—speclally frea ships and good money. 'The great obatacle in the way of reform has, however, been, that the party of Protection, ‘which for tnuny years has controlled onr nne tonal legisintion, has thus fae been unwilling to eoncede anything in the wuy of relaxution in eommercial restrictions or abatement of tariif- taxes, Lut, on the vontrary, has defended and maintained every Lt"u“ abuse_that chose to ahelter ftaelf under the name of Protection, and denounced with great uvanimits all {riends of Frca Trado as unpatriotic, venal, nud as in favor of the abolltion of 'all Custom-Houses, aud of a resort to direct taxatfon, It, now, there {s any considerable class of per- rons who are unwillhig to take upon themselves the name of Free-Traders, but, accepting the views of the Boston Journal of Comnerce, are willing to unite In advocating eveu the most muderate tarifl-reforms, such as g thy woolen manufacturers fres wool an reduciug the daty on finports of woolen fabrics to 80 or 85 per cent, abating or entirely remave fuz the unnccessary and oppressive duties on copper, bichromate of potash, soda-ash, quinine, Jute, Hnmeed oll, aniline dyes. and wood-screws, uml abrogating an antiquated system of naviga- tion lawa, under whicl the American commer- cinl marine for tho past vear stood still or de- creased, while the commeretal marino of Cana. da, England, and _every other European mari- thwe nation notably Increased,—if there aroany such persons ready for auch refors {n the tar- 11, 1 will anewer “for the Free-Trado party, so- called, that it will nut only stund back and_ let the ‘“moderates take the lead in advising Cone greds in fts comine session, but that it will cos operate with them to the extent of (ta ability {n advocating such legistation and In vpposing rad- leal changes. 1aw yours, inost respectfully, Daviv A, WeLLs, Ek EILTO ACCOMMODATI 8 Lhroughout the l:l‘l)" eaignated below, where ad price fa clurked t the Sata thilce, aind will be recolvid until 4 o'clock p. .
