The Democratic party in Congress has yielded

llittr.iit Prospects ix Texas.?Railroad construction
is very active in Texas. Out of twelve
roads within the Sta'c limits nine are pushing
extensions and additions to a rapid completion.
Immigration to the State is unparalleled. Not
I less than 100,000 incomers have crossed the
L> Red lliver since last September, and still the

sion in business in Texas than in any of the

T Skttj.k.iis.?There is said to be more settlers
securing Ub#ts* in Florida this winter than at

of Stale officials chosen by the people, pledged
to an honest and economical administration,
seems already to have placed Florida on the
highway to prosperity.

valuable remedy to me."
Gov. James M. Smith, of Georgia, savs : ?
"I shall always use it with perfect confidence,
and recommend it to the public as a remedy
which will afford that satisfaction experienced
by me and mine. It cxcells everything for
coughs, colds and obstinate lung affections."
Ex-Gov. Brown,yf Ga., says :?"He finds the
Globe Flower Cough Syrup a most excellent

Such endorsement by our great and good men
deserves tlie attention of the atllicied. Those
suffering from caugh, colds ami lung affections

Marshal's Portrait of Hampton.
There are two distinct portraits of Gov.
Hampton. The one issued by the "Hampton
Portrait Company," of Charleston, S. C., is engraved
in line by Mausiiai.i., and will be of imposing
appearance, and life-size. There is also
a print out representing the Governor. Wc
suggest that our people wait and see both pictures,
before choosing which they will have.
Marshall's famous engravings ate attracting
unusual attention. The superb large line engraving
of Washington, from Stuart's celebrated
oil portrait in ibe Huston Alheiucutu?a plate
| valued at ten thousand dollars?when originally
brought out about ten years ago, at once placed '
Mr. Marshall in the very front rank of engravers,
ancient or modern, meeting, both in Europe I
ami America* the most extravagant encomiums |
of artists, critics, and men of judgment. It was j
even selected lor exhibition at the French Acad- j
cray of Design, an honor accorded to none but '
the very highest works of art. It is, moreovertlichcs
.ndcud the only satisfactory^pcylxaiA- ,
of Washington that exists, and is the acknowledged
standard "household engraving" of him.
The lute Edward Everett said of it : "The magnificent
engraving of Stuart's head of Washington,
*lt is truly a superb work." lhincrot'l,
the historian, writes: "1 have been for some
years a collector of the many different engroj. ;
vings of the portraits of Washington. This is
beyond comparison the best of them all?the
only one that is perfectly satisfactory." Mr.
George S. 11 i I lard, the well known art critic,
says: "Were it the head of some unknown person,
a lover of art would be glad to have a copy
of the engraving for its rare intrinsic merits,
ami every American should be ready to make
some sacrifice in other ways in order to possess
so satisfactory a representation of WashingUm,"
Marshall s 11. E. Lee, just out, is a wonderful 1
work, and in a few days his "Gov. Hampton"
will go to the people of South Carolina and the
country, a noble tribute to a great leader, who
conquers bv his high character and by peaceful
means, not by the sword.?Setra and Courier.
And from the Columbia Keyister the accompanying
letter .'l'u
k Hampton Forth ait. ? Wc publish for the
information of the people of the State the following
extract from a letter received from Charleston,
mldrcsscd to Mr. C. 1'. Folliam :
"Some misapprehension exists as to the proprietorship
in the Humpton Fort rait Company.
Fcriuit me to say that a majority of the investment
is held here. As one of tho proprietors,
i am auenuing lu its atiairs until otlicr.and pcrinnncnt
airaiigcments arc concluded. I originated
the project of a portrait of Governor
Hampton in a high stylo of art, thinking it a
worthy manner in which to recognize his Lxcellcticy's
public services to the people of this
State daring the past six months. Those scrvi- j
ces entitle him to be presented to his country- j
men every where in a style equal to that in
which Washington and Lee and other rcresentativo
gentlemen of the country are shown.?
Time was required for this great work, that care
and skill should muko it perfect. Its publication
has been anticipated by another issue, of
the merits of which the public can judge. In
seleclingan artist the gentlemen associated with
me have given preference to Mr. Marshall.?
Gustitvc Dure, the great artist of France de- j
clarea him to be 'the veritable master of art in
America.' If wo do not realize all our cxpec- |
tutions in a pecuniary point of view by reason
of atlilfercnt publication, we must accent that
fortune ? the penalty of attempting to do t/tr
but poa.iible in art for our lo st man, wc shall hope,
nevertheless, to possess an ample reward in the
runntcTinx of a <;tt.\xi> smiimi'dsixc I'outuait,
wlueh will command an appreciative circulation
if lint so largo as might have been under more
propitious circumstances. In a very few days
the public can judge for themselves, and can
very well afford to wait a littlu, and make their j 1
choice with M a its ii a i.i. \s spkniud woiik, IIKFOItf.

1 "Wauk II ami'tox, Govkunou ok Sol'tit Carolina,"
is the subject of an exquisite nearly
life-size engraving, just published (and now
ready) by our enterprising friends, Walker,
Eraus Cogswell, Charleston. S. C. We congratulate
these gentlemen on the grand success
they have made of so noble a subject. As a

new hikI secret process based on photography,
having the advantage of great truthfulness. As
the photograph lias superseded the oil-painting,
because ot its exact reproduction of the subject,
so this | roecss is bound to take the place of steel
engraving, or any method which ilepcmls upon
artistic conception and execution for result?we
mean for the production of portraits. What
the people want in a portrait is truth ?they do I
nut wish the artist's conception of a man, but
the face uud features of the man as he is?and
by no means can this grand result be better attained
than by the means of photography, and
this new process based thereon, lint while these
great ad v in '.ages arc secured, it admits of the
embellishments of art, and a portrait is produced
possessing ali the iruthfulne.-s of a
photogni] h, with the artistic effect of the
] steel engraving. The publishers have been extremely
fortunate in their selection of the muilr
by which they give to all admirers of the great
statesman tlie noble, generous, manly features,
which speak so plainly the gieat mind, elevated
feeling, and generous heart of Wade 11 amnion.
Those who worked for the grand cause,
"Hampton and Home Rule," who have paid taxes
to the government of their choice, can now
place this picture at their firesides, as they have
placed its subject in their hearts. It must become
one of the "Penates" of South Carolina.
Those who sympathized with the gallant little
State in the struggle against such tremendous
odds, will be pleased to have this portrait in
their homes?a glorious memento of a peaceful,
: noble effort of a liberty-loving people to redeem
j themselves fiom oppression and misrule.

Which may be done with one-fourth the
usual expense, by using our
PATENT SLATE PAINT
(Fiftcsu Year* Established.)
MIXED READY FOR USE.
Fire-Proof, Water-Proof, Durable,
Economical and Ornamental.
A roof may bo covered with a very cheap
shingle, ami hy application of this slate be made
to Inst from l*t? to 2o years. Old roofs can be
} patched and coated, looking much better and
lasting longer than new shingles without the
slate, for
One-third the Cost of Re-Shingling.
The expeuso of slating new shingles is only
about the cost of simply laying them. The paint
is fikk-1'rouk against sparks or tiyiug embers,
as may he easily tested hy any one.
IT STOPS EVERY LEAK,
and for tin or iron lias no equal, as it expands hy
heat, contracts by cold, ami nkvku cracks nor
scales. Root's covered with Tar Sheathing Felt
can be made water tight at a small expense, ntid
I,r?.I ft.. n.on?
This Flute Paint is
EXTREMELY CHEAP.
Two gallons will cover ft hundred square feet of
shingle roof, while on tin, iron, felt, matched
hoards, or any smooth surface, from two quarts
to one gallon are required to 100 square feet of
surface, and although the paint has a heavy
hody it is easily applied with a brush.
No Tar is usod in this Composition,
- ?t?nrefni e, u neither crack ih "Winter, nor runs
in Summer.
On decayed shingles, it fills up the hole* and
pores, and gives a new substantial roof that will
last for years. ft'iti.KU oil w \iti'Ki> shingles it
brings to their places, and keeps them there.?
It fills up all holes in felt roofs, stops the leaks
?and although a slow dryer, rain docs not affect
ii a few hours after applying. As nearly
all paints that are black contoius tah, bo sure
you obtain our genuine at tide, which (for shingle
roofs) is
(' II 0 C 0 L K T E C O L 0 It,
when first applied, changing in about' a month
to a uniform slate color, and is, to all intents
and purposes si.atk. Oil

our red color is usually preferred, as one cont is
equal to five of any ordinary paint For
BRICK WALLS
our t'.iuciiT nr.t> is the only reliable Slate Paint
ever introduced that will effectually prevent
dampness from penetrating and discoloring tho

These paints are also largely used on outhouses
