Austin, April 7. Yesterday and
today bavo been lively ones in tho
houso of representatives and there
were more tame and juizolesa plati
tudes thrown out for the delectation of
tho mombers than in many days. The
order of business for the two days
tbo seleotion of tbo places for the
courts of appeals. This matter had
already been settled in the senate, but
the houso had not had its pull'. The
oontest began yestorday by plaoing
Galveston, Houston and Tyler in
nomination. These three places were
contestants for a court that would be
placed in that sootion of tho state.
Col. Gresham spoke for Galveston,
Judge Hamblen tor Houston, and Wil
son, of Harrison, for Tyler. There
were soveral seconding speeohos, but
nono of them attracted as much at
tention as the speech by Col. Gerald
seoonding the nomination ot Tyler,
This oourse by tho ooloncl
was a great surprise to
many. He spoke so fco'iagly of
tho advantages tnat Tyler offered. His
manner was so dignified that it was
impossible to conclude that he was
not serious. When bis name was
called he voted for Tyler.
Galveston lead on every voto and
when ttie Houston supporters bogan
to leavo tboir favorite, they changed
with great rapidity to Galveston.
Col. Crawford, of Dillas, put Dallas
in nomination and mado, as usual, a
fino speech. Swayne, of Tarrant, fol
lowed with a long talk
for Fort Worth. Neither
of those spcoohes had any oiTeot upon
the members, but men must be allow
ed to air their eloquence. These
matters are fixed generally before tho
oase is submitted for a vote. It is
liko tho jury in somo cases, when tho
jurors have beon fixed in advance.
Dallas got left by a small voto not
withstanding sho ban mado a hard
fight and tho closeness of tho vote
showed it.
Senator Carter who has worked
with great assiduity for his town of
Fort Worth, und the town was hardly
largo enough to hold him
last night. There was many
cood things takon into the stomaoh
last night by a largo number of those
who sometimes sook to make tho heart
glad by artificial means, and thoBO
potationB oost tho senator from Tarrant
a handsome sum. Tbo friends of
Dallas woro always invited to partake
but they proferrod to take thoir pun
ishment in quiet. This morning tho
oonteat is between San Antonio,
Austin and San Marco9. Tho house
bad to listed attain to nlatitudos and
chesnnts from tho chosen Bpeaker who
nominated theso several places San
Marcos was tho short horso. She
has a beautiful river and is rather a
pretty town, but dip not seem to have
much pull. Her voto was small. Tho
vote stood Austin 52, San Antonio -18
and San Marcos 1. As tho senate
ohoso San Antonio for this place, it
will now require a free conference
committee to sottlo the difTeronocB be
tween the two branches. San Anto
nio still hopes to win. Austin has
shown a lack of magnanimity
that is peculiar. Through
somo procurement that is supposed to
have emanated from somo friends of
Austin, Senator Lubbock introduced
a bill to-day in the senate, tho object
of which is to concentrate the crim
inal court of appeals at Austin. This
court now sits at Tyler and Galvoston,
and there are many who think that
Austin should bo satisfied with tho
victory it has just won in tho houso.
Senator Glasscock who is tho Austin
senator advocated tho bill. It
