J PROSPECTIVE.
Tlie experience of tlie past,
lliree or tour years lias not
been wasted by the farmers and
planters "ot Washington and
adjoining counties. Tliey liave
at last diseovpredjltat, although'
cotton is about the only article
that they can produce which
will bring money, it does not
p.iy to raise all cotton and buy
li.icr.n and flour. The conse
quence is that nearly every
farmer in this couuty has
tnrned a part of his attention to
hog raising; and by procuring
improved breeds ot swine and
giving them a little care, has,
this Bcason, been enabled to
raise an abundant supply of
that very requisite article, pork.
V.re are warranted in venturiug
the assertion that nearly, if not
all, the meat required for con
sumption at home the piesent
year has been made in the
count'. In this respect a great
revolution has been accom
plished. The people are now
in a condition to "live at home."
No matter what may be the
price of cotton, we arc sure
that we will have something to
cat.
The season opens very favor
ably, the weather is fine, farm
ing operations are active, and
ive are pleased to learn trom
numerous sources the farm
bauds, both white and bl.ick,
are working with a vim. The
lat season having proved some
what disastrous on account ot
drought asd "worms" late in
the season and "hoppers" early
in the season, -te crop was cut
off very ucarlyone-third. The
majority' ot farmers made no
money, while some c.ime out
behind. There seems now to
dc a general disposition to re
pair damages. With a good
stock of meat and bread on
hand, the outlook is certainly
cheerful.
A very large acreage, compar
atively, of Irish potatoes'is being
planted, and should no unto
ward circumstance intervene,
the crop will be double, per
haps triple, ot that of last year.
This crop ' willbring a consid
erable amount"" ot money into
the county at a time when it
"will do the most good."
Iu addition to the potato
crop, experiments are being
made ii raising early garden
vegetables, such as peas, beans
and tomatoes. A buyer from
St. Louis is already on the
ground, making his arrange
ments for the purchase of this
kind of produce, and also po
tatoes. So soon as it becomes
known abroad that Washington
county produces largely ot this
discriptiou of produce, plenty
ot buyers from other markets
will come here abundantly supplied-with
cash to pay for all
that can be raised.
Taking everything into con
sideration, the present season
opens with more favorable aus
pices, than any since the late
unpleasantness.
" The Galveston News sug
gests that Galveston would be
the most proper place lor hold
ing tlie next State convention,
and puts forth in glowing colors
the many advantages offered by
that city, the railroad connec
tions, the. hotel accommoda
tions, the large hall, the beach,
eta, etc., bnt sajs nut a word
about the size and voracity of
the Galveston mosquitoes. Gal
veston, however, is as accessible
to all parts of the Slate as any
other one point, except Hous
ton. TnK Banner is under obliga
tions for a complimentary tick
et to the Mardi Gras receplion
nt Artillery Hall, Galveston,
Monday, March 4th. The
ticket is from the lithographic
establishment of M. Strickland,
Galveston, and is, in our opin
ion, as handsome a job as was
ever gotten up m the State.
Stato Convention.
Elsewhere appears the circu
lar letter ot Major .Joseph D.
Saver, chairman ot the Demo
cratic State Executive Commit
tee, to tlie members of the
committee throughout the State
asking for advice as to the
time and place at which the
next State convention shall be
held. There has been some
talk in the papers as to the
proper time of holding the con
vention, concerning which there
is a diversity of opinion.
In our opinion tho,convention
should be held at as latea"period
as will admit ot a thoroughcan-'
vass. A lengthycanvass results
in no espeeial good, only tend
ing to keep an excitement and
entailing an additional expense
on the party, which is at all
times and under the most favor
able cirenrnstances heavy enough
Exciting Eastern News
The Sultan has telegraphed
to .the Czar demanding an ar
mistice. A Loudon dispatch
says, on undoubted authority,
that the Russians arc within
twenty-tour hours' march of
Constantinople. Italy is pre
pared to make an alliance with
any power that opposes Rus
sian supremacy. The Times
says, regarding Constantinople,
that the Ministerial Council has
determined to defend the city if
attacked. The Greeks have
also declared war against Tur
key. Th3 Russians captured
15,00(1 wagons and 50,000 JUus
sclmcn near Adrianople. No
news has been received troin the
peace plenipotentiaries. In
England the disposition seems
to be secure a settlement "of
peace with the concurrence ot
all the Europe?!! powers.
The trial of the Returning
Board cases is developing mm.li
crookedness. The Pinkston
case is being exposed. The
Republicans introduced the tes
timony ot four witnesses, while
the Democrats were allowed
to examine but one. The ras
cality practiced will be fully
exposed, and the actors in the
disgraceful transaction shown
up to everlasting infamy.
The beauties of "red tape"
are illustrated in the following
case: A Chicago man iailod.
Among other things belonging
to him were fcix hundred dollars
worth of ice. The mar.-hal
kept watch over the ice till it
melted, and then brought in a
bill lor six hundred and seventy-four
dollars for doing so.
These were bankruptcy proceed
ings. It is apparent says the San
Antonio Express, that there is
an organized movement on foot
in the northern part of Texas
to "bulldoze" the Democracy ot
the State into an acceptance of
Throckmorton as its candidate
tor Governor. Unless northern
Texas can stock the State Con
vention, it is our opinion that
Throckmorton's" prospects arc
not better than those of several
others who have been n-imed.

The San Antonio Express
says, regarding the denial ot
lion. John Ireland that he will
be a candidate tor Lieutenant
Governor, that the Segnin gen
tleman evidently desires to go
