BRESIIAM V0LKSFEST.
GRAND GALA D AJ.
Every Body Participating.
rOCEEDISG3 OP WEST DAT.
Yesterday morning was ush
ered in by the tiring ot artil
lery. TLe snn rose clear, prom
ising a beautiful day for indulg
ing iii the festivities of the
Volksfest:
The-proccssion was formed on
ATain street opposite H.. Blootn
bargh's. At ten o'clock it
moved, headed by a large fbnf
horse wagon, tastefully decorat
ed, containing the Washington
"County Brass Band. The horses
were elegantly caparisoned.
Second came carriages contain
ing the speakers. Third, bug
gies with Mayor and City Offi
cials. Pourth, Queen ot the
Feat rind her maids of honor.
'Fifth, decorated wagon, con
taining a number of ladies, en
chantingiy arrayed. Sixth, pub

teachers. Seventh, Brenham
brass Hand. Eighth, Hook

.uniform, trail? drawn by a
mule Ninth, Austin County
Brass Baud. Tenth, Military
Company. Eleventh, Local op
tiotr wagon, handsomely deco
rated by .Messrs. Klaeden and
Uoddie. Twelfth, citizens on
horseback. Thirteenth, Singer
Sewing Machine "Wagon, ap
propriately decorated. Four
teenth, a Whitewater "Wagon,
neatly decorated; and lastly an
immense number of citizens on
horseback, buggies, carriages
and wsigons.
The donkey and the clown
came in for a fair share of ob
servation, for the part they per
formed' in the procession, con
tributing much to the merri
ment of all the juveniles,.and
even children of full growth,
not to say venerable, "grave and
jeverend segniors."
The processiou Tyas consider
able more tlun a mile in length,
and moved along the following
streets to the old Fair Grounds.
Down Main street to Vulcan
street, Vulcan to Sandy, Sandy
to Market, Market to Main,
Main to North street, North
to Sandy, Sindy to Abbott's
corner, and thence to the fair
grounds.
The procession moved in fine
order the Marshals of the day
dischared their duty most effect
ively. Throughout the entire
march, the utmost harmony
. prevailed.
OTHE GEOUXDS.
The reoeption ot the Qnccn
at th grounds, was grand and
imposing, and the ballad sung
in,German, was most beautiful
ly rendered. , King William
and suit -were received with
becoming honors, and a Ger
man song, breathing patriotic
sentiments,
A handsome bouquet was
presentnJ by th5 Brenham Hook
and Ladder Company, to the
Queeji of the Fest, Miss Bcttie
Engclke. The presentation was
made by Mr. Eddie Loekett, a
member of the Company, ac-'
companied by an appropriate
speech, which was responded to
right royally by the fair and
blushing Quofti, whoe sceptre
was swayed over loyal subjects.
The bands discoursed spleu
did music. "The day of the
Creator" was a superb piece of
music.
The German oration by Carl
Schutzo abounded in happy hits
ntho follies of the day. He
gave local option .same heavy
tilts, which were heartily cheer
ed, especially by our Gprmim
fellow citizens Mr Schntze
was warmly congratu1ated hy
his many friencU on the success
of his speech.
The E'lglih oration wa dp
liered by our distinguished
towii!.ras.u C. R. Brecdlnvc,
Esq, in "his most felicitous vein.
On this occasion Mr. Breedlovc
i seemed fo Enrpass himself, his
BREMAM, WASHETGTCXSr COOTTY,
speech being interlarded by an
ecdotes suitable to the day and
the occasion.
The sports and athletic exer
cises were indulged in with a
will which plainly demonstrat
ed that thu hearts of the actors
were in the pastimes and sports.
The day was beautiful, and was
one ot unalloyed enjoyment to
thousands and thousands of our
own citizens, a3 well a3 to vis
iting friends in attendance from
a distance.
SECOND DAT.
The Washington County Brass
Bind discoursed lively airs on
the streets of the tity yesterday,
for an hour or more before as
sembling at the grounds. The
band in its winding through
the principal streets, was fol
lowed, by Emperor William and
his cortege, mounted on splen
did horses, caparisoned as befit
ted the mimic royal suit. This
cavalcade attracted much at
tention, and presented an im-
posing appearance.
The day was beautiful, and
the amusements on the grounds
were endless in variety. The
attendance was even greater
than on, the preceding day.
They came from every quarter
and every mode of conveyance
seemed to be utilized to accom
modate the immense throngs of
visitors, more intent on seeing
than in being seen.
Every style of toilet was visi
ble among the ladies, from the
plaiu and simple, but still ueat,
to the grand, elaborate and gor
geous. At bout 3 o'clock an able ora
tion was delivered to an atten
tive and delighted audience,
by Professor Rote. This was
followed by declamations' by a
number of the students in our
schools.
The grounds were in excel
lent condition for enjoying the
pleasure of a quiet promenade,
and indulging in the pleas
ures arising from agreeable
chit chats. Wo noticed
many couples devoting them
selves to this halcyon pastime.
In future years it is not impos
sible that many conples will rc
mem'ier this Fest as an-important
era in their lives, the one
from which they may date their
first rosy dreams of unalloyed
felicity.
The awards for athletic exer
cises were too late for this issue
of the Baineb
In future numbers, when
all the awards are made, we
will give them, and such other
items connected with the festiv
ity, sis may "be deemed "of in
terest to our readers.
The occasion has been one of
pleasure to all who attended,
-without regard to nationality.
In the future, the Americans
will look forward to this annual
festival with as much interest
as will the Germans and their
descendants. It is a "fact, ac
knawledged by a large number
of American writers, that we
need a strong infusion of holi
day sports into onr customs.
The expression of expectation
more than realized, was made
by numbers of vistors. Austin
county was nore largely repre
r.en'ed than any of the rest of
our sisters. These visitors, we
are glad to know, expressed
themselves fully satisfied with
the amusements. Indeed they
xould not be otherwise than
pieced, unless they were unu
sually hard to gratify. We
shall look forward to thu next
annual festival witn more than
customary "interest.
European intelligence leave
little ground on which the
friends of paflF can base even
a faint hope 'of much lunger
preserving a peaceful attitude.
It is believed by the w:sest
statesmen that a general conflict
cannot bo averted. God help
the peoplel War, with all its
inseparable evils, is the wort
calamity that ever visited tlm
tin cursed earth.

There is an article in a recpnt
number ot the Montgomery
(Ala.) Advertiser, directed to
this class of its readers. We
wish we had room for the entire
article, without any attempt at
condensation.
The great powers in Europe
are almost icitasn to become
involved in the war between
Russia and Turkey, and when it
will end, is o.ieof the things on
which no man can hazard an
opiniuo. But let it last long,
or be a brief contest, it is certain
to derange the busitifc-s ot all
the world. Already it has run
grain up in this country sixty
cent! a bushel. Great Britan
takes lrom Russia, annually
00,000,000 biuhels. This sup
ply is certain to bo cut off frdm
her, even if she -hould avoid
being a belligerant, but bellig
erant she is almost certain to be
in some bhape, before it close1.
She must get thee 60,000.000
bushels of wheat from some
source, and that source will be
thj United States.
Cotton is csrtain to come
down lower thin it is, and it is
equally certain lhat provisions
of every name will go up. Under
all the i-ircumstaiices, it is not
too late for cotton planters to
increase their corn crop and di
iniiiish their cotton. With
birns and smoke-hou-es well
filled, the lo.v price, ot cotton
will not be o calamitous. But
with these empty, or next door
to it, the low price of cotton cm
be little less than disastrous to
:i large number of our planting
friends, and we beseech them
to take ra sensible view of the
situation, and reflect on what
may be thjir best interests to
pursue under the circumstances.
The danger is a very plain
one. A moment's reflection
will show it. It cau hardly be
overestimated. The remedy is
in the hands of the farmers. It
is not too late yet, especially in
the northern portion ot our
State, to apply it. Even here,
in Washington county, particu
larly where the gra-ishoppero
hive eaten the cotton, corn may
yet be substituted.
Bishop G kegg is engaged in
spring visitations to the church
es. Lat Sunday he preached
at Bovine, administered the
S'lerament and the rite of con
firmation, .nis sermon, though
evincing the- erudition of its
learned author, was delivered
in a style and manner which
rendered it sublime from its
very simplicity. Bishop Gregg
is greatly beloved by the -nn n
bers of his "diocese We never
heard him but once, yet thought
he deserted the veneration in
which he is held. His man
iv rs are as simple and nnaffect
ed as- those of a child. He was
as-iotcd by Rev. Mr. Ruckerot
this city, who is rector of the
church at Bellvile.
The GaIv:ston JTews of the
27th inst, contains an editori.il
two-thirds Qt a, column in
length, ventilating the opinions
of ono J. II. Burns, under the
c-iption of 'A Tec is Repn'Mi
c hi's Soothing Theory ot tin
President's Southern Policy."
Now, when we take into con
sideration the fact thaUBuins Is
a Republican of no influence
whatever with his party, or any
one else, it becomes astonishing
ly strange that the SVews should
attach bo much importance to
such small game.
