^A TOTJS IN THE SOTTCHWEST
THE GERMANS IN TEXAS.
In our ride Irom AuBiin to the German town of Neu-Braunfels, we found the most beautiful and every way atiraclive country ihai we have yet seen in Texaa.
The Guada upe Mouniains, a range of rugged limesione hiUs, covered wiih a forest of cedars and other overgreenB.shehered tho couniry on the North, Bomeiimefl Bkiri'mg our road, some- jitimea falling back Irom it several milea. Many Bireams, easily forded, sparkled outof tha thick ets, lhe waters singularly clear, and gurgling pleaaant music as they ran frora the hills, and wound a serpentine courae ihrQugh.the long.gen- tie and gracefully sloping prairiea on the South, A day's journey west of Austin, the coarae sedge grass changes lo Mesquit grass, whiih is fine and thick, and remains green in aheltered spots, and everywhere at the roota, atl thc Win¬ ter. The principal tree is the live oak, which ia generally stunted and hung with long mosa, bui otten grows large and beautiful. Whether standing singly, or, as is more frequently the case, in groups, it has a very atribtng and pic turetqiie tfi'cct from the gnarled and brao^jhiiig character uf its growth, and ibe ptculiar hue ui the mingled tuliage and moss.
Neurly the whole landscape, thus dotted and checkered, was eniirely in a state of naiure, ano tho few domestic auimals that were ecaiierea over it were seemingly in lhe eiiju>menl of ab unrestricted freedom as the deer which we eaw pasturing m Iriendiy companionship with* thera. The suil was like a fine garden compust, iti which black vegetable mould, cUy, and lime had been eqiially mixed. Occasiunally, huw •ver, limestone pebbles predominated, having been drilled together in beds. There was one Biretch of ten or twelve miles, in which we dio not pass a house, ur any cultivated land ; but the valleys of tho larger streams, especially ibai ol the Sen Marcus, which waa particularly luxu¬ riant, had been muinjy cncfuscd for coiton cul ture, and there were muny planters' houses with clusters of negro cabins abpui thwm, whtch hau been built nea ly all dunng Uic last iwo years, in the live-ouk groves.
The repuris we obtained ol the crops which had been mude were altogeiher incredible. 1 can testify, huwevtr, from tny own observation, that alter the middle of January tbe cotton fields were as w*hite us thuse ua ihe best cotton land), in Mississippi when I examined them early m December, 1 should judge that in many cases half the crop would be losi from the iraposisibiiiiy of working the negroes hard enough to secure what remained on theground beiore tho time in which il wouid be necesaary to employ ihera iu preparing for the next crop. The difficulty, however, which will go far to prevent tbia Irom^ becoming agreat enslavedptaniingcountry, was agam brought to our noiice by complaint's of the loss of negroes, who were supposed lo have fled to Mexico. Anoiher difficulty which the planter has here to encounter, is the scarcity ol timber ahd ot all malerials suitable to fencing purposes. Very airong and hJgh fences nre required lo ra> sist the chaigea of the haif wild caiile and horses of the prairies. Wire, Iences, not of too expen-< sive a characier, have noi been found adequate to this purpoae, and very few plantera have thc patience or enterprise (o make trial of hedges.
The land after the first breaking-up of the prairie, is cultivated with great ease. It is light ot cleaveage, Iriuble, and il the prairie grass has been properly plowed, is almost perlectly free from weeds. A planter inlormed us that a ne¬ gro could bo depended upon lo cultivate and haive&i twenly acres ul curn, and ten of cotton; anoiher said htieeii ol coiton, and five of corn.— Iu Virginia, .ien acres ot corn alone are consid¬ ered bufhcient to employ each negro.
The eecond evening from Austin we camped under a grove ot ceaor and live oaks, beside a apring, ai the muuih of a ravine Queuing out oi the rugged hills upua the vale ol i5i. A^aik.

The next morning, wo continued onr Jonriiey, the couniry eouiiuumg the some m ali reapecis as that X have descriuea. The brai Germail setiierB we saw, we knew at once.

snd a good deal like the smaller class of farm- housea in New England, but some of themwith exterior plaster-work, or bii(%, laid up between tne timbera, instead of boarda nailed oyer tbem. A'bout these were lorger onclosares, from which extensive crops of corn faad been taken; Snd I was glad to see a number of parallelograms of cotton, not of'en of more then an acre in extent most ofwhich looked as jl they bad been judi- fiouslp cultivated, ^d had yielded a fine crop; difFering, however, jfrom that I had noiiced on the planiaiionstheday before, m ibis circum¬ stance :-:-lho picking had been entirely comple¬ ted, and-that with care, and exBctnesB, sothat none of tho cotton, which the labor of cultivation had produced, had been left to waste. The coUdn'-Bialks etood rather more closely, and were of less extraordinary size, hut much moro even or regular in their grow ih than on iheplnn- tationa.
We were entering the valley of the! Guada¬ lupe River which is ofthe same general charac¬ ter aa that ofthe San Marcos, and had peased a email hrown house wiih a turret and cross upon it, which we learned waa a Lutheran Church, whon we were overtaken by a good-natured butcher, who lived in Nea-6raunfels, whence he had ridden out early 'n ^^'^ morning tp kill and dress the hoga of one of the large farmera. Ho had finished his job and was returnine. He had been in this couniry eight years. ' He liked it very much ; he did not wish togo back to. Germany ; fae much preferred to remain hero The Germans generally were doing well and were contented. They had a hard time at first, but they wero all doing well now—getting rich. Hedid notknow butone bermanthat bad bonght a slave i ihey did not think well of Slavery ; they thought it better that alt men ebouid be free; besides, the negroes wouldnot work so well as the Germans. They were improving their condition very rapidly, especially within the last two years. It was sickly on the coast, but here it was very heolthy. He had been as well here as he was m Germany ; hever faad been ill. There were Catholics and Protestants among them; as for himself, hewas no friend 10 priests, whether Catholic or Protestant. He had enough of thera in Germany. They could not tell him anything new, and he never went to anv church.
Wo forded the Gaudalupe, and after climb¬ ing its high bank, found ourselves upon the level platue hetween the prairie hills and the river on which Neu-Braunfels ia siiuated. We had still nearly a isile to ride before entering the town, and in this distance met eight or ten large wagona, each drawn by three or four pairs .>f mules, or five or SIX yoke of oxen, each car¬ rying under iia nrck a brass bell. Thev were :ill driven by Germans, somewhat uncoutbly hut warmly and neatly dressed ; all smoking and till good humored, giving ua ''good morning*' as we met. Noticing the strength ofthe wagons, I observed that they were madeby Germans probably. ''Yes," aaid the butcher, "the Ger¬ mans make better wagons than iho Americans ; the Americans buy a great mnny of them. There are aeven wagon manufactories in Braun- fels."
The main atreet of ihErtown, which we soon enter upon, was very wide—three timeaas wide as Broadway in New York. The houses, with which it was ihickly lined on each side for a mile, were amall, low collages, ofno pretensions to elegance, yet generally looking neat and comfortable. Many were furnished with veran¬ dahs and gardens, and the majority were either stuccoed or palmed. There were many work¬ shops of mechanics and small stores, wiih signs oftener in English Ihnn in German,-and bare¬ headed women, and men in caps and short jack¬ ets, with" pendant pipes, were every wherc seen at work.
We had no acquaintance in the villago, and no means of introduction, but, in hopes that we might better saiisi'y ourselves of (he condition oftho people, we agreed to stop at an inn and gel dinner, instead of eating a cold snack in the saddle, without stopping at noon, as was our cusiom. Here, said the buicher, is my shop— indicating a email house, atlhe door of which hung dressed meat and beef eausagea-^^nd if you are going to stop, I will recommend you to my neighbor there, Mr. Schmitz . It was a small collage of a single story, with the roof extended so as to form a verandah, with a sign Bwinging before it, "Gaudalupe Hoiel, J. Schmitz,*'
I never in my life, excapt perhaps in awaken - ing ftom a dream, met with such a sudden and complet a transfer and associations. Instead of loose boarded or hewn log walls, with crevi- ces BtufTed with rags or daubed with moriar which wo have been accusiomod to see always on staving in adoor-where we have found any to open during the last month ; instead of even fouj. bare, cheereless sides of white-washed plaster which we have found twice or thrice only in a more aristocratic American residence, we were —in short, we were in Germany.
There was nothing wanting; there was noth¬ ing too much, for ono of those delightful litlie inns which the pedestrian who has tramped ihrough the Rhine land will ever remember gratefully. A long room, extending across the whole front of the collage, the walls pink, wilh stencilled panels, and scroll omamenis in crim¬ son, and with neaily framed and^glnzed preity lithographic printa hanging on all sides; a long, thick, dark oak lable, with rounded ends, oak benches at its sides ; chisseled oak chaira; a sofa, covered wuh cheap pink calico, witha small vine pattern; a stove in the corner; a little ma¬ hogany cupboard in another corner, wiih a pitcher and glasses upon it; a smoky aimos¬ pbere; and finally, four thick bearded men, from whom the smoke proceeded, wha all bow and eay "Good morning," as we lift our hats in Che doorway.
The landlady entera ; she does not readily un-' derstand us, and one ot the smukera rises imme¬ diately to assiai us. Dinner we ehall have im mediately, and she spreads the whtie cloth at an end of the table before sfae Jeeves the room, and in two minuies* time, by which we have got ofTour coatB and warmed our, hands at the atove, we are asked to an down. An excellent tsuup 18 set before us, and in succcBsion there lollow two courses of meat, neither of them purk and neiiher of them fried, two diifaea ol vegetables, salad, compo;e of peaches, coffee wuh milk, wheat bread from the iojf, and beau utui and sweet buuer,—not only aucn butter as I have uever tasted South of the Potomac before, but such as i havo been toid n hundred limes h waa impobsible to make in a Southern climate. Whatia the secret? I suppose it is extreme cleanliness, beginning lar back of where clean- iinefisutually begins at ihe^ South, and careful aud ihotiitigh .working.
We then spent an hour in conversation with lhe gemlemcu wbo were in the room; They were ah educated, cultivated, wetl-hred, re¬ apectful, kind and affable men. All were natives of Germany, and had been liviog several years in Texaa. Some of them wero travelers, their -homeB being in oifaer German seitlements; some ol them had resided long at Braunfels.
It waa BO very agreeabte to meet such men again, aud the account they gave of the Ger- miins in Texas was so iiitereaiing and gratify ing, that we were unwilling to immediately con¬ iinue our journey. - We went out to look at uur horses; aman in cap and jacket was rubbing Uieir legs—the first lime lhey had received such Bueniiou in Texas, except from ourselves or by Bpecial aud costly anangeraent wilh a negro.— Tboy wtire puahing their noses into racks filled wuh fiue mtjsquithay,—lhe first they had had in TexuB.

As I was returning to tfae inn about lOo'¬ clock, I stopped fora few moments at the gate of one of the little cottages to listen to some of the hest einging I have heard tor a long time, several parts being sustained by very sweet and well-trained voices.
In the day itme,'I saw in the public street, at no gr^at distance frpm a school-house, a lame doe, with Q band on its neck tu distinguish it from the wild deer, lest it should be shot by sportsmen. It was exceedingly heautiful, and so tame that it allowed rae to approacfa, and licked my faand. In what Anglo-American town, where there were several hundred boys, could this have occurred 1
In tho morning we found that our horses had been bedded, for tfae first lime in Texas. ¦ "As we rode out of town, it was delightful t*> meet again troops of children, with satchels and knapsacks of books, and little kettlea of dinner, all with ruddy cfaeerfnl facea, the girls eepecisl- ly so, with tfaeir faair braided neatly and without caps or bonnets, smiling and saluting us— " guiten morgen''—as we met. Noihing so pleasani as that in Texas before ; hardly in the. South.
In another letter I shall give a more particu¬ lar and statistical account of t^eu-Braunfels.— Our ride during the day after we left it, which ended at San Antonio, continued ihrough scen¬ ery much like that of the day previoua. Large portions of the prairie had been lately burned over, giving it a rather dreary appearance.— Farm-houses, mostly occupied by Germans, were in sight one from another, during most of tho way.    All appeared improving.
A Horse Biography-
" There goes " old Dandy," and a noble old fellow he is too," said eome one just now. We looked out and eaw this tamous horse, and could not help thinking howbi^vely he had done his duty in hia day and generation. *' Old Dan¬ dy" was of highly respectable parentage, and is a native of this cnunty. He w >s raised by Har¬ ry Olmsted, of Greece, and is abom 25 years of age. He was first put in livery in 1635 and hss remained in lhat harness ever since, wiihoui losing a day. Ho was first owned by Mr. Chris¬ topher and est his oals in the old yellow suble lhat occupied the ground upon which Mr. Ham ilion's fine block now standa. He has been owned at three different times by Mr. Geo Charles, whose properly he is now, and once by Mr. Geo. Walbridge. He has always been owned on State Street.
'* Horso men" think that " Dandy'' is one of the most remarkable quadrupeds that ever trot¬ ted in harness. He ^as alwaye hod ihows of iron and muscles of steel, wiih the "constitu¬ tion of a horse," an eye of fire, and a way of getting himself up that astonishes all who see him. Ho is a "Dandy'' ofan animal, gay, showy, impetuous, strong bitted, and unlike other dandies, useful. Even now, with allhis yeara upon him, he is one of the best, ii not the best " driver" in town. His muscles have losi nune of their elasticity, and his eye none of its fire. He is a dark chestnut horse, of good av. eroge size, and with a loftiness of bearing as if conscious of his noble traits.
In these days " Dandy" confines his joumey¬ ings to short drives about town and brief ramb- lings in the couniry. In former years hehas done his 75 miles before a wagon, between breakfast and tea, timeand again, and rather liked il. Some years since he was driven 68 miles a day five day» in succession and was ready for a drive to the Lake or out on the ridge, as soon'as fae faad taken a bile.   '
" Dandy" was never sick a day in fais life.— He ignores Doctors. He was never at grass.— He has lost all his natural fondness for green fielda and the like. He admires oats and sucb like substantial fare, but he despises frosh crop- pingain the couniry. Hehas often been sent to grass 4, 6, and 8 miles in the counlry, but he leaped the fence and was in the stable beforo the man returned, who took him out.
'* Dandy" runs away. He likes ihua to terri' fy young men unskilled in horses, particularly ifthey are inclined to show 03*10 the lady whom lhey may have at their side. Then '* Dandy" laughs at their feeble strength, ho contemns feminine shrines and screams and rushes oS headlong, with no thought except of his famil¬ iar stall. Facetious Dandy I When a lady los¬ es PonfidencQ in her driving cavalier tfae ride is apt to be short, and you, wilh your iricks should be held responsible lor it. But Dandy does not always choose to run away from unskilled hands. Hc somelimes indulges this propensity even when a master hand la at tfae ribbons. He wish¬ es to sfaow the vanity of fauman pride, and how much stronger his hard mouth is, than ihe strong muscles which try to control him.
"Dandy" lovea an inn. a country tavern he smelleth afar off, and always hauls up before it juat long enough lor the mixing and imbibing of a beverage, and then he proceeds. Drive him out to George Wimble's, and eee if he can be driven by any tavern where there is a bar- Not unless he hasin hiaold age taken up forthe "Maine Law," " Dandy" was always a fast faorse, and even now he can out trot the majori¬ ty of horses that compete with him. Still itis notso much his speed, as his bottom and his tremendous endurance that give him notoriety here, and make him a marvel among "horse¬ men*' everyVfhere.
" Dandy" bas been in livery 19 yeara, or ahout 6900 days. More than ihat nuraber of times has he been harnessed up, put before a "wagon" -and put through at the yip of his speed. Not less than $10,000 has fae earned in ihese 19 yeors for faia several ownerS. He has eeena vast nuraber of "awful good times," as lhey phrase it, in thosa 19 years. But he was never tight. He faas stood under the tavern sbed, or munched his hay in the tavern barn, while the sound of the dance or the revel came 10 hb eara and he ihought of the fierce drive that was before him. What hosts of young men has he "seen through," and in how muny de¬ lightful scrapes has he participated. Yet the old fellow is just aa ripe for fun os he was in the hay-day of his youth. He doea not grow old.— Time, which sets its seal on everything else, has spared ** old Dandy'' and left him as frolicsome and spirited as iffae had not reached his teens. May he live a tfaousand years.
We have tried to immortalize our friend " Dandy'* but we confess to only a general ac¬ quaintance with his career. Those who hav knowo 1 im beat are loudest in his praise. He la worthy of even a longer arlicle than this.— He knowa tis well as we, that when fae trots along over the pavement, every hody is aaying, " Look at old Dandy."—CiTici/mali Paper.
Farmeb*s Wives akd Daughters.—Ho woor Revolmionary iote mothers managed to be such matches to our Revolutionary forefathers in health and heroism, we never could rightly rec¬ oncile to the general condition ofthe sex in the Agricultural classes to which ihey belonged.— Surely ihey could not have been so overworked aa our farmers' wives are, at the present day— nor could tfaeir tninds and manners have had so Uttie chance for cultivation. Ii has been a'' mag¬ got in our brain," lor Bome timoi to write on ihis subject—pleading for some recreation and Boiiie leisure in tfae larm-houses where these two blessings aro not petticoat belongingB. But our iriend of the American AgrictiUuriat has antici¬ pated us. A correspondent ol fais thus sensibly discourses on the subjeci :—
"ltun a genuine farmer's daughter, asi told you, and * my experience' is not at alt an imagin¬ ary one. We lived away out of the village, were Burrounded by farm-houses, ana our only neigh* hors were fiumeirs;.therefore Xhave a right to aay I knowsomeihiiig about them, and faow they live. But I canuot say they were all to my tasie, or that they all had the refinement aud cultiva¬ tion which r think ii it should be the aim ot every claas. of people to possesa; yet 1 do know ihai, in more than one lumily,;the'ro grow up Bons antr daughters, with all .tho atrength of character'which iathe pride of our country aud hot only with rcfiuomenr, but oiogance ot

But I could nevor see' why it ia not as reasonable to expect one man to do all. the sowing, planting anil plonghiogi the mowing, reaping or threshing, becaose it costs hall Ifae products ofthe farm to [i ay the. hired men."
An abddction iKDEEn.—Wilh our gontlo¬ men's kid gloves all made of monkey-ekinsj (as they are,) it is not "irrelevant to the epoch'' to to know of what the monkey tribe is capable. We think it worth whife, therefore, 16 copy a passage from a paper read hefore the American Geographical Society, by Captain Gibson, Utely returned from the Ecst Indies, and bringing with him some new facts as to the tribes of Ourang outangs inhabiting tfae deserts of tfaat part of the world.   He saya.-—
"My atatement of the extraordinary peculiar¬ ities of these spparently aerai*human beings, has led to the expression of so mucfa cqriosity to know more of ihem by some, and of skeiiticisra as tu tho fact of their existence on-the part of others, that I have deemed il due to igyaelf and pnblic curiosity to give some additional ..facts, along with all the corroborative evidence that has fallen under my observation.
"While at Minlok, Palembang and Batavia, I heard many remarkable stories oflhe agility, audacity, and especially of the supeffauman strengih, ofthe Orang Qtan. I will trespass upon your attention by relating one ofthe moat ex¬ traordinary, at the aame limc one of the best at- esied, which I heard while at Batavia: Lieuten ant Shoch of the Dutch East India Army was on a march with a small detachment of troops and coolies on tfae southern coast of Borneo ; he faad encamped on one occasion, during the noon¬ day faeat, on tfae banks of one of the small tribu¬ taries of the Baiigarmassin. The lieutenant had with hira his domestic establishment, which included Au daughter, ti playful and interstiug Ihtlc girl of tbe age of thirteen.
One day, while wandering in lhe jungle be yond the prescribed limits of the camp, and huving, Irom ihe oppressive heat, losaeued hej- garments and thrown them offalmo»t to nudity, tfae beauty of faer person excited the notice ofan prang Utan, who sprang upon her and carried her off. Her pittrcing screams rang through the foreat to the ears ofher duzing protectora, and roused every man in the carap The swift bare- fuuied coolies were loremost in pursuit; and now thc cry rings in the agonized father's eara that his dDughter ia devoured by a binaiang—again that an Orang Uiaa has carried her off—he rushes, half frenzied, with the whole company to the thicket from whence the screams proceed¬ ed, and there, among the topmost limbs of an enormous banyan, the faiher beholds his daugh¬ ter, naked, bleeding and struggling in the grasp ofa poweriul Orang Utan, who held her tightly yet dasily with one arm, while he sprang lightly from limb to limb, as if wholly unencumbered.— It was in vain to think of shooting the monster, so agile was he. The Dyak coolies, knowing the habits of tfae Orang Utan, and knowing that he will always plunge, into the nearest stream when hard pressed, began a sysiem oruperations to drive him to tbe water; lhey set up a great shout, throwing missiles of all kinds and agitating the underbrush, while some proceeded to ascend the tree. By the redoubled exertions of thd whole company, the monster waa grad uuly driv¬ en toward the water, yet still holding tigfatly to the poor.girl. ,At laat».tliomocsier and fue vic¬ tim wero seen on an outstretching limb,, over¬ hanging the etream; the coolies, who iare among the expertest swimmers inthe world, immedi¬ ately lined the banks, the soldiers continued the outcries and throwing of missiles. He clasped his priie more tightly, took a survey of the waier, and ofhis upward gazing enemiea, and then leaped into the flood below ; he had hardly touched lhe water, ere fifty resotuie swimmers plunged in pursuit—as he rises, a dozen human arms are reached out toward him, ho is grasped others lay hold upon the insensible girl, tfae Orang Utan used both arme to defend, and after lacerating the bodiea ofsome ofihe cooliea wuh hia powerful nervous claws, finally succeeded in diving beyond the reach ofhis pursuers, and in escaping down tite stream, wfaile the bleeding, insensible Lcdafa was restored to the arras of her father and nurses, in whose hands she was ultimately restored to consciousness, strength and heallh once raore. This savage version of the classic story ot Pluto and Proserpine is well autheuticated, and tfae girl, now a grown-up woman, is living at Ambonya, in the Moluccas."
