Cults The shipment of corn to Ualveston from this place has commenced, several parties having engaged iu the business. Bo far all the corn that has been shipped has been in the shuck, which is a little strange. Ccrtiviuly it would provjo more profitable to ship it shelled than in the shuck, mid then the shelling of it herein Austin or on the farms where it was grown would give employment to the unemployed. In the ear but about time huudic and fifty bushels can be shipped iu car, which costs $55 to Gal veston, or a fraction less than sixteen rents a bushel, which is certainly a pretty exorlituut price. Those who ship grain should always give the pref ereucet and advantages to home see tion.

Corn has to lie shelled somewhere, and it may as well be shelled where it is grown as elsewhere. It costs no more, and then the freight rates per bushel would le less.

Ml-staxo "Wink. Mr. William Kobs, of Rose Hill, makes the statement in the Houston 7V'kvj-mthathc has every year Bince 1850 made wines from the mustang grape, and that he bow has hand wines from every year of hit various vintages. His samples are pronounced excellent, being well fer mented, possessing a fruity flavor, and resembling the Marsala sherry of South Europe, pure and not beady, and not so light as the ordinary clarets and catawbas.

The mustang wine is an excellent dinner beverage, and it should come into favor here and elsewhere as a medicinal wine. Texas, no doubt, is destined to become a great wine State, and the wonder is that bo little attention is now given to its manufacture. Never has the grape yield becu better all over the State than the present season, and now, whilo business is so generally stagnant, would seem to be the most opportune time for experiment ing and engaging in the uiufaclurc of mustang wine. Mr. Kobs sells his wiuo at $1.50 a gallon, and at this price, when the grapes cost nothing but the gathering, thorc must be plenty of margin for good profits.

Talking about the great Missouri wine depots, why not also have in Austin the tjreat Texas and mustang wine depots. A Tasnerv. Messrs. Alfred S.nith aud John Hancock have taken steps for the establishment ot a tannery in this city, an enterprisa vtry much iieeded and no less important than any other that could be engaged in. They have leased from the city, for $1200 a year for twenty-five years, the old ice house property, below the river bridge, and so soon as all the papers arc made out a.d properly signed they will be gin business.

The process by which they will tan is new, but it has becu thoroughly add satisfactorily tested and witnessed by Mr. Smith, who, with Mr. Hancock, puts his money into the enterprise sanguine that he will ike it rayiiK business at the same lime, a great benefit to this communi ty. Hides bought by them on Mon day uioruing will be couverled in to good leather the same week, and perhaps the hide that was sold to thein by the farmer on Mouday will be worn homo on his feet Situr- lay night. We arc glad that our old citizens see the necessity of embarking in such enterprises.

Unless we all en courage home manufactories in every way possible tho shriukago ia values aud the decline in rents and business must necessarily continue. Every manufactory started iu Austin will give employment to many operatives, and will attract trade to Austin. A Mad Catamount on toe Ram voK. Major Nance, who lives twenty miles southwest of Austin, on Blanco liver, reports an exciting contest he had with a full grown catamount ct his place on Sunday last. The animal waa first seen by a colored woman jumping the fence aad approaching the bouse.

She gave the alarm, and Mrs. Nance rushed to the front deor to see about the children; they were not in sight, but the animal was, aud Mrs. Nance hardly had time to pass through a hall and into the dining-room with out being pounced upon by the animal which entered one door as she passed out the other door, which she thoughtfully closed behind her. Just at this moment Major Nance appeared upon the scene, and he closed the other door, and Mr. Catamount waa caged In the dining-room, his tolo companion being a spotted pup, presented to JIjr Nince by Mr.

Kluge. The animal immediately pounced upon the unfortunate purp and tore it all to pieces iu an instant. By this time Major Nance had gotten round to a window with a gun, aud Mr. Catamount was dispatched at a single shot, and peace aad quiet was restored in that house. Before the animal entered the house it bit a dog and two bogs, and Major Nance says that he ia satisfied the catamount had the hydrophobia, The animal was nearly as large as a medium sized dog, and it had a very large head and a short tail.

f. The Major thinks from it leas appearance it had ben mad in the woods, for several days. 5 201 81 472 10 463 110 The Roads. Citizens of Austin who have gone out to look at the work le- ing doBc.undcr the superintendence of Capt. Champion, on the Burnet road in what is known as the Stringer and Hancock the greatest sur prise and admiration at what has been so soon accomplished.

Those lane's, two mile 3 long, very narrow and in places low and wet, have long been held in holy horror by up-country people wishing to do business with Austin. But the day for complaints about this prt of the Burnet road has at last been left lehind. The entire lane baa been widened to a distance ot thirty tivfeetf and a deep ditch for tie full length of the lane has been dug on either side of the road, the dirt having been thrown to the center of the road, which was made very rounding. And now the entire surface of the road for a width of about twenty feet is being covered with broken rock taken from the surface of the ground round about, aud this being covered with lime rock taken from the bed of the International Railroad hard by, which, after it has been traveled upon for a short time, becomes as hard -aud not as a stone sidewalk. Tlv uiac-iaamizir of these two miles now al-half done, and the bi.

eg rapidly coi 1-ted. Capt. Champion i attenlirg to the lowest and wors places first, so as to make sure, doubt, of getting them properly fixed before the funds alieady raised become exhausted. If money couli be raised sutlicient to macadamizs, id places needing such work the most, fifteen or twenty miles of this road, and as much more of the Fredericksburg road, there is no doubt but that a very large trade could be attiacted to this city which otherwise will go to Rouad Rock. The property owners and business man should do their best to enable Capt.

Champion to keep at work with a heavy force for the next three or four months. All that is necessary to be done to improve the road through the cedar brake, as we hear, is the chop ping dowu here and there of a tree or stump, and the removal of rocks which I crop out in tlie roml, making it out- lundishly rough aud hard on teams. The committee should tuke steps at once to raise more money, and to keep the good work moving along. Those feeling any Uesi'atcy about subscribing would perhaps have all doubts removed if they would ride out and witness wh it is being done. Manor Item.

The man who could not "be elected dog peltcr" was in town Saturday. Judge Wiloern makes a good justice of the peace. All are well pleased with him, save thieves and other violators of the law. Jack R.uiinc, of whom mention was made some time ago, was put under a $300 boud, in dclault of which he was committed to jail. Alleu Gradington, charged with the theft of a to a-, was put under a $250 bond last Saturday, conditioned that he slioulil in ike hi-t appearance at the next term of the district court of Travis county.

Manor was an unusually lively place last Saturdiy, it being election day. The only man who seemed to be taking much interest on the whisky side was a saloon-keeper. We presume be felt "like one who treads alone some- banquet hall deserted," etc. There is a merchant in Manor who claims that the "assignee," "bankrupt" and "at cost'' men of Austin do not under sell or get ahead of him. He says that he tells the people that he steals his goods, and, therefore, can sell "cheaper than the cheapest." He has a hatchet to dispose of.

Where is "Truthful James." Him of the "Austin bar," aud Surn-uef 1J C. (not the one who lived before Christ), of the same bar (it was election day at Manor and they were not of those at the bar of that place as they were not sufficiently acquainted to get into the back door), went to Manor Saturday in a "uiachiue" drawn by a sore back, lame and bony beast, to try a case in the justice court. They fussed aud fumed nearly all day, and walked back home part of the way. The one who represented the defendant got one dollar cash down for his services, and the other, who represented the State, got home after the time some get "Oh! how came you so, my dear," sober, with "narry" a dollar iu his well-worn pocket. Under the circumstances, both of them thought that the way to Manor was "a rocky road to travel." Wink It is a little Strang; that so many men and boys will loaf around the streets of Austin week after week and month after month complaining that they cn get nothing to do when there are opportunities of making something by going to the country and manifesting a little industry.

Everywhere along the streams the woods are full of fine, large grapes, aud they who would could make thousands of gallons of nice wine within the next few weeks, which woeld readily sell in the city at from $1 to $1.50 per gallon. From $200 to $500 made by gripe gathering du ing the dull summer months, when there is nothiug to be done in the city, would go a great way towards getting a home in Austin for those who are crying "nothing to do," "high rents," "hard times," etc Many spend weeks in camp life during the summer just for pleasure and to improve impaired health, and some ot these might make suoh trips profitable as well as pleasant if they would but try. And after they finished grape gathering and wine making then they could continue their employments in the forests by gathering pecans, which always 'command ready sale at from $1.25 to $3 a bushcL Certainly so long as there are opportunities for men, woaien and children to make from one to five dollars a day, clear of all expenses, by gathering grapes and pecans for the next four or five months, there is no occasion for shouting "hard times." Only those who are trying to do business in the city when there ia no business to be done are experiencing "hard times." Let all such change their base and go at something that promises more certain reward and less probability of certain failure and complete bankruptcy. High rents and licenses and costly living are confined to town life, and he who goes gathering grapes and pecans will for a time have no rent or license bills presented to him, and if content to live in a tent or a shanty for a few months and subsist on bread and meat, tea and coffee, milk, butter and eggs, lie could maintain a whole family oa fifty cents a day. Tanneries.

Since Mr. Alfred Smith and Hon. John Hancock have taken steps to establish a tannery on the bank of the river, east of the Ave nue, they have encountered, naturally. some fjom citizens in that part of the city, who asseit, and co doubt conscientiously believe, that the establishment of such a business would depreciate the value of their property and render that part of the city uninviting and obnoxioiM. Tim is aques tion about which a gor.

1 deal can be said cn both si.fes, and about wl.irh no final decision will p-rhap ever be made. It must be admitted that co town can ever become a city of any great importance without manufactories, and the towns that get such enterprises, must allow them to locate somewhere. That the smell from tan ncrics and paper milN, the noise from planing aud grist mills, the smoke from foundries, furnacrs ami gss estab lishments, ice and cloth are offensive to some will not be di- but st' i 1 we cannot do without of the kind, and they mist be allowed to locate somewhere. In Pittsburgh ladies cannt-t walk ths streets the second time in the same white dress unless it ha3 been put through a wash tub aud a pattn'. wringer, because of the smoke from the iron and coal mills, and yet Pittsburgh could not thrive without those institutions, and there the ladies walk the streets just as they do elsewhere, and what some suffer from the smoke, the din and the rattle, is gained by wash erwomen, dealers in lily white and the commercial men of the place.

Ia near ly every large city, whole districts are almost entirely mouopoliz-jd by manufactories, and often packcrRs that "smell to heaven" arc located where thousands live and throng. It is alto gether probable that the lower part of Austin along the river front will sooner or later be given up to manufactur ing purposes indeed, a pretty good start has been male in th'n way already. And-while those who own property there now may for a lime sm-tain some loss aud inconvenience, yet in the long run they may be pecuniarily benefited by a growing demand for ground ofcvhich to establish mills and manufactories. Possibly they may not lore a dollar from the beginning, for while some people would not desire to rent houses ia that locality, others would. Certainly operatives would not hesitate to rent houses near their business.

Every city iu the Union has tanucrics, foundries, milU ami manufactories of all descriptions, aud Austin should not reject them. Indeed, we cannot afford to do it. Flouk Consumption. The amount mt flour consumed in this county we cannot state, but estimating that there arc five thousand families in the county, and that each, family uses five barrels of flour per aunum, the amount would be 25,000 barrels. For the past two or three years the price of flour has averaged $11 a barrel, and before that as much as $13.

Until the present time all the flour, or very nearly all of it, that has been used in this county and this section of the State, has been brought hero from Missouri, Kansas aud Northern Texas, so that we can safely estimate that heretofore we have been sending abroad $275,000 in cash annually for the fkuir that has been consumed. Perhaps as much more flour has been brought here I Austin merchants for shipment up country, which swells the amount of money drained from this county, and city for fl jur to $550,000 annually. No wonder, then, that the complaint is so general about the scareity of money. But this is not all. Vast sums of money have always been sent and still being sent abroad for bacon, hams, lard, salt, leather, cotton and woolen goods, and many other things which could and shculd be raised here, and the money thus drained from among us might be kept iu circulatiou at home.

Just how long the people of this city, this county and this section of the State will continue to throttle home industry and para'yze business remains to be seen. Perhaps heretofore they have been powerless to stop such asuicidal policy, or at least they were not so well prepared to stop it as they are at the present time. So far as sending abroad half a million dollars annually for flour and as much more for bacon, hams and lard ia concerned, that can be stopped with a suddenness that would cause an instantaneous flutter among the business men of St. Louis and New Orleans, if the people of Western Texas, one aud all, would but make up their minds to do it. And if our merchants here and in the interior would but do their duty'tbis important event could be ac complished at once.

Never has there bee a such crops of wheat raised in Western Texas as the present season, and the quality is equal to the best raised further north. We have mills in this city and adjoining counties with capacity sufficient to grind all the flour necessary for home consumption. Now, why should we send abroad for the flour'we need, thereby paying tribute to producers and dealers in distant States and to wealthy railroad corporations for bringing the flour to us, when we have it here at home, raised on'our own lands, and ground by our own citizens! Why, the asks, do our merchants continue to deal in, and our own people continue to use, St. Louis flour at $5 to $5.50 per hundred, when they can get an excellent article of the home product at $4 to Is it not contrary to good sense and all reason that the people should pay more than is necessary for the flour they use, and that our merchants should continue to drain the country of funds, thereby paralyzing business by sending abroad for flour I Fran whence springs this folly It must be because our people have not stopped to reason. A meeting of merchants in this city, and the passage of a few resolutions on the subject, would be a very good wsy of bringing about a revolution regarding the suicidal policy of importing flour.

Let the board of trade talk the matter over. And about sending abroad for bacon, lard and bams. Whit are our farmers going to do with, the forty, fifty and sixty bushels of corn to the acre they have made this year? Would it be wise in them to haul it to town to fill a meagre demand at twenty to twenty-five cents a bushel, or let it rot where it stands in the fields! Had they not better convert it into bacon, hams and lard, and thereby supply the country with what it has heretofore gotten from abroad at a cost of perhaps not leas than half a million dollars every year? If these things had been done for the past three years, then no doubt the circulating medium in this and a few adjoining counties would beat least three million dollars greater than it is, and the howl about hard times and no money would not echo about every man's door. And if we had also here and there foundries, woolen and cotton the situation would lie all the better. Let the people of this section turn over a new leaf, and that leaf should be turned over at oace and forever.

For the benefit of the many readers of the Statesman who are in daily habit of handling large numbers of thousand-dollar notes it may be said that the counterfeit is on tbe issue of 1862, letter but as it is said that only expert can detec. it, it will be well to refuse all thousand-dollar greenbacks and demand payment ia the dollar of the daddies. llivr rieil-TIVI-I.

Now, if we should tsko the common plants and shrulkS and tram t'jem with skill and care, they will give as much pleasure to the eve as tho r.ioro costly adorn ments. Little things of a rustic nature often please most. Oae or two com mon English honeys ickles, a wood bine', or a clematis, planted ner a doorway and trained over an nrcb, with a few potsof bright 11 jwers underneath. will give a face to the most humble cottage.

Now, we believe that a home on a farm is capable of being made not only endurablo but attrac tive to the voun and it is to the in terest of all parties that this thing bo done, for our children are growing up and will soon be beyond our mlluence; then, how much mere pleasaut will their memories of home be, if we make our homes and surroundings nioio beautiful. There is an air of rustic sweetness even in those small wire vases ded with fresh grenm moss and placed bout the grounds; these are cheap and i-'ni-ple ornaments, besides many other do-vices thtt will suggest themselves to persons of taste. But oiiie will say that those are little things. We know that the'se arc little things, and that the world is made up of little things; but they arc mighty iu their inlluenee upon tho household, and no family ctn well unora to do without them.
