Address all communications to GOLD LEAF, Henderson, N. C THURSDAY, AUG. 28, 1WM). HON. F. M.SIMMONS. A few weeks ago Mr. Simmons came out in a card withdrawing from the Congressional race, because he was willing, if there was a man more avail able, to retire from the field. Mr. Simmons is patriotic and would not enter a contest that there would be a scramble over, thereby endangering the election of the Democratic nomi nee of this district, which is so close that every good man must stand shoulder to shoulder to win success. But the people of the 2d Congres sional district are unwilling for such a man as Mr. Simmons to retire, and there is a tremendous pressure through out the entire district that he must be the standard bearer in this contest, j There has been a great enquiry, who is the man? and the answer comes back, Simmons! He has been tried ; he has been true to the Democrats ; he has been true to the farmers and to every class of our people, against the great monopolies of the North fostered by the high tariff, that causes the bag ging trust and other such iniquitous combinations. The great majority of the farmers of this district feel grateful to Hon. F. M. Simmons for the strong fight he made in Congress for them against the infamous bagging trust, which caused this trust and other tariff-bred monopolists to send large sums of money in the district in the last cam paign to defeat him for re-election, and which did cause his defeat. They feel it to be their duty to send Sim mons back to Congress to again battle bravely for their rights. They know that he can do far more lor them than a man who has never had any experi ence in legislative halls. The fore going are a few of the reasons why they favor Mr. Simmons. Therefore the legions of friends of Hon. F. M. Simmons have determined to place his name before the conven tion, which meets in Kinston on Sep tember 3d, feeling certain that if the nomination is made by a harmonious convention he will not refuse to ac cept. We urge the friends of Mr. Simmons to attend the convention and see to it that he is nominated. We feel confi dent that he will be nominated har moniously, if not by acclamation, and that he will lead the Democrats to vic tory in the coming campaign. Kins ton Free Press. There is no doubt in our mind that Simmons is the most available man to nominate. He has a stronger follow ing among both Democrats and Re publicans (he can carry many negro votes throughout the district) than any other man whose name has been men tioned. Nominate Simmons and vic tory will be ours. SENATOR VANCE. He is Endorsed and His Return to the Senate Urged by Alliance Men. Here is a specimen of the many resolutions adopted by Sub-Alliances throughout the State, endorsing Sen ator Vance. Thunder Swamp Al liance, No. 444, of Greene county, D. E. Stevens, President, and L. W. Parker, Secretary, at a recent meet ing, unanimously passed the following preamble and resolution : Whereas, That in Zeb. B. Vance our people have always found a true and faithful servant, one who we be lieve hath always" stood up honestly for his people, either in war or in peace ; and further we do not think that he can be bribed or influenced by gain; and while it is human to err, we may consider ourselves entitled to a just criticism, but an unjust and un wise counsel will but weaken our own ranks and raise enemies from the out side, who are to-day faithful allies to our principles, for these reasons be it Resolved, That in our Senator Vance our people have always had a faithful leader, a wise counselor, and a man whom we believe would rather die for his people, than see any part of them enslaved'bv mononolies. Na- tional banks or any other sclass of combines; and we further resolve that we will stand by Z. B. Vance and ask our next Legislature to again elect him U. S. Senator, provided we see no further failure to duty. One of Dr. J. II.

Wo copy from the State Chronicle the following items about the State convention held la;;t week. It says: The first nominating work was the nomination for Chief Justice of the Supreme (ourt. R. II. Ramie, Esq., nominated Hon. A. S. Merriinon, the present ChL'f Justice, to succeed himself and tmphsied his nomination by an elo quent speech of five minutes. Hon. Willis R. Williams, of Pitt, arose and said, "In the name of the farmers of North Carolina, in the name of the lawyers.in the name of the workinginen, in the name of everybody, I inoe that Hon. A. S. Merrimon be nominated for Chief Jus tice by acclamation." The motion was unanimously adopted. JUDGE CLARK FOR ASSOCIATE JUSTICE. Hon. C. M. Cooke, in an eloquent speech, nominated Judge Walter Clark for Associate Justice of the Supreme court ; on motion of Mr. J. M. Mew borne, of Lenoir, the nomination was made by acclamation. JUDGES OF THE SUPERIOR COURT. Mr. R. M. Furman moved that this convention do now ratify the nomina tions made by the various Judicial dis trict conventions, as follows: For 1st District George H. Brown, Jr., of Beaufort. For 2nd District Henry R. Bryan, of Craven. For 4th District Spier Whitaker, of Wake. For 5th District R. W. Winston,of Granville. For 6th District E. T. Boykin, of Sampson. For 7th District James D. Mclver, of Moore. For 8th District R. F. Armfield, of Iredell. For 10th District John Gray Bynum, of Burke. For nth District Wm. A. Hoke, of Lincoln. The recent Democratic convention of Lenoir county passed resolutions unanimously endorsing Hon. F. M. Simmons for Congress. This was done by delegates from the entire people. It shows that the sentiment of this county is for Simmons. It is our candid opinion that if the senti ment of the county was truly repre sented Mr. Mewborne would have no to exceed one-eighth of the vote oft Lenoir county in the Congressional convention and Hon. F. M. Simmons would have the balance. Kinston Free Press. And this, too, in Mewborne s own county. Where he is best known the people say he will not do, as plainly indicated above. Simmons is the man to send to Congress froirl this district, and he ought to be nominated by ac clamation. Says the Washington Progress, and we fully agree with it : Hon. F. M. Simmons is being en dorsed by many good Democrats in the Second District. At a mass meet ing held in La Grange recently he was unanimously endorsed. The only hope of the District is to nominate Simmon?. JjKTTKK FKOM MEXICO. Dr Cheatham iive an Interesting Account of His Travel in Texas and Mexico. Hotel Hidalgo,! Monterey, Mexico, vr. i:5th, 1) P. M., 1890. J , KniTou (Sold Leaf: As I have about two hours more here, according to prom ise, I take advantage of it to write you a hasty letter. I will commence by refer ring to San Marcus and its surroundings; I then San Antonio, and lastly Laredo and Monterey. I am traveling in company with A. W. Rowland, of Wilson, N. C, and II. H. Rowland, of Tyler, Texas. We arrived at San Marcus at 9 p. m., 11 th inst. On reaching our hotel and making application for supper and lodg ging we were politely informed by mine host that inasmuch as our train was 40 minutes behind time we could not be ac commodated ; that his hotel was run on time if the railroad was not. He was kind euough, however, to show us a res taurant some distance away where the inner man could be satisfied regardless of railroad time. Altera refreshing night's sleep we made an early start to see the wonders of this place and its surroundings. The envi rons of San Marcus furnish many curious and interesting objects. The assembly grounds within the city limits comprise the slope and summit of a beautiful wooded eminence, overlooking San Mar cus river and city, and a limitless sweep of majestic prairie stretching Southward. The grounds are laid off into walks and drives with beautiful fountains, lakelets, evergreens, vines and umbrageous trees of native growth, all within a stone's throw of tlu river, whose wonderful beauty I spoke of in a letter to Arch, which I requested to be handed to yon, thus ' killing two birds with one stone," as it were. Once at the head of the lake where the water gushes up out of its bottom, we" guide our boat over the source of the river. Here seventy feet below vou can see large volumes of water gushing up through openings in the rocks, formmcr a river as large as the Xeuse near Raleigh. With uimculty we maintained. our posi tion long enough to fully i-v-alize the beauty and magnitude of the situation. No iniud can conceive the beauties of this place; no pen however gifted can de scribe it ; no artist with artistic skill of earthly conception can paint it. We stand upon its banks with feelings of profound admiration and with heads un covered and ask if this is a dream a vision or a reality, and then realize the fact that it is only a touch of the brush of the Great Artist of the universe be fore whom all from the humblest peasant in his squalid hut to the mightiest king upon his throne should with reverence most humbly bow. After partaking of an excellent repast with mine host we boarded the train for San Antonio. It was with difficulty that we succeeded in getting seats. The train consistxl of thirteen coaches crowded to their utmost capacity, with another section or train of equal capacity imme diately in the rear also crowded, ell going to San Antonio to the State (Dem ocratic) convention to be held on the 12th. We arrived nt San Antonio at noon to find the hotels crowded to over flow. It is estimated that there were ten thousand strangers in the city. Hogg is the prominent candidate for the nomina tion for Governor, and the universal cry in the hotels and on the streets is "Hogg" "Hoirtr" "Hoesr." followed with hog-calling and hog-sqealiug and mueous yens ior nogg. 1 presume Hogg will receive the.nomination bv acclama tion and consequently the next Governor of Texas will be a Hogg. The poor Is raelites regardless of their creed forbid dingthem to eat swine, will have to swal low Hogg for the next two years. Dinner over we go forth to see the places of interest of this historic city. First we made our way to the govern ment barracks. I will pass them by as they will not be of much interest to your readers most of whom have visited Fort ress Monroe, and have an idea how Uncle Sam do- things down there. The only difference is one is a land fortress and the other water; the exterior is very different but the grounds and barracks inside are very much the same. I will now speak of that historic old forties .the Alamo around which cluster many sad memories of the past, and of which I wrote hurriedly in my previous letter.. The Alamo ;ts it stands to-dujr presents but a shadowy outline of what it was. The walls that once surrounded it are gone and only the original wails of the mission proper remain. History tells us that in March. 18.'1J, this fort was held by the Texan patriot Travis with 170 men, for . 12 days against 4,000 picked troops under the immediate com mand of Mexico's greatest general, Santa Anna. On the morning of the 12th day with bands playing the "Hymn of the Dead," the Alamo was assaulted by the entire force and after a most desperate and determined hand to hand resistance by the handful of brave and heroic de fenders the Alamo fell. The enemies were in the court. The Texans were lit-" erally cut to pieces, yet not one fell un avenged. The court ran with blood, but the conflict did not cease until every one of the noble band lay a bleeding sacrifice upon his country's altar. "Death and Santa Anna held the place." By order of Santa Anna the bodies of the Texans were thrown in a pile and burned. This was the funeral pyre, while the one thous and and six hundred dead Mexicans were taken to the cemetery for burial. As we enter the yard we observe the spot where David Crocket fell, and about him laid a score of bodies to show his work. On the left as we gain admittance is the room occupied by the gallant Bowie who was too weak to rise from his bed. He shot with his revolver two fiends who were preparing to butcher him. The city of San Antonio is beautifully located, its long axis being North and South. The San Antonio river courses the whole length of the eity. The river in itself is wonderful. It runs from a se ries of boiling springs three miles from the city and runs directly through being spanned by 13 bridges. With a population of forty thousand San An tonio presents a strange spectacle. Side by side with the old adobes which are rapidly giving way to the new order of things, stands the palatial residence of the rich merchant and the cotton king. Side by side wit h the old historic churches and missions massive modern Christian temples rear their spires high heaven ward. I could say much about the sin gular population but time will not per mit. It is simply cosmopolitan. All nationalities are represented, the Amer ican, Spaniard, Irish, English, Mexican, Indian, halfbreed and negro. Weiiojv are off to Laredo 200 miles away on the Rio Grande river. The country through which we pass for about 40 miles is in a state of partial cultiva tion ; the remaining distance is nothing but an open prairie, with occasional ranches, occupied by ranchmen and their cow boys. The growth upon these vast plains consists of cactus, muskeet and chaparal with an occasional field of small live oaks. Laredo the " Gate City" as it is called, is on the North bank of the Rio Grande, and has a population of eight thousand. Just across the river is Neu eva Laredo, a Mexican city of four thous and. For a hundred mUes or more in every direction is a vast uncultivated prairie. I do not understand upon what these cities' growth and subsistance de pend. The railroad shops of the Mexi can & International are situated here. We get dinner and are off for this city (Monterey). Leaving Laredo the train runs for one hundred miles through a level and uncultivated section, until we reach Lampazas ; the country and scen ery now is noticeably fine. Billaldama is the next place of importance it being a large shipping station for tho famous mines of Gaudaoupe. From here on the character of the country improves until we arrive at Monterey where all kinds of plant life are wonderfully luxuriant. This city, situated at an altitude of 1,700 feet, is one of the most beautifully lo cated of Mexican cities. Built on the foot hills of the Sierra Madre, on its left is the most peculiar of all mountains, La fNlla, so named from its resemblance to a Spanish saddle. To the West is the Las Mitias. Behind the citv is the loftv mother range towering 4,000 feet above the plain. This city is in the most public valley of JNorthern Mexico. It has a pop ulation of 40,000. It has a fine cathe dral and an artistically beautiful piazza, and many curiously constructed build ings. .Near the city is the famous and historic Bishop's Palace formerly used for a garrison, and played a conspicuous part in the battle of Monterey; all of which you can gather from reading the history of the war with Mexico. From the Bishop's Palace we took a street car and wended our way through the nar row streets until again we reached the open country. Continuing our journey we were soon at the celebrated Topo Chico S firings. These springs are said to possess all the healing virtues ot the Hot Springs of Arkansas, and are fast becom ing noted as a health resort. From the Bishop's Palace one can overlook the valley of Monterey extending almost one hundred miles down between the moun tain ranges. This valley is in a high sfate of cultivation and is the source of the city's supply of vegetables aud fruits of all kinds. The merciful hand of Prov idence has bestowed on the Mexicans a magnificent laird abounding in resources of all kinds "a land where none ought to be poor, and where misery ought to be unknown;" a land whose products and riches of every kind are abundant and as varied as they are rich. It seems to be a country endowed to profusion with every gift that man can desire or envy ; all the metals from gold to lead ; every sort of climate from perpetual snow to tropical heat, and land of unconceiv able fertility. Tired and hungry we return to our hotel for dinner and rest. From 12 m. to i p. m. is called " siesta," or " nap in the middle of the day," all business being suspended during the hot period of the day. Dinner and siesta being over ve again sally forth to see the strange sights and curious people. After leaving the public squares every street is a photo graph of the one you have just left. The buildings one story high built of adobe with windows barricaded with stroncr iron grating and the streets being very narrow suggest the idea that you are passing through an immense penitenti ary. In the heart of the city is a large spring from which flows a stream closely approximating in size a river which is walled on each side with solid stone. It is about 30 feet wide and from 2 to 4 feet deep. Flowing through the most populous portion of the city its banks- present the appearance of an immense laundrv. It is a beautiful crystal stream so clear that you can see a pin at its bot tom ; at 5 p. in. its waters are crowded with bathers whose bathing suits are elaborate and extensive but not expensive, being an inheritance handed down from the dawn of creation (mother skin). In these pearly and crystal waters swimming and diviner these Mexican bathers remind you of a throng of immensely largevgolden frogs. As the night approaches and we wend our way back to our hotel through the narrow streets and over the still nar rower side walks crowded with a singular throng of Mexicans, Indians, Dagars, Spaniards and a few adventurous Amer icans, one can realize what a higher state of civilization will do for this people. As we approach the grand piazza, the centre of attraction, the Mexican's glory, we are struck with the immense throng seeking enjoyment in the rool and refreshing "I Made glorious some how by the announcement that notwithstanding thicker clothing will soon he in order, the price which we will have to pay this season is so low that it is a positive pleasure to contemplate it.

As I have only a few moments left me, you will pardon me Tor devoting them to the ladies of the places I have lately vis ited and at home.

It is the centre of wealth, education and intelli gence. She has furnished Texas with four Governors and will soon furnish another (Hogg). Her ladies are hand- ' some, graceful, refined and intelligent, and possessed of those qualities necessary to make home attractive and happy. But as I said before I am selfish enough to look to the Old North State for the perfection of womanhood. By the way, there are some North Carolina girls here on a visit. Miss Minnie Rowland, of our Henderson, and Misses Eva and Lonie Currin, of Oxford, and well do they rep resent the Old North State whose'ladies are noted for their refined and noble qualities and exquisite beauty, which is painted upon their cheeks in heavenly smiles, flows in their ringlets, charms in their voice, throbs in their breast, moves in their steps and mingles and shines in the graces of their love.
