The Express ought to know better, but prob
ably does not, than to assert that Gov. Sc ward
ever vetoed an act providing for the Registration
of Voters. He signed such bill when passed
by the Wing Legislature Of 1889, and so it be-
came slaw; but the next Democratic Legislature
repealed it. Is there anything The Express

of the few we know, were We permitted to

would ell an octave of thousand pages with
wild tales of truth, far more strange than
fiction. The following clipped from one of
our exchanges is a specimen
A very interesting and romantic incident
was related by Rev Mr. Fontaine in one of
his recent lectures at the Richmond Athe-
naeum. Speaking of the early history of
Texas, he gave an account of Gen. Long
effort to revolutionize that country in 1919.
Gen. Long served under Gen. jackson in
the Seminole war, and at the battle of New
Orleans. He married when % years of
age, celebrated beauty and heress of
Nashville, only 16 years old, When he
formed the design to invade Texas. Mrs.
Long entered fully into his plans, and plac-
ed at his disposal her immense wealth.
With this he armed and equipped 800 men.
entered the country, and was everywhere
successful.
Near the Gulf coast he formed fortif-
cation where he established his head quar-
ters. He was elected President of the Re-
public--a full government organized At
that time Iturbde was overrunning Mexico
with the design of making himself supreme
ruler of that State. Being jealous of the
success and power of Gen. Long. he pro-
posed to him, through an agent, that they
should unite their forces, which would ena-
BILE them to strengthen and confirm their au
thority--the one over Mexico, the other
over Texas.
Gen. Long unwisely needed the traitor
Gus proposition. Before leaving the fort he
assigned to his wife Is men, with directions
to hold the place until his return. He soon
after with the remainder of his small army
reached the headquarters of Gen. Iturbide,
who as soon as he got possession of his rival
caused him to be assassinated. Time passed
on. Mrs. Long heard nothing of the sad
fate of her husband The Is men under
her charge became dissatisfed-provision
were we'll nigh exhausted, and they became
clamorous to return to the States" She
told them that Gen. Long had directed her
to remain until his return. and that she
should do So ''dead or alive"
Every man deserted her to retrace their
steps to their homes, leaving her with an
infant and nurse, young negro girl Of
about II or IA years of age. the sole occu-
pants of the fertilization. She kept the
flag of stars and stripes floating from
the walls. fired the morning and eve
ming gun and beat the daily reveille The
Mexicans and Indians thought the place was
still garrisoned. and kept at respectful dis
tance. Time sped. A year elapsed, and
still no tidings of her gallant husband reach
ed her lonely abode. During all this space
the had subsissed by gathering oysters from
the beach, and shooting birds which few
about the fort In 1921 Gen. Austin inva-
ded Texas. and seeing flag floating from
forti6cation near the Gulf supposed the
noted Laitte had established himself there.
He sent in flag of truce, and what was
his surprise to find this place, in the midst
of inimical Mexicans and savage Indians,

owe MIGHT HAVE BEEN"

There is whisper ringing clear
In every sleepless listeners ear
A whisper of but scanty cheer
And heard distinctlier every year
''You might have been-you might have BEEN"
Breathing throughout the hush of night,
1t shuns companionship and light;
A knell, blessing and blight,
We profit if we hear Alright
:'You might have heen--you might have been."
AS memory bids the past to arise,
The soaring hopes that swept the skies,
Zach in its narrow grave now lies)
We hear. and not with fearless eyes,
''You might have been-you might have been"
We might have won the need of fame,
Essayed and reached wortnier aim
Had more of wealth and less of shame,
Nor heard, as from tongue of flame,
''You might have been-you might have been.'

one of the wise men of Greece, proposed to
him in rapid succession the following diff

readers can judge for themselves
What is the oldest of all things?
God--because He always existed.
What is the most beautiful
The world-because it is the work of
God
What is the greatest of all things?
Space-because it contains all that is Gre

What is the quickest of all things?
Thought-because in moment it can fly

What is the strongest?
Necessity-because it makes men face
all the dangers of life. ts.-=-
