TEIE HEIRS OFCOL DAyY


ID, a CROCKETT.
We notice with pleasure that the committee on
Public Lands in the House of Representatives
has reported a BILL donating one league of land
TO thesheirs ofCol DaVy Crockett, who fell SO
Eglorio1sly at the Alamo, in defense of Texan
independents. 1t is grsf6cationfor us toknows
that we were the first to call attention to the
fact that the widow and surviving children of
one of our bravest and noblest revolutionary he
roes, were residing in the State in INDECENT cir
fcumstanees Nearly twelve months ago we
made an appeal in their behalf % the generosity
and gratitude of the State. We believed then
! that it was only necessary toilets Texas Eegis-
lature know that the family Of -Dayy Crockett
was among US, needy and poor, to secure them
ample relief. We have not been mistaken
in our estimate of their generous impulses We
soon hope 70 see the bill pass without q dissen-
ting voice Such tribute will show that Texas
treasures the memories of those patriot heroes
who so nobly offered up their lives on the altar
OF her independence. On that honored list the
name Of Davy Crockett stands first and most glo-
rious 7e'.s
We shall never forget the last time we saw
him. Itwasin the fall of 1885, While en- route
for the Alamo, he sojourped few days with
the father ofthe writer, his old personal friend
then residing in Red River county Thecrack-
| ing dawn.of the revolution had just commenced
doubts and misgiUngs prevailed the public
mind The odds against US were truly fearful,
and macy thought the enterprise hopeless and
rash. Not SO with Davy Crockett. lie knew no
such word as fail, and harbored no dout or mis-
giving as to the glorious result We remember
his words ofhope and encouragement that ami
mated the most responding hearts; the visions
iof glory in which he inlulged; the pictures of a
happy, prosperous and glorious future which he
drew of the future Republic Ieseemed to rev.
| ell by anticipation Of the glorious strife which
awaited him. and to snuff the battle fromafar off.
Heis painted before US now as he appeared to
our youthful mind-his muscular form tower
ing to its majestic height, his kinding eye fash
ling with excitement, and his manly bosom
swelling with emotion as he dwelton the coming
contest, and with his sanguine temperament adj.
hitting no doubts pointed out successful and
4 glorious termination to the revolution, and a
happy and prosperous career to the Republic.
I No forebodign warned him of his impending
fate, but he laughed to Scorn all ideas of harm
danger to himself The last word we ever
heard from Davy Crockett, as he mounted on
his HORSE with his faithful rifle on his shoulder,
were memorable aud characteristic: II am as
good for Santa Annals scalp as nine pence is
fora dram. L'alLas (7srae) Herald

Breakers Ahead!

1t would not-after ail-be surprising if our
gruff friend, John Bull, should soon find him
self in Il much uplier difficulty" with his
mighty unsartan" ueighbor across the chan
nel-Louis Napoleon-than any he happens to
have at present, with Brother Jonathan.
There are sigus in that direction already
and not the least significant among them, per-
haps, are the following remarks of the ASsem-
6Lee Rationale, touching certain defensive
works Just now in course Of construction at
Portsmouth:
"If even the approaching conclusion of a
peace is not quite assured, IL mag be demanded
in the face of what danger those works are
being constructed Assuredly the Russian
squadron, now buried in the harbOr of Sebas-
tOpol, was never a menace to the British coasts,
and the two remaining Russian sQuadrons
which still float at Cronstadt and HelsingtOrs
have shown that their ambition wisely consists
in defence, and not in attack. A war between
England and the United States-a war which
is by no means probable, notwithstanding the
passing difficulties of the momenl-would in
no case expose the powerful squadron Of Great
Britain 10 be braved in their ports by the
American navy. 1t is in vain that we search
tor the enemy against whom j: IS now ques-
ton OF defending Portsmouth"
Ii may he ''demdHded'-mark that! The
relative POSITIONS of France and England, to-
day, are greatly changed, iudeed-lf it is come
to this--that Great Britain dare not build a
