Texas Intelligence.

The Houston Argus says that the Trinity at that |
place on the 18th was low and that large quantity
of cotton still upon its banks, and the planters
were anxousIy awaiting to have it transported to
market.
The Sherman Patriot says that several of their
young men have gone to the gold regions from that
place, and more are preparing to go by the overland
route. Quite number were in town on the 5th to
take the stages
The Dallas Herald states that the Arizona fever is
beginning to rage in that region, and many of their
young men are on the move.
The Herald notices the passing through that town
lately of number of emigrants with their negroes,
going to the lower counties.
A negro boy, about l6 years of age, named Peter,
was hung at GAINESVILLE, on the 9th ut., for the
murder of his mistress, a Mrs. Valentine.
| The Matagorda Gazette, of Saturday last, says:
| We have been shown sample of this cotton,
grown by Mr.. Cheesman on his prairie land in this
county 1t is said by those who know to be an ex-
cellent article. Mr.. G. planted two acres and al.
though be procured but half stand will realize two
hundred pounds of ginned cotton, We learn that be
has sold one hundred pounds l Of this cotton to
by himself, and the cylinders made of wood.
The San Antonio Texan, of the 18th, says:
| OF late we have had much cloudy weather, and
but little rain. We are now in need of rain for the
purpose of planting and this is about the season
that we generally expect it.
The same paper gives the following account of .
recent adventure with Indians
From Mr. Roam, who arrived with the San Diego
mail this week, we learn that the train near Fort
Quitman, on the Rio Grande, had slight brush with
Indians few days since. 1t seems that two of the
Mexcans in the employ Of ]. Dawson, while engaged
in guarding their mules, noticed something moving
in the tall grass. Surprising it to be colotes, they
took but little notice of it. Shortly an Indian caught
hold of one of the stake ropes, within few feet Of
one of the Mexcans, and cried boob !-evidently ex
pecng that the Mexicans would run; but in this he
was mistaken. The Mexican held his six-shootel
near the head of the Indian, and shot him dead or
the spot.
The other Indian in moment shot the Mexican
with three arrows, mounted horse, rode directly
through camp upon the run, aud as he passed per
son covered up with two blankets he seized both thu
blankets, STOPPING as he went, and escaped. We art
informed that some six Government mules wer,
driven off, and that the Indians crossed the Ri
Grande into Mexico.
This will give our readers at distance, who know
but little of the courage and horsemanship OF GU
frontier Indians, some faint idea; it will also shov
the necessity OF putting stop to this plundering
our frontier citizens by Indians who are harbored
safely ensconced Mexico. This may easily be done

Wash for Trees.

commend Or apple trees. The I've should b
as strong as we use it for soap. That is il
should be strong enough to bear up hens egg
50 that speck Of the egg may be barely seen
above the lye A wash of this kind will not
injure young trees in nursery, for we have
tried this for many years.
But the I've should not be suffered to stand
out in kettles to eyaporate, for it may thus
become too strong for the bark. We only
want it Strong enough to kill all kinds of lice,
and grubs, and borers, and moss that adheres
to the bark and checks the circulation Of the
sap.
Other washes are often recommended, but
none of them are equal to I've made from pot
ash or from wood ashes. When potash cannot
readily be had, wash with water and guam
tity of wood ashes thrown into the water may
be used. Some Of the ashes will stick to the
bark without injury.
Now is the time to apply this wash to apple
trees. Now, before having, look out for the
borer that has ruined thousands of trees. The
last Of June and the first of July will witness
the borer fly going fr0m tree to tree to deposit
her eggs. She does net like the smell of pot
ash, and she win try to avoid such trees as
have been washed-Mass. Plongkman

Uses of Ice.

In health no one ought to drink ice water,
for it has occasioned fatal inhammations of the
stomach and bowels, and sometimes sudden
death. The temptation to drink it is very
great in summer to useit with any safety
the person should take but single swallow
at = time, take the glass from the lips for half
q minute, and then another swallow, and so on.
It will be found that in this way it becomes
disagreeable after few mouthfuls.
On the other hand, ice itself may be taken
as freely as possible, not only without injury
but with the most striking advantage in dam
gerous forms Of disease. If broken in sizes of
. pea or bean, and swallowed as freely as
practicable, without much chewing or crash
ing between the teeth, it viii often be efficient
in checking various kinds of diarrhea, and has
cured violent cases Of Asiatic cholera.
A kind of cushion Of powdered ice kept to
the entire scalp, has allayed violent infiam-
nation Of the brain, and arrested fearful con-

Water, as cold as ice can make it, applied freely
to the throat, neck and chest with sponge or
cloth, very often affords an almost miraculous
relief; and if this be followed by drinking CO.
piously of the same ice cold element, the wet
ted parts wiped dry and the child be wrapped
up well in the bed clothes, it falls into de-
ightful and life-giving slumber. All infamma-
tons, interal or external, are promptly sub
dued by the applications of ice or ice water,
because it is converted into steam and rapidly

To drink any ice cold liquid at meals re-

known to Induce the most dangerous internal

IF ice is put in milk or on butter, and these

ENVY like a cold poison, benumbs and stu
peties, and thus, as if conscious of its own i'm
potence, it folds its arms in despair, and sits
cursing in a corner. When it conquers it is
commonly in the dark; by treachery and I'M
dermining by calumny and detraction. Envy
is no less foolish than detestable; it is a vice
which they say keeps no holiday, but is al
ways in the wheel and working upon its own
disquiet-Jerenaioh Collier
VERY ToUcHING.-Here is touching des-
eription of a moonlight scene:
After whirling some time in the ecstatic
nazes of waltz, Cornelia and myself stepped
| out, unobseryed on the balcony, to enjoy few
of those moments so precious to lovers. 1t
was glorious night-the air was cool and
| refreshing. As | gazed on the beautiful being
by my side thought never saw her look so
lovely; the full moon cast its rays over her
whole person, giving her most angelic ap-
pearance and imparting to her curls, still
more golden hue. One Of her soft white
hands rested on mine, and ever and anon met
| y>ardent gaze with one of her pure, confid-
| ing looks. Suddenly change came over her
features, her full red lips trembled with sup
pressed emotion, tear-drop rested on her
| long dropping lashes, the muscles around her
| faultlcss mouth became convulsed, she grasped
for breath, and snatching her hand from the
warm pressue of my own, she turned sudden
| ly away and saeezed.
