We understand that there Wa q little
shooting match ~ Pilot Grove one day this
week, beiweeha couple u citizens Of thai
place, neither Of the parties were hurt how

liHoully,-Ibm
On last Sunday evening We were visited
with severe hail,storn-the clouds pass
ing from Southwest To Northeast, The
storm ragged with greatest severity few
miles west Of the city, doing great damage
to the crops that lay In its track, One Of
our largest farmers estimates one third Of
bis wheat destroyed, aud his peach aud
other fruit crops materially injured,
Accounts have reached us of shOal Of
tornados rioting through the noighhor
hoods Of Pennington, Pilot Grove and
Mantua on last Saturday eyening-all Of
the most terrific oharaoler-lnying more
than forty houses in ruins and manning
some citizens We hope this rep RI will be
greatly modified when we come to learn the
exnct extent of the damage. The first i'm
prcssions Of all calamilies are innoccntly
magnihed and nothing is more calculated
to startle the Imagination than such awful
exhibitions Of elemental forces. -Nc Kinney
Enquirer
CoURr.-0n Monday last the court at
tempted to organize, Judge Harriten pre-
siding. Out Of over sixty tests, but one
Juror was obtained. We understand the
Judge designs trying to get jury If it
takes all the week. We think II extremely
doubtful whether a jury is obiaincd.-BoS'
que Beacon.
IyDIASs.-Quite on excitement prevailed
on Monday night in Meridian on account
Of the proximity of Indians In the neigh
borhood. II is said Mr.. Mcnnifee found
and brought into town an Indian equippage,
and the Indications of the trail &C., are said
to BIO unmistakable.--Ibid
The WEATHER AND CRors.-On last
Wednesday night we had delightful show
err and the skies have been more or less
cloudy and damp ever since. Yesterday
morning there was another slight fall Of
rain, and we learn from gentlemen, living
in the country, that nothing is suffering
from the dry weather. The corn is looking
we'll and the cotton promising, so far, but
little can be judged or determined so early
in the season.-Austin Gazette, Moy Is.
A HEAVY FLEEcE.-The buck lately pur-
chased by our townsman, A. B. Palm, Esq.,
from Mr.. Barber, of Vermont, was sheared
the other day and produced fleece weigh
ing twenty-one pounds two ounces before it
was washcd-and after washing, eighteen
pounds. We have sample Of it before us,
equal in quality to any was have ever seen
Every man owing sheep should improve his
flock until Texas wool acquires reputation
which will insure it the highest price in the
market.-IJid
The editor of the Trinity News, has re-
Gently passed over the country from Palcs-
tine to Tyler. He found corn very scarce
on the road; very few farmers have enough
to last them until the present crop is made.
He states that larger crop Of corn has
been planted this spring than ever before.
The citizens of Tyler are making an effort
to have the State university located at that
place, and he thinks there is strong prob
ability that they will be successful.
Major. General Heintzeman leaves for
the North to-day, on three months leave
of absence. lie carries with him the best
wishes of our citizens.-Gn Bulletin.
The same paper says, that the Austin In
elligencer has refused to become the organ
of the Radical organization Of Travis coun-
ty. From the number before us, we judge
this report TO be true, as the editorials are
of general character, and hayeno political
significance.
PERsoNAL.-Thc following military gen.
tlemen arrived this morning: General p.
II. Sheridan, General Porter, General Bah
cock, General A. G. Sautell, Colonel Crosby,
Major Howe, Surgeon Ash, Lieutenant
Crowell and lady, Lieutenant Bascomb and
Lieutenant Coleman.-Gal. Bulletin, lin.
Gen. Sheridan did not remain in Calves
ton, but returned to New Orleans on the
same day. Rumor had it that serious riots
in New Orleans called him back but these
are not confirmed by later dates.
