SHOCKING STATE OF THINGS IN TEX
As.-A Mr.. McAusland, a highlyrespect-
ed citizen, and formerly a resident of
Paterson. n. j., but more recently a res
ident Of Texas, has arrived home and
furnishes to the editor Of the Paterson
Guardian the following particulars of the
burning of the town Of Brennan, Wash
ington county, Texas:
"The first trouble occurred at a priv, te
invitation ball given by party of young
men, who had taken their sisters and
sweethearts to the hall hired for the pur-
pose. In the midst Of their enjoyment,
the officers of the troops stationed in the
vicinity attempted to gain admission and
afterwards brought in FIVE negro weuches,
whom they insisted on having admitted
promiseously in the dances. Of course
this produced trouble. The young men
protested, and declared the negro wenches
must not only keep out Of the quadrilles
but must leave the room, asit was pri-
vate ball. The officers declared they
should keep their black partners in the
room, and also that they should be ad-
mitted unfortunately to the dances.-
The white girls declined to dance in
quadrilles with the negro wsnches, and
we're about to retire when they were in
suited by the officers this produced a
rumpus-the young men Of the town
rallied, fight commenced, and the re-
suit was that the officers and Wenches
were cleared out.
"The next day the troops returned,
and in revenge burned up the business
part of the town and gave the whites no
tice to leave as they would come back
and finish the job. This they did, and
burned up the courthouse and churches,
again ordering the whites to leave. They
next, aided by a drove OF negroes, de-
stroyed every building in the town. Not
asingle house was standing when Mr.. Nc
Ausland left, to mark where stood so re-

BaDICAE. ORGAN ON THE TRIsE.

In tho city Of Cleveland, where the
Radicals have full sway, negro children
are sent to white schools, and sandwich
ed between white children, and every
effort to prevent this has been of no avail ;
there is a paper called the Herald. That
Herald is the great Republican organ of
Northern Ohio. In an article abusive
of the Irish Catholic population, it says :
"We unhesitatjngly aver that SEW
EN-TENTHS OF THE FOREIGN
ERS IN OUR LAND. WHO BOW IN
OBEDIENCE TO THE POPE OF
ROME, ARE NOT AS INTELLI-
GENT AS THE FULL BLOODED
AFRICANS OF OUR STATES-WE
WILL NOT INCLUDE THE PART
BLOODS. Yet, should a move be made
to curtail the naturalization laws, even
to extending the residence of the most
illiterate, ignorant foreigner that lands
on our shores. SUCH A DIN WOULD
BE RAISED AS WOULD DEAFEN
THE STATE"
This beautiful sample of Radicalism
needs no comment. The man that wrote
it is now Postmaster in Cleveland, re-
tanned there by the Radicals.

Jack to her, she proceeded to lecture
him upon the enormity eff the deed, tell

TIE BEST ARGUlIENTs.-The best ar
guments, says an exchange, in behalf of
Democracy and against the insane Abo-
litionism, which is attempting to drive
the country into immediate anarchy, are
found in the events Of the day, as they
are reported through the usual channels
of news. No comments are needed to
indicate the direction of the tide and tho
tendency Of the times. They only need
to be read in their naked truthfulness to
be more convincing that Radicatism is
ruin than any argument that can be ad-
ducGd. Our rulers are marching US along
to the tune Of John Browns anthem,
with a speed and certainty that demon
strates their proficiency in manufactur-
ing anarchy. But melancholy and alarm
ing as are these events and the condition
of the country, we do not despair of the
future, and confidently believe that from
the very bitterness of this nettle of Alb
olition Radicalism, we shall pluck the
flowers, success and safety. The people
are being aroused to the extremity Of
their peril by the ferceness with which
it is thrust upon them, and When once
aroused, they will recover themselves
and the country.

A CURIOUS AND USEFUL WATCH
One of the most remarkable euriOsities
in mechanics ofreceut invention, in Lon
don, is so worthy of notice that We send
your readers a minute description. It
is q watch, belonging to a member Of
Parliament, designed and made express
| ly for him, by James Ferguson Cole, the
celebrated watch and chronometer ma
kcr, whose surprising skill and varied
inventions have gained him the title Of
"the English Brequct." This unique
pocket chronometer has a silver dial, on
which are nine hands, Indicating respec-
lively the hours, minutes and seconds ;
the days of the weeks; the days of the
month the months fthe year. Itcor-
reefs itself for the unequal months that
is to say, changes when they have thirty
and thirty-one days; and also corrects
itself for leap-year. It is so construct
ed that any Slight agitation ofthe watch,
such as the ordinary exercise of walking,
winds it. Thus it may be worn and will
go perfectly for years, wtthOutrequiring
even to be opened, although it can also
be wound by a key in the usual manner.
The dial Is arranged in five circles, and
within the largest, the hour circle, is a
semi-circle, showing the moons age and
phases by means of gold on a ground Of
| blue steel At the back of the watch is
a gold Indicator for ascertaining the time
in the dark by touch. The complication
Of the mechanism may be imagined, and
yet the watch Is of ordinary Dimensions
and may be Conveniently worn in a gen
tleman's pocket It cost the sum OF
three hundred guineas. Mr.. Cole, the
inventor, is at present engaged in bring
ing out a work on honorology, which, it
is believed, will contain more interest
ing matter relative to the science than
has ever before been published.

SHARP SHOTS FROM THE CIRCLE-
WILLIE DEMOCRAT.

WHEN you hear q man advocating Nc
gro Suffrage look into his past historya
little, and see ifhe is not one of the same
persons that some twelve years ago want
ed the right of Suffrage so limited in
the United States that none but Ameri=
can born PrOtestants could enjoy that
privilege. In nine eases out of ten you
will find him to be one of those that be-
longed to that class. What demagoguesI
THE Radicals say negro suffrage will
be adopted in this country sooner or
later. That will not be the case till the
whites become too degraded to be worthy
of living undera free government. Then,
and only then, when the Radicals have
succeeded, if they ever do succeed, in
completing the degradation and ruin of
the country, will negro suffrage become
universal
THE Radicals claim that JEFF. Davis
has triumphed at last, and it does look
like it. He undertook to take the South
ern States out of the Union and did not
quite succeed. The Radicals took up
the work and completed it. The South
ern States are out of the Union. Davis
and the Radicals hare triumphed at last.

SCHENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS.
A Certain Cure for Diseased Liver and the
many Dangerous Maladies which are
caused by a morbid condi-
ton OF that organ.
To give the public clear understanding OF
the mode in which Schenck's Mandrake Pills
produce those wonderful effects which are at
tested by thousands Of reliable witnesses, we
DESCRIPTION OF THE HUMAN LIVER
and its functions, which win make the opera
ton of this popular medicine perceptible to
every mans understanding.
The liver is supplied with blood vessels,
nerves and absorbants: One OF it's obvious uses
filters the blood and separates that fluid from
all impurities. How indispensably necessary
to health is the proper performance of this func-
tionsi II the liver is diseased, it cannot purify
the blood, and II that is sent back through the
lungs, brain and other parts in morbid condi-
tion, 1t must cause jaundice, billiousness, OBJ
struction of the kidneys, gravel, and many
other complaints more or less painful and dan
gerous, but least of them quite enough to make
a man sick and uncomfortable, and unfit for the
performance Of any OF the duties OF life. This
unhealthy state Of the system very often ends
in pulmonary consumption.
The circulation OF the blood is conduted in
this manner The heart sends the vital cur
rent down through the arteries; it passes thro'
the flesh, taking up all impurities in its pro-
gress; then the stream of bloed flows back
ward through the veins, and passes TO the liver
to be purified 1t is impossible to cure con
sumption, scrofula, or scarcely any other kind
of liberation while that important organ, the
liver, is diseased. 1t is for that reason that
regular physicians" rarely cure consumption.
They usually begin their treatment with the
use of some cough medicine, the basis of which
is morphia or opium in some shape, which
locks up the liver instead of relaxing the secre.
lions, giving tone to the stomach, and pro-
ducing healthy flow of bile. DR.. SChenck's
Pulmonic Syrup. Seaweed Tonic, and Man
drake Pills, will strengthen the system, purity
the blood, and ripen and heal ulcers on the
lungs.
A volume would be required, to give briei
account of the remarkable cures performed by
| DR.. Schenck's medicines, viz Pulmonic Syrup,
Seaweed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills-all Of
| which are accompanied by full directions for
| the use of them.
