Death of an Old Texan.
The Galreston CiriLian saws:


Captain Luke A. Falvel, harbor master of
this port, died suddenly last night at his
residence, corner of Church and Centre
streets. Captain Falvel had been com
planning for several days of pain in his
chest and side, which he attributed to Theu-
matism, but did not consider it serious, and
kept on his feet attending to his duties:
Captain Falvel was a native of Ireland,
where he was born in the early part of the
present century, and became follower Of
the sea while quite young. In 1880 and 1881
he chose the United States as his home, but
continued to follow the sea as a profession.
In 1885 he was placed in charge of the
schooner Flash, which was destined for
Texas, which he armed, loaded with agri-
cultural implements, and taking on board
few passeng gers, sailed for Texas, arriving
in Galveston bay early in 1896 On the
second of March of that year the Flash, to-
gether with several other armed vessels, was
put in commission as Texan man-Of-war,
Captain Falvel remainingin in charge. Upon
him devolved the duty of assisting to re-
move the people of the BrazOs, who were
fleeing before the Mexican advance, which
be accomplished and returned to Galveston
bay in April, 1886. When he arrived at
Morgans Point with his vessel the Texan
army we're falling back from Harrisburg,
and he took on board President Burnett,
family and Cabinet, together with large
number Of women and children, and landed
them on Galveston island on the twentieth
of April, 1886. The next day the battle of
San Jacinto was fought and won and the
fate of Texas decided. Captain Falvel oc-
cuPied many stations of trust if not profit
under the government he assisted in max
ing, was respected by all who knew him,
and died as he had lived an exemplary
member of the Catholic Church. He leaves
an aged wife and several children to mourn
his loss. The flags upon the shipping in
the city and on the public buildings are at
half mast in respect to his memory.

Voice Of the Peonle.

We copy the following from the Wash
ington Capitol:
We had the pleasure, a day or two since,
of an interview with an enthusiastic com
mOner. He was no Cffice-hOlder nor office
seeker, but had treated himself to a look at
things at Cincinnati, at Philadelphia, and
at Baltimore. "Ill tell you what it is"
said he, "the politicians are nowhere.
They. are a thousand miles behind the
people. They are thinking Of one thing and
the people of another. They are thinking
about taking care of themselves; the people
are thinking of making a new deal, in which
they do not care copper what becomes of
the politicians. Talk about parties"
he continued there are no parties.
The old politicians at Baltimore would
have been glad enough to have got rid of
Mr.. Greeley, but they couldn't. They did
not know of much that was going on among
the people, but they knew enough to be
sure that it wasn't safe. Why, you can't
begin to know how the leaven is working
in all parts of the country away from the
cities. Thousands of me1, who a week ago
did not know how it was possible for them
to vote for Greeley, have found out. Thou
sands of men who are hesitating viii 90
over before another week has closed. You
might as well try to stop fire on the prai-
ries when it has a tornado behind it.. While
you are trying to tread it out in one place
the sparks are flying far ahead, and it
breaks out in dozen places.
81 wouldn't have believed it. I tried not
to believe il; but found the people ahead
of me and l am trying to catch up. We are
beginning a new era in politics. We are
not going to measure this years corn in
last years half bushel. tell our politicians
they are not half awake. Look a5 the New
York World The fellow thought he was
going to put stop to this business. He Is
not the first bull who has tried bis strength
on a locomotive. He has had to come
down. They are all coming down. Why
Dan Voorhees, has telegraphed to Baltimore
that he was going TO take the stump Tor
Greeley next week; and l am going TO
Philadelphia to the ratification meeting"

The Houston Telegraph has this para
graph:
We know a gentleman, who, five years
ago, sold his real estate in an interior Texas
town at less than half Its cost, took the
money and moved to Houston, and invested
II in re .bestate here. The real estate pur-
chased has so increased in value as to much
more than make up his loss, with twelve
per cent interest on the loss, and his prop
erty now commands in rental twenty per
cent upon its cost.
The same paper says:
The bottom sugar and cotton lands upon
our streams are rapidly coming again into
notice. The large farms OH the Lower Bra
zOs, Caney, Oyster creek and Colorado,
when emancipation took place went down
in price from $50 to $40 and s. per acre.;
but since it is seen that free labor can be
made available to work them they have
risen largely from their depreciation, and in
a few years they will command even larger
prices than ever before.

Cooking and eating a live goose" is the

and which it dare not give a name to either

But as the goose organ is not very well
acquainted with the makeup of distant To-

it that when the Uor poplti Of that parish

thousand black tbroats, outnumbering the
little clique who support its combination
twenty to one. .'That's what's the matter"
