WASHINGTON. /.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.-Colonel Robb
OF Georgia, and Mr.. Savage, of California,
two of the Commissioners appointed by
the President to take testimony, relative
to the depredations on the Rio Grande,
having returned to Washington, to-day
called upon President Grant and had with
him. long interview.
Congress, at its late session, iapproprlat-
ed SIX thousand dollars to pay the expen-
ses of the commission. The President was
much interested in the narrative OF these
gentlemen, who will prepare personal re-
port for Transmission to Congress, and was
evidently gratified with the manner in
which they transacted the business with
which they were entrusted. a-
The incursions by armed Mexican bands
into Texas are numerous and have con-
tinued ever since 1859. They have since
that time driven horses and cattle
estimated to be worth several millions of
dollars from Texas ranches across the
river into Mexico, where their plunder is
sold to soldiers and citizens. General
COrtina, who is not at present in active
military service, but OH waiting orders, is
represented to be one of the most active
instigators of the incursions, by which he
largely profits. The Texans while endeav-
OIIuS W uTIN0 away Tile GLleNeS are SOluS-
times killed by superior numbers of the
Mexican bands, while occasionally the lat
ter suffer in like manner. Owing to these
frequent incursions the border counties are
in state of excitement.
There is only one company of cavalry n
the frontier, which is of little use, consid-
ering the distance which requires their
presence, being 500 miles-from the mouth
of the Rio Grande to the extreme Ameri-
can settlements. The infantry is located
at long Intervals. The distance is nearly
800 miles from Fort Brown to Ringgold
barracks, with only one camp intervening.
Some sufferers by the Mexican raids trav-
eled 200 miles to give their testimony, and
expressed their qualification that prelimi-
nary measures had been taken not only to
protect but to indemnify them for losses.
McCook, commanding on the Rio
Grande, corroborates the statements of the
witnesses as to the boldness with which
the raids are made and testifies as tohis in
ability with an insufficient force to give
the required protection, There is no reason
to doubt the President in submitting the
report of the commissioners to Congress
will accompany it with q strong recon-
mendation that prompt measures be taken
to protect our citizens on the border in
their lives and property.

Treat the Cows Kindly.

There are too many who exhibit r
roughness of treatment toward the COW
and yet no domestic animals are more sem
sitive, or more quickly feel the unkindness
shown them. They can be made docile
and mild in their disposition or timid and
wild, just in accordance with the treat
ment they receive from the herder and
mixer; and it is we'll established fact
that a COW will transmit her disposition in
great degree to her progeny. A rough,
quick-tempered person should never be
employed as milker; and one who will
on any pretense whatever, kick or strike
cow, should be kicked in turn, from the
barn-yard into the street, and never be al
lowed to return. Gentleness will increase
the quanty of milk, as has been shown by
change of cruel and irascible to one who
practiced kind and gentle treatment. 1t is
an injury to cows to be driven faster than
an easy walk, to or from pastures. To be
urged on by thoughtless boys, and these
perhaps on horseback, is to produce a fe-
yer and heating of the blood which is sure
to dry up or lessen the flow of milk. Cows
should always be made as comfortable as
possible, summer and winter; it pays to
do it.-Pdcifc Rural Press.

The fight is by no means over yet. 1T is
never prudent to make concessions to q

Nor is the dark cloud without its silver
lining. This triumph of Radical corrup-
ton has been dearly purchased. Unless
Grantism made some show of carrying
these elections, all was lost. 1t was with
them last desperate chance. The cohorts
of corruption have hazarded their all on
the cast of the die. Their corruption funds
have been well nigh drained in this effort.
Their victory is at the cost of exhaustion.

The ELECTION.
Indiana Legislature Certainly Repub-
IiCaTl.
Senator Horizons Reelection Assured,
Republicans Claim the State Ticket.
Hariranft Sweeps PhiladeIphia.On its
Regular Vote.

INDIANAPoIIS, Oct. I0-Noon.-Th Re-
publican Committee claim the State by DDS
majority. The Democrats claim the State
by 1000 majority. The official count may
be required to decide. The Democrats
concede the Legislature, which secures
Morton another senatorial term.
The New York Herald figures up the
result as follows: Pennsylvania, Republi-
can majority, $4,000; Ohio, Republican
majority, $1,000; Indiana, majority for
Hendricks or Brown, 500 to 1000. The
Republicans have undoubtedly gained one
Congressman in Indiana and have ma
iority of the Legislature. The official
count may be necessary to determine the
State ticket. ... ...r
The Tribune claims Indiana for the Lib
erals by 800 to $500.
Ohio returns are very incomplete. The
Tribune says the Liberals have elected
seven Congressman, gain of two, and the
Administration has chosen thirteen.
INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 10-Night.-T re-
turns to noon are more favorable for the
Republican State ticket. The Republicans
claim 600 majority on the entire State
ticket The Democrats concede the elec-
ton of the Republican State ticket, ex-
cept for Governor-claiming a small ma
jority for Hendricks. The official vote is
coming in very slowly, and it will require
almost the entire vote to arrive at the re-
suit.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1O.-The city Off
cial count shows over 11S,0O0 votes polled.
Hartranft's majority is 20, ,437. The major
ity of the Congressman at large is 21, ,919.
Speer, Democrat, is elected to Congress in
the 18th District, by 500 majority.

The Defeat of Harry Bassett.

It has been mentioned by telegraph that
the celebrated racer, Harry Bassett, the
rival of LOngfellow, was beaten at Pros
pect Park, New York, OH Saturday, by
Monarchist, owned by M. H Sanford.
This was most unexpected result, as the
odds were extravagantly in favor of Bas-
sett. The race was dash of three miles,
and very exciting. In drawing for places
Monarchist had the inside, but Bassett got
the best of the start by "a full length. At
the quarter pole they were head and head.
but Bassett soon got the lead, and coming
up the stretch they seemed to move almost
with the speed of the wind. The faster
Bassett ran the closer Monarchist seemed
to hang to him, and at the finish of the
first mile, which was run in las, Bassett
only led three-quarters of a length. The
next mile was almost repetition of the
first. but entering the stretch Monarchist
was still only neck behind the favorite.
and when again they came up the stretch
both were going more slowly, and they
PASSED the stand, having run the two
miles in S:S71. AS they passed the stand
the general opinion was that Monarchist
was running the fastest, and that if he only
stuck to his work he would win. sBassett
however, kept the lead until well into the
straight, when the whip was applied tc
Monarchist, and he came up even with
Bassett, amidst the greatest. excitement
Monarchist came home the winner by two
lengths, in 5:341. On returning to welgh
neither horse appeared to be distressed
Monarchist certainly was not, while Bas-
sett cantered away to his stable. The
scene at the finish was one of the greatest
excitement, all present, even some of the
losers, shouting themselves hoarse. z

The Value of Glover.

We are afraid of clover afraid to feed it
extensively, especially as a main feed and
afraid to plow it in. This is wrong; we
are constantly losing by not growing more
clover-lOsing in many respects. Clover
is plant that draws from the atmosphere
and enriches the land. 1t improves the
soil by its roots alone, if the crop is used
for other purposes, even if seed crop is
taken. Glover contains q large per cent.
of nitrogen, and hence its great value as
manure when turned under. The plant
works for itself and for you. We get its
strength from free source-the atmos-
phere. You can make this plant work for
you, and even on poor or thin soil you can
get good thick set by sowing plenty of
seed. Cut this when it begins to lodge,
which will be about the time when bios
SONS appear, and you will be surprised at
the yield of superior hay you will cut to
the acre. The second crop is often as
heavy as the first, but as it contains the
seed many farmers prefer the first crop for
their horses. r. .--. 10

THE vote of Philadelphia in 1868 was
116, 900. Our dispatches this morning show
the vote on last Tuesday was 11S, 900, a gain
of but 1000 in four years. Yet on this
vote Hartranft carries the city by 10000.
This stops the cry of fraud and is asplendid
tribute to the slandered but now vindi-
Gated soldier. His vote in Philadelphia
was from the solid business men and work
ingmen of the Quaker city.
