GALVESTON QUARANTrNED. We learn
from note Of DR.. Pete, health physician
Of Galveston, to the Ne,cs, that all vessels
arriving from New Orleans, after sunset on
Sunday, the s1st, viii be subject to deten-
ton at that port. We suppose from this
that they have authentic information of gel
low fever at New Orleans. We hesr Of ru-
mors in our city that the fever is in Hous-
ton, but, as our latest papers from that city
are silent on the matter, we presume the re-
ports are unfounded.

WE are glad to read notice IN the Gal
weston Ne,os of the twenty-eighth instant,
that Col J. L. Barlow, late editor of the
GatesviIle Sun, has been associated with
the present editorial force of that paper.
Col Barlow is a good writer and sound
Democrat, and his accession to the Ne1es
will be hailed with pleasure by all who de
sire the advancement and success of the
Democratic party. Col. Barlow, in his new
and more prominent position, has our very
best wishes attending him.

THE Gazette and Journal, par aobile
tfat,qtm, are trying to ridieule Senator
Shelley for receiving the commendation Of
numerous citizens of the counties Of Bell
and Coryell as a candidate for the Demo
cratic nomination for Governor. They have
been working lovingly together for long
time. The Gazette gets off something in the
morning, and the Jouraag follows it up in
the evening. Davis has morning and
evening paper at Austin ready to do his
will. The editor of one walks in the Man
sion at the front door, the other sncaks in at
fl,o bacls

THE Radical Austin Journal complains
that the STATESMAN of last Friday sis full
of abuse of the Journal and the State Ga
sette." There it is again; the two are being
constantly coupled together; blow at one
is felt as blow at the other. They arc all
the time defending and complimenting one
another as if they had joint interest, as
they had when the Gazette Office was moved
up to the old Journal quarters, when the one
pretended to buy the other out. The Won
der is they have not sense enough to keep
better concealed their love for each other,
and do not indulge in an occasional sparring
to keep up appearances. Still there would
be little use for that now. It's pretty well
understood now that they both wear the
same Radical collar, marked "Davis, his
organ"

ATTENTION is called to the card Of Prof.
S. c. Sneed, refuting the base SANDER
against Major Walton which appeared in
yesterdays Suite Gazette Mr.. sneed was at
that time connected with the Gazette, and
remembers perfectly the whole grounds Of
difference between Major Walton and the
platform Of the club. The Democracy Of
Major Walton has never been doubted, ex-
cept by Radicals in disguise.

A LATE interviewer of the Prophet Young
reports him as saying that they intend to
make a settlement somewhere on the bor-
ders Of Mexico, in Arizona The prophet
thought ado5c houses the best of any, being
warmer in the winter and coolcrin the sum
mer. A Mrs. Gould, Of San Francisco,
lately said to him: Really, should be
ever so much delighted to see your fami-
lies" Madam, said Brigham, straight
ening up, ssI am sorry to inform you that
they are not on exhibition to-day"

THE Journal accuses US Of calling hard
names. How can we do otherwise when we
have such hard cases to write about. It
talks Of our ''verbiagc." Yes, We have a
''mass'' Of it, and il viii last surely until
the next election is over, and the Radicals,
from Governor Davis down, will feel the
full weight Of it. It will be a mass that
viii press heavy on them and make them
frequently cry out with pain.

WE see published in the papers rumor
that the Indians had risen in their anger at
Fort Sill, surprised the place, and liberated
santanta and Big Tree. The news is said
to have been brought to Waco by stage
driver. We think it can hardly be so, but
surely there was some risk in taking them
there. The Journal denies that these
butchers are out of the Jurisdiction of the
State-but they are, and it knows it, if it
knows any thing of law. At Fort Sill or
Fort Gibson, they are beyond the limits of
the State, and in the keeping of United
States officials. Governor Davis has no au-
thority over them. He has no right what
ever to let them leave the State of Texas
and, mark our words, they will never come
back unless they come mounted and with
arms in their hands.

THE STATESMAN is never on the defense,
except to defend Democrats against the foul
aspersions Of presses ike the State Gusefte,
under the pay and control Of the Radicals.
It win war increasingly against the Radical
ticket, and against all so-caIled Democratic
papers which defend Davis and asperse the
"so-calIed Democratic Legislature.

THE lion. S. S. Cox has been nominated
by the Independent German Democrats OF
the New York Sixth District as their
candidate for Congress. He viii doubtless
receive the nomination of other wings of the
party in that district, which viii insure his
election. Mr.. Cox is an able and accom-
plished man and lifelong Democrat. His
speech to the committee, who waited on
him after the nomination, as reported in a
New York paper, is short but admirable.
We give an extract:
Especially am proud that you, as in
dependent Germans, have thus honored me-
Although it is said that God never made
an independent man, yet in many salutary
ways politics may be made independent
independent of frauds, jobs, corruptions
and chques. The honest German means
this. While as Democrats and as partisans
we do depend on each other, we do not de-
pend on our opponents for morals or for
rules of life in dress, drink or food-on laws
made by bigots and doctrinaires. In gov
ernment we would be Democrats; and hav-
ing learned lessons of local and personal
freedom, wherever the strong and manly
German tongue is taught, as independent
citizens we would select our servants and
tone our government by something better
than the loose, unthrifty and corrupt prac-
tices of those in power.

mnltary Rule.

Col. John McEnery, the legally elected
Governor OF Louisiana, recently advised the
people to asseniblein convention 10 petition
Congress for the removal Of the kellogg
usurpatiOn. or place the State under gov
ernment which would insure honesty and
official fairness.
The address Of the Governor, wc fear,
viii do no other good than calling the at
tention Of the people of the Northern
States TO downtroalep Louisiana, # be
means that Congress, IN the event that It
viii not order new election, shall inaugu-
rate military government IN which drum
head cOurt-maTtial viii be supreme, We beg
to say that such a course will bc but leaping
from the frying pan into the fire. IN the
frst place, Congress has no right 70 cstaij-
lish military government; and, in the sec
ond place, II It had, such rule would not
better the public condition.
Decidedly the best plan is 70 demand Of
Congress the removal Of the Kellogg gov
ernment, and persist IN this demand. II Il
be not granted, continue 70 make the de-
mand but remember Butler, and Sheridan,
and Mower and say no more about direct
military rule. - 6Qicost0n COa1icrct1f.

A REMARKABLE cure is that Of Col. Bob
Williams. Of EIatagorda county. Col.
Williams is nearly eighty years old, and lost
one Of his eyes over thirty years ago. The
other became very weak, and was at last
covered by cataract. He has been totally
blind for eight years, and during that time
has consulted several oculists, who pro
nounced it useless to operate upon the eve
from the fact that the eye itself had lost. its
vitality. Coming to this city, he met with
DR.. Dohmen, who promised him that he
could remove the cataract and restore his
vision. He submitted without hope, and
the result is that the old gentleman now sees
to walk about and with the aid of a glass
can read. Col. Williams was one of the
colonists who came to Texas with Stephen
F. Austin and settled in Matagorda county,
where he has resided ever since It will
gratify his acquaintances to know that he
has been thus fortunate And DR.. Dohmen
deserves much credit for the operation.

The ECLECTIC MAGAZINE. This excel
lent selection of foreign literature, for Sep
tember, is on our table, and is well calcu-
lated to keep up its old reputation It
contains fine steel engraving of Salmon
P. Chase, late Chief Justice of the United
States. The portraits Of eminent men,
given from time to time in this popular
magazine, are among its great attractions.
No ordinary engraving of any kind ever
disfgures it. We should Judge, from the
titles of the several articles of the present
number, that its reading matter must be
very interesting. We again commend this
to our readers, as well worth the
price of subscription, So a year. E. r.

scRDNER's MoSTHLY.-We are in re-
ceipt Of the September number Of this pop
ular magazine, whose reputation seems in
creasing with its years. The illustrated
papers are a Cruise among the Azores and
Central Park. OF the latter we can judge,
as the objects are familiar to US from fre-
quent visits and close observation, and we
think them good. The novel, Arthur Bon
nicastle, 10y the editor Holland, is con-
tinued in this number; also, the Episode of
Fiddletown, by Bret Harte. Among the
contributors are Kate Hilliard, Whitelaw
Reid, Albert Webster, Jr., aud George Nc
Donald. The contents seem varied and IN
teresting from the hasty glance we have been
able to give them. Our Southern readers
must not forget that the illustrations Of the
Great South, begun last July. win be con-
tinued in November. Price $4 a year.
