A BRUTAL murder was committed
near Cleburne, one day last week. x
young man calling his name Jones,
was arrested In town, suspected of hay
ing y stolen horse. He WAS kept in
custody few hours and released, no
evidence appearing against him.
When released he Immediately left
town. The next day his body, horri-
bly, mutilated, was taken from u well
about three miles from tswn, The
perpetrators OF the deed have not yet
been discovered, If they are, Judging
from the tone of the article In the
Chronicle, from which we gather these
items, but little lenlency will be shown
them. Jones IL described as having
light, sandy hair, frecliled face, and
looked to be about eighteen years old.

LOST AND FouND.-stories of childre

LOST AND FoUND.-Stories of children
stolen by Indians, growing up among them,
and only learning the truth from death-b bed
confessions years after, are not infrequent, but
they are not always reliable. The Montreal
Gazette gives narrative of the kind which
shows truth to be stranger than fiction. 1t ap-
pears that thirty years ago little child, the
son of Quebec carpenter named Richards,
mysteriously disappeared, and constant efforts
made for his recovery were OF no avail, no clue
being discovered as to his fate or whereabouts.
A few weeks ago the lost boyswas discovered
in singular manner.
A gentleman coming to Montreal on busi-
ness, entered the store of halter named Rich
mond, and in the course of conversation re-
marked that bore striking resemblance to
the Richards family of Quebec. After while
Richmond told the strange story, OF his LIE,
from which it appears that he had been stolen
by an Indian squaw, whom he had been taught
to love as his mother, and who had confessed,
on her death.bed, that he was not her son. The
name of the family from which he had been
stolen was, as near as he could remember,
Richmond. With the slight clue afforded by
the squaw's confession, he set about discover
ing his parents, but, as might have been ex-
pected, without success, and it was only by the
timely discovery of stranger of his resem-
blance to the Richards family, that he was re-,
stored, after thirty years, to those who had
given up all hope of ever seeing him again.

THE CHOLERA ScoURGE.--The Nashville
Union and american, speaking of the cholera
epidemic recently prevailing there, says:
t"We may call this pestllence by whatever
name may suit the fancy, but the record shows
that it has been more virulent than that which
scourged our city so terribly in 1866. Thus we
find that from the 9TH to the 30th of September
in that year, both days inclusive, the number
who died from cholera was 659. This year,
during the corresponding days in June, there
were 631 deaths from cholera, of which the
undertakers have a record, and then we know
of from thirty to thirty-fye negroes buried at
one place who are not included in any under
takers count. This clearly shows a greater
mortality this year. 1t is also probable that
greater number were attacked this year who
recovered, than in 1866. We have heard this
suggested by persons in whose judgment we
have good deal of confidence. This disease
has followed the old cholera track inits former
visits to this city, and its greatest mortality has
been in the belt in which the largest mortality
resulted from previous visits, showing conclu;;
sively that there must be something local
which invites the pestilcnce to revel in the
lower portions of the city, where. the water is
unquestionably bad, and the sewerage of such
inferior character as scarcely to deserve the
name. These facts establish the other fact that
we have had cholera here in its worst form-a
cholera that kills equal to anything Of Asiatie
extraction"

whether they speed us on the way of our wish

decency, and the moral duties and dare to be
singular in honor and virtue.
- Other things being equal, cold air is more
in7igorating than warm air, because more con-
densed, and therefore cold air in the bedroom
is to be preferred during the night. II. is also
true that cold air may be impure. and rooms
need ventilating even in winter.

A DRUNKEN DocroR.-We take the follow

A DRUNKEN DoCTOR.-We take the follow
ing from the Washington Capital:
We had q drunken doctor by the name of
Todd. who, from his habits was known as
Toddy. He was considered one of the most
successful practitioners of our county SITE
People said old Todd wasA wonder, and the
drunker he grew the wider and deeper spread
his reputation. This is common in other walks
of life. We have known lawyers, authors and
artists to add to their reputation by being IN
toxicated most of the TIME. People said, GLOW
wonderful he would be if he we're sober."' The
fact was, the only wonder was in the liquor.
Had the man been sober man he would prob
ably have escaped notice.
Old Todd was called in, or rather he was
picked ND drunk at the tavern one night,
almost insensible, to prescribe for man in the
greatest agony. The doctor staggered into the
room and fell upon the floor. He was shaken
up, and diagnosis roared into his ears. All
that could be got from him was the one word
"coffee." A pot was hurriedly put upon the
fire. and as soon as it could be made as strong
holy writ, q pint was poured into the patient,
who only roared the louder. Again the doctor
was appealed to, and again he muttered "coftee. ("
The Jealous friends and relatives Immediately
forced down the throat of the sufferer another
dose. A third attempt was being made, when
the doctor staggered to the bed side, and seizing
the cup drained the liquid himself.
He then rolled out to the pump, and putting
his medical head under the spout, hs water
pumped over it for some minutes. AftN this
he returned, somewhat sobered, to the bSiside
of his patient, felt his pulse, looked at his
tongue, and poked the poor fellow in the
stomach.
"Hagre ye, man?"
A.merry twinkle shot from the infamed eyes
of the intoxicated practitioner, but he said
nothing then: Subsequently he let the joke
out to q brother physicians 'T wanted that
coffee myself, to sober me up. D-d if they
didn't give it to the fellow in collie; it cured
him though" And the doctors chuckled mer-
rily.
