4 The friends of Edward s. Stokes, who
has just been flor the second time) found
guilty of the murder Of Jim Fisk, need
have no apprehension that he will be hung
for changing for murder is played out in
New York." Notwithstanding Jack Rey.
nolds was hanged for saying 1t, and be
cause he had no political friends. Virtu-
GUS New York could not be traduced in
that way, and hung Jack out Of pure spit,
for the insult. But Stokes has powerful
friends, and can defy the court, jury, and
the com MUMMY generally. Here are a,
present about q dozen men convicted o,
murder in the first degree and sentenced
to be hung-some Of them as early as ten
years ago-awaiting execution in the
Tom bs. The sentence Of the law will never
be executed in their cases, and simply be-
cause the city is cursed with corrspt ju'
dietary. The administration of justice in
New York is disgrace to the country
and to civilizatiop.-W Warrington Star.

The Last Revelation.
Respectfully,
j. w. SWINDELLS & co.

Capt. Jno. G. Conner, the retiring
member of Congress from tho I'd
District of this State, has written a
letter to /" My Countrymen." 1t is
precious product, replete with the
regrets Of an agonized heart and
overlooking with coptrition for the
crimes perpetrated by him in the
ranks of the Democratic party, of
which he is no longer a member,
because forsooth it is defunct in
stitution in his view Of the situa-
ton. He saw that grand old party
die ain tho house of it's lords F" in
Baltimore, after having received
its mortal wound by those whom
it had trusted and honored. -
He "saw the treacherous steel
of the assassin drink its hearts
blood" and "its glorious his
tory of u half century, its men,
cries and its traditions stained with
dishonor," and as he prayed God
that the Recording Angel might
drop a tear and blot out that days
work forever" he " heard freedom
shrek " with the agonies Of abso-
lutte dissolution. The Captains
eyes are keen, they must be, his
ears acute indeed, when to him was
revealed, both "by seeing and hear
ing more than the whole universe
was able to discover of the calami-
ties entailed upon the country by
the Baltimore convention. He SOL
EMMY AYERS that " during the hot,
sultry months that succeeded " the
Democratic assemblage at Balti-
more he " followed the lifeless corpse
of the party through the canvass"
notwithstanding the negligence of
Corsicana and Baltimore delegates
TO provide fitting accommodations
for the funeral of the great party
whom they had betrayed and muir
iered." This was a terrible ordeal
which the Captain passed,

in company. The colonel protested that
in thirty years he had not seen single
converted Hindoo. The missionary held
his peace for time, and when, shortly
afterwLrd, the colonel began to talk with
great gusto about his hunting exploits,

The following suggestions will
apply to Dallas as we'll as Ellis
county, and are worthy of the ma
ture consideration of every man
who has his own and the interests
of the country at heart:
FARMING IN TEXAS.
Talking about econ oRy, reminds us thai
we are the most economical people in the
United State. We have more cattle than
any other State in the Union, yet we have
to buy western butler and manufactured
milk. We have the best country in the
world for mast and corn, yet there are
hogshead after bogshead Of bacon sold
here, and tierce after tierce Of lard, when
Their should not be pound brought here!
but on the other hand it should be shipped
away, and we get the benefit Of the finance
connected with the matter, instead of 9TH
err parties. We can make butter, bacon
and lard to sell right here in Ellis county,
if the right course be taken. By not hav-
ing so many cattle, and providing well for
what wc do have, we can make plenty oil
milk and butter all the year round. By
cultivation and attention, we believe the
Texas COW can be brought TO that State Of
perfection that all your boosted FLOODED
stock pretends to have. So with the hogs
By attending to them, and preparing their
food right, they con be brought to as fine
q condition as any on the globe. What
say our farmers to making the trial for
economy's sakeT 1t is a job that requires
time TO develop its benefits fully Wdra'
