ton, referring to atfidavits published
under the head of New To-day" i'm
response to the reasonable request of
the signer thereof, who considers
himself as the party referred to in
several local items lately appearing
in this Eal er, and, SO considering, is
entitled to the benefit of his denial,
particularly as it is made under oat Ii.
We take ccaslon to say here, how
ever, that only the bare facts, or sup
posed facts. were furnished us, and
no anne of any individuals what.
ever accompanied the statements
made. We are sorry that the writer
should have deemed it necessary to
take any notice of these statements,
II he felt conscious that they did not
apply TO him. For Dur own part, we
never should have known. or cared
to Know, who was referred to, and
the matter, we think, would soon
have dropped out OF recollection. As
he has chosen tina, it should lie other
wise. and as we cannot positively say
he has not the right tu consider him
self injured, hts staten .uts must le
given As much publicity AS those
which have caused his denial.

Horrible Torture and Murder Of a
Negro,

IHE following story seems incredible.
1t is related, however, by Trustworthy
newspaper the Austin (TeXas) JOUrldi.
Between the 1st and 10Th of May, 1878,
party consisting of, say half dozen,
more or less, visited Il camp of worlmen
on the railroad (Texas Pacific twenty
miles north Of Jefferson, in state of in
toXication, headed by a Mr., Porter, an
old citizen of Cass County. Mr.. Porter,
the leader, commenced an attack on ne
gro man, who, a bystanding white man said
to Mr.. Porter was peaceable and unof-
Tending man. The negro pushed Mr. Por-
ter Off and kept out of his way. at this
Mr.. Porter took great offense, but not con
sidering himself sufficiently strong, went
back home, recruited his party, and re-
turned in day or so, and found the du
ties of the negro as laborer had caused
him to change to a camp some miles dis
tant on the railroad. Thither Mr.. Porter
and his increased force followed finding
the negro engaged at his labor Porter
assumed to be Sheriff, and the others of
the party subordinates, took the negro
prisoner, bound him fast, opened his eyes
and spit in them tobacco Juice
confined him fast to one of the horses
started off at fast gait, compelling him
| bow humbly to every white man they
met on the road and on the streets of d
town through which they passed en- route
Proceeding on their way to spot suff
ciently retired for their diaboliCal pur
| poses, they confined the man between two
small trees, so placing him that he coulC
only move his head Thus located, they
deliberately proceeded to make a cross or
his forehead by incision with a knife, anC
then scalped their victim. After thus in
1icting on him all the torture of which
they were capable, they retired few pace
and finished their barbarous work b,
shooting several loads of ammunition in
to his exposed and defenseless body. Ate
thus cruelty accomplishing their wcrl
they threw the lileless body into strean
of water convenient to the scene of action
Thus ended this bloody tragedy, commit
ted in the open light of day, under pre-
tended cover of law, and in open detianc
of the civil authorities. The perpetrator
had not, at last accounts, been arrested
The above occurrences took place within
thirty miles of the city of Jefferson, one g
the la, gest cities of Texas, and a count
settled some quarter of century. 1t
stated that the perpetrators were compose
of old citizens of the. county of Cass i

A REMARKABLE PROGRESS.
LFrom he Hartford Dany Trmesl


We have already alluded to the prosperous cundl-
ton of the PhPuix Life Insurance Company located
in this city, Of which Edison Fessenden is the Presi-
dent ana James F. Burns Secretary. A more careful
investigation of It's last annual statement Just pub
lished warrants us in submitting to the readers Of
the Times some further remarks upon its rapid pro.
TO popular favor and its remarkably prosperous
condition AZ the present time.
Let us compare its condition ten years ago with
what is at the present time. In the years 1862 and
1858 1t issued l7l7 policies It's income Sl25612
dividends, Sl,2A; losses by death. $3.50: assets
Sis7'@S Here was the business Of two years.
In 1872 it issued l0.5e7 policies; its Income was
S34l315245; dividends, s9l34I7 Il losses by DEATH
sS3l.ll632; net assets, ss s,2O9,325 507
This increase of business and assets in the short
period of ten years is worthy of special notice An
income in 1872 of s. 500 900 against 62 In
1862 and 1863; It is thirty to one. over ten
thousand policies last year against seventeen hun,
dred In years, only years ago Its net assets
amount 10 ever eight millions now then less than
half million-morc than sixteen to one. This won
derful Increase Is not the result Of single jump
comes Of regular yearly advances; showing the
sOlldtty and pernanency of this signal prosperity
For instance, the net Of the company at the
opening Of the year lsT2 amounted 10 S75l0Bl4O5 al
the commencement Of 1873 they S. e1 395 O7-an
| Increase during the year 1872 of S69s 6uO2.
The Phenix has now 5000 policies Ia force. cover
ing 81 $40, 81. Valued by the New York standard
these policies are worth S6,IT6,i7, and other habiu
ties carry Its obligations up to SIO9 1851 Deduct
| ing this from It's assets and the company has
surplus of a, ,t99 $3.50.
The officers lay these facts before the public witt
/ the assurance that they cannot be eqHaled In com
| paratye strength by the statement of any compan!
| in New England, it, indeed, by any in the country
though few others have larger aggregate Of assets
No company In this city equaled IL last year In tn
! number Of policies issued. Only one came within
1000 OF 1t, and the others from 5000 TO 5000 be
| low it.
in this sterling condition Of s dnances in It's grea
and increasing prosperty " and IN the firm hold II ha
upon pubic confidence, the PhGniX may, with du
degree Of pride and satisfaction publish the detail
OF It's business and It's solid condition.

SOiling Stock.

Mr.. EDITOR: In your articles present
ing to your readers the advantages of soil
ing stock---all of which, let me remark,
| strongly approve-you have never men
toned one advantage which think very
great, and which all will admit when it is
presented. | allude to the comfort of
stock which are stabbed in good, airy and
well-ventilated stables during the long,
hot days of summer, shaded from the heat,
protected against flies, and enabled to eat
their food in comfort. We all know that
during the hot hours of the day in sum
mer, cattle turned out to pasture will seek
the shade, and that they will leave their
food to find shelter from the heat and the
insects. We may therefore conclude that
if we were to supply them with plenty of
green food and water in a cool, clean sta
bic, they would enjoy it more and thrive
better than if we should turn them out to
forage for themselves under u burning
sun and among swarms of flies. Besides,
we also know that when the weather is
hottest our pastures are always the barest
and least nourishing. IL is very rare to
find pasture in our country which in
July and August will supply stock with
the food they ought to have. 1t stands TO
reason that stock exposed to a vertical
sun, forced to roam over acres of ground
to find few mouthfuls of succulent herb
age, and pestered by all sorts of insects,
will not thrive as we'll rs those that are
sheltered and have plenty of food.
You have already demonstrated that by
soiling you can support stock with less
| land and less expenditure for fences than
! where pastures are the sole reliance, and
| you have also shown the great advantage
| in the vast increase of the manure pile, and
| in the greater abundance of the crops
| But desire in this communication TO re
| fer to the greater thrift of stock which are
soiled in summer as compared with those
| that are turned out to shift for themselves
in those fields which, by an effort Of imag
ination we call pastures
| suppose when our farmers have tried
and found the benefit of lucerne, millet
drilled corn and clover, they will take the
next step and soil their stock | hope
that the day may not be far distant wher
these excellent crops may be raised OF
every farm, and when cattle turned ou
to pasture" in the dogdays may nowhere
be seen.--G. j. B., in Southern Farm a1.c
Home.

Summer Dangers,

The summer sunshine that clothes the earth with
luxuriant vegetation, eyaporates vast amount of
crude, unwholesome moisture from its surface,
which, mingling with the air in the form Of me-
phidc gases, produces variety OF febrile and
other diseases. The body being debiliiated by the
warmth of the season, and the pores being wide
open, gaping as it were for the seeds of sickness,
any infectious principle that may exist in the at
mosphere is readily received into the system, when
II bears baneful fruit in the shape of malarious
fever biliousness, diarrhea, dysentery collie, sick
ness at the stomach, headache or nervous pros
trahon. In order TO prevent these Wsitations, put
