BORGIAIZED.

From Mr.. Bryant, stencil cutter, OF
this city, who returned from a trip up
the Central road yesterday, we have
the intelligence of the partial poison
ing at Plano, on Tuesday last, of the
engineer, fireman, and three brake
men, belonging to the mixed train,
coming south on that day.
We are furnished with no further
particulars, as the citizens seemed UNI
willing to speculate upon the cause, OF
talk, save in vague and disconnected
way of its commission, preferring to
leave the developments to q legal tri-
bunal.

ANOTHER importation of blooded
stock has just beer made by the steam
ship st. Mary, of the Morgan line, to
Rockport, Texas. IL consists of fifteen
Brahmin and eight Durham bulls; also
two fine cows. The animals are all
acclimated stock of Louisiana. The
stock was selected and purchased by
Jane Dryden, of Corpus Christi, for
Captain NJ. Kennedy, of Neuces colin-
ty, and Is intended to cross and I'M
prove his stock OH thet celebrated
rancho, Laureles. Other shipments
are to follow.-[Galveston News.
We record such items as the above
with pleasure. If all Of our people,
who are able, would import improved
animals to cross with native stock, a
few years would place Texas in the
front rank for fine stock. 1t will cost
the producer no more to rear n beef OF
fifteen hundred or two thousand pounds
than scrub of five hundred or seven
hundred pounds. If we would be
great and independentpeople, we mus'
use all reasonable means to improve
our condition.
The few men who, many years ago
improved their stock by importation'
and judicious crossings, all became
rich. The wise poor man of to-day
can enrich his children in a few years
by such course.

OF one thing the people of Texas

Richard Coke, Governor elect, is a wise
prudent, just and an honest maA
These excellent qualities are backed by
the highest moral courage. He will dc
no rash act to hazard the rights OF
his country-nor will he bend the

brute force, he will deport himself, as
becometh the faithful chief of an out

TO OUR EDITORIAL BRETHREN.

We are not captious. We protest
against every thing captious or jealous
as the appanage of minds small anc
capricious. But when we labor in the
dead hours of the night, while the null
titude sleep, to search out the truth, fol
the benefit of all our people-high OF
low, rich or poor-and then publish
our conclusions, we think our brethren
of the press who copy such articles
should at least credit the same to THT
DALLAS HERALD. That is fair sailing
We charge no paper with intentional
dereliction ON this point, but careless
ness is sometimes almost a criminal
wrong.
We will call no names, but rest con-
tent with saying that one of the papers
of Texas copied in full our Christmas
article to the children ofTexas, on the
Mier prisoners, without giving us
credit for it. AS perhaps no other man
in the State, except the writer thereof
could have so grouped the facts, we
think TIE HERALD should have had
credit for it, We, however, charge nc
more than carelessness to the paper.
Then, again, another paper copies
in full, without credit, our article
of some weeks ago, headed "a
Convention and New Constitu-
ton" That article cost us much reflec-
ton and investigation, and we pre-
pared it with solemn sense of respon-
sibility for whatever might grow out OF
it. An honorable and talented paper
Inadvertently we have no doubt)
copied the whole article without credit.
We would in no sense be capricious
on such matters; indeed we have a
supreme contempt for that class of
intellects commonly styled "small po-
tatoesn or 'cocoanut heads" yet when
we labor i'm mental tribulation to search
out and publish grave facts for the ben
fit of our country, it does seem to us
that THE HERALD should have the
credit from such papers as copy our
articles.
The Jefferson Tribune copied our
Christmas article 10 the children of
Texas. on the Mier prisoners, and gave
THE HERALD credit-indeed, several
papers did so-but one, much esteemed
by us, did not
We are not specially sensitive and
may commit errors ourselves, but
merely throw these suggestions as a
friendly intimation to be as careful as
we can inthese editorial courtesies.

~. moCALEn. Editor,
GALVESTON.

As the principal port Of Texas, Gal-
weston has promising future. In con-
sdcrlng the Toxins and Pacific railroad
and the advantages TO be derived from
It's construction TO this state. II II
clearly recog lizable that Galveston
must become the port that will de-
rive the greatest advantage MS the point
OF arrival aud departure for all the
European travel and commerce that
will seek this line of transportation
across the continent.
1t Is over three thousand miles from
San Francisco, by the Union Pacific
route, to New York. 1t is only about
fifteen hundred miles from San Diego
by the Texas and Pacific route, by way
of Dallas, to Galveston. This fact
demonstrates that the great bulk of
travel and trade from China, Japan,
the Sandwich Islands and Pacific
coast, destined to European ports, will
seek this line and Galveston ms an
outlet to the Atlantic ocean. The same
will hold good, as n rule, for freights
and. travel coming from Europe, in
tended for California or more distant
countries.
When the Texas and Pacific line is
completed across the Continent, the
mineral wealth of Arizona, New Mex
leo and Texas, and much of Northern
Mexico, in addition to the overland
commerce of other countries, will seek
water carriage at Galveston. Where
one ship seeks her harbor now, there
will be dozen then; and but few
years after that grand connection is
made the waters of the beautiful bay
will be whitened and animated by the
arrival and departure of innumerable
vessels every day in the year.
The increased productions of Texas
and the continually growing amount
of importations that will naturally
seek Galveston as point of egress ano
ingress, will make it a city of great
importance. Present railroad facilities
indicate that it must become the port
on salt water for much of the COM
merce of States near to and north OF
Is. When these avenues of trade are
fairly opened up, and the Others indi-
Gated are brought about by the build
ing of the Texas and Pacific Rail
way, there can be no doubt as
to the future wealth and popula-
ton of our own beautiful gulf city. We
sincerely believe the day is not fal
distant when she will eclipse in COM
mercial splendor Mobile and New
Orleans--not many years hence she
will send away more cotton than either
of them, and become the depot for the
bulk of the coffee intended for Texas,
the Indian Nation, Arkansas, Mis-.
souri,, Kansas, New Mexico, etc.
All that is said in this article as ben
eficial to Galveston, applies with SINH
lar, if not equal force, to the live and
energetic city of Houston, as the most
important railroad center. No such
developments can be made without
immensely benefiting Houston, and
we are sure such results would be graf
flying to the people of the State, who
cherish warm feelings for that busy and
go-ahead city.

Indian Murders ON the Frontier.
FORT BELKNAP, Texas,
January 4, 1874.


To the Editor OF THE DALLAS HERALD:
MIR. Slater, who, with party, has
been out ON a wolf hunt for some time
informs me this morning that, on
Christmas day, they came upon aparty
of men who had been murdered by the
Indians. There were four men, with
wagon and harness, in the camp,
The bodies looked as IL they had been
killed three or four days, were all
scalped and literally cut to pieces. The
bodies were buried as well as could be
done. This murder took place at
Buffalo Gap, now known as Hills
Gap. After reaching this place
learned that the murdered men belong
ed to one of s. w. McKibbin & Co. Is
xolfng parties.
Yours truly,
JOHN WALTERS.

In anticipation of feast, the buzz
yards are already flying around to seize
the fruits of death. The offices of the
counties are being already claimed by
vultures, who hope to receive commits
sions, tainted with corruption, from the
points of bayonets. Our faith in virtue
is yet too strong to make us tremble at
the wish of such birds of prey.

Snow fell at Galveston, Houston,
Bryan, Columbus, Hampstead, Trinity,
and other places in Texas, on Monday.
In Columbus it was the heaviest snow
ever known there, being three inches
deep. We hear of no snow In Northern
Texas as yet, though we have had
weather cold enough for it for the past
three or four days.

GOVERNOR DAVIS, more than any
public officer in the United States,
now has the opportunity of showing TO
the world that he has been misunder-
stood and misrepresented, by simply
obeying his own convictions in rela-
ton to the question raised by the Su-
preme Court decision. In his heart
he knows, as President of the conven-
ton that made the constitution, that
the decision is wrong As We have
refused to condemn him in advance,
we still await his decision.

Why, it always makes an 1srealite

papers advise greater cultivation of the

more hogs than will an acre of corn.
