The little game of the reserve Indians,
by which, with the kind assistance Of
the Quaker ring, the savages could
make raids on Texas in the summer,
and enjoy the hospitalities of the re-
servation during the winter, is about to
yield to the good sense of the officers
of the army.
Accounts from that quarter say that
Notwithstanding the near approach of
winter, another campaign is beingiitted
out from Fort Sill against the hostile
tribes, with the intention of disarmlng
the most refractory" The late move
ment, which ended in driving num-
ber of the savages into the staked
plains, was a good one. That region Is
not favorable for the chase or savage
warfare, and a season of rustication on
those wind swept plains and the dread
ed journey of death will teach them
more of the sweets of peace than all
the soothing palaver of bogus Quakers.

WE were glad to meet, on yesterday,
Mr.. Louis Mailer, from Goodhue
county, Minnesota, a very intelligent
German gentleman, whose visit to
Texas is for the purpose of selecting
homes for n large number of his fellow
countrymen, who have found the in
hospitable winters Of that high north
ern cline too severe for them and have
determined TO move to n genial eli
mate We were pleased TO learn from
Mr.. Mahler that Texas has far more
than realized his expectations, aud he
will return home to make immediate
preparations for immigrating hither.
He thinks at least a dozen families
will come this season, and that forty
or fifty more families will follow as
soon AS they can dispose OF their prop
erty in Minnesota. His plan is TO buy
two or three thousand acres in body,
so that the proposed emigrants can
settle near each other and establish
community where they can have
churches and schools. Mr.. Mailer is
very much pleased with the country
around Dallas and would like to locate
the colony near enough to the city TO
allow the families TO attend upon the
ministry of the German Methodist
Episcopal church, with which the most
of them are connected.
We sincerely trust he may find To-
cality to suit him, aud that it may be
the property Of some large hearted
land owner, who will not drive such a
desirable acquisition as the colony
would be from the county by putting
on an exOrbitant and speculative
price upon his land.
We know we express the sentiments
of the white people of Texas when We
extend to these families a cordial wtl-
come to our soil, aud assure them that
they will find the hearts of our people
as hospitable as the balny zepbyrs Of
our pfairies.

From Mr.. Mann, our accommodating

Robber, In Irons.

Nearly year since the News con-
tained the account of II robbery OF an
old man in the Indian territory by
three men. The old man, Mr.. Gray
son, had lived fol many years near
North Fork, in the Creek nation. The
robbers took him out and hanged him
six times before he confessed TO having
Il large amount of money buried under
the chimney of his house. The robbers
secured the money, thirty thousand
dollars in gold and silver, and got away
with il. Since that time the officers
of the law have been working the
matter up, and it has been known for
eome time that the notorious stage
robber, Jim Reed, who was killed some
weeks since, was the leader OF the band
who robbed old man Grayson. About
q week since d. w. Wilder, no less
desperate and notorious than Reed,
was corralled at Coon creek, Bosque
county, Texas. With him was wom-
an, supposed to be his mistress, ana II
confederate, supposed to be the third
party in the GraysOn robbery. All
three fought to the bitter end, and par-
ticularly the women, who fought with
the fury and passion Of tigress.
Wilder was shot three times before he
surrendered. He was put in irons, and
to-day, the 9th, was taken to Fort
Smith in charge Of deputy marshals
w. ii. Anderson and II. NJ. Wright.

where ditch eighteen inches deep
was dug on each side of an arbol, and
plenty of cow manure added to the

on well drained sandy soil, with red
clay near the surface, the vines were
loaded with fragrant fruit. As healthy

THE radical idea of the future OF the
negro appears from the following ta-
Ken from a speech of Horace May
nard, radical candidate for governor of
Tennessee, made u few days ago:
What has been the result % the In
dian race will just "a surely be the ter
mination of the African race. They
will gradually disappear from among
us until our grand children, three
quarters of century hence, will find
n negro as scarce as We now find the
Indian. Cheers. regard
this as the ultimate destiny of the he
gro race In this country.
As have said, in the course OF few
years this race will be remembered as
part of the history of our country. /
will, therefore, in conclusion, present
as the summation of all have offered
on this occasion, and ~ the two great
and prominent ideas which wish to
leave imprinted on your memory, n
regenerated south, and the euthanasia
of the black race in America.

The Dallas HERALD, very tooliSily,
SAYS: "The south has been conquered,
and the right of local self-government
expunged from the American creed"
is il any wonder that so long as snch
trash appears in the leading democrat
ic papers that there is liu kluXism,
crime and disorder all over the conn
try? The people read such thoughtless
remarks, and seeing nothing to contra
diet ii, really begin tobclievc there iS,nt
least, Il little glimmer of truth i'll 1T
and take the law into their own hands,
iustifying themselves by such lltlie
items as the above. OF course sich
statements have no effect upon people
who read and know the facts, but they
do incalculable mischief among the
ignorant.-[De DeniSon Times.
The fact that such newspapers as the
Times can be published in the south,
the chief mission of which is to slan-
der and malign the communities in
which they exist, is sufficient evidence
not only that the south is conquered,
but that it is thoroughly conquered
and Loyalty reconstructed.

TIE fools arc not all dcnA, nor have

throw In bones Of contention among
good men, who are honestly seeking
10 labor for the public welfare. The
nomination of Governor Throckmor-
ton for the congress of the United
States was perhaps rs fair, ~ candid
and unanimous an expression OF the
choice of his district us'has ever been

all the districts of the state, for all felt
that they had property in the govern

ed opposition at home is rennikhle
and vet il appears that n few dissa' fled

10 stiran element of discord, and thus,
if possible, prevent the nominee from
receiving every vote in the district.
Ii is not that we fear the slightest pos

this little occurrence. On the contra.

it will probably be to call out the vote
