THE REASON WHY.

The question is daily asked by thousands Of
our citizens, why it is the IXL Bitters have
achieved such popularity with the public, and
have such an immense sale:" The reason is
because they are an old and well established
article, and are made from the most choice
herbs and roots; the many who have tried them,
testify to their beneficial qualities and have no
hesitation in recommending item to their
afflicted friends.
They are acknowledged to be the best tonic
and recuperator known; they build up the sys-
TEN, and impart strength to the weak and ex-
hausted, and are endorsed and recommended by
our most eminent Physicians las per certificates
en- each bottle). To those afflicted with the
Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Loss of Appetite, as
blood purifier they surpass all other so called
tonics which have lately been placed in the
market.
No family should be without them. Sold

The New Registration Law.

In this edition of our paper is promul-
gated act No 155 of The last Legislature,
described in it's title as an act prov iding for
revision and correction of the lists Of regis
tered voters in this State, the appointment
of officers to carry out its objects, and pre-
scribing their duties and the penalties for its
violation. This act was approved July "a,
1874. 1t is comprehensive and ample, and
clothes officers of registration and election
with powers sufficient to insure the ballot
against illegal voting. and preserve its
purity. 1t will he seen that section forty
provides for new and complete registra-
ton to be made in every parish and precinct
in the State prior to the next general cleo
tion to be held in November. We recon-
mend the careful perusal Of this act to our
readers

Life In Texas.

The following romantic paragraphs are
from the last number Of the Corpus Christi
Gazette:
Week before last favorite dog of Mr..
John Hinnant's, on the Lagarate creek,
suddenly appeared to be rabid, taking in
his ronte to the town of Lagartaville several
ranches and sheep camps, at all of which
he bit number of dogs. He was followed
but without success, since which time he
has not been heard of. On the following
day the dogs he had bitten, quite number,
were all killed
On the sixteenth instant the son of the
man murdered near Salt Creek some
months since, passed through Santa Ger
trudes on his way to Brownsville. His
father, at the time of his death; was in pos
session Of some 500 or $500 in gold. He
at once recognized his fathers knife, and
seemed very much affected, bursting into
tears. His mother and father were Italians,
and both met death in the same manner,
the former being murdered in Bagdad
during the late war.
Mr.. William Chamberlain informs us
that while en- route to Captain Kings
rancho, about nine miles the other side of
the POiste station, he found the skeletons
Of two men, lying side by side, who had
evidently been murdered some months ago.
One of them was shot in the top of the
head, and the skull of the other was
crushed as with some heavy instrument. A
few shreds of clothing were lying taround.
but nothing was found that would lead to
an identification.
BY reference to our correspondence from
Conception, it will be seen that CAPTAIN
Wallace has adopted wise course in reg
istering the names of those living in that
district of country. 1t will not only assist
him in srresting thieves and murderers. but
will be of invaluable aid in enabling the
civil authorities to ascertain the where
abouts of and in making the arrest Of par.
ties against whom indictments are now
standing. Criminals from almost every
county west of the Colorado rlver seek that
quarter to evade the pursuit of the law, but
the course pursued will eventually put an
efectual stop to all such proceedings.
