Affairs in EGYPT.


The Salem Register publishes letter from
Col. A. w. Reynolds, a Nirglnian, who
served in the Confederate army, and after
the war went into the military service of the
Viceroy of Egypt. We copy the following:
l have now been in Egypt for nearly five
years, and have never been in more de-
llghtful climate. In Cairo, when the winds
blow from the desert, it is for many days
oppresslvely hot, but the days of summer
are about like the climate of Texas. We
have few local diseases There have been
no epidemics since I have been here, and
az our sanitary matters are now so well reg
ulated we have no fear Of them.
Under the rule of our good and great
Viceroy the country is fast assuming impor-
lance. He has built numerous railroads,
connecting all the places of Importance,
and grand canals, watering the country in
every direction public buildings rearing
their heads in every city. When came
here, Cairo, his capital, was entirely orien-
tai; now it has assumed the beauty and
grandeur of an European CITY, with popu-
lation of about five hundred thousand in
habitants. The opera house is one of the
finest in the world, and in the winter there
is no gayer capital in Europe than Cairo.
Most of the expenses, however, are borne
by his Highness, who expends millions
He is one of the richest princes in the
world, and pregnant with liberality. he is
not one Of the old Turks we used to read
about when we were boys, but as courteous
and ''suave" as any old Virginia gentleman.
To his American officers he is as kind and
considerate as any one IN the world could
be, and in return we all feel devoted to him
in fact our service here is pleasant. He gives
Us palaces to live in, and an ample share of
his finances. or course, he does not fill our
pecuniary reservoirs to repletion, but quite
enough. So we have no reason 10 complain.
We always have clean shirt and shilling.
During the .feteo, which take place in the
winter, we all 90 to Cairo to. the receptions,
where the ladies enjoy the balls and operas,
and the gentlemen the dinners and races,
and we all have gay old time generally.
We have very little American dissipation.
Old rye and apple jack are not inhabitants
of the land, but you can have pyramids OF
sheep meat and cataracts of coffee.

MUSICAL TELEeRAPHY,-Many of our citi-

Of this city. delivered last winter in the City
Hall. One Of the Doctors plans is to con.
meet by electrical attachments" ten or more
pianos for concert purposes, so that ono or
two performers can play upon any number Of
them simultaneously, in manner to render
remarkable volume, as well as fine expression
in music. The Centennial Commission have
reported favorably 10 make this eleclro-music

TRINIDAD, Col, July 2, 1874. This lit
tie city is in furore Of excitement this
evening. The Indians arc on the war path,
killing and scalping men, women and chill
dren. The government need cling 70 the
delusion no longer that the Indians arc
guilty Of s'mere depredationsp
Yesterday four persons were killed ana
scalped by them, within forty miles Of this
place, and little girl carried away captive.
Later news tonight reports two other men
and two women killed.
All day yesterday a train was surrounded
on the Copulin, the men at last advices de-
Tending themselves heroically. The CHM
marion country, about sixty miles from here.
is entirely oyerrun by them, and doubtless
the sequel Will reveal the sicxening truth
that manyof the ranchmen arc murdered.
The savages had collected up 10 last
evening, about two hundred head OF horses
-one unfortunate man losing his entire
herd uf fifty head, being all he possessed
Of this worlds goods. From the best in
formation can gather, the savagcs number
about six hundred, divided into bands OF
about one hundred each, and appearing sim-
ultancously in different quarters, took every.
body by surprise.

HINTS OK SLEEP. To literary men,
preachers, teachers, lawyers, doctors, jour
nalists, and brain workers in general, the
following hints are exceedingly worth at
tention The fact is, that as life becomes
concentrated, and its pursuits more eager,
short sleep and early rising become impossi-
bic. We take more sleep than our ances-
tors, and We take more sleep because we
want more. SIX hours sleep will do very
well for ploughman or bricklaycr or any
other man who has no exhaustion but that
produced by manual labor, and the sooner
he takes it after the labor the better. But
for the man whose labor is mental, the
stress IS on his brain and nervous system,
and for him who is tired in the evening
with day mental application, neither early
to bed nor early to rise is wholesome. He
needs letting down to the level Of TepOse.
The longer interval between the active use
Of the brain and the retirement to bed, the
better his chance Of sleep and refreshment.
To him an hour after midnight is probably
as good as two hours before It, and even
then his sleep win not 50 completely restore
him as It viii his neighbor who is physi-
cally tired. His best sleep Is IN the early
morning hours, when all the nervous excite
ment has passed away, and be Is in absolute
rest.

FoR Sunday evening thirteen
prisoners took their departure from the Travis
county jail for their future abode at the city
of Huntsville, and, as they filed through the
streets on their way TO the depot, chained in
twos, their appearance presented rather
sad spectacle. To look upon grown up
human beings, in possession OF all their
natural faculties, chained together and
manacled, on their way to a prison where the
doors of liberty are to be closed against them
for years, Is sight by no means pleasant
Once they were helittle darlings Of hopeful
loving mothers; but now, after one-half of a
lifetime has been left behind them, they thus
appear before the public view, bringing sad
ness and sorrow to the hearts Of parents
and relatives, and dishonor and disgrace fol-
lows them on their way to prisons but the
saddcst thought Of all is that their disgrace will
soon be forgotten. and in few years many who
arc now young and innocent, and receiving
the dotlngs Of loving parents, will follow in
their wake, and so on, perhaps, to the end Of
time Some two or three hundred persons
copyrighted at the depot to see the prisoners
before they took their departure, few Of
whom tried TO be cheerful and happy, while
others gave vent TO their feelings by shedding
tears.

THE Stock LAw.-The Sheriff of McLen-
nan county addressed letter to Mr. Charles
b. PeaTe, District Attorney Of the Thirty
third Judicial District of Texas, on the sub
jet Of the stock law passed by the last Legis-
lature. The law has been the subject Of much
complaint, because it has been so construed
here as to require any person selling horse
10 have bill Of sale made and acknowledged
before a notary, and the animal inspected by
the inspector or his deputy-the fees amount
ing to one dollar and ten cents In relation to
this construction Of the law, the district at
torney, Charles B. Pearre, says:
:" By section thirty-eight all persons are pro
hibited from purchasing any animals, or hides
of cattle, without obtaining bill Of sale from
the owner or his agents, under penalty of
not less than twenty nor more than one hun
bred dollars for each animal so purchased.
This act nowhere requires the owners of ami
mails TO have them inspected, unless they wish
TO drive them out of the county They may
sell their animals in the county of their range
10 any person, without having them inspected,
and are liable TO no punishment, but the per
son purchasing any animal must obtain bill
of sale from the owner, or his agent, or he be-
comes liable TO the penalty of the law and this
bill Of sale must be in writing. certified to by
the Inspector and shall recite in fun the num-
Der, kind and age of animal sold, together with
al the marks and brands.
The opinion of the district attorney is very
lengthy, and we make the above extract, as
applies to cases of neighborhood trading
which have caused many TO grumble very
much ut the law as heretofore construed.
