Gus. James Fl. Standish, single man, who owned
the farm and lived with the See family, renamed
at home. On the return OF See and mis- father the
vile OF George See charged Standish with having
insulted her. This led TO an alteration IN
the course OF which Standish seized hot
hatlrOn rom the stove, with which he
struck see on the head, telling him to the door, in
when position Standish continued to strike him
with the iron until the mans head was crushed 70
an unshapely mass and his brains scattered over
the door. Standish was arrested soon afterwards
and brought to saratoga, where he is now in the
lookup. None OF the parties appear to have been
in liquor.

ago. he Is q single man, Of some property and
OF no apparent evil habits. In his cell today no

: REACT1oNARY MOVEMENTS IN CH1NA.-The
old national spirit Of the Chinese people
begins again to reveal itself. For some years
past it seemed as if the Old barrier walls
of Chinese exclusivism would at no distant
day be completely broken down. The Eu-
ropean and the American found themselves
comfortable in the Chinese cities, and indica-
tons were not wanting that the old clvlliza-
ton was yielding to the new. A reaction,
according to our latest accounts, has set in.
She foreigner is feared, but he is hated even
more than he is feared To such pitch of ex-
element has the Chinese mind been worked up
that the government has notified the foreign
Ministers in Pekin that it cannot guarantee
the lives Of foreigners resident in Ten-tsin.
The naval authorities, it is said, have ordered
vessels of war to the disturbed city to protect
the foreigners as far as is possible. 1t is too
late now for China to go back, and if the So
called foreigners suffer the Chinese govern
ment will be brought to strict account. The
relations of China with almost all the great
Western Powers are fixed by solemn treaties.
These treaties China cannot be allowed to
violate with impunity.

Ihe Fln0nccs ana Future OF Tcxas.
The financial condition of Texas, as shown
in Governor Coke's recent message to the
Legislature the full text of which is now
before us, is one of remarkable strength. The
entire bonded debt is stated to be 81, 661, 131
due to school fund, $806,3O6; floating debt,
about 100000. In addition to these there is
o claim in New York, on bonds deposited as
collaterals not over $500, 900, and railroad
claims for subsidies not yet adjusted which
will not exceed $3,000,000. The current re-
quirements of the State for the present year
are March and September interest $50, 700;
frontier defence, sos, GIG; appropriations for
1873 not paid, about $500, 600; ordinary ex-
penses for 1874, $500, 900. To meet these the
Treasury holds, cash, $50, 173 unpaid taxes
for 1873, 1902, 100; bonds deposited in New
York, $500, 900, and the income from taxes for
the present year. Governor Coke informs the
Legislature that there is no need to increase
the rate of taxation, advises them to practise
economy in the appropriations says he shall
pay the March and September interest on the
debt out Of current MEANS asks for authority
to fund the floating debt settle claims in New
York and sell the bonds deposited there, and
pithily remarks that ''we ought to settle what
we now owe and hereafter pay as we co.
With such an exhibit and such principles of
finance Texas ought surely to be one of the
most prosperous States in the Union. Her
local government is now in the hands Of the
white population, who constitute an immense
majority of the voters ; emigration is rapidly
pouring over her vacant lands, her crops are
large, her people out Of debt and all her
public enterprises are marching steadily and
soldly forward without beseging the money
centres of the world for usurious loans on
doubtful paper. Galveston, her chief COM
smercial port, is already the terminus of over
two thousand miles of railway, pervading the
great far West from ST. Louis to Dakota in
the north, Denver in the west and San Anto-
MO in the southwest, and, to all appearances,
will become the New York of the Gulf. Gov
ernor Coke is elected for four years, and if he
will cling to John Randolph's motto, which he
has adopted, "Pay as you go" the State will
not distrust the future. --reyssp.ssssSSs.ss>--..

The Arrest Of General BaeZ-POssibie
DEVELOPMENTS OF Peculiar Interest to
Republicans.
The arrest OF General Baez, ex-President of st.
Domingo, In New York, on charges made by Davis
Hatch, citizen OF Connecticut, has revived an
interest in the st. Domingo controversy In official
circles. 1t Is thought that il the case is ever
brought to trial 1t may lead to revelations which
will complete the history OF the nexation pro-
ject. The case OF Hatch was made q prominent
feature III the Senate discussion three years ago,
when Senator Ferry, OF Connecticut, presented
the papers, and Senator Sumner made them the
basis of Violent attack on the administration
and the annexation scheme. Hatch claims that
his case was purposely overlooked by the State
Department Tor reasons then considered inimical
to the interests OF annexation.
