Head Of the thievfHE
Harauders.

NEW ORLEANS, November PA
Brownsville speciSl 20 the Galveston
NC1US says that the cattle Uecsptured by
Rock have been sold in Mstam0ros fOi
The benefit OF the owners. General Cor
Jena was the purchaser. He paid four
inllars per head for the best and two
dollars for the inferior. He buys all
kinds OF animals and puts them ON one
of his ranches. The drove which crossed
&C FL Hands rancho, sixteen miles from
Brownsville, consisted of two hundred
mead. They belonged mostly to James
G.. Brown, sheriff Of Cameron
county. He waited on Judge
CASTILLO MOneterO, OF MatamurOs,
and procured an order 20 pursue and re-
cover the stolen cattle. The order was
placed ia the hands of Jesus Nillareai
and others on this side They followed
the trail to the rancho of RencOT de Ia
Capeiia, fifty miles from MatamOrOs
Rafael CesneTOs. the owner OF the
rancho, told them they could not enter
his pasture. After seeing Judge Mon
terO's order he went with them, where
they found one hundred and seventeen
head OF cattle The robbers hadRelect-
I'd and removed the best. They then
proceeded toward MatamorOs with the
cattle, but were met by three policemen
who had orders rom General C0rtena,
mayor OF MatamOras, to take the cattle,
on the ground that Americans had no
right to pursue and recover stolen prop
erty in Mexico. Villareal exhibited the
order of the Judge. One policeman was
sent to report to COftena, the others
stayed with Viilareal. Saturday night
last the cattle were penned at Puentas
Vertles, three miles from MatOmorOs
During the night COrtena took them by
force and removed them 10 pen of his
own at Lsllarean. Sunday, Mr.. Brown
went to MatamOrOs and Lailarean with
Cortena. The latter counted one hun
dred and ten cattle. He demanded the
other seven from VillareaI, and was
told that two had been eaten on the
road, and five left with COrtena, who de-
mandsd ten dollars for heIfer of Cap
tain Kings, which had been killed. He
said he held Villareal accountable for the
missing animals. The sheriff found
himself surrounded by GregOTio, Rode
Uquez, Joaquin, TreverO, and 9th.
ers, who had escaped from the
Brownsville Jail. More than one
half Of the cattle belonged
70 Brown. COrtena refused to give them
up. He pretended he had been made to
pay heavily for property reclaimed from
Texas. This is untrue, and was said as
a pretext for levyiDg blackmail on
Brown. Cortena said he would leave the
case 70 the judge, yet be had just violat-
ed the judges order by seizing the cattle.
Mr.. Brown is in MatamorOs now.

THE SAFE BURGLARY.
Points Made ny Mr.. Harrington In Ar
EumenT I'm HE Defense-The Case
Not Yet Concluded.

WASHINGTON, November N.-In the
safe burglary trial to-day, Harrington,
in bis argument, cited various cases and
decisions which have been made against
the practice of seizing private paper fer
the past six centuries, and denounced
the action Of the government as ille-
gal, indecent and infamous. In regard
TO the missing telegram, he said it was
for his interest to keep that telegram
intact, FOR the government did not know
who wrote that dispatch, and before
they could introduce it, they must
prove that he Harrington wrote it
he would not have il destroyed,
under any circumstances, and he had as
much right to say that the counsel for
the government had distracted that
telegram as they had to impute its alb
sence TO him. They might not have
done it themselves, but they were sur
rounded by band of men who wtr-
used to such cspeTs, and they could have
picked up this dispatch and have eaten
II up as easily as they could have eaten
one of Welker's dinners. He spoke
about the release OF Benton, and So d he
only did what he considered his duty,
ana what he always would do and what
ne would do again, and that was to
give every man his liberty on bail when
he case warranted it. Al this very time
he also suggested that Hayes could
procure his release on bail. Harrington
spoke nearly two hours, and closed by
urging his own vindicati0n, and declar-
ing his willingness to leave every
thing-his life, reputation and honor
IN the hands OF the jury; and saying
that in all his official. acts he had never
yet tarnished his name or his honor
The court here took q recess. After re-
cess the court was adjourned till Mon
day, when Mr.. Dsvidge, counsel for the
defense. will decide whether or not he
viii address the Jury.

In our issue Of yesterday we gave
prominence to report which reached
US, by what we considered reliable au-
thority, that the Tennessee river bridge,
on the Memphis and Charleston rail-
road, had been swept away by the ter
rible tornado which visited, like be-
som Of destruction, the beautiful little
city OF Tuscumbia, Alabama, on Sun
day evening last, aud that the vest
ward bound passenger train had been
precipitsted into the frlghtful chasm.
We now aud that this report was
ALL A MISTAKE,
and that the bridge, instead OF being at
Tuscumbia, is at Decatur, forty miles
east Of the line Of the tornado, and was,
Of course, entirely unharmed. The
bridge over the same stream at Florence,
Alabama, was also untouched by The
fearful storm. We regret exceedingly
having given credence to this
FALSE REPORT,
and hope our exchanges will note this
correction for the benefit Of the travelling
public. The real facts are that a small
bridge at Tuscumbia was carried away
by the storm, and the rails, with fish-bar
joints, were torn from the ties and
moved out Of place for a distance Of iif-
teen or twenty yards west of the bridge.
eastward mail-train on the Charles
ton road ran OFF the track when it struck
the displaced rails, and the engine, mail
and baggage-csrs sided down the en-
leaving the passenger and
upon the track.
no PASSENGER WERE INJURED.
The mail trains are running with their
usual regularity, requiring only q few
minutes for transfer at the bridge, and
it is thought thatfreight and other trains
will psss over the new bridge by Thurs
day. In the meantime, passengers are
not incenvenienced or delayed by this
accident, which is the result OF one of
the most terrific tornadOes that has ever
swept through the country.
CAPTAIN W. J. ROSS,
the very eff :ient general superintendent
Of the Memphis and Charleston rail-
road, is now at the bridge with a large
force Of men, working night and day,
and will not sleep until he has it thor
oughly repaired.
