Dallas can well boast OF her reception
to the great chieftain. No grander or
more enthusiastic reception was ever
rendered II private citizen than that
accorded Mr.. Davis yesterday. The
city WED with the country in honor
ing him, and the feelings of all, both
northern and southern, were that it
marked an era of good will and har-
mony that must rebound to the public
good. Mr.. Davis may well feel proud
of his visit to Texas, and THE HERALD
feels certain that from no spot within
our borders will he carry kinder
or more pleasing memories than from
Dallas, nor at any place has he left
more favorable and endearing reccl-
lections. ut was II spontaneous out
pouring of the people to do honor to

| John G.. Breckenridge died at his ma
tive home in Lexington, Kentucky,
May II, 1875, only forty hours ago.
Though not unexpected, the event will
carry pang to every true heart in
these United States. That such man
"A son of the great west, endowed
both by nature and education with ex-
traordinary attributes and distinguish
ed so early in life ly brilliant service
in the councils and cabinet of the
country, rs well rs in the field, should
die in the prime of life in his fifty
fifth years. source of profound grief
to all who appreciate the noble in life.
No man in the past history of our coun-
try, at so carly an age, has ever had a
more brilliant or honorable career.
Twice elected to congress as strict
democrat in the old whig district of
Henry Clay-once over the celebrated
Robert =. Letcher, and again over the
venerable Leslie Coombes--in 1856 he
was elected vice president of the United
States. For four years he. presided
over the senate with dignity and ac-
ceptability never equalled except by
John c. Calhoun and George Clinton.
From that exalted position lie was
transferred by his native state to seat
in the senate over which he had pre-
sided, and there he stood when the
war commenced. At the last moment,
and only when all hope of reconcilia-
ton had fled, he resigned his seat
and took service in the confeder-
ate army. His gallantry, noble
bearing and pre-eminent abilities
at once made him man of mark. He
was pronounced the finest looking
man in either army. AT Shilo, at Muir
freesboro, at Baton Rouge, Chicka-
manga and on other sanguinary fields,
he rose higher and higher in the es-
teen of The army, the government aud
the people. AT the close of the strug-
gle he was secretary of war under
President Davis. He sought Temporal
ry exile in Europe and Canada, and
then returned to his native heath to be
embraced by the friends of his youth
of all parties. 1f
John C. Breckenridge has lived and
died model man, without spot or
blemish. He was a great lawyer, a
wise statesman, an impassioned ora
tor, a great soldier, and noble citizen.
The announcement of his death in our
columns to-day will sadden thousands
of Texan hearts, but to none will it
come with such a sense of personal
loss as to his illustrious chief, our guest /
this day, Jefferson Davis, TO whom he
was bound by the tenderest cords that
ever cemented human friendship.
Honored be his memory, and peace
TO his remains. As we welcome our
guest to-day, let us drop tear to the
of Kentueky's noblest son,
he pure and gifted Breckenridge.

A Misunderstanding MaIady.

That insomnia, or inability to sleep, has be-
come very prevalent OF late years, Is suffi-
ciently evidenced by the fact that number
less remedies have been introduced within
the last decade specially intended for its
cure, and that now sedatives are continually
cropping up. But no medical agent has so
widely and clearly established its claims as
a genuine soporific as Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. That II removes this brain-destroy-
ing inability far more effec'ually than the
bromides, chlorals and valerinates In use, is
not to be wondered at when we consider
that such drugs act only on the brain. which
is not the source OF the evil, while the bitters
rectify the alimentary disturbances which
originate 10. II Is admitted by physicians
that dyspepsia and non-assimilation OF the

party of six Indians stole some horses,
on the eth, from a stock owner by the
name of Loven. The Jack county
rangers, commanded by Lieutenant
Long, were soon upon the trail. A
running fight took place, about seven
miles west OF } acksboro and about three
miles south of the Griffin road. Four
bucks and one squaw were killed, and
duly scalped by the victorious rangers.
This was upon the Sth. On the morn

Richardson, went to view the scene of
action, and with the assistance of Mr..
Werner, the hospital steward, cut of
three of their heads and brought them

| To the Editor of the Dallas Herald:
In spite of military vigilance our red
brothers still keep up their visits with
annoying pertinacity. A young man,
a few days ago, while horse hunting
in the extreme western part of Palo
Pinto county came upon two Indians
leisurely driving drove of stolen
stock in the direction of Fort Sill. The
surprise, of course, was mutual and
disagreeable. However, between self
possession and good Henry rifle the
white man succeeded in releasing the
red vagahonds of their coveted prize,
and hurried them of to the music of
the needle-gun, which, in this case, did
not charm the savage breast.
Between small stands of corn and
large stands of grasshoppers, farming
matters about here are anything but
o. X. The wheat, however, thanks to
the contrarness of nature, is holding
its own, and looking well in spite of
the scarcity of rain.
The telegraph will shortly be carried
to Fort Griffin. Posts may now be
seen sticking up in Fort Richardson on
their way west What will the In
dams have to say about the "lightning
tongue" their name for it?
A small BOY living on Boone's creek,
Parker county, was recently bitten by
a polecat, proof positive that the "var-
mint" can do something besides smell.
Cattle in Palo Pinto county have to
be yarded at night, and herded in the
day time, owing to the great difficulty
among stockmen of not knowing the
difference between mine and thine.
