Az OUTRAGE AND NECESSARY
LAw.-Upon the trial of an action for
divorce, in orr county last week, ii was
developed that the husband, Philip SUIT
ton, while living with his wife, appar-
emily on good terms with her, had at
tempted to hire two men, through
friends Of his, to attempt her seduction,
in such way that he might be able to
get proof which would enable him to
obtain divorce. This is the second
instance Of this most infamous outrage
upon civilization which has been de-
veloped in the courts of this county in
the last few years. The first so outraged
all sense Of decency, that it was thought
no other being so low and mean could
be found to attempt it. But the evil
dence shows the contrary to be the case,
and we think it exhibits such a tendency
towards total depravity az demands a
legal check at the hands of our legisla-
tors. When man is 80 lost TO oil sense
OF decency as TO attempt TO procure the
seduction of his own wife, he ought 10
he recognized by the law as felon, and
q law should be enacted by the present,
legislature, which will consign such
characters, when proven, to tho State .
Prison. as dangerous to tho morals and
well-being Of society, and fit only for
confinement with Others guilty of high
crimes. We hope Representative Goss-
man will sec to 1t.

DONATION PARTIxS The good people
of Ireland and vicinity celebrated the
holidays by holding donation parties. at
the residence Of Rev. Mr. Julian, Metho-
dist. on Christmas night, and at that Of
Rev. Mr. Galloway, Cumberland Pres

very pleasant affairs. and the substantial
tokens OF appreciation left at each Of

One OF our prominent business men
has learned the value of following the
advice of the above quotation from
one OF his late advertisements.
In August last he concluded to do
some poster advertising, and called at
The HERALD office to learn the price
of about sixty thousand sheets, and
through an error ia our estimate and
partly misunderstanding on his part,
he sent his order to st. Louis, think
ing to get his printing In time to be
posted during the first week of Sept
ember, before the Fall rains set In.
An error of the ST. Louis printer
rendered two or three letters necessary
before the work was commenced.
Though the order was finally shipped
October 10Th, long after the whole
should have been posted, through
some delay In transportation 1t arrived
yesterday, damaged fully one-third Its
value The gentleman now finds
that the st. Louis order cost him about
three dollars more than The HERALD
would have charged im--had he got 1t
when he wanted and in good order
but taking into consideration damage,
delay and the trimmings, he finds that
his work has cost him an additional Of
at least twenty per cent. on Dallas
prices. Hereafter that small deduc-
ton would not induce him to send an
other printing order to st. Louis.
The order being incomplete and SC
unsatisfactory, The HERALD job office
Is now finishing out the same, which
should have been completed and the
work distributed long ago. Our bust
ness men con learn lesson ftom

GOSSIP AND QUERIES.
Several communications are crowd

issue.

To the city Ed tor Of The Herald
DALLAS, November II, 1875.
SIR-Having confidence IN your
generosity and perfectly willing to
favor all classes OF humanity especial
ly "hard up'' lawyers, haue conclud-
ed to make request In the name, and
In behals Of the last named individuals.
But before doing SO | will give you my
reasons, which l trust will be statisfac-
tory.
The casual observer on walking past
the county Jail on Houston street has
doubtless observed number of
lawyers, better known by the Greek
name of SIYsTEs." These poor fell
lows hang around the Jail fence daily,
and in all kinds of weather, for the
purposed Of obtaining the list of
arrivals.
Now, what ! wish you to do Is TO
furnish this down-trodden class with a
correct list of daily arrivals vt this
famous boarding place in your morn
ing issue, and so relieve them from
their tedious job of sneaking around
the Jail gate for the purpose of pump
ing Ine BuaTus. II.
The communication of "Z.n is quite
pertinent, and we only wonder that
this subject has not been agitated long
before by the better class of our
criminal LAYERS. We noticed in the
Memphis Appeal, few days ago, an
article ON this subject, the substance OF
which was that this custom of drum
ming in the Jail had become such a
nuisance and so unjust TO lawyers who
were too dignified to resort to such un.
professional ways to obtain practice
that the matter had been brought be-
fore Judge Flippn of the Criminal
Court by one of the guilty parties be-
ing arraigned for unprofessional con.
duct. The subject was carefully con,
sidered, and his Honor finally de.
lIvered singing rebuke to those
lawyers who disgraced their profes,
sion by this practice. He closed his
decision by issuing an order to the
sheriff of Shelby county, which COM
manded him in the future not to per.
NIT any lawyer to have communica.
ton with prisoner, unless the latter
should especially request the inter

Our citizens last night awaited them
selves of the opportunity of witnessing
the performance of a iirst-class dra-
matte troupe, from the New Orleans
Varieties Theatre, of which Mrs. Hen
rietta Chanfrau is lessee and Mr.. G. w.
Tayleure the manager. The play put

Misplaced Confidence,

Our efficient deputy sheriff, w. w.
Hobbs, was on yesterday the victim OF
misplaced confidence, and this time ia
the tune of about seventy-five odd dol.
lars. The manner in which he was
victimized Is rs follows: 1t seems a
young man whom he had known for
several years, named John A. Neville,
went to work for Mr.. Hobbs on his
farm situated a few miles from the city
and being sober and Industrious, and
to all appearances honest, Mr.. Hobbs
entrusted everything about the place to
his care, while he attended to his Off
cial duties. And hitherto Neville had
proven himself worthy of the conf
dence reposed in him, but on yesterday
morning early, Neville started with a
team Of mules and wagon to Barton's
gin for the purpose of hauling home
two bales Of cotton just ginned, but
instead OF taking 1t home he drove into
town and disposing of the cotton, at q
good price, he pocketed the wealth and
left for parts unknown. Mr.. Hobbs
being at home wondered at his delay in
returning, and having something to
speak to him about concluded to come
on to town expecting to meet him.
Arriving here he learned the state of
affairs, and proceeded to hunt up his
team, which he soon found at wagon
yard where Neville had left them; the
cotton was afterwards found In posses
sion Of Mr.. M. Wohl who had pur-
chased It Of Neville. The demand of
Mr.. Hobbs for the restoration of his
cotton was of course refused by the
purchaser, and we understand Mr..
Hobbs has entered suit for the recovery
Of II.
