JrA TAYLOR ARREsTED.-A man supposed
Ito be Jim Taylor, the notorious outlaw Of
the Wesley Hardin gang, was yesterday
arrested in this city by a deputy United
States marshal. The party arrested said
his name was Jim Taylor, aud that he was
q cousin Of the notorious OUTLAW, bat de-
MED having any connection with him in the
Dewitt county troubles; that he had lived
seven miles from Austin, on the Burnett
road, for the past year, aud that his father
in-law lived in this city, near Mr..
Mceary's. A pistol was found on
Taylor, and It is believed by the friends
Of Mr.. Stephens. Of the House, that he and
Others have been hanging abouE Austin for
several days past to assassinate him. In
deed, rumor has been rife for the past three
or four days that Hardin himself, for whom
a reward OF $4,000 was recently offered by
the Governor. was in the city to assassin nate
Mr. Stephens. but We have heretofore re
Trained from speaking Of these rumors with
the hope thatif Hardin oranS Of Us crowd
were here they might be arrested. Tay or
was yery much agitatod when arrested, IS
pscially when taken to Gen. Steele's oilic i,
and be seemed to fear being moLbed. At
slse Mayors Office two Mex.cans, who ha
sworn out a warrant against a man for
shooting at them the other night at grog
shop down in Five Points, were brought
in TO recognize Taylor as the man who did
rthe shooting, and they Instantly said that be
was the man, and so we presume he will at
least have to answer 70 that charge, as also
for carrying deadly weapons. Several sus-
picious looking characters have been
seen about this city for several days
past, often on good horses, rushing
about after night, firing into peoples houses,
etc. and nov. that an arrest has been made
the whole matter should be sifted to thobOt-
tom. The State capital should not tolerate
desperadoism in any form.

''You have seen pictures of shepherds
with the proverbial crook in their hands.
| didn't t.think party could be a shep-
herd without this crook, any more than
q man could be leader of an orchestra
without pair Of pants. | was glad
that the first man whom / saw tending
sheep carried one Of those crooks. |
didn't know what crook was for, but
always believed it was a badge Of the
occupation, whose origin / could not
fathom, handed down from century to
century since the time when sheep were
invented. Imagine my genuine disgust,
when saw this shepherd use the sacred
crook to secure the straying animals BY
catching hold of their hind legs and
tripping them up. The awful truth
came upon me like a fash. and sai
down heavily. a brOken-hearted man
l had thought it a beautiful emblem
and it proves to be hind leg snatcher
Thus fOated the wind from anOthe
sweet vision Of youth. | must haE

How TILToN SPENDS HIS TINE Now
A-DAYs.-On the very day that Judge
Nelson delivered his charge to the jury,
Theodore Tilton resumed those labors
necessary to the maintenance of himself
and so much of his family as the late
terrible ordeal has left him. In proof
of the application, industry, and remark
able fertility of the man. it is only nee
essary to state the preparation of a new
book, which he began on the above-men-
toned, has so far progressed that he ex-
poets to be able to put it to the press
by the middle of next month. The IL
tie he has selected for it is, "a Legend,
and it will make an octave volume of
between 25O and 500 pages. The re-
sumption of literary labor seems to have
had a happy effect in partly relieving
his mind from the heavy sense of his
domestic misfortunes, and enabling him
to disperse some of those shadows that
have so long darkened his life. He ris-
es early, works hard until late in the
, afternoon, dimes about o'clock, and
then refreshes himself by five or SIX
miles walk. The only discomfort of
these pedestrian tours is the attention
which his familiar and striking figure
always attracts. What Swift describes
as one of the pleasures of fame-to be
pointed out in the crowd and overhear
the remark, ''That is he; there he goes, :"
is evidently not a pleasure to him. His
prospects for the future are most fatter-
ing. Besides such work with his pen as
he has mapped out for himself, in addi-
tiOn to the book now approaching COM
pletion, he is urgently solicited to de-
liver lectures in various parts of the
country, and finds the demand utterly
beyond his power to meet it.-Brook-

The outrages by tramps-and we fear
they are not all by tramps-have be-
come so frequent and alarming that the
law is Intellectual as a preventive. The
scamps too frequently escape, and when
they do not the laws delay is too great
to infuse any terror among them at the
present time. In quiet way people
are arming themselves to an unprece-
dented extent. and in some localities
women are becoming expert shots. 1t is
a deplorable state of affairs, but self-de-
fence is the first law of nature.-St. Al

WHY SOME PEOPLE ARE PooR.-Cof.
fee, tea, pepper and spices are left to
stand open and lose their strength.
Potatoes in the cellar grow, and the
sprouts are not removed until the pota-
toes become worthless.
Brooms are never hung up and are
soon spoiled.
Nice handled knives are thrown into
hot water. .ta sEaa
Rags, string and paper are thrown in
to the fire.
The -four is sifted in wasteful man
ner, and the bread pan is left with the
dough sticking to it.
Clothes are left on the line to whip
to pieces in the wind.
Tubs and barrels are left in the sun
to dry and fall apart.
Dried fruits are not taken care of in
season and become wormy.
Pork spoils for want of salt and beef
because the brine wants scalding.
Bits of meat, vegetables. bread and
cold puddings are thrown away, when
they might be warmed, steamed and
saved as good as new.

The Parsons Breeches.

parsOn some few years ago,
One morn before be breaches.
Goes 70 his closet and takes down
An ancient pair of breeches.
They have not been worn for many a day;
They with dust and cobwebs filled
While some hornets in their reeesses
Have been inclined TO build
The parson draws the breeehes on;
Puts on his coat and beaver;
Then takes his cane and starts for church,
Thinking his sermon over.
The hymns are sung; the prayer is made;
He starts to read the text,
But stops the people wondering look
To see what's coming next
lie gazes round above the throngi
Raised his hand on high;
But quickly brings it down again
With a slap upon his thigh.
fIe forward steps then back again;
Then says, or rather sereeehes,
"The grace of God is in my heart,
But the devil is in my breeches."
The congregation stare around.
They think the parson crazy
He takes his hot and cane and leaves
At a gait by no lazy.
His pace he keeps, up hill and down,
Until his home he reaches;
lie then, within his chamber locked,
Quickly takes of those breeches.
