GALVESTON ASLEEP.

What, with the appeals made to the
people of Galveston to come to the res
cue of the commerce of that city by
subscribing to the stock of the Santa
Fe road, and the various plans to cir
cumvent Mr.. Charles Morgan's new
Houston scheme, the Galveston papers
are very interesting reading. The wolf
is at the door in the shape of II possible
serious injury to the trade of the place
by Mr.. Morgan, and the lack of more
railway communication with the coun-
try naturally tributary to Galveston.
1t is difficult to understand how such
shrewd and prosperous business COM
munity as that of the Island City can
hesitate to give all the aid to railways
necessary to increase her trade. Yet
the extraordinary spectacle is pre-
scented of mere business men being so
blind to their own interests rs to neg
lect the positive means of building up
additional trade. The country through
which the road runs is ore of the
healthiest and wealthiest In Texas. To
reach it will be to make the fortune of
the road, and to increase the cotton
and produce receipts ofthc port of Gal
weston fully a fourth.
The lethargy of the capitalists is per-
fectly inexplicable, and if INDUCED in
much longer will end In forfeit
ure of the charter of the road, and
the country tapped by some city of
more enterprise and nerve. We feel
in northern Texas a great pride In Gal
weston, and want to see her pat forth
the strength she has and control the
business which is hers by right, and II
is to be hoped that she will not wait
like terrapin any longer before mov-
ing, for Mr.. Morgan is in dead earnest
about putting his coal of fire on the
back of Galveston, and she has the
wharf monopoly and her own supine-
ness alone to thank for being between
the upper and lower milestone. d.
The Galveston News, like faithful
sentinel, sounds the alarm of danger
ahead, and we re-echo il TO save our
young giant from a slumber that will
be fatal If protracted.

TIE CITy's DALLAS AND WICHITA
nDNDh

The purchase Of the Dallas and Wich.
ita railway, with the prospect ofa por-
ton of it being put inlrunning ORDER IL
the best thing that has happened foi
US for some time. A narrow guage
railway that can be made to reach our
great coal, iron and copper region, and
which can connect, possibly, with the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway, and
result probably In Dallas being made
the terminus of the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas road, Is contamination
most devoutly to be wished. The cap
italists who have this enterprise In
hand have the money toput II. through.
The question has arisen about the
donation by the city of It's stock to the
new owners. Sound policy and lib
eral spirit would dictate that our city
should do so. 1t will derive in the end
more advantage by doing so than by
holding the stock. Without the help
ing hand extended to Dallas by the
capitalists who have purchased the
road, the stock was of little or no
value. All of its value is derived from
the negotiations just made. Therefore
the city is reaping an advantage by
holding she can hardly claim or avail
herselfof The capitalists have done
their part in rislIing so much in all I'M
tried enterprise. Now let Dallas show
its appreciation of the effort made to
give her additional railway commune
cations.

OoNsuMPT1yEs, TAKE NOTICE.
Every moment OF delay makes your
cure more hopeless, and much depends
on the judicious choice of remedy.
The amount OF testimony in favor of
DIR. Schenok's Pnlmonic Syrup, as q
cure for consumption, far exceeds all
that can be brought to support the
pretensions of any other medicine.
See Dr.. Sohenck's Almanac, contain
ing the certificates of many persons of
the highest responsibility, who have
been restored to health, after being
pronounced incurable by physicians OF
acknowledged ability. Schenck's s Pull
monic Syrup alone has cured many, as
these evidences will show; but the
cure is often promoted by the employ
ment of two other remedies which Dr..
Schenck provides for the purpose.
These additional remedies are
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic and Man
dIake Pills. By the timely use OF
these medicines. according to direc-
tione, DR.. Schenck certifies that most
any case OF consumption may be cured.
DR.. Schenok is professionally at his
principal Office. corner Sixth and Arch
streets, Philadelphia, every Monday,

GONG BACK ON HIMSELF.
John Russell has lately admitted that
he was wrong, while foreign secretary
under Lord ,Palmerston, in letting the
Alabama escape. Even In 1870, be in
sisted in the public edition of his
speeches, that the conduct of England
IN the Alabama case, was all that the
United States could have asked. Now,
however, in the "Eecollections and
Suggestions" Of his long and busy life,
(which has nowa reached, aighty-three
years. he takes the blame to, himself,
in three places in his book. Sir
Robert Collier, as counsel for the
United States. submitted to him an
argument for the detention of the Ala
bama; nevertheless, Earl Russell waited
several days for the opinion of the law
officers of the Grown, and in this in
ferval the Alabama escaped. s'It was
my,fault." he now says, ''as Secretary
OF State for Foreign Affairs" that the
Alabama was not detained on the pri-
ma jdcie case made out by Sir Robert
Collier. and pending the advice of the
Grown lawyers. The old earl, how
ever: is very wroth over the treaty OF
Washington and the loss Of San Juan
Island. In regard to the Trent affair,
when Palmerstou asked him what he
thought of it, Russell replied that "the
United States Government are very
dangerous people to run away FROM"
quoting the language of Grattan to-
ward another people. They awaited,
however, the opinion Of the law Of
fcers Of the Grown, and, as Russell
thinks, were ..'far from pressing hard"
on our Government. He considers
that reparation was .'honorably de-
manded and hohofabiy granted"

Andrew JohnnOn's Death,

DETAILS OF THE oocURRENcE--THE STROKE OF
PARALysIs FATAL-A QUIET RELEASE FROM
LIFE.
The death of ex-President johnson took place
at O'Clock Saturday morning, at the residence
of his daughter, Mrs. Brown, formerly Mrs.
Stover,) in Carter county, Tennessee. He left
Greenville on Wednesday, about o'clock and
was cautioned at the time Of his departure by
his son that he was in too delicate state Of
health to attempt tho journey but the ex- Pres
ident EXPIRE. sed his confidence in being able to
make the trip, al 1t WAS only forty-iye miles
from thai place to his DESTINATION.
Upon bis arrival at Mrs. Browns he complain
ed OF feeling much fatigued. and dropped from
his chair. He was was found to be unable to
rise, and remarked that he feared he WAS para
lyzed. He WAS at once assisted to his bed, but
objected to calling physician, saying that he
thought he should soon recover. No physician
was called until Thursday evening about five
o'clock He at once proceeded to apply active
remedies, but, as is evident, he was called too
late. This physician was DIR. Jobe. an old and
experienced practitioner OF Elizabethtou. Short
ly after his arrival the Senator was seized with
commissions, which resulted In paralytic stroke
Of the left side His son, Andrew Johnson, Jr,
and daughter, Mrs Patterson, were then sent
for and arrived at the ex Presidents bedside at
about or o'clock on Thursday night.
From 7 2. NJ. on Friday night until the hour
of his death he WIS unconscious, but during Fri
day he conversed freely on different subjects,
especially on State matters. His mind did not
wander much, but he seemed to suffer terribly
as he struggled with the disease that had stricken
him down. Before his visit to Greenvile the
e1-President told DR.. Maloney that he was worn
out and could not live more than year or two,
and he also expressed the same opinion to DR..
Taylor.
The funeral will take place at Greenville on
Tuesday, August 8, from che late residence Of
Mr.. Johnson. The Dickinson Guards and o.
Connor Zouavss on Knoxville will attend and act
az guard of honor. The MasoIs OF Greenv1le
will Escort the body from the depot when 1t ar
rives on the O'Clock train to Mr.. Johnson's late
residence. 1t is expected the Masons will take
charge of the remains, as Mr.. johnson was a
Mason of the thirty second degree. He had Sc
lected place Oh very prominent hill on his
premises at which to be buried, but it is posi-
tively known whore ho will be placed.
