Two MExIcASs SHoT.-Quite a serious
affair occurred over the river Saturday af-
ternoon between two Mexicans and a
colored man living on Major Walsh's
farm. The Mexicans, who are said to have
been under the influence of liquor, went to
the colored mans cabin and tined to force
an entrance. He demonstrated with them,
and they then attacked him with quirts,
when he retreated. The Mexicans pursued
and finally drew knives, when the black
man seized gun and shot them both. One
is said to have been MORALLY and the other
severely wounded. The negro gave him
self uD soon after the occurrence.

ASSESSMENT BoARDs.-In many States IN
the Union, in order to prevent fraud and
favoritism in tax assessments, they have
what they call assessment boards, who pre-
pare for the assessors an assessment sched-
ule, specifying what lands, horses, cattle,
hogs, wagons, buggies, etc, shall be rated
at OF course there are different grades of
land, ETC., but it seems to US that the plan
is a good and just one. In Texas, and per
haps in Austin, many owners of property
give in their assessments at less than half
what they would be willing to take for the
same, while more honest people give in
their assessment according to the spirit of
truth and honesty, and thereby they are
made to hear an unequal burden in the
support of the State and city government.
1t seems to us that an assessing board
might be created for Austin at least to
prepare an assessment schedule, which, no
doubt, would rebound somewhat to the
city's interest, and to the interest of the
more honest portion of cur population.

THE SALE OF LoTs.-For the last few
weeks lots have been sold so rapidly in
every direction, in this city, that we have
been unable to keep up with and make men
ton of the same. Perhaps, if we had been
willing to run ourself down in calling on
all the real estate agents in the city, we
might have been able to have given ma
jority of the sales. Messrs. DeCordova,
Withers 6 Co. have recently sold lots ., 6,
Z and 8, in block 10, Raymond Plateau, to
Senator Savers, of Bastrop, who contem-
plates, we are pleased to learn, moving to
this city soon. The lots cost $500, and
are very desirable, and no doubt Sena-
tor Sayers comtemplates the erection of a
fine residence on them. The same firm
have sold Messrs. Phillipson & Levy lot

THE GALVESTON RACEs.-Mr. Gay writes
that about sixteen horses will arrive in
Galveston from New Orleans, inclusive OF
Harvey Felter, Bonaventure, Galway, Fall
mouth, Sweet Boy and others. These are
all first class horses, and certainly it will
be no disgrace for our Austin horses to be
beaten by such stock. Mr.. Gay does not
know whether any of the horses from New
Orleans will be sent to Austin or not.

Nor REsPECTABLE.-The "organ" says
respectable people in Austin will not allow
the STATESMAN to enter their doors. Any
one worthy the name of a journalist would
not seek TO Willy the readers of a city
paper. The STATEcMAN is read by five to
ten times the number of citizens in Austin
that the "organ" is, and if We have one
patron not more worthy of respect and
public confidence than the ''organ"
grinder, we will let him name the man, at
the peril of getting booted off the sidewalk.

A HURRICANE.-We learn from Mr.. Pick
ell, carpenter, that hurricane passed
over the old Pickett stage stand, about
twelve miles from Austin on the Bastrop
road, demolishing a new house that Mr..
Pickell was building, and scattering the
loose lumber about promiscuously. Mr..
Pickell says he was blown off his feet, that
wagons were upset, and things scattered
about generally. The hurricane seemed to
be about two hundred yards wide, and it
left its mark as it passed along by leveling
fences, uprooting trees, etc

A DUTY.-As Austin is increasing rap
idly in population, and as the man vino has
prated in the Gazette about "foul conspir-
acy" is not much known to new corners, it
will be necessary every few months for us
to give HIM blast, as in Sundays issue, to
keep him from absolutely getting away with
innocent and unsuspecting people. He is a
success as an ''organist," and bears high
character among our citizens for being an
excellent judge of house-maids. His other
and many, many accomplishments we will
speak of when occasion requires.

srn soldiers he said, in conclusion: CAS-
an American am proud of the men who
charged so bravely with Pickett's division
on our lines at Gettysburg, as am one
OF the men who bfavely met and repulsed
them. There are men who cannot always
choose the right cause, but when having
once chosen, they are ready to die for it. II
they justify not their cause they are at least
ennObled to themselves, and men who, for
conscience sake, fought against their gov
eminent at Gettysburg ought easily TO be
forgiven by the sons of men who, for con-
science sake, fought against their govern
ment at Lexington and Bunker Hill. Oh,
sir, as Massachusetts was the first in war,
so let her be the first in peace, and she
shall forever be first in the hearts of her
countrymen.%
