TnE failure Of Tennessee to meet
the July interest on her bonds is
receiving, as it Deserves, tho seorn-
ful criticisms OF tho press through
out the country, North and South
When II State, through its Legisa,
ture, solomnly pledges its faith and
honor to do n certain thing, and, by
virtue Of the trust rcposcd in those
promises, obtains money, and then
deliberately violates these pledges,
in the eyes Of all honorable men,
she has done u dishonorable act and
has obtained money under false pre-,
lenses. An act like this il not only
dishonoring to tho government of
the State, but to u certain extent
tho stain attaches to every citizen
within her borders. Let the people
of Texas SEQ to it that no such dis
honor is ever brought upon her fair
name.

"A correspondent of the Galveston
News, writing from Brazoria, August
LIST, says:
A very sad accident occurred here
last Friday, an account of which testi-
lies to the impolicy of convict labor.
n young man riding across public
bridge, being mistaken for n convict,
was shot and instantly killed. The
convict made his escape about two
weeks ago, and the guards have been
on the alert ever since, in the hope of
arresling him. One of the guards IL
still AT large, and the other is in Jail,
aud will have an examination to-day
before Justice Copes The arrested
says that he is perfectly justiHable, as
he had orders from his sergeant to kill
any one who didn't halt. ! ask, from
whence this petty sergeant de-
rives this extraordinary power? Where
is the security for life, II u petty sar-
geant Of convict guards, bearing his
commission from Ward, Dewy u Co.,
can send his armed bands through our
county with orders to shoot down our
citizens who do not choose to halt at
their bidding? This is not the only
occurrence of the kind that has hap
pened since the introduction of con-
victs into our county. This is n seri-
Gus matter, and ii is to be hoped that
our next Legislature will take active
steps regarding it. 1t is to be hoped
that they will adopt some measure
which will do way with the necessity
of n standing army of convict guards
in our midst. X.

WE had pleasant call this week from Inspector General Hardie and Dr. Gard. ner. Gen. Harde seems to be prompt, frank, open hearted man, and has Il desire to advance the best interest of the Terri tory as well as that of the government. He is firmly of the opinion that supplies for the army should be purchased in Ari- zona when it can be done as cheap and of as good quality, and in this proposition he Is just and right. There is no reason that pork and bacon should be brought from better quality, and at the same price. It does not give our preaacers a fair chance, and our big brothekA <1ornia ought to be ashamed to try di33 ke this little re source from us.
