rEss. Late las. night we heard 1t rumored
that the Baton brotbers-James, Thomas,
aud Albert had confessed the murder OF
their father on the Gum Swamproad, in Pr!n-
cess Anne county. The following are the par
ticulars. as tar as we could learn:
1t seems that after Mr.. Baton and the
younger son. Watkins, lett home for the city.
tue two brothers started and overlook them
at the spot the horse was found tied to the
fence, and upon getting along side, without
saying word, they fred on their father;
then distnountiug they finished him with
blows administered with some heavy in.
strument. 10 the mean time the younger
brother, recognizing the assassins, leaped from
the wagon and endeavored to escape, but was
halted by the murderers under the threat Of
instant death, and with a pistol to his bead
was forced to take an OATH, promising that
upon being questioned be would swear that
the attack was made by party of negroes
who sprung from the woods by which the
spot was surrounded. They then made him
start for the neigbbors' houses for assistance,
while they made the best use Of their time to
escape. The elder boys exonoratc their
younger brother, and also state that their
mother knew nothing about the horrible

Texas and Mexico.

WASHINGTON, June2i.-Gentlemen IN offlcial
positions are apprehensive that unless prompt
measures be taken With regard to the con.
tinued raids on the Texas border the United
States and Mexico may become involved 10
serious difficulties. There is no doubt that
the Mexican Government is anxious for the
removal Of all causes that could possibly pro-
duce conflict Of arms between the two
countries, but the border being far from the
capital. it cannot exercise its desired control
over the northern States of that republic.
Two years ago the Mexican Government
protested against the invasion Of it's soil by
General Mckenzie in pursuit OF MeX'cin
raiders, but our Government could nuke no
amends, and did not censure that othcer,
deemiug that the pursuit was justified by
the circumstances.
The army will now act promptly IN pro-
tecting American citizens, assisted by such
naval appliances US necessity may demand.
The command on The border is entrusted to
General Ord, in whom the Government has
entire confidence, both as to his discretion
and efficiency.

Especial telegram to the Dispatch
NORFOLK, June 21.-That desperate gang
OF PARTICLES the Baton brothers arrived
at the city Jail last night about O'Clock.
guarded by posse of ten meD, tied and
shackled in such manner as to make it i'm
possible to get away, such precaution be-
ing necessary owing to an assault upon the

hotel, and party went to the jailor's assist
ance. The three brothers will be taken to
Richmond for eighteen years each on Wed.
nesday morning.
The Norfolk Blues passed in the Capes at
noon, and arrived here about 8 O'Clock to-
day. The reception was truly imposing. A
steamer from theDavy.yard with the marine
band and battalion OF marines, detach
ment of sailors and two howi.zers, went
down to Hampton Roads and escorted the
Boston visitors up. The ship-of-the.lne New
Hampshire fired salute when the Blues
came up the harbor, and the vessels of all
descriptions courteously dipped their colors
on landing. The escort consisted of the
United States marines and band, the Blues
who remained at home, and other military
companies of the city, the Fire Department,
Mexican veterans, and citizens. The pro.
cession marched through the city to the
Academy lot, where the Blues were formally
received by the Mayor and Council, and were
addressed by Hon. John Goode, Jr.

The earthquake shocks last week in Ohio,
Indiana, and Illinois. coming SO soon after
the great upheaval in South America, recall
the fact that in 1911 the earthquakes which
were so devastating along the line of the
Andes were also felt in the Mississippi Val
lev. The Cincinnati Gazette says that at the
time of the destruction Of Caracas, in that
year buildings were violently shaken in Gin
cinnati, and at New Madrid, Mo-. two or
three small .kes were formed, and the course
of the Mississippi river diverted. 1t may be
that the tremblings felt last week in the Yves.

Considering the very tender age of some OF

formed their parts in the dialogues remark
ably well; and, should they In after life sue
