liquid form with the ordinary Sprinkler or Fountain
Pump (which we furnish at Manufacturers Prices),

This new policy Of saddling the

The claims of eX-memhers of congress
amount to nothing. They have already

Sumo vi our prominent surgeons were
consulted, aud arrangements were M.
ally effected for the performance i the
operation.
At / O'Clock yesterday, Dr. Landlord,
In the presence Ol Drs. Tullolskc, Todd,
Professor liauduy, Dr. :. &. Fmler and
DR.. NidClct, commenced the operation,
Major G. G.. Rainwatcr, al1O II personal
friend of Major liarkley, was present.
The patient was Immediately placed
under the influence of chlOrOiOrn.
Then piece of flesh about two Inches
long, and one inch aud three quarters
wide was almost detached from the
cheek near the diseased portion, and
Immediately below the eye. The cut
Ii 'g extended as deep rs the muscles,
and was made SO that the size of the
skin thus removed would correspond
with that destroyed by disease. Before
this incisiOn was made, the lance was
also introduced around the edges of the
nose, SO that II fresh surface would he
there To meet the new flesh and acCel-
crate adhesion rs much rs possible.
The piece in the cheek was not en-
tirely cut out. a small neck, or CON
Meeting portion was left untouched, so
that when everything was ready the
incised piece was simply turned over
and Tapped on the nose. The skin
surrounding the wound made by this
incision was partly brought together
10y stitches Of silver wire. This was
done to aid the process of FORMULATION
or filling up.
Where the skin had been thus Tapped
and the stitches made, bandages of
lint were placed over the Nose, and
other aids introduced to hold the new
places together. An instrument was
also introduced into the nostril to pre-
serve the shape of the organ. The
operation lasted about two hours, dur
ing which several strong doses of chlor-
oform were administered to the pa
tient.
The physicians who were present
took occacion to congratulate Doctor
Landlord, on the remarkable skill
which he displayed in performing the
operation. Should it be successful,
and those who were present expressed
themselves that it will, it will certainly
rebound much to the reputation of
Doctor Landlord 1t will also prove II
source of unlimited pride to Major
Barkley, who has manifested such
great nerve in submitting to the opera
ton. He has the reputation of being
brave soldier, having fought four
years in the confederate army with
Major Rainwater, of this city. He
formerly resided nj Warsaw, Mo, from
which place he entered the confederate
army in 1861. AT the close of the war
he settled in Dallas county. He is now
iifty-one years old.

CARL SCIIURZ.

This distinguished statesman has
been invited to visit Dallas by large
number of our leading citizens 1t is
to be hoped that he will accept the in
vitation. A hearty welcome awaits
him. The record of Mr.. Schurz in
congress is one that is source of just
pride TO the Germans in America and
has received the appreciation of the
great mass of the American people.
His broad, liberal and enlightened
craftsmanship has left its impress up
on the legislation of the country and
commanded the respect of even his
enemies. He il not only n great polit-
ical leader, but a scholar and philos-
opher. His range of study and infor-
nation has been wide and deep
Amidst the harassing duties of his re-
sponsible position he has always found
time to cultivate the social graces and
refinements of home and the accom-
plishments Of art An eloquent and
forcible speaker, a polished and
courteous gentleman, skillfull
and sympathetic musician, a
fine linguist he combined
more culture with common sense than
any man In the senate. His not being
returned 10 the senate was n misfor-
tune to Missouri. The south lost in
him an impartial friend, who stood in
the breach between federal usurpation
and poor Louisiana when she was
crushed beneath the heel Of Kellogg
and Sheridan. Not only the large in
fiuential and intelligent German ele-
ment in Texas would be gratified 10y
his visit, and delighted to hear his
views upon any subject, but the entire
English speaking people would be
pleased 10 have him come among Us.
Carl Schurz is one Of the most remark

emit and exile, for never did-a man
have more to contend with than he
did from first to last. His indomiias

TIE CIvHI. RIGHTS BELE. DECIDED
UNC0NSTITUTiONA

The decision of Judge Emmons of
Memphis, declaring the civil rights
law unconstitutional, upon the ground
that these are matters which state
governments alone control, is both
wise and timely, and will meet with
general approval. The law had but to
be considered to be declared unconstl-
tutional. Judge Emmons' decision is
the opening wedge which is destined
to bring about similar decision OF the
supreme court of the United States I'M
less that body is so blinded by parti-
zanship as to be incapable of n right
eous Judgment. The passage OF tins
infamous law by corrupt and fanatl-
cal congress, at the instigation OF am
bilious and designing men, awakened
very naturally in the south feeling
of Indignation. Satisfied that the
thing would work out its own repeal
ultimately, THE HERALD counseled n
dii1nitied acquiesence on the part OF
the people, feeling assured that 1T was
best to avoid any action that would
give our enemies the opportunity they
courtci of making political capital out
of our restiveness or dissatisfaction.
The negroes, contrary to the eXpec-
tations of the radicals, have not eXhib-
tied any general disposition to be ugly
about claiming the honors thrust upon
them by the civlrghts bill. Here and
there few vicious negroes have
sought to force themselves upon So
cial equality with the whites, and have
come to grief. AS there is no money
in the privileges given, no "forty acres
and mule" in it, it will soon be given
up as an empty honor not worth run
ming the risk of being kicked out for
The bill has, so far, hurt more negroes
than whites. The preposterous elior'
of the general government to enforce
by law, relations defined by nature ano
regulated by custom and the states
could not fail to be in vain. The de
cision n Judge Bmmons is moral
social and political victory for tho
south, and the wisdom of our people
abstaining from factious or forcible op
position to the law is shown by it. Il
is one of those malignant pieces ofparty
legislation which, like the scorpion
stings itself and dies.

The New County OF SornerviiIe.


This county, named in honor of Gen
eral Alexander SOmerville, Il soldier of
the republic of Texas, created by the
fourteenth legislature, from part of
Hood and Bosque counties, contains
about four hundred square miles. The
Brazos river runs nearly through the
center. 1t is also watered by the Pa
luxy, Squaw, Pony, Georges, Spring
and Hill creeks. The lands are of the
very best quality, producing wheat,
cotton, corn, vegetables and fruit very
abundaltly. The country is well sup
piled with timber along the creeksa
rivers and on the uplands. 1t has at
Glenrose, the principal town, one of
the finest sulphur springs in the south.
Glenrose, which is situated in the
center of the county and has about two
hundred inhabitants, is one of the most
picturesque spots in Texas, the beauty
of the scenery, the health of the local
ity, and its many natural advantages,
making it very desirable as place OF
residence. 1t was founded by Major
II. &. Jordan, formerly president of the
City bank, of Dallas, II gentleman
whose public spirit and enterprise, and
genial social qualities, make him n
model pioneer. The place was laid out
some eight years ago, and Major Jor-
dan has erected one of the finest -four
ing mills in the state, the machinery
of which is driven by water power.
Building stone of n fine quail
ity is abundant The county contains
about five thousand inhabitants, and
the population is rapidly increasing.
The immigration is principally from
Virginia, Alabama, Tennessee, Ken
lucky, Indiana and Ohio. Glenrose is
about siXty-live miles from Dallas and
Waco. The Santa Fe and Mexican
Gulf railroad will pass through the
western part of the county and the Red
river and Rio Grande railway through
the center or eastern part of the county.
The Dallas and Southwestern railway
points directly to it. The last named
