from six to ten feet. The danger line
at Memphis Is twenty-eight feet, and
on the iiist instant the water was az
high as thirty-four feet, and since that

1.-THE HERALD enters into tedi-
GUS and elaborate calculations to show
the grand aggregate of what this COM
promise bill will cost the State ut the
end of twenty-five years, through Its
land grants and the exemption Of its
property from taxation. 1t does not
have the fairness to state, however,
that not q dollar of this sum IL taken,
by taxation, from the toilIng industry
of the State. Will THE HERALD be
good enough to furnish Its readers a
correct calculation Of what the subsidy
In bonds to this road the Interna-
tional] would have cost the people Of
the State at the end of twenty-five
years p Palestine New Era.
The Era ought to know, If 1t does
not, that TO exempt certain property
from taxation, is simply to lay the tax
that that property ought, legitimately,
to contribute, upon other tax payers OF
the State. In other words, to exempt
certain property Is to lay an indirect
additional tax upon the remainder,
and no sophistry will avail the Era
In attempting TO subvert this PROPOSE
ton which the yeriest tyro In political
economy knows to be true. TIE HER
AID will furnish you with the most
authentic and reliable informa-
ton on this subject, being
nothing less than the Hon. =. III. OAR
denis estimate of taxation necessary to
pay these bonds and interest furnished
TO the State Gazette in 1876. Mr.. Oar
den estimated that less than one ninth
of one per cent. would be required,
and that as the resources Of the State
continued to develop and the value Of
property increased, just in that ratio
would this tax Of less than one-ninth
per cent. be decreased.
The gross mot the nett earnings o.
the road were to be taxed two per cent
for twenty-five years to liquidate these
bonds, and II we take this into consid'
Grafton, we will find that the tax
would not have been q feathers weight
upon the people, while the benefits 10
the state from completing the road Va
the Rio Grande would have been In
cslculsble.

THE sENATO,tsIrIp.

We believe that did Governor Coke
appreciate the present condition OF af-
fairs ut the North, the immense sacri-
lices necessary TO be made; did he APP
preciate fully the latent suspicious of
the Northern Democracy that wa have
accepted the situation with mental
reservations; did he appreciate the
great interest evinced throughout the
entire North respecting the Texas
Senatorship, and ably reflected In the
New York Tribune, New York Sun,
Baltimore Gasette and Philadelphia
Times; did he feel ~ the Texas Repre-
sentatlvos In Congress feel, as Lamar
aud Gordon, and Thurman aud Clymer
and Kerr aud Beck feel, we believe
that he would Withdraw from the race
and throw his influence, conceded 10
DO very great In Texas, In favor OF that
man whom Texas aud the whole c0nn-
try 30 much needs In the United States
Senate. COke's election 10 the Senate
will detract from his influence and
popularity. He will lose the place that
he has 80 largely and deservedly oc'
cupied In the hearts OF the people. He
will arouse suspicion that he IL sacri
hcing the interests Of u coniiding and
generous people TO personal ambition.
II he persists In running and IL unfor-
tunately defeated In the contest land
such an event, from combinations that
we are advised Of, may not be- improb-
able), his influence viii be- fearfully
weakened In Texas.
II no forces himself in by the use Of
his influence AZ Governor, aud we fear
that, that official influence IL being ex-
erted, II he descends from the dignity
Of his position TO use the arts and
trlckery OF cross-road politicians, the
news OF his triumph will fall but too
coldly upon the hearts of true Texans.
Respected, honored, trusted and loved
and the Governor OF the greatest
Southern State elevated by an unpre-
cideuted majority to that position for
u second time with the impression In
the minds of the people, that he in
tended to serve them M Governor, we
cannot conceive what prouder position
al honored son OF the South would
wish to occupy.
Next TO Lamar, no man from the
South exceeds Hancock in the In
nuence at Washington city, than Han
cock no man would DO more acceptable
to the Northern Democracy, no man
can or will do more good for Texas.
Texas has confessedly the finest Demo-
cratic delegation in Congress from the
Southern States. Throckmorton,
Reagan, Culbertson, Hancock, Mills,
Schleicher and Maxey are all able men,
and are admitted to be IN exceedingly
strong delegation. Place Hancock In
the Senate with MaXey, elect some
able man from his District to replace
him in the House and we will have a
representation that Texans may well
admire. Add to this, State Gov ern'
ment differed by wise, trusted and In
telligent men, men in whom the peo'
pie have the most implicit and I'M
bounded confidence, and no citizen
can look upon Texas without feelings
of pride and exultation.

How different Is the condition of the
State to-day. Our credit stands unim-
peached In all the money markets and
centers of credit of the world. The
people at home are willing, nay glad
to take the States obligations for any
thing, aud for any amount. What
Texan, what patriot does not feel his
bosom swell with pride, when making
this contrast P Waco Examiner.
Yes, his bosom ought to swell i'm.
mensely when he Is informed that
Texas realized for her bonds now sell
sing at 81 10, In Wall street, the sum
OF eighty-three cents on the dollar.
The breasts of the men who bought
these bonds ut such sacrifice and
have pushed them up to the present
figure do heave and swell, doubtless,
with gentle and placid satisfaction,
but we can't see where the satisfaction
to Texas tax payers comes In.

--Abner Womaok, Deputy Sheriff
OF Montgomery county, while on a tax
collecting tour unexpectedly came.up
with q notorious horse thief named
Barrow, about fifteen miles from
Montgomery. Warrants for Barrow's
arrest had been received from m ad-
joining county, and Womack had
them with him. He therefore under
took the capture, but as soon M Bar
row understood his object, he drew his
pistol aud shot Womack through the
head, killing him instantly. The des-
perado then mounted the dead mans
horse aud coolly rode away, leading
his own, or rather the horse he had
been riding.
