Anew York correspondent of the Roch-
ester Democrat and Chronicle puts Com
modore Vanderbilt s wealth at $45 0Oo,-
900. He is below the mark. Even
10 these days of deprecated values the
old man holds securities worth millions
more than that. Uncle Daniel Drew,
who knows whereof he speaks, puts the
property of the Commodore at one hun
bred millions; but perhaps he gets it
too high. Still. every one will allow
that Vanderbilt is by far the richest man
in America, at least in Immediately
realizable property New York San.

Mr.. Bowen has at last been expelled
from Plymouth church. Nothing is
now left except to tell the whole
truth. If he cannot or will not tell
the bottom facts of this intricate case,
not into the ear Of a chosen referee,
but into the general ear Of the public,
his position will be an unenviable
one. With the disgrace of expulsion
resting on him silence should be an
i'm possibility. No matter who be-
comes involved, the truth, plain and
unvarnished, with names and dates
attached, should be told. Otherwise
the checkmate of excommunication
remains in force. 1t will hardly do to
keep still in order to save the reputa-
ton of any one, when by keeping still
he loses his own reputation, What a
pity it is, since there is the most
egregious lying somewhere, that the
public indignation, instead of being
scattered over half a dozen suspected
lives, cannot he concentrated on the
one on which it ought to fall

Indian War Emmk mel {.

Mr.. Dodge. . well known and reliable
gentleman, who arrived yesterday from
Warner Valley, Oregon, via Camp Bid
we'll and Surprise Valley, informs us tina
two Indians were killed on the 29th ult
1t Painter Flat, few miles from Buffalo
Meadows. . station on the road from
Reno TO Camp Bidwell, and 100 miIsl
distant from Reno. The circumstance
attending the killing were - follows
One Of the Indians killed had worked
for Mr.. Shinn during harvest last year,
and had herdsd sheep through the win
ter, also for Mr.. Shinn. He claimed
that he had not been paid for his serv-
ices, and drove Shinn's horses into his
(Shinn's) corral and caught one, an
nouncing his intention Of taking the ami
NAL in pay for his work. whereupon
Shinn's son shot and killed him. and
then shot and wounded another Indian
who was helping to catch the horse. The
wounded Indian is not expected to re-
cover. The Indians in the vicinity gath
cred together next day and talked
freely OF revenge in u very determined
spirit Mr. Hamlin, who resides at
Buffalo Meadows, sent courier to
Camp Bidwell informing Captain Nc
Grsgor, commanding officer at that post,
Of the case. aud asking him to send
OF troops TO the scene Of
action to protect the citizens of the vicin-
ty in their lives and property, and to
Jake such other action In the way OF
pacifcations Of the Indians as may seem
light and proper in the premises. A
number OF Indians from Pyramid Lake
'enaired to the spot on the 2Sth, and IN
ess no steps are taken to inquire idto
he lusitsr and find out who was to
blame, to the end that if Shinn be ad-
judged guilty that he be arrested and
ried for his crime, it is feared that the
indians will wreak summary vengeance
N the settlers in the neighborhood or
N unfortunate travellers who may fall in
heir power. Unless some steps are
AIKEN to pacify the Indians We are pre-
jared to hear of another Indian outbreak
nth all the attending horrors and atroci-
les. We hope that tho guilty party in
his case will be dealt with according to
aw. Aside from the question Of justice
o the Indians no white man has a right |
y his unlawful acts to jeopardize the |
ives of defenseless settlers on the from
ler. The history of the frontier is full |
f incidents where innocent women and |
hildrsn have been butchered by the |
indians, because white men, fully as |
avaGe, would indulge in wsnton acts Of |
ruslty and murder - Reno Journal Of |

% The Roman word ''eques" means knight
Ia gallant gentleman and soldier, and the
word is derived from equus, horse. When
we say, therefore, that fellow is horse,
we must refer to his nobility of nature, since,
when we say he is an ass, we refer to his
stupidity and ignoble fame. The Germans,
like the Romans, termed their aristocracy
''tiderG,p and the word ''chivalry" is derived
from the French word cheUal-horse. No
wonder then that Murchison and other de-
vout fanciers of horse flesh think Buceph-
alhs worthier of honors than an Alexander,
and more people do honest, heartfelt, rever-
ence to the honest animal than to selfish, am
bilious map who bestrides the steed. 1t has
therefore occurred to US that they who
would honor the dead by erecting an eques-
trian statue would do well to mount the
hero on an ass.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

1t appears that the New York Tri6uns
published the substance of the Belknap
scandal in February, 1872, but there was
no Democratic House to investigate then.
Some of the New York bankers who have
been sweating under rents from SO, 900 to
SIS, 900 per annum, and whose leases ex-
pire this spring, demand a reduction of
twenty to thirty per cent, and the demand
will no DOUBT be complied with.
The Louisiana Legislature costs the tax
payers between $4,000 and $4,000 day.
And the New Orleans Picayune thinks that
it will "hardly be denied that if for the last
ten years the State had had no Legislature
at all its condition would be all the better ~
a Washington letter says: "Gen. Belknar
will plead guilty in the Senate, and thus a
long trial there will be aVerted. A question
of jurisdiction may arise and be argued,
but it is the general opinion here that the
Senate will promptly hold that it has juris-
diction."
Ex-Governor Dix, in a published letter,
urges the New York Republicans to send
their very best rnen to Cincinnati, and to
send them ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS any en-.
tanglements whatever" Any other course,
he thinks, will be Extremely iil-judged
and perilous." The venerable Dix is not q
Conkling man; quite the reverse.
The Democrats of Bangor, Maine, asked
Congressman Ben FL. Hill, of Georgia, &c
come and help them celebrate Washington;
birthday. He did not GO, but wrote them
that the Southern people with unprece-
dented unanimity are ready and willing &c
meet the Northern people in a spirit oil
anity, Difference and concession.
Rapid transit in New York is at last de-
cided upon, the commissioners having, on
Wednesday, submitted their final report in
favor of the elevated system to the Supreme
Court, general term. Thersute lies through
Pearl street, the new BOwery and Third
Avenue to the Harlem River. The work
will be commenced at an early day.

The Democratic majority in the Rockport
representative district will reach near 5000.
Orange is unquestionably the banner
county of the State. Not vote was cast

are for Coke for the seuare, and the Mexia

We concur with the Guadalupe Times

A Rio Grande City letter-writer tells that
Col. Ford is here looking well, and does
not seem too proud to speak with those
who voted for or against him. He is still
known and respected as ''Old Rip"
Gen. ID. Y. Ports is strongly advocating
the election of Judge Devine to the United
States Senate. He lives in San Antonio,
and yet there are papers that persist in as
serting that Devine is not candidate. We
know that he would accept the office.
The Waxahachie Enterprise opposes w.
W. Lang for Speaker of the House. The
Enterprise says: ''Our opinion is that the
Captain has not sufficient experience to
make good presiding officer, and that he
would be of more service to the State in
some other CAPACITY"
The Etdminer says generously and truth
fully ''that we are not among those who
| would look upon the succession of the Hon.
Richard b. Hubbard TO the .unexpired Term
of the Governor with uneasiiess. Confid-
ing in his patriotic devotion to the State,
and his we'll known ability, we eau see that
the great reforms inaugsrated in our State
government by Governor Coke and the
party under his leadership would be safe
and would suffer no chill or hindrance."
An exchange says that ''if Judge Han
cock would tell the truth, he would say
that he was not only Union man during
the war, but would be Republican now II
| 1t were possible for him 10 Obtain Office in
Texas as a Republican, and Walker could
say the same of himself and his State. And
Hancock might probably add, with equal
truth, that he never would have been a
Union man had not the lead OF the seces-
sion movement been given to his hated
rival, Oldham, instead of himself. Repub-
licans may learn a Useful lesson from the
incident of Walker being selected from the
Virginia statesmen TO go 70 New Hamp-
shire; il is that the Democrats denounce
carpet-baggers only to bring them over to
their side and assistance"

THE inventor of iron hoops for cotton
bales was named David McCombs. He was
also the inventor of cotton compress now
in common use everywhere ia the Gulf
States. He invented the iron hoop twenty
six years ago, and, very poor at the time,
sold interests IN the patent TO others. They
finally succeeded in squeezing him out, and
his widow and half dozen children now
live by the labor of their own hands, while
jay Cookies ring, or Cookies successors own
ing the patent, have had it extended once
or twice, buying .venal Congressman, and
the patent, sWindle in the hands of its
owners, is used to levy blackmail by the
million dollars per annum upon the industry
of Southern people. This money goes
North, "where it can do most good" and
therefore these extensions of patents are
not for the benefit of toiling genius and
poverty, but for the use of thieves who per
sistently plumber society and government
But this iron-tie ring robs only cotton

. .H...
The circumlocutory phrase people of
COLOR" or, gentleman of color" should
go into desuetude. H'Negro," the synonym
of "blsck," has reference to the absence of
color, and we can say of an Indian or
Chlpamapl that he is a man of color, but
not truthfully of the African. Surely senti-
mentalism coined and gave currency to the
lackadaisical ''ladies and gents of color" and
sensible negroes prefer the plain, honest
use of the honest Latin derivative ''negro."
Unless the man disgrace the color, and we
would therefore change the names OF
things, let us speak of whites and negroes,

our National Legislature. The West has
never had Senator, and is entitled to the
consideration asked. We claim it not mere
ly as a privilege, but as question of right.
Morgan Hamilton lives at Austin, Judge
Hancock lives there, and all the rest live
east of the Colorado. You have your rail-
roads. and your Senator and Representative
in the United States Congress; we have
nothing, and, not satisfied with these, you
boldly ask all the time for more
There is one thing TO which we call your
attention especially, believing, as we do,
that your object Is to represent things truly
and rs they exist: We have seen IN strIy
copy of the Gd-ctte an effort to preludice
the Grange clement rs well as those VINO
were in favor of the adoption of the new
Constitution, against the interest OF Judge
Ireland for the senatorship. The Gazette
saws that it would favor no man (substan-
tinlly those woris) who did not vote for,
and give his influence TO, the support OF
that instrument. Now, the question arises,
is Judge Hancock in any better condition
before the people than Judge Ireland on that
subject, and how does the Ga-etts know,
seeming to speak authoritatively on every
subiect, how Hancock or Ireland felt about
the adoption of the Constitution Can the
Gazette or any other paper or man say
that Judge Ireland or Judge Hancock
has expressed himself on the new
Constitution And, still further, il
that is 10 be made test of qualification,
was it not the duty of Judge Hancock to
openly declare his opinion on that ques-
ton, the position he occupied being one
of political nature; and was 1t not pru-
dent and Just for Judge Ireland, occupy
ing position on the Supreme bench, to
M N ~
which he might be called upon TO oonstrue
at any time.
The positions of the two gentlemen be-
ing widely different - one political, the
other. judicial-it occurs to us that the po'
litical incumbent should express himself on
all questions of general public interest in
which the rights of his people are affected
while the other should ever aud at all times
remain silent until judicially called upon for
an expression OF opinion. The public, We
believe, have not been appraised of what
| Ireland or Hancock either think of the Con-
stitution, only through the insight of the
State Gazette
We refer to this matter because we think
the intimation is calculated TO prejudice
the claims of our friend, and because he
fills the position he does, we do not think
he would be guilty of the gross indiscre-
ton OF hawking his opinion about for pub
! lie criticism and newspaper assaults.
| The friends of Judge Ireland have the
assurance, that had he not been the occu-
pant of a judicial position, his opinion
would have been publicly known, and re-
garded as sound. A citizenship OF Western
Texas for the past twenty-five years, and an
extended intercourse with its people within
the last few months, give us the assurance
that these are the expressions of popular
sentiment on the subject referred.

THE Journal of Civilization (Harper's
Weekly) is at hand. Owing to an indispo-
sition on the part of the caricaturist, Mr.
Mast, the Belknap trouble was crowded
outT oThose who know Mr. Nast's ability
and promptness to lay before the public
the evils and shortcomings of corrupt
men will regret his inability to appear
at this particular time. However, his hand
did not altogether lose its cunning, as a
fine historical picture is presented which
relates to JEFF. Davis and the Andersonville
horror. There is nothing connected with
the picture which says so, but we take it
that the head stones which appear at the
graves are the same as those contracted for
by Mr.. Belknsp.
