The officers Of the Rio Bravo have dis

shrub, which grows to II height Of be-

cactus plant also grows there to about
the same height, and is an equally
troublesome impairment to man Or
horse, In order to reach the river,
roads have been cut through this shrub

What i, generally known rs the Texas
border, extends from the city of Browns
vile to the HccOs mountains, a distance
of over five hundred miles by land, and
in Il direct course. II, however, the dis
lance be measured along the %tortuOus
and winding Rio Grandc, it would reach
fully three times that number of miles,
owing to the extreme irrcgularity of its
curse throughout the entire distance.
ylc river ON both sides is lined by bluffs
ranging in height from twenty to thirty
five feet, and in order to facilitate the
crossing of cattle deep gullics have been
cut in these bluffs by the Mexican raid
crs, though when driving the cattle from
Texas it makes but little difference how
high these bluffs are or whether there he
any pathways cut through or not the
great thirst OF the cattle, they being
kept from water Tor u long while, urges
them to plunge into the shallow stream
below, through which they can easily
wade to the opposite shore. Along the
entire border there is a road running ON
the Texas side, into which the pathways
| and roads from the interior all merge at
last and, if this were perfectly pasolled,
the dangers which constantly threaten
the inhabitants of the interior would be
greatly lcsscncd. As it is now, it is I'M
safe for any person 10 travel unaccom-
panied by a strong escort any traveller
met by the raiders is liable to I've most
brutally murdered, and instances are
known where the innocent have been
quartcrcd and mutilated in the most
horrible manner, without any reason ex-
ccpt the fear that they might make
known the whereabouts of the raiders.
About onc.quarter of the distance he
tween Brownsville and the Pecos moun
tains is situated Ringgold barracks,
where the United States soldiers are at
present stationed under command of
Gen. Potter, who has immediate charge
of the border but these troops are 80
few in number that they afford little if
any protection against the t%reacherous
and daring Mexicans. There are about
five or six hundred men, equally divided
between Brownsville and Ringgold bar
racks. The entire district OF Texas il i'm

quarters are san Antonio, fully one
hundred and fifty miles from the Rio

= general impression that our traffic in
the great staple IL being gradually mod
flied, A dawning prosperity IN the agrl,,
cultural districts, together with increased
accumulations by the cotton consumer,
both tend to effect II change. While the
abolition Of African slavery in no way
diminished the monopoly Of production,
it seriously affected the status of the
planter. A timc-honored custom OF pro-
curing funds in unlimited amount from
the factor, shipping an entire crop, and
ordering layishIy whatever luxury iis-
tidious taste suggested, was necessarily,
abandoned. With the increased cost OF
cultivation, no crop with such n dram
could prove rcmuncrative, and only by
the ihoSt rigid economy has the agricul-
turist managed To subsist. A sharp cut
ting down Of expenditure has naturally
proved remuncrative, The planter -

MORTGAGES NOT TAXABLE.-Thc su-
prcmc court of California has recently
made Il decision of the utmost import
anCc, if it is to be taken rs Il precedent
in other states. 1t has decided by an
almost unanimous bench, only one out
of five dissenting, and he giving as yet
no reasons for his dissent, that the taxa
ton OF mortgages and other evidences Of
debt rs property is illegal and unconSti-
tutional. This decision is in the broad
est and c~learcst terms. II meets the
whole subject, rejecting all mere techni-
~calities and side issues. The particular
case, that of the people vs.. the Hibernia
savings and loan society, is not once re-
ferred to in the course of the three elab.
crate opinions by which the decision of
the court is supported. The court means
to assert %squarely and positively hat the
taxation of mortgages is illegal, because,
TO use the language of Chief Justice
Wallace, Mere credits are a false guam
tity in a%sccrtaining the wealth which is
subject to taxation As property, and in
so tar as that sum is attempted to he in
creased by the addition of these credits,
property taxation, based thereon, is not
only merely fanciful, but necessarily the
unconstitutional imposition of an addi-
tional tax upon a portion OF the property
already once taxed."-N y. Tribune.
