TnE troubles on the Mexico border
10 net seem to subside. Ca pit. McNal
", commanding our troops on the Rio
Grandc, says that there is but one
way tn stop the raidipg thieves. that is
to pursue the rascals across into Next
can territory and capture them. To
this the Mexican authorities object.
Well. what il they do! They will not
put a stop to it themselves, and it is
our duty to protect our citizens from
loss. Ifano.hcr neat little whipping
is all that they want to set things to
rights, it would not take u long to
give it to them. Capt. McNally's
plan ought to be adopted at once.

SENATOR Thomas {. McCrcery, Of
Kentucky, introduced into the Senate
at Washington, bill to appropriate
q 900 ior the purpose Of defraying
the expenses If blingii g the remains
Of the Hon. L. Rumsey Wing. late
u. y. Minister to Ecquador. from Quito
ao bic home in Kentucky. Mr. Wing
ems one Of the rising young men of
this State, and had he lived and en-
joye,i good heath, would have made
his mark high upon the roll Ut fame.
Although he was Republican in pol.
itics, no was not a radical partisan,
and Senator McC'eery, knew that his
remains were worthy o. all homer.
The appropriation will Of course be
snadc. He died at Quito, about a
year and half ago, aged about %
Years, and his body would have been
brought back ere this, but for the fact,
that BY the foolish laws of that coun.
try, stranger who may be buried
there, cannot be removed out Of the
country until after two years shall
have elapsed.

Brr for the overflow of the Nile an

BIT for the overflow Of the Nile and
other streams in the world, the people
who live in those lands would not be
able to ,ai>e sufficient supplies to sup
port life. The overflow of some Of
our own rivers greatly tends to enrich
the adjacent oil, and but for this fact
the adjoining country would become
poor and unproductive. Blessings Of
ten come in disguise from Him who
rulsth and guideth all things in His
own way. and at all times with wis.
dom. although man may not be able
omprehend the same.
