On Sunday three desperadoes, m.a who
have been terror in the counties of Mason,
Llano, Burnet, Lampasas, etc., were
brought to Austin and lodged IN the new
jail. Their names are given in the heading
above. Cain was arrested last Thursday in
Palestine by Sheriff Strickland, of Burnet,
while he was on his way to Kentucky.
Sheriff Strickland passed through this city
the other day and was cautioned by Capt.
Sparks to be on the lookout for Cain, with
whom he was acquainted, and fortunately
he happened to meet him at the railroad
depot in Palestine and the arrest was made.
Cain is the man Capt. Sparks and his ram
gers were after when they arrested Stewart
and Billy Thompson near this city few
days ago. John Ringo is the party who was
taken from the Lampasss Jail last May by
about forty armed men. He had been con
victed OF threatening the life of Sheriff ].
j. Strickland, of Burnett, and was regarded
as one of the most desperate men in the
frontier counties. GLADDEN. has been in
dicted in Llano county for the murder of
Peter Bader, and five capiases, charging
HIM with theft, have also been issued
for bis arrest. These men were
arrested last Tuesday at Moseley's ranch,
in the western portion OF Liano county,
by Sergeant Robinson, commanding a dc.
tachment of seven men OF Company c.,
Texas rangers, assisted by Sheriff Bosarth,
of Llano, and six men. The rangers and
the sheriff and his party left camp Monday
night, rode to within short distance OF
Moseley's ranch and put up for the night.
In the morning they surrounded the house
and closed in on it, but did not find their
men. They then retired few hundred
yards and put out pickets. Later in the
morning Gladden. and Ringo arrived and
were arrested. One OF the men attempted
to escape arrest by flight. but chase was
given and he was soon captured, one of the
rangers firing one shot. All three of these
prisoners are to be held in the Austin Jail
until the courts convene in the respective
counties where they are to be tried for the
grimes committed.

Nelly's company are doing good work, and

less characters. Perhaps they have not
drought less than fifty dcsperadoes and
stock thieves to grief IN the last three
months, and perhaps they have frightened
as many more out of the country. The
people and the press sustain them, and cal
loudly on all officials to cooperate zealously
and fearlessly in waging war upon all dis
regsrders of law and disturbers of peace
and government. The cloud of terrorism
that has so long hung over this State is
breaking, and the bright sunlight of peace
and protection, law and order, seems neal
at hand.
