A Mexican Tyrant COwhlded.

A Brownsville special, January II, to the
Galveston NetUs says:
just after the war Senior Davila was sec
retary to the Governor of the State Of
Nueva Leon. During the Christmas hOli-
days he caused Sam KothenE, FOrbieh
Potter and Ernst Seichardt to be arrested
and imprisoned for singing in the streets Of
Monterey. Under directions, the iailOr or
dered them to carry out large tub con-
tanning the accumulated filth of the prison.
They declined, and were beaten unmerci-
fully. Their clothes were cut to pieces
aud their flesh lacerated. Even Mexican
editors denounced the act ct brutal. All
these atrocities were indorsed by Mr..
Davila. The outraged Americans have all
died. Senior Davila was made Governor of
Nueva Leon by Senior Lerdo few months
ago He left Mexico for political reasOns
This morning he landed on this bank from
Matamoros, and was acc0sted by Mr.. Jesse
Dennett, reminded of what he had done to
the Americans, and severely cowhided.
Some Americans here are determined not to
submit any longer to III treatment from
Mexican authorities.

THE LEGISLATURES YESTERDAY.
The Senate.


No quorum. No business except in joint
session, ballOting for short term Senator.
House Of Representatives.
A quorum appeared at roll call and the
Senate appearing, the call of the joint roll
showed fourteen Senators and sixty eight
Representatives present in the joint assem-
bly,.
Mr.. Burton. in a personal explanation,
stated he was astonished at the charge
made by Mr.. Pinchback. If there had been
such liberality as the dispensing of $3.50 to
every member for vOting for Senator Kel.
logg, his name had been left out, for he had
never heard anything of it. He was glad
the occurrences of Saturday had come in
time. He felt now that if they had sue
ceded in electing Mr.. Pinchback to the
United States Senate the Republican party
would have sunk into oblivion. Now he
wouldn't have voted for him for place in
a corporal's guard.
The ballot was then taken and resulted
as fOlloWs:
