The New Texas Colony.

Mr.. Severps and lis associates secu red rooms
yesterday for the headquarters of the new
Texas Colony at No 90 Temple street. In the
afternoon meeting of those wishing to go TO
Texas was held, and upwards of twenty signed
paper headed as follows:
We, the undersigned, hereby subscribe our
names and become members of the Texas
Colony being formed, with headquarters at %
Temple street, Portland, and we agree to abide
by the rules and regulations that may be
adopted, and desire to have all matters con-
dncted in such manner as to commend them
selves to the confidence and support of the best
citizens.
The meeting organized temporarily by choos-
Lawrence, Secretary. w. Fl. Severns, r. A.
Robinson and r. B. Whitcomb we've appointed
a committee on nominating permanent officers
They will report at a meeting to be held to-day.
The plan is to choose President and a
Treasurer who are residents of this city, and
gentlemen who do not intend to. 60 to Texas.
Three of he directors will be members of the
Colony, as will be the Vice President. After a
permanent organization is effected Mr.. Hanson
will lay bis plans before them. He does not
propose to give them farms and pay, the trans.
portatioD, tut he has very business like
proposition to make the Colony when it is
organized. He will ask the Colony to choose
three of their most practical men to 60 to
Texas with him and see the land they
are to settle upon. The tract now proposed is
In Kimple county, and the land is said to be
excellent. 1t is we'll watered, and the 10th
fork of the river Llama flows through the
centre.
Last evening there was very large meeting
at the rooms on Temple street. Mr.. Hanson
addressed them at some leugtb and about
forty signed their names to the list of members.
1t is expected that a permanent organization
will be effected to-day

Personal.

DR.. Fred Quinby of Saco, has been appointed
Pension Surgeon.
MY. Horace Jordan formerly of this city, but
now of the Brooklyn Eagle, is engaged to write
the leading article for the August number of
Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly Magazine
His topic will be the Crimean War of 1876,
giving condensed history of the causes of that
struggle together with brief account of the
battles of the Alma Balaklava, and Inkermann,
and the siege of Sebastopol. Many friends in
this city will be pleased to learn that Mr. Jor-
dan purposes to return to Portland sometime
during the present month where he will remain
till autumn.
The recent developments regarding the tragic
death of the officers crew and passengers of
the steamship George S. Wright. are of partic.
ular interest to many Maine people from the
fact that Col John S. Walker was one of the
victims. He was native of Fryeburg. Lat
terly he has been stationed at Portland, Oregon,
and was on trip from that city to Sitka, to
pay troops, when the disaster occurred which
led to his untimely death. His newly-wedded
wife was with him, and she was probably the
passenger alluded to in the story of the Indian
Coma, the only survivor.
1t is singular coincidence that while Mr..
George Rignold, London actor, was playing
'Colonel Chaliice'' in "Alone in this city, Mr.
james A. Arnold, SO well-known on Portland
boards, was taking the same part at the Surrey
Theatre, London. Mr. Arnold's impersonation
won high praise. One of the London dramatic
reviews says: "We give hearty praise to Mr.
j. A. Arnold for his careful and effective en-
bodiment of the stern Colonel who, for so long
Ia time, resents his daughters fault, and who
8 so slowly induced to recognize her. Mr..
Arnold played the character with much feeling,
and always in good taste, never INDUCING in
the slightest exaggeration." At the farewell
benefit to Mr.. Ores wick before that geptlemap's
departure for Australia Mr.. Arnold assumed
the part of the ghost in Hamlet and delighted
the critics with his fine voice. That voice
would be the most effectual means of drawing
crowded house at Portland theatre today.

MISTAKEN IDENTITY.-Abouta week ago
deputy sheriff of Cumberland County was
waited upon by young lady living less than
thousand miles from Portland, who complained
that her husband had suddenly left home and
the wife of one of the neigbbors had left her
husband at the same time, and the belief was
strong in her breast that the pair wers living in
an unlawful manner in this city. The sheriff
came to this city, and instead of looking up
the matter himself as he was engaged to- turn
ed it over to the police. Special Detective Seth
Sterling was detailed TO look up the case. He
obtained photographs of the pair and that of
the lady shows her to be possessed of great per-
sonal beauty. Wednesday night the detective
visited the theatre and thought he esped the
OBJECT Of. his search. In fact he was so sure of
it that be sat down and witnessed the perform
auce to the close. Then be waited until the
supposed young Lothario came in sight on his
way out of the hall, when be attracted his at.
tention and called him enc side The photo
graph was shown the young man, but be failed
to recognize in it his own likeness. and the lady
on his arm supposed it was joke and set up a
laugh. Fortunately for the detective some one
in the vicinity knew the couple who were being
interviewed, and mildly suggested to his high
ness that be had made blunder, as they were
were well known residents of this city. Then
the curtain dropped
While the enterprising detective was watch
ing the performance at the theatre, the couple
he was really after were preparing to leave the
city, having spent week at private residence
within a stone's throw of Civ Hall They 1o-
parted on the midnight train and had the mat
ter been given to the patrolmen they would
haYe been arrested at the depot.

DIR. ScHENCK's PULMoNIo SYRUP, SEA WEED
TONIC AND MANDRAKE PnLs.-These medicines
have undoubtedly performed more cures of Con-
sumption than any other remedy known to the
American public. They are compounded of vege-
table ingredients, and contain nothing which can be
injurious to the human constitution. Other RENE
dies advertised as cures for Consumption, probably
contain opium, which is somewhat dangerous
drug in all cases. and if taken freely by consumptive
PATIENTS it must do great injury; for its tendency is
to confne the morbid matter in the system, which,
of course must make cure impossible. Schenck's
Pulmonic Syrup is warranted not to contain a
particle OF opium: 1t is composed of powerful but
harmless herbs, which act on the lungs, liver
stomach and blood, and thus correct all morbid
secreons and expel all the diseased matter from the
body These are the only means by which Com
sumption can be cured, and as Schenck's Pulmonic
Syrup, Sea Weed Tonic, and Mandrake Pills are the
only medicines which operate in this way, it is
obvious they are the only genuine cure for
Pulmonary Consumption. Each bottle of this
invaluable medicines accompanied by full directions.
Dr. Schenck is professionally at his principal Office
corner Sixth and Arch Streets, Philadelphia, every
Monday, where all letters tor advice must be
addressed.

freight house. Mr.. Goodwin was found next
day in the river dead; the horse and carriage
were part of the way down the embankment;
the horse was also dead. This suit is brought
by the administrator to recover damages, which
are laid at $4,000.
