Now the Texas Cow. Boy Lives.

A letter from San Antonio, Texas,
TO the New Orleans Democrat says:
Zone of the distinctive features OF
Western Texas is the cowboy, so-called.
Heretofore there have been few in
closed pastures. The cattle and horses
have ranged at will over the prairies,
and when a norther prevails they be-
eoms widely scattered. When the
Spring Of the year returns, then "a
dozen or more of the young men of the
neohborhood mount their mustangs,
taking each aspare horse, the company
having several sumpter horses, and
seourt the prairies for many miles, some
time fifty or sixty in one direction.
Th93 excursions last about ten days or
two weeks. They bivouac at night,
cook their " meals, seldom enter a
house, drink quantities of black coffee,
generally without sugar, kill a yearling
when they want meat, and are truly
laugh and ready riders. This kind of
Inc seems to have an inexpressible
charm for the young men. 1t is an
exciting scene to see them in full chase,
9th their lariats whirling over their
hods, their mustangs as much excited
by the race as themselves. From this
school comes the noted Texas ranger,
and 1t would be hard to find a better
training for a cavalry soldier. Their
splendid qualities were exhibited on
many hard-fought fields during our
late war;

HARD times have caused a feal

HARD times have caused a fearful
increase Of crime and vagrancy in New
Hampshire. Farmers in sparsely-set-
tied regions say that they have never
lived In such fear of violence from
tramps, nor suffered s much from
thieving from their granaries, poultry
yards and clothes lines, and in more
than q score Of place extrapolicemen are
nightly on duty unknown to the public.
The State Prison has nearly doubled the
average number Of convicts from 1870
to 1875. They now number IT'S, with
the promise of an increase to 200 by the
time the Legislature meets.

A "Cerset Liver

Some medical students in one of the
colleges Of Boston, ~dissecting u female
subject a few days ago, found what is
called in doctors p~arlance, a ''corsei
liver" When tight lacing has been
practiced through several years, a per
manent dent or hollow is produced in
the liver, which may be seen very plain
ly after the woman is dead and her
liver dissected out. This kind OF liver
occurs 80 frequently in women that
physicians have given 1t the name OF
''corset liver In the subject men-
toned, the hollow in the liver was large
enough for the wrist of a grown man
to be laid on it. Young ladies who
don't want their livers put into the
newspapers and made an awful example
Of after they are dead, would better
take warning.

THE jealousy Of France and England
has been excited by a scheme alleged to
have recently come to light, by which
Germany is trying to bring Belgium
under her guardian wings. England
does not like this proposed territorial
sggrandirement Of the German Empire,
and France does not relish the prospect
Of Germany, her old enemy, being her
next-door neighbor.

Crooked Accounts or the chief Engineer or

by Nouchcrs-Mr. IiOlmnn's investigation.

WASHINGTON, Fob. 1i-To-day there have
been rumors in this city OF large deficit in the
accounts Of an important public official 1t is
asccrtaincd tonight that the official in question
| IN Gen. Orvillc i. Babcock. Engineer in Charge OF
Public buildings and Grounds. and Chief Eng-
nccr Of the Washington Aqucduct. Babcocks
accounts have been for some time suspected OF
crookcdncss. Last year the Committee on
the Expenditures OF the War Department ut
tempted TO investigate Babcock. but failed to
reach his figures. Accordingly during tho
present session. at the request OF Mr..
Holman Of Indiana. the matter was transferred
to tho Committee on Public Buildings and
| Grounds, OF which he is chairman. On tho 9th
! OF last March the House passed a resolution in
structing the Chief of Engineers OF the United
| States Army to transmit tabular statements OF
the expenditures under each appropriation for
| the improvement of public grounds in the city
OF Washington. from July /. 1871. TO juno 80.
1873 The accounts were put in the hands of
an honest and ablo expert, who has given them
his close attention for the pAst two months in
cooperation with the committee. 1t Is said that
their careful and thorough examination Of the
accounts has led 10 the con fusion that Bobcock
fails to account for hundreds of thousands OF
dollars appropriated 10y Congress and placed in
his hands for expenditure.
Tho expenditures for which vouchers do APP
pear are in many cases suspicious. Bnbcock
has spent marvellous sums for repairs" Tho
dogs. eagles and prairie dogs belonging to the
Government and under his care have been at
tended to with wonderful libcrality. The dogs
have cost the nation at least $40 n month apiece.
There are new buggies and coupes enough to
transport small army. The flower garden has
cost n fortune; and yet his accounts will not
square.
