Swine TINT are not CIoven-Hoofed.

There is breed of swine in Texas, whose
hoofs are not cloven. DR.. Cones has recent
ly examined specimens of these swine, and
he declares that 1.-The animal is completely
solidungulate." The hoof is perfectly solid.
and on its sole there is broad, angular ele-
walton OF horny substance, which is curiously
like the frog Of the horses hoof The breed
is so firmly established that no tendency to
revert to the two-toed form is observable, In
case of a cross between the solid-hoofed boar
and a sow of the ordinary type, the majority
of the progeny have the pecullarities of the
male parent. DR.. Cones says that there is,
in this instance, case of change from an
artiodactyle mammal to perissodactyle
from eyen-toed to odd. toed). But Prof. j.
ID. Dana contends that the pig is no less
artiodactye than before, since, although the
two toes are coalesced at their extremity,
they are still present, and the outer one of
the two equals the inner, which. he main
tains, is the characteristic Of the even-toed
mammals.

The election has placed its quietus upon
many aspiring office seekers and quelied the
political storm that has relgned over the
Territory for the past two months. AS to
the judgment exercised in terminating
The final result, we are not prepared to say;
though it is nc doubt in accord with the will
at the majority. Major Maginnis has been
elected by an overwhelming vote. Judge
Orr, his opponent, is an able an efficient
gentleman and would have worked faithful
ly for his constituents, had he been elected,
but, there is, perhaps, no man i'll the Terri
tory who could have won the fight against
Mr.. Maginnis, possessed, as he is, OF a record
of such faithful service; one, too. mared by
so few errors, less, perhaps, than that OF
any man who has represented our Territory
in Congress, and, backed as he was by a sol
id Democracy. The large vote is the great
est tribute of appreciation that a grateful
people could give.
In the choosing of legislators, politics do
not seem to have played much part. The
legislature elect will. we think, average in
mental calibre and sound integrity with any
previous one, ia fact, we would rate it su-
perior. The industrial and tax-paying in
terests are largely represented. Our farm
ing and stock growing interests are, we be-
lieye, better represented than any other par
ticular industry, and we are impressed with
the hope that the coming together OF this
body will be productive of much to our Ter
ritory.
In the matter of District A~ttorneys-of-
fees of considerable importance to the peace
and welfare OF the community, though bat
lightly regarded by the people-personal
tayoritism seems to have ruled. The select
ion of county officers, has, so far as we are
able to Judge, been a departure from parti-
ian politics and an adherence to men. But
few straight tickets were voted by either
party. which goes to show that party lines
were in the main broken down and a zeal
GUS effort made to elect the best men. Just
how far the result proves this we are not at
present writing sufficiently acquainted to
know.

The Springfield Gazette copies from the
HERALD an item in regard to the Spring
field and Jackson Coal Company, and
adds:
s'In addition to this S. J. & P. Company
have made arrangements to run a switch
to a very rich coal bank on the premises
of Mr.. A. s. Kyle, also up what is known
as Horse Creek, to open out several proli-
fic banks in that region. Corroborative
of the above description of the coal, en-
gineers who have used it, say it makes 20
per cent. more steam than the same
amount of Hooking coal and that it's value
is about IS cents more on the ton. In re-
gard to the price, it is bought at the mines
for cents per bushel and is hauled to the
cars for cents. A local director and a
gentleman we'll posted on the matter, in
forms us that as soon as the switches are
completed, it can be put on the Narrow
Gauge cars at cents, and at the same
freight rate charged by the Hooking Val
ley Road, delivered in this city at II
cents per bushel at the most"
