HOW TO DEAL WITH MEXICO.

TIE Menican authorities UntUiILing to Put
stop to Stealin0-Folly of LIolf- Way
Measures.
Galveston (Tex.) News.
1t is evident to everybody who has paid
the slightest attention to Mexican affairs
that the Mexican authorities at the City of
Mexico are not only unwilling, but also un-
able, to enforce law and order. In fact, the
Mexican government has not sufficient re-
liable force on the Rio Grande to enforce
their own custom-house regulations. Raid
ing into Texas could be broken up by CO.
operation with the Mexican troops; but the
truth is the Mexicans do not propose to as
slst the United States forces at all, but, on
the contrary, to rally in defense of the
thieves, as they did when Gen. Mackenzie
followed band over the Rio Grande few
weeks ago. This hostile action on the part
of the officers of the central government
joins the issue. There is now nothing left
for the United States government to do but
either to back completely down from the
order directing Gen. Ord to cross the Rio
Grande under certain circumstances or ->lse
to uphold the order to its fullest extent, and
protect Texas from the Mexican side of the
Rio Grande. The Mexicans virtually declare
they will continue to fit out expeditions
for the purpose of invading Texas, and driv-
ing stock back into Mexico, and that the
United States shall not be permitted to stop
it by following the thieves to their holes. If
it is, as has been semi officially announced,
the intention of the Washington authorities
to uphold the dignity of the national flag,
and at the same time carry out the terms of
annexation, by afording Texas protection
againstIM exican banditti, it is to be hoped that
no halfway measures will be taken. as the
Texans are the only sufferers by them. 1t
has been the custom and policy of the United
States to send troops across the Rio Grande
to stir up the hornets nest, and then to fall
back, leaving the Texas frontiersmen to suf-
fer from the raids of the exasperated Mexi-
cans. The Rio Grande frontier, fourteen
hundred miles in length, is defended by less
than twenty-five hundred men, if such an
array of troops to that length of frontier
can be called "a Defense" Hence, if hostile
expeditions are sent over into Mexico some
assurance should be given the Texans on the
border that they will be protected from the
retaliation which is sure to follow. To main.
tain status of actual warfare on, the Rio
Grande with less than twenty-five hundred
fighting men, is the height of absurdity on
| the part of the secretary of war.

BUT little comfort can be extracted by the
creditors of the bankrupt estate of Jay
Cooke from the statement of the trustees
published in yesterdays GLOBE. Although
the assets, at the time of the failure, were
reported to be nearly eight millions of
dollars, but one per cent. dividend has yet
been paid. The balance of the property has
been eaten up by taxes and costs, except a
small fragment, which it is proposed to
capitalize and divide to creditors in the form
of scrip. This scrip will be bought at q
ruinous discount, of course, by those in the
ring, SO that ultimately the creditors will get
little or nothing. Meantime Jay Cooke is
enjoying his leisure in luxurious ease at
Newport, and does not appear to be troubled
for money.

THE MINNESOTA CROPS.

Pennington Dakota county, Press, July
"a: Our farmers commenced on Monday to
cut their wheat in earnest. The reports are
very conflicting. On some fields near here
the wheat is much shrunken and there will
not be half the crop Of last year, In other
places and on high lands the wheat is more
plump and the promise better. It is certain
that there will be much damage from blight,
and one farmer tells us there will not be a
bushel of No. 1 wheat in this county. On
the whole it if safe to say that not much
over ten to twelve bushels to the acre will be
harvested in this vicinity. In or near the
timber lands the damage will be less. It is
upon old and WORKOUT soil that the blight
is most apparent.
Eureka, Dakota county: Harvest began
on the 22d. Wheat badly blighted, and old
farmers say will only yield 10 to Is bushels

but no other damage was done.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis, July 25.-The heaviest
rain that has visited this section for two wears
set in last night abont midnight, continuing
through the night and well into to-day, with
not much present prospect of ceasing. If the
rain has been general throughout the region of
the upper Chippewa and tributaries, as there
is good reason to believe. there will be rise
sufficient to bring down the logs remaining of

The farmers began cutting wheat on Monday
and have had good weather up to to-day but
the rain will put stop to their work, and will
thoroughly soak the grain already put in shock.
If the wet spell should be continued consider
able damage to the crop will result. The prob
ability now is that the wheat crop will not ex-
ceed two-thirds the estimate of few weeks
ago, perhaps less.

the pompous and prosy Washburn through
