coffee into the United States--amount-
ing for the year 1876 to 339, TS9, ,246
pounds. and costing the people of this
country $50. .7ss .99T-and the possibility
and adyisability of introducing here the
cultivation of the coffee plant. The de.

information and suggestions as to the
condition of the soil and climate essen.

line which viii attract the attention OF
the world Dallas, where the road
touches the other great road of the
state and its connections, forming the
railroad system of the southwest, and
the most considerable city near It's
eastern base; Ell Paso, where the route
crosses the Rio Grande. and where it

The following lively sketch of the
above character is from the graphic
pen of W. K. Sullivan, esq. of the
Chicago Journal It will be reiished
for its bumor. rs well as being An item
of news for Texans:
Most of the killing in the cities is
the result of bust head" whisky. The
ex-mayor of Austin told me about a
young man from one of the northern
states. who was sort of amateur des-
perado. He had been good deal OF a
fellow at home. where he could swear
and swagger arousd with impunity.
But he grew ambitious, and so nothing
would do put he must start with his
arsenal for Austin, where he got as
drunk as tiddlers clerk. Then moth.
ing would do but he must" I" kill a
man with plug hat" A man with
any other kind of hat would not suit
his fasiidious taste He hankered for a
plug hat with q man under it, and after
while he was accommodated. In
Austin, at the time. was professional
desperate, regular kill 'em quick,
who had laid out half a dozen men on
the frontier He heard of the anna
tenrs l"nging to "kill man with q
plug hat" SO he put on one, and q
pair of kids, and sauntering into the
saloon where the amateur was monarch
OF ail be survey ed, asked, in consump.
tive tone, for a drink The amateur
saw him, and was delighted. "Yon're
the fellow I've been looking for. I'm
bound to kill a mans with plug hat
Oh, you wouldn't kill a poor, sickly
man like me. would your answered
the professional Yes. | would, and
| will, yelled the amateur, drawing
and cooking his pistol In the twink.
ling oil an eye the amateur was running
| out OF that saloon crying for mercy and
begging for life. The professional had
fred two shots into him, one on the
right side and the other on the left, in
the vicinity of his diaphragm Next
morning, when the mayor went to take
his deposition, he declined to proses
cute his professional brother, saying
that he earned what he got, and that
he ought to have been killed. Soon
after he recovered, retired from the
desperate business, and went home
cured Of his almost unconquerable aver
sion for men with plug hats. As / in
tlmated before, most of the killing in
Texas is the result Of saloon brawls-at
least in the cities believe this is also

There has been good deal of com,
ment in Washington upon the temper
OF General Ewing's speech. after hi. de-
feat for senator, and particularly that
part of IT where he said that the demo
cratic party Of the west should divorce
itself from New York, New Jersey and
New England, if it hoped to attain a
lasting supremacy. While the green>
hackers applaud it, and say that i, is as
sound doctrine as could be preached by
anybody, aud declare that the issue will
be made on these very grounds before
another presidential campaign shall
come around, it was declared by the
cooler heads as heterodoxy.

The Sherman Register of the 18th CO.
incides with THE HERHLD on the subject
of Governor Throckmorton's candidacy.
We give the paragraph:
The popular expression in favor of
Hon j. W .Throckmorton for governor,
coming from all quarters of the state. is
such as to leave him no choice in the
matter OF allowing his name to be used
for that position. We have the best of
reasons for stating that Mr. Throek>
morton would gladly retire from public
service for awhile. and devote his time
to his private affairs, which are sadly

of tax money is involved, and which
they must repay sooner or later in
