Mustangs in Texas Thirty Years
Ago.
Texas Mute Ranger I

Texas Mute Ranger.]
The word mustang is corruption OF
mesteno, the Mexican name for wild
horse. Many years ago there were thou
sands, no doubt millions, of those ami
mails in Texas. In 1849, and for several
years thereafter, they were numerous in
the region between the Nueces River and
the Rio Grande. They were found
further north, but not in such numbers.
Immense herds of wild horses could be
seen grazing on the prairics. When they
saw any one approaching the leader
would often move to the front and make
reconnaissance. If things did not suit
him, he would give his head peculiar
toss, wheel, and sound the note of
alarm.
These demonstrations would be fol-
lowed by prompt movement on the part
of the herd, sometimes to the front, bat
more usually to the rear. They would
wheel into line, change front, move in
line or in column, with as much pre-
cision and order as cavalry. 1t was won
derful to witness how we'll they were
drilled and disciplined. In the event a
retreat was ordered, the leader would
move in the rear for a while. If any
Jagged or struggled they were very apt to
feel his teeth, if not his heels. On some
occasions movement to the front was Or
dered. 1t was charge in line Or in COL
umn, proudly headed by the leader. This
was the case sometimes when mounted
men were in sight. The Texas Rangers
operating in that country were followed
by pack-mules in charge of a guard. 1t
was necessary at times to form a hollow
square, place the mules inside, and throw
out skirmishers to fire into the animals.
If the leader could be struck the charge
would be broken.
The horses would retire at once. The
mustangs were hunted by Mexicans, and
fine-looking ones singled out and lassoed.
Whole herds were driven at run into
pens having extended wings, which con-
tracted as they approached the gate. As
many as five hundred mustangs have
been penned at one "run." They were
sold at almost nothing, SIS being high
price for choice horse. These mus
hangers were wild set, often no better
than Indians; some of them were honest,
good men. They were guilty of many
murders and robberies. The Comanches
made many visits to that region. They
would pounce upon the mustangers, set
them afoot, or kill them, as caprice die.

Rector. He is paid by the Government,
/ believe, l,100 francs, or f44 year.
This 1,l00 francs is subject to a deduc-
tiOn for various taxes, national and dio-
cesar, of 300 francs, leaving the stipend
of the Rector at f36 year. I admit
that he could live on this sum as an
anchorite, as one of the peasants, but
however much the clergy may preach
the loveliness of poverty, never yet
knew one who couried it for himself. l
don't say they ask more than is reason
able, but do say they ask to live as
educated men live, as men live
who have acquired by education hab-
its and ideas which separate them from
peasant life, and from the grossness of the
manners and diet of the poor. The Rec
tor here does as other Rectors, Cures, and
clergy do, he asks for more. At certain
seasons he goes round for his tithes, which
are voluntary, and from an unwilling
peasantry he collects a decent income.
He told me himself that people hated
giving, and hence hated the priests. l
could have told him how bitterly his own
people had spoken to me about priests in
general and himself in particular,
although they said he was a decent man,
and had no other fault to find with him
but his love of money-a love of money
which l found SO moderate that l believe
his whole income with all these additions
does not touch f100 year. In very
fact, he is nice man, with a pleasant
manner, and he works as hard as a peas
ant at his services, fearing even to 60 out
TO sea with me in my boat, lest people
should say he was absent from his parish
and his duties.

An Espada.
rTinsley's Magazine.l

If tauromachy will last in Spain as
long as Spain lasts, so likewise those who
practice the art be held in honor. No
names are held in fonder reverence there
to-day than those of Monies, Pepets and
Pepe-Hillo; and when Frascuelo was
wounded some time ago, his residence
WAS besieged by sympathizing inquirers.
The bulletins of his health were read as
anxiously as if they were issued from a
royal palace. Bouquets, pastry and
billets-doux were laid in tribute on the
mat of his bed chamber and the sweetest
and proudest danes of the sweet and
proud patrician houses of CASTLE, houses
with sangre azul unsuspicious in their
veins and thirteen grandees in their ped
igree, sent to inquire after the condition
of the famous espada. Tom Savers was
never more idolized in England than
Frascuelo is iii Spain. And, in like
manner, are his compeers Laharitio and
the rest.
This liking for them is pushed to ex-
cess, much as the cult for heroes of the
prize-ring was with us in our own genera
ton. During stay in Seville, in the
indolent summer solstice once, l was

The Discovery of Matches.

The story of this discovery has been
told by Mr.. Holden himself in the
House OF Commons before select COM
mitiee appointed to inquire into the
workings of the Patent laws. We can
not do better, therefore, than give it in
his own words: II began as an inven-
tor on very small SCALE" said Mr..
Holden, in the course of his evidence.
For what know, was the first in
yentor of lucifer matches; but it was
the result of happy thought. In the
morning used to get up at O'Clock
used at that time the flint and steel,
in the use of which found very great
inconvenience. / gave lectures in
chemistry at the time at a very large
academy. Ofcourse l knew, as other
chemist did, the explosive material
that was necessary in order to produce
instantaneous light; but ii was very
difficult to obtain a light on wood by
that explosive mixture of sulphur. l
did that, and published it in my next
lecture, and showed it. There was q
young man in the room whose father
was chemist in London, and he i'm
nediatelly wrote to his father about
it, and shortly afterwards lucifer
matches were issued to the world. /
believe that was the first OCCASION that
we had the present lucifer match, and
it was one of those inventions that
some people think ought not to be
protected by q patent. [ think that
if all inventions. were like that, or if
we could distinguish one from the 9TH
er, the principle might hold good. If
all inventions were ascertained and
carried into practice with as much fa-
cility as in this case, no one would
perhaps think Of taking out a patent.
1 was urged to go and take out pat
ent Immediately, but thought it was
so small a matter, and it cost me so
little labor, that L did not think it
proper to go and get patent. other
wise l have no doubt it would have
been very profitable. ."-London Socie-
