Peyion in the injunction suit brought
by w. T. Soden, restraining the city
from taking water from the Cottonwood
river, and asking for the vacation OF the
supply well nj the waite. works, will
prove a matter Of decided interest TO our
readers. The practical effect OF the find
ing OF the eonrt is TO sustain the injunc-

taking water from HE well, and leaves
the city, ~ far as this decision is regard
ed, with very complete system of
water works barring the some What i'm

The National Pastime,

Rio GRANDE CITY, Texas, January c.
Rumors of revolution in the State of Du-
range. Mexico, have reached here. Particu-
lars, however, are meagre. Gen. TrevinO,
who was ordered from Monterey to suppress
the instruction in that State, has been de-
feated by the revolutionists, ard is calling for
assistance. All the available troops at Mon
tcray have been sent to his aid. The gov
ernment is raising troops by CONSUMPTION.
A young American from here was forced into
the ranks despite his protest, but he succeed
ed in escaping and arrived here last night.
The opinion is that this revolution will be
general, as ii is well planned. 1t is under
stood that throughout the greater part OF
Mexico it will have gained immense proper
tons by the first of March. The Rio Grande
border will be the scene of no small part OF
this revolt.

ever, that there is no military force there,
nor any armed men, nor are arms to be taken
unless it is made necessary by resistance to
the laws, aud then only by authorized per-
sons under lawful commands, at the call of

We infer that Pillsbury and Waterhouse
feel that the acme of journalism is attained
by carping at peoples notwithstanding
faces at the shape of their heads, their man
ner of utterance, the form of their
limbs, ridculing them for their want
of culture whether the person assaulted
ever had any means of culture or not. Men
of culture and manners never thus speak of
peoples misfortunes. On nothing il the in
" shown. Pillsbury and Waterhouse appear
to have clean monopoly of this sort of
journalism. They seem swift to improve
and in this they make proof clear of the in
nate nastiness of their natures. 7.

Getting Out a Morning Newspaper.

SAYS Mr.. Charles T. Congdon in his
"reminiscences of a Journalist" in the
~ Y TIibnne:
OF the toll which a newspaper de-
mands, of the unceasing attention which
it exacts, of the iudicious care which it
desires, the great public of readers
takes no account. Those who come to the
breakfast table, more or less bilious, ex-
pect to find in their morning sheet some
thing like perfection, and ID not mean
to say that they are not right in expect
ing it. But when they glance hastily
over the columns, and then judicially
declare there is nothing in them, they
may often forget there is every thing in
them of importance which has hap
pened in the world during the past
tWenty-four hours-that so, rs, 100,
may be 150 men tOiled all night while
these snap critics were sleeping, their
heads, as Carlyle says, "full of the
foolishest dreams worked to make
up this great compendium, this map,
the picture of day, "i its fluctuations
and its vast cOncerns.n 1t might lead
the dissatisfied purchaser 10 revise his
Judgment If he could stand, between I
and 2 O'Clock in the morning, in the

witness the intense excitement, all kept

which characterizes the makeup " of
the sheet which he sometimes dismisses
so contemptuously. The night editor,
If then in a state to speak to any body
nationally, might tell him that the great
point was not SO much what should 90
in as what should be left out. For there
never was a morning paper yet which
was big enough for all the matter pre-
pared for it; and there never can be.
The larger the sheet the more news will
come to it t-for every additional column
three columns of intelligence, or OF
matter of some sort, will demand ad-
mission. Again, the rule is that there
shall be no mistakes, 1t is inexorable,
yet thrice happy is the journal in which
Il is never violated. There are more
mistakes than the sagacious public ever
finds out. Nowhere is a newspaper 50
criticised as in its own office.
