One piece goes down again and rakes my ear

The Juveniles when in Galveston

The Juveniles when in Galveston
had some little internal trouble, re-
sulting in the secretary leaving the
company. He was u warm friend
of young Arthur Dunn and the
MILDLY" both of whom desired to
leave the company with him. Quite
a scene occurred at the depot when
the troupe left and Dunn and little
''fatty" wanted to stay behind with
their friend. 1t was through the
tears and entreaties of Dunn's sister
that he was persuaded to remain
with the company, but "fatty" re-
NAMED with his friend. He was in
Galveston Sunday after the troupe
had left him, and looked like fish
out of water.

TIIE New York Herald says: We
are glad that the last week has come.
We care little for the result of the
election. knowing that the country
is safe ANYHOW, but we are anxious
to have it over. We trust it will be
remembered as the last campaign of
calumny. The calumny campaign
began even before the nominating
conventions met. IL was directed
against the candidates of both par
ties-Tilden. Grant, Bayard. Blaine
and Sherman. The stream could
not be stopped. 1t ran on, swelling
and bursting, and filing the land
with noisome odors. Perhaps four
years from now we shall be in a
higher frame OF mind. and remem-
bering the degradation of the can
vass of Garfield and Hancock try

call the better and purer days of the

Lawrence Haggerty, says the Err
press, has.left for parts unknown.
He was United States soldier, and
located IN Bracket where he became
postmaster, and rose to the rank of
United States Commissioner. Being
of an energetic disposition. he soon
determined, after securing the COM
missionership. TO make things lively
in his district and one of his first
acts was to ~make sixth or seventy
cases against stock men for fencing
in mail routes. These men were put
to great expense and Inconvenience,
but Lawrence was making money
out of them, or, rather, out of the
government, by hauling them over
the Goals, and what cared he how
much they suffered. 1t is said by a
United States officer that he realized
from twelve to fifteen hundred dol.
lars out of these cases, and has gone
to some other country, having been
requested to resign after narrow
escape. himself, from being punished
on q serious charge.

The rereneron-Nornan Horse.

The Percheron and Norman grades
are now spreading rapidly over the
country, from Canada on the north
to Virginia ON the south, and from the
Eastern States TO those of the fur
therest west. These horses stand
from fifteen TO nineteen hands high
and weigh from lS00to 1900 pounds.
Their superiority over other large
European breeds consists in their
ivory-like bones, firm, tough mus
Giles; handsome, powerfully knit
blocky forms, extra strong joints
and limbs, and clear, tough hoofs,
well set up at the heels. This last
good point enables them TO endure
stony roads and city pavements bet
ter than most of the other large
classes Of horses. Added to the
above, even those of the biggist size
are very active, with fast and rea-
sonahly quick trot- They are as
great in endurance, high. spirit and
iudomtable courage, yet gentle and
docile of disposition, little predis-
posed to disease of any kind, and
especially those of the legs and feet
to which other large breeds are Sc
liable.

DIR. L. r. Ellis, of Detroit, pub
fishes warning in the Detroit Eren-
ing NelrS to cOnsumptives, and adj
yises them to leave the cold and
damp climate of the lakes for Texas.
While there is no way known to
remedy all this mortality, yet a large
share of it is avoidable. This last
consists in a change of climate. For
some years | have given this matter
considerable attention, and am salts
fed that there is no locality in the
United States, and perhaps not on
the Western Hemisphere, equal to
the highlands of Central and West
ern Texas. The climate there is
dry, mild and salubriOus. The ele-
Walton takes one above the damps
and fOgs which are so fatal in
Florida and on sea coasts generally.
| should estimate that there are two
or three thousand inyalids in this
state now who would be cured or
greatly benefited by temporary or
permanent residence in Texas. Ii
we have a severe winter and they
attempt to remain here by the end
of March next, three-fourths of them
win be 'chiroing with the angels.
and while they make a rich harvest
for doctors with their tonics, syrups,
elixirs, inhalations, etc. one-fourth
of them only viii survive, and not
many of these fully cured. A re-
moyal to Texas will cure or greatly
benefit three-fourths. which makes
an amazing difference in mortuary
results.
