RECENT ROMAN GL.DIATOxs.

There is said to be a conspicuous absence
of the old Roman now in Rome. We hear of
a recent ARRAY between clericals and liberals
growing out Of some relations Of clergy and
government which our purpose does not re-
qure us to understand. The affair exhibited
such piti(ul absence of all the elements which
constitute an ARRAY on our side of the Atlantic,
such miserable lack of pistols, axes, slung
shots, even of bowie knives, not one Of which
familiar weapon was fired, drawn, welded,
slung or seen, that we marvel how so much
excitement could abate under the mild,
though rabid demonstrations Of fists, and
harmless sticks the weightiest of which would
bring blush to the most inconsiderable shela-
lah that ever an honest celt was ashamed of
being seen in fight with.
The coroner was not wanted but there was
a judicial inquest by which both parties,
clericals and liberals, of which there were
about $50 total, were proved to be of the
persuasion known as gentlemen. Some were
of rank, some highly connecthd, ssme grandly
associated, all of which we understand, the
last being, we suppose in American phrase,
public officials. And these respectable pee
pie were shown to compose two factions
whose bitterness has descended from the papal
troubles. The Roman magistrate finds these
ARRAYS convertible, and the present formidable
and exasperating case was composed by the
adjudication of heavy fines, which made i,
pleasant for the Roman magistrate, provided
| fines in Rome take the American direction.
Alas! for Rome:
"When falls the Coli eum Rome shall fall"
What would an audience of the Coliseum,
in the days of old Rome, have said to SO de.
generate fight as disgraced the Eternal city
on this occasion? Why each individual spec.
tator would have committed suicide like a Ro
man general, would have scorned to live I'M
der humiliation so insupportable. o, abjec
Rome!
We would like to ask these degenerate
Romans question. We hold that when q
thing is to be done it should be done. Some
other editor might ask, What is the use o.
doing it-of fighting? But that is not GU,
question. We ask you simply, not wishing to
interfere with your Roman privileges, if YOU
fight why don't you fight? Why don't you
bring swords, pistols, daggers, blunder burses
and-fght?

FORT CLARK, Texas, June 18th, 1882.
To the Editor of THE EVENING LIGHT
Dry, hot, scorching weather! Every one
is vainly endeavoring to keep cool, and strug-
Cling to prevent the grass, plants, and even
weeds from disappearing entirely. Morning
and evening heavy draughtS are made upon
the water tanks, by those who are bound to
keep alive the precious vines, flowers and
shade trees; and, while the water-wagon gives
down its life-sus,aining element to the trees
around the parade, all along the line, in every
yard, may be seen, coming from the hose
sprinklers, miniature showers, believing the
parched and thirsty vegetation.
Ollas swing in nearly every hallway or
porch, and smoked eye glasses are all the
rage. Yet, in the evening as the sun nears
the horizon, and his burning rays fall more
aslant, the garrison awakes from its lethargy;
the band commence their evening concert;
ball-players throng the practice grounds; prom
enaders pass up and down, enjoying the
sweet music and the delicious, cool gull
breeze that has risen. Retreat sounds; the
sharp report of the sunset gun echoes from
hill to hill, and from bank to bank along the
Los Moras, and many take up the line OF
march Brackettwards, to pass the while till
tattoo.
