THE stories afoat about General
Grants losses in stock speculations are
probably without any foundation. An
intimate friend of his, who is supposed
to know a good deal about his private
affairs, declares that the general has
not been specializing on the New York
stock board, but is outstanding his re-
sources in more sensible and econ
omical manner. General Grants in
come now, from former accumulations,
gifts and salary, must be amply suffi-
cient for all the reasonable wants of
himself and his family.

HOW GOV. DAVIS WAS DEFEATED.

Now that the smoke of the battle is cleared
away, we can view the situation with compos-
ure. Some two weeks before the election, a
warning came that Wash Jones was playing
traitor to Governor Davis. The warning was
based on observation, but the battle was too
near at hand to change fronts: we hoped TOR
the best, and only when Col. Jones deserted
the 10th District entirely did we feel that our
worst fears might be realized.
A small item appeared in the Austin States
man, to the effect that Judge Ireland had sent
word to his friends to scratch his name to save
Hancock; it contained the gist of the trade
Jones' friends in Bastrop, Travis, Williamson
and Burnett traded Davis off for Jones.
How great the contrast between this canvass
and the last in which Col. Jones was candl-
date, and Gov Davis refused to enter against
him and took the stump in his favor.
THE foreign dispatches are burdened with
story that at meeting of Lord Waterford's
hounds at Curraghmore, number Of farmers
and peasants tried to prevent the hunt, and
were whipped out by the bloods with their
"whips" Why did the farmers oppose the
fox hunt; was it because they were envious OF
the fine gentlemen and ladies who came to-
gether for a days sport! not at all, but
because these aristocrats are accustomed to
ride down and destroy the crops of the farmers
and to disregard all of their rights. It's a
good thing for those bloods that they had
poor Irish peasantry to crack their whips over,
instead of Texas farmer.

Mesmerism Versus Ether and Chloroform

heSmtFlSI NeFsuh anu
Louisville, November II.-At the homepa-
thy dispensary, yesterday, singular opera
ton was performed. A colored man, VIM.
Tell, was suffering from large tumor growing
on his face and neck. The surgeons attemp-
ted, before commencing the operation for its
removal with the knife, to place the subject
under the influence of ether and other anaes-
thetics. but the patients system refused the in
fuence of the strongest applications. DR.. A.
G.. Smith, one Of the surgeons of the dispen-
Sary then tried to mesmerize Tell, which was
speedily effected by the patient remaining in
sensible to pain when pin was struck nearly
through his hand. The operation Of removal
began at nine-thirty a. m, but owing to the
size of the core, the operation was not conclu-
ded until II, during which time the operation
was made. After the application of the usual
resorts to stop the flow Of blood, Tell was kept
hypnotized all the time. When the operation
had been completed, the patient was aroused
and stated that he had been conscious of al
that was said and done, but felt no pain what,
ever. The operation was performed by Drs
NTH and Koehler, of the dispensary staff, and
is causing much comment in medical circles
on the improvement on the use Of anaesthe
tics. Tell is doing finely.

IRELAND COMMENTS.

The nomination of Hon. John Ire
land for governor has received an
enthusiastic response from every
point heard from.
Express special-The notice of the
nomination of John Ireland for gov
ernor of Texas by the Democratic
convention was received here Com
anche, Texas) to-day with the firing
OF anvils and general jubilee among
his friends here, which are largely
the majority of the voters of this
county. They objected to a third
term for the Old Alcalde.
Colorado Citizen The Democra-
tic convention has done its work
well. Ireland is a strong mana sound
man, a good man, and an 'Indepen-
dent" may as well save trouble and
expense and keep out of the field,
for Judge Ireland will be elected our
next governor as sure as he lives.
We have not the slightest doubt but
that his majority will exceed that of
Governor Roberts at the last cleo
ton.
San Antonio Times: In Hon. John
Ireland, the Democracy of the state
will find an able, honest and true
Democrat, and one in whose hands
the helm OF state can safely be en-
trusted. From the reputation here
tofore sustained by Mr.. Ireland we
feel confident that he will, when he
accepts the nomination, plant him
self firmly upon the principles and
state policy contained i'll the plat
form of the party, and he will be
guided by the same in administering
the state government,
