Trouble among StOckmen.

The newspapers for some time have con-
tanned numerous accounts Of trouble caused
by large enclosures excluding oil but the
owners or managers from water, roads, etc.
In many cases the fences have been cut.
The following dispatch from Dallas to the
Austin Statesman will give some idea Of the
situation:
Hon. M. McComb, of Montgomery county
was in the city to-day, en- route from Wise
and adjoining Northwest Texas counties.
He represents that the most serious troubles
and open collisions are liable to occur at al
most any moment in that section between
the large stock rancho owners on one side
and the "nestlers" as the cattlemen of mod
crate or small limited means are termed. and
and certain element of cowboys, mostly
those unemployed on the other side. The
fence cutting is the cause of the threatened
conflict. Mr.. McComb represents both
sides to the controversy to be quietly arm
ing and everything foresha dowing blood
she'd He says, that from his observations
the causes of the trouble are mainly that the
big cattle companies fence up large tracts of
land that that they have purchased, and in
many instances vast amounts that they
have no claim to. They keep their own
stock and everybody else's off of their en-
closed lands and Craze their herds on the
common lands till the grass is exhausted
and then turn their stock on the wire fenced
range and exclude the ''nestlers" element.
The latter swear that they will not tolerate
this, and demand common range for all
that they have as much right to the range
of the big cattle corporations as the last
named have TO the common range and that
of the small rsnehman, and that in no event
have the big companies the right to fence
off the public domain and get the exclusive
benefit of it. The unemployed cowboys,
Mr. McComb says, naturally side with the
nestlers as O matter Of self interest, as the
obliteration Of wire fences would give their
numerous fraternity the labor they have
been deprived of. The wire fence troubles
extend over an area Of hundreds Of
miles and involve several thousand men.
and as both sides appear equally deter
termined, Mr.. McComb says he can't see how
an open war can be averted. Both sides are
quietly arming for the afay. In addition
TO the fence cutting the nestlors and their
cor boy allies swear That they viii FIRE the
rAnge. burn all the grass. and let the stock
perish IN common before they viii submit
10 what they term the the monopoly and
autocracy Of the range

From Temple.
TEMPLE, Tex, Sept. 8, 1883

TEMPLE, lex, sept D, lcoo'
Ed. FREE Press; s;--This has been 'the
boss" season of the year for camp-meotings,
Freethinkers' associations, etc. Major
Penn has just closed his camp-meeting at
Bolton, resulting In 800 conversions; Rev.
J. ID. Shaw, the Freethinker, has just closed
series of lectures in Temple and the Rev.
Il. L. Scott is still holding forth in this city
in his tent north of town, preaching the
Campbellite doctrine. The Freethinkers
have very strong force In this county;
much larger than was thought to be, until
Mr. Shaw commenced his lectures here.
Camp-meetings seem to be quite numer-
ous this season in Bell county, and they are
we'll attended and enjoyed by oil denomina-
tions. They seem to be more partial to
camp-meetings than they do to religious ex'
ercises in tho churches. Probably they pre-
fer 'the camping out and eating part" to
any thing else.
1t is still very hot and dry in Temple, but
the town is steadily improving all the same
There is no Indication of rain and the stock
are suffering dreadfully for want Of water.
II is hard to get water even for washing and
cooking purposes.
The FREE Press is n regular and welcome
visitor to the Tribune Office now, aud there
is no weekly paper more highly priced among
its exchanges.
Your correspondent is sorry to learn that
the water-works in Snn Marcos are still hang
ing fire." but hope they will soon be in
successful operation. There is no town in
the State that would be beautified moro by
water-works than San Marcos, possessing as
she does such lovely river and pure spark
ling water, and there is no town the writer
would rather see prosper than San Marcos.
Several cotton and grain buyers have
opened up their offices here, and they say
their prospects for good business this fall
are very fattering.
Nothing more of special importance.

Correspondence of Hartford Courant) FISHING THROUGH FLOATING ISLAND.

eff it rains tomorrow, what say you to @ days fishing through floating island ?" in- quired my genial host, as we stood in the gar- den of southern Massachusetts parsonage one evening" wondering whether the redness of the western sky was that which betokens rain.
 Fishing through floating island!" The strangely of the fine piscatorial fancy which always throws halo of romance around "that one lost," but redeemed from suspicion by the character of the surroundings.
 So when morning came in with smart shower, local fisherman drove us off south ward by by-ways leading through tangled briars and alders, with here and there fine stretch of meadow and pasture land, past the boundary stone of three states, into the town of Thompson, Connecticut, where we were to beard the bull-head under his native heath. The pond, whose Indian name has slipped from mind, looked black and dismal in the pouring rain, but the floating island few rods from shore lent interest to the view.
 Our fisherman rowed us over in an old scow and stepped out with the tea-chests that both his followers had been told to bring along. The fishing ground bent under our feet at every step, so that the black water gurgled up around our ankles, but so thick and strong were the roots of the bushes and grasses in- tergrown that perfectly safe support was afforded. The island was apparently about fifteen inches thick and of several square rods in extent, and was thickly overgrown with bushes and small willows. Reaching the cen ter each of us cleaned out small hole cut through the island, and seated on our tea may be so dignifed, began to bite. They were voracious that day and struck the hooks as soon as they fell below terra tn-frma. We three, in less than three hours, took two hun dred and eighty-six bull-heads of fair size, be- sides several perch and roach. The fish were very dark in color, refecting the blackness of their haunt, but they were the sweetest and tenderest of bull-heads when cooked
 Fishing through floating island was a new experience, and an uncommon one, too, tho such formations as this are not altogether un- heard of. They are probably occasioned by the water eating into soft banks beneath the tenacious rockets of thick overgrowths, until at some weaker point it breaks forth, setting the new-made island adrift upon the lake, there to collect debris and thicken by yearly contributions of dead vegetation, or else to be scattered in the waters by wind and wave

There is 8 calm for those who weep; A rest for weary pilgrims found: They softly lie, and.sweetly sleep,
 Low in the ground The storm that wrecks the winter sky, No more disturbes their deep repose, Than summer-evening' latest sigh,
 That shuts the rose. long to lay this painful head, And aching heart, beneath the soil To slumber in that dreamless bed,
 From all my toll. Art thou a wanderer ?-hast thou seen Overwhelming tenlpests drown thy bark shipwrecked sufferer hast thou been,
 Misfortune's mark :? Though long of winds and waves the sport, Condemned in wretchedness to roam, Live! thou shalt reach sheltering port,
 A quiet home! There ;s @ calm for Shose who weep. rest for weary pilgrims found: And while the mouldering ashes sleep
 Low in the ground ;- The soul, of origin fpivine, Gods glorious image, freed from clay, In Heavens eternal sphere shall shine
 A star of day! The sua, is but speyk of fire, A transient meteor in the sky; The soal, immortal as its Sire,

cholera and furnish it the conditions for rap- i'd multiplication. The removal of filth and the needed sanitary improvements made with cholera at hand-only help spread the disease. The precautions should be taken be- fore there is any probability of it's appearance. Every place has it's nuisances which require concerted effort and more or less expenditure to remove. The lesson of the hour would seem plain enough. With pestilence depop- ulating the filthy, neglected quarters of the east, and rapidly advancing by reason of the neglect of common sense care for the proper disposal of filth, it would seem that there should be no need of large death rate from diarrhoeal diseases, to induce cities and towns to exert every available means to remove pu- trescible filth ftom their limits, and to secure pure water, and unpolluted air-as impure water and polluted air are the prime minis ters to cholera as we'll as other pestilential diseases

Dorsey told the Chicago reporter who invaded his cattle ranch that the secret of the New York Times's hostility to him was his selection of the weekly Tribune for campaign circulation in 1880. The Times says about this --
 This is lie. But we should not take the trouble to deny anything this thief says merely for the sake of removing any false impression it might create, for noth- ing he can say creates any impression or feeling whatever save of disgust. We re- fer to the matter simply to show how such falsehoods expose themselves. |. As 8 paid party organ we confess with pride that the Times is practically worthless. It has habit of scorching and branding bad republicans which makes it very uncom- fortable reading for persons who look at politics from Dorsey s point of view. Their idea of an organ is a newspaper that is silent about the rascals in it's own party, but perpetually belabors the democrats. As for the Times, it hates a republican thief rather worse than democrat thief, because it believes that man must be by nature monstrous villain who becomes corrupt and steals, as Dorsey did, while in such honest company.

Cooley's Weekly: Prosecuting Agent Montgomery recently purchased buggy of Norwich merchant and was driving about town in it the other day. At Frank lin Square he met the jolly Moses Lam bert of Occum, whom he has prosecuted not less than sixteen times for alleged it. legal liquor selling. Moses called halt, and with one of his comical smiles, that begin m front and run around and meet behind his ears, inquired "Where'd ye get that buggy "Oh, bought it of a man in town, D was the reply. "Well, do you know" i" said Moses, yanking up yard of his trousers, "that's the very buggy I smuggled all my whiskey to Occum in ?"

A STRANGE COINCIDENCE.

Speaking of strange coincidences, said Dooficker, 'I am reminded of thing that happened to me once I was standing on the breakwater here in Chicago one day in the summer of 1S42, when one of my cuffs dropped off into the lake and big fish came up and swallowed it. I mourned good deal over it, because the sleeve-but- ton in that cuff was made of gold that I dug myself in California in 1949. Well, time ran along and forgot all about the sleeve-button. Soon after that had the trouble with my hair and had to doctor for that"
 "What trouble was that, paw?" asked Theophilus.
 '.Why, didn't ever tell you about that Well, you see, found that I was losing but it seemed to be broken off near my head, and yet, although I lost considerable every night, there never was any loose hairs in the bed in the morning. I finally got friend to sit up and watch me one night, and in the morning he explained the whole thing. had bitten 1t off and swallowed the hair.
 "But to get back to my first story. One day about seven years after lost that cuff was walking on Manhattan Beach, arm in arm, with MT. Seligman, when he picked up something that was buried in the sand Why, that's silver,' said he. So it is,' said I, and sure enough, it was solid silver. But what is funnier, it was the identical sleeve-button had lost thirteen years be- fore in Lake Michigan. Now, what pug zles me is to know how that fish got way around to Manhattan Beach from Chicago"
 There was a short silence, which The ophilus interrupted, "What puzzles me, paw, is how the fish changed a gold sleeve button into silver one"
 Dooficker thought he heard one of the hens cackle and went out to see if she had laid an egg.

A novel method of effecting the removal of ring which has become constricted around round swollen finger, or in any other similar situation, consists simply in enveloping the afflicted member, after the manner of circular bandage, in length of fiat India rubber braid, such as ladies make use of to keep their hats on the top of their heads. This should be accurately applied aaot close to the ring, but at the tip of the finger, and leaving no intervals between the successive turns, so as to exert its elastic force gradually and gently upon the tissues underneath. When the binding is completed, the hand should be held aloft in vertical position, and in few minutes the swelling will be percept- ibly diminished. The braid is then taken off and immediately reapplied in the same manner, when, after another five minutes the finger, if again rapidly uncovered, will be small enough for the ring to be removed with ease.-Longosa, Gag. des Hop.

John Roach, the ship-builder, is credit ed with saying that there is something be- yond calculation in the speed of steam boats. Two boats may be built simultane- ously from the same model, with every eff fort to make them precise duplicates as to shape and machinery, and yet one will prove faster than the other. Why this is no man can tell. The Mary Powell has for 15 years been the swiftest boat on the Hudson river. During all that time she never has been beaten. Time and again an exact counterpart has been built, with everything copied as nearly as the best me- chanics and facilities could do it, but none of these has turned out as good as the or iginal. Experience has been the same with yachtsmen. They order copies of the swiftest craft, or combine the supposed good points of several, and nine times out of ten gre disappointed in the result.
