CoRsICANA, May 10. = Early this
morning news was brought to police
headquarters that a dead man was
lying on the outside of the city, near
the colored school building. The body
proved to be that of young man
named Martin Mulgrove, and the
facts, as elected by the coroner's jury
inquest, were that the deceased came
to his death by blows on the head by
a cudgel OF blunt instrument in
the hands of an unknown party,
after which he was dragged distance
of about seYenty-five yards, to the
bed of the creek, where he was dis
covered this morning. No clue to the
murderer OF motive for the act has
been discovered, as his money was
still" in his pocket, although his
pocket had been opened and the
papers it contained scattered about
the spot. He was an inoffensive per-
son, but somewhat given to drink.
1t is thought he was somewhat under
the influence of it last night.

line; but when the negroes live remote
from the landlord aud seldom see him,
and when they wander about and
work awhile at one place and awhile
at another and only mix with their
own color they soon find their way
into the chain gang. They
show the same indifference to the
consequences of crime as they do
to the waste of their wages, for | have
seen scores of them tried in the courts
and heard sentence pronounced upon
them, but have never seen them ex-
hlbit any emotion or regret, and they
will go off to the chain gang with n
greasy deck OF cards in their pocket
and play together on the seat of the
car with the manacles on their wrists.

as "a race, not as individuals, for there
are exceptions In every locality, and il
IL not uncommon for Us to say: He
! Is good negro" There are also some
| thrifty negroes who accumulate
money aud property, but they no
more mark the race than the miser
marks the Anglo-Saxon. Our best
philanthroplsts have sought to reform
them by educating them, but the
NePNilii'Cht iiNS ploNSu llll tue more
education the more Incidence and in
science, and the more ready to indulge
In all the vices of the white race and
TO disregard their virtues The best
educated negroes are always politi.
clans, not laborers nor mechanics. and
they make a precarious living by play
ing between the parties mt elections
and buying and selling the colored
vote. Now what is 20 become of the

The Question of the Disappearance of
Knives and Pins Discussed.

a solemn problem is presented by
the inquiry, What becomes of pins?
The disappearance of cans which have
contained fruit, baked beans, and other
ailuring articles of diet, is another un-
solved enigma, No one Is wise enough
to trace the whereabouts of the mass
of horseshoes which are always com

all be found.
But with the lost chords of music
and the lost arts must he reekoned the
immense body of disappearing eontri-
vances for cutting and slashinp. famil-
