We hear it stated that parties from Albuquerque are thinking ofputting up sampling works somewhere on the line of the Atlantic & Pacific railroad in the Wallapai Valley, probably at a point opposite Stock ton. If the smelter in Albuquerque can handle our ores there is no reason why they should not get the most of them as they certainly have the advantage in the matter of freight.

Texas One and Indivisible.

The following letter was writer
in July last by Senator Maxcy b
Moses Austin Bryan, and will be rea'
with interest:
I beg to acknowledge my indebt

The obligations of the people of Tex
as to tho founders of the Republic o.
Texas arc beyond the power of reali
cation.
The events which legitimately
spring and have sprung from then
achievements, accomplished and to
be accomplished are incalculable.
l. An independent republic.
2. It's voluntary, peaceable ancxa-
ton to the sisterhood of the Ameri-
can Union.
3. The war with Mexico.
4. The settlement for all time to
come, of tho boundary of the State
us claimed by the Republic.
5. The treaty of Guadalupe Hi
dalgo, with it's vast acquisitions of
territory of untold wealth.
6. The happy influence of the de-
velopment of the mines of precious
metaIs in the territory on the COM
mcrce and business of the world.
T. Tho influence of the grain,
meat producing and wool-bearing
capacity of this vast acquisition on
the comfort of the world.
.. The binding of the two oceans
byrail through this country, and it's
favorable effect on the great trade of
China and the East Iudies.
8. The securing under govern
ment of law based on civil and religious
liberty, home for untold millions.
These, and others which might be
named, are the fruits of the tree of
Independence, planted by the found
ers of the republic and enriched by
their blood.
As one of the survivors of the
Mexican war I feel an especial love
for, and pride in, the Texas veterans:
When I say that with the beginning OF

you will not set it down to the vagaries

From q. T. Fillmore, county judge:

FROM ONE OF AUsTIN's LEADING PHYSICIANS.
Dr. Tobn:
Dear Sir:-You will remember that some
time ago I remarked to you that i suffered
from an uneasy, painful feeling in my right
side, caused by congested condition OF the
liver, which prevented me from riding on
horseback and engaging in violent exercise
of any kind. You then told me that you
had suffered from similar affection of the
liver and had cured yourself by using GER
tain medicinal herbs which you had discov-
cred, and urged me to try them. 1 did 80
and am now well. These medicinal herbs
in conjunction with salines you have since
presented to the public under the name Of
'Tobins Hepatozone." In doing SO you
have conferred great boon on people liv-
ing in hot, semi-tropical climate like ours,
where diseases of the liver are 30 prevalent.
1t is the daily experience of every physician
to find people running their constitutions by
the excessive use of strong mercurial purga-
tives. A still larger number constantly use
so-called oliver regulators" mostly COM
posed of aloes and other drastic purgatives,
which only tend to produce piles and other
troublesome affections of the lower bowels.
To all such sufferers your medicine will be
an invaluable aid in restoring them to health
again, and I feel assured that it only re-
quires to be known to be appreciated, and
that people will cease destroying their con-
stitutions by the reckless and dangerous
abuse of mercurials now in vogue. Hepa-
tozone contains no hurtful drug and yet it
is signally efficient as liver medicine. 1
may remark Just here that 1 am not violat-
ing medical ethics in truthfully giving you
nv opinion of q medicine which / have
used myself with benefit, the formula OF
which you did not hesitate to show to me-
Above all. it affords me great pleasure to
know that you have placed your medicine
composed only of costly drugs) within the
reach of the poorest man or woman.

A Mexican named Brigido Guerrero,

Alejo in this way. Mrs. Hannig,
some time ago, visited this city and
went to the old Alamo, which she had
not seen for a number of years, and
the visit affected her very much. She
