Cause and Effect.

There is at present great financial
stringency prevailing in this country.
So distressful is it that the country is
standing upon the very verge of a
panic quite as grave as the one the re-
publicans preeipitated upon it in
'73 by their scheme for the demone-
tization of silver, and other malign
efforts to violently and unnaturally
contract the volume of the currency
in the interests of the bondholders.
The causes of the present uneasi-
ness are easily understood. The
reckless extravaganza of the
country. The greedy, grasp
ing of the pampered favorites of the
government. Like Oliver Twist,
their cry has always been, AMI is now,
"more, more" Over-trading, wild
speculation and reckless extravaganza
have all been fostered and encouraged
by the public policy of the republican
party, and its creature, its willing, alb
ject slave the national administration.
The legitimate fruit of all this is
panic, it is financial uneasiness, dis
tress and dismay. We see it now, but |
no palmer than it was seen four years
since or eleven years since. The
conditions are the same and
the ultimate panic just as
inevitable unless wide and sweep
ing change in the public policy is eff
fected. The alarm is widespread
and general and the severe arraign-
nent of the republican party on the
'core of It's dishonesty, its incapacity
md its corruption is having its legiti-
nate and logical effect.
The first of these perceptible, is the
Wholesale withdrawal of the most
'otent and respectable elements in ]
New England from their allegi-
nee to republicanism. The next .

SCALPED BY BUFORD.
From the Nashville World.

From the NASHVILLE World.
In the spring of 1854 or 1856 | ran
up to Lexington to attend the races at
the centre of Eden's garden, and of
course Gen. Abe and Col Tom Buford
were there with their invincible
thorough reds. Col Tom from q
sudden quarrel that grew out of the
excitement of the race caurse one
afternoon, played duet on pistols
with an adversary whose name l can
not how recall.
Gen. Abe, his brother, and were
standing about forty or fifty feet off
when the fusillade began, and remain
ed apparently unconcerned, for, though
his brother was holly engaged, the
old hero was willing, according to the
rules of Kentucky chivalry, to see a
fair fight and let the best man win.
Col. Tom struck his adversary once or
twice in several shots, not seriously
wounding him. When ali the cham

having the fear of Brother Abe before
his eyes, ran up and thrust fresh
weapon into the hands of Tom
Buford's asSailant. Gen. Abe believ-
ing too ermly in 'fair play" to
thus permit two men to combine
against one, and that one Brother
Tom at once jerked out knife of
glittering blade and made rush for
the too busy inteIloper. More quick
ly than it takes to tell it, General Abe,
with one hand, had seized the poQk
fellow by the hair, and, like flash of
| lightning, and with the dexterityiof
an Indian, made circulsr 1ncision ON
the crown of his head, and giving the
hair sudden twist, lifted off as neat
a scalp as one would undergo days
ride to see.
Now, you, said Gen. Abe, as he
coolly..tossed his indian trophy to one
side and released his victim, now go,
- you'll l guess Woods hair restora-
tive won't bring out the wool on your
head again soon" The frightened fell
low, never having experienced that
kind of warfare, gathered his head in
both hands and ran off yelling as if
Capt. Jack and all the Modocs were
close upon his heels.
/ was Mortified, it being the first
scalp had ever seen taken, and rid
ing home that evening [ asked Gen.
Buford how he could do such bar
barous thing.
"He ought to have attended to his
own business" he replied. Il Was
willing, though my brother was en-
gagged, to keep hands eff and let 'em
fight it out, and when he ran up and
handed mis- friend a pistol to kill Tom
with, would have been justified in
killing him."

The Houston Convention.

AS the time narrows between the
present and and the meeting of the
Houston convention interest in the
probable outcome deepens and
broadens rapidly. The revolt against
the Ireland combination has been
steadily broadening and deepening, in
many-nay all parts of the state, per-
ceptibly. 1t is now certain that a
large slice of the most populous por-
ton of north Texas win go into the
convention pledged to the use all fair
and honorable means to defeat Ireland
They are very determined and pro-
nounced in this purpose, ana it
win be carried out beyond a
doubt. The Waco Examiner, paper
published In enc of the most pros
porous, and larges of the cities of in
terror Texas, in a populous and in
tensely democratic district, openly
and avowedly opposes the re-nomina-
ton of Ireland, and yesterday flung
to the breeze the honored name of
Gen. L. S. Ross for governor. Those
who imagine this is mere, buncombe
and meaningless devotion to neigh
Dor, are off in their calculation. 1t is
the formulation and the voicing of a |
sentiment which is becoming too
strong for control. 1t is the senti-
mont h,,bhl;no n, the surfaea which /
demands a higher order of

Great Majorities.

Great majorities sometimes become
great evils. Especially is this the case
when they become careless of the feel
ings, intests and preferences of the
minority. Great majorities are not
great blessings, even thinly disguised.
1t is somewhat of glory to be able
to claim for Texas the greatest demo-
cratic majority in the union. We
glory in our vast territorial superiori-
ty. In our superiority as cattle pro-
ducing state, as cotton producing
state and as wool growing state.
These are palpable and tangible adj
vantages. But we doubt if we have
ever gathered many shekels because
of our vast democratic majority.
Not that there is inherent evil
in the circumstance, but that it be-
gets spirit of intolerance and impa-
thence under contradiction or question
which has the most mischievous eff
feet. We see it most plainly in the
present gubernatorial campaign. But
the fact that this vast majority ope-
rates to shut off candid criticism, the !
majority for Ireland in the Houston
convention would not have been half /
what it will be. Men who are con-
Finced OF the utter unworthiness,
weakness and inefficiency of the adj

age, a bright and accomplished girl.
To vary the monotony of her simple.
rustic life she taught music in the
surrounding neighborhood. With
the enjoyment5 of her pleasant
country home she seemed contented
until about six months ago, when the
whole course of her life underwent a
change. A young man dressed like a
laborer; but showing evidence of a
more refined nature than his external
appearance indicated, applied for and
obtained work from the heroine's
father. He was well-built, PLEASANT
looking fellow, although not hand
some, and wore bright auburn beard.
A mutual affection sprang up between
the daughter of the household and
the new hand. A sharp watch was
kept on the maiden, but nothing oc-

Two weeks ago, when matters were
brought to a crisis. In one of her usual
rounds among her pupils the girls

lover took advantage Of the oppor-
tunlty, proposed, was accepted and
the twain went to the nearest minis
ter, where they were made one. They
returned later in the evening, con-
feSsed and the newly-made wife
pleaded forgiveness. Her father be-
came very wroth at her undutiful act
and vowed that the consequences
would be on her own head. This was
the night of the great storm of June
%. The ireful father, after venting
his wrath on his daughter and her
husband, elected them, with few
articles belonging to them, from his
home and told them never to return.
The young wife, borne down with
SORROW, turned in despair to her hus-
band and the latter proved himself to

This work, that has been voluntarily
assumed by Governor Cleveland, was

the good or the public. There
are now perhaps dozen papers only in
the state of Texas which are opposing
Ireland, and the simple truth is he is
by no means the preference of any
thing like majority of the people.
But the advantages he has held and
used in the way of organization have
been and are such as to driye into his
ranks thousands of men who other
wise would have been either neutral
or actively hostile. An intelligent |
man whose convictions are tt at Ire
lands administration is faulty and
ought to be opposed hesitates to do so,
because he is often not prepared either
for political, business or social mar
tyrdom-has not a taste for the

it might induce. So, rather than go
y on the record as opposing him and
~ thereby win obliquy and probably

current easily and without jumping

rough sailing. This is the misery of
