The Texas Live Stock Journal takes a very sensible stand with regard to six shooters on the range. It says that in 1882 very active measures were taken to banish this death dealer from the belt of the COW boy, and that pro- prietors pledged themselves not to hire men who insisted upon carrying weapon of this kind. Much good was the result and serious affrays were less frequent. In 1883 no such steps were taken, and the old, old story had to be told over again. We, too, be- lieve that the cattle business could be made to prosper without every man being compelled to carry ammunition enough to supply small fort, but we cannot as yet recommend the entire abolition of this instrument in all sec- tions. as it becomes necessary some
 times to protect ones self in a more violent way than with the muscles of the body. But we will gladly hail the day when these weapons are no longer needed in any way--Ariz. Live Stock Jo,irf,g, 5s.-- .. ... ...

A whiting Yankee has cut, with a jack.knife, from single pine block, a large, life-like group of figures repre- senting span of horses attached to a carriage, in which are two men. It is the most wonderful piece of carving ever seen in New Haven, and is true to life. He has been at work for months on it. Even the spokes of the wheels are perfect, and the wheels re. volve on their axles freely. The har- ness is complete in every detail, and can be moved on the horses. Several months more will be required to per. feet the group in minor details. It is viewed by many people daily.-Hart. ford Post.

The new models of the carriage and popteons of the Eads Ship Railway have started for London. Nearly all the capital for the enterprise is being subscribed in that city. Chief Engi- neer Corthell says 100 men are at work and that the first half mile of track has been completed. This, with the river course, which admits three of the ships abreast, completes twf Eve and a half miles of the TeH Rntepec route. The new pontoon system of raising vessels from the water upon the railway carriage is to be sub- stituted for the hydraulic system first contemplated. It was conceived by London engineers and adopted by Eads, and will raise a ship out of water and upon the carriage in twen- ty minutes-N. Y. Sun.

 There have been some quite impcr- tant chasIes in the tone of the live stock markets at leading points with in the past week. Cattle, which few days since were booming everywhere, are in the midst of a very natural re- action, showing lower range of prices all around, with the difference on medium grades. But while the trade is just now devoid of animation, it is felt that such a state of things can only be temporary, and that reas- enable activity and some recovery in prices may be expected within a few days. The course of the hog market, on the other hand, has been upward. The gain in prices has not been great, but the feeling has been decidedly better, and general cheerfulness pre- vails. The latest advices from Chi cago, St. Louis and Kansas City indi- cates unusual activity, while the trade at intermediate points is in satisfac- tory condition. Sheep arc reported firm at New York, and quite dull and weak everywhere else. While low grade stock is of course handled with most difficulty, the depression is not confined to any particular class. Sheep are just now poor market ar ticle, without any special promise of permanent improvement in the near future.-National Stockman.

HOW TWO MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE HAPPENED TO
PRINT TIE SAME SPEECH.
Some OF the members OF Congress have been
looking through the old Congressional Globe to
find the names Of the two members who were re-
ferred to by Mr. Vest In his speech the other day,
as having printed exactly the same speech in the
records Of the House. The two men were William
Allen-better known as ''Foghorn" Allen-and R. H.
Nugen, both OF Ohio On the oath OF April, 6s, Allen
made speech on the "cOnf1Scation OF rebel prop
erty" and few days later, May 9th, Nugen, under
leave TO print, published the same speech in tho
GLOBE as his own The story OF how the thing hap
pened is thus told: Nugen wanted to make
speech. but did not know what to say. While
looking around for way out OF the Gifa.ulty he
came across newspaper man, who offered to write
speech for him II paid for It. So the speech was
written, but when 1t was delivered the Congress
man objected to paying the fifty dollars charged by
the scribe for his services, and they parted, the
newspaper man still holding the manuscript and
the Congressman disconsolate. AT the end OF a
week, however, the Congressman went to the
scribe and said that IL was extortion and he was
being taken advantage OF, but he had concluded to
pay the fifty dollars When the day came for him
to speak he rose proudly and asked leave to print
But meanwhile Mr. Allen had electrified the House
with his eloQuence, and when the two speeches
were compared they were found to be Identical
even as to punctuation. The theory was that when
he failed to get his price the rst time from Nugen
the scribe sold the speech to Allen, but had no
