More About the Sabinss Committee and
TreyinO FL Coyote, the Terrible.
Special Telegram to the Statesman.
LAREDO, December S.-Ihe Sabinas
people are in trouble once more, con-
trary to the expectations of every one.
As was stated last week, it seems that
the committee of arbitration which
by request of Gen. Trevino, accom-
panied him to Monterey to defend
their action and make statement of
the causes which led thereto, ware en-
trapped. On the arrival of TreVino
and committee at Monterey dispatch
was received calling Trevino else
where, and during his absence the
committee were seized and put in Jail.
Trevino has many friends among the
Americans at this place, and they
stoutiy deny that he was party to
this scheme to incarcerate the
committee, if scheme it was and
maintain that the old General
undoubtedly acted in good faith with
the people of Sabinas. At last ac-
counts rumorS were prevalent that
the people of SabinaS were organizing
to march on Monterey to rescue their
committee, but it is not likely they
would attempt such serious under
taking.
1t is a source of much surprise that
Gen. Trey inc has received no portfolio
in the new cabinet of Mexico, as it
was considered certainty here, by
those who claim to be posted in Next
can politics, that he would be chosen
as secretary of the war department.
Ell coyote, the terrible, has been seen
on this side OF the river several times
lately, if Madame Rumor tells the
truth, and she claims to have seen
him with her own eyes. Such citi-
zens are not wanted in Texas, and
there should be some provision for
fotcing such scoundrels out of our
country. There are quite a nu;nber
of that ilk in this town.

THE COURTS.
DISTRICT COURT.

The case of w. A. Smith VS.. W. G.
Morgan was on trial in the district
court yesterday, in which the validity
OF q tax deed is the main question.
This involves a construction of the
VARIOUS provisions of the state con-
stitution in reference to taxation and
tax deeds. Counsel for the defendant,
w. G. Morgan, who claims under the
tax deed, construe the constitution to
mean that q tax deed is sufficient to
show title TO the land which it at
tempts to convey, without proof being
made of the regularity OF the assess
ment against the land, or the sale for
taxes.
Counsel c0r plaintiff, w. H. Smith
opposed this construction of the con.
stitution, anu claim that it does not
make any new rule of evidence, and
under this construction as under the
law before it, the regularity of the
assessment and sale must be proven
II order to render the deed of any
effect TO show title to the land. Fur
Their, that the constitution merely de.
clares the effect of the deed, when the
prerequisites to the sale, such as as
sessment, advertisement, etc, have
been proven. Plaintiffs counsel also
claim that under any construction the
deed is void for defects of proceed.
ure, which it shows on its face, occur.
red prior to the sale and execution Of
the deed.
The case is an important one or
account of the questions involved
The clauses of the constitution REFER
ed to. have net Deen construed by thu
supreme court, although several cases
involving the same questions have
been appealed to 1t. The commission
ers of appeals reported adye: sely tc
the view contender for by the defense
at the last session of the supreme
court in Austin. But their report ha;
not yet been acted upon by the su
! preme court, ana is not. therefore
binding as a precedent.

attention to a paragraph in the Gal

states that it was understood governor
Hubbard would not be an applicant
for a cabinet position, but desired
the Mexican mission. In answer to
an inquiry thegoVernor said that such
a statement was wholly without au-
thority from him; that he had friends
in this and other states who desired
Texas recognized in the cabinet of
the new administration, in his per-

plicant in the sense sought
to be conveyed in the paragraph in
question. lie certainly deferred to
the wishes OF Texas in such move

many able men in and out of congress
whose appointment to cabinet or
other positions, would be gratifying
to the people of the state, and to the
satisfaction of the whole country
He recognized with gratitude the
generous expression of preference for
him for cabinet position by so many
of his fellow-citezens, and by the
press, and was not insensible to the
fact that the position was hon.
orable, and that the appointment of
any man from Texas would
be a merited tribute to the people of
that state which gave the largest
democratic majority ia the late cleo
