newspaper published in the County of Bexar
for four successive weeks previous to the re-
turn day hereof, you summon the said A.
Dordoni TO be and appear before me at my
Office in the Citybt San Antonio, Bexar Coun-
ty, Texas. ON the second Monday In March, IL
being the 10th day of March, A. ID. 1884, at 10
O'Clock a. M, then and there to answer the
complaint OF John Bosshardt I'm an action of

posing secession in 1861. With strange
Inconsistency, the directors to John
Hancock, because of his Unionism, sup
ported Mr.. Carlisle for Speaker with
vooiferoiis zeal, although he was dyed
in-the-wool Unionist throughout the war
and was able to take the iron-clad oath.
When the Bourbons attempt to rule out
John Hancock solely on account Of his
opposition to secession nearly a quarter
Of century ago, they will find the
people espousing the side of Hancock.
Noman has dealt the Republicans harder
blows than Hancock has done, but he
has hit them in front-not stabbed them
in the back. The Jackson Intelllgencer
sails into Hancock in this fashion: "But
there is one fact that stands out promi-
nently in the memory Of Texans, and
which Is probably the main spring to
this bond of sympathy between this
great statesman and leading journal, to-
wit The News was never worse rem
egade to Texas than was John Hancock,
In the estimation of those familiar with
his war record"

The interests or humanity seem to demand
the publication of the following facts: Two
months ago my attention was called TO the
case of poor woman who was said to be
afflicted with cancer. found her with an
ulcer on her shoulder at lest Ave inches In cir
conference, angry, painful, and giving the
patient no rest day or night for six months,
obtained a supply of Swift's Specific, which
persuaded her to try. She has taken five bot
ties, the result of which Is that the ulcer is en-
tirely healed up, nothing remaining but a
small scab, not larger than ones finger nsil,
and her general health is better than for five
years past She seems to be perfectly cured.

this point.

NOTHING is more clearly settled than
the fact that neither men nor women
ever rise above the rank in life with
which they begin the race, unless they
make an effort to do so. Nor will anv
such effort be made unless they feel an
ambition to rise in the world and to bet
ter their social and pecuniary condition.
Moralists frequently decoy and condemn
ambition merely because inordinate am
bition has inflicted great calamities upon
mankind, but they lose sight of the fact
that ambition is the source Of industry.
economy, study and improvement, and
that but for ambition there would be an
universal stagnation. What inspires
ones condition? What prompts to
economy The desire of getting on in
the world Of accommodating property. In
order that they may rise in the world
persons must first desire to do 30 and
then use the means to accomplish the
end. They must master all the details
OF the business in which they are en-
gagged and strive TO excel in it and make
unceasing efforts to reach higher posi-
ton by habits Of industry, application
and sobriety. The old adage ''that what
is worth doing is worth doing well,n il
literally true, and should stimulate
young men to do things thoroughly and
carefully.
The San Antonio light. (San Antonio, Tex.) 1883-1886, 1884-02-18

ALTHOUGH the LIGHT does not belong
to the Texas Democracy, 1t feels author
lied to say the State Democratic con-
vention would find ample hotel accom-
modations and hearty welcome in San
Antonio, and that Southwest Texas is
entitled to this honor. As an additional
inducement the LIGHT promises to re-
port the proceedings, with fidelity and
spiciness, in its own peculiarly piqusnt
vein.

The Supreme court of the United
States, the highest legal tribunal in the
Union, pronounced the Civil Rights bill
TO be unconstitutional, and, therefore,
null and void, and that put an end to the
bill and all rights intended to be secured
by it. But Mr.. Richard Nelson, colored
editor OF the Galveston Spectator, re-
sently insisted upon riding in the rail-
way coach for white passengers, on a
Texas road, refused to ride in the smok-
ing car, and caused himself to be put off
the train. We are unable to see what he
expected to accomplish by this course,
now that the Civil Rights law is stone
dead. In fact, so long as the whites
object to negroes riding in the same
coach with them, it has always struck
us that the proper self respect should in
duce the negroes to avoid even the
appearance Of obtruding where they
were not welcome, especially as riding
in coach with white people is Of no
practical value to them. The railroads
should provide good coach for negroes
exclusively, and not pack them into
smoking cars, among roughs and desper-
ADDE'S. Governor Ireland was right on
this point.

The harmonious Democracy is full of
latent disoords and antagonisms. which
can hardly be kept from breaking out in
to a blaze. Fully one-half OF the Demo-
Gratis In Texas were opposed to secession
and considered the preservation of the
Union as the paramount political good.
AT least one-third Of the Democratic
voters were Wings and warm admirers
OF Henry Clay, who was the champion of
protective tariff and the uncompromis-
ing enemy Of the Calhoun school of poli-
ticians. The Secessionist s really have
no use for any man who opposed seoes-
sion, although all the world now sees
that 1t originated In emotional political
insanity. John Hancock led most of the
Union men into the Democratic party
after the close of the war, and but for him
II would probably be in minority to-
day, but even this great service has been
powerless to mollify the smouIdering
luminosity OF the Seoessionists towards

-Tavares Herald: The work on the
extension from Leesburg to this place
rapidly approaches completion. Last
Friday the right of way force completed
its labors, and Mr.. Camp the engineer in
charge of the work reports that with the
force he now has on the line the grading
will be complete by June 10th. He Is
however looking for large additional
force tomorrow friday and, If this ar
rives, the grading will be over before the
first of the month. The cribbing will all
be complete by Saturday evening, leaving
nothing but the distribution of the cross
ties and laying of the iron, excepting the
construction of the trestles, which pro-
crosses steadily. Track-laying would
have begun before this if the crossing y
for the track where it crosses the Florida
Southern Railroad had arrived. We
learn that it left Erie, Penn, on the 28th
and will be here in few days. AS soon
as it reaches Leesburg, it will be put in
its place and the work Of laying the iron
to Tavares will begin. 1t is expected
that the track will be laid to Stivender's
wharf by the first Of the month and that
by the first of July it will be in Tavares.
During the past three weeks a large
amount of work has been done in all de-
partments All the bolts, &C., for the

finished and the driver ordered back to
