RANGER TERRY'S FATE.
How the Famous Texan Feii nj 'he Head 81
His Column.


A correspondent Of the st. Louis
Globe Democrat at Galveston, Tex.
bad occasion recently to visit the Office
of Major NJ. II. Royston, clerk OF the
Criminal District Court, who served
throughout the late war as an officer OF
the celebrated cavalry command known
as Z" Terry's Texas Rangers, and the
conversation drifted into "reminiscences
Of those troublous times and the death
of Terry.
Colonel Terry" said Major Roys-
ton, "was at the breaking out Of the
war engaged in planting on a large scale
in Fort Bend county. lie participated
in the first battle of Bull Run as a vol
unteer without rank, and afterward re-
ceived authority to raise a regiment of
rangers for service in Virginia, but the
command was diverted to Kentucky.
and the regiment was organized With
the nucleus Of Albert Sidney Johnston'S
army. at Bowling Green, KY. in 1862.
by the election Of b. F. Terry as colo
mel Thomas Lubbock. lieutenant-colo-
mel and James Harrison as major;
Lieutenant NJ. II. RoystO being ap-
pointed adjutant.
The pickets Of our army were adj
vanced TO Green river, some thirty miles
distant. with the Rangers in advance.
General Buell., with an army then eSti-
mated by rs to number $1,000 men, oc-
cupied the opposite heights at Wood
sonyille, Ky, where the Louisville and
Nashville railroad bridge was located.
General Johnston ordered the destruc-
ton Of this bridge, and for this purpose
llindman's infantry brigade were put
forward, supported by the Rangers.
When our force appeared in Buell'S
front his pickets were disc oyered to be
on this side of the river, which was
spanned by pontoOn bridge. As soon
as the enemy discovered our presence
be commenced to throw troops across.
The Rangers were halted in the edge Of
a wood, slightly under the crest of a
hill, and when the Federal infantry
commenced advancing across the open
fields and were within few hundred
yards of US Colonel Terry ordered
charge.
Tho Federals Immediately formed a
front line of forces to resist cavalry,
but it was broken by the Rangers, who
rode down the men, pistol in hand and
it was here that Terry fell at the head
Of his command, with revolver in hand.
The first yolley fired by the enemy
killed his horse, and a rihe-ball struck
him under the chin and passed out at
the back of the skull, killing him in
stantly. We pushed the enemy across
the fields to the river, when we were
compelled to fall back under a heavy
artillery fire.
AS we retreated the dead body Of
our colonel was carried off the field
and taken to the Cave City Hotel, near
the Mammoth Cave, and from thence
was sent to Texas and buried in the
cemetery at Houston. Colonel Terry

1 Story that Beats the >ca- Serpcnt rales.

\ Story that Beats the >ca-Serpent Tale-.
New orleans Picayune.l
1t has already been published that
the schooner Alice Montgomery, which
arrived at this port on Friday, passed
through an extensive tract Of floating
fish, dead and dying, in the Gulf Of
Mexico. The supposition that these
fishes were destroyed by some
sudden visitation Of an epidemic
disease is scarcely reasonable, Such
a disease might attack fishes of
some particular sort, which are ac-
customed to 20 in shoals, such as
behring's, Gods, or shad. and which, by
their gregarious habits, might be able
TO communicate and spread very fatal
disorder among themselves but when
fishes Of various species, which no not
associate, some living near the surface
and others in the depths, are Simulta-
neously affected. the cause must be
looked for elsewhere, and in this case
it appears to have been suddenly very
potent in a particular locality.
OF a variety Of theories the most
plausible appears TO be that which
attributes the destruction of the
fishes to The breaking out be-
meath the sea Of volcanic matter
and poisonous gases destructive to the
lives Of marine animals exposed to them.
Submarine volcanoes are by no means
unknown. The fact Of their existence
has often been attested in disturbances
of the ocean bottom, cases Of the sink
ing Of coasts and islands into the sea,
OF Of their elevation out Of 1t, being on
record.
The opening Of riffs in submarine
rocks. through which poison, sulphur
Gus, or arsenlureted yapOrs are driven
into the waters above, would be entire
~ in accord with the rules Of volcanic
action. 4 submarine volcano has been
thus painted by the vivid Imagination
Of Jules Verne in his wild and ingenious
fantasy of Twenty Thousand Leagues
Under the Sea =" A large crater
was vomiting forth torrents Of lava,
which fell in cascades of fire
into the bosom Of the super
incumbent sea. The submarine era
ter threw up lava but no flames.
Flames require the oxygen Of the
air to feed upon, and cannot be de-
yeloped under water, but great streams
Of lava, having in themselves the prin-
ciples Of their incandescence. can at
tain luminous heat, and, acting upon
water, turn it to yapOr and consume its
oxygen. Rapid currents bearing sui
phurous gases in diffusion rose from
the fiery gulf, while masses Of lava
poured down the slope Of the sea-
covered mountain"
The picture seems natural enough.
Mexico and Central and South America
are studded with living volcanoes, and
their lands and seas often thrill and
tremble with titantic throes Of subter-
ranean and submarine disturbances. \
volcanic eruption beneath the waves,
destroying the jewellers in ocean caves
and currents, is quite as much IN ac-
cordance with the laws Of nature as was
the catastrophe at Herculaneum and
Pompeii, when, some 1880 years ago,
they were overwhelmed and engulfed
in a fiery food from Mount Vesuyius.
We ought to expect such suboceanic
volcanoes, even if there were no evil
dcnces of them, and they are entirely
sufficient to account for any number Of
dead fishes and jewellers in the sea.

lQusrterly Review

Quarterly Review
Psellos describes the two Expresses,
Zoe and Theodore, as seated on their
throne covered with ornaments, with
the narthex or wand Of Office in their
hands. This narthex was a reed fer
ula). which is common enough in the
last the reed, in fact, in which Pro-
metheus, as the legend ran, brought
fire down from Heaven, was the narthex.
# is still used for the purpose of carry
ing fire in remote parts. When the
day is win0y woman Will light
taper, put it in a reed, and carry 1t
home if she is without a light for her
fire. and in the island Of Lesbos this
reed ID still called nartheka. On either
side Of the Expresses stood officials
armed with rods and swords, and SOL
diers who held heavy axes on their
right shoulder Around this body
guard there was a second circle Of war
riors, and one and all Of them had
their eyes cast on the ground out
Of respect for the sex of their SoYer-
elens. 1t seems wonderful to US that in
a country where female retirement was
30 much insisted on the throne should
be given up to two old women, but the
right Of women to succeed was Ro-
man custom. and when imported to
Greek soil it gave rise to curious anoma-
lies. Until they ascendel the throne.
at the sge Of forty-dye, Zoe and her
sister had been kept in the greatest Sc
clusion and ignorance. No wonder that
thew disgraced themselves in after life.
The Empress Zoe" says PSellos,
twas quick and passionate. With per-
feet indifference she would give
her yerdicts on life and death.
She was of moderate height she
had grand eyes and heavy, for
midable eyebrows, a slightly aqui-
line nose, and a head Of fair hair,
and body Of astonishing whteneSs. "
How Psellos managed to see so much
in court where the eyes were always
to be ayerted from the soyereigns he
does not tell us. Zoe seems to have
borne her years remarkably well, and
to have been an imposing woman. We
have no description Of Theodore, but
from what we gather she seems to have
been weak, incapable woman. who
only assisted her sister in that lavish
expenditure which laid the seeds OF
that ruin and decay which was fast
gathering around the Byzantine Court.

lIaN-Nall Gazette
The Dean of Westminster sends tC
the Times a word in season, in the
shape of an epigram by his predecessor
on " the great Christian philanthropist ''
just lost to US. The following note
from Lord Shaftesbury himself is APP
pended to it:
had written to Canon Conway to
say that he had better find some new
and younger chairman for the annual
flower show in Deans yard, adding
that ! vas in the condition Of tree
which, as Lucan says, casts a sha-
dow no longer by its leaves, but only
by its stem" lie sent the note to the
Dean, who returned it with the verses
above. / knew that the Dean was very
kindly disposed towards me, but did
not know how kindly.
These are the verses:
"Irunco. non frondibus, efIicit umbram.
Well said old Lucan often have Iseen
A stripping tree all foliage and all green;
But not hope Of grateful, soothing shade,
lis empty strength In fiuttering leaves dis
played.

That rears It's scant but glorious diadem;
That through long years OF battle or OF
Has striven whole forests round Tito re-

That plants its roots too deep for man to

Such gallant tree for me shall ever stand

There is a double psthos in a dead
great mans panegyric of dead great
man. Dean SANKEY'S verses are ex-
quisite in workmanship, though a too
fastidious criticism might take excep-
tion to the fourth couplet as less happy
both in idea and expression than the
rest, and as oyerburdening an epigram
which, without it, would form a round
ed whole. In sentiment nothing could
be more exquisitely just. All sects
and creeds, religious and anti-religious,
will be able with a whole heart to
echo the eulogy. There is no need that
one should hold Lord Shahesbury's,
or even Dean SANKEY'S, convictions in
order to appreciate the eternal beauty
of the image, so adroitly utilized by the
poet, of "the shadow Of a great rock
in a weary land" and that in the dia-
lect he himself loved is the aptest posi-
bic description of what Lord Skates
bury was to thousands Of his fellow
cOuntrYmen.

TIE TOWERS OFLAFITTE.
f.esl Faces About t1r noted Pirates LifD Ca
she DaI Of Dclorfs.
Two Rcpubilrs


- On the tenth day after leaving Pro-
eleso, about g O'Clock at night, writes
Alice d. lie Plougeon from Yucatan,
"we sailed into the beautiful Bay Of
Dolores at Mugeres Island, or Woman's
Island, 3, the Spanish conquer0rs called
It, because they found in the temples Of
the natives many images Of women.
The first golden sunTay that shot
from the coast called every creature to
life and action. Doors were thrown
open, faint columns Of smoke wrea,hed
their way to the clouded sky, fishermen
launched their boats, women passed to
and fro, and leathered songsters warblcd
their sweetest lay. No wonder that the
last pirate chief, Captain LATTE, made
this island his headquarters.
Some old people there well remem-
Ter him as nice gentleman who paid
for everything he had from the fisher
men along til: coast, and never harmed
any poor person. 1t vas al the begin
ming Of Ne present century that LATTE
became terror to the ships that nayi-
gated the Gulf Of Mexico and the Ca
ribbean sea, among the West India
islands down to the coast Of Venezuela.
In the beautiful harbor Of Mugeres
island he found perfect shelter from the
storms that at certain times Of the year
sweep with violence along those coasts,
and on the top Of some domes south Of
what is now the village Of Dolores he
built small towers, whence he could
keep an eye on the surrounding waters.
The foundations Of these towers yet
remain in place, and every Christmas
eve the ghost of sailor wanders about
these hills No one dares speak to
him, believing that it would cause them
to die within one year. When not on
board Laftte's men lived in huts on the
very spot where the village now IS.
Lafitte is described as having been very
naughty with his men, Furnishing
the least fault Of discipline, and
never allowing them to approach
him without first asking permits
sion; but he was kind to the poor peo-
pie on the coast. Once, when the Al
calde Of a village refused to sell him
meat for his men, he caused them to
seize bull and put it on his ship, but
when told by the fishermen that that
bull had been brought for their amuse-
ment in festival, be had it at once re-
stored TO them, stating that he would
be sorry to deprive them of the little
pleasure they had in their life Of toll
and hardship.
.. After the bull-fght plenty Of meat
was sent to him as a present, but he in
sisted on paying for it, saying that he
would take nothing from the poor.
The tragic fate Of this pirate king is
told and retold by those who recollect
the event. just at time when ONE
Of Lafitte's ships were away from
the place of rendezvous a strong
force was sent against him.
He encountered it near Con-
toy and fought brayely, but his ship
struck q rock and sunk. He took to
the boats with eight or ten men, and
succeeded in landing on a sandbank
called Blanquilla, but was pursued and
surrounded. One by one all his men
fell, still be refused to surrender, and
was killed there, defending himself as
long as there was breath in his body"
