slR;-Democratic writers have such In
different success in porcurlng space in the
Rtgi'ter that l have concluded to ignore
that journal "ior this occasion only" and
give to the public the details Of little
game that Is now being played in this
Congressional district. Briefly stated, Mr.,
Wilson's friends are giving 1t forth that
he is as good as nominated, and it Ia as.
serted that he has more than l40 delegates
already pledged, Accordingly the Federal
otice-holders have turned their attention
10 other objects, the principal scheme be-
ing so.called conCiliatory measure for
local effect. You already know by what
means.
Mr.. Martins friends were defeated In
this (Taylor) county, and now that the
effect has been seen in a reyuIsion which
ia likely 70 cause trouble In the couven,
ton, tue "bosses" have kindly consented
that Mr.. Martin can have compliment"
from Marion-proyided Mr.. Wilson does
not need the solid vote Of that county.
This Ia done, as ! am informed, In the In
terest OF candidate for the State Senate
in Marion, as well also for the benefit Of a
noted ringster OF that county, who Is on
the Camden slate for House Of Delegates.
But ! want to make this prediction: II
Mr.. Wilson does not need his vote In
Marion, Mr.. Martin will get large part
Of 1t on the first ballot. On the second
ballot, however, land here Is where the
complication ariaes) tho solid vote will be
thrown for Judged Fleming,Iin the hope OF
stampeding the Convention for a Marion
man Tor Congress, thus betraying both
Martin and Wilson.
1t 10 believed this will find q favor In
the Eastern Panhandle among aupirants
who believe In rotstion, and who will try
for the prize two or four years hence,
Judge Morrow's friends are TO be paciGed
by the tender Of Judge Flemlng's old
shoea. This game was hatched in Marion
county, as l am reliably informed, and is
now in the "hands Of its friends" This
Is not all, but II Is sufficient to show to
what extremes the Camdenites will 20 In
order to secure the Legislature. They
will betray everybody In order TO accom-.
plish this, MARTIN DEMOCRAT.

DALLAS, TExAs, August l0.-Everybody
here Is complimenting Secretary Bsysrd,
aud the war spirit prodominates. The
people see ray Of hope, now that Mexi-
can insults will be redressed. All the
newspapers compliment the Secretary OF
State, and the street talk is all for "Bay-
ard and war" Tho young men particu.
larly arc anxious to have brush with
Mexico, either under Federal authority
or by Governor Ireland's permission.
Many prominent Texans are returning
from Washington, and they have done
much to allay the III feeling that obtained
against the Washington authorities. They
all report that the Government means
business, Is moving prudently and with
out unseemly haste, but that everything
will be all right In the end. Senator
Coke went TO see Mr.. Bayard before he
left Washington, and the Secretary told
him that II there was any backing down
Mexico must do 1t.
Congressman y. Il. Mills reached home
lHhb nlRut lluu hauluktOus lAu palA .
II believe there will be-war unless Dlaz
pardons Cutting, which will smooth things
over some, but the National Government
will thon insist that indemnity be paid"
Congressman Mills says he looks for re-
convening OF Congress In thirty days un.
less Cutting Is pardoned. "You may cay"
says he, "that the policy Of this Adminis-
tration Is to protect tho humblest citizen,
whoever he may be, and President Cleve-
land and Mr.. Bayard will never recede
one iota from their position" Mr.. Mills
says in case'cf hostilities he would advise
tho FL Paso people 10 leave the city and
20 into tho interior. He also says Cleve.
land could concentrate troops at Ell Paso
before Congress meets, II necessary.
AT four o'clock yesterday evening a tele-
gram passed through Dallas from an Of.
ticial at Washington to an official at El
Paso which read as follows:
Secretary Bayard has Just made final
demand on the Mexico Government for
tho immediate surrender Of Cutting"
When tho dispatch was bulletined 1t
created the liveliest interest. Interesting
developments are looked for before night.

FL PAso, TEXAS, August l0.-This has
been q day OF intense excitement here
owing to the many rumors about the Cut
ting case, and the probability Of the two
governments going to war over the affair.
Shortly after dark last night some thirty
shots fred by the Mexican troops across
tho river, after party Of desertep,
caused the widest excitement in this
city, everyone believing that hostilities
had commenced in earnest. The arms
for the company Of minutemen, recently
organized, were distributed, and the City
Council held a secret session and adopted
measures for resisting an attack from the
Mexlcans. When the real cause Of the
firing became known, however, matters
quieted down and the excitement SUBJ
sided.
A gentleman who came up on the Mexi.
can Central last night says q telegraph
operator caught the information oR the
wire between Paso Del Norte and Chi
huahua that the officers OF PGso Del Norte
telegraphod TO the Governor Of chihuahua
that there was danger Of an attempt from
III Paso to rescue Cutting. The order came
promptly back: I'm case Of any attempt
10 rescue Cutting, cut of his head and
present 1t to the rescuers with my compli'
ments."

Ex.prosident Arthur,s Health.

NEW YoRK, August 'iO.-A gentleman
Of this city, who passed several hours last
week with ex-President Arthur at New
London, said to-day regarding the Gen.
erals conditions.
In view Of the stories about his appear.
anCs and emaciated condition, was most
happily surprised to see the General
looking so we'll. Ishould says he weighs
all OF 172 pounds; In fact, | know that Is
his weight from a friend who told me.
There Is o good, healthy appearance 10
his skin, and none Of the habblness
which has been reported.
He has certainly been gaining. His
conversation was animated, and gave no
indications that he was q sick man. He
talked Of taking a trip TO see a friend,
which would have taken four days. He
has indeed taken the trip several timeB Of
late. During the conversation General
Arthur was standing around most OF the
time, and no ono who had not heard Of
his illness would have thought oi him ss q
sick man. He certainly looks now like q
man who has many years Of life before
him
