Captain Larew's Debt-Settler.


We have heretofore outlined 10 our read
ers plan for settling the State debt pro-
posed recently by Captain |. II. LAREw, Oh
Pulaski county. In presenting that plan 10
our readers, We commented upon 1t, ana ex'
pressed our apprehension that 1t could not
he successfully carried out. Our ar''c'e
has elected from Cap;nn LAREw an inte-
resting and wel-wri;tcl letter, which we
publish this morning. We regret that nc
hss not met an The objections we suS-
gestcd. We invite him 10 let u ana tue
uublic know. first, how persons pur
chasing COUPONS would or could be
prevented from paying them into the
stale Treasury at their face value'
and, II be replies that the members OF
the proposed association would he pledged
moi TO do so, then, secondly, whether per-
sons not members would not consider them
selves absolyed from the obligation to pay
their taxes IN money. and so enter The cOu'
ron market in competition with the mem
bers aforesaid : II seems TO us that the re-
suit might be such an advance IN the price
OF coupons as would render futile the
efforts of the patriotic gentlemen who
would have associated themselves together
for the purpose Of relieving the Common
wealth OF an incubus.
Weask Captain LAREw to explain also 10
the public why il would not be better Tor
The state to pass law authorizing the Au-
diior 10 purchase an the coupons maturing
annually at one third, or two fiitllS, or even
one half II their face value? II would re-
quirc NJ the highest price named only a0)ul
$500, GOO year to redeem a. many coupons
a. mature annually; and as these coupons
would, under state law, be charged up
against the principal, and their cost thus
saved to TIE Commonwealth, there would
be no los, in the end, and the state govern
mcnt could be supported upon the present

The Dow Law.

,Iudgc.made law is the order OF the day
in Ohio. The telegraph stated yesterday
that The supreme Court Of that state had
pronounced the Dow liquor-law constr
tutonal. in the face OF the provision IN the
state Constitution which declares that no
license to sell intoxicating liquors shall be
granted 10 Ohio. II is astonishing how
interruptions partisan judges become
They seem 10 have no cOnscicnces. The
law thus pronounced constitutional pro-
vide, for what Is exactly equivalent to IL
censc, a. we understand the matter.

FROM ATASCOSA.
Good Inducements Offered to Cotton
Ginners-Splendid Crops

Editor San Antonio Light.
DrTTo, Atascosa Co., April IL, 1856
According to promise, 1 shall attempt
to give the readers Of your valuable
paper few items from this, the
farmers elysium Of South western Texas.
A few years ago this was the home of
the cowboy, but the sturdy farmers
have driven him farther west, and now
beautiful farms are to be seen in all d.
rections. The country is rapidly set
thing up with good, industrious citizens
from other less-favored sections, and the
way the people are charging their
farms and building new houses are sure
indications Of general prosperity.
Crops are splendid; the cold spell did
no material injury to vegetation and in
a few days we expect to enjoy all the
luxuries Of the garden. Corn is plowed
the first time, and is growing nicely; in
fact, the prospect for a good crop is all
that could be desired by the NEST exact
ing. Grass is good and all kinds Of
stock passed through the past winter In
good condition. Owners of cattle are
holding one and two year olds at 50 and
$l2. Cows and calves are selling at $40.
Land that is susceptible Of producing
Q bale OF cotton to the acre is selling
from S. to $40 per acre. Mr.. w. Z.
Mangum sold to the Messrs. Hurleys 80
acres for $500.
Mr.. c. c. Hurley is erecting a large
building for the purpose of engaging In
merchandising. He proposes to give
land to anyone that will put up q gin
and grist mill, both Of which are very
much needed, and would prove paving
investment. as there are only two gins
In an area Of country capable Of produc-
ing 20c0 bales Of cotton. Judge Lang
ston, Of Rossville, also offers q building
site, with permanent water, for the same
purI ose; SO here are two chances for
seme enterprising man to make profit
able investment
Politics seem to be engrossing the
minds Of some of our wide-awake citi-
zens. There are full corps of candi-
dates In the field, from Judge to constable,
to defeat the present incumbents, which
will be difficult to do In toto. There are
quite a number Of others. who are per-
fsctly willing to sacrifice themselves
upon the pubic altar. pro bono publico.
i assert, without fear OF successful con-
tradictions, that Rsssville can furnish
the best material for the Legislature of
any place in the counties embraced In
this legislative district; that is Judge
Lsnkston, who is ne sspirant for office,
but Is an enterPrising farmer. a genial
and well informed gentleman and pos
sesses host OF friends. OCCIDENTAL.

" Michael Strogoff.

" Michael Sifogoff" was presented to
a large audience at Tuner hall last night
by the Charles L.. Andrews company.
This powerful drama, as is wei known,
is essentially spectacr'sr, end consider
ing the difficulties rnder which the stage
management labored, owing to the con-
fined space, 1t was placed on the boards
Of Turner han remarkably well. The
caste Of the drama is well sustained
throughout, Michael Strogoff," the
courier Of the Car being powerfully
played by joseph Stay cor. MARIA Stro-
GET" by Cecil Rush, is veIy fine per-
Torrance. Miss Manice as "Sangara" is
good. Flotlne Arnold imbues strong
dramatic force into the pa-t of Nadia
Fedor." Considerable amusement was
afforded by Messrs. Ed Hassan and ]. NJ.
Humphreys, who took the ps-ts Of two
newspaper correspondents.
One OF the finest stage stI dggles seen
is that between Ivan Ogareff and
Michael Strogoff, and so realistic was il
the audience rose to their feet, auxieusly
waiting the ultimate result of it. The
ba cts were fair, the most unique being
the Mikado ballet. Nile. Cprlotta Bri-
ANA. the charming premiere dansuese,
is wondrously kfacefdl, and although
vely young, Is past-mistress of the
poetry of motion. Mile. Eugene Capel-
lini is $50 very pleasing dancer. There
is matinee being gwen this afternc On
to large audience, and the visit Of the
company will conclude with the even
ing's performance.

THAT RAPE CASE.
Both Sinners in Jail-No Bail-Railway
Shops to be Moved

Special 10 the San Antonio Light.
JEFFERSON, Texas, April l3.-Fritz
Dielman and his son, Gus, who were
previously reported as having been ar
rested last Saturday, charged with rape,
were brought before Justice Spencer for
examination this morning. The alleged
victim Of the outrage, Ssllie Owens, ap-
peared. She adheres to her first state
ment, that the youth, Gus, has been in
the habit of outraging her for the last
three years, and that the elder accused
has committed the same crime twice
previous TO the occasion of his being de-
tected in the act last Saturday. An i'm
mense and excited crowd was at the
courthouse to witness the trial. The
accused employed two Of our ablest at
tOrneys, who waived examination, and
the prisoners we're committed to jail
without bail to await the meeting Of the
grand jury In May. Dielman and fam
lily hay been living in this vicinity for
80 years and have maintained a good
character. This fact prevents the peo-
pie from taking the law In their own
