WAS NOT SURPRISED.
Captain Henning, just from Rio Jsnerio
Gives His Opiniou.

Captain Henning, just from Rio Jsncrio.
Gives His Opinion.
New York, Nov. 25.--The steamship
Horrox, Captain Henning, arrived from
Rio de Janerio after voyage oftwenty-
three days. Captain Henning was
shown the United Press dispatches in
reference to the revolt whichis reported
to have taken place there, resulting in
the retirement of Fonseca and the as
sumption of his place by Floriano Peix-
otto, vice president of the provisional
government. Captain Henning said
that when he left Rio Janerio matters
were quiet on the surface, but there was
an undercurrent of dissatisfaction with
Fonseca which indicated his early depo-
sition. He was not surprised that the
dictator had been forced to retire as the
dispatches indicated and thought that
the opposition would have taken deci-
siye action sooner had it not been for
reports that Fonseca was fatally
illand likely to die at any moment.
Captain Henning also said that he did
not think that Peixotto could long hold
the place of head of the Brazilian gov
ernment. The people do not seem to
know what they win do exactly and
that it viii be an utter impossibility to
accurately predict what will probably
take place from day to day.
We're it not for the strong public feel
| ing against the husband of the crown
| princess he thought an effort might be
made to restore the monarchy and place
Dom Pedro's daughter in her fathers
place. Public opposition to the hus.
band, however, would render futile any
| attempt in this direction. When asked
II be thought general political dis
turbance throughout Brazil was inmi
nsnt, captain Henning replied that nj
man could tell what might happen in ,
country like that, but he thought it WA
/ very probable.

and pen how can the borrowing-money-
on-land scheme of the third partyites
and their sympathizers he anything in
the world but the grossest delusion
and the stupidest snare? What is
deemed and generally recognized as
bad policy in Texas, and SO declared in
her law, cannot be wholesome or wise
because allowed by Federal statute.
What magic power has a Federal
statute that it can so easily transmute
evil into good?
Thus appears the silly inconsistency
OF those political charlatans who adj
wise the farmers to demand money from
the government on land values. The
farmers OF Texas could not get their
share of it, and if they could they
would be only SO much the worse for

AL HAYNE FUND.

The following letter comes to THE
GAZETTE from band of workers. who
in an effort at self-improvement are
also making contribution to the fund
for the erection of q monument to q
hero. Admiration of heroism, and par.
ticularly that form OF it which involves
risk ii not death to the brave doors OF
heroic deeds, is lofty sentiment held
in common by high and low, and the
names of such men are names the
world will not let die. Upon that roll
of honor is found the name of Al Hayne,
and the sweet fragrance of self-sacri-
fee fingers about his memory. The
young people Of Corpus Christi have
set noble example in devoting the
sum obtained through their society to
so noble an end as is indicated in the
letter that accompanies the contribu-
ton, and this seed-sowing may result
in bountiful ingathering which will
be sufficient to insure the speedy cree
