Once . Tough Texas Town.

Just outside of the town of Tascosa, in the panhandle of Texas, is bare and desolate mound known as Boot Hill" A correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune, who had visited the spot, writes that there are twenty three nameless graves in the clay and gravel of Boot Hill where lie the re- mains of twcnty-three men who died with their boots on." To have died in this manner was considered in Tascosa in its palmy days the most glorious er' oi human existence possible. and as giving one. in tH- larGu9g. VI the COW boys. ..daad .iu1a' on immortality. Taseosa is Spanish and means low boggy, sandy, and the town was rightly named Once it boasted of a permanent population of three hundred souls, but the Fort Worth X Denver railroad ran through it and Tascosa is now as dead as the twenty-,hree heroes who sleep beneath the sand and cacti of Boot

Turtle Catches a Hawk.

A gentleman who lives in Georgia up the Oostanaula river told of a peculiar occurrence up in his vicinity the other day. He was fishing in the river when he saw a great red-tailed hawk fly down and light by the edge of the stream. It was a sandbar and the hawk waded out a few feet in the shallow water. He then observed the hawk engaged in a fearful struggle as if held by some thing, and with great effort the bird rose and flew out in the field, carrying with it a large water turtle which it had attacked, but which. instead of be ing caught, had clutchcd one of the hawks feet in its powerful mouth and held on. Out in the field the hawk tried in vain to get away from the tur- tie, but could not. When it became too fatigued to fly the man went out and killed both with a hickory club.

Why Does Not Gen. AIxer Publish His
Rccord2

We print with great pleasure communi-
cation from Mr.. WILLIAM r. MATTIsoN OF
this town. formerly Major Of the Second
New York Cavalry. Major MATTIsoN dwells
upon the earlier military career OF Gen.
AL0xR, and Is inclined to regard THE SUN
- harsh and unjust in its statement Of the
circumstances attending the retirement of
that oflcer from the army OF the Union on
Sept. 20. 1854.
Major MATT1soN's friendship for Gen.
AI10Kn has led him to misunderstood the
enact point at Issue. The question is ono
q fact. not Of opinion concerning the value
q Gen. AIGER's military services or his
conduct up to the time OF his absence with
cut leave. tho recommendation Of his dis
honorable discharge from the army. and
his hasty resignation ut Washington while
that Recommendation for dishonorable dis
charge was pending.
TIE Sun has made certain distinct state.
ments about Gen. ALaER's record. and
Gen. AL1ER's friends are declaring on every
oide that those statements cannot be true.
Tho record itself. showing whether The
Suns statements are true or false. is in the
possession OF Gen. ALGER. We have advised
him to publish 1t to the world. He has not
yet seen fit to follow our advice. II there
has been any Misrepresentation OF the
record. the simple and natural course for
. gentleman In Gen. ALGER's position TO
follow is to publish 1t at once.
Perhaps Major MArr1soN can persuade
Gen. RUSSELL A. ALoER to print it now.

Looking for Cincinnatus.

The California delegation to the remark
able confederation OF reforming talent as
sembled at st. Louis under the name OF the
Confederated Industrial Conference. passed
the following resolution by way OF restrain
ing the boom OF an eminent Californian cur
rency reformer:
"WAusus There certain parties In the city Of St.
Louis booming LELAND STANFORD tho Presidency of
The United States; aud
"WAersas The delegation from the State Of California
Bspresentng the Farmers Alliance. the Citizens ALI
SAGA Knights of Labor. Reform Press Association and
she Peoples party. smphatcay declare the people
Of California are not looking for CESAR CROMWELL
railroad monoroliss. . millionaire but rather for
CucIHHAIus; and whom he IL found We will know him
b the character no bears and the work he has
A. Mr.. STANFORD is the advocate of land
loan for the benefit Of the downtrodden
farmers. 1t Is hard to see why he should be
hswed out from the honors of the Confed-
crate Industrial League simply because he
happens to be as rich as the downtrodden
farmers hope to be when the Sub.Treasury
bill Is passed and the land loans are made
and JERRY SIMPSONS bank Is ready for bus
iness. But perhaps Mr.. STANFoRD's stable
ts too rich and rare for a CINc1NNATus.
Since. however. the Confederated Indus
trial Reformers are looking for CINCINNA-
xUs. and are sure that they will know him
when they find him. We respectfully call
their attention to the Hon. JEREMIAH Rus
GUS Of Wisconsin. He bears good char
scter. can ride horse to hay wagon. can
NOW. can tell what the weather has been for
the past week. and talk politics by the day.
His greatest fault Is in wearing silk hat
CNCINNATUs never wore silk hat even In
Rome. But the Confederated Conferrers
should overlook q trile like that. II they
will notify Mr.. RUsK. they will be able to find
him speeding the plough with one hand and
holding specimens from the Seed Division in
the other. 1t is true that C1Nc1NNATus
Rusous might object to their platform. but
CMcNNATus must be his own platform.
Tho Confederates must trust in him. make
him dictator. and let him do us he likes.
They are In favor Of 80 many and so varied
reforms that RUsCUs must sympathize
with some Of them.
