A party who claims to know, says that the so-calIed Texas fever among cattle is caused from the fact that cat tie do not get enough good water, scarcely auy salt and are allowed to eat too much dry and parched vegeta- tion.

 Constable Potts is holy terror to evil doers, and when once this Vidocq of the swamps gets on the trail of a criminal he may as well give in. Last Friday he went out on the Little Rock road to intercept two beer thieves. y and while at Brinkley came across Isom Powell, wanted in Forrest City for theft. He took him in. and while on his way to the city on the freight train he noticed the gentlemen he was looking for, walking leisurly along the road. To turn his prisoner over to the conductor and jump from the train took but a moment, and the two thieves found themselves looking down the barrel of an ugly revolver. The train stopped and took them up. and Potts landed his three birds ill jail in short order.
