TEN HERETICs BURNED ALIVE.
Cremated by Order of a Judge of Tex
capa, Mex.-Twenty-0ne Exc
%cutloners Arrested.

PACHUCA, MEX, Nov. News
comes from Texcapa, a small town in
habited by Indians and Mestizos
(half- breeds), that ten persons were
burned there as heretics by order of
the auxiliary town Judge. He claims
he was acting according to the will of
God, manifested to him in an extra
ordinary vision, accompanied by GER
tain indications of divine wrath against
heretics and people leading immoral
lives.
AS soon as the news reached Mo-
longo, the principal town in the dis
trict, the Municipal President and
minor officials, with an escort of over
sixty men, armed with rifles, went to
Texcapa, where they found every
body IN the public square executing
%grotesque dances in honor of the
Virgin of Guadalupe, around the ruins
of the Jail.
In this Jail, previous to Saturday,
had been confined Nicholas Her
nandes, Martin Santiago, Jose Manuel,
Casper Hernandez, Juan Tomas &C.
ond, Maria Juana, Maria Conception
and an infant child. They had been
rudely hurried from their homes at
dead of night on the extraordinary
charge preferred by the auxiliary
town Judge, that their lives were an
evil in the sight of God and that they
were enemies of the faith and here
tics, whom God had ordered, through
His holy saint, to be consumed by
fire. The auxiliary Judge related this
with the utmost sangfroid to the
authorities from Molongo, and could
not be made to see that he had done
wrong. He added that God had
wrought astonishing miracles to con-
firm what the saint had told him in
the vision, for directly following the
revelation God had made the earth
tremble and had bowed trees to the
ground in shame and had spoken to
him.
Twenty arrests were made, al
though the fanatical mob threatened
death to the authorities. The prison
ers, securely bound around the arms
and chained together, were marched
to Molongo, where a judicial investi-
cation will take place. The whole
population of Texcapa appears to
have gone mad.

From the Fulton Gazette.

FEULu u ultou ohActtcs
The Gazette has been advocating
harmony in the Democratic party for
several months. 1t has been sde-
nounced and abused for not agreeing
to stand for a fixed ratio between gold
and silver other than the commercial
ratio. Many county newspapers in
this State have been standing on the
platform of 16 to 1 or bust. Now they
have all at once turned tail and set up
a howl for harmony. They remind us
Of the boys who after setting a straw
stack afire began to howl,pu the fire
out. What has come over the spirit
of their dream? Such articles as they
are now publishing would have read
much better two or three months ago.

in Licking County, o., in 1879, and
moved to New London, Rails County,

tention to inventing. He invented
the first practical cor planter, which
was first patented in 1856, improved
and repatented in 1857. In 1870 he
leased his patents and patterns to
other parties and went to Arizona,
where he engaged in the newspaper

Hughes also invented and patented,
at Richmond, Va, a breech loading
cannon, the first make of these being
a battery of ten guns for Gen. NJ. JEFF.
Thompson, afterward manufacturing
large numbers for the State of Missis-
sippi.
He was owner Of a large land grant

through the treachery and manipula-
ton of Government agents this was
sold without his knowledge and as he
had over $4,000 invested ia this land
when it was taken from him it left
him comparatively g poor man. He
has travelled in 80 States and Terri
tories and through Canada and Next

Col. Hughes is now engaged in max
ing his W casket, in which he is to
