—St. Louis is exorcised over
the question of “swill milk,”
which the Republican discovers
has been served to the people of
that city for some time, and is
now exposing in a vigorous
manner.
—-Grant has sent to Washing-
ton and removed from the vaults
of the Treasury, several swords
left there for safekeeping, This
may be the first thing Grant
ever took from the United States
Treasury, in person, but his in-
timate friends, have'filched-hun-
dreds of thousands of dollars
from iLs „ *ooi)09ltp jriBdiooB
—The boys have organized a base
ball eliib and intend to push it forward
by persistent practice, to perfection.
The object will be simply to organize a
nine that will after some practice be
able to whack the Fort Worth base
ballists.^ With that object in view, they
are willing to work assidiousiy, and
when that object has been attained it
will be glory enough to simply die out
then and there;; for it will not take la
prophet to foresee and: foretell that it
will be the virtual death ol Paddock,
ol the Democrat.—Cleburne, Tribune.
It would hurt our feelings very
much to have our nine defeated
by the Clehurnites, but we don’t
believe it wouid quite kill us out-
right. Come up any way and
give the boys a rustle ; we will
take the chances on it.
—We are neither a “bull” or
a “bear,” iu a monetary sense,
and however much we may be
either one or the other in the
newspaper line, we are certainly
neither, as we have said before,
Jn respect to bonds, stocks, se-
curities, etc., etc. But it is both
entertaining and instructive,
just at the present time, to note
the ups 'and downs and the swift
and inexplicable vacillations of
American securities in European
markets. The phenomena is
easily explained.
Europe is in a state of agita-
tion—in other words there is a
wqr panic—and, of course, it is
rather difficult for a person in
the very midst of such an all
absorbing demoralization to
keep his head perfectly clear.
One standing at a safe distance
can see the folly of the excited
and panic-stricken capitalists,
who, in the present fevered per-
turbation, can not look a foot
beyond their own noses.
Such cool and undisturbed
calculators may very reasonably
ask, why should American se-
curities decline? What has
America to do with the war?
She cannot,, in any possible
state of the case, become in-
volved, and with the present
tattering crop prospects ahead
©t her, what has she in the fu-
tore but, a whole host of fat
things stuffed out and out with
marrow’ ?
And that is the correct view ;
and yet, as we have said, the
European alarm is natural, for
they, as yet, see nothing in the
whole horizon but : veritable
war, and a general war at that.
But let theseEjiiropoean capital-
ists only put on, even for a brief
spell, their ‘thinking caps,” arid
they will see as -we . see, that
while the whole of Christendom
—aiid more still — may become
involved, yet we are not to be
seduced from the policy which
Mad dogs are becoming too
numerous in Dallas to he com-
fortable. Two were killed in
that city last Wednesday.
We learn from the San Saba
Neics, that Geo. W. Barnett has
conditionally disposed of his
Mason county mine for $100,000.
Poles for the telegraph from
Waco to Cleburne have been
distributed along the line, which
will be completed within the
next sixty days.
Wheat is worth one dollar and
fifty cents per bushel in Coryelle
county, and farmers are already
regretting that they did not
plant more heavily last fall.
Gen. T. M. Logan, now of
Richmond, Ya., will be present
and deliver an address at the
annual re-union of Hood’s Texas
Brigade, at Waco on the 27th
of June next.
The firemen and city authori-
ties of Paris, Lamar county, are
at loggerheads, about shabby
treatment ot the firemen by the
city council. The local papers
side with the firemen.
The’appraisement of peniten-
tiary,property is about complete,
and a dispatch from Austin,
states that the state will owe
Ward, Dewey & Co. about $30,.
000. Look out lor a huge bug
under that chip.
The wool clip in south-western
Texas is far in excess of that of
former years, and of a much bet
ter .quality owing to the im-
provements in the breed of
sheep. Wool is bringing a
pround price.
Mrs. Thomas Dwyer of Bren-
ham has, at her own expense,
fitted up, in that city, a public
reading room, for the benefit of
the young men of that city. A
good work that will surely have
its reward. A tttO0fl*tlufni8 A 1
Tom Green county is a pardise
for the hunter. Besides buffalo
in winter and spring, bear,*deer,
antelope and wild turkeys are
to lie found at all seasons, while
the numerous streams are well
stocked with excellent fish.
At Bradly City, McCulloch
county, several new buildings
are being put up, and that a con-
tract is let to build a large hotel.
The county has much good land
and is well adapted to grazing, as
well as farming.
Menard county has a very se-
cure jail and court house build-
ing, all under one roof, which is
built of stono, and is paid for.
This is much more than many
older counties can say.
As matters stand,- the sym-
pathies of the Americans are
not much enlisted. The war in
the East is popularly considered
a dog-eat-dog affair. We really
don’t care a great deal which
whips. There is a slight incli-
nation, perhaps, against Turkey,
based on the vague notion that
England may espouse her cause,
and Germany thus be brought
in on the side of Russia ; in
which event we should be for
the Russo - German alliance.
General Grant’s appearance as
Commander-in-chief of the Turk-
ish armies would change all
this. To begin on, it would im-
mensely stimulate the sale of
American newspapers. Ameri
ca would get up every morning
to see what our little man did
yesterday. WTe should follow
his career as wre never followed
it before, for it would unite us.
All of us would be for Grant.
The national pride would be
aroused, and we should, -with
one accord, rally to the Ameri-
can, just as we once rallied to
the Benicia Boy. If he won vie
tories, it would open a market
for Turkish bouds ; the capital
interest of the country ahvays
stuck to Grant and would stick
to him again. Arms and muni-
tions of war would flow’ to him
spontaneously. He would go
in with two to one in the game
against his antagonist. In a
word, his identification with
Turkey would enlist the United
States on the side of the Otto-
man: infuse new blood into its
old Port; secure the moral sup-
port of enlightended Christen
dom; make a union ot the Mus-
sulman and the yankee, and
generally smash things. More
than this, it would be a vent for
American valor; thousands of
restless soldiers would follow
Grant to the Orient; we should
see the Federal and Confederate
enlisted under bis banner, trans-
lating “Dixie” and “Tramp,
tramp, tramp” into good Arabic,
chanting “Hail Columbia” on

the Dnieper, and waking the)
glens of Khiva-with the echoes
of “The Bonnie Blue Flag,”
—The Galvestonian takes up the cud-
gel to strike the country papers of the
State for not publishing the name ot
the county at the head of the paper.
Quite a desirable thing, indeed, if one
of those little nuggets of knowledge
should get away from home.—Dallas
‘Herald.
Which simply illustrates and
coToborates the opinion hereto-
fore expressed by the Demo-
crat that the average Texas
editor was not necessarily a man
of very extended information.
Of course the editor of the Gal-
vestonian has no means of
knowing, whether the Herald
is published in Hill county or in
Hamilton. The Galvestonian
we believe hails from Brazoria
and is a faithful advocate of the
interests of that bail-iwick.
—People are becoming some-
what impatient iu regard to the
war, and are beginning to think
that it will not amount to much
after all, because no fighting ol
consequence has yet taken place.
War was declared by the Czar’s
manifesto at Kischeneff April
24, just two weeks ago, aud
since then the Russians have
really manifested wonderful
alacrity and diligence, since they
have advanced iu four columns
in Asia,, and have brought their
heavy artillery, infantry and
baggage trains over two hun-
dred, and fifty miles of Rouman-
ian mud, the. worst iu Europe.
No war of consequence in mod
ern times has actively opened
with field engagements short of
two or three weeks after the
declaration, and we must not,
therefore,, expect too much#rom
the Bussians, who are proverbi-
ally slow, or from the Turks,
who are incomparably slower.
We shall doubtless hear from
Four years ago France Was
bankrupt in name and fame,
resources of the country were
in a great measure ruined, the
State coffers were empty, a for-
eign army was mustered on
French soil, and the enormous
sum of $1,000,300,000 dollars to
be paid, the Germrnssent home,
and to day France en joys a state
of financial prosperity (excep-
tional even in Europe/ Within
the last nine mouths the direct
taxes have yielded $10,000,000,
and the indirect taxes $20,000,000
raoie than the amounts estima-
ted. Agriculture is the basis ol
French prosperity. Her peas-
antry are sober aud industrious,
the bulk of them owning theii
own houses, and cheerfully pav-
ing their taxes; the finances are
well administered, and hence
the present prosperous state of
the country. It is strange tnat
in Germany a victorious war
and the receipt of an enormous
sum of money should be fol-
lowed by a period of financial
depression, while in France ex-
aetly the reverse has taken
place. It is, however, true, and
the present constitution of
France is an object of envy to
the neignhpring nations.
