april cotto!* report.
Replica from Eleven Hundred Correspondents.
[From Bradstreet's, May 10.]
The April cotton report to Bradstreet re-
lates to the condition of the weather during
March as regards the preparations for plant-
ing, and the progress of planting to April 25,
tho average date of the replies. A table ac-
companying reveals that out of 657 cotton-
growing counties, reports have been received
from 001, the total number of replies being
1101. The 601 counties constitute 95 per
cent, of the total .cotton-growing nvea. Tha
replies show that in the Atlantic States,
and generally outside of Texas, the weather
during March was unusually bad as regards
preparations for planting. In Texass 100 cor-
respondents make the weather good during
March, 62 say fair and 51 bad. The Texas re-
port for April is almost the exact reverse of
that for March, as 104 correspondents maku
the weather bad, while 52 say fair and 59
good. The weather for April is reported from
fair to bad from all the States save Florida
and Alabama. The summary makes ,the
weather in Florida good aud in Alabama
about fair. The course of the weather during
March and to April 25 having been as indi-
cated, late planting was inevitable. The de-
lay in planting, as compared with the average
of recent years, is about ten days. The re-
ports as to acreage show that in North
Carolina a small decrease is probable,
while South Carolina will plant about the
same. A small increase is possible in Georgia
and Alabama. The reports from Mississippi
promise the same acreage as last year, with n
like story from Louisiana and Arkansas. Ten-
nessee reports a decrease, while word comes of
a considerable decrease in Texas. It is yet too
early to determine the cotton acreage of 1884.
The most that can be said now is that on the
whole there is no promise of a decrease, while
a large Increase in Texas may result
in a larger total area. Tne next
monthly report to Bradstreet's will
contain the best obtainable evidence as
to the total cotton acreage. The indications
are for an increased use of commercial fertil-
izers in Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi.
North Crolina leports a distinct tendency the
other way, while South Carolina will use about
the same. With regard to the entire cotton-
growing region our correspondents report a
distinct improvement in the condition and
efficiency of labor. This is true of all the large
States. Special attention was directed in our
circular of inquiry as to the importance of this
inquiry, and it is believed that the point
made is so far trustworthy as to be of
economic and political importance. Only
ninety-five correspondents in the entire cotton
region report the condition of labor worse as
compared with the average of recent years.
In the two Carolina? the reports received make
the financial condition of tho planters worse
than in recent years. In relation to this point
it should be borne In mind that tho great u i
jority of our correspondents are country
traders doing business in the immediate cottoil-
growing regions. Placed atone remove from
the planter, they are well situated for
correct observation. In Georgia and Ala-
bama the planter's condition is regarded as
rather worse. For MississiDpi no change is in-
dicated. In Texas, Arkansas and Tennessee
an improvement is noted. Louisiana is about
the same. It should be noted that the reports
relate to tho immediate condition of tho
planter as regards the ability to protect his ac-
count with the local trader; In this respect a
planter might be embarrassed for tho time
being along with an improvement in his
general financial condition, having regard in
the last instance to the state of cultivation his
farm is in and other general points of like
character.

Supreme Court.
Hfarnk vs. Gili.ktt — From Robertson
county. Opinion by Watts, J., adopted. An
uulocated land certificate is personal proper-
ty, but after location, it becomes a part of the
realty. When located it becomes a chattol
real nnd can not be transferred by parol. It
is then ]jk0 a deed, the ovidenco of title, and
although its sale, or assignment, subsequent to
its location may operate as a transfer of the
land in equity, yet it is the land that is sold,
and not the certificate. The location and sale
of a valid land certificate is such color of title
as will support tlio defense of three years
limitation and sustain an action of trespass
to try title. While it is a general rule that
the certificate passes with the land upon which
it is located, yet it may bo reserved from tho
operation of the conveyance and boiug floated,
have its character as personally restored.
However, without such reservation, the located
cei tiflcate ^passes with tho land, to the extent
of tho locution thereon. The bnrden is upon
the adverse party to show that tho certificate
did not pass, and not on the party claiming
under the conveyance to show that it did. In
this case it is claimed that tho following clause
m the tripartite agreement evidenced an in-
tention to reserve the certificate, to wit: "On
tho execution of deeds of conveyance therefor,
reconvening to them (W.'s), or such person as
theyj might name in lieu of themselves, the
title that was conveyed by said I). E. W. to
said C. C. II., and also the title under said
grunt of eleven leagues of land to said N."
Another clause of tho agreement reads:
''It is further stipulated that all parties
hereto shall respectively executo. to each
other deeds of conveyance for all tho right,
claim and title that each may have, or sup-
posed to have had in and to the parcels, or lots
§rouut' that may bo partitioned, allotted
and set apart under the foregoing covenant
and agreement to each of the parties hereto,
when such partition and allotments shall be
made." In pursuance of this agreement, par-
tition was nindo and deeds passed. There was
no reservation of the certificate by Mrs. H. to
appellant; this is claimed, however, to impli-
cation from the first clause of tho agreement
above quoted, and that the second clause does
not affect it. Held, the entire instrument
must be construed together, and, if susceptible
of a reasonable construction harmonizing all of
its provisions and giving full forco to
its various parts, such will be considered its
true interpretation. Construing the instru-
ment, tho court holds that the certificate to
the extent located upon tho land conveyed by
Mrs. H. to appellee, passed to and vested in
him, and he being owner to that extent he
had in interest in the land upon which it was
afterward located, proportionate to his in-
terest in the certificate. [50 Tex., 174; 52 Tex.,

Haulbech vs. Harbell etal.—From Bur-
net county. Opinion by Watts, J., adopted.
Parol evidence is inadmissible evidence of an
indorser against an indorsee to show that it
was agreed that the former should not be
liable, and that his indorsement was without
recourse on him. If so intended, it should bo
so expressed, and a drawer might
just as well offer evidence that
the holder agreed to look only
to the drawee. When suit is brought
against the maker of tho notes at the first term
after maturity, it secures and fixes tho liabili-
ty of the indorsers. [Rev. Stats., art. 632],
The liability of an indorser when fixed, is
about the same as that of a surety, aud tho
general rule is, that only those causes which
will excuse a surety, will excuse an indorser
whose liability has been fixed. Subjecting tile
"Little Jokeb," 's the best Smoking Tobacco,
property of the principal in the debt iu the
de prescribed by law, although it might
not sell for its real valne, in the absence of
fraud or irregularities in the sale, would not
avail the indorsee as a defense to an action by
the holder. Reversed aud remanded.
Texas and Pacific Railway vs. Niickolh
—From Lamar county. Opinion by Walker,
P. J., adopted. Appellee sued appellant for
damages for injuries received while employed
as a brakesman, alleging that the injury re-
sulted from defective couplings of appellant's
cars, the steep grade of its track, its carelesi-
ness ond negligence iu failing to furnish Siife
cars, drawheads, couplings, coupling-pins,
and in using dangerous machinery, etc., as
well as unbalanced tracks, all of which defects
were known to appellant but not to appellee.
Appellant answered by general denial, aud
further that the injury was the result of tho
negligence of appellee and his fellow-servants.
Judgmont for $10,000. Held, tho evidence
svus ample to show that the injuries occurred
from a combination of the causes alleged, and
was sufficient to sustain the judgment. [For
rule on liability of railroad companies iu cases
like the present see 1 Texas Law Review, 05;
49 Tex., 345, 185,] Affirmed.
Texas and Pacific Railway vs. Buhns—
From Tarrant county. Opinion by Watts, J ,
adopted. When depositions have been on lilo
for more than one entire day before trial, ob-
jections to the form or manner of taking same
can not be heard unless made iu writing aud
notice thereof given the opposite party by
filing it with the papers aud entering it on tho
motion docket. Motions not relating to tho
merits must be disposed of before the trial
commences. Evidence of tho pecuniary con-
dition of the plaintiff in an action for damages
is inadmissible to increase the damages, but.
where the mother sues for damages for tho
killing of her sou, and it is shown that the
son contributed to her support, such evidence
is admissible to show that such con-
tribution would have continued had
the son lived. Evidence that the company
made repairs at the point where the injury oc-
curred just after that time was inadmissible
as tending to show admission of previous nog
ligenco. While the employe assumes all risks
incidt nt to his employment, yet the company
is required to exercise reasonable care in pro-
viding a safe road-bed, suitable engine, cars,
etc., and is liable for injuries resulting from
defects which it knew or might have known
by ordinary diligence. Gross uegligenco—i. e.,
the want of slight care and diligence—not be
ing shown by the evidence iu this case, a
charge on exemplary damages was error. Tho
correct measure of damages in this case was
the probable amount deceased would have
contributed to appellee's support had he not
been killed. In determining this the age anil
probablo length of time the mother and son
might have lived are admissible. Reversed
and remanded.
International and Great Northern
railway vs. Nicholson—From Bexar coun-
ty. Opinion by Willie, C. J. In order to
show by extraneous evidence that tho value of
the subject matter is falsely estimated, in or
der to give the court jurisdiction, the matter
must be pleaded and it then becomes a ques-
tion to be determined by the jury. The juris-
diction of the court is not ousted by the mere
fact that the part}' claimed more and recov-
ered less than the amount of the jurisdiction.
Where the jury found for plaintiff the amount
sued for in view on the charge as to jurisdic
tied, such finding is hold to have iucludod thai
the court had jurisdiction. The general rule
applied to common carriers is that the measure
of damages is the value of the goods at tho
place of destination, less the cost of transport-
ation, but where there is no evidence of any
difference in value between the ploco
of shipment and tlmt of destination, and tho
goods were second-hand clothing, which had
no other value than that to tho owner, this
would furnish the measure of recovery. When
the charge is not clearly wrong, but not suffi-
ciently explicit on a given subject, it is for
tho aggrieved pnrty to ask a proper instruc-
tion. It is only whero tho freight mouey h is
been paid that it is to be deducted iu arriv-
ing at the proper amount of recovery.
Affirmed
Nave et al. vs. Britton—From Grayson
county. Opinion by Willie, C. J. Uuless'voi-l
on its face an assignment should be permitted
to go to the jury. Where the assignment
conveys all the property of every descrip-
tion belonging to tho firm making tfie
assignment this is a sufficient description.
'.I he deed of assignment giving the names of
creditors is not vitiated because of a simple
failure to state the nature and amount of their
demand. Omissions in tho deed of a state-
ment i f the property or creditors and their
demuios must be fraudulent to vitiate the
diet,: wl ere s"ch*intent is not apparent ou the
fact oi iio deed, to effect vitiatiou it must lie
clearly i roved. When the attachment in this
case w as levied, none of the creditors had beeu
paid, us no property had been sold, and us tho
assignment passed title to and vested it iu th •
assignee by levying the attachment, appellants
became trespassers, and the onus was u]>on
them to show right to the property orBoin-
jv.ry to creditors. Affirmed.
Marx vs. Langk, Lewy & Co.—From
Caldwell county. Opinion by Delany, J.
adopted. Where the court permitted plaintiff
to recall defendant's witnesses after they had
been examined by defendant in rebuttal, and
the testimony hud closed, for the purposi ot
laying a predicate for impeachment. Held,
mutters of this character are so far committed
to the discretion of the court that in the ab-
sence of clear abuse the judgment will not be
disturbed. Where the court charged that the
claimant's claim must be clear and abundant.
Held, not a reversible error. It was error to
instruct the jury that if appellaut h id invest-
ed $500 of htr own separate money, it would
be protected from her husband's debts so long
as it was so invested. Judgment against the
husbond was unauthorized; it already existed
ugaintt him on the debt, and a second judg-
ment would only render him liable for the
costs. Reversed aud remanded.
City National Bank vs. Strong—From
Tarrant county. Opinion by Stayton, J. Bills
ot' exceptions should show whether the motion
for continuance overruled was a first or subse-
quent motion. Where the mistake iu the
amount of the draft was made by the cashier
of the bank, aud it does not appear that ap-
pellee had any notice of the mistake wheu ho
handed it back to tho cashier with a request
that he inclose it and direct it to C, and de-
posit it with the bank's mail, however fraudu-
lent C's nctious in receiving more than he
knew was intended to bo paid, yet the appellee
can not be held liable to the bank for any loss
occasioned by its own mistake. Where tho
judge refused on motion to make out the state-
ment of facts found by him, it must be made
to appear in some manner before it can be re-
vised. Affirmed.
Franks et al. vs. Chapman et al—Erom
Atascosa county. Opinion by Staton, J. See
this case on former appeal, 2 Texas Law Re-
view, 53. Held, the County Court is the proper
tribunal in which to contest the validity of au
instrument admitted to probate as the will of
a deceased person. Save in the one respect
given by the constitution the District Court
ha» no original jurisdiction over such matters.
Judgmenfs of courts of genornl jurisdiction
are conclusive of the question decided, wheu
the jurisdiction of the persons nud subject
matter has been acquired, unless tho sumo be
set aside by some revisory proceeding allowed
by law, but it does not follow that this revisory
power must be exercised in some court exercis-
ing strictly appellate jurisdiction over the
court rendering judgment. In the absence of
constitutional prohibition the legislature has
power to provide, at least in probate causes,
that a court may revise its own judgments in
such way as not to conflict with constitutional
restrictions. The legislature intended to give
persons interested in a will a remedy, by
which they could contest its validity, either
for want of the requirements to clothe the pro-
bate court with necessary powers, or for want
of the essentials of a will. Probate courts of
this State liavo authority to revoke the pro-
bate of wills which they have probated De-
murrer was improperly sustained and the
cause dismissed. Under the facts upon which
this cause was sent to the District Court, that
court lias now original probate jurisdiction.
Reversed and remanded.
Bbuner Bros. vs. Strong—From Lamar
county. Opinion by Stayton, J. It is a gen-
eral rule that all evidence in regard to conver-
sations between parties before reducing an
agreement to writing, which may have re-
sulted in a written contract clear iu its terms,
is inadmissible- for the purpose of giving
another meaning than that conveyed by tho
language used to the writing. When fraud,
accident or mistake has prevented the use of
language indicating the true intent of the par-
ties, such intent may bo shown. There is no
pretense in this case that the contract does not
evidence the true intention of the parties, but
it is contended that the agreement was not to
be operative unless appellant gave appellee
such information as would enable him to buy
and deliver cattle nt a price and expense
so that he might realize a proht of
£1 per head over the price the appellants
agreed to pay him. But such is not the effect
of the contract in this case. Appellee agreed
to deliver the cattle absolutely, but oil the face
of the instrument it appears that, if he could
not under the contract price first named,
make a certain profit, then he was to doliver
the cattle at another named price. Tho agree-
ment precluding tho idea of representations
by nppelants, intended or un ' erstood, to the
foundation of the contract, the court erred iu
overruling demurrers which went to that part
of the answer seeking to avoid liability on the
ground of appellant's failure to give til) in-
formation named. Reversed aud remanded.
Court of Appeals.
Lee vs. the State—From Call.aghan
county. Conviction for permitting gaming on
his premises. The only error assigned and
noticed, relates to the charge of the court on
tho question as to the deed to the premises. No
objection was made to the deed when it was
offered in evidence. It was for the court to
construe the deeds and to determine their
effect, and in doing so in this case no errorap
pears. Affirmed.
Shbbrod vs. the State—From Brown
county. Conviction for au aggravated assault
and buttery on one Wilsou. As no bills of ex-
ceptions were taken to the points made in the
lower court and insisted on hore, thoy can not
be noticed and for the sanje reason the court's
charge can not ho revised. Nc>|fundameutaier-
ror appearing tho judgment is affirmed.
Womack vs. the State — From Erath
county. Opinion by White, P. J. The gen-
eral rule relating to confessions is, that to
be admissible they shall have been voluntarily
made without hope or fear from any ono.
The accused agreed to turn state's evidonce
against a confederate aud detailed matter
wbich criminated himself. He subsequently
refused to testify against his confederate ami
repudiated his agreement with the district at-
torney mid denied the statements imputed to
him. A. witness was permitted to testify to
the statements made. Held, the test was
w hether the accused was induced to make the
statements by promise or hope of immunity
held out to him by the State. I f so, no bad
laith will qualify the witness to detail the
statements before the jury. Had the state-
ments been admissible, tho evidonce is insuffi-
cient. Roversed and remanded.
I.ane vs. the State—From Llano county"
Opinion by White, P. J. Where the desired
evidence is shown to be material, yet when in-
sufficient diligence is apparent, the motion for
continuance should not be granted. The court
correctly charged the jury in these words:
" The inteut to injure tho owner (of the horse)
is the gist of this offense, but such intent may
be presumed from the killing." [Art. 679 P.
C., Jones vs. State, 13 Ct. App. 1.1 The evi-
dence not being of that conclusive character
essential to support a verdict of guilty the
judgment is reversed aud the cause remanded.
Reversed and remanded.
Adams vs. the State—From Comanche
County. Opinion by Willson, J. A plea of
former conviction is defective when it does
not set out the record of the former convic-
tion and specifically allege the identity of the
person nnd the offense. When no objection is
raised to the plea, however, evidence offered
in support of it w ithout objection will be con-
sidered. Where the evidence showed that at
the same time nnd place defendant branded
another anininl and the defense was that both
;u-ih constituted but ono ofi'ense, tho animal
belonging to the same person. Held, the rule
applies as v. ell to this case as to theft, and r.he
(flirt errtd in charging. 1. To constitute such
defense tho branding of the two
animals must have been simultaneous acts.
2 That if the animals belonged to different
persons the defense would not avail. 3. Also,
in refusing instructions embodying tho law, as
herein set forth. A defendant's affidavits for
attachments for witnesses, wherein he set up a
different defeuse, is inadmissably against him.
[Austin vs. State, 3 Texas Law Review, 107.]
Reversed and remanded.
Thompson vs. the State —From Jack
county. Opinion by Willson, J. For the es-
seniin'l elements of au indictment, in cares like
this, see Alexander vs. the State (29 Tex.,
495). The indictment in this case is insufficient.
Vi liile it informs the defendant that ho is
charged with wilfully disturbing a congrega-
tion assembled for religious worship, it does
not inform him of the means or manner. The
case of Kindred vs. State (33 Tex., 67) is no
longer the law in this State. Reversed and
remanded.
Coulson vs. thf State—From Collin coun-
ty. Opinion by White, P. J. Conviction for
libel. Held, libel is that class of cases wherein
tho indictment must set forth the language
used in ha;e verba. In Brownlow vs. State (7
liumpb., 62) au indictment similar to the one
in question, charged that the libel "contained,
among other things, the following false, libel-
ous and malicious matter and things, accord-
ing to the tenor following, that is to say."
It was then held, "this averment professes
to set forth the substance and not the words of
the libel, and therefore is not valid." An in-
dictment for libel shuuld profess to set forth
on its face an accurate copy of tho alleged
libel in words or figures, and if it does not, it
is insufficient. This rule is tho law iu this
State. Although the writing in this cose was
written and sent to the party receiving it, and
not intended to be seen or reud by nny one
else, yet it constitutes libel for which a prose-
cution will lie, The indictment being insuf-
ficient, the judgment is revorsed and the cause
dismissed.
W bought Iron Range Company va
Bookf.b—From Grayson county. Opinion by
Wilhon, J. Appellee levied an" execution on
certain property as the property of C. Bros.,
which was claimed by appellant as the
\\ rcught lion Bridge company, and a trial of
the right of pioierty whs had. Appellant
pieade I that the judgment was against W. H.
H. H. and J.. L C., while the property be-
longed to said parties as a corporation, known
as the V\ ronght Iron Bridge company. Held,
the pleu was not good on demurrer, it showing
that tho property did belong to defendants in
executiou. The objections to the judgment
fromGeoreia, upon wbich judgment in this
State was predicted, failed to show that the
Georgia court did not acquire jurisdiction.
Affirmed.

Triple Lynching in Howard County.
A Pcdillcr'a gliorkinu Death—Arrcat of the
Murderer*, who are HaiiKrd by the
Knraged (Ttizeua.
[Special to The Nkws.I
Little Rock, Ark., May 16.—Tho particu-
lars of a horrible tragedy, resulting in a triple
lynching in Howard county, are justj received.
A young man named Ward, living at Pres-
cott, went out to the southern portion of How-
ard county with a peddler's pack, about two
weeks since, and, not being heard from, one
of his brothers went in search and found a
young man named Pope, who had sold a horse
corresponding in description with the one rode
by his younger brother.
I Returning home, Mr. Ward sent back a
deputy sheriff who arrested the two Pope
brothers and a man named Kuykendull on
suspicion of being the slayors of the peddler,
Ward. The younger Pope made a full confes-
sion aud gave the horrible details of the man-
ner in which Ward was shot in tho back of the
head and the body burned. He claimed that
Kuykendall instigated the affair.
Investigation developed the fact that only
tho teeth and a few of the larger bones re-
mained. Portions of tho peddler's goods wore
found at the house of the suspected parties,
and they were turned over to the sheriff of
Howard county, who was preparing to take
them to Arkadelphia for safo keeping.
Excitement ran high at Prescgtt, and there
were indications of the formatiou of a lynch-
ing pnrty. Before the arrival of the expected
party from Howard county en route to Arka-
delphia, a message was received to the effect
that the citizens of Howard county had dealt
swift justice to the heartless butchers, and that
the Pope brothers and Kuykoudall had been
hanged to the limb of a tree by tho infuriated
citizens.
