JOHNSON".
Cleburne Tclegraiu of vVednesday: W. R.
Warner was tried iu the District Court, ou u
charge of cattle •stealing, but *vas acquitted.
Yesterday about noon he met Captain Plum
nicr, the prosecutive attorney, on the west
side of tho square, and made a savage attack
upon him. As fur as we cau learn (there were
no near witnesses), Warner struck Cuptain
Hummer on the eve and knocked him
down and jumped 011 him. A gentleman
who saw the scuflle ran up nnd pulled him off,
and Marshal Crirner took charge of him.
Cupti.i 1 Plummet* was taken to Foster & Lc-
gan's drug store and surgical aid summoned.
Dr. J. I>. Osborn, who was called, placed the
injured man under the iufluence of anesthet
ics. His shoulder is broken, and he is other-
wise set ly'injured. The cause of it wa>
evidently his prosecution of Warner. War
ner was at first released on a small bond, but
on learning the serious nature of Captain
Plummer's injuries he was re-arresteu ami
jailed.

The grasshopper has turned his attention to

The San Antonio (Tex.) liiues says; There
is a vt ry creditable rumor going the rounds
»n this city this morning that on account of
the oppressiveness of the Mexican government
in levying tribute ou them by the stamp act
nnd in either ways, the well known firm of
Miltno Brothers, composed of Daniel and Pat-
rick Milmo, w ill transfer their entire interests
from Mexico to this side e>f the Rio Grande.
he Milnios are worth about $10,000,'>00, have
lor a loug time done a very extensive banking
busine-sat Monterey and ed her Mexican cit-
ies, and own thousands of acres of lanel and
large mining interest. They have been the
most loyal and steadfast citizens Mexico had
and have often helped that government iu
time of great need, but it h s become so op-
pressive and exacting that th« y will not stav
there, any longer. It is said that a few days
ago soldn rs went to their bank in Monterey
and forciblj entered the vaults and took pos-
session of a large sum of money which they
claimed to lie due to the government under
the stamp act.
Cotton is indigt nous to the soil in this por-
tion ot the Slate of Jalisco, ami is grown ou
the alluvial belt running parallel with the
coast, as well us up the valleys of the San
Pedro and Santiago rivers.
The average cr< p will y Hd a bale and a half
to the acre, but two and a half bales are fre-
quently r. alized in a fa voruble season. Each
I ale t out litis about 100 pounds, and that
weight is st ictly adhered to for tho reason
that two of the in make a le»ad for a pack mule.
Cotton is generally planted at the end of the
rainy season, during the mouths of September
and October, consequently the boll is about
formed when Ibis unfriendly season arrives.
A few days of cloudy weather at the setting
of the boll, or a continued shower without an
interval of sunshine, or a few cold nights iu
succession, absolutely kills the . boll, which
immediately drops and the plant dies.
All the liner grades of cotton fabrics are im-
ported from England, France, Germany and
the United States; the principal part comes
from the former, while the latter furnishes
the least. '1 his unequal division is not owing
to the inferiority of our manufacture; on the
( out! ary, its superiority among consumers is
universally admitted; but the entire .mercan-
tile} community ar> foreigners, with foreign
alliances of long standing. They naturally
patronize their own countrymen, as Ameri-
cans do theirs; but greater than all these cou-
slehrations, however, are the subt le foreign
prejudices existing against American inter-
vention.
