Rumor of the Murder of Ex-May-
or Brown and Others of
St. Louis.
St. Louis, April 29.—A private
letter to a business house in this city,
dated Los Vegas, New Mexico,
April 29th, says it is reported there
that James Broyvn, ex-mayor of this
city, and a party of St. Louis men,
were murdered by Indians at or near
White Oaks, Staunton county, New
Mexico, on the 20th inst.
Cyclone in South Carolina.
Columbia, S. C., April 29.—
There was a heavy rain-fall here this
afternoon, during which a cyclone
swept across the southeastern part
of the city. Large trees were blown
down, and two houses, one with a
family of eight negtoes and the other
with three, were completely wreck-
ed and a woman and three chidren
seriously injured. News from be-
low the city is to the effect that many
farm buildings were carried away.

Columbus, April 29.—As nearly
as can he learned, out of forty dis-
trict delegates chosen yesterday to
attend the Chicago convention, eight
were for Blame. Sherman’s friends,
however, claim that the delegation
will be solid for Sherman at Chicago.
Mr. Williams, a San Antonio
man, passed on the trail yesterday,
with a herd of three thousand cattle,
most yearlings. Another party pass-
ed with one thousand in one herd.
They had left their wagon standing
at their camp, and by some means
the wood under it caught fire, and
just as Mr. Raby, of Osage and an-
other gentleman came along the
flames commenced burning through
the bed. The wagon contained
provisions, bedding, and a quantity
of coal oil, which together with the
wagon would have been a total lbss
in a few minutes had not the gentle-
men happed to be passing-— Waco

From our own Correspondent.
Washington, April 26, 1880.
“Blessed is lie that bloweth his own
horn, for if he bloweth it - not the same
shall not be blowed.”—Maxim of Maxey
“Senators Maxey and Coke have been
unremitting in their efforts to obtain re-
lief for the improvements of the bars
and harbors on the Texas coast; and
especially in the prompt manner in which
they responded to the petitions of our
neighbors of Arkansas; that through the
most strenuous efforts of Senators Coke
and Maxey, an addition al appropriation
of $35,000 was allowed by congress with
the promise that the work should be com-
menced immediately.”—Cueto Bulletin,
A t>nl 22.
When I read of the great things
that Maxey does, honible thoughts
come to my mind as to what would
be the fate of Texas if Maxey were
to die. I can imagine u great many
ills that states and people can get
over, hut J can not imagine any plan
by which Texas' interest! could sur-
vive ii we lost our Maxey. But
then the question that comes up to
mind is, what would we have done
if Maxey had never been born ? I
am prepared to prove by Chenoweth
that Maxey is a greater lawyer than
Clioat, Webster or Cushing; a great-
er statesman than the combined trio
of Webster, Clay and Calhoun ; and
I expect that I could prove by him
that the main reason the confed-
erate armiesfailt*! were because Lee,
Johnston and Jackson, and not
Maxey, were at the head ot affairs.
If Maxey had the age of old Uncle
Hannibal Hamlin or Susan B. An
thony, I suppose he would claim
that the pyramids of Egypt or the
Colosseum ol Rome were built by
designs furnished by him. Now
were he to claim the credit above
stated he would not be farther from
the truth than the merit claimed by
the Bulletin for the appropri
ation for Aransas. The truth
of the matter is, that Maxey
did nothing in the matter at all. Mr.
C. A. Whitney, ol the Morgan line,
and a repulicau cuss, Senator Dawes,
of Massachusettes, were the ones
that went before the committee and
did the most important work. Coke
and Upson were before the commit-
tee, but the work as stated before,
was done by Whitney and Dawes.
It is a humiliating thing to say of our
Maxey, but the truth is that it was
Dawes, a Massachusetts senator, that
went with Whitney to ask for an ap-
propriation for a Texas harbor, and
not our Texas democrat Senator
Maxey. Now we are told that his
efforts in the matter were strenuous;
when he knew nothing of the matter
til! it was over. It matters notwhat
Culberson, Reagan, Wells, Well-
born or Upson may do; as soon as it
is done, Maxey’s fuglemen in the j
state shout plaudits to Maxey. This j
cannot be accidental, but we are led j
to the belief that our West Point l
polished senator could tell the source {
the information comes from. Now j
let the Cuero Bulletin rise and ex- ;
plain by what means they learned |
that Maxey assisted by “strenuous I
means” to get a measure through the !
committee that Maxey was ignorant j
of, till it was accomplished. lie has j
evidently been imposed upon, for I
hold myselt ready to prove that 1
Maxey did nothing at all in the mat- j
ter. This is a statement that can be :
proved true or false. Will Maxey !
and friends come up to the rack or '
else acknowledge the corn ?
Hayes was treated to another stab j
to-day, by his friends. Allison, of ;
Iowa, offered an amendment to the ;
biil for creating a retired list for non-
commissioned officers, increasing the
number of cadets at large from 10 to
12, and making it obligatory on the
president that two shall be negroes. 1
When it is remembeied that after j
the last presidential election— j
as soon as Hayes heard that j
Tilden was elected, he wept for i
three days and nights, not for him-
self, but for the pobr negro, and yet i
has not appointed a ne^ro cadet to I
West Point, and now Allison wants
to make him give 1-6 per cent, of J
his appointments the negroes. In !
this connection l will say that there
are about 140 republican members
in the house, yet they have not ap- \
pointed a single negro cadet. Alii- !
son, you may remember, has been
spoken of for vice president, and
this may be a bid of his for the ne-
gro[vote, for we all know he is not
honest in the move. Cockrell, of
Missouri, wanted to amend Allison’s
motion so that it should be made
compulsory on the republicans to
nominate a negro for vice president.
Motion lost.
The Kellogg and Spofford case is
now up. This is one of the cases
that I will have to pass in making
up my mind as to what will be the
result, though I am inclined to think
it will go over till next winter. It
is impossible to get a vote on the |
bill on its merits alone. Selt-inter-
est controls in this matter.
Throckmorton's friends here are
will pleased with his being appoint-
ed delegate to the national conven-
tion. His speecli in the Galyeston
convention is well spoken of. If
Throckmorton will but formally an-
nounce himself as a candidatefor the
senatorship and go around among
the boys, tiiere will be but little
trouble about his being elected.

Arrested.
Philadelphia, April 29.—Peter
Ellis, alias “Luther,” alias “Long
Pete,” alias “BanjoPete,” and Abra-
ham Coakley, charged with com-
plicity in the Manhattan bank rob-
bery, were arrested last night after a
desperale struggle with officers.
The famed English Astrologer,
“Zadkiel,” made a grievous predic-
tion last fall for the United States.
He says: “The presence of Mars
in the seventh hense [in the astro-
logical “figure” set for the vernal in-
gress, which occured on the 20th of
March] and in Gemini (the sign rul-
ing the United States) is ominous of
war and as Mars wants but nine de-
grees and five minutes of the perlect
square aspect ot Jupiter (lord of the
ascendant), I judge that war will
break out within ten weeks of the
day of this ingress.” He hopes,
however, it may be nothing more
than a quarrel with the Indians.
The prophet also says that “in New
York in the month of May excite-
ment will be at fever heat, and the
marshaling ot troops will rouse the
martial instincts of the American
people.” A metropolitan theater in
England is threatened by fire about
the same period.
Supposed Horsethief Captured.
Last Sunday, the 25th inst., a Mr.
Wilson captured a young man in the
Nation on a horse that had been
stolen from him, and brought his
prisoner to Denison and lodged him
in the calaboose. The next morn-
ing the young man proved that he
did not steal the horse, but that he
traded with a half-breed Creek,
named N. Doyle, for the animal.
Since that time policeman Morrill
been keeping a sharp lookout for
Doyle, and Friday learned he was
on Layne’s place near this city.
In the evening, about 5 o’clock,
Morrill, accompanied by Massey,
proceeded to Layne’s and arrested
him. He was brought to town and
lodged in the calaboose. Doyle
pleads innocence. This man Doyle
is a remarkable pistol shot. Only a
few days ago lie was in town and
offered to wage' he could dn better
shooting with a pLtol than any man
in Denison with a rifle.
Glenn’s Fails, in Warren county. New
York, is a beautiful fall of the Hudson
over a precipice seventy feet high, a few
miles from the Great Bend. A village in
the vicinity of the fads is railed Glenn-
ville, but it is a mistaken idea that the
famous Glenn’s Sulphur Soap takes its
name from this place. Sold by all drug-
gists.
