The extension of railroads from the Western cities to the interior of the North and. the Southwest lias already diverted from us a large volume of trade, and this diversion will undoubtedly continue and be incrtuticd." Again: Novr in the face of this competition, even when our desired irail- roud connections are accomplished, it will be necessary, to make our competition for the bulk of the business successful, that sill our local charges ihall be reduced. In other words, we must make trade as free as possible." And that is the secret of successful commercial competition in ft nut-shell. There are in these two extracts quoted a lesson for our own city we should say strikingly parallel.

"We have not forgotten the past grandeur of the Queen City of the South, and while many of her misfortunes are attributable to political causen, she finds that before she can again recover, all onerous burdens upon commerce mu-st be removed. Gulveston is being intersected in thn rear, even morn dit'tctrnniily tlmn is Orleaus, by lines of communication which menace a tiade that naturally belongs here, and that these lines will continue to improve and extend is undoubted. Are the people of Galveston prepared, to see their trade gradually taken away froci them by injudicious monopoly, when no many pointed examples exist for tlieir information and guidance If they arc, all they have to do is to quietlj sleep on, and such local organizations, as the and it-WHS quietly resolved that the nuistnce should be removed. This was in Massachusetts, an old State, where law lias had fair trial for more than two centuries. One might suppose tliat the people knew what was lawful and what was fi.rt; whut was to be hoped from a just administration ol local law, and what the law could not reach.

They organized just such a court as misfit huve liet-n summoned in the of Arizona, or presided over by Judge Lynch. A party of men, in the darkness of night, went to the domicile of the offenders, provided ivith a wagon containing tar, feathers, and other instruments of punishment well known to those who have "assisted" at a Lynch tribunal. One of the objectionable men was at home. to entice him out of doors, his house--no longer his castle--was broken open, and he was drugged out, handcuffed, aud thrust into the wagon along i the materials for Iiisintend- ed garments. In the scullle, the resisting victim got out a pistol, fired ut random among his tornenters.

and killed one of them. Tlie comedy of justice became a tragedy. The self- appointed ministers of popular law were smitten with the weapon they had drawn. The right of a to defend himself illegal attack was bloodily vindicated. JLyiicli law collapsed, and a coroners jury, summoned the statutes of the ancient Commonwealth of Massachusetts, decreed that the homicide was committed in oelf-defcnse.

Unclsr the above head the National JRaruMican of Washington City, of the 6th iaatant, has the following: The account of Ger. W. T.

They like a good excuse for idleness, and "want a crowd to keep them in company and countenance.

The Johnstown (Pa.) Tribune thinks that place has seen its last strike from the dictation of trades unions, and says: Until demagogues, who do uot livo here, undertook, by arums of incendiary newspapers and incendiary speeches and offers of pecuniary assistance, to inflame the minds of our work- iugmen, there was no more contented community in the State than this. These meddlers iirst organized branches of their unions, and next fomented a strike to maintain them. The result of all their fine talk about principle and workingmcn's rights," and of all their beautiful promises is. that the men, they deceived lost three months' wages and almost starved their families. We believe, further, that the principle of trades-unionism has been as completely rejected in this community as has ths leadership of those who brought here its bitter fruits.

The right of any man to quit work when his compensation does not suit him will always exist, but the exercise of this right is quite a different matter from the assertion of the right of a dozen or a hundred men to say that othprsshall not go to work or continue ut work because they will not. There is no such right, and the effort to enforce the acceptance of the assumption that people will be that he justly met his death while engaged in a felonious and nnlawful expedition. If there is any reasonable excuse for the execution of Lynch law anywnere, it is in the sparsely settled regions ot the Republic where the administration of iustice is uncertain, jails are insecure, and lawless criminals have powerful confederates ready to rescue theru. Under such circumstances it must be noticed the sentence of tlie accused man is always death. Men have been hanged by Judge Lynch for theft, arson, malicious mischief and petty larceny.

The sacred right of human once invaded, it is easy and natural for popular vengeance always to take that fatal shape. But it is safe to say that in no spot of the American Union is the execution of lynch law ever or under any circumstances justifiable. All civilised communities recognize the sanctitj of human life by intiicting upon the murderer the most awful of human punishments, and by surrounding the accused with every possible safeguard against an unjust condemnation and execution. A popular that takes the execution of law out of the hands of these responsible for its administration is a crime against society more deadly than any so-called legal offense can possibly be" It were better that a great wrong should be endured--if the law can not cure it--than law and order should be subverted in a mad attempt to substitute a mud burlesque for a vital prinei- le.

As members of Congress are to be elected this fall, I think every candidate should iliysicians of Galveston, after fall examination, came to the conclusion that they do not know whether the poor Mary Cooper, died a virgin or not. The Age can not have read their report carefully.

They could not well have been more explicit in their opinion that the against her was entirely without foundation. The Austin Statesman says lumber is selling there now at $25 per 1000 feet, while at Rockdale, some forty miles distant, it can be had for $18. The Statesman remarks as follows: It seems to us that the Central Road and the business men of Austin, will have to compete with Rockdale, otherwise the immense trade from Williamson, Coryell, Lampasas, and other upper counties, will all go to the terminus of the luternntional Railroad.

And from those moments Mr.

The outbreak at Martha's Vineyard is significant, because it shows how it is possible for the roob spirit to ferment in old-settled communities.

We should scarcely look for such a demonstration of lawlessness in staid old Massachusetts, and it is quite likely that the tragical termination of this affair will not only sober the principal actors therein, but will rebuke the temper of mob-inclined people every-' where. When it is understood that a man is prepared to defend life and person by all desperate means, there may be less inclination execute upon him. summary and popular If the Martha's Vineyard people were moved by the tradition of "Floyd Ercson, who, for his hard heart, was tarred and feathered and carried in a cart by the women of Marblehead," they have found to their cost that in these later times, when men are qnick to resent any illegal, invasion of their rights, the law of self-defense holds good ngainst all popular violent Civilized society is put in jeopardy by open lawlessness oftener than by any possible form of immorality.

As IT is hard to find cool comfort in anything rjiit ice just now, it may be tome consolation to know that there aro hotter places than Galveston even in this -world. The Kansas City Jour- juzfof the iOth informs us that "all she afternoon, an almost suffocating lireeze of absolutely hot like that arising frcen a farnace, swept up from the south and southwest, with a force SKimetimes almost bordering on the terrible."

Hshment, in the creation of which they have invested no money and taken no risks and (jiperienced no sleepless, anxious nights. If the establishment burns down, the loss is not theirs; if it fails to yield a profit to its owners, or if a panic comes and it proves to be an elephant on the Lands of these owners, no vision of a sheriffs writ or of proceedings in bankruptcy disturbs their slumbers. Their money did not build i it is safe In a house and 'lot, or in th? bank around the corner. The effort, by means af trades unions, dictate to the owners of such an establishment what wages they shall pay. what the hours of labor shall be, and who shall work for them, is an exercise of tyranny totally without justification.

Strikes among workmen seem somewhat like the refusal of little children to eat their meals because something has offended them. England has suffered greatly from strikes within the past ten years. la some cases manufacturing establishments have been broken up, and Belgium, Franco and Prussia are now supplying the world with articles formerly produced in Great Britain. Tho papers tell us that the agricultural laborers, miners, workers in iron and steel in Birmingham and Sheffield, the stocking weavers of Leicester, and the cabmen of Margate, are all "on strike" at the present moment, to the serious detri mcnt of trade. But there seems to be a comic side to almost everything, and tre arc lold further that the drapers assistants in London have threatened to strike if they are not allowed to wtar mmst-uzfia Ludicrous as this is, the restriction of the young men in this case as great a restriction on personal liberty as any ot the other strikers complain of.

viclators of the peace, they at the sane time passed another law paying themselves eight dollars for every twijnty miles of travel ia coming from and returning to their homes, notwithstanding that twenty miles nwy have been traveled on the cars in one hour, and, perhaps, on a free pass. That paper says: Retrenchment and reform was what we all wanted, and still wunt, but these ought to havo been reached through justice and fairness. Was it just for the legislator, because he had the power to take eight dollars an hour, when the hour was all--and that without expense--that he gave to the State in return? Was it fair, while he wcis. doing this, to take away entirely the emoluments of the humbler officers without notice to them? We have been informed that Hon.

Several resolutions were adopted, two of which wure as follows: Besolccd, That this association reaffirms the declaration of voted at its annual meeting, that the proceeds of the the public lands should be set apart by Congress, under such conditions "as it may deem wise, as a perpetual fund for the support of public education in tho States aud Territories. "fittolral, That this association is earnestly in favor o': the establishment of a true Nationnl University." A committee of prominent delegates from different sections of the country was appointed to consider the project of a University. Richmond, was chosen for the next session of the association, and the convention adjourned. The Columbus (Ga.) Sun reports that tho ironworks of that city have perfected machines by which a superior quality of ice, in quantities limited only by the capacity of the apparatus, can be manufactured at a cost ranging per ton--the latter from 7un. to being the maximum.

"TheColumbus process" claims to be an improvement upon every other, in point of economy aud durability of its apparatus, and ia the inexpensiveness, rapidity and simplicity of the operation. Distilled water is used, and the ice is, therefore, purer than that cut from standing ponds. The machines are being built with a capacity of from 1000 to 2000 pounds per day, and at prices ranging from $6000 to They can be used in the winter at less expense than the cost of cutting and storing ice by the ordinary process, and are as advantageous in. northern as southern latitudes. When artificial ice was first produced in Francs, it cost $110 per ton, or cents per pouod.

The process patented in Europe in 1850, by Prot. Tmning, of Ohio, manufactured GOOD pounds of ice per day, at a cost of per ton, or i cent per pound. California.

New quicksilver mines wern discovered last week in the upper end of Pope Valley, Napa county. They are surface mines, yielding 75 to 90 cents of quicksilver to the pan of dirt. The Santa Cruz Enterprise says that Conrad Standet, the man who died so suddenly at Aptos recently, is said to have died of overjoy, brought on by the exceedingly generous gift by Claus Spreckels to the deceased of fifty acres of laud. A company was organized in San Francisco, a few weeks since, for the purpose of constructing a narrow gauge railroad from Winnemucci to Silver City, Idaho. The Great Western Quicksilver mine, Lake county, is paying per annum.

The Yoio UTail of Friday announces that Thomas Hunt are whipping 100 tons of wheat per day. The Grangers not shipping. Texas Free Press, of San Marcos, believes he could he prevailed upon "without any extravagant expenditure of effort to'accept a nomination." The Kaufman Star says: A. common farmer can not make a living by raising nothing for market but cotton. Try it who will, it will keep him eternally poor and his farm looking like a widow's home and his children ignorant and ragged.

It is therefore all-important that our people, and especially our farmers, learn to diversify their pursuits and productions. The Gonzales Inquirer says the completion of the San tonio Railroad to Harwood Station, ten miles north of Gonzales, is an event which will work a complete change in the carrying trade of Gonzales county. The Inquirer intimates that all the trade between Gonzales and the coast will pass over this road to Galveston. The WiUiamson County liecord exposes the dodge of the Louisville Medical College to secure gratuitous advertising at the expense of the poor, but liberal-hearted, publishers of the country. The Athens Courier is rather late in putting in its bid, but the following appears as its snake story for 1874: The greatest living curiosity in the way of a snake, can be seen at the Bizett Ferry, on the direct line of road leadina from Athens to Corsicana.

It is a combination of three species of the reptile family--has three heads--one like tb.it of the rattle, one isimilar to the whip or racer snake, and the other head that of the cott.on-raou;:h snake. The body of the wonder represents the veritable king snake, and is uight feet long 'by actual measurement. Its weight is forty-four pounds. Its owner and custodian has this snake-wonder of the nineteenth century inclosed in a large goods bos with a glass front. Our informant is a gentleman of unquestioned veracity; "but in order to believe this almost fabulous story, one must go to Bazett Ferry and be convinced.

The Texan Observer, of Iln.sk, Cherokee county, has the following appreciation of one of the State's ablest jurists and purest citizens: We publish a communication signed "Many 1 calling upon Judge R. S. Walker to become a candidate for Congress in this district. We indorse fully everything it contains as to the eminent fitness of Judge Walker for the position. There is no purer man living than he is, aud as a jurist, we think he has but few equate and no superiors.

He would adorn liny position, and we would be proud to have him represent us in Congress; but in our judgment, his rare attainments and ability as a lawyer are too valuable to the fitate to be absorbed, and in a measure lost, in a political office. Ho should be upon Bench of our State. As a district jcidge he is unexceptionable, and the district over which be presides would consent to be deprived of his services only npon the condition that he should be elevated to the Supreme Bench. We need thorough jurists, snch as Jadge Walktr is, far more than we do politicians, and we would like to lose so accomplished a lawyear to gain even, a first-class Congressman. In short, our opinion is, that Jndge Walker is too good a lawyer to be spoiled in making a Congressman.

The San Antonio Herald discourse.3 concerning bull fights, and says: "Many of our exchanges, in and out of 'the' State, are commenting on our bull fights very much in tho view of that celebrated Pharisee, who drew a between himself and the publican, so prejudicial to the latter. One papef has even gone so far as to assert' that we have the bull.fights on the open street." ECSK Henderson Times of the 8th says: On the 27th ot July a suspicious-looking individual registered his name at the.

Arlington House as On the night following, he bored into the stable of Senator Web. Flanagan and took possession of a fine mare that United 'States Senator. J. W. Flanagan had driven from his homo, while attending the District Conrt.

On the following morning the party was hotly pursued and captured in possession of of the mare near Daingerfield, in- Titun county, on tha second night: after stealing.

R. F. Cordua, of Galveston, who was a petty officer in the army of Gen. Albert Sidney Johnson, in the Department of Utah, in 1850, has handed us a copy of General Orders, by command of Lieutenant General WinCeld Scott, in which honorable mention is made of the fight of- 'which to-day is the anniversary, ancl in which Mr. Cordua was wounded.

The following is an extract from the document: August 14, Brigadier General Albert Johnson, commanding Department of Utah, ba.ving received information that a band of Northern Indians had robbed and murdered party of emigrants on the California road, detached Lieut. Gay, in command of Company G-, Second Dragoons, to take such steps as circumstances might require. The latter, learning that the Indians were not distant, resolved to attack them. After a rapid march of two hours with forty- two dragoons, Lient. Gay surprised the encampment of the.

Indians, and charged upon tbe main body, killing and wounding several. The" number of Indians is estimated at from one hundred and fifty, to two hundred warriors, of whom some twenty were killed twenty horses were raptured, nearly half being- American horses; four men severely and two slightly wounded, and nine horses wou.aded. Corporal R. P. Cordua is mentioned amoung the wounded.

The same document coniains an of Major (afterward General) Earl Van Dora's figbt with the Indians on the upper Brazos, which led to his promotion, in the Federal, afterward in the Confederate army.
