Adjutant general Jones thinks that the removal of TJmled States troops from Texas to fight the TJtes IP ill not necessarily increase the state troops for the protection of the frontier.

He says' that ou the southern Kio Grande Hall's company will be sufficient, and tliat the company is not urgently needed just now in the interior where it has been operating, and that in the Fanhnndle and northwestern frontier, Indians from the reservation, hunting there for some time back, have now disappeared; but Lieut. Baylor, in the El Paso country, is menaced with Indians from the reservatiou and from Mexico, and has an unruly local population CO deal with, and requires more ranger's to do any effective service. IS OITOER. Just before, and for several duys since, the laws went into effect reserving for location the greater part of our public domain, the demjtad'throcigh Texas for land certificates coiild not be supplied. These certificates were wanted for location before Uie reservation should go into effect.

A great many certificates had been sold out of the and the home supply was exhausted in a few days. No one believes that bona- lide surveys were made aod bonu-flde locations of these ccnificates were made upon such surveys. It is altogether improbable facts will evf tie reached, but the general idcn, amounting to a moral cerlaintj-, is that at two or three places in northwestern and western Texas these cer- were located upon mythical surveys from plats whicb the plotters had figured out with sufficient distinctness and plausibility to hold the lands' until actual surveys can be made. Those who have been engaged in tliis transaction cite us to precedents which seem to justify it, but the trouble is that Che precedents in question have never been legally questioned, and therefore arc not legally established. I Ham had been victed of simulating various buried land owners in jrtier to steal their sleeping lands, be would, according to this reasoning, have established a precedent that would have justified future enterprising laod-thieves in similar practices.

This locating business on the wholesale plan, dealing in. futures," as it' were, is very much like the inception of same business ia Texas, when a league surveyed for original heflris of families by a was given six hours to ride aroaml the tract, scattering bits of paper to mark the boundaries, ihe. fastest horse and rider getting the most land. The land sys- teia ends where it began--in frsad, and "all the long time from beginning to end is characterized by tread, forgery and prodigality. If the legislative land fraud committee will give iheir attention to this matter, and give Ham a rest, it is likely they may develop some useful infoiTnatiou for their report to Ihe next legislature.

account of the abundant outlet, the fine pisturage, the almost unlimited supply of good running water, the diversified character of the soil, the mildness of our winters, and the ample protection afforded to sheep in the winter by occnsional thickets and low timber aud gorges among oar bills. Though the cattle in some parts of the county are already being by the sheep, there is suil room for many times more of both, if we are any judge of the quantity of grass necessary to sustain a given number of animals. We are informed that there are sheep iii of Twin mountains alone. Other parts of the county have small herds. JEFFETISOX.
