We learn fromthe San Saba ATeios some interesting particu lars regarding the 'wholesale slaughter of the bison (buffalo) on" the plains. It .13 estimated that at least two thou-and per sons are now encamped on Texas soil for the sole purpose of slaughtering the bison. 'These men have reduced the-limit to a system, and are as thoroughly organized 'as a 'well drilled army. -The plan is to surround the whole buffalo range, ' which is done by sending oat parties hundreds of miles from the set tlements and completely encir cling their prey, thus cutting off the retreat. Regular hunter's supply stores have been estab lislietl at convenient localities. The hunt is kept up during the entire year. The lifJes are scut to market some of the meat is cured and sold, though the prin cipal part is thrown away. The unmberkilled aniruallyamoants to hundreds of thousands.

Hubbard in regard to certain buiuess transactions Avitb J, H. Burnett & Co , and the temporary lease of the pen itentiary to Barn t fe Kilpat rlck. It says that eo far as the evidence adduced goes, the Gov ernor stands acquitted of the charge. His dealings with ilessrs. Burnett & Co., csteud back six yearc, and are exclu sively of a private,, commercial character. From the time the time the charge was first made, the Basxee has placed no reli ance in it, .regarding it as a mere bugaboo. This, without any regard to the possibility ot Gov. Hubbard being a candi date for re-election. There is plenty of time between now and the next electiou to select a can didate. Internal Kcrenne. It is rumored that the sub committee of the ways and means committee will report to the whole committee a proposition toreimposo an income tax, the -object being to reduce the to bacco and one or two other in ternal taxed. The argutnent in favor ot the income tax is that iheE-istcnijSeaboard and middle States now pay far less internal revenue 'tax than the Northern and Southern middle States; that property, and production are over-taxed in the latter compar ed with with the former. The object is to reach the holders of government bonds, the most of whom are residents of the East. It is thought that if such a bill passes it will be laid specifically tor one year, leaving it with the next Congress to continne it. The Governor has ordered the arrest of the Texas troops guard at EI Paso, charged with kil'ing the prisoner in their charge. Gen. Hatch has asked that Major Jones;, of the Ran gers, be sent to El Faso. BB,ENHAM, WASHINGTON COUNTY, TEXAS. FETOAX JANi TltC TOOK fAKX. As appears by the proceed ings of the County ' CoUimis Monera' Couit ejsewhere, they have by a- mnjiiri'y decided to rescind the .order purchasing a county or poor farm. Just bow this action was bronght about we are not at this writing advis ed, neither do we know what ac tion is contemplated by the learned "commissioners .who vo ted to rescind. One thing how ever is patent, that is it c"sts the coujity nearly 40i)0 pir year to partially maintain the paupers, that being the amount ot 6crip doled out to them in :6inal installments. --Msinyof the recipients of ' the county's bounty are able to do at least some work by which they could be made to partially if tint wholly' to snpport themselves. To our idea the purchase of a county farm involved no risk, the property would not be likely to deteriorate in value and we feel satisfied that thenuinber of paupers on the roll would have been largely decreased as' many of them would have devised ways and means to maintain themselves, when it came to the last resort going to the county farm. If, after a yeir's experi ence, it should have been found that the system was a failure, it could then be abandoned, aud the property refold aLboutthe original cost, perhapsNor more. In Missouri, and several other States, the system of maintain ing paupers 011 county or poor farms has been in operation for many years, and has been found to work well and satisfactorily. ELEASo! The facts about the EI Paso invasion are thus summed up by the San .Antonio mispress: The "mob originated in Mexi co ; was led bv a .Mexican and drilled by a .Mexican officer and was a Mexican mob. The ob ject of the mob was to accom plish the death ot Judge How ard, who held certain .salt lakes in Texas, in compliance with the laws of Texas who was the legal owner of the salt, and who had given the Mexicans no caiite for complaint, except that he asked the payment of forty cents a "bushel for it. The at tempt to make out that the mob was from this side of the river becomes very ridiculous when the fact U made known that a hundred bushels of salt were used in Mexico to one on this side of the river. The logical deduc tion from articles in various 'Nbrt'ieru papers is, that the Mexicant were, justified In tak ing possession of American ter ritory and murdering Ameri can citizens because Howard, an American citizen, had the audacity to mainlian his legal rights in his own country. This isTthe only provocation the Mex icans have had. CnANDLEis's letter., caused gieat excitement in political circles in Washington. More extracts are given. As soon as Hayes was safe Packard and Chamberlian were notified by Matthews and Evarts'to get ont. Chambcrlaiu was summoned to Washington and told that he must surrender. He demurred; Hayes hesitated, bnt Hampton demanded a compliance with the contract. Matthews was sent for, came from Ohio, and within twenty-four hours Cham berlain was a dead cock in the pit. From all of which it ap- Ecars that Chandler and hie rother rascals are the first to complain. Brother Beeciieu has again been yanked up before the courts. One Wright sues him tor cool 510,000 damages and also for another $10,000 allegu-1 to have been paid him for a work entitled "The Life ot Chrit." It is claimed that Beecher has not finished the same according to contract. Gano's command held its re unio.n at Dallas on Christmas day. Addrc3e3 were made by Gen. Gano, Ge'n. S. B. Bnckne-, Gen. W.

About forty of the Haven colonists havo arrived at San Antonio. . A fire broke out at McDade on Thursday morniug destroying seven hoiiaCs? The S. A.

Cunningham, the new lessee of tbe Penitentiary, takes charge on the 1st of Jan uary. A San Antonio gamin cleared 9.10 selling newspaper 'and shining 'era up on Christ mas day. The Austin State Gazette has been reduced to a six col- umn paper, and is issued in the alternoon. J. C. Herman, formerly an employe of the Central rail way, w:is found dead in his bed at Millicau. An escaped convict and a very b id negro were captnred it Millic'.u, with 6tolen horse trom Bryan. They were juggnd. A brakeman, named Doug las, formerly a resident of Hous ton, was killed while coupling cars at Llearne on last Saturday. Houston must be very dull or very moral. On Friday morning only only one case was mustered np before the Recor der. Judge McCulloch, one cf tho land swindlers, "has witl -drawn his appeal and was sen tenced to six years labor in the .peniteptiary. The Houston Telegram says tin re was so much drunk enness among the negioes on Christmas that the white folks should hereafter keep sober. Richard McMinn, aged 80. and "Mrs. Bays, aged 82, were lately married in the town of Goliad. They are old enough to know what they are about. A Dallas book-keeper, who had been fighting the tiger, em bezzled $300;' was caught at it; disgorged and was dishonorably discharged by his employers. They have some wayward colored gentlemen in Houston, as well as elsewhere. One was caught on Christmas eve steal ing railway picks from the depot. Brady City, McCulloch county, is biz enough for a newspaper, and is improving and is improving all the time, nero is a chance for some adventurous newspaper man. In a few months San An tonio will be provided with wa terworks, after which it is fair to presume there will be a de cline in the prices of beer and bug jnice. A man was killed in Llano county, who, it was supposed, was riding a stolen horse. In vestigation proved that the man was not a thiol, but was riding his own horse. John Potts, alia3 Pegging Awl, passed through SanS&ba, in charge of a sheriff, en route for McCulloch comity. He was arrested in Waco on a charge of cattle stealing. There are one hundred and one aspirants tor the office of Mayor of Victoria, and every one of them expects to glide into office without advertising that he is a candidate. We learn from the Hemp stead Messenger that the bodies of JMr. and Mrs. O. G. Dibble, who were drowned in Cedar creek, Waller county, on Wed nesday last, have been found. The Corpus Christi and La redo railway has been completed to Banquette, forty miles from Corpus. A town has been laid o!F; a postoffice opened and sev eral business houses are in course of construction. 1 1 iu-.'..ras; Mexico's new rower. The St, lonis Ikniibliaai. in mentioning the fact reported y Get. Ord, that the Moxic troops joined American Jri in arec ntchascjiUergrease who had sought rettige on icanoil, says: Tliij dct proves a willingn ou theFpart ot the Mexican ornment to co-operareln" suppression of these fr rauB Heretofore it lias been generally believed and not without rea son that the Diaz administra.- tion hid neither the desire , nor uhiiitv to m.iiuirfl its own mnnc -.or assi-t ns in- fnanaawJ thcin : u sum 1, nine xias, iijio uis pre decessors, was disposed to wink Jirriicleplxdatioiis on the BJp Grande bordcrruioruvirfvm.f-'i Mexican forces mav unite in flfel punishment ot border brigands, n matter from which side of river they come. Six mouths ot this active co-opcratiou in be half ot peace and good order", will give our Texan lronticr the quiet it has so long needed. The recognition ef the Diaz government by the United States would probably put the Mexican government in a better condition to enforce order on the Rio Grande frontier ; it at all events could make matters no worso and would not materialry change the status of the two governments. It is evident that it the military authorities on both sides ot the river act in ac cord, raiding can be brought to a summary close. The Eastern Yfar.- Bucharest dispatches report terrible sufleriug among the Russian an3 Roumanian sol- diers and Turkish prisoners on the roaI to Bucharest during the snow storm. A London special, received in New York, says, in English Military circles war is considered almost inevitable. .Arrange ments are completed, and regi ments allotted for an army of 80,000 men, and steps already taken towards tho formation of a nucleus for a reserve army. Profound uneasiness prevails, and there is great depression in trade and finance. The North German Gazette, the official or gan of Germany, says, "regard ing intervention, Russia, in the fulfillment of her mission, can scarcely be stopped, even by the cleverest moves on the political chess board." Should England take a hand in the Eastern war, the proba bility is that all of Europe will become involved in it before a settlement is reached. -te . The Wae Department has nothing new from the Rio Grande. The presence of the troops has a salutary influence in preserving peace. Two of the men killed by the troops were resisting. The depart ment, depends on the discretion of the officers in Texas to deal with the Governor of Texas, un less something of an extraordin ary or startling nature should occur. It is firmly believed that the troops will be able to keep order and that the Mexican gov ernment will co-operate to that end. Correspondence received at the Military Headquarters at Chicago from El Paso, says only five rioters were identified as Mexicans, and it is thought only about a dozen were from the other Bide. The rioters were 330 strong and were accompan ied by 150 thieves. The Mexi can authorities have posted no tices on both sides of the river, warning Mexican citizens against participaitng in tho trouble. This, it must be borne in mind, is an army view ot the trouble. TnE Kew York Jfvening JPost says in regard to the latest pei formance of Win, E. Chandler that ic is ono which even the other Chandler (old Ziek) would be ashamed ot. Anything thit old Zack Chandler would be ashamed ot, certainly must be very, very bad. - A Tnrcophile is one who feefs for Turkey.

After six days spent in discussing questions of law, the Rof.hse.hiTd case was continued till the next term. The Marshal Herald justly says : It may bo said with truth, that no prisoner has been inori ably defended or more ably prosecuted. We haveno com mentary to make, except' this that it is to be regretted that such trials are delayed from term to term, instead of being forced to an early issue. It is a defect confined not alone to Texas, bin. to the execution of the criminal law generally, and which the wisdom ot legislation should be employed to change.
