As the main object in Tiew to determine as to the advisability ol substituting jrranuo in the construction of the new c.pito), as lar as more inspection of the granite gota, a lartre number of members of the legislature were Bpecialiy invited, and cousiiier- ing the coldness of the day, the mvita-! tion was successful in attracting quite a large delegation of the law makers, as well as other prominent citizens oi i Austin.

A.J lihorub the en-; ergetic chief, it is undt-ra I piovided the transportation to liun.t r. and the luncheon at the qnirr.c from the gruiato already uie.i ia the capital was taKen, ana trie euterpnsiug citizens of Burnet furnished the hacks which the large party took from that City to the quarry and to MarbleFalls, pever-d miles beyond the quarry in the Colorado. The trip on tho cars, whether because the day was Sunday, or the members hna just read the line article in the morning Statksman as to the propriety of keeping good accounts in heaven, was characterized at the outset by singing arer, My Go J.to Thee," and other religious songs, such as "In the Sweet Bye and Eye," "liow firm a foundation," The singing was interspersed with anecdotes and recitations, in which latter Jiepreieutative Woods, of Kaufman, on account of his mimetic talent3 and line memory, was remarkably enter- I taining. Others were quite as good in anecdotes; and as this is a report of the proceedings it may be added that full justice was done in fortifying in more ways than one the inner man, oil as we as on the train where opportunity afforded, at Burnet, at the quarry, at the falls, and finally at the elegant supper which the citizens of Burnet had so acceptably provided at the 'Western hotel, which is kept by Mrs.
Watson and ton. A few ladies from Austin went as far as Burnet, and two of thom were enterprising enough to extend their trip to the quarry and falls. The falls were quite interesting and showed wonderful possibilities, acre alter acre of solid blue marble being in view, extending in parterres across the bed of the river, whoso waters poured through intervening spaces across the tablets in several different volumes, forming pretty waterfalls of moderate size and dtpth. The bed at the quarry from which the capitol granite was taken is almost a mountain in dimensions, being a mile or two wide, hundreds of feet high, and no one knows how deep below the surface of the earth. It is tremeudous, affording granite enough tor all future use perhaps in Texas, ft is nothing out granite as bald as an old mw's pate, without a single sign of hair in the way of vtjmK ii inn liniin ir.

And there are contiguous ledges of granite about it, and the writer was assnred besides that the whole surface of that immediate section of the county was based on like granite foundations begining but a few feet below the surtace of the ground. The rock taken out for the capitol had scarcely grazed the immense mass, r.f what shail it bo called, "Cap Mountain It looks like had been made to cut mere one side and the debris bottom of the cut seemed of itself to supply the ltepresentative Vood3 expressed it, looking from a commanding view, "There is granite enough in this mountain to arch the universe;" anrl as Col. Upton added, "To bridge the Atlantic." This is to be ui -lerstood, perhaps, with the reservation that the arch and the bridge could be spun out and sufficiently attenuated; or possibly litterally if the mountain extended straight through to the other side of the world. At all events it was the universal expression of opinion that Burnet has all the granite, and the finest kind Texas needs, and the "main question" for the legislature, as well as the owners of the quarry, and the people of Burnet to consider is how to get it into market, or make it accessible for the capitol and general building purposes in Austin and other cities of Texas.
Fifteen miles of railroad will have to be built, in which there will be only one very diflicult point to overcome. Col. Rhomberg is having the route surveyed, to make an estimate of the cost. But when that is done the question remains who is to build the road Citizens of Burnet and Travis counties, foreign capit i lists, or as has been suggested, the sta.e, which might do well to buy the quarries, build the road and quarry, the as employment for convict labor net aly to build the eapitol, but make such labor prodtable to the state in the future. The scenery along the road to the quarries and falls, was highly picturesque and interesting at many points, and was, of course, gre itly enjoyed by all.
The excursionists returned to Austin about o'clock at night, after having passed resolutions highly complimentary to Col. lthom- berg, Mr. Gardner and other oflicers of the A. N. road and the good citizens of Burnet for the hospital! ties of the occasion.
I'rominent among the excursionists, were Col. Swam, state comptroller, udge Lee, of the capitol commission, Capt. Baines, secretary of state, several state senators, a majority of the members of the house of representatives, Messrs. Tips, Crow, Von Rpsenburg, Dr. Cumminga and other citizens of Austin, quite a number of newspaper men and the following ladies: Mrs.

The officers seem determined to break up the business. Verily, the offender againtt Uncle Sam had better keep ont of this district. Divide he Bis To unties. Several of the leading newspapers in the state are advocating the divi sion of the counties of El Paso, Jfresi-deo, Crockett, Pecos and Tom Green into those of constitional size. Of the propriety of this action hy the legislature there is no question.
The advantages to the state and to the people by the division of th-3 Panhandle country are direct and well undei stood by all. Investments have been made, stock has been placed, colonies located and counties organized which would not have been done if the county lines had not been drawn. What has been demonstrated the Panhandle will prove true of the Jumbo counties if they are divided. In every instance, ot the counties above named, the county seats are off in one corner or on the border, where they are of no convenience to the people living several hundred miles away from them, and they have no more interest in them than if they were the capitals or otner states. In these so-called county seats are the county officers and a few other trentlemen interested in jobs of build- ing extravagant jails and courthouses, and they are the fathers of all the opposition to es tablishing new counties.
When new counties are made the counly officers lose a portion of their fets. If a new county is not able to organize, it is attached to one that is, for judi cial and land surveying This breaks the heart of the county officer and he writes his member of the legislature, "For God's sake don't favor any more new counties." xne county oflicers hire a lobbyist and send him to the capital witn instructions to say that the people of the proposed new counties have not enough taxable property to sustain a county organiza tion; that there are not enougn tree-holders to perform jury service; that the petitioners are premature in their Dravers. and much otner rot. ine as sumption of these county officers and courwiouse joouers 13 simpiy ure- some. There is no instance on record where a new county has not been able to support itself and assist in supporting the state.
Have the people no rights? In these large counties must they pay taxes to build fine courthouses and jails in one corner of a county only to have the county divided in two to repeat the same burden at the other extremity, a hundred mile3 or more removed, before they are permitted to build one for their own convenience? We think not. The only solution to avoid if urther annoyances to the people and future legislatures, and at the same time aid iu the development and progress of West is to make the division of the aforesaid large counties. Lesislator. Iht Hygiene of Live Flaateu The controversy as to keeping liye plants in a room at night continues to be carried on with vigor and acrimony, although most people have probably supposed that it was long since set at rest. At a medical con erence recently held in France It was demonstrated to the satisfaction of all the savants there present, that plants, as long aa they are plants only, may safely, and even with advantage, be admitted to the elystum from which they have so often been exiled.

Poultry on toe rm. We have said before, what we now I repeat, in brier, toat tne great, poultry interests of this country are most intimately connected with the business of the farmers of the United States, in a large majority. The "fancy," the amateurs, and small breeders (who, as a rule make up the contributors to our public fowl shows, of late years) compose but a moiety of the vast numbers of persons in this land who raise good poultry and large quantities or" it in every direction. To supply the current daily demand for this important article of food, thi3 assumption raus bi! correct, since we all know what enormous quantites of chickens, fowls, ducks, geese and tur keys are constantly required to sa.is-fy tho market demands for ordinary consumption in the United States. And surely this brunch of the business is conducted to no great extent, nor is this supply furnished by the class recogniztd aa modern "fowl fanciers." The farmers are the people who answer this call; and tii03e who have followed up the business in a regular but moderate way all their lives raising a few dozen or scores of birds perhaps, annually, in most cases are the class of "poultry breeders" v.
supply our people and our markets with this desirable commodity (and with the eggs we eat) in the aggre gate. That our "fanciers are a vrery use ful and netdtul adjunct in the pro tession must also De admitted; tor to this enterprising and now wide-spread cl iss of workers is the general interest universally indebted for the advancement in tae good quality of American poultry that has obtained a place among us in tne twenty year3, And tho keeping alive of this great aid in the cause is a matter of vast consequence to our future in this laudable work, and a3 all are aware, Yet to the farmers we must look tor this supply of chicken food in our mar kets. And to this class of breeders we conceive it a duty constantly to appeal in the coiumns of our publications which are devoted exclusively to the specialty of poultry production, and the best ways and means to effect re munerative results this direction, and advantageously. Farm Lira for Young Men. There is no occupation so grand, so noble, and that which makes one so independent as farming It gives you an opportunity tor mental culture during the winter, and physical strength during the summer.
It is a home where good morals can be enter tained, without those allurements which are always predominant city life. He who tills the soil is engaged in an honorable occupation. Agriculture is the greatest among the arts, for it is first in supplying our necessities; it favors and strengthens population; it creates and maintains manufactures; give employment to navigation and materials to commerce. It is also the strongest bond of well regulated so ciety, the surest basis or internal peace, and natural associate of good morals. So the young man who desires to leave the farm and go out into the wide world for himself, perhaps to some far off city, or some spot on his native land, where he imagines there will be a p.tradise open tor nim, sucn a step in life should be well consid ered before taken.
It is a good thing to fit yourself for a lawyer, a doctor or a minister, but it is a better thing to know that you can be one. Young men, favored with every opportunity for enjoy ment at home, and not over worked, imagine that they can do better than to guide the ox, or to turn the stubborn glebe. And, with the merest trifle of consideration, the hands are (from the implements of agriculture and given to the otlice or the shop work of the city. And thus thousands 01 young men are utterly ruined. If thev would only stop ana trunk, "What can I make of myself Theiuuestion, "To what is my ability mostly adapted then they might go forward into lire's journey with a better prospoct of success.
"Ever remember, writes lioid- thwait, "that for health and substantial wealth, for rare opportunities for elf-improvement, tor long life and real independence, farming is the best business in the world." iiatase. It is within the bounds of reason to estimate that one lively rat in the barn or corn crib will eat or destroy one bushel of grain in twelve months. No doubt two busneis would be nearer the truth, but let it be one bushel per year to eaca rat. Then, it there are on the average through tne year only twenty rats in the barn, the loss in grain irorn wis cause is no less than twenty bushels, oi" five bar rels. A pretty heavy per cent, on, say, thirty, fifty, or even seventy-five barrels or corn, la some cases tne ratasre is not so much as this, in many others it is, no doubt, much more.
Is not this enough to cause tarmers to stop and think Can they afford to pay such a heavy titne ior any sua cause? We trow not. Let us see if there is any remedy. Cats and terrier dogs will destroy great numbers of rats, if they are al lowed ingress into the Duiiamgs infested with them. But this affords only partial relief, for the creatures find hidinar places where dog or cat cannot'get at them. Poison will kill many, but this is very objectionable on account of the disgusting odor from the dead carcasses lying about the farm.
Evidently, the best way to circum vent Mr. Rat is to build rat proof corn cribs. It is not a difficult matter to do this, and suitable house3 may be constructed at trifling cost. The following is as good a plan as any that we have seen. For the majority of one and two- team farms, a crib fourteen by sixteen, seven feet in the clear, is quite large enough.
Erect this house well away from any other house, tree, or other object that a rat can use to get upou or in the house. 1'iant six strong posts of a timber that lasts well. Invert as many cup tins or baking-pans on these posts, and lay on the sills, and construct the crib in the usual way. mere 13 now no way for a rat to enter the crib, and as this extends so rar over tne posts that the rat cannot crawl over, he has to remain outside. Take care that no piece of timber is left standing aarainst the crib to offer the rat a way to set in.
This is tne secret, tjare and visrilance will keep them out. Rural Messenger. A Cow's Kations. The Maine Agricultural -College farm has been experimenting on the food for milch cows, and the conclusion reached is that the best average ration is 20 pounds of hay, 3 pounds of bran, 3 pounds of cotton-seed meal and 3 Dounds of Indian meal. It is calculated that on this feed butter will cost 15 cents a nound.
reckoning hav at $10 a ton This sort of figuring may do in Maine, but it would make bad speculation for farmers where hay is worth 820 a ton. We should prefer to leave out the cotton-seed meal if we were mat ing butter. But with hay at S20 a ton, which it will average in this vicinitv. the Maine ration would cost as follows: Cents Hav, 20 pounds 20 Bran. 3 pounds 2.
Cotton-seed, 3 pouu 4. forn ineal, 3 4 Total In order to maka a cow pay expen ses she must make rising a pound a dav ofirood butter, and the -manure and Bkim-milk and buttermilk must pay for the labor. But a pound-a-day cow is more than an average animal, We have quoted the grain at about the nresent rulins price, which are certainly not. more than the average. J-t stfrns to us thiit tSe Maine ration fr dairy uses be improved by eutting down amount of hay and addme shcrta and corn meal.

But oaiehow the- farmer contrives to Make a living and something more. We wish some of our who read this article would write us their ideas of what, a fair average ration is and what it cost to make Courier. Plenrs-Paamonia Among Hogs.
Rural World. The I033 by the hog disease in Washington. Burt and Dodge counties-S ebratka, will aggregate 700,000. It is impossible to describe on paper the ravages of the plague. The heg business, which been the chief industry in Eastern Nebraska, is ruined.
Veterinarians now agree that the disease is cholera. The lungs in dead animals i are always badly inflamed, and there are other signs of pieuro-pneumonia. In addition to the symptoms noticed in dispatches there is a tiling off in flesh, loss of appetite, a bad cough and droppings almost coal black in color. The universal custom of Xe- braska hog raisers is to turn their onmo iuiu i Lie uamo yams, auu waive them pick their food out of the fifth. It if thought this induces the disease, as hog3 that are kept in pens or clean itures, and fed liberally on suitable food, are not affected.
Pieuro-pneumonia in the above is noticeable. The paragraph is from the Drovers' News or Kansas City. "The lungs la dead animals are always inflamed, and tht re are other signs of pleuro pneumonia." 1st dot so? Is not our brother a little too previous Shall we use an expression more forcible than polite and say "damn your pieuro-pneumonia Heretofore men who have had hogs die have attributed it to cholera, when it was the merest and the sheerest neglect and the most inhuman treatment. Now, the hogs have the pleuro pneumonia, and why? Will the breeders and the feeders answer As to pieuro-pneumonia in the hogs. Fudge! Treatment for Scratches.
"I have," writes W. II. H. to the American Field, of Chicago, "a bright bay carriage mare, weighing over one thousand pounds, with white hind feet, which seems to be in perfect health, except that she is slightly troubled with what are called scratches, and every morning the hind lees are somewhat swollen or stocked. This swelling almost en tirely disappears after half aa hours' drive.
Within the past three days I have noticed that she appears to have the scratches, or a crack with a siierht discharge in her right fore foot, but no swelling. What is the best treatment for her Is she liable to get en tirely well, or grow worse? She shows no lameness and is kept in a first-class livery where she has excel lent care. Is it best to keep her legs losely clipped, or allow the hair on chem to remain long To this, Dr. N. Rowe, the editor, re plies: The trouble came from a humor in the blood with the mud and water the exciting cause.
Clip the hair off; poultice to remove fever, then dress with iodine one drachm, lard two ounces, mix, rub a little well twice adav. Give internally a ball of ale es flVd drachms, ginger one drachm, gen tian root two drachms, mix. Do not allow the legs to be washed on coming in from driving, but have them rubbed down with a wisp of straw and then cleaned well with a good brush when dry. Milk for Chickens. An old poultry raiser, who believes in milk for fowl3.
says: "It is both meat and drink. Some of the finest chickens I ever saw were raised upon the free use of milk with their food Hens lay as well or better when furnished with this than any other known article of food offered them." Another poultry-raiser says "A neighbor of ours whose hens, to our exasperation, kept laying on when eggs were forty-five cents a dozen, while ours persistently laid off durinar the same season, on being questioned revealed the fact that his had a pail of skimmed, perhaps clabbered, milk each day, and no otner drink. On comparing notes we each found that our management of our fowls was always exactly alike with this single difference a difference that put many a dollar to the credit side of his ledger, while our own was left blank during the same period; and this thing had been going on for years, with the result always in favor of a milk diet." Sour milk, sweet "clabbered" milk, buttermilk, are all excellent for every sort of poultry, at all ages, and whoever is situated so as to command a good supply, Is favored with one of tho elements of success in keeping fowls in thrift. It is especially valu able to give to poultry kept shut up, as it is nearly ebuivalent to insect forage. VIVISECTION.
Profeeaor Tyadall's Views. in a letter to the London Times, Professor Ty ndall writes Would you permit a man who, as far as his own treatment of animals is concerned, might claim the friendship of the poet Cowper, to add a word to the discussion on surgery and vivisection which has been for some time going on in ou colu mns Your readers are prob-ably in part aware of the marvelous success ot Pasteur a experiments on what he calls "the attenuation of virut Tnese experiments have en abled him to reduce the virulence of ital that when intro duced into the animal body, though they may produce malaise, they do not produce death, the animal vaccinated with this mild virus being subsequently proof against the ccn-tagium in its most deadly form. I have recently had occasion to lock over the proof sheets of a small work entitled Jf asteur, nis ljite and Labors," now on the point of publication by Longman Co. Confining myself to a singls specimen of the results recorded in this book, I think that upon it an argument may be founded that has some bearing on the discussion above referred to. In the course of his inquiries Pas teur laid hold of the murderous viru3 of pleuic fever and succeeded in ren dering it not only harmless to life, but a sure protection against tne as saults of -the disease.
It was soon noised abroad among the sheep and cattle breeders of France that he had overcome this contagion. In many parts ot the country the disorder was very deadly. He confined himself for a time to what might be called laboratory experiments, but believing that a principle which had proved true in small things would also prove true In large, he had the boldness to accept an invitation from the president of the agricultural society of ilelun to make an exgri- ment publicly on what might be called an agricultural scale. He had placed at his disposal a flock of sheep, which he divided into two groups. The members of one group were all vaccinated with the "atten uated" virus of splenic fever, while the members of the other group were left unvaccinated.
A number of cow3 were siuiilarily treated. The question to be dacidsd was, would tie mild virus answer as a protec tive Experiment alone could answer this question. Fourteen days subsequent to the first inoculation all tne bh'ep and all the cows vaccinated and unvaccinated, were inoculated with highly virulent virus. Three lays at ter wards, more than 200 persons, in cluding journalists, farmers, lawyers and public men assembled to witness the result. Pasteur is capable of elation, and he must have felt elated at the shout of admiration which hailed the success of his experiment.
Of twenty-five sheep inoculated with vir ulent virus, but unprotected by vac cination, twenty-one were already dead, while the remaining four were dying. The twenty-five vaccinate sheep, which had also received the deadly virus into their blood, were in "full tieaita and traietT." The un- cows showed tumors at tne place ot inoculation, and were so prostrate with fever as tr he nnable to eat. The vaccinated cows were auite well. Bhowing no tamors, no not even a perceptible rise oi temperature. Pasteur was soon overwhelmed with applications for this "benign" vaccine.
At the end of 1881 ciose to animals had been vac- cinated, while in 1883 thi number rose to nearly sou.utu Splenic fever, or malignant pustule, is a very loathsome, disease and the sufferings of animals dying from it are very great. An account of the symptoms which precede death would be by no means pleasant reading. Some years nso I visited the laboratory of the Ecole Normale, and was shown there by A'asteur himselt the formidable organ- ism with wnich he was then cccu piea. it was curious to reflect now a thing so mean could exercise such deadly pnwer over man brute. Pasteur and his assistants had to be wary in derding with the organism, for a single one of its invisible spores, getting into the blood through a scratch on the hand, might prove fatal.
In a room adjacent to the laboratory stood a large cae containing guinea pig3 and rabbits, some spngntiy anu munenmg their food, some drowsy and languid, some in their last sgony and some 'in the rigor of death. It was subsequent to those experiments that Pasteur operated upon larger animals, subjecting them to the "cruelties' and the "tortures" here described. Imagine a certain tenderhearted Bishop with whose kindly feelings I have every sympathy entring the laboratory of Pasteur and seeing him sow this malady among hss unprotected victims. What would the Bishop have done under tkese circ*mstances Were it in his power would he not have invoked the arm cf the law to stay such damning cruelty? Most assuredly he would. And yet in doing so he would "have affixed the brand of cruelty upon himself.
In lieu of the few animals saved from the operations of the man of teience he would have handed over tons of thousands of the same animals of the ravages of splenic fever. The Lore of LlUls Langtry. IcW York Citizen. The failure of Mrs. Langtry in London will carry her quickly back here, where she has just been puichasihg a norae cn xnirteentn street, i ne story of her life's loves ha3 never been truly told.
When she came," a beau- tirui young oride, to Jondon it was her fortune to tit for an artist to vi studio Prince Leopold was a constant visitor. He met her; was struck with her if not at first striking yet peculiarly classic beauty, wnich grows on you the more you look, and presented her to his brother, the Prince of Wales, who was fascinated from the flrst. it is the custom in society in London when the aprince accepts an invitatien to send him a card and ask him to affix the names of any he might desire to meet him. Mrs. Langtry 's was always affixed.
She became the vogue. She was for the time the dream of the poet and the painter. The Duke of Sutherland said when here that one night at a great ball at Stafford House, as she entered and walked down the hall alone, simply dressed in white, there was a pause in the music and dance to gaze on her superb loveliness. And so her love's current ran smoothly along until one of those fancies which will come to women ran in to break it. She had met iu society Sir George Chetwynd, loved him, as Camille says, and felt he loved her.
There are many wno may remember the story of how the beautiful Lady Florence Paget, on the morning of her intended wedding with the wealthy Mr. Henry Chaplin, queitly at an early hour got into her brougham, drove to a secluded church, and there met and married the young Marquis of Hastings. On his death she became the wife of Chetwynd. She was seized while still young with paralysis. She took to religion when she lost the power to sin, and went through a course of ritualistic curates.
Her husband, left the power of sinning, continued to sin, and found that happiness, fled from curates, Langtry, "dwelt with thee." Society could not forgive in a baronet what it had pardoned in a prmce, threw up its hands and eyes. Mrs. Langtry found no more her accustomed place on the prince's ticket, and quietly retired. The place of her retirement (near Twickenham) wa not far from Mr. Labouchere's villa of St.
Annes. His gentle heart wis touched by her woman sorrow, He advised her to seek solace on the stage, the forlorn hope of the afflicted female, and set his wife a well-trained actress, Henrietta Hodgson to coach her. The result- she came here and was seen and conquered. The admiring gaze of Mr. Frederick Gebhard fell on and followed her.
But accustomed to such admiration, she merely regarded his as but one more scalp on her well- stocked belt. Sir George Chetwynd had agreed to follow her and accompany her round th8 states; and had actually taken his room on board the Bothnia, and gone as far a3 Liverpool with the just deceased iiiari or Ayies- ford, his companion to be, when so many messages and so many apparent proofs of her faithlessness came crowding on him, that he returned home. Lord Aylesford left alone. Mr. Gebhard, who had, with an assertion of heroic self-sacrifice at the shrine of public feeling, left her at St.
Louis, really to be cut of the way when Chetwynd came, when Chetwynd did not come, re turned to her side and has remained there. Indifference has grown into love. She is about to seek a divorce, and they will probably be married in the autumn. They are both wealthy. She is beautiful and very amiable, agreeable and gentle.

Indeed we believe there are very few persons of ordinary intellectual faculties who are not capable of schooling themselves to a blithe demeanor of cultivating the spirit and the fortitude to comfort themselves cheerily among their fel low men. Of course, in the hour of bereavement or of humiliation. when the heart-strings are torn and the spirit bowed down in anguish, aught but a sad aspect would be looked upon as frivolity; but to continually mope for oae own mistortunes to bewail one's own disappointments and burdens, utterly oelivious of the sorrows of others is as offensive as to give rein to hilarity in the presence of others' grief, a sin of which no one with self-respect would be guilty.

Of course we accepted this statement in good faith and extended him a hearty welcome.

This is the proper caper in Washington it one would oe considered a statesman. A story is going the rounds of the press that JLaooucnere having assea his friend Bret iiarte to write a poem for his paper, Harte, disguised as a tramp, tried vainly to sell the poem to Labouchere, who would not have it at any price. This is a very good story, and, while probably not true, very easily mignt oe, and upsets tne old-time theory that "a rose by any other name," etc. Near the village of Richmond, lives David Whitner, one of the three men who testified on oath that they beheld the anzel of the Lord bring down the plates from which the book of Mormon was written, and deliver them into the hands of Joseph Smith, the Mormon prophet, and it was in Whitner's keeping that this original manuscript remained for several years.

All the morning papers have columns bor dered with black, as a tok( a of the grief which is universally ielt over Gordons fate. Some of the papers confine the mourning emblems to tho editorial page, but most ot them have column rules reversed on all pages.
Tha News says: "The age oi chivalry is revived again in Gordon's history, and the whole world thrills with passionate grief at this Christian warrior's The Standard alone refuses to believe Gordon is dead, and clings to the shadow of a hope that he may be a prisoner or may have escaped south.

A committee from the ranks entered the office to demand relief for the people they rep resented. They wanted immediate employment on the construction of municipal works, which they said were needed for the public good. The official board refused the committee, and the crowd became a howling mob.

BRITISH ATTACK THE ENEMT. London, February 12. Up to the middle of the night Wednesday the government had no official advice connrming tne report oi uen. uor don's death. European newspapers without exception deplore the death of Gen.
Gordon as an international calamity. The London Standard correspon dent, with Gen. Earls column, sends the following dispatch: Dulka Island, Tuesday The British troops advanced to attack the enemy, who held a strong position on the hills. After some fighting the enemy were completely surrounded Finding it impossible to dislodge the rebels from their fortified position, Gen. Earle ordered the troops charge.
Gen. Earle was killed while leading the attack. The Black watch regiment captured the position i at the point of the bayonet, the cavalry taking possession. Gen. Brackenburg, upon the fall of Gen.
Earle, assumed command and ordered the remaining positions to be stormed. The troops acted promptly In a gallant attack, and soon secured the enemy's position. The fight lasted five hours. There was great slaughter among the enemy. Those who survived escaped by swimming the river.
The British force consisted'of the Blaek Watch and South Stafford regiments, a squadron of hussars, two guns, the Egyptian artillery, Egyptian camel corps and a section of the hospital corps. The troops at once set to work to form a "zoreba." In the mean- units tho f-Lemy lired several shots i were posted. Everything passed quietly during the night. Tuesday morning the troops formed and advanced to the enemy's position, marching in two parallel columns. The South Stafford rpo-inint-.
nn.l torn guns occupied the grounds directly ia i oi me enemy to attract tneir at- itention. At a dock our guns opened riue attack ior some time a desul tory lire was maintained. Meantime the main Uxiy of our troops, advan cing steauily over almost impractica uie grjunu, pusn'ug the enemy before them and seizing successive riuge, determined to make a rush. I he forward movement continued until the advance troops reached the ngat rear of the enemy, which rested ou the river. This completed the movement whereby the rebels were surrounded.
The enemy's position was a very strong one; it was on a rocky, broken ground and strengthened by loophokd walls, from wnich they maintained a heavy, well-direct- eu ure. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. London, February 12. Another account of the death of Gen. Earle, dated Korti, says: Gen.
Earle was killed in the action of Tuesday. The tight occurred near the Nile, a few miles above Dulka island. The Arabs had fortified the pass and had built a small fort ou the Iwft bank of the river. When Gen. Earle's forces reached the pass they were subjected to a heavy fire from field guns, which the Arabs had placed in a commanding position.
Gen. Earle had no artillery and commanded the troops to charge. It was more of a scramble than a charge. But the Arabs were driven from the heights at the point of the bayonet and fell back slowly toward the river. All that then remained to be captured was the little fort on the river bank.
As the British column advanced it was met by a steady fire from behind the sand and wall-ings, whick composed the Arab fort, and many men of the attacking party were killed. Gen. Earl again ordered aaother charge and put himself at the head of the column. He was killed during this charge. The fort was ultimately captured, but at a terrible cost.
In addition to Gen Earle, three officers and eight men were killed and thirty-hve men wounded. v-- BRAKENBUR REPORT. 7 London, February 12. Gen WoN seley telegraphs that Gen. Brackenburg reports from Dulka island, about seventy miles above Merowl, that Earle's attack was well planned and gallantly executed.
It is expected the effect will be to open the way to Berber without further fighting. The rebels a high ridge on a razor-backed hill. Six companies of the Black-watch and six companies of the Stafford regiment marched around the high ridge of hills entirely turning the enemy's position, which was then attacked from the rear. The enemy was not in great point of numbers.but his position was very strong and difficult of access. They fought with the most determined bravery.
Gen. Earle was among the foremost in the attack, and his fall was. the cause of deep lament from every officer and man in the force. He was killed on the summit of the hills behind which the enemy was posted. At almost the same time Lieut.
Col.Eyre was killed. The camp was captured by the 19th Hussars. The English success was complete. Ten standards were among the spoils of victory. The enemy's dead are lying thick among the rocks and in the open fields where, when they iounu tnemseives surrounded, they made a desperate effort to rush through the English column In which rush but few escaped.
The English losses consist of Gen. Earle, Col. Eyre, Col. Caventry, and nine men of the rank and file killed. Four officers and twenty-one men were wounded.
The English intended to continue the advance along the river by daylight Wednesday to carry out Gen. Wolseley's Instructions to Earle. The above are the points of the official reports communicated to Gen. Wolseley by Col. Brackenburg, dated Dulka Island, about seventy miles above Merawi.
