eCharles Deluionieo, proprietor ot ther“
well known Delmouico restauraut in New'
Turk city, left home lor a short walk, on
it ho sth iust , and did not return. His
family became alarmed at bis absence and
“began search for him. Iu the search for
,him it was though* that he was drowned
in the Newark sewer canal, also in a New
York sewer, and search made for him u*
ibotl- places. Last Tuesday his body was
found in the woods ot Orange Mountain,
New Jersey, near the summer residence ot
-Geo. McClellan. Ilis ftiends suspected
for a long time that his mind was diseased,
lie never neglected his business, however, I
und the popularity of the restaurant grew j
under Itis management. He is supposed j
to have wandered aimlessly about, suffetiug
from cold, and to have walked off Irom the
Jhighway, during a heavy storm ou Sun

from exposure.

Ltiwletisness in Texas.
The Texas Legislature met in extra ses
siou ou Wednesday for the purpose, main-
ly, of discovering some way ol cheeking
Hie reign of lawlessness iu tbe State. The
Governor has opinly nek now It dyed that j
he in powerless to enforce the law, uud i
! give citizens the protection which they do- :
! mand and to wfiioh they are entitled. For I
, six tirnihs or more neither life nor prop ;
I i rty has been entirely safe in portions of j
i the State. The troub e is about l’ouces. j
, A certain class ot stock mum say that uo j
1 fiuces shall he built for the purpose of eo 1
j closing pasture grounds. They are per
fectly willing that a fence shall le built
i arouml a house or a cultivated field, but
not around land that is used as a range
Within the last few years wealthy men
have bought large tracts ol laud iu the
State, aud, as they they wanted the exclu
sive use of their land, they enclosed it
, i Stock men, who hold that grass is free
whether on public or private laud, have
determined that there eha 1 1 he no enclosed
pasture lauds. They destroy the fences
about as fast as they are built. Os course
this produces conflicts und disturbs the
peace of neighborhoods tSo great lias the
trouble become that it is known as the
fence war throughout the State. It is ini
possible to tell how many lives have already
been sacrificed or hew much property lias
been destroyed. Tbe best cit.jgens of tbe
Slate have become seriously alarmed at the
condition of affiirs There are grave
doubts whelhir the Legislature will tie able
to deal with the difficulty satisfactorily.
The prevailing sentiment seems to be lo
| make fence cutting u penal offense, but as j
I the f. nee cutters have a good many frieuds |
in the Legislature it is questioned whether j
a law of that kiud can be enacted. II
there was such a law it is not probable
that it could be enforced, particularly in
counties where the “tree grass” party is in
the ascendant. There is no doubt that it
u nan owos land he has a right to fence it
in. l.t is the duty of Texas to see that
her citizens are protected in that tight.
If she allows an irresponsible mob to make
j the law relative to fences she will find that
! immigrants will avoid her.— JHuv. Neics.

Mr. James Stephens, of the geological
survey, has reported the discovery of
several ruined cave and cliff cities in Ari
zona. One village consisted of sixty-five
underground dwellings near the summit of j
one ot the foothills in tiro Sim ,) uau region, j
1 he hill crest termed the roof for the en- i
titc community. Ihe dwellings are acces- j
sible through shafts loading straight d wn. i
| Foot-holes in the shafts gave means of de- i
. scent to the inhabitants, and a slot opposite i
egress to the suioke. ’1 here are four rooms to j
| each dwelling. In these houses were found I
stouo mauls and axes, decorated pottery, i
. bone awls and delicately constructed |
needles, stones for grinding corn, orna
ments and implements ot wood, the uses I
|of which are not known. Another village !
j built along a cliff, the face of which form- j
led the rear wall for all the bouses, was !
louud near by. Amongst the relics there ■
found was a wooden spindle similar to ]
those now used by the Pueblos Indians. ;
Its reed shaft J\as also found, a split in it
having,beenaeatly wrapped with a thread,!
which under the microscope was found to
ibe composed qf fine human hair. Perfect j
grains of corn, walnuts, the bones of an
elk, antelope and wtlf, portions of wearing j
apparel made from an unknown material, !
| itutl many other perishable ar.teles were !
i found. Preserved as they were, they ■
j might elsewhere have indicated a very re- |
coat inhabitancy? of the village, but in tli ■ i
| high, dry atr.of the region round about i
nothing decays. The village, it is belicv-
I ed, has not been inhabited fur centuries. 1
| Not a piece of metal was anywhere seen,
