Texnn Konmnrr—A Tale of
Knbbfry nnd Dlood. ■
Tho Hon Antonio, Texas, Express
narrates the following title of l.eon
Bprings:
Almost every voile* in our beautiful
State hns its tale of blood, murder, or
romance. First tho conflict between
tho early pionrora and tho Indiana, and
after* mis the inllux of that dt spemte
class that seek out leblef countries and
leave behind them us a legacy to tho
peoplo who come niter them tides of
murder and viulent-e
A few yonrs before the ndvent of tho
wicked rcUllinn, n Mcxicsn With hla
wife, n hmutlful daughter, and two
strong, hold sons, moved into thia little
valley in which is situated the cave, and
in n most secluded spot st the foot of
tho mountain ho built him n stone house
nnd what tvas suspicious about it, wax
lift lot trass like apjicarance, their being
loop-holes st difleient points. As time
went by, the owner of this stone dwell
ing ninth’ himself populnr in this neigle
borhood by Ids liln-rslity and bis general
refinement; hi* daughter tons the fairest
I lower of the valley of the'Hdotos,’ and
Ida sons nnd hitnNelf fino specimens of
the Moxioan cuvtdero, and they seemed
well off. At lust suspicion leaked out
that thcro was something wrong; sto
ries were alloat that the old man uod his
sons had been carrying on n thieving
trade lietween Texas nnd the ltio (irnndo
—stealing hones in Texas and selling
them in Mexico, and stealing horses in
Mexico and selling them in Texas. At
Inst they wero imficted, when numerous
stono# of mysterious murders were told
in connection with the stealing raids.—
They lndcd all irarch. During the re
bellion tho matter wna dropped; but
tho boys were hunted by cuimcript offi
cers but managed to keep hid in Iho
hills near their fortress. At last an
expedition of Confederates, under the
lend ol a Mexican, happened in the vicin
ity of tho stone houac one night where a
fundsugo was being given A fandango
is a tcmtntion too etomg to b# resisted
by a Mexican, especially n reckless one,
nnd the two boys or tho Mexlenn des
perado wero there; tlioy were called
out nnd in the nltom)* to arrent them
they killed tho Mexican who had led the
pnrly nga’nst them; but they woro both
Killed by the purly. The old mun took
his Wnutiful daughter and fled to Mexi
co, whrru ho now lives, enjoying the
fruits of his lll-giilteu gains. Mirny
stories nro told of tills locality nnd the
deeds routined by tlw o« cnpnnts of tin*
stone fortress.
A hid swnllowod u sumll lend bullet
Ilis/rii’iuJa woro greatly nlnnncd aboni
it, nnd his father, thnt no inennn might
Is* spared to novo his darling boy's life,
sent post Itnstc to u snrgoon of skill, Ji
looting his incsseiiger to toll him tlm
circnmstnnces, nnd urge bis ooming
without delay. Tho doctor was found ;
hoard tho dismal table, nnd with as munli
unconcern as ho would manifest in u
enss of common headache, wrote the fill
lowing laoonic ronly : — M 8ir—Don't
alarm yourself. If, after three weeks
Iho bullet in nut removed, give the boy n
charge of powder.—Yours, Ac. F. 8.—
Don’t sliotit the Iwiy nt nnylxHly." This
ii much akin to tin* Income proeuription,
of Aberncthy. An Iriahmmi called in
greut haste on tho doctor, stilting thnt,
“Do .jiibors, my l)oy, Tim, hnw swallowed
n tnousfl I" "Then, l-o jabers,” said
Abcnethy, "Tell your boy Tim, to swal

muttering fo himself nppnrently ns there
w us no ono else to mutter to. Wo felt
constrained to ask him what hu wua do

'Dnin't doin' nothin', ” wns the loply,
" Where do you Imlong F”
**Don't b’long nowhere, and nowhere
don't b'long to me."
‘•Who are you?’
"I’m llroke.”
" Well. suppose yon ore bn ike, you’ve

For a few montonts tbo unhappy D.
llroko buried his face in his bands, and
seemed l< ml in the most doloftil reflec

clinmed bitterly :
"I wish 1 had been liorn n colt | B
"Why do you wish you Imd been born

"Because a colt ain’t Irol* until ho is

“Well, yo see, as soon aa I was born
something seemed to tell mo thnt I Imd
got to l-e Broke all my life, union I could
get my nomo changed by aet ol Legisla
