A Mr. Asbury, living near
Scyene, bad, on Monday last, fif-teen
of what are known as “Screw
flies,” taken from his nose and
throat, in which they were imbed-dcd.
Mr. Asbury was removing
this species of worm or fly from a
bruisod shoulder of one of his
horses, some time ago, and in
some way, it is supposed, they
got upon his person and finally
into his flesh. His nose, throat
and mouth were very much swol-len
and inflamed by their pros-ence.—
Dallas Herald.
The following from the Deni-ison
News, confirms the report
that McKenzie has badly whip-ped
the Indians.
The following official dispatch
from J. A. Taylor, A. A. Gener-al,
San Antonio, has been reoeiv-ed
by Col. Strang, of this city.
Mackenzie struck the Indians
at daylight, on the 28th of Sept,
in a canon on Red river, at the
mouth of the Canaditas Bjancos.
He destroyed five small camps
and captured fourteen hundred
and twenty four ponies, colts and
mules, of which he killed ten hun-dred
and forty-eight. Several In-diana
were wounded. Gen. Me
Kenzie lost three horses, and four
men.
The General was camped, Octo-her
1st., on Tulo creek, Staked
Plains.
The elections so far as heard
from indicate that Ohio has gone
Democratic by about 10,000 ma-jority;
Indiana has gone Demo-cratic;
but in the Senatorial eleo-tion
the Independents have the
balance of power; Arkansas has
elected the conservative ticket;
Iowa and Nebraska both wont
Republican, while West Virginia
is not reported. These results
are very satisfactory. The time
can not be very far distant when
all the States will blow On the
brakes and check the headlong
course of the United States down-ward
to destruction.
It will bo seen by reference to
our dispatches that Santanta and
Big Tree are once more captured.
The best way to do with those
red handed rod skins is to turn
them over to the people on the
frontier. It Sheridan and Mac-
Kenzie can have their way, that
copper colored couple will return
to plague Texas no more. But
the “peaco policy”—peace to the
Indians and murder to the set-tiers—
and the quakers will be apt
to liberate them again.upon prom-ise
of good behavior. There will
be trouble just as long as there
are quakers and Indians, one be-ing
just as bad as the other.
A girl, Elizabeth Love, came
all the way from Jackson county,
Mo., to marry John Arnold, at
Rock Bluff, in the Nation. She
found him a husband of three
hours standing, John having giv-on
her out, because she started on
the 11th inst. instead of the 10th.
The girl had been engaged
to him four years, sho be-ing
a true Love. John backed
out of his morning’s bargain, took
the old girl, and left the Nation,
j his three hours father-in-law giv-
| ing him about half a minute to
vamoose in.

printed, as.nearly as possible, a
fac-simile of the constitution, as
printed in pamphlet form by this
office under the supervision of |
the Secretary of the convention
with several provisions so alter-1
ed and distorted as to mislead ig-norant
voters. For instance, in
the clauso on franchise, they have I
inserted a section which requires I
a property quaificatiou for voting I
—that is, that no man can be al
voter who is not worth 8500 ini
veal or personal property. Wol
warn the people against any bo-l
gus instrument of this kindT
