When such men ‘*‘‘possess the respect and confidence of a large number of the people’’ of a State it isdecidedly bad for the State.’’ This is the old stereotyped state ment of the Chicago papers al! the rebel cavalry commands, Ashby’s, Forrest’s, Wheeler’s, Morgan’s and Shelby’s, and 1s inexcysably talse when applied to either ot them. There was no cavalry command on either side during the war that won among the soldiers of both armies a higher reputation for courage and dash in battle, or for’ genume_ hard service throughout the war, than Shelby’s. His men generally are to day leading as honorable and _ useful lives as any survivors ot the war. There was no command that did not include some robers and thieves, and while a few ot that description were at times attached to Shelby, it is to be said even ot them that they became the most daring, successful and \fam- ous outlaws this continent exer pro- duced. As for the romantic sentiment which impels Gen. Shelby to defy public opinion in his efforts to be- | ment, has just been forbidden by the health officer at Brazos station on the Lower Rio Grande by the Texas au- thorities and who acted on Mexican | territory by the courtesy and with the consent of the Mexican govern- latter to further act on Mexican soil. He is an efficient officer and no rea- son is assigned for his remoyal. It is believed here that his retusal to| allow Count Telfener to enter Tex- as has something to do with the ac- | tion of authorities. | Gov. Ireland regards the action ot the Mexican official as a gross insult and upon the slightest intimation of fever along the Mexican border will declare a rigid quarantine along the entire line. That’s a pretty trio mouthing around Washington, isn’t it—Chal- mers, Longstreet, and Mahone? Postmaster-General Gresham is the only member ot the government at his post, and ot course he has had to bear the full brunt of these spoils- men’s onset—these renegades on the hunt for provender. Gresham, no doubt, {has read the Bible. He knows how, once upona time, the devil took Christ up upon a_ high mountain and tried to comethe Mul- berry Sellers overhim. These three branded Judasses have about as much political influence and power to offer the federal adminis- tration in retuin for federal patron- age as the devil had to offer2in the shape of kingdoms and crowns. Beggars utterly, one is only curious to know what they did with their lice while foolmg about the post- master-general,—St. foe Gazett. the Mexican Southern Boss Liveryman friend one of his old troopers, it 1s as much out of place in our civilization as the tie which bound the Scottish Chief and his clansman to stand tor each other against all the world, through good and evil report. But when two distinguished Union sol- diers—one an ex-Congressman, now holding a high judicial position, and the other a former Lieutenant-Gov- ernor—undertake the defense ot Frank Jomes, either with or without a tee, it is natural that Gen. Shelby should make himselt somewhat con- France appears to be rapidly drift- ing intoa war with China. The question, therefore, is not will a Chinaman fight, but cana Chinaman fight? Lord Palmerston said not, His epigram was to the effect that no nation which worshipped a wooden god could ever produce soldiers. Sometimes, however, nations wake up.
