General Grant Accepts.
The following is Gen. Grant’s ac-
ceptation of an invitation to visit
Galveston during his trip to Mexico:
Continental Hotel, Philadelphia.
Gen. Giant has much pleasure in
acknowledging the receipt of Henry !
C. I*iatt, Esq’s., communication of
the (5th inst., extending to him, on
behalf of the citizens of Galveston,
an invitation to visit their city. He
takes pleasure in accepting the
Jiind invitation, but nun mot arilirtyc
for any patticulay date as it is
his intention to visit Cuba and Mex-
ico, and on returning' stop at Galves-
veston, reaching Galena, ill., by trav-
eling through the west to that point,
lie thinks he will reach Galveston
some time in the latter part of April.
Gen. Grant regrets that his time
is so much taken up, and his corres-
pondence so great, as to compel him
to need assistance, thus preventing
him from replying in person to Mr.
Pratt’s kind letter

I Governor Garcelon, who is just
j now so obnoxious to Senator Blaine
| and his stalweits, was one of the
j Maine senator’s political iollowers
until some eight years ago, when he
I shunted off with the opposition,
j Most of the council are also republi-
| cans, who received their partisan
| education from Blaine, but now
j swell the ranks of the greenbackers,
j and all they know about manipulate

I publican leaders.— Galvestnn News.
A missionary writing from China,
says of his work : “There are sev-
eral inquries here, hut they lack ad-
I hesiveness. Tliey want to go to
| heaven, but they act as if they would
like to ‘talk price’ with the Lord and
| secure some discount on the Ten
I Commandments, or a little mutual
i accommodation between His law
and their habits and customs.”
So it seems there isn’t much differ-
ence between a Christian Chinaman
and a Christian European, after all.

Brknham, Dec. 27.—A tiiree-
year old son of Fa .ny Mortis, color-
ed, who lives in the eastern part of
town, was burned to a crisp this af-
ternoon during the absence of its
mother. Its cries brought the neigh-
bors to the bouse in time to save it
from destruction, but too late to save
the child. It is suppose 1 that the
call and | child’s clothing caught lire accident-
ally.

The Galveston News savs that of
the six hundred English immigrants
who came to Texas last fall, not
more than a dozen—and they unac- I
quainted with the aits of agri- I
culture—returned to New York, j
This is the more remarkable when I
the difference in the farming system
in England and Texas is contem-
plated, and goes far to show the in-
comparable natural advantages that
Texas offers to the ag< iculturist.

Huston had a long and tedious trip
overland, and reports lack ot water
at the mines, but not lack of enter-
prise on the part ot the people tneie
to conquer all obstacles. He handed
the reporter a letter to him from the
government surveyor of Coahuila,
and stated that 1 his gentleman is a
man ot acknowledged tiust and
ability, and much dependence can
be placed on what he has to say
The letter is given as tnrovving light
on the mining district :
Sierra Mojada, 17 of Nov.—S-
Huston, Esq.—Deal S;r: In an-
swer to your questions about this
minetal distric'Ll refer you to a
short statement ■mblished in the San
Antonio Exap-ss a week ago.
Now that IWtave seen more of
the mines, I may and that
the extent ot the mmeiul-bearii.g
strata is much more than at first sup-
posed. A ole deposit of the same
character as that on which the prin-
cipal mines are located has bien
found in the same range of moun-
tians, about six miles west of here,
and extends several miles further
out. The work done on all the
mines is very insignificant, ami the
attempts to reduction amount to a
mere Title. Tile water in this local-
ity is, as you are aware, very seaice,
but, as in many canyons on the junc-
tion of the limestone and conglomer-
ate formation, s- epmg springs have
been discovered. It is expected that
j-1 he boring apparatus of Maj. V\ illett
| will succeed i giving us an ample
| supply. The ores of the mines west
'• vsX'titie, in ltd. C.h.y mi Ot ♦i'.lloiu is
Negras, will probably be smelted at
the watering place of Buena Ven-
tura, situated about fifteen miles
from the mines. A wagon road th .-re
is very feasible; mesquite wood is
sufficiently plenty for many years to
come to supply the wants ot the
smelting works. T he ores are very
fusible, and in fact the carbonates
will smelt in a common fire. Tiieir
reduction may be accomplished in
flame-furnace sb\ mixing flnecharcoal
into the ore, and any kind of fuel,
such as palm, brushwood and other
shrubs, may be used. Things are
yet in an unsettled state, but I have
no doubt that capital invested in the
developement of the mines and in
reduction works will gain a good
profit. The average amount of sil-
ver in the lead ores ranges from 30
to 75 ounces per ton, and the lead
fiom 25 to 50 per cent. As a curi-
ositv I may mention that small nod-
ules of nearly pure silver have been
found in the lead ores., assaying 67
per cent, of silver. In some of the
mines chlorides, bromides and iodi-
des of silver occur. The walls of
the veins or ore deposits have not
been laid bare, so as to ascertain
their actual width. On the surface
the width shows in many places
from 20 to 40 yards wide. As men-
tioned above, but little wotk has
been done in tile mines, and there
are no data to make a calculation
how much ore can be put out in a
week. It seems that ore is plentiful,
and that the output wili he aecoi ding
to the number of hands employ ed in
the extraction. Yours truly,
Chas Sciiucjiard.

Is a compound of the virtues of sarsapa-
rilla, stillingia, mandrake, yellow dock,
with the iodideof potashand iron, all pow-
erful blood-making, blood-cleansing, and
life-sustaining elements. It is the purest,
safest, and in every way the most effectual
alterative medicine known or available to
the public. The sciences of medicine and
chemistry have never produced so valua-
ble a remedy, nor one so potent to cure
all diseases resulting from impure blood.
It cures Scrofula, and all scrofulous
diseases, Erysipelas, Rose, or St. An-
thony’s Fire, Pimples and Faco-
grubs, Pustules, Blotches, Boils, Tu-
mors, Tetter, Humors, Salt Rheum,
Scald-head, Ringworm, Ulcers,Sores,
Rheumatism, Mercurial Disease, Neu-
ralgia, Female Weaknesses anil Ir-
regularities, Jaundice, Affections of
the Liver, Dyspepsia, Emaciation,
and General Debility.
By its searching and cleansing qualities
it purges out the foul corruptions which
contaminate the blood, and cause de-
rangement and decay. It stimulates and
enlivens the vital functions. It promotes
energy and strength. It restores and pre-
serves health. It infuses new life and
vigor throughout 1I10 whole system. No
sufferer from any di-ease y-Vicli arises from
impurity ol the blood need despair, who
will give Avf.r’s Sausai'aiuooa a fair
trial. Remember, the earlier the trial,
the speedier the cure.
Its recipe has been furnished to physi-
cians everywhere; and they, recognizing
its superior qualities, administer it in their
practice.
For nearly forty years Ayer’s Sar-
sapariola lias been widely used, arid it
now possesses the confidence of millions
of people who have experienced benefits
from its marvellous curative virtues.

in chills and fever or other malarial dis-

T hough pleasant to the taste, it is r.ot a

of its cathartic properties, and is therefore
an infallible remedy for habitual constipa-
