The town of Iquique, in Peru, was
destroyed by an earthquake Thurs*
day, the 10th of May. This earth-
quake probably caused ttte extraor-
dinary tidal wave on the California
coast about the same date.
Senator Jones, of Florida, says an
orauge grove or a fig plantation is
the greatest riches a man can pos-
sess. It takes if bout five years be-
fore a fig plantation can be made
perfect, and about seven years before
an orange grove can be said to be
paying. For these times they com-
mence. and for a century they bear
their crops without any more ex-
pense.
Advices from the City of Mexico
say that on Wednesday, the 2d inst.,
Congress, with 132 members pres-
ent, counted the presidential votes
and declared General Porfirio Diaz
president, and on Friday, the 4th,
Diaz went to the gates of the city
and was presented to the army as
the president-elect. After taking
the oath of office he solemnly de-
clared he would occupy the presi-
dency for one term only.
A dispatch from Columbia, S. C ,
to the New Orleans Times, dated
May 9, says Judge Wright, the col-
ored member of the Supreme Court,
charged with drunkenness on the
street and on the bench, has resign-
ed to avoid removal by impeach-
ment or proclamation, as recom-
mended by the Committee of the
House that had been examining the
matter.

Governor Hubbard has issued his
proclamation, offering five hundred
dollars reward for the arrest and
conviction of each and every person
heretofore or hereafter engaged in
the murder of prisoners in any of
the county jails of the State, or in
breaking into said jails for the pur-
purpose of releasing prisoners from
lawful custody.
The story is revived of an organi-
zation of filibusters for the capture
of Sonora, and that the capital neces-
sary to fit out three expeditions is se
cured. The expedition, so goes the
story, will start from Cuyma, San
Francisco and El Paso, the first by
land, the second by water to Guay-
mas, these to reinforce the third in
Sonora.

General Ed. Burleson, an old Tex-
an and noted Indian fighter on the
Texas frontier, died in Austin at 6
o’clock Saturday morning. His re-
mains were taken to San Marcos
Sunday^for burial at his home.

GOING TO SQUKAL.
Thos. P. Somerville, a New
York lawyer, tried for complicity iu
the safe burglary conspiracy, has
sent a letter to Col. Wm. A. Cook
and United States District Attorney,
giving the details of the whole affair.
Somerville says that several who
paid ali the expenses of the job, and
for whose benefit it was planned,
have riot suffered as much as they
should, and as far as he is concerned
he desires to unbosom himself as
much as possible,
A SHOW AS SEEN TIIKOEGU TWO
HAlttS OE Si’ECTACLKS.
Cole’s circus and show, which
was here last Wednesday, was con-
sidered a regular humbug and fraud,
worse than it was two or three years
ago when it ivas in this State. We
learn they avoid, by some trick, the
payment of the full State license.
—Sherman Patriot.
The circus didn’t advertise with
the Patriot. You see the point.
Now here’s another:
The show gives satisfaction, the
general verdict being that it is a bet-
ter entertainment than many that
have heretofore charged double the
price.—Bonham News.
Cole advertised in the News.
BEST THREE IN EIVE.
San Francisco, May 12.—Gold-
smith Maid and Rarus to-day, at
San jose, best three in five, Maid
won in three straight heats. Time,
2 : 20 1-2, 2:16 1-4, 2 :19 3-4. The
second beat, the fastest ever trotted
in the State, beating Occident’s time
half a second. Track good but still
breeze.

A l'LOVVEItEl FALLS.
It is with great regret we are
called on to record the death, in her
eighteenth year, of Miss Sophia
Henderson, only daughter of ex-
Governor Henderson, and the charm-
ing heroine of the now tragic advt 11-
lures related a short time since in
these columns. The young lady
never recovered from the effects ol
the exposure and hardship sue was
then compelled to undergo, and she
rapidly sunk under their ravages.
Her gentle spirit is now at rest.—
