A Dangerous Nest of Murderers

New York, Sept. 27.-A dis- j From the Texi,s Northwest,
patcli from Vigo states that William ' We learn Irom Mr. Johns that tie
M. Tweed was released at half-past velopments have recently occurred
nine last evening, from his fortress
prison. Casiella del Castro, where
he had been confined for twenty-one
days, and removed to the United
States frigate Franklin. Tweed of-
fered very little objection to his re-
moval. He was treated with every
consideration, and the quarters of
Rear-Admiral Case were assigned
him. Tweed’s companion, William
Hunt, was taken on board the
Franklin, and almost immediately
set at liberty. Hunt, after his re-
lease, was very reticent, and main-
tains that his friend Secor was not
Wrn.M. Tweed. Hunt, after leaving
the Franklin, immediately went to
see an American friend at Hotel
in Montague county that implicate
a family of Browns, consisting of
George and George Brown, Jr., Jesse
and Andy Brown, living near Red
River, as the murderers of Rat
Moriow and wife, a man by the
name of Bachelor, and a Mr. Mc-
Clain.
Some of these murders were com-
mitted near two years ago, but no
certain clue to the murderers had
been obtained. Recently some do-
mestic difficulties occurred resulting
in one of the Brown’s wives leaving
her husband, and threatening to re-
venge herself for wrongs she had
endured by infor l ing tne public
who were the murderers. This de-
Europeana, and where he registered termined the murdering party to
under the name of Sands. Sands is j protect themselves by putting her

was much opposition to the surren- j her was ordered to kill her. He re-
der of Tweed, and the action of the fusing lo obey, became another dan-

condemned. Hunt speaks well of tenced to a like late. He flew to
the treatment he and his companion the authorities lor protection, and

The hour for the departure of the

alternoon, and it is calculated the
voyage to New York will take about
thirty days, as wherever possible,

consequence of the Frmklin not hav-
ing capacity to carry coal enough

GEN. BRAXTON BRAGG.
Belgrade, September 27.—At
the council of Ministers, held yester-
day, over which Prince Milan pre-
sided, it was unanimously agreed to
reject the conditions of peace recent-
1} elaborated by the powers and the
porte. The council also resolved
that Servia should not submit, except
in the event of foreign occupation,
and to fight until the independence
of Servia and Bosnia is secured.
The Servians yesterday burned
two bridges which had been thrown
over the Moravia by the Turks.
There were also some engagements
between the outposts of the Servians
and Turks.

Galveston, Sept. 27.—The death j
of General Braxton Bragg casts a as king is expected very shortly,
gloom over the entire city. This
morning, at about nine o’clock, as
the General stepped from the pave-

Twentieth street, he fell prostrate.

IF you feel <h»U,
drowsy, debilitat-
ed, have frequent
headache, mouth
tastes badly, poor
appetite, and
tongue coated, you
are ruffering from
torpid liver, or
“billiouf>net»,’,and
nothing will cure
you so speedily and permanently ns to
take Simmons’ Liver Regulator.
ASK the recovered dyspeptics, bilKews
sufferers, victims of Fever and Ague, the
mercuria diseased patient, how they re-
covered health, cheerful spirits and good
appetite—they will tell you by taking
Simmons Liver Regulator.
BAD BREATH.
Nothing is so unpleasant, nothing so
common as bad breath, and in nearly ev-
ery case it comes from the stomach, and
can be so easily corrected if you wil’ take
Simmons’ Liver Regulator. Do not ne-
glect so sure a remedy for this repulsive
disorder It will also improve >our ap-
petite, complexion and general health.
PILES.
How many suffer torture day after day,
making life a burden and robbing exis-
tence of all plea* nre, owing to the secret
suffering from piles. Yet relief is ready
to the hand ol almost any one who witl
use systematically the remedy that has
permanently cured thousands. No dras-
tic, violent purge, but a gentle assistant
to nature.
CONSTIPATION.
SHOULD not be regarded
as a trilling ailment—in fact
nature demands the most reg-
ularity of the bowels, and
any deviation from this de-
mand paves tne way often to
serious danger. It is quite
as necessary to remove im-
pure accumulations from the
bowels as it is to eat or
sleep, and no health can be
expected where a costive
habit of body prevails.
SICK HEADACHE.
This distressing affliction occurs most
frequently. The disturbance of the stom-
ach arising from the imperfectly digested
contents, causes a severe pain in the
head, accompanied with a disagreeabi''
nausea, and this constitutes what is pop-
ularly known as Sick Headache.
