fier,o w;e íakiiig ¿tyngs very
coolly. Mr. Luby, tiie collector
A)( customs, intended to resign
¿it tbo end Qf the fiscal yea/,
and has no idea of being dig-
ttyrbed before. Mr. Hopkins,
tUe pt^tniaster, it is thought
wilji jjot resign, nor will be
probably be disturbed in his
position. Consul General
Sutton, of Matamoros, has no
iJotiof vacating until he gets
ready to resign, and us lie has
cut out lots of worjt for him-
self, that will probably be at a
somewhat distant day. Now
we will see if the pressure of
Q&ce seekers will be stronger
than the vis inertia of the
office holders, who rely on
(Cleveland's uttorances and
the civil service la>ys for pro-
tection, One thing seems
.certain,there will be no whole-
sale sweep, and the minor
government .employees will, tp
¡a large extent, not bo molested
in their positions, especially
if they have been old and faith-
ful servants of the people.
On April 17th the military
headquarters at San Antonio
will open bids for transporta-
tion in this department.
Among others on the routes
from Brownsville to Ringgold
and $ew Orleans to Brazos
do Santiago.
publishing this free ad-
vertisement, which we takp
from the columns of the San
Antonio Express, we take oc-
casion to remark, that some
years ago we went through s
lot of red tape, to make this
paper an official advertising
medium for the War Depart
raent. and from that time to
tj)is, evpn in cases of purely
iojcal matters connected with
Fort Brown alone, all adver
¿¡sing has been placed else
Where, and never in the,col-
umn? ot this paper.
We fancy this is the only
place of its size in the U, S,
£hat is utterly without express
facilities. Valuable packages
jjaye to be sent and received
by mail, over a long and dan
gerous njnte, where they are
pto be lost or injured. If
gopd? are sent tp this point
by express. from any part of
tbe U.S., they go to Galves-
ton. three hundred miles aiyay,
¿M)d are detained there, pnti}
tffd0Fefl t9 be forwarded by
the steamer. It would be a
good idea if the sioaiuer and
express folks could make
some arrangement, so tha
this placo would have the
benefit of express facilities Hie
same a other cities, or the
stealer people might inaugu-
rate #,n express service of their
own, s^nd arrange with the
land express companies to bill
goods through, to and from
this port.
The following is a correct

Arkansas, for attorney gene
ral.
Geu. Palmer who Lias been
inspecting the northern divi-
sions of the Mexican Nation-
al It. K., says work will soon

ject, if he would give folks an
idea where he is going get the
money from to pay for the ex-
tension.
