Legislative,
•
The new school bill has passed both
houses over the governor's veto.
From the Dallas Herald, of the 38th,
we glean the following:
A resolution passed the house on the
27th requiring county courts to examine
accounts of, and make flual settlements
with, treasurers of old school boards.
The election bill has becu approved by
the governor.
The governor has vetoed the landlord
and tenant bill, and a bill allowing par-
ties claiming headrights to sue for them
in district courts.
A Joint resolution of thanks to General
McKenzle passed the house on the 26th.
An adjournment early in June seems
probable.
The tax bill was discussed in the house
on the evening of the 28th, but the
senate's amendments were not agreed to.
This necessitates a conference and will
prbably delay adjournment for several
day? •
On the 20th a bill passed the senate to
Provoked by the repeated outrages per
petrated on American citizens by the
Kickapoo Indians, who are loonted at the
Santa Rosa mountains, Mexico, and make
frequent predatory incursions into Texas.
Gen. McKenzle, the commander of the
United States garrison at Fort Claj-k, re-
solved to follow the Ravages into Mexiéo,
and punish them as lie thought tlicy de-
served. In pursuance of this resolution,
he left Fort Clark on the morning of the
17th. taking with him all the available
cavalry force at Ills disposal. After a
forced march of eighty miles into the in-
terior of Mexico, he reached the camp offgpootfully solicited,
the Klckapoos at early dawn on the 19th.
The camp was charged at dawn, and the
Indians after a slight resistance, were
driven to Ihe mountains, with a loss of
nineteen warriors killed, and about the
same number wounded. Forty squaws
were captured; also a large number of
horses and other stolen property. The
troops lost three men, one killed and two
mortally wounded. Latest accounts say
that Gen. McKenzle had safely recrossed
the Rio Grande. Great excitement pre
vails in Mexico.
The following account of a most
horriblo attempt to'murder is from
the Quitman News of recont date
Early yesterday morning the
startling intelligence renohed our
town that Mr. Thomas Ussery, at
his residence, two miles south of
this plaoe, had oommitted the hor-
rible deed of cutting bis wife's
throat, attempting to murder his
whole family, and oommitted snioide
by shooting himself through the
bead. Such a deed we have nevor
before been called upon to cbroniole.
It seems that it was bis intention
to put an end to the last member of
his family, as ho had prepared his
razor and pistol evidently for that
purpose. The evening priorato the
deed be was particular in having bis
children all sleep in one room.
About daylight, Friday morning, he
got up, took his razor, cut bis wile's
throat, and leaving her for dead,
proceeded to serve his children, who
were asleep, in like manner, where-
upon she arose from her bloody bed
bravely followed and took hold of
him, which prevented him carrying
out bis direful intentions. He then
turned off, got bis pistol and blew
bis own brains out 1 How. strange
it is that a inan oould be so crazed
as to do the like 1 And more mys-
terious when we know that Mr. Us-
sery was an old, highly rospeoted,
well liked citizen, who had raised a
largo family and was in good pecu-
niary circumstances. He was in
town the afternoon before bis death,
and no one discovered anything
wrong about him, more than he
complained to ono or two friends of
being in trouble about a land trade
which he had made.
We learn this morning that Mrs.
Ussery will likely recover, though
her wound is of a very serious na
ture—being a gash about half the
depth of a razor from ear to ear.
All through the life of a pure-mind
ed, but feeble-bodied man, his path is
lined with memory's gravestones,
which mark the spot where noble
enterprises perished for lack of
physical vigor to embody them in
deeds.
