CITV w MEXICO , Octobur 10 , 1881.
During the past wuok 0110 could ru-
mark groups of Mexicnm statiiling
urotitul tliu street cornnrs uagoily
rendiut ; the atlvortisoinuuts , in which
the Aloxicnno Cunlr.tl Uniirowl Coin-
jwny olTcrod tdtho public of the capi
tal the lirat pleasure trip on the ro-
ccntly finished line to Tula. The train
started at 7tO : ; A. M. , and was pretty
well crowdud. The station at Hnoi
Vista , the starting point , inulud
several very neat buildingr. , the prin
cipnl of which are the storehouse , HO
by 05 feet , the cngino hall , 1-10 b ;
85 feet , and the blacksmith's shop , ( i
by 34 feet. Tlio roofa of these built ?
iims are constructed of ties and ol
rails , bought from the VoraCnw-Mwc
ice llailroad' ' Company for 0110 cent
pound. Tlio line is constructed ti
stool rails , weighing 4i > nounda a yati
The cuago is 4 foot 8 inchos. Th
traiiiR run iirst. second and third cias
caw , built in Wilmirgton , Uclawaic
The six engines \voro constructed i1
Philadelphia , The road runs for aboi
twenty miles through ll.it , swamp ,
country. At Huohnetoca it runs tt
a few miles pnr.illol to the Sulliva' '
line , the lines being but six motru
apart at aqvoral places. Upon enter >
ing the T.i'cho do Notchistongh then
is an inuiiensc ! wall of unsettled parti
nt its right and a deep , precipice at th
left. To avoid necidouts strong wall
have boon constructed to prevent th
sliding of the earth , and onc4housan
men are yet constantly at work t
lower the wall and fill the precipice ,
El Tacho do Notchistungo is the plas
where the Spaniards constructed ai
innnonso tunnel for turning oil' th
water of the "Valley of Mexico int
Tula River. Ton thousand men hav
constantly been at work for years
over night the working Indians wor
imprisoned in an immense yard cspec
ially constructed for the purpose
After fiyo thousand Indians , by th
falling in of the tunnel , had beet
killed , the work was abandoned to b
taken up again in our day. Afto
having pass-id the Tacho do Notchist
ongo the train runs a few mile
through a picturesque country and ar
rives at Toula. The length of the lit )
is oixty-throo miles. We arrived a
Toula at 10 . \ . M. The passengers
numbering about three-hundred , wol
provided with Amcricanlunch baskets
had to make the best of their time
though Toulay oilers little of interos
to the stranger , except to those wh
care to visit the ruins of an ancion
Spanish church discovered by Char
nier.
nier.Tho
The travelers scomijd to bo wel
pleased with the excursion , for th
train was run with gre.it care b ,
American machinists , assisted bt
Mexicans , and everything had beet
done to make the travelers comfort
able. My impression of the road wa
that it had been most carefully con
structed , and I did not feel the leas
uneasiness with regard to accidents
though the dreadful Moulos acclden
ie yet remembered. I was surprised
to hear , after having , arrived in th
City of Mexico , that 'the very train
on which I had travelled had beet
precipitated into the abyss of Notsh
istonjro.
The conductors of the train are ai
Americans who receive from $80 1
$120 "a month. The engine drivers
have a monthly salary of $120. The
brakemen and firemen , who am Mex
icans , receive $30 to $00 a month
First-class passengers pay three cent ;
a mile , second and third-class passen
gers two cents and one cent for tin
sumo distance.
Quite a sensation has been created
not only in the capital but in the
country as well , by the publication oi
the odicial documents relating to the
assasination of citizens in Altaian , Jal
acingo county , Vera Cruz. The crime
was committed toward the end o
May by the District Governor" Au
gustin Itomo. Seven peaceful citizens
were arrested at midnight without
any warrant whatever , conducted to :
neighboring wood and shot there in
the presence of Homo , who fired him
self two shots upon a victim that had
not yet expired. The soldiers con
ducting the escort , refusing to fifo ,
were threatened with punishment if
they would not obey the order. Ono
of the victims lamented his ill fate not
to bo born in the centre of Africa ,
where ho had at least given up his life
according to the orders of some savage -
ago King.Tho | ) prisoners were arreste"d
without any reason whatever , and
without having scon a judge or a lawyer -
yor they were executed. Some of the
soldiers , who intended to make the
known , were summoned before the
Tribunal and threatened with ton
years confinement if they dared to
open their mouths. Furthermore , the
soldiers wore forced to sign a paper ,
whoso contents they never read , in
which they declared having fired at
the prisoners because these wretches
tried to make their escape , though all
Buvonworo heavily loaded with chains
The mothers and sisters of the prison
ers , who followed the mournful escort ,
rforo forced by Itomo , revolver in
hand , to retreat 'nto the village. All
endeavors made by the relatives of
those murdered to obtain justice at
Uiu different courts have been useless
so far , and Homo occupies , yet , his
official position just as if nothing had
happened , Tlio facts ot this aud other
crimes are undoubtedly established ,
and Homo lias scarcely tried to justify
himself.
There is no doubt that the Federal
Government and its liberal inombe'rs
do not approve of such an abuse of [
authority , and this case presents an
opportunity not only to apply strict
justice , hut on well to sot an example
for the real enemies ot the country's
happiness. Homo belongs to that sot
of desperadoes who formerly devas
tated the country with revolutions , and
who by the intervention of his politi
cal friends has obtained some ollice.
The Government will strengthen its .
well-deserved credit abroad by actini :
rnoH severely uga'iiint criminals of
Romo's kind , and it will at the himu
time free itself from the sworn ene
mies of its piosperity. 1 have nniplu
proofs , for inst.uiuthat an iii-liviilii-
al who IB known as a rascal , and who
is constantly committing frauds tf a
mean nature , occupies the ollice of
instructor at one of the ( Jovonnneiit'rt
schools , and draws his high sulaiy
without doing any good to those who
should bo instructed by him. It ia
not only ot importance 'that the chiefs '
of ft ho Uovornmout bo honest and en-
lightonon inon , but lluwo in inferior
poiaitioiiB ought to bear the samechar-
nctor.
A plan projected at various times
by tlio Aztecs Jiiul the Spanish con
querors , the draining and thu canali
zation of the valley of Mexico , seems
to bo on the point of execution On
the 3d of October a contract was
signed by General Pacheco , reproaont-
inn tlio Government , and Senor A
Miory Cnlis , ii-presenting the Drainage -
ago and Canalization Comjmnylimitoa ,
of the valley and city of Mexico. The
publication of thu contract hna pro
duced an excellent ctl'ect in tliia city ,
as property will rapidly increaio | in
vuluo and the city of Mexico will bo
be provided with proper water accom
modations , not to iiunlion thu benefits
derived from the enterprise as to thu
sanitary improvement of thu valley
and the city.
Two sailors of the Spanish Man-of-
war have lost their lives in YoraCruz ,
yellow fever having been the cause of
death. A curtain Dr. Licht has ar
rived from Now Orleans to claim the
§ 100,000 promUed by the City Coun
cil for an ellicicnt antidote ngainst
the terrible pln < rne. Dr. Licht is the
sixth applicant this season.
The duty on importations in Vcra
Cruz has produced during the last
fortnight \ \ \ September § r > L'4 , ! )0 ) , the
largest amount over produced in that
[ > oi'od The Mexican treasury seems
to bo in a nourishing ntato , for it had
in its vaults thu first of this month
§ 1,200,000 in cash.
Thu total subvention hitherto
granted to railway companies by'tlie
Government is reported to bo § 87 > -
000,000.
A new colonization contract has
been signed by General Pachoco and
Senor lliz/.o , who binds himself to
import Italian Inmilies to Mexico ; ho
is to rocuivo . 800 for each emigrant ,
male or fenfale , over t'wolvo. years ,
and § 30 for each child under twelve
yeara. Beside , a premium of § 15 is
promised on every imported Italian ,
fiio concessions made to the immi
grants by the Government are not to
excelled. It is a pity that the Gov
ernment , th > usrh animated by the
very best intentions , limits its gener
osity to Italian lazzarom , while there
thousands of industrious Germans and
Englishmen who would readily come
Lo this country if proper inducements
were ottered by the Government.
Ono" of the improvements intro
duced into this capital is the founda
tion of a largo-hospital constructed on
iho best modern plans ; Governor
Fernandez would merit the thanks of
the healthy if he would put the thor
oughfares iu a bettor condition , as ho
might otherwise bo obliged to con-
itruct a special edifice for those whoso
limbs have been injured.
On the 25th of thisinouth the wed
ding of General Porficio Dia/ will take
place. Ho is pramiaed to Miss Car
men Rnbio , a charming young lady of
the capital. Among other gifts the
General lias bought for his bride a
diamond set worth § 25,000. Diaz
will spend the honeymoon at Oaxaca.
the seat of State Governor of the
Province of Oaxaca.
MURDERERS' MOTIVES-
Some Strnngo Causes ABHignod by
Killers for Theirs Acts.
New York Dispatch.
There i probably no civilized coun
try in which life is hold so lightly and
murder committed aa wantonly "as in
the United States. In this connection
it is interesting toinvestigate the causes
which inspire our red handed malefac
tors to the crime they commit.
The fantastic fancy of the romancisfc
could create no stronger reasons for
murder than those some of our mur
derers afford. The theory hold by ,
many that a madness comes over some
men , whoso fury can be only quench
ed in blood , receives ample indorse
ment in such cases as we give below.
Take the one , for instance , reported
from Wyandotte , Kas. , recently. A '
notorious young scamp of that place
a negro Grant Greoii byname. One
afternoon Green started to go hunting ,
A little boy 8 or 10 years of age fol
lowed him , and would not go back ,
when ordered to do so by Green. As
they came to a creek , Green said ho
would shoot the first thing he could
find across the creek. The little boy
ran ahead and climbed up the bank
playfully saying : "Shoot mo. " Green
did shoot , and shattered the boy's legs
so that ho died. When arrested , the
murderer remarked , coolly : "It was
his own fault. I gave him fair warn :
ing. "
Another colored assassin has just
been sentenced to deat hut Little Rock ,
Ark. Ho shot a stranger dead , by
mistake for a man against whom ho
had a grudge , and at his trial pleaded
not guilty , on thogroundthat "ho had
no hard feelings against the deceased. "
In Pittsburg , a year ago , a work
man in a foundry had three fingers of
Ins right hand crushed under u steam
hammer. Ho trava up foundrying in
consequence , and beciimu waiter in u
saloon. While mixing a drink for a :
stranger , the customer happened to
remark that ho was u master
mechanic , and set up the machinery in
sevoralj foundries in the city. The
waiter asked him if ho had Bet up the
machinery in the foundry ho had been
srippled in. Upon the man relying '
that ho had , the waiter stubbed him
to the heart with the knife ho used to
3ut lemons. 'Jho murderer then
finished mixing the cocktail , and
irank it off in the presence of the
horrified by-standors. tlb
A somewhat similar tragedy ia re b
ported from Las Vegan , Tex. An ? '
idle hanger on of the local bar looms fl !
ot on a drnnk and wont to slc'op on hih
ho railroad track. A train came hibi <
did what trains bi
ilong and generally
Jo to a man asleep on the track. Ho st
was taken to the hospital and one of 01
liis legs amputated. When ho rocov- S (
jrod no resumed his old courses , and ini i
juded by shooting the conductor and ni
jrakeman of a train to avongc him- 01hi

Thoao two avengers hud something hiw

vith hatred of their victims. But el
vliat caust ) had the man in Georgia , 01
vho , having just purchased a revolver fo )
n an Augusta store , tried it by shoot-
ng a telegraph lineman down from a cl
mlo ut the door I His reasons fur his
irimo were about as cogent as those tn i
if the fisherman ut 1'alatka , Fla. , who
ailed his tough old boat into the
ancy skitF of a tourist visitor , "just in

'UK JIA.V AND WOMAN" IV IT TO IlltOWJf.
It is comforting to read in connee- 01
( ion with this gentleman that ho was
hunted down the coast by n vigilance
committee till his craft capsized in a
pnle and left him to enjoy ( ho same
fate his two victims had oxpeiiencod.
Down in the sumo country , at
Indian river , an alligator hunter
walked into a store and bargained foi
an iron stow pot. There were tw <
kind. * , one for s'l.f > 0 and the other foi
S . The alinator nniiihilator cruver
for n $2 one , but refused to pay more
than $1.00 for it. The storekeeper
refusing this oiler , the saurian slave !
laid the money ho ollered on the
counter , ahot the obdur.Uo tradesman
through thu lungs and carried oil' his
pot in triumph to his forest homo.
In a barroom in Paxagoula , Mis ? . ,
two lumber cullers got into a dispute
over the length of n tree one of them
had foiled. "Thoy ditlVrod one foot in
their estimates of its measurement ,
Aftera time and numerous drinks a
fresh topic of discuss on displayed this
one. Next morning ono ot the tim
ber men met the other in the street.
Ilo walked up to him and said , with
out any preliminary explanation :
"A hundred and fifteen. "
"A hundred and fourteen , " replied
the other.
And ho blow the first speaker's
brains out before hn could use thu
knife ho had stealthily drawn when ho
opened the conversation.
Scores of miirdors athe out of just
such trivial disputes. In Galveston
two negroes s.it on the cotton dock
last month , eating watermelon and
counting the bides being loaded on a
steamer at tlio wharf. They counted
aloud. Ono tallied forty and the
other forty-one , and they fell into a
wrangle over who was right. It ended
with ono whipping out n razor and
disemboweling the other in his tracks.
That night the brother of the murder
ed man went to thu house of a brother
of the murderer , and in the fracas
which ensued both men were slashed
to ribbons by the vigorously applied
favorite weapons of their race.
At Toxarkana a bully of the Jin
Currio typo stopped at a store am
pointed to a red flannel shirt in th
window , asked the proprietor , wh
was standing in the doorway :
"How much do you want for'tha
blue shirt there ? "
"That rod shirt you mean , 1 sur
pose , " responded the storekeeper.
I'll teach you what I mean , you
, " replied the ruffian.
And seizing the poor Israelite bj
the breast the miscreant drew hi
bowie knife across his neck ,
CUTTINQ HIS THUOAT FltOM EAH TO E Vll
Charles ISolles , in Minneapolis
missed lire in trying to kill a dog , ant
his wife's laughter so enraged hii
that ho aimed at her. The Aveapoi
still refusjii" to go off ho tried it 01
himself in his ungovernable fury , am

A colored woman at Dyke's Mill
Ark , ordered her 10 and 12-year-olt
children to go into the house. The ;
lingered , and their disobedience reii
dorod her so frantic thutsho beat the !
brains out with a. pine knot. He
neighbors roasted her alive for th
crime.
At Whitomill , Va. , a farmer nanicc
Williams had a quarrel with his wif
last month. The wife sued out a war
rant for his arrest , but his daughters
made sure of being revenged upon bii
by chopping his head off before h * .
could be arrested. "Ho had no righ
to treat mother so , " they arc roporte
to have said.
Al Louisville , in a quarrel botweoi
bwo brothers , Louis and Henry Basset
over the loan of twenty-five cents , the
latter shot the former , killing hin
instantly. Before the shooting the
two had fought , during which Henry
vas so badly cut that he will dio. I ho
row began in the room of their mother ,
md en cd in an adjoining room.
A California jury will soon have t
pieer case to puss on. E. R. Sproul ,
jf Oroi ille , lay in wait with a shot < ; ui
'or J. H. Espy , who had invaded his
lomestic preserves. In the darkness
10 shot James Andrews instead. The
ntcnded victim had learned of his do-
lign and sent Andrews to. the rondey.-
-ous in his place. It will strike the
ivurntre reader , doubtless , that the
ntemled victim ought to bo indicted
is an accessory to the murder.
Win. Smith , a prospector , visited
jilverton , Col , Ho signalized his com
ng to town by shooting tlio first man
10 met , and went on popping at every
mo hoencounteredtill hissovon-shoot-
r was emptied. Ho then stopped
nto a store , purchased some car-
ridges , and was loading for iv now deal
vhcn ho was arrested. Onp man kill-
id and lour wounded attest his prow
iss as a shot. His only excuse for his
vholesalo slaughtering was :
"I've boon in the woods thesosoven
nonth and I came to town to have some
un. I'vo had my fun now you can
iavo yours. "
A considerate 'assassin was Martin
'robasco , of Deadwood. Ho mot a fat
Jennaii mounted on a jackass on a
mely trail , and drew on him , Thu
ntimidatcd Teuton descended from his
ogrser ane Probasco mounted in his
ilace. Ho then asked :
' 'Whore are you going ? "
"To Rod creek , " replied the intend- [
d victim.
"Good God ! " exclaimed Piobasco ,
'you're too fat to walk that far ! " and
n saved him the weariness of the
Burnoy by shooting him through tlio
eart.
A much moro extraordinary case of
lie same sort comes to us from No-
raska. At Smalloy station u tramp
pplied for entertainment at a lonely : :
irm. It was denied him. by the
irmor's wife , who was alone in the
ouso with her little baby. The vaga- :
end thereupon brained her with u
lick of cordwood , and proceeded to
iitertain himself. He held thu
lualling baby in his lap while ho ate ,
ud when > ho went away tucked it
icoly up in bod. It wits being raised
u the bottle , and that receptacle '
eing empty he went to the cow house ,
lilked a cow , filled the bottle , and
rent on his way in search of some one
IBO to murder , leaving his victim's
rphan comfortable and wo'l provided

Gniteau is not the only assassin who
aims to have been
nivi.viii'y j.vhi'iuiiii
his crime , A miller in Maine foil
pen a stranger who was passing his
> or and beat him to death with an
on bar. The only explanation ho
uld give for his act wan that God
id whispered to him that the victim
us a bad man , and ought to die.
A school teacher in Idaho strangled
10 of liis scholars on the same slen

her to do so.
