A tejv words will ex plain why, and os it Is very rarely iMt these things seo tho light, oven in the immediate neighborhood of the army or of town, it may bo’weft to, giro you some idea of what is u horrible fact. ; *T* — r * : In their capacity of rangers, the of course have un almost boundless field of movbmonl. If Kent out from a city or a camp they urclnbver expected to return before Or until after night,,or tho host day.— If attached to a tram, they art “only expected to show themselves occasionally, to signify that they arc oh the alert.

Tho nearest Mexican#'to tho vicinity of his disappearance are required to account for him ; they : will not or cannot. Tho Uovvio knife Is called upon, and deliberately every mole Mexican In that rancho U speedily done for, guilty or no| guilty. But this is not enough to make an offset fur the lifcofuTox un. Another rancho receives lh,c fearful.visit, pnd again Idood flows. Tho number killed .bn somc oc. cusions in .this way, has been fearfully great; o> lias been gathered from what fell from the Toxon«,but no one but thcmsclvns know about 11, as p report of I any such doings to tho nearest ’commanding oflicer j would only be followed by a. ton-folcl retaliation on the nearest « customers," This is nil horrid, It Is i.truo, hut it has had tho salutary tendency of cans* j ing tho well disposed and holiest Mexicans to /brret out and inform on those who practice murder and rob bery.
