Gen. Wallace once lived in
Njw
Mex-
I ico, was Governor of that territory, and knows a man out there, Catron by name, who vanta to be Attorney-Gen-eral. A Washington special says: "Gen. Lew Wallace has contributed an important letter to the literature in the President's hands opposing tho nomination of ex-delegate Thomas B.
Catron for attorney general of New Mex. ico. The letter was written to Representative Landis with a request that he take it in person to the President, a request which was complied with thiB afternoon. Geteral Wallace relates in hie communication that when he was obllffed to take the field in person to uproot, and suppress an extensive combination of "thieves, murderers and felons," who who had all that part of the country in a state of terror, that, in his opinion, th» most dangerous man he encountered was Mr, Catron. He considers Catron utterly unfit for the office to which he is aspiring to be appointed, aud attack# him all along the liue to show his unfitness for the position. Tho opposition to Catron in the Territory ot New Mexico, where he has lived for many years,. very strong and growing stronger."

To th^ Taste of the Queen. A young man in town, who spendsmuch of his time around saloons and in drinking, was pounded to the taste of the queen by an employee of odb of the livery etables of town for his abuse ot a horse which he had hired the day previous. The employee found the horse in a gaunt and starved condition several miles from town, r.nd since then it has been unable to work, and it will be weeks before it recovers from the effects of the hard driving it had endured. The beating which the young man received was probably in proportion to that the horse seems to have Buffered.
