The Effects of Intemperance.
A TRUE STORY OF THE WAR.
Pew places in Texas offer more at
tractions to the tourists or one in
search of adventure than Fort Bliss,
El Paso county. It possesses a salu
brious climate, a productive soil;
corn, wheat, barley and rye grow well
and yield largely ; fruits -such as
apples, pears, peaches and apricots,
and the far.famed El Paso grapes,
grow almost spontaneously.
The society is mixed-Americans,
Germans, French and Mexicans, the
latter the most numerous. Mexican
fashions and customs are generally
adopted. The shrewd business man,
the trader, the wagoner and the dare
devil sporting class and gamblers
make up a mixed and heterogeneous
mass of human beings such as are only
met in those border, semi civilised
ountries of the West.
Nestling at the foot of one of those
numerous mountain ranges which
abound in this wild, isolated country,
half-buried in the wild luxuriant foli
ago, lies Fort Bliss-distance from
San Antonio 700 miles. It is bound.
ed on the north and northeast by a
range of high blue mountains ; on the
south by the Rio Grand, which makes
a curve to the south-dotted here and
there with numerous Mexican ran
ohoes, embowered in fruit trees and
vines ; opposite, on the Mexican side,
lies the neat and old fashioned town
of El Paso, Mexico, justly celebrated
for its fruits and wines, and I might
add, beautiful Mexican women.
Fort Bliss was first settled by one
Magoffia, an early pioneer, who spar
ed neither pains nor expense to ron.
4er it pleasing and attractive. It
was afterward purchased by the Uni
ted States Government, for the pur
pose of establishing a military depot.
The large and commodious oflicora'
quarters and soldiers' barracks facing
tn the square of about three acres,
tastefully laid out and planted in
forest trees, covered with a thick
growth of California clover, renders
it a pleasant retreat during the heat
of summer,
On the fourth day of July, 1861, a
band of soldiers, weary and worn with
the travel of a journey of seven hun
dred miles, first beheld the cool shade
and inviting quarters of Fort Bliss.
The United States authorities had
abandoned everything-a commissary
full of rations, provender for our
horses which we were not slow to ap
propriate.
The fruit season had just opened,
and could be purchased for a song.

But, alas I the brightest picture
soon must fade-the happiest mo
ments of our lives are marred by some
malanoholy thought, so are our happi
est days the shortest, Our dream of
pleasure was of short duration ; for
one of the saddest events I have ever
witnessed transpired, that threw a
gloom over the enti'e army.

At 4 o'clock, P. M., Aug. 23, 1861
Seraeant S. was condemned to be exc

regulations of war. The various
companies were formed and marched
to the spot where the unfortunate
man was to be executed. Twelve met
were selected and drawn up in front
of the lines to execute the sentence
of death. The prisoner, aoompanied
by the chaplain and surgeon, took hi

DECREASE OF THE NEGRol-.5 --A

told us the other day that there are,
within a quarter of a mile of his
house, eight negro families, among
whom there has been but one child
born since the war. We have beard
many such accounts from various oth

that the inerease of the colored pee

orease by death.
