Theatre.

Since our last notice of the performances
of the theatrical corps unde. the manage
ment of Mr.. w. THOMSON, we have been
enabled to attend the theatre more regularly,
and the good opinion we have before ex-
pressed relative to the talent of the company,
has been but strengthened. Their houses
have been much better, and their personifi-
cations have consequently been more ANNA
ted. Each member seems to improve upon
acquaintance. Mrs. Burke and Mrs. Thomp-
son have been evidently more at home, since
the ladies of the place have graced the thea
tire with their presence. Burke has became
quite favorte, and his dry comic humour
cannot fail to render him so, wherever he
| performs. Further comment would be use.
less. The company will leave here to-day
or tomorrow, on a tour to the northern part
OF the State, and it is with feelings of pleas
ure and sincerity, that we recommend their
performances to the favorable notice of the
good citizens of Benton, Carrollton. Grena-
da, &C., as they will most probably make a
brief sojourn in each of these places. Lex
ington is also included in their route. al
which place they have already played. The
company deserve to be patronized.

The second Address delivered before the
Yazoo Library Association, embracing the
subject of knowledge and its effects upon
the entire human family in different points
of view, is placed before our readers, in &C
cordance with a resolution passed by the
members of the Association at their meeting
on the evening of the 28th of March, (ult.)
This Address was delivered by our much es-
teemed fellow -townsman, DR.. J. w. BAR
NETT, and elected from his auditory that tes-
timony of approval so justly its due. We
beg leave, however, to differ entirely in OPT
MON with DR.. B. when he advances belief
of an Address delivered before the Associa-
ton, being afterward published, sis prejudi-
oiOl to the best interests of the Association -
We know not what i'll effect it can possibly
be said to possess. The good tendency Of
such a course seems evident, as it necessa.
rily creates higher ambition in the mind o.
the orator to excel, thereby perfectng an
Address, when there is a certainty of lis ha.
wing to stand the test of public opinion
The Addresses on Education and knowledge
reflect much credit on the gentlemen BY
whom they were delivered.

ARRIVAL OF THE COLUMBIA-LATER
FROM ENGLAND

FROM ENGLAND.
The steam ship Columbia left Liverpool on the
9TH of March, and reached Halifax on the 25th,
where her mails and passengers were placed on
the Unicorn, and by her delivered at Boston. The
Columbia encountered most terrific storms and on
the 9th of March broke what is called her inter-
mediate shaft. After this accident her sails were
rugged, and in this condition she reached Halifax
The news brought by the Columbia is not partcu-
arly important or interesting, and hence we this
morning present only the synopsis of it, which we
find IN the Crescent City:

fish standing army, to the number Of 10000 men,
Rad been resolved upon.

estimates make il as much as 100000.

Texas.
Since the receipt of the news of the in
vasiOn of Texas by portion of the Mexican
army under Arista, nothing of interest has
transpired in that country save the P:ocla-
nation of Governor Houston. the reported |
retreat of the Mexicans, &C., all of which |
our readers have been made acquainted with. |
No positive account Of the number of the in
vading army has reached us, but we are Of
opinion its force must be considerable. If
it were merely marauding party that had
entered the confines of Texas, we should,
most probably, ere this have heard of their
total humiliation, or at least, of their having
been driven back far beyond the frontiers OF
the country; and that precipitately too, for
the temperament of the Texans is not such
lage their homes and then to make good their
retreat al a mere snail's pace of eight miles
day, as has been stated. If on the contrary,
the Mexican force amounts to las was at first
stated,) fourteen or fifteen thousand men,
then we scarcely should expect that any ac-
ton of an important char acter had as yet ia
ken place. The invasion of the Republic
was wholly unlocked for by her citizens and
unexpected by the people Of the United
States, consequently no preparations of de-
fence had been made at the time it actually
took place,-no assistance had been tender
ed her by the people o. this country, which
undoubtedly would have been the case had
Santa Annals meditated invasion have been
anticipated here no American volunteers
were in readiness to give her their assistance
no extra supplies of arms, ammunition, &c
had been raised to enable her yeomanry t.
meet at once anC drive from their soil theil
treacherous, blood thirsty and scarce hal
civilized invaders; but being forced to keeE
lin reserve until the necessaries for waging
the war successfully, should be received land
her small army be re- inforced by companies
Of volunteers from different States, it has
most likely, been her object thus far, to pre-.
vent the Mexicans gaining more ground than
what they took possession of at their frs
attack upon the country. This has been nc
very difficult task on the part Of the Texans
for the Incidence and cowardice of the Mex
leans is too we'll known for any one to i'm
aglne for a moment that the troops under the
command of Arista, would possess sufficien
perseverance or courage to add to the wan
tage ground they had already gained. The
Texans therefore, are but leisurely awaitin,
the arrival of men and arms in suficien
quantity to warrant giving battle, in orde
that victory may be certain on the part of tht
army of the Republic. The Mexicans will
ere long be surprised at their favorite gam,
of Monte and be called to lay down thei
arms on the battle field of second San ia
cinto, or be forced into a precipitate retreat
in which they will be pursued by their con
querors even to the very gates of the one
proud palace of the Montezumas.

which seems now to be settingin, will scorch

high enough for the scy,he-and then what
do you think your horses will say to you!--
If You had done what Farmer Syke did you

douoiy benefited, but it is also preparatory
10 an au'unL sowing of wheat on the lay.
NOW PIT this and that together, and calcu-
late the result. First two tons Of hay per
acre, the first cutting, one ton per acre, the
second, with a capital aftermath for his diary,
and if wheat is sown by the 9sth Of Sep
tember, q yield of forty bushels per acre
might be expected at next years harvest;
and this is not all, for alter the wheat is car
ried, the land will be turned and the clover
stsbble, perfectly rotted. will form an excel
lent seed bed for buckwheat, with the ex-
psctation of a heavy crop. NowIwill leave
you to calculate the value Of my second crop,
remember You have already had the first cut
ting, and a severe cutting it was,) and Of
course you do not expect much at the third;
while mi bushels of wheat per acre,
next harvest will be quite as much as you
have any right to expect, and COMMON JUS

PAPER FAcroRY.-We are gratifed to say
and hope our country friends, especially the
publishers Of newspapers, will take notice,
that a paper mill will soon be operating near
this city. The building is nov nearly finish
1t is on Chouteau's Avenue, about two
miles from town, and is being put up by Mr..
Jarret Shauck, an experienced manufacturer;
and, as we are informed, with means to car
ry 1t on successfully.
The building is of brick, two stories high,
65 feet long and "a feet wide, with an en-.
CINE room attached.

The mill will commence operations on the
lst Of May next.
We trust that the enterprise of this gen.
tleman will be literally rewarded. The pub
fishers of this city, will, Of course, buy at his.
mill, if they can be supplied, as we presume
they may, on fair termsi and, we trust, as
the establishment is extended, that all those
who purchase paper by wholesale, will find it
to their interest to buy here.
