the person thus rendered notorious

a tainted character, and will be looked
upon with suspicion by almost every
body whom be encounters. This prac-
tice is radically aud absolutely wrong,

CT We like the following testimo-
ny to the worth Of true woman, from
the autobiography Of the noble Italian
poet, Alferi:
"My fourth and last passion, FORUM
ately for me showed itself by symp-
toms entirely different from the three
first. in the former my intellect had
felt little of the fires of passion, but now
my heart and my genius were both
equally kiudled, and ifmy passion was
less lmpetuous, it-become more pro-
found and lasting. Such was the flame
which by degrees absorbed every az
lection and thought of my being, and
it will never fade away except with
my life. Two months satisfied me
that had now found the true wonaan,
for, instead of encountering in her, as
in all common women, an obstacle TO
literary glory, hindrance to useful oc-
equations, and damper to thought,
she proved high stimulus. pure So
lace, and an alluring example to every
beautiful work. Pricing treasure so
rare. gave myself away to her ire
vocably. And | certainly erred not.
More than twelve years have passed,
and while | am writing this chit-chat,
having reached that calm season when
passion loses it Establishments, l cher
sh her dearer than ever, and love her
just in proportion as flow by her in the
lapse Of time these little esteemed toll
gatherers of departing beauty. 10 her
my soul is exalted, soltened, and made
better day by day, and l will dare to
say and believe she has found in me
support and consolation"

She is owned by Mr.. Pardee in Os-

vessel, is ashore at the same place. Her
freight is light. As the steamer Lady
of the Lake came down from Lewis
ton. a few days ago, she saw three

creek. There were 90 or 80 vessels
in the Niagara river, and there are a

LATER FROM TExAs.-The N. o..
Picavunc of the 4th ult. has advices
from Galveston to the LIST, by the arri-
val of the steamship New York, but
the amount of news is very scanty.
The returns Of the votes on Annexa-
tion Sc were not all in. but enough
was known to show thai the voting was
pretty much all one way. Generals
Rusk, Lamar and Houston were most
likely to be candidates for the Senate
of the United States; Gen. Henderson
and Judge Plisbury were named for the
Governorship Of the new State.
