CONTEMPTIBLE PRESCRIPTION.

case has come to our knowledge, the COM
munication of which to the public, ought, we
think, to raise blush on the cheeks of the men
oy whose action it was caused. A venerable gen.
temen who, in his better DAYS of strength and
capacity to serve his country, has done good SER
vice in many posts of legislative duty--who has
been member of ngress,-Senator in the leg
lslature OF this State, trustee of Union College,
Regent OF the University, and whose father and
father-in-law were active and prominent men
in the war of the Revolution, this gentlemen was
appointed in 1871 to a minor post office In this
State, the income Of which just enabled him to
live in moderate comfort, and to the duties OF
which he has given all his time and attention.
He has been wing all his life and he is wing
still, but since his appointment he has conformed
punctiIiouslv to the spirit of President Tyer's
famous circular, and ceased taking any active
part in elections, although he has always voted
silently and voted as whig.
We would be glad not to believe that for this
he has been elected from the office but elected
he has been, and there is no other assigned i'm
aginahle cause. There is no whisper even, so
far can learn, of incompetency, or neglect,
of undue zeal and activity as politician; sim
ply for not voting with the democratic party he
is displaced and reduced, in the evening of life,
with falling energies, and a spirit on which the
chills of age have cast their deadening shadow,
to look about for the means of gaining bread
wherewith to supply the wants of himself and
his time worn partner, who in maidenhood bore
name at the sound iof which every American
heart should swell with patriotic gratitude. The
daughter of who held back neither his
wealth nor his toll nor his blood IN the cause of
the struggling colonies, may not close the even
ing OF life in the enjoyment of a trit1ing income
supplied by petty officer under the Government
of the great republic, because her husband has
voted whig ticket, and because the President Of
that republic thinks his interests may be promot-
ed by transferring the few hundreds per annum
to politician of another creed 1t is mournful
-pitiable-buti it is so.

TRAVELLING TO NEW YORK The number
of passengers from Boston to New York, and from
New York to Boston, during the month of July
last, by the several routes by way of Norwich
Stonington and Newport, including as well those
by steamboat, as those by the Long Island Rail
Road was Is, 1853. OF this number 16,343 were
first class passengers, and they were nearly all
carried for fare of two dollars each; and 1926
were second class passengers, mostly carried at
1882 IL each, making the gross receipts about
$4,000. In carrying these passengers, six or
seven steamboats, of large clats have been regu-
larly employed, and the cost of the several rail
roads over which the travel passed, with their
respective establishments, about $40, 600, 900.
This is probably the largest number passengers
ever conveyed between the two cities in the
same space OF time-BOston .fdUertiSer.

BLOODY TRAGEDY On Saturday last week
ago, an old Cherokee, man, named Cramp. went
to a house on Van Creek, at which a vo,ino Cade
was eating breakfast. He walked up in front of
him, pushed him back from the table and said he
was not much of a man. This he repeated. and
then drew knife and inflicted wound that al
most instantly terminated the life of his unsus-
pecting victim. But the tragedy does not stop
here. There being at the house, young Justice
who made some remarks about the act and said
that the perpetrator oft should be arrested for
trial. Cramp made at him with his knife. JUS
tice receded some distance, but finding himself
closely pursued, seized hoe and with single
blow on the head killed his assailant. Cramp
was laboring, it is said, under the effects of
whiskey that prolific source Of evil in our coun-
try. Justice Immediately surrendered himself
and perhaps underwent trial on Monday last.

SINGULAR AND IMPORTANT FACTS.

The existence of an organized band of thieves
and pickpockets in the United States has been for
a long time suspected, and disclosure made from
time to time to the police office, have shown that
the gang is composed mostly of a body of Eng
lshmen, most expert and practised in the arts OF
their nefarious profession. We have been fur
nished, says the Philadelphia Ledger, from an
authentic source, with some statistics which will
prove interesting to the community, showing as
they do the number and resources of the gang
and the mode Of their operations.

A large number of Swiss and German immi-
grants have settled in Texas, within few years,
and northern man, who has resided in Texas
several years, asserts that an eighth of the last
crop of cotton in that country was produced by
these immigrants without the use of any slave la
Dor. In addition to these, we learn from the
Washington Union, that an association of Italians
from their native country, have made arrange
ments for settling in Texas. There has been for
some years growing liberal party in Italy which
would revoutionize that country were it not sur
rounded by despodc governments. These mmi-
grants are said to be men of liberal principles,
who wish to breath the air of free country, and
many OF them possess considerable wealth They
will, says the Union, bring their families with
them, and introduce into their new homes the arts
OF Italy, the cultivation of the vine and the olive,
the manufacture of wine and oil, and if found SUI
iiciently profitable, the raising of the silkworm
and the manufacture Of silk.
