ed to see announced, the death of Capt. j.. 2.
Breedlove, of this city. He was one of the numer-
Gus victims of that destroyer of our soldiers, chronic
dyseniery. Capt. Breedlove belonged to the l4th
infantry, and was considered as fine specimen OF
an officer as could be found in our army.
Tbourb suffering acutely from the attacks of
disease he was present at, and participated in, the
dangers and 59res of the battles of the Valley.
He was buried yesterday, and was followed to
the grave by large number of friends, by the

CoRPUs CHRIsTI.-We learn from very good
authority that Col. Kinney has made arrangements
to reopen and deepen the channel through the flats
near Corpus Christi Complete soundings have
been taken, and it is certain that the channel will
be made practicable for vessels drawing eight feet
water, whence they can approach the town with
out difficulty. This work has been undertaken by
Col Kinney at his own expense, and when 1t Is
completed Corpus Christi will become the most i'm
porant of the gulf ports Being the nearest iavora
bic point to central and northern Mexico, it must
necessarily be the depot for all the trade of that
section of country and also the point Of reshpment
for all public and private property going to Paso del
Norte which is destined to be great central mart.
The enterprise and public spirit of Col. Kinney
in undertaking this great work, cannot be too
highly commended. The Colonel left for Calves
ton Yesterday.

RUSSIAN GOLD IN Paris. The presence of
large quantities of Russian gold in Paris, during the
late rebellion is, it is said easily to be accounted
for from the fact that the loan Of gold made by the
Emperor of Russia to the Bank of France year or
more ago, was Withdrawn from: its vaults by the
run for specie since the Revolution.

PICTURE OF Don QUIxoTE.- That talented
young artist, T. A. Gould, has left at our office
beautiful picture of Don Quixote. We have fire.
quently said before that we do not profess to be
Judges of the divine art, yet, far as we may be
permitted to Judge, this picture is really entitled to
a much higher degree of praise than should be
awarded to those not above mediocrty. We mean
by this that it far surpasses such in all the essen
taIs of a truly good picture. The drawing is de-
cidedly good but it is in the exquisite coloring
that the genius of the artist is TO be detected, while
in the sorrowfully sublime expression, who could
fail to recognize the gallant and valorous knight OF
La Mancha We are proud that our city contains
a painter of so much promise as Mr.. Gould, and we
feel confident that the discrimination and good
taste of our citizens will yield him such encourage
ment as his merit deserves.
The picture above referred to, can be seen at our
office, and is, we believe, for sale.

Dr. The reception of Gen. P. F. Smith in the
Parish of Jefferson, the place of his residence, on
Saturday last, was a splendid affair, and reflects
the greatest credit on the worthy citizens OF our
sister parish. The day was smiles and fears alter
nately, but the copious showers could not in the
least dampen the enthusiasm of the Jeffersonians.
A vast concourse of people were assembled at the
place of reception, and the sweet smiles of many OF
Louisianas' fair daughters lent additional charm TO
the assemblage and ceremony. After the speeches
and replies had been made, the parties adjourned to
magnificent barbecue, where number Of patri-
otto toasts were given. The whole affair con-
Quoted with great spirit. The particulars of this
reception were contained at length in the Sunday
