honor of being gallant and whole souled soldier,
one who threw his every energy, his whole heart
into the perforna nee of his duties. In this hasy

FLOWERS OF FRIENDSHIP.-No.5 5.
THE HEART AT PEACE.-BY REV. J. NJ MArF1r-r
The heart at Peace with heaven at night,
Resembles moonlit seas at rest,
Rejecting back the pure starlight
And days soft twilight in the West
The heart at Peace with Jesus throws
On His dear bosom all its care
Tells Him the btterest Of its woes
And lays the inmost secret bare.
The heart at Peace, lies gently down
.--. In vlr:uous and serene repose- -.
III fortune smile, or fortune frown, ..
If friends approve. or friends oppose.
The heart at Peace, in battles hour,
When Satan like lion roars,
Shall soar above his dragon power. ,..s.#
And shout on Canaan's glorious shores
The heart at Peace, by Jesus blest!
No tempests shall its sky deface-.
1t calmly leans upon His breast,
The Christians only resting Place.

In the Senate, Mr.. Foote gave notice that he

In the House, the California Territorial bill was

The ODD FELLOWS DEDIcATIoN.-The dedi-
cation and conservation of the new Odd Fellows
Rest will take place to-day. If the programme OF
the procession and the order of performances as
published can be relied upon any indication, the
affair will be of nature rarely equalled in city
for splendor and solemnity. The number of Odd
Fellows in New Orleans is sufficiently great to form
very imposing cortege, whose brilliancy will be
increased by the appearance of the members in the
full regalia of the order. The programme of the
procession has been published by the city papers,
from which it appears that all the lodges in the city
will be present, together with the various encamp-
mens. The procession will pass through the prn-
cpal streets of the three Municipalities to the depot
at the New Basin, where carriages will be in wait
ing to carry the order to the cemetery. Arrived
there, the ceremonies will commence with prayer
by Brother Whitehall after which there will be
some remarks by the Grand Master. An Ode,
composed by Brother Sheafe, will then be sung by
the members; after which the imposing and solemn
ceremony Of dedication will be performed by Bro
ther Hooper. This will be followed by psalm,
rscited by the Chaplain and brethren alternately,
when an Grafton will be delivered by John C.
Larue, and a poem by G. w. Christy. The funeral
ceremony and benediction conclude the whole
These ceremonies, well adapted to the solemnity of
the occasion, will, as we have said, equal if not
exceed in spendor, anything ever before witnessed

LrcTURE.-The lecture at the Armory Hall this
evening for the benefit of the Asylum for destitute
females will be delivered by Prof. Alex Dimitry,
on "the beauties of the natural world as source
of mental pleasures" We need not speak of the
merits of the lecturer in this city, where his pro-
found learning, vigorous thought and manly elo-
quence are well known and justly appreciated
No one can hear him without instruction and plea
sure, and the large hall will no doubt be crowded
on the occasion.
This is the second lecture of the course. En-
gagements of an important nature prevented us
from attending the first, as we intended, and we
were thereby deprived of the pleasure of hearing,
what we have been informed, was very able
dissertation upon subject of the first interest to
society. We probably should not have agreed
with the lecturer in his conclusions; but would,
nevertheless, have been delighted to hear his theory
discussed and supported with ability we therefore
hope that his production may be published for gen.
eral circulation.

altogether After being a second time discharged
on writ of habeas corpus from the imprisonment
inflicted by the Judge, for what he chose to con.
slider contempt of Court, the Clerk did what he
had offered to do in the first place-that is, paid
over all the money in his hands received in the
ease of McLane others, to the Sheriff, in satisfac-
ton Of the various wrts, under authority of which
seizures had been made, and took the receipt of
the Sheriff accordingly. On Saturday morning the
Judge came into Court, and inquired of the Clerk
whether he had complied with the order to pay
over the money The Clerk, through counsel,
declared what he had done, and exhibited the
receipt of the Sheriff The Judge then inquired
of the Sheriff, who stated that he had received
the money, and held it under the several writs to
be paid over to the proper parties when their rights
were determined. The Judge was disposed to
regard this as an evasion of the order He then
inquired of the Clerk whether he had made pay.
