The New York Mirror draws the following de-
porable picture Of New York:
Our city is infested by gang Of cowardly fel-
lows, who have regular occupation, and no
income and who manage to live like fighting
cocks, by preying the fears Of the community.
They are a sort of organized banditti, of whom
the police, the court, and the jury, stand in fear.
They are composed of bullies backlegs, Tombs-
lawyers, the latter being the most contemptibe of
the gang. The father of the young man lately
arrested through the perjury of these scoundreIs,
an industrious printer, has been bled we hear, to
the amount OF $1,000. He owes it to himself, and
to society, to prosecute the conspirators"

From tho Plains

The ST. Louis Republican of the l4th inst. an
nounces the arrival in that city, direct from Fort
Laramie, Of Capt. s. Van Vliet, of the Quarter
masters Department. He was accompanied by
his wife, a daughter of the lamented Maj Brown.
Captain Van Vliet left Fort Laramie on the 10th
of April, and made the trip across the Plains TO
Fort Leavenworth in seventeen days and a hellf.
On the route they encountered two severe snow
storms, which greatly impeded their progress. At
the O'Fallen Bluffs they met a war party of The
Chayennes, who were going out to attack the Paw
nees. The captain made them some presents of
of tobacco, and was treated kindly by them.
The first train of emgrants was met by the cap
tains company the ID of May, near the crossing of
the Little Blue and from that point, until he ar
rived at the frontier, he met them almost every
day. The main body of the emigration was from
Salt Lake. He found, in all he passed, but two
companies from California. They were ge ting
along very we'll. The past season at Fort Laramie
has been more than usually dry, but little rain hav
ing fallen during the winter or spring. The report
of the Indians and the traders at the Fort that
the snow in the mountains was very heavy. At
one period before he left the Fort there had been
considerable rise in the river, but owing to the
ceeding cold weather it suddenly subsided. On
the Plains the grass was short, but otherwise abun-
dant. The principal emigration across the Plains
this year will be the Mormon trains for the Salt
Lake, and few trains for California and Oregon

GEORGIA RAILROAD CoNvENTloN.-Ex-G Gov.
Jones, of Tennessee, addressed this Convention on
Wednesday, the 18th inst, in behalf of the Mem
phis and Charleston Railroad, for the purpose of
obtaining subscription of stock in that enterprise.
He stated that 50 300 600 were already subscribed,
on the condition that the work should not be COM
menced till the subscriptions amounted to 81, $780,
600. The work will require for its completion,
according to present estimates, 50 100000.
The Ex-Governor was unsuccessful. The Au-
gusta Constitutionast of the 10th has this report
of the proceedings:
The Convention passed resolution admitting
the importance of the work, but declined to sub.
scribe any thing to it on the part of the Georgia
Railroad.
Elk Governor Jones, we thought, was not very
happy, either in matter manner in the effort he
made before the large and intelligent audience he
addressed. Perhaps expectation too highly
wrought, as his fame speaker had been trnm.
peted very loudly in advance. Perhaps he was
embarrassed by his recent speeches in New Or.
eans to convince the citizens there that she would
| be the chief recipient of the produce that would
pass on that road seeking a market"

AND LIGHT, CONSIDERED.
NlR. EDiroR.-
The suggestions that l may humo,y
make upon this very interesting subject
shall be made with view to benefit our
selves by calling into the scientific field,
pens more able than my own. If | sue
ceed in this and give starting point on
correct bdsis-tt Investigate from shall al
be amply paid fer my feeble efforts. Now
for the theory. We all know to a de-
mons,ration that heat and light is ever
tending to an equilibrium, that is to
say, if one portion of the universe has a
supe-s bppdance of either, a radiation or
dispersion takes place to fill the partial
vacancy in other parts. This we have
but to bring in view familiar examples CT
what occurs daily to prove. Suppose,
for instance, by way of illustration you.
place lighted candle or heated stove
in room; in the one case a radiation of
light takes place SO that every portion
of the room will be lighted to greater
or less extent, and in the other case, heat
in hike manner will be scattered in every
part of the room; but the intensity of
both will be diminished in proportion as
the diverging rays separate from each
other. 1t is worthy Of remark here that
it is known by all philosophers that rays
of light or heat, notwithstanding their
diversing travel, in perfectly straight
lines until they are thrown ogt of that
course by some rejecting or rcfracting
body or bodies. Now suppose you place
your candle and stove out doors, then the
rays will be visible much farther, partic-
ularly those of light. This is, however,
owing 10 the comparative keenness of
vision over the sensation of feeling which
are the senses to be used in the supposed
case. Now, are we to conclude, because
we cannot see luminous body any far
ther. that the rays are sent no further?
think this would be very unwarrantable
conclusion, for we find the more power
ful magnifying glasses are made the more
planets and stars are brought to view
Yes; thousands upon thousands, that are
not discoverab.e by the naked eye; and
we have no reason to doubt the power of
the Divine Author of the Heavens and
Earth, and the whole Universe, that he
could so fill up the immensity of space
that not one single ray of light or heat
could be reflected or refracted in any
conceivable direction without illumina-
ting or warning some portion of the do
main of the great Creator and Preserver
of all.
Now, dear reader, it appears to me that
this shows wisdom in all his works
and an adaptedness of his works, one
thing to another. that would not be sc

MEN ADVERTISING THEIR WIVES
ONE OF US.

In the course of business we have IN
serted numerous advertisements of men
cavtioning the public against their wives
on account Of their husband. In most of
these cases the same men could not, on
their own account get credit for glass
Of whiskey; and in numerous instances,
after this public and disgraceful exposure
the parties have compromised their di fiji
culties and afterwards lived together
sometimes only for few weeks, in other
instances 10 the end Of life. In our opin-
ion, a case rarely occurs which justifies
man i'll casting, so far as in his power

before heaven and man to love and
cherish; although we 10 not deny that
there have been ISOLATED cases where it

On our part, we profess to maintain

though in this proposition, we, at pres

have no doubt that they will at an early
day apply these views to the land system
of the United States and that the dona-

regulations will be made to the settler.

BIRTHDAYS.

BY MRS. L. II. sIGoURNEY.
Bright birthdays, i'm the happy home!
And tender love prepares
Fond gifts to please the precious child
That dweleth on its prayers.
1t showereth DER the blooming youth
Blessings and tokens sweet,
And bows before the hoary head
To pay an offering meet.
The birthday of the absent! Thought
On winged scroll shall fly
To distant realms, or stranger climes
Beneath foreign sky;
Or bear that love DER ocean waves
That fierce with anger frOwn,
Which many waters cannot quench,
Nor all their billows drown.
The birthday of the dead! BE sure
That sacred date to keep;
Send portions to the sick and poor,
And dry the eyes that weep;
Wrap garments round the shrinking form,
Homes for the orphan find,
And bid the light of knowledge beam
Upon the darkened mind.
Spread wide the page that speaks of God;
Speed OH the mission-band,
Ger western wales, DER Asia's wilds,
Or far Liberals strand.
Give teachers to the prairie-child;
Shed hope DER souls fOrlorn;
Speak kindly words to erring hearts
That feel the sting of scorn.
Remember those who climb the shroud,
And plough the surging main;
Breathe pity through the prison-gratc,
On sins despairing train.
For all mankind let deeds and prayers
OF pure goodwill be given,
So shall the birthdays of the dead
Help thine own soul to heaven.
