Judge Buckley, of the District Court
of Galveston, in recent address to the
Grand Jury, said that there was no
country inhabited by the Anglo Saxon
race in which there was so little regard for
law and order as in that State; while her
laws were superior to those of her sister
States, she was overrun by lawlessness.
He continued:
" | am still young man, and much
younger Judge; but during the four
years that have been on the bench, there
have been between fifty and sixty cases
of murder before me and if in each of
the twelve Judicial Districts in the State
there have been like number, then
there have been upwards of six hundred
cases of murder in four years-showing
state ofthings uneguaed in any country;
and that of these six hundred eases not
six of them had been found guilty by the
jury by which they had been tried Iti
not supposed that in all these cases there
was deficiency in evidence, and the on
ly conclusion to which l can arrive is that
the juries must have forgotten or disre-
garded their oaths."

How 10 make NJ Money i'm Business

What perturbation of mind! What
struggling, and scratching, and shifting,
and lying, and cheating is practiced ey
cry day by mamon- worshipers to make
money! What comparison between
the unsuccessful f? Of the millions who
embark in business to make money, how
few succeed! And why? Because but
few know the secret of success. Most
think it chance, or good fortune, but they
are sadly mistaken; and if such as are
now pining to get rich would only strictly
mind the following advice and be guided
by it, there would be no doubt of their
realizing their golden dream =
Let the business of everybody else
alone and attend to your own; don't buy
what you don't want; use every hour to
advantage, and study to make even
leisure hours useful think twice before
you throw away a shilling, remember
YOU will have another to make for it;
find recreation in looking after your
business buy low, sell fair, and take
care of the profits look over your books
and if you find an error, trace
it out should stroke of misfortune
come upon you in trade, retrench, work
harder, but never fly the track f; confront
difficulties with un6inching perseverance,
and they will disappear at last; though
you should fail in the struggle, you will
be honored-but shrink from the task
and you will be despised.

Leaving "a Fortune TO Lovers.

A lady of considerable beauty, and
still young, died recently in France, leav-
ing fortune. The Constitutional thus
narrates the troubles as to the heir -
Gas she had lived alone, the Judge de
Paix of the district took possession of her
furniture and her effcts on behalf of the
heirs. Amongst other things, was a
rather large collection of richly bound
books. On opening one of the volumes,
the Judge de Paix found a will; in
second there was second will, and in
nearl ly all the others. Each of these
wills was of a different date, and each
constituted different person universal
legatee. These legatees were all Young
men-oficers of the army, advocates,
shopmen, artists, actors, students, archi-
tects, physicians-in short, of every
profession, and of almost every class OF
society. Inquiries having beeninstituted,
it was aseertained that the lady had
married eight or ten years before, but, be-
ing of romantic disposition, had soon
violated her fidelity to her husband, and,
having abandoned him, had INDUCED
openly in intrigues with every young
man who struck her fancy. Her relations
with each were, however, of short dura-
ton, owing to the fckleness of her dis
position; but having, it appears, sort
of monomania for making wills, she reg
ularly drew up one in favor of every new
lover. Each will thus set aside that which
preceded it; but the last of all was valid
The Judge dc Paix caused the person
named in this last one to be sought for.
and he turned out to be a young artist
without fortune. He was warmly con-
graduated on his good luck, and calcu-
lated on being placed in comfortable
circumstances for hfe-the lady having
an income of 10000 francs a year. But
few days ago the husband presented
himself, and destroyed all the artists
hopes by producing his marriage contract,
which established him inheritor of all his
wife might leave at her death"

COMPANY -TIfROUGH PASSAGE TO


COMPANY THROUGH PASSAGE TO
CALIFORNIA.
TIME public will be gratified to learn that the
| United States Mail Steamship Company are en-
abled to announce that their arrangements are now
complete for sending PASSENGERS through from
New York to San Francisco and back.
In the first attempts of this Company to meet
the wants OF travel to California, by providing
ships on the Pacific, in connection with their
ships from New York to ChagreS, they were pre-
vailed upon at the urgent solicitation of the great
number then desrous to go out, to sell tickets for
through passages from Panama in advance for
their ships then going round This was done
from desire to accommodate those who could
procure passages in no other quarter, and by
which, whatever might be the detention they
would reach San Francisco sooner than by any
other line. Unforeseen difficulties, and the preva-
lence Of fever at Rio de Janeiro at the time, pre-
vented their ships from reaching Panama soon
as anticipated, and caused detention at the 18th.
mus, which was increased by the Impotence OF
passengers in going forward, against the advice
of the Company, at earlier day than the ship
could possibly reach Panama.
These Interruptions are now all removed.
Three Of the four ships Of the Company, intended
for the Pacific service, have arrived at Panama,
and several of them have performed trips to San
Francisco and back. So that the Company are
now able to give the public the assurance that the
voyage through from New York to San Fran
cisco, will be performed with regularity and des-
patch.
Their Pacific Line, from Panama to San Fran
cisco, consists OF the
REPUBLIC, Capt. HUDSON.
ITHMUS, Capt. HiTcHcocK.
COLUMBUS, Capt PEcK
ANTELOPE, Capt. AcKLEy.

to Chagres, of the
GEORGIA, Capt. Porter, U. S. N.
OHIO, Capt. SCHENcK, u. S. N
FALCON, Capt. HARTsTEN, U. s. N.
The connection between the two lines will be
carefully and regularly kept up, that no delay
beyond the usual stay Of the ship in port at Pana-
ma, will arise.
The large size, well known speed, and superior
accommodations OF their New York and Chagres
Line, and the speed and accommodations of the
ships Of their Pacific Line offer the most certain,
rapid, and pleasant through passage to California.

At La Fayette, Alabama, on the 29th uItimo,
Mrs. FRANCES E., wife Of the Rev. VIM. H.
Moore.
Mrs. M. was lady distinguished for her rare
mental endowments, and for her liberal efforts in
the cause Of education. Descended from a high
family, and with the means Of enjoying the lux
ures of life, she preferred the cares OF teaching
her sex. The removal, by death, Of her happy
influence in favor of intellectual progress, will be
felt throughout the whole State in which she re-
sided. Her loss is public calamity.
