The Herald and Its Real Life Scene.

The IIerad and Its Real Life Scene.
The above sheet, in its issue Of Saturday
purported to give conversation which took
place the proceeding day on the street, between
Senator Jenes and one John, alias Judge King
Of Post Office notoriety in this vicinlty. We
hope that the amiable editors Of the Herald,
may, for their own sake and the public edi6ca-
ton continue to cultivate their present taste in
the line OF street selections for the entertainment
of their readers. By so doing, they cannot fail
to awaken in the public mind, a high sense of
appreciation OF their literary taste, not to say,
just estimate Of their true moral worth. But let
us come to the conversation in question and see
how far the statement Of the Herald is true.
It is represented in the Herald that Senator
Jones met the alias Judge above spoken OF, and
accosted him in the abrupt manner alledged.
Ii would seem from the manner in which the
s.rea! lite scene" is presented, by that paper,
that Senator Jones stopped the alias Judge in
the street, unexpectedly and against his will, in
order to abuse him and Judge Clark. True,
such is not the exact language of the Herald
but such is the impression which it seeks 70
leave upon the mind Of the reader.
Now, what are the facts Whilst Senator
Jones was walking along the street, he was stop
ped by the alias Judge, who approached him
with all the apparent cordially of a true and
5sincere friend, exclaiming-"How are you
General? am glad to see you; was just
thinking of going up to your house to see you. :
When the reader is told that this same alias
Judge had been, and was, up to the very mo-
ment Of his thus greeting the Senator, abusing
him both on the street and off; in public and IN
private, as dishonest and corrupt man and
scoundrel, as unworthy of the confidence Of
the people for the U. 8. Senate, and all within
the knowledge Of Senator Jones, he will not be
surprised al the reply which the alias Judge re-
ceived The warm blood Of Jones rose like
any honest mans would, to fever height, and h
could not stand in the presence Of such bare.
faced, lying hypocricy, without administering L
il the rebuke it so richly deserved and receiv
ed Such are the facts, and we hope that thei
impression has been Of 50 lively nature as &c
teach the alias Judge, that if he ,oiH dance to
the tune Of the hypocrite, he must expect to pay
the fiddler.
Before closing, we may take occasion to OBJ
serve that, men Of doubtful notoriety are Away,
expected to exercise certain degree of caution
in appearing before the public, if they would
expect the public to deal as lightly with ths m
as their sins at times, might seem to require.

is, the rapidly approaching dissolution Of that

By the arrival Of the steamship Texas, fro n

important news from the Rio Grande, giving

and battle between the Government troops
and the revolution,sts.
Il appears that a body of 6)o Of the ,tionll
guards, which had been stationed at Matamo
ras. had left that town, and had encamped on
the American side OF the Rio Grande. They
afterwards crossed the river above Ma,amoras,
and marched upon Victoria to attack Governor
Cardenas and General Arabarers, who were in
command of large body of revolutionsts.
