The SEA. - Whilst engaged in
watching tho sea, the mind never be-
comes weary. Each successive wave,
as it curls its silver foam and dashes
on the shores, has some novelty in it.
There is no monotony in the motion Of
the wave, and the mind speculates mo
mentarily on each variety Of motion
and of form, finding in all an mex
haustible fund Of amusement, excite
ment, pleasure, aud wonder. 1t is no
less true than remarkable, that the
ocean is the only subtance which, in
its movement, has not wearying Of
feet upon tho gazer. All other forms,
animate or inanimate, may amuse fol
a moment, minute, or an hour but
their charm is quickly gone.

NEATNEss IN SPEEoH.-The nose
and the roof of the mouth may be
regarded as the sound or barrier
upon which the lips and tongue are
constantly playing, and their beauty
and regularity contribute much to the
neatncss of speech. The action of the
tongue is susceptible of high cultiva-
ton, and upon its activity depends
much of that silyery tone Of voice
which delights us. With many it lies
sluggish lump in the mouth, as when
pronouncing the letter L, it so blocks
up the passage that the voice escapes
with difficulty. The lips are employed
in the softer tones, and are chargea-
bic with the same lassitude of express
sion. The chin has an important Of
fee to perform, which is to operate
upon the hinge which opens and shuts
TIE mouth, for upon its activity We
either disclose a polite or vulgar pro-
nunciation. Every one must have
noticed in lazy speakers how the words
are drawled out of the mouth, as Mao.
for No. Others begin to talk before
their mouths are open, prefxing the
mouth-closing NJ to most OF their
words, as M-yes for yes Gdrdiner's
Music Of nature.

ELISHA STEVENS, at his residence five miles
bcloo Gonzales.
The deceased was n native Of North Carroll.
ma, and cmigrated. from Mississippi to Texas
in tho year 1913. He had been q consistent
member Of the Baptist Church for ten years
past, The wants Of tho Church, and the claims
Of suffering humanity, ever found him willing
to contribute to the;s aid. The discss SC of which
he died, was pronounced to be "Typhoid f..
YER" He fingered only a few days-his suf.
Erings were severe, all of which he bore will,
fortitudc and resignation. He leaves n wife
and seven children TO mourn his loss, with n
large numbor of relations and friends to lament
his departure, But ho leaves consoling tes,i.
mony IN his life and death, "that their loss is
his gain" As n friend he was kind and obi.
ging, rs a citizen honorable aud patriotic, ms n
parent and husband, he was niicctionatc and
s~elfdcnying. He needs no culogium to per.
pctuate his virtucs-they live enshrinod in

There arc high moral purposes and moro AZ
fccting considerations, which belong to such .
subject as this; we should aecustom ourselves
to view them rather as means, than as ends ;
rather ~ influences to govern hcman conduct,
and to moderate human suffering, than as cares
incident to . selfish foresight.
1t is to the living mourncr-to tho parent
weeping e,Ar her dead child--to the widow
whose heart is broken by unthpcly sorrow-
TO the friend-who misses at every turn tho
presence Of some kindred spirit It is 10 these
that the repositories Of tho dead, bring home
thoughts full Of admonition. Of instruction.
and slowly, but surely, also Of consolation {:
thcy admonish us by their very silence, Of our
own transitory being they instruct us In the
true valac OF life, and its noble proposes, its
duties and its destination they spread around
us in the "reminiscences o.! the past, sources Of
pleasing, though IN ,lancholy reflection. We
dwell with Pious fondncss on tho characters
and virtues of tho departed; and rs time in
terposcs It's growing distances between us and
them, we gather up with moro solicitude, tho
broken fragments Of memory and weave, rs it

seem to hear the tones Of their affection, whis-
pcring in our cars VIC listen TO tho voice OF
their wisdom, speaking in tho depths of our
souls; We shed our tears, but they are no long
CT tears Of agony; they relieve our dropping
spirits and course no longer over us with n
dcathly Mintncss; we return to tho world, and
we feel ourselves purcr, and better, and wiser,
for this communion with the dead. But the
subject grows yoluminous. She has gone
gone rs n sunbeam to revisit her native skies,
gone rs this mortal, to put OF the robes Of i'm.
mortality.
Mourn not for hor--shc sleeps in Christ
With all tho pious dead,
And fond remembrance of her worth
Will soothc the tears we shed.
Mourn not for hcr--in life's sweet morn
Her spirit passed away
Like som fair flower that opc'd at dawn,
And died at close Of day.
So hath she faded from the earth
Her lifc's short dream is DER.
Yet in our hearts her mcm'ry shall
BE shrincd for ever more,
So hath shc passed, and sadly now
We bear her to the tomb;
But well assured tut bliglted flower
Again in heaven will bloom.

The committee on Internal improvements al
inc senate. have given the bill for the con.
struction Of the Mississippi and Pacific Rail.
road a thorough examination, and Although
NOT yet reported, We are informed have come
10 the following conclusions: To extend the
time Tor the construction OF the first fity miles
to sfghteen months. To reserve from location
. oeit Of country sixty miles in width. to leave
open md undetermined tho point at which Il
but TO bear In such direction from where Il
does enter as 10 reach the 32d deg, of north
latitude In the vicinity Of the Trinity. They
recommend the striking out OF the nth, 10th,
i3th and l4th sections, N their substance il
provided for in the general railroad law of the
state. The principal difficulty il now tho iax-
ing the point ct which the road shall cross the
Trinity river. Twenty instead Of sixteen sec.
hos's OF land to the mile Arc given 10 the com.
pany who shall construct the road.
a bill to establish q common school system
is under consideration by the Scnate's commit.
tee on Education.
Thu bill in relation to presumption claims IS
Also urged upon tho Legislature. It changes
the existing laws Of presumption in several
material particulars.
A bill to ascertain what lands have escilcated
and been forfeited to tho State, under tho OK.
listing laws of forfeiture and cschcat, will pro-
badly be passed.
Mr.. Franklin has introduced into the House
a very comprehensive resolution, laying down
. basis for tho future policy Of the State. The
intention of this resolution il, we believe. at
some future day, 10 abolish State and county
taxes, and this object il to be attained by re-
fhsing to pay any Of the debt of Texas, except
that which has a special lcin thereon, out Of
the reserved five millions in the United States
Treasury, and compel the creditors to take
lands, and then NIL the monies now in posses,
sion together with that due to Texas, Is 10 be
permitted to accumulate until from the inter.
est. 1t shall reach the sum Of ten millions of
dollars, yielding an interest. The ten millions
to DO n perpetual fund, and tho Legislature to
dispose Of the interest alone. This interest Is
the source from which the State Government
Is to be supported, tho common school fund to
be annually increased, and internal improve.
mcnts to be aided. It provides for tho desig.
nation Of a Pacific Railroad route through the
State, and the reservation Of territory from
location, and from tho lands SO reserved,
In alternate sections, the creditors arc to be
paid,
Mr.. McCulloch has introduced q resolution
declaring the system known as the scaling
