FROM .TExAs.-The Galpeston Ne,cs, of the 18th,
has the following in relation to the discovery Of
gold mines in Hamilton's Valley, above Austin,
which has already been noticed in this papers.
"The most important item of news is the discov-
cry of gold mines in Hamiltons Valley, above Aus
tin. We have heard rumors of these mines by gen.
lemen from the interior, but had ocular proof
OF their existence in specimen which Capt Tai
bot exhibited to us this morning. 1t is piece of
quartz rock, little larger than common sized
marble, with pieces OF bright gold attached to it.
The color of the gold is clearer than California
specimens"
The Bulletin has the following information on
the subject.
ga new Ell Dorado is now being found in our
own beautiful State. Rumors are rife of large
quantities of gold being found throughout the
western portion of the country. We understand
that there is great excitement prevailing at Austin
San Antonio, Saguin, Gonzales, and other points
up the country, and that several companies have
left those points within few days past, in search
of the hidden treasure, and Others are making Tea-
dy to follow. These mines are found on the Upper
Colorado, Hamiltons Valley, and various other
places. and are said 10 be very rich, supposed by
some to equal the best California mines.
We have been shown letter from merchant
at San Marcus, fully confirming the above reports.
If these reports sh~uld prove to be we'll founded,
have every reason to believe they will, it will
turn the tide of emigration from Australia and CAL
ifornia TO State, being accessible than
either of these points.
One pelson sold piece of quartz in San Anto-
MIA for S25.

THURSDAY MORNING, MAY 5. 1858.
Aldermen.

We have noticed the growth lately of prac-
tice among our city Aldermen which is certainly
WRONG, and whch..we presume the Allotment hem
selves would not pursue were they TO consider fer
moment its improperly. The habit alluded to,
is this: The Aldermen receive claims from indi-
viluals for collection, visit the debtor, get admis-
Sions from them, and then issue and try the case
themselves. This is wrong, and should not be
practiced blythe Aldermen or tolerated by the city
The tendency is manifest, and however upright
the intentions of the Aldermen, they cannot be
competent TO dof the collectors habits and assume
the judicial robes and render impartial decisions.
They would be more than mortal could they rem
der justice in such cases, and they should not be
expected to do better than they do. 1t not un-
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS that the Alderman is the prin-
cipal witness in the Appellate court, and the de-
cision is often affirmed by the evidence ofthe very
Alderman who decided the case below, and who
had previously acted as the agent of the plaintiff
Whether the Alderman gets a per cent for such
collections on judgements we do not know, but
presume that they are al least paid for collections
when made withoutsuit.
The Aldermen are doing injustice to themselves
by such course, and should at once abandon it,
and the city authorities should interfere and pre-
vent it at once. Such collecting business should
not be permitted TO the Aldermen, but should be
confined to the Sergeant and his deputies The
ends of justice require that the judicial duties
should i'll no circumstances be even remotely con-
nected with remuneration depending upon their
judicial acts.
We have long thought that the system of fees
now adopted for the compensation of our city mag
istra.=s is radically erroneous in principle and
ought to be modified, all proceedings have ten
dency pLaintft0ards hich is universally remarked
We are well aware that our Aldermen would not
Intentionally do wrong, butthe tendency is SO man.
iest that it is placing much temptation in the
way and should be avoided. The system OF fees
is Objectionable, and the practice of attempting to
collect and then entering judgment. the agent be-
ing the same in both cases, is than objection
able. ouriustices are forbidden by law from prac-
ticing in their own courts even, and certainly our
Aldermen should be prohibited from practicing in
their courts and from giving judgment in their
Orn cases.

The Murder in Cleveland.

We published few mornings ago telegraphic
account of the murder of Mrs. Silsbee in Cleve-
land, who was found IN her house with her throat
cut. The Forest city has the following:
SILsBEE is the maiden name oft murdered wo-
man. A divorced husband lives in Elyria. She
has relatives residing in Wooster and La Grange.
A letter was found in her bureau, signed Gath.
ARINE SILsnEE,' who is supposed so be her mother
The letter was post marked Wooster Coroner
Schulz has an excellent wardrobe in his posses
sion which belonged to her; also the keys of her
residence, which she owned. He informs us that
some of her relatives are expected in this city to-
day. Strong hopes are entertained by our Police
that the murderer will be arrested. They think
they have discovered clue which will lead to his
detection. not ar
1t was stated in the evidence before the Coro-
ners Jury that Mrs. Silsbee was not woman of
reputable character. The letters found in her
premises have been subjected 10 the inspection of
few parties. As most of them were written in
this city, they are source of great annoyance to
the authors of many of them. We trust the au-
thcrities will immediately offer a reward for the
murderer; and would suggest that the propriety
of reward being offered, the amount of which
shall be contributed by our citizens. Every one
feels deep interest in having the mystery of the
murderers identity unravelled. The very fame of
our city is in jeopardy. We are sure that no stone
will be left unturned to bring justice, the fend-
ish assassin.

SHIPPING HEMP TO THE EASTERN MARKETs.-We
have repeatedly noticed, says the St. LOUIS Even
ing News, the shipment of small parcels of Hemp
from this city to the East by way the Ohio river,
and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. We are
glad to perceive that the quantity is increasing,
and yesterday the first bundled bales in one lot
went on board the steamer Elephant direct for
Wheeling, and thence over the Railroad to New
York. Within the week, nearly or quite 800 bales
have been shipped by this route; and when the
facilities are better for this description of freight,
and the cost Of transportation less, majority, if
not all, intended for Eastern markets, will go this
route. ~

what Did Mrs. Stowe go to England iorq

What Did Mrs. Stowe go to England for?
The National Democrat says that Mrs. HARRIET
BEEcHER SrowE, the authoress OF ssUncle Toms
Cabin has gone TO England to receive the plau-
dts and caressngs of the united arisocracy of that
country. And what fort Simply because she has
written book that bellies and ISLANDERS her own
country. As writer, we have a thousand men
and five hundred women in this country who are
farther superiors. Considered simply as 3 work of
nrt, Uncle Toms Cabin is a failure-both the plot
and the execution are bad-and it has been so con-
sidered by the best critics in this country and Eng
land. But it has had the benefit of immense
putting, and OF wild, rampant fanaticism on this
side OF the Atlantic, and of deep-seated hatred
of America on the other. This is the sole secret
of its remarkable success.
The Democrat remarks that Mrs. Stowe has not
been invited to England in consequence of the
talent she displayed in writing her book. Other
writers. far mole worthy of public respect, have
visited England and have been allowed 10 pass
their time as quietly in London as though they had
never written line.
WILLIAM G. BRYANT, one of the first of living
poets in the world, remained several weeks in
London, last winter in perfect secusion. Other
distinguished American writer's have met with the
same studied GOODNESS and neglect. "But," says
the Democrat, Gas soon as Mrs. Harriet Beecher
Stowe writes book abusing her own country, she
is invited to England by the "aristocracy," and a
castle opened for her reception. The vain and
foolish woman accepts. Does she suppose it is a
compliment offered to American authorship? No.
Does she suppose it is compliment offered to any
imagined genius in HERSELF No. She under
stands full well that all adulation is offered as an
insult to her country, and, SUCH she consents 10
receiveit.
The New York Christian Observer, the leading
organ of the religious denomination to which Mrs.
Stowe belongs, closes its able rel.e of her novel
in the following forcible Language:
"The work is, TO say the least of it, smutty
story; quite too familiar with the kitchen, and The
parlor of the debauchee, and the numerous yellow
mistresses who have the honor of presiding in thel
midnight scenes of corruption
Another prominet editor adds: ave have al.
ways considered it very doubtful book, disgrace,
full to its author and libel upon the country'

A Pictnra-

Mr.. Dickens, III q late number of Household
Words" gives sad picture of the popular mind
in England and Wales. He says that in the two
countries there less than six millions of per-
sons-or about one-tllird Of the entire populations
who can neither read nor write. This aggregate
includes infants, Of course, but of all the children
between five and fourteen, more than one half at
tend pl ace of public instruction. These state
ments, he adds, would be hard to believe, if we
had not TO encounter in every day life, cases Of
illiteracy which would be startling, if we were
not thoroughly used TO them. He continues:
"Wherever we turn, ignorance, not always al
lied to poverty, stares us in the face. If look
in the Gazette at the list ofpartnerships dissolved
not month passes but some unhappy man, rol-
ling perhaps in wealth, but wallowing in igno-
rance, is put to the experimentum crucis of his
mark. The number of petty jurors-in rural DIS
tricts especially-who can only sign with a cross,
ments of great local importance defaced by the
same Illuminating symbol, by persons whose Office
shows them to be not only 'men of mark but
men of substance. We have printed already spe-
cimens of the partial ignorance which passes I'M
der the ken of the P ost Office authorities, and we
may venture 10 assert, that such specimens of pen
manship and orthography are not to be matched
in any other country in Europe. housewife in
humble life need only turn to the file of her hus-
bands bills to discover heroglyphics which render
them SO many arithmetical puzzles. In short, the
practical evidences of the low ebb 10 which the
plaiaest rudments of education in this country has
fallen. are too common 10 bear repetition. We
cannot pass through the street, cannot enter a
place OF public assembly, ramble in the fields,
without the gloomy shadow of ignorance sweep
ing over us. The rural population is indeed in a
worse plight than the other classes.
