FArAL AFFArR.1A few weeks since
at Gilmer, Upsher county, Texas, man
named Robert Bledsoe.Ax shot On the
public square, BY three citizens of that
place. The deceased is said to have
been notorious and abandoned outlaw,
and a source Of perpetual annoyance
and apprehension to the whole commu-
nifty. The Texas Star says that he was
accustomed to ride over the public
square every day with voIley of oaths
against all good people, a fiourishing of
guns and gascouade, trampling on the
laws of the country and the feelings of
all, abusing private families, and evin-
cling generally reckless disregard of
public decency, order and propriety.-
He was warned not to come again on the
square, but, careless of all remon-
he did so, and was cOOIy shot
down. The actors in the scene forth
with surrendered themselves, and, upon
the testimony of the uhole community,
were instantly acquitted.

TPAmong ssthe thousand and one" objects
of interest that viii weh repay the visit, to a
stranger in Cincinnati, is E. C. .HAwxNs' Da-
puereotype Gallery, ON Vine street, between
Fourth and Fifth. While in the "Queen City"
we spent half an hour very pleasantly there,
looking at a number of likenesses Of the great
and gifted of our 1and-Statesmen, Authors,
Artists and Actors Mr.. H has oneof the best
collections of portraits in the city, and has
made, we suppose, more Improvements than
almost any other artist engaged in the bust
ness. Two improvements particularly struck
our attention, one Of them he calls the NebulaT
Daguerreotype, which, for miniatures of chill
dren, far SURPRISES the old method. 1t consists
of beautifully rariegated cloudy appearance,
and the head emerging, as it were, from the
cloud or mist that appears surrounding it on
all sides. But the most striking objects in his
Gallery, are the Soloerapks, which are neither
more or less than Daguereotypes upon paper,
and colored according TO nature, possessing all
the beauty Of finely painted miniature, with
the fidelity of aDaguereotype picture. Those
of our friends who are visiting Cincinnati,
and who want life-like resemblance of them
selves or friends, must not forget to give Mr..
HAWKINS call.
The following We copy from late number
of the Daily Times, and fully endorse all that
it contains:
SoLooRAPHs.-There is nothing probably ex-
citing more interest in artistic circles at pres
ent, than the sOlograph pictures, taken by Z.
G. Hawkins, Of Vine street. He has far out
stripped all other operators, and is now making
decidedly the best pictures in the Union. The
Messrs. Whipple, Of Boston, have succeeded In
making very fine transfers of daguerreotyPes
and other pictures, but he takes his from the
propria persone, The advantages this picture
possesses over the common daguerreotype are
many, but the most prominent is, that 1t has al
the fruthfulness, and none of that pecullarIty
that REQUIRES it to be held in a certain light to
be seen. And, beside, after the first impression
is taken, any number can be transferred to pa
per, which are as fine as mezzotint, and very
cheap. When finished in colors, they are not
surpassed by the richest paintings on ivory.

New DREss.-The Journal dons its

Of any of its contemporaries-so think
those at whose expense and trouble it
has been accomplished, and so it is hoped
the patrons of the Journal will pro-
nounce. We do not intend to boast,
but do claim that we present our readers
with a neatly executed journal. We
purchased the type of Mr.. HORACE

Those of our patrons who have, by

the expense of new material, we trust
will find in the improvement of our sheet
a substantial acknowledgement of their
kindness, and that those who should
have aided, but did not, may be remin-
ded thereby of their duty towards the
publisher, and come forward and dis
charge it without further delay, is our
sincere desire. May we not hope, fur
ther, that those who have heretofore ex-
tended no helping or encouraging hand,
viii take this as an earnest that we in
tend % try to deserve larger circulation,
and come forward and assist in these
endeavors. Our termsare low-too low
to pay well for the expense weekly in

SCHOOL CoMMIssIONER.-Som time
sneesa great numbersof teachers and
other friends of education, published a
communication in the Journal of Educa-
ton, recommending Mr.. L. ANDREWS as
acandidate for School Commissioner
Mr.. A. has devoted his attention for
years to the subject of education, and is
represented by the earnest friends of
Common Schools as every way fitted for
the place. We do not know with which
political party he has acted-certain it
IS he has never been prominent as apol
itician. We are yet to meet with SIM
gle Democratic paper that seconds this
suggestion of the friends of Common
Schools. They fear that probably Mr..
A. may, at some time during his life,
have voted Whig ticket, and this is
reason enough with them to reject him,
no matter how much he may have ac-
complished for the cause of popular ed
ucation heretofore, or how eminently
qualified he may be for the position
The fast men of that party have no 9TH
er idea but that offices were created for
them, and not for the public good-they
must make the school question a party
one, and Democrat must have the
place. We shall see who place party
above every other consideration in this
matter.
