q An effort was being made in London
and Paris to negotiate the bonds of the Gal
weston and Houston (Texas) railroad company
amounting to $3.50 900. This gave rise to a
controversy between the agent and the London
Times's money writer-the latter appealing, in
support Of his warning against the loan, to tn.
course of the State of Texas on the debt of the
former Republic. The first notice of the
Times was owing to an intimation that Lieut
Perry, of the British army, for when a publ,
donation has been recently subscribed, to com
pensate for the bad treatment he received by
court martial, was about to invest his money

ESCAPE OF SMITH o'BRlEN.

1t has already been stated that news Of the
escape OF Smith OBrien from Van Deman's
Land was brought by the steamer Africa. It
is said that letter TO that effect, was received
by John Mitchell, announcing the fact that the
family Of Smith o Brien, at Limerick, had re-
ceived intelligence Of his escape. The letter,
dated at Dublin, stating the particulars of his
fight. will appear in the first number Of the
Citizen, which is the new paper soon to be
published by John Mitchell.
The Freeman's Journal has the following
from the Limerick Qreland) Reporter, dated
Dec. 18th
We have jus: been handed letter from q
highly respectable Irshman, resident, in Mel
bourne, giving full details Of the escape of
Smith O. Brien from the penal exile to which
the British Government doomed him, and from
which he has been released by the courage and
fidelity Of few Irish frien4s in the colony, and
the sympathising aid of the commander Of an
American trading vessel, which was in the
offing TO take him away to the free shores Of
Columbia There is no doubt whatever Of the
fact, and We need not state that we feel con-
siderable pleasure in being the first medium Of
announcing it. The writer Of this letter was
one of those who assisted Smith o Brien in his
escape. We may add that Smith O'Brien was
hound by no parole
