deeply to be regretted.

SrocK RA1sERs.-Texas is taking the lead of
every country on the globe in stock raising. She
is competing successfully in the markets Of New
Orleans, New York, and San Francisco, with the
stock raisers Of their respective States, We notice
that shipment Of beef cattle arrived in the city of
New York, and commanded the best market price.
Tho shipment not only paid expenses, bu. also a
handsome profit. Thousands and tens Of thou
sandg of cattle are shipped annually to difFeren,
sections OF the Union, and we doubt not that, for
the next ten years, our State will supply the prn-
cipal part OF the great Western Continent with
beef cattle. With her rich and fertile parties and
her lnPxhaustable pastures, she will attract the

Hon. LINN BoYD.-A writer in the New York
Times, sketchng the characteristics of some Of the
Distinguished men at Washington, says of Hon.
Linn Boyd:
"The chair of the House Of Representatives has
not, for many years, been filled by gentleman
OF more dignifed and imposing personal appear
ance than its present popular occupant. Col. Linn
Boyd. He must be between fifty and sixty years
OF age, but old father Time has dealt gently by
him. He is considerably above the average height
of mortals, tall and portly, and is possessed Of a
frank, manly, ruddy CONFERENCE.-The very pic
ture of health and bouhomn2le -surmounted by a
cone of fine silvery hair. His departments pecu-
Iiarly dgnifed and graceful and his manners are
uniformly courteous and conciliatory to all. One
thing, however, must be said 10 his everlasting
honor; unlike some of his predecessors, he al
ways administers the rules with the sternest IN
tegrity and impartialily. His most vehement politi
cal opponents all concede, that thus far he has
allowed no party or sectional considerations, even
in the stormiest contests 10 swerve him from fair
and honorable discharge Of his duties"

RUMeRED EXPEDITION AGAINST MEXICO
The statement of the New York Post that General
Alvarez is in that city, fitting out an expedition
against Mexico, does not seem to obtain much
credence. The Courier des Etats Unis, however,
has the following paragraph in relation TO the af
fair: -
"George Laws celebrated muskets have been
re-shipped OH the bark Caharine Augusta, now
lying at one of the North River docks, near Ca
nal street. The same vessel has taken on board
considerable quantity Of powder and supply
Of coal. The screw steamer Franklin has also
been purchased for $780, 900 by the parties con.
cerned in the Caiharine Augusta, and is
dergoing changes in Greenpoint ship yard. to fit
her for a vessel Of war. AS soon as these chang.
es are completed, the two vessels to sail the

AN INSULT To SOUTHERN Misunderstanding
New York Tribune thus pointedly insults Southern
merchants who do business in New York:
"Sontnern merchants do indeed keep away from
New York, for the reason that they can't Day
zieir debts; there is no doubt that if the iobbers of
this city had not trusted Southern traders for the
past three years. they would be great deal better
off than they are"
We hope Southern merchants will have suffi.
cIent self respect TO prevent New York from further
suffering by their custom.
