INocULATIoN FOR YELLOW FEvER.-The
New Orleans Delta of the 14th ult., says:

ave had the pleasure of meeting yesterday
distinguished physician, DIR. Scott, who has
won splendid reputation during long resi-
dence in the West India Islands, and whose
visit to New Orleans is the result, we believe,
of an invitation from several members of the
profession resident amongst us. DIR. SCOTS
experience has been very great, and his erud.
ton is equal to his experience. We believe
he is inclined to regard with favorable eye
the new system of incubation for yellow
fever, which has been extensively and success
fully practised this year. In more than three
thousand ca-es, we understand, its beneficial
effects have been tested; and assuredly, with
such fact before our eyes, We should not
treat the theory with contempt, merely be.
cause it is novelty"

y GREEK ROBIN HooD.-The French pa
pers have the following romantic account o
the manner in which the vicinity of Adriano
pie has been rid Of some troublesome rob.
brrs:
The house of a widow residing there was
entered aud robbed of valuables amnuntinu
to seven thousand piastres, her only wealth,
by seven men, who said they were members
OF the band Of Yan, Il cel, brated chief, who
has gained great renown in those parts; and
the poor woman used his name in making her
complaint. This parsonage is n sort of Fra
DIavolo, who seems to have modelled himself
after the brigand heroes of romance. He is
II Bulgarian by birth, and robs no one but rich
Turks, whom he hates, and has been known
frequently to give the proceeds of such m
expedition to any poor person he might meet.
He goes and comes in the villages, where he
is well received and treated like lord. 1t
must he said that the rustic police are not
much protection, for they are too often con
nected with the band themselves. This M.
Yani goes through the country robbing the
rich, bcfriending the poor, protecting the
widow and orphan, and even watching over
the magistrates to see that justice is metrd to
the rich and poor alike.
Snow, Yani, learned that he had been i'm
plcated in the robbery, and fully equipped,
paid the lady visit. Trembling, the poor
woman begged him to leave her the little that
remained.
but have never taken anything from
you,' said the brigand.
"Are you not then Yani 7" said she.
81 am most certainly Yani, and came to
obtain the description of those who have
abused my name and robbed you"
Reassured, the woman gave the required
description.
"Be content" said Yani, departing, "you
shall obtain justice. No one stains my name
with impunity, promise you"
Two days after, Yani brought back to the
widow all she had lost, and with it the heads
of the seven robbers who had taken it. He
had followed his defamers with a few of his
men, and had avenged his injured honor upon
them himself

FACTS IN REGARD TO THE TEXAS
ELECTIONS.

Most of our readers, says the New Orleans
Creole, will recolect the Hon. John A. vii.
cox, Of Mississippi, for considerable period
a representative of that State in the Congress
of the United States. Mr.. Wilcox, now a
resident o. Texas, writes rs follows to friend
on the subject Of the late elections in that
State. Our readers will observe the positive
proof thus afforded OF our oit.repeated asscr-
ton that the South is compelled TO resist tine
present naturalization laws if she would pre-.
serve the power at home TO maintain her own
institutions against the Interference of for
eIgners who are forming party within her
very bosom, hostile to her interests. He
writes
"lhere are about ten thousand foreign vo-
ters in this State, and rs far as has been heard
ly believe that tho American party did not
receive fifty foreign votes. cannot, at pre-.
sent, give you the result in this State. We
will. however, DO beaten, think, some two
or three thousand votes.
"You will then discover that Texas is com.
pletey under the control OF foreigners, nine
out OF ten Of whom are ab0litionists. In this
place there is published German Abolition
paper, and Northern Abolition societies have
established agencies here, to whom they send
by mail the New York Tribune, and other
abolition sheets, for gratuitous circulation. !
have been informed that one agency receives
five thousand copies Now, sure it is to me,
that it the people of the extreme Southern
States would think for moment they must
conclude that this is an artful stroke of the
Abolitionists TO make free State in Western
Texas, and thereby hem into compass us
narrow MS possible the slave power Since
my arrival here the Germans held Il large
convention in which they declared in favor of
the Abolition of Jules-of oaths in Courts of
Justice-of the Sabbath, and Of Slavery.
"On the day of the election here, the Ger
mans paraded their Flag (instead of the Ma.
tlona) through the streets. They marched
in procession through the city chanting Ger

Marsells hymn. never felt so mortified
and chagrired in the whole course of my life.
Yet it is said we have nothing to fear from
German influence! The Catholic Priests
took the field openly aganst the American
party, and threatened temporal, eternal and
spiritual damnalioE to him who voted the
American ticket; SO we did not receive one
Catholic vote"

Martha Wilcox daughter of Woodson Will

Coffee county, to the house Of MIR. John Hill,
where they were married by Alex. Mobley, a
Justice of the Inferior Court.
After they had been united, the youthful
couple started for the house of the bride.

creek on the road, John Quinn, the bride
groom, was shot in the back and instantly

which was Mr.. Johnathan Asheys, and gave

PRooF THAT THE Moon is NOT IsHABIrEp.
DR.. Scorcsby, in m account that he has
given of some recent observations made with
the Earl of ROSES telescope, says:
With reopect to the moon, every object on
its surface of 100 feet was now distinctly to
be seen; and he had no doubt that, under
very favorable circumstances, il would be 80
with objects go feet in height. On its sur
face were craters of extinct volcanoes, rocks
and masses of stones almost innumcpble.-
He had no doubt that IL such building as
he was then in were upon the surface OF tho
moon, it would be rendered distinctly visible
by these Instruments. But there were no
signs of habitations such rs ours-no yesti-
gcs of architecture remain to show that tho
moon is or ever was inhabited by rnce of
murtals similar to ourselves. II presented
no appearance which could lead to the sup
position that il contained anything like green
fields and lovely verdure Of this beautiful
world of ours There was no water visible
NOT n sea or n river, or even the measure Of
n reservoir for supplying town or factory
