Going into Voluntary Servitude.

Going into Voluntary Servitude.
The Legislature of Texas, at its last
session, passed an act allowing any free
person Of African descent, living or com.
ing into that State to select master and
become slave for life. The process is
petition by the black to the Circuit
Court, stating the selection and the name
Of the master, "who must be man Of
good moral repute." Notice Of the pc
tition must be adverti, ed for four weeks.
The law provides as follows:
"Ou the appearance in open Court of both
the petitioner and the person designated in
the petition as the desired master, the Court
shall proceed to examine each party separate
ly, as well as the subscribing witness to the
petition, and such other persons as the Court
may see fit; and at such examination the
District Attorney shall be present and see
that full examination is bad, and he
shall represent the petitioner in such exam
nation; and if upon such examination the
Court shall be satisfied that there is no fraud
Dor collusion between the parties, that the
proposed master is a person Of good repute,
and there is no good reason to the contrary,
the said Court shall have power, by decree
entered on the records of the Court, to grant
the prayer of the petitioner. and from the
entry OF such decree the property i'll said
person of African decent, us q slave, shall
vest in the person chosen as master, and
| his rights and liabilities, and the condition
of the petitioner shall in all respects be the
same though such petitioner had been
born slave to the master so chosen"
The mother can enslaye, in the same
way, with herself, all her children under
fourteen years ofaSe.
Under this law several free blacks
have chosen master and gone through
the proceedings in open Court, Of CON-
mitting themselves to the fortunes OF
their chosen masters. The law provides
that such sl,ves shall be subject to the
debts of the master contracted before the
period of enslayement. One case that
occurred before the Court in Bastrop, is
thus described by visitor:

FROM New ORLEANs.-We are indebt-
ed to the elegant steamer Republic for
New Orleans papers Of the 18th inst.
The Republic left New Orleans five hours
after the crack steamer Woodford,
and passed her before reaching Lake
Providence. The Republic will leave
Louisville to-day and be here to-mor-
row.
The New Orleans papers are filled
with accounts Of the destructive conse-
quences of the flood both on the Missis-
sippi and Red rivers. The fears of an
inundation had affected the spirits of the
people and had had depressing infu-
ence on the money and other markets,
as the loss Of crops and properly might,
it was apprehended, affect the standing
Of many planters, and their agents. At
the last accounts the waters were reced-
ing and the worst was known.
