Mark you, My Blood is Bad How commonly
do we hear this expression returned in answer to
the inquiries of parent or a friend about your
health. My blood is bad as if it were matter
of little import either in its nature or consequen

that it should be thus slightly passed over? Ask
that emaciated youth who is sinking fast into an
early grave-in the Spring time of his life-in the
prime of his years. Ask him, what was the
cause of his consumptive cough, his hectic cheek,
his worn and wasted frame He will answer " Bad

was on fine evening in the year -, that
the capajn of one of the immense floating

quietly seated, together with "A party of pas
scngrrs, in he cabin, playing whist, when
the mate suddenly entered, and going up to-
the captain, exclaimed
"Out of wood sin"
" Ring the bell, and show hight then" :"
answered the commander, as he shufficd his

Soon the mate appeared.

In an interview with some American gentlemen
held with the Imperial and the lovely Eugenie,
she asked them of the extent of the public lands
in the Republic. and the admiring American re-
lated the millions of acres. What" said this
bright daughter Of Spain, $50 much as that, and
yet you want morc" And within her life it will
come to u.s.
This is from a New York paper "The
bright daughter of Spain" ought to be the
very last to object to expansion in any sense,
considering that she is the reputed author
of the present fashion of expanded and ever
expanding crinoline considering, too, that
no one has made more brilliant annexation
than her Majesty.
Precisely what the parvenu Emperor did
for her, we propose to do for the lovely gem
of the Gulf, of whose gorgeous beauty the
too susceptible Brother Jonathan has become
enamored to degree surprising that Of the
blase French ruler. He proposes to take
under his charge, to make part and parcel
of himself and eudow with all his worldly
goods-his priceless treasures of liberty and
republicanism lovely but rather forlorn
and prosecuted dalnsel, whom a cruel old
Blue Beard seeks to keep forever shut up in
a gloomy castle or frigid convent.
Just such delightful change as the love:
ly Eugene experienced when transferred
from the stately pomp, gilded poverty, and
seedy grandeur of Madrid to the ever-lively,
sparkling, bright, happy scenes of dear, de-
lightful Paris, with any amount of pin
money and exhaustless resources of jewelry
and haberdashery, just such felicity will be
the portion of fair Cuba when she passes FROM
the shriveled arms of the impotent old Cat
alan and the dim scenes Of his prison. palaces,
to the vigorous embrace, the bouudless gem
erosity and open,pursed liberality of the
sturdy young gentleman in striped pants
and starry vest.-N. O. DeLta.

PARIsIAN ADvERTIsING.-Recently upon
the Bois do Boulogue, in Paris, in well'ap
pointed barouche and pair, was to be seen a
gentleman, having on either side Of him a
lady in ball dress, and without bonnet.
One of these had protusion of golden locks
exquisitely arranged the other was bru.
nette with hair equally fine. Both turned
their heads towards the apparently favored
gentleman sitting between them, whom they
seemed to be addressing with great anma-
tion. The first impression on the spectators
after admiring the beautiful hair Of these
ladies', was one of wondermeut that they
should venture abroad in the cold wind so
slightly clad. On closer inspection, it ap-
peared that they were wax figures, and thai
the carriage was the anbulatOry advertise
ment of hair dresser.

TExAs--We are informed, says the Dal-
las Herald that at the recent conference
between Lieut. Cen Scott and Gen. Twiggs.
held at New Orleans, to devise more efficient
means Of protection Of the frontier Of Texas,
they agreed to propose the re-occupatiOn of
Camp Cooper, on the Clear Fork Of Brazos,
aud the establishment If posts along the
overland route to the Rio Grande, the posts
to be occupied by the 7th Infantry, now in
Texas, Camp Cooper to be the headquarters.
These measures will have to be sanctioned
by the President before carried out. If
adopted, the post at Beiknap will probably
b. abandoned. What effect the recent dis
turbances in the Lower Reserve may have
on them remains to be seen. In m event,
we think, will they prevent the establish
ment of posts along the overland mail route
for It's protection.
The breaking up Of the Indian Reserves
on the frontier would be better for the In
daus, as they would then be removed to the
Reserve leased from the ChOctaws for 80
years, and comprising 100 square miles,
whereas they are now pent up within the
HhlltS OF thFce leagues. Nub oilly Will 1uo
people of Texas, and especially those of the
Northern frontiers, be losers, in pecuniary
point of view, but whcu the military posts
and the Reserves are broken up, the frontier,
instead of advancing, will probably recedc.
We take away Il bulwark that protects us
against the hefts, the tomahawk and scalp
ing knife of the wild tribes of the plains.
he Reserve Indians have themselves been
a tower of strength TO the frontier. They
have proved themselves valuable and reliable
allies, and have fought calamity for us against
the wild indians.
