"Lite Of Samotel Houston. G. g. Ey-
ans, Philadelphia."
"There is no campaign in modern
military history which for it's extent,
although attended with such disastrous
results, although eventually ending in
the liberty of the Republic, than that
conducted by General Samuel Houston,
during the years 1836-37 in the defence
Of the Americans then settled upon the
frontiers Of Mexico. In briefperiod,
with a small band of Heroes hastily rails
ed en- m0SSe, and lily armed and accout
tired, the brilliant defence Of the Alamo,
was made forever glorious by the bloody
massacre, perpetrated by the Mexicans.
This unfortunate event which showed
valuable lessons and glorious illustra-
lions Of the valor ofour citizen soldiers,
and of the genius of the Great Chief
and hero, ought not to be forgotten or
hastily glanced over 1t is believed
that the campaign during the Texan
war has not received full justice in the
narratives which were published, the
numerous merits of which were marred
by serious errors. BY comparing these
various versions, and by consultation
with those who played prominent parts
In this event of our history, it is believ
ed that this Biography Of the Texan
Hero, which is Invested of cumbrous
details Of military technicalities, is as
faithful and exact as it is practicable to
render narrative of this description.
The sole desire of the author has been
to do full justice to American valor and
patriotism, and to present truthful and
vivid pictures Of that memorable war
and OF the conduct of the great Chief
who springiDg from the people, front
Ter warrior, without science, art or ex
Iperience in military affairs, was enabled
through the smiles Of Providence, by
his stout heart, his sagacious intellect
and ardent patriotism, to repel, punish
and nearly destroy some Of the mos
merCenary soldiers that were ever SEN
forth by any power on earth. Ought
such deeds to be permitted to fade from
from the memories ola patriotic people,
No 1t is a reproach to the present gen
Grafton, that there is not more spirit ex
ercised by our government in defending
the rights ofour citizens and extending
that protection to them which has ever
been sanctioned by every true son O
liberty.

A FEW PROBABLE TRUTHs.-That of
1000 men and 1000 women taken at
random in Islands, there is on both sids
and equal percentage of good, indiffer-
ent and bad the Indifferent predomi
mating. That any lady who may be
readlngthese lines belongs emphatically
to the category Of the good. That the
wees and virtues, the qualities and de-
tects OF the two sexes are different; but
hat, on the whole, there is equilibrium.
That all men are not brutes, nor all wo-
men angels. That in so close a UNION
as that Of married life the stronger will
prevails, and that the force of will is as
strong with women as with men but
that 1t works otherwise to its results.
That the power ofwoman is based upon
her thorough perception and apprecia-
