UrERA House.. -This "Temple" of amuse-

respectable and attentive audience. The
grand Equestrian Spectacle of "Mazep-

At the conclusion of the first act, where
Mazeppa, under the assumed name of CASH

Another SLAYER CAPTURED AND BROUGHT
INTO HAMPTON RoADs.-Lieat Tyler, U. S.

We learn that he accompanied a captured
SLAYER to Hampton Roads, where she was
grounded IN coming up. She is a bark
said to be the bark Virginia, sold by Capt.
Chamberlaine, OF tAis city, several months
ago, to a firm in New York, and fitted out
by them for that purpose.
| When captured, we learn she had no slaves
en- board, though they were 10 the act of
embarking at the ii ne, as some five or
six hundred of them were drawn up on the
beach, ready to be put on board the vessel.
Lieuts. Brown and Tyler were put on
board as prize officers, from the Soopof-
War Portsmouth, Capt. Calhoun, which
vessel made the capture. The Sirginan,
Formerly named the Bremen,) was then
(the 10th of Febuary,) at the mouth of Con-
go river, on the coast of Africa.
Lieuts. Brown and Tyler took six seamen
from the Portsmouth to man the bark, and
after being out four days three of the crew
Portsmouth made an attempt at mutiny,
which proved futile. They were placed in
irons, and constant watch kept over them.
The Lieu is. are very much worn down by
their constant vigilance since the attempt
at mutiny.
Lieut.. Tyler held consultation with the
Commodore of this station, on his arriv-
al, and the Commodore immediately ordered
the steamer Anaccsta to go down and bring
the bark up into the harbor.
The Captain of the bark is named Matthias
Lynn, Sweede by birth, but naturalized
citizen OF this country. The crew of the
bark consisted OF Capt. Lynn, the supercar-
go, and six seamen, who are a II on board the
bark.
At the time OF her capture she was pump

nal din which has been echoed to
their song of hostility to the Sonth is
music to their ears. Their aim is to
array sectionalism upon their side, and
thus promote strife and confusion.
We should meet their elamor with the
contempt Of a people who fear no in
Hvasion of their rights, and instead Of
feeding the fame of discord, which q
few in both sections have kindled,
lend our endeavor towards quenching
it altogether. How happy would have
been the result if the attention Of
statesmen, North and South, had been
as lEAch directed towards promoting
the strife ofsections and the antagon-
ism which are fast dividing US. Halt
the care, half the thought which has
been spent in the endeavor to meet
sectionalism by sectionalism, bitter
ness by bitterness, and abolitionism
by disunion, would have made this
people to-day a happy, united and
hopeful nation.

OF the party paying the Sheriff So for

that he must pay for the tine'they jury
has been engaged in tho case, not
less sum, however, than six dollars.
This will relieve County treasures to
some extent, at least.
Gentlemen of the opposite side Of
the House are somewhat troubled at
the perversity Of the central organs"
which refuse to print the official pro-
ceedings of'he Legislature at less
rate than four dollars per column of
solid nonpariel type. Last session the
publishers ofthe papers charged $500
per day. They will not accept the
same compensation for the samO work
again. There appears to exist in the
minds of many decided repugnance
to the press. The feeling is not con-
fined to any party. Gentleman seem

are bound to kill it, or smuggle it out
ofthe way before coming to a direct
vote. In Committee Of the whola,
they endcavored to kill it by proposing
amendments of a ridiculous character,
containing filings at Postmasters, and
Democrats generally. The bill being
reported back without amendment,
was referred to the Committee on Ju-
dietary, when, we opine, it will rest

ton. 1t is well written document,
moderate in length and confined al
most exclusively to State affairs. Tho
following extract has reference to the
sectional agitation now raging 80
fercely inSsome portions of the North
and the South:
"In concluding this inaugural, l
am irresistiSlyled to reflections which

tage to any of my audience. When
Texas united her destiny with that of
the government of the United States,
she took upon herself duties and res
possibilities, for the faithful perform.
ance Of which we are pledged as a
State. She entered, not into the
North, nor into the South, but into
the 'Uuion. Her connection was not
sectional, but national; and however
distinct and diversified her interests
may be, as compared with those other
States, she relies upon the same con.
stitutiOn as they to secure her the en-
joyment of her rights. Making that
constitution the guiding star Of our
career as State, let our rivalry be to
more closely to it than
any Of our sister States. 1t inculcates
faithfulness to the Union; let us be
faithful to It.
Let us, in our relationships with
the general gov vernment and with the
States of the confederacy, allow none
to excel us in our desire to promote
peace and harmony. When our rights
are aggressed upon, let US be behiud
none in repelling the attack; but let
us be careful to distinguish between
the acts of individuals and those of a
people-between the wild rawlings of
fanatics and that public sentiment
which truly represents the masses ola
State. It's in The diversity or opin.
ion that Democracy may rest securely.
The right to think adversely to us is a
guarantee to American republicanism,
and though this privilege may often be
carried to extremes, and to our detr.
ment, yet the very safety of our insti-
tutions depends upon our maintaining
it as a republican principle. When
thought becomes treason, the traitor is
as much the enemy of one section as
the other. Its overt acts we must re-
pei. Its expression by those inimical
to our institutions, where they do not
exist, need affect US nothing. The
alarm at their endeavors is needless,
and but strengthens them. The eter.
