lNsURREcTIoN IN TExAs.-A despatch from St
Aous,received yesterday announced on the aptbor.
lty OF an extra of Bonham, Texas paper, issued
ON inc lth INST, that widespread conspiracy II,
oeVastate the Northern part of that State had been
discovered. The roundabout way bv which this
news was received would lead us to give but l;tt,a
circuit 10 tne report, but despatch subsequently,
receiveo from New orleans confirms the startling
intelligence. ltseems that the discovery was made
All the Obstructive fires that have recently occurred
in that part of Texas only the forerunpers of
grand coniagration of the property of the slave
holders that was to take place on the anspinc ooo
tion day. Theleaders of the affair are believed to be
white men, and several suspected persons have been
ordered to leave the State. The loss of propertv
by lire in that country for few weeks past is est
mated to be S700, ZOO, all believed to be the work
OF abolition incendiaries and negroes.
NEW MUsEc.-We acknowledge the receipt of a
ne" national song, entitled ''The Union," which
mas peen admirably set to music by Professor J. NJ
Deems, OF this city. The words, by F. de II. JAN
vier, breathe sterling spirit of patriotism that is
quite refreshing in these days of sectional differ
ences. good patriotic song not unfrequently
exerts healthy influence in times of high party
excitement, and, if the music strikes the popular
taste, may be sung at social gatherings, and on
public occasions, perhaps, for years, perhaps for
century or more. We are told that somewhat |
romantic incident is to take place to-day in con-
nectlon with the song under notice. 1t is to be
sung in chorus at the Smith sonian Institute Wash
ington, this morning, by thirty-three young ladies'
each one representing State in the Union We
should be heartily glad to hear that States were
inclined to be as harmonious as their fair repre-
sentatives and that they showed an equal alacrity
in beating time "to the music of the Union'
"
The GREAT EASTERN Coming AFTER ALL.-We are
glad to announce that this prodigy of naval archi-
lecture may be expected in the waters of the Chsa-
peake Bay about Wednesday next This result has
been brought about by the active exertions of our
principal Railroad and Steamboat Companies aided
by the contributions of many of our wealthy and
liberal citizens. 1t will present an occasion of
greater interest for excursionists than has ever
before occurred, and we are sure that the country
for hundred of miles around will send in its popu
lation to visit and explore this wonder of the great
deep. The most ample arrangements will doubt
less be made for their transportation and accommo
dation on land and water. When it is remembered
that such an opportunity may not occur again in a
lifetime, it will be well for all who possibly
spare the time to take advantage of it.
REPAIRS OF THE STATE HousE.-We are gratiied
says the Annapolis Gazette, to observe that Governor
Hicks is making very judicous expenditure of
a part of his contingent fund, in making highly
necessary repairs in and about the State house.
The Executive chamber, the rounda, and the from
entrance, together with the wall around the
grounds are in the hands of the workmen, and the
Governors judicious expenditures will. think,
| save the State a large sum inthe future.
BALTIMORE MARINE INSURANCE CoMPANY.-No do |
nestle institution has ever started under more IA
| SVrauic auspices tnan this Company We have |
| reason to believe that those interested in marine
risks have already given very substantial evil
dence of their confidence in its strono administers.
ton, and that the business thus far transacted in
the office is much larger than would have been an
ticlpated in its infancy.
| ARREST OF THE SUPPOSED MURDERER OF ADAM |
hYLE.-A man named Logan was arrested vester-
day, at Tobacco Warehouse No. g. charged with
tne murder oil Adam b. Kyle. 1t is said that the
proof against him is very strong, and he was at
once identified by the woman Dochterman, in
whose house the deed was done. All the particu
lars which have transpired will be found in our
| local columns.
TELEGRAPH TO ANNAPoLIs-We learn that some
OF the leading citizens of Annapolis have taken
up the project of building telegraph line from
tnae city TO the junction, along the route of the
Annapolis and Elkridge Railroad. The capital re-
CURED Is said to be only $4,000, which, certanly
can easily be raised. Such line would be great
public convenience especially during the session of
the Legislature
IHE CATTLE DIsEAsE.-The Commissioners sent |
out py ohlo to examine the cattle disease in Mas
sachusetts, report that the disease, although con-
taglous is easily managed, and that it is not likely
ever TO obtain any serious hold upon the herds in
Tue western States. The State Agricultural So |
cety of New Jersey have decided to exclude neat |
cattle from the next annual exhibition.
OLD POINT CoMFoRT.-It has been stated that tho
Hygeia Hotel, at Old Point Comfort, could not sc
oommodate any more visitors, but we have learned
that although they have large company there at
present, yet there is fine accommodations for 90
many more as wish to avail themselves of the in.
vlgorating sea breezes and baths there to be en-
joyed. ..-....
