TnE DRaUTu IN TEx4s.-We continue to
receive doleful accounts of the drouth in Tex
as, as in Georgia and other Southern States.
The New Orleans Delta of the Isl inst. says:
NO State has suffered so much from the
drouth as Texas. That rich State will not
produce enough grain to supply the demands
0! her own people, and actual famine is fear
ed n some portions of the country. Lands
that have produced as much as eighty bushels
OF corn to the acre, will not yield twenty
bushels the present season. 1t is pitiable to
observe the appearance of all the farms-the
corn is wishereI and DESTROYED, the grass on
the prairies is burnt 10 a crisp and the stock
everywhere is furnishing for food and water.
In some parts of the State there have been
no rains for seventeen weeks, and the heat is
more intense than has ever been known.
The change in this prolific and beautiful land
caused by heat and the absence of rain, is
such as to render the country scarcely recog-
nizablc. 1t is impossible to exaggerate tile
damage.
RUHoRED R~EsIGYArIoN OF SECRETARY CAss.
"A correspondent Of the Press from Wash
ington, writes
There is a rumor afloat that Gen. Cass will
not return to Washington, and that Dan'lS.
Dickinson is to replace him. 1t is certain
that Dickinson is here for something. lie is
more orthodox than General Cass, who
never could be made to say, as Dickinson did
the other night, that Douglas was ten-fold
worse than Lincoln"
ANOTHER DrsrNau1sHEp yrsIToR.-An En-
giish paper SAYS that the Hon. Benz. D'Israeli
contemplate avisit to the United States, ac-
c~ompanied by u few friends.
Tn Hartford Times learns that the census
takers down in Tennessee have found an old
lady scTeRty-five years old, who has built
three hundred yards of good rock fence with
in the last year, with her own hands, and
what is more, she gathered and carried in her
arms all the material Of which the fence is
built-and, says the Times, what is surpris-
ing, in spite of her wonderful fence perferm-
ances, IS not a candidate for the Presidency
of the United States.
Tue DRowNING CASE AT ATLANTIC Cry.
1t was stated yesterday that Mr.. Thos. JEFF
ferson Badgett, of North Carolina, was drown
ed while bathing, on Tuesday, at Atlantic
City, n. j. 1t appears, says the Philadel-
phla Ledger, that he was stopping at the
Light House Cottage, and went in to battle
near the Mansion House grounds. The tide
was running in at the time, and the body
was washed ashore near the United States
Hotel grounds. Mr.. McKibbin kindly fur
nished blankets, restoratives, &C., to be used
by the attending physicians, but every effort
at resusitation proved f%ruitlcss. The deceas-
ed was bathing in company with some of his
friends. He was % years of age and a medi-
cal student.
PAYING FOR THEIR WHIsTLE.-The Metro
politan Hotel bill for boarding the Japanese
is 9 1000. Among the items are TO- 900
bottles of champagne.

All noble natures are hopeful. It is a
remarkable fact that the purest people are
the most charitable. When a great sin oc-
ours, when scandal arises in society, you do
not find the purest people to have the most
bitter words to say of it, but those that are
more on a level with the same kind of sin
are the most bitter. And when you come
for instance, to some noble minded, pure
hearted woman, you will be sure to find
that the word of charity, the judgement of
mercy, and the heart Of pity, rise above all
other impulses.

~ The Temperance Reform is an idea
in whose consumation is centered the highest
good of the race to-day and for ages to come.
And yet there are hosts of minds which can
not comprehend it and with canting words,
talk about one-idea men.
Better one idea, glorious to man and honor
ing to God, than a legion which never pulse
beyond the line of pitiful s~elishness. Bet
ter to rear one eagle to sweep the upper
sky, than a thousand chickens to scratch
the ground.
