VIZ are in receipt of little volume
from D. Appleton & Co., n. Y, which, af-
terra pretty thorough perusal, we think ought
to be in the hands of every physician; GER
tainly, it ought to be in possession of every
wife, mother and nurse of this land. 1t is
Notes on Nursing, by Florence Nightin-
gale. Her name is synonyme for all
those Samaritan acts by which we are TO
know cur neighbors and fulfill the sacred
command to love our neighbors as our
selves. We have read the work, and are
free to confess that never, in the same
number of pages, did we find so little ap-
probation of ones own labors as in this.
No one would know from the author, that
she was that Angel of mercy whose pres
ence was as the breath of heaven to the
mutilated, manglcd and dying warriors of
the Crimea, who, with her own hands,
fragments of humanity that lay on bloody
couches in foreign hospitals; cooled the
parched tongue of burning fever, wiped
the death dew from the soldiers brow,
made the sunset of his life radiant with
the smile of hope. She does not even lay
down arbitrary rules for the nurses obser-
walton; but yet the sagacious reader will
perceive the truth, the automatic certainty
of her conclusions, and feel that only the
experience which she has had could have
suggested the many Indispensable con-
comitants of good nursing. We have not
time to make any extracts from the book,
but we would advise all those who have
the care of sick, or even the care of house
holds, to call at Mr.. Orr's and get copy

TEXAS, says the New Orleans Pieayune,
has become the favorite point sought by
the adventurous and enterprising of all
the States. Population is increasing with
unexnmpled speed. Lands are raising in
value with every year. The resources of
this magnificent State are rapidly devel-
oped. Her cotton productions show ex-
traordinary progress. She has already
produced sugarto the extent of thousands
of hogheads, and tens of thousands of
sheep and cattle, and the time is not far
distant when her product Of wool will sur
pass the most fourishing of the older
States, and the amount of her stock sent
to a Southern market exceed that furnish
ed by the great valley of the West.
