A NEW SPECULATION Concerning widows, q
war correspondent Of the ST. Louis Republican
writes that "a mine Of wealth, richer than any
that ever was worked in California or Golconda.
has been found in the persons Of the numberless
widows now inhabiting the shores Of the river
hcreabout One Of our acquaintance has found
o lovely widow, with no further incumbrance
than some three hundred bales Of cotton, which,
In consideration Of contract Of amity between
them, and ratified by clergyman, have been
converted into greepbacks, to be used jointly.
Another has found pair Of widows, neither Of
whom he can marry, (since he ishonest enOughtO
admit Of one existing marriage) but has secured
some sixty thousand dollars for his influence in
getting husbands for both. A third we know
has SO endeared himself TO IA lone woman ? by
his winning ways. that he Is established on her
plantation as business manager, with q salary Of
ten thousand per annum and found. We make
no charge for giving publicity to the fact that
there are hundreds Of Others with similar end0w-
ments; and to the race Of fortune-hunters we
can suggest no better field Of adventure than this
provided they have no regard for that tremendous
admonition Of the senior Weller" Disconsolate
wid0weIs and bachelors should not be slow to
wait on these afflicted widows, and counsel Chris
tim resignation and aspeedy acceptance Of new
husbands. 'il,hi q ,fn1h i' l'l 'uN

was Immense, completely blocking the streets

force could restrain the throng, 90 intense was
ths desire to behold The Arcbbishop's face

were unable to gain entrance to tho Cathedral.

first class grist-mill, o small saw.Dil, and somO
nine or ten dwellings and oul-houses. For
manufacturing purposes the site is not sur
passed BY any in this Territory or elsewhere.
The water power is ample for several wOOllen
factories, without impairing tho power Of the

healthfIl IN tho extreme. II is thought that
this desirable property, well worth to capital
lists twenty thousand dollars, viii not realize
more than Eve or six thousand dollars. To

THE CHAPLAIN PIRATES PARDoNBD.-It seems
that these wretches, convicted Of piratical de.
signs, are all to be set at liberty on taking the
oath Of allegiance. Several have already been
discharged from custody, and the others doubt.
le SIS soon will be. Judge Hoffman, Of the U.
S. District Court, in rendering decision in the
case Of Rideely Greathouse, one Of the most
criminal Of the pirates, said that he was en-
titled to freedom under the Presidents amnesty
proclamation, on taking the oath Of allegiance.
The Judge expressed great reluctance in giving
this decision, but the proclamation left him no
alternative. Under the same construction and
ruling, the pirate Semmcs and his motley crew
would 60 scot free, if captured and brought
home in irons. We cannot but deem this leni.
ency misplaced and ill-timed. What respect
have these men for the obligations Of an oath
Of alleganceG Semmes HIMSELF We doubt
not, would take the oath tomorrow, if in Gus
iody, and violate Il the following day. No such
lenieucy would be shown by the Confederates,
nndsy like circumstances; and the wisdom Of
The Federal Government showing It at this time
Is very questionable, to say the least .A-'
