Packet Line to Halifax. N. s.

To the Editor OF the Press:
desire to call the attention OF the Portland
merchants and Others interested in the ques-
ton, to the expediency OF establishing line
of Packets between this city and Halifax ana
Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. There is already
something of a trade growing up between
that portion of this Province and our city, and
it would be largely increased, as do not
doubt, if the proper facilities should be pro-
yided. Indeed I am of opinion that suita-
BILE steamer making weekly trip between
Portland and Halifax, calling perhaps at Liv-
erpool, Shelburne and Yarmouth, in view Of
the large amount Of freight that would be
furnished from Canada uia the Grand Trunk
Railway, would in short time, if not imm edi-
ately, be well supported. CAsco.

THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES GREAT RE-
a WAL. ''t~
BOSTON, May 16, 1866.
To the Editor Of the Press:
Boston is growing impatient for the coming
of the warm spring time. We have as yet had
only the signs of spring The winds have been
cold and crusty. 1t is nothing unusual for the
winds to be little out of temper with us, at
this season but they have been in worse hui
NOR than usual. Perhaps the winds are lit
tie human-like and having been so clement
during the past winter, have now reserve OF
il-temper that must have vent. 1t is said that
the spring has been favorable to fruits of all
kinds and if we are spared the scourge ofthe
canker-worm our orchards and gardens will
yield an abundance.
Everybody is saying show dull business is"
Trade has been light in all branches of bust
ness. There is complaint that dealers were
more ready to put up prices than they now
are to lower them. The result is that buyers
are cautious, from the expectation that the
market must change in their favor.
The quiet in business has been favorable to
the widespread religious interest that has pre-
vailed in the city for the past two months
Do you believe in the necessity OF having the
spring succeed the winter? 10 me, revival
is only the spring time power that must come
after every winter of spiritual Indifference, to
quicken the church into new life. Prominent
among the speakers in these revival meetings
have been the Rev. Mr.. Earle and II. F. Du-
rant, Esq. Mr.. Earle is a man of remarkable
power. His influence reaches all classes. He
impresses you with his sincerity. You feel
that he believes all that he is saying, and by
his own well developed faith he seems 70 holm
you to see into 1.-THE hidden things" more than
ever before. He always has full congregations
His labors have been power for good. H.F
Durant, ESQ.,, is quite prominent man in his
profession. He has for weeks devoted him
self to the work of urging men to take care of
the interests of their souls. His arguments
have carried conviction to many minds. Com
ing from one of his meetings recently, over
heard this remark made of him: "Whenever
Durant undertakes case he is always scrupu-
lousy careful to look out fortwo things good
witnesses and good pay" 1t occurred to me
that they were admirable characteristics for q
clergyman. 1t is a joy to see such men WELD
ing all their influence for the cause of truth.

BaylIon. b. II. ErpERsoS WITHDRAWN
We find in the Paris Press, of last Saturday,
letter from b. II. Epperson, dated Clarks-
vile, April Goth, addressed to James W.
Thomas, Esq, of the Mckinney Messenger,
in which he declines the candidacy for 1t
Governor on the Pcase ticket, and also
withdraws his name rs candidate for
Governor, which his friends in Northeast
ern Texas had announced. The letter is
very lengthy, but we will try and find room
for it next week. The Press, in publishing
the letter, says:
"Mr Epperson withdraws his name ms n
candidate for Lieutenant Governor from

gy.Rev. Mr.. Carlton, of Grayson Coun-
ty, gives us the particulars of n tornado
which passed over the Eastern part Of Col
lin County, on Monday evening Of last
week, which completely blew away two
residences, on the road from Mckinney to
Rockwall, lone belonging to Mrs. Graham
and the other to Mr.. Levclady, both OF
which were literally torn to pieces and
scattered over the prairie. Fortunately nc
one was killed or very seriously injured,
the occupants having sufficient notice OF
the approach of the tornado, to escspc from
the buildings. The wind blew from West
to East, and only extended over space Of
a mile in length, and some two or three
hundred yards in width. Wagons, trees
and everything in the course of the wind
were destroyed or torn up.
We perceive by an extract from the Par
is Press in to-days paper, that similar
tornado prevailed at Honey Grove, Fannin
County, on the same evening, which did
great deal of damage.

are we'll known in this section of the State,
having formerly resided in Cook County.
We further understand that our former

prospectus of the paper, or we would give
the terms &c., but we presume the price is
about the same as the other Houston pa

menced on the 10th inst, and will be an

ton of the Conservative Union Ticket in

The continuance, week by week, of your

define. your position more cloquently than
words. The Intelligencer evidently hugely
disguised at the course Of its candidates
and treats the communication of Messrs
Harris and White with silent contempt. Il
would not even publish Jim Shaw's effor

MuRDER.-The Waco Register Of the 9Th
inst, learns, that q man named Bryant

Owensville and Millican; his body was
found few days since-he was shot
through the head, his hands tied behind
his back, his saddle laid across his body
and his face covered with q blanket Bry.
ant is said to have had some eight hundred
dollars on his. person at the time he was
murdered.
Further private information informs us
that Mr.. Bryant was in the employ Of
Aiessrs d. NJ. Clover q Co., of Millican.
He had been sent up to Marlin, or that vie
cinity, where the above firm have branch
house, to close up the business, and make
settlement, which he had done, and was
on his return to Millican when he was met
by three men within less than O mile of
the place where DR.. Lynn was murdered
by Bob Selman, in January last. Three
persons had been arrested, the names of
whom we have not learned, who were taken
to Houston.
