Tor IL is remarkable commentary on the anti

borrowed, or invited from the North, which is
unwilling neither TO lend or to give while it
finds itself welcome. 1t is law OF our CONT

Recent events upon the Rio Grande, it is to be

and possibly with France. From latest authen-

busters, under the command of General Read, .,
crossed the Rio Grande from the American side,
and captured Bagd&d, on the Mexican side, below
Matamoras; taking prisoners the Imperial garri-
so numbering about l75 men. The town was
plundercd, all the available booty was brought
off, and the Imperial gunboat Antonio passing
up at the time the expedition was in progress,
was ordered to surrender, and, refusing to do'So,
and opening FIRE upon the fGbusters, the fire was

Committee on the Judiciary.
Mr. Williams introduced resolution calling

PooR-FELLow.-The most remarkable event
that has transpired in our town since the war
closed, and which has attracted as much, if not
more, attention than the grand cavalcade of
Brigadier General Van Wyck and Staff, with the
famous brass band thrown in, has been the ap-
pearance on the street of the man with the suit
of new store clothes. Public attention has been
much exercised about it, and the questions,
"where and how did he get this outfit" is in the
mouth of everybody. White folks question and
darkies look dubious. The lucky, or unlucky
individual, as the case may be-, is dear frendof
ours, and we feel much concerned, lest he be
driven through senstiveness to do violence to
himself or clothes; SO notorious is it, that he
breads making the Main street passage. At bis
REQUEST, which was made with deep emotion, we
make public announcement that he came by
the clothes honestly, having procured them
from Wright L Coppock's gents Quitting and
furnishing establishment, in the day, time, and
under the smile of these gentlemen, assisted by
a grin of John, the clerk. Moreover, that the
clothes were badly needed being the first store.
bought rigging he has had since 1851. We trust
that he will now be allowed to promenade the
streets without further molestation. -

the passenger schedule of this road, which will
be found IN another column. The change goes
into effect to-day. The travelling public will be
gratiGed that, after so long lapse, they will be
enabled, through the tact and energy of Mr..
LasSale, and officers generally to make their
trips with something like the old convenience
and despatch. Tis true that the break of seven
miles will make the trip somewhat longer than is
agreeable, yet the present change is so far ahead
