rexas-The Negro in the Legislature.

GALVESTON, November 9.-The Judi
ciary Committee of the Texas Legisla-
ture report that the sudden change in
the status of the negro demands the en-
actment Of such laws as the present con-
dition requires. They should be protec-
ted by wise and just legislation; their
removal, however desirable, cannot be
accomplished for many years to come
If not governed and controlled by our
laws, they will be by those who know
nothing of their wants or capacity, who
care little for their best interest, so that
the power be perpetuated which has
been acquired by force.

MAGGiEL'S PILLS AND SALVE are al
most universal in their effects, and n cure can
be almost always guaranteed. FOR BILIOUS
DISEASES nothing can be more productive of
cure than these Pills. Their almost magic in
tluence is felt at once and the usual conoom-
tants of this most distressing disease are re-
moved. These remedies are made from the
purest VEGETABLE COMPOUNDS. They
will not harm the most delicate female, and can
be given with good effect in prescribed doses to
the youngest babe. FOR CUTANE0US Dis
ORDERS and all eruptions of the skin the
SALVB is most invaluable. 1t does not heal
externally alone, but penetrates with the most
searching effects to the very root of the evil.

From the Nashville Dispatch.
Mrs. ELIZA ASx NELsox was the wife of Arson
Nelson. Esq. She was q native Of Kuoxyiile. in
this State. where she was married to the husband
who now laments her loss. Inl1s4l she emigrated
with her husband to this city. They were re-
ceiyed and baptised As members Of the First Bsp-
fist Church on the I'd day Of September Of that
year; since which time they have both lived hon
cred and respected in that communion. For
many years Mr.. Nelson has been one Of the
Dcacons Of the Church, and such, and in various
other relations one Of the trustees Of the cor
poration. as Superintendent Of the Sunday School,
and generally he has been among the most rela-
bic. useful and effective members Of the Church.
No man is better known to the printing frater-
nifty in Nashville than Mr.. Nelson, now the Presi-
dent ofthc Second National Bank. The calamity
which has befallen him. in the loss of bis estima-
ble wife, the partner Of his earlier and later
days, was not wholly unexpocted.i For q quarter
Of a century she has been an invalid, and for
many years an excessive sufferer. Often quite
i'll. her friends not prepared to expect such
result from her recent attack. She had been con-
fined to her chamber for q number Of years,
scarcely ever leaving it--and was therefore de-
barred the privilege Of attending the house Of

and attentive physicians. who did all that science
and affection could suggest but without success.

Mrs. NELSON was in many respects an extraor-
binary woman. OF strong mental powers and
determined purpose. she was favorite Of many Of
the old citizens of Nashville. Few ladies in this
city had more or warmer friends. Decided in her
religious opinions. and outspoken in her senti-
ments. she was respected By them ALL She leaves
a son who has attained to manhood, an only child.
How mach she loved him. and how earnestly so-
hcitous she was for his prosperity and happiness
may be easily imagined. He, too, for several
years past has been member Of the church of
his father and mother. Thus are passing away
the loved ones ofthe First Baptist Church. Who
are TO I'll their places in tbs sanctuary? Those
who are left must endesvor TO supply the
lack Of service. imposed BY those, who have de-
parted. The husband. the SON, and all the MEM
bers ofthe bereased family have the sincere SYM
patty Of all the Church. It's pastor and friends.
