Correspondence of the New Orleans Crescentl
| GALVESTON, Oct. g. 1865.
Every one that goes from home now has a mania
for scribbng, in every; sense of the word, so dc
not expect anything better in this. On Tuesday
last, we left the Crescent City on the good steamer
Rapidan, Captain W B. Eaton, commanding, En-
passant the notice oftCaptain E., in last Sundays
papers, does not say half enough in his praise
We had a most delightful trip, with fine weather
all the way and after.a run of thirty-six hours
| from bar to bar, having heavy sweI, head wind
and large barge in tow, we landed at Galveston
making, under the circumstances, an unusually
short trip. The passengers were as pleasant a
set as one can usually find for companions The
charming Mrs. F., of Dir. Batess troupe about to
open theatrical season in, Houston, with her
beautiful children enliyened the otherwise tedious
moments by their delightful singing. The officers
OF the boat were all that could be desired the table
coudnot be surpassed, and the attentions shownby
by all the, employees, were rendered in such a
manner as to make one feel he was permitting,
and not receiving favor at their hands Any
one travelling to Galveston will find himself very
fortunate if he can secure passage With our
worthy friend Capt. Bills,
word for Galveston. With all the energy and
| activity displayed at home, must say Galveston
surpasses it. Every few yards, as you walk
through the city, piles Of lumber obstruct your
path. Houses and stores of all sizes and kinds
are going up very rapidly, some Of which would
be anornament to any city. Every one you meet
on the streets looks earnestly engaged at some
thing, and all look happy and contented. In fact,
here at leastfor the time, they seem to forget the
pending crisis, and | have not heard a single
raven crOak since nv arrival
The merchants, in every line, are doing good
business and the only trouble seems to be to get
goods fast enough for the demand 1 think our
own merchants will soon begin to reap benefit
from this.

The way not to be healthy or happy is 10
keep up an incessant snarling. If you want
to grow lean, cadaveFous, and unlovely,
excite yourself continually about matters
you know nothing about. Accuse other
people Of wrong-doing incessantly, and
you will find but little time to see any
wrong In yourself We wish here and now
to'inform all men of irritable dispositions
ttmtthey will live longerif they will only
keep cool. IL such men want to uie, 0
have nothing to say; snarling will kill
about as quick as anything we know. We
have had good health for the whole period
81 manhood, and attribute the most of it to
the way we take things. i --...
Stupid folks cut very sorry figure
when they get tangry and fly to literature
by way Of revenge. They getlaughed at,
aud that increases their bilious derange-
ment. Digestion is much better when one
has sense. We like witless people If they
will only keep in good humOr, but an an
CRY blockhead, who can not express him
self In any Ineligible way, is pitiful
sight. We like fat people simply because
they TAX things easy. rar
Melancholy men, whose noses are always
askew, as though they had suddenly fallen
upon an nnsavOry obstacle in their path,
are to be stunned. Men whose eyes never
see any tninK OeyOnu the eXCremllleS OF
their nasal organs are the poorest kind Of
guides. The best way for people who do |
not know things is to say as little as possi- |
BILE about the unknown.
Pig-headed, fellows, who always mistake |
their own thoughts as well as yours, seldom
get very happy, except when they are very
much fattered. People who tell funny
stories but invariably forget the point Of
the joke, are much better associates than
those who see things awry and snarl at
every one who passes, You can talk with
comfort to folks who cannot tell any thing;
but it is terrible to be obliged to stay with
l dyspeptic growler who seems bound to
Keep everybody as uneasy as possible.
If a thing is mean, say 1t heartily and at
,nce, but do not 60 round the world snarl
ng. Men who are just are charitable.
The way to heaven is lighted and peaceful.
A soul saved should be cheerful, merci-
ul, glad. Things are not so bad as some
oIks think. The Church is better than its
nemies imagine, and the world is better
han cynical Christians. If you will keep
our own soul in fellowship with God. you
will think better of other people. "Rejoice

A certain tyrant sent for one of his sub
jects and said to him: what is your en-
poyment?" He said "Iam blacksmith -
IGo home aud make me a chain of such a
length.n He went home; it occupied him
several months, and. he had no wages all
the time he was makiDglt. Then he brought
it to the monarch, and he said: ''Go and
makebi twice as long" He brought 1t to
him again, and the monarch said: 'GO
and make 1t longer STILL" And when he
brought 1t up at last, the monarch said !:
take It, and bind him hand and foot with
it. and cast him into a furnace offire." These
were the wages for making the chain. Here
is amedtation for youto-night, ye servants
Of the devil. Your master, the devil, is
telling you to make chain. Some have
been fifty years Welding the li.ks Of the
chain; and he says, 'Go and make it still
longerp' Next Sabbath morning you will
open that shop of yours, and put another
link on; next Sabbath you will be drunk,
and put on another link next Monday you
will do adishonest action; and so you keep
on making fresh links to this chain; and
when you have lived twenty years more
the devil will say: "More links on STILL"
And then at last, it, will be: "Take him,

but IL God makes it profitable, it will do

Acts of the Legislature.

We publish elsewhere a list of the Acts
passed at the extra session also some of the
Acts themselves. We will publish all that are
OF general interest.
The Act regulating the Courts is different
from what we had heard before our last issue.
Only part of the Common Pleas business IA
inte rfered with. Cases oftort, (trespass, tover,
SANDER, &c. ) may be tried at the Fall Term.
We publish the resolutions On the subject Of
supplies. Persons who have been hoping that
the Legislature would provide corn for the dss.
titute, had Letter not depend upon the prospect
afforded by these resolutions. The Governor
may not be able to sell the state Bonds at all,
and il saleable, il is not probable that $500, 900
OF bonds can be sold for q sum sufficient to
Tealize the delivery OF 500. 900 bushels of corn.
We think there is chance for the scheme to
prove a failure. and communities had better
look out for themselves. The question Of relief
for the starving, which was more important
than any other b. fore the Legisl ature, appears
to have received the least attention.

Class Legislation.

If the late Act Of the Legislature In relation
to the Courts Of Common Pleas be regarded by
the Judgcs as constitutional and bin ding upon
them, the effect Will be to stay proceedings in
oil cases pending in that Court, except cases Of
tort, until the enshngSpring Tertf:. Final pro.
cess will therefore be delayed for period Of
sit months, and to that extent debtors against
whom suits are now pending will be benefited
The class of debtors, however. who stand
most in need Of relief are those against whom
judgements and executions have already been
obtained; and to them the law offers no pro.
tection. There are no doubt htndre de- of etc.
cutions in every She,if's Office In the State;
and there is nothing In the Law ID prevent their
Immediate collection by letles and sales df
PROPERTY.
Another class Of debtors not benefited ar
those whose Indebtedness consists OF sma n
amounts. The District Courts are to he ,nme-
dately organized and they will have juris diction
OF claims up to one hundred dollars The
aagi strates' Courts are already in full blast
The small debtors, therefore, who are generally
persons of limited means, are not protected,
while the interests of the large debtors, whose
means are proportionatcly ample, are cared
for.
An Inconvenience resulting to all parties
defendants as well as plaintiffs, is the postpone
men, of litigated cases, where both sides are
ready for hearing Cases Of fraud, failure Of
consideration, wills, &c, embrace a large part
of the business of the Common Pleas and can
never be obstructed except at the expense and
annoyance Of the parties concerned
The very small advantages which the law
affords, will not, IN our Judgment balance
against its disadvantages and inequalities. TO
say nothing OF its moral effect and its possible
injuries TO the credit OF the State and of her
pc eople, 1t will have q tendency TO disturb the
spirit Of forbearance and compromise between
debtor and creditors, which We believe very
generally prevailed. Had no law on the subject
been passed, the return for this District to the
Full Term would scarcely have been as large as
an average return ID Ordinary times siore the
war. We are satisfied tina, the number Of col
lection cases would not have greatly exceeded
one hundred. The Law being interierred for
the protection Of the debtor, creditors may
hereafter feel less m' raj restraint and when the
Courts are unmol.sted, avail themselves OF all
the remedies afforded.
The interest of all parties will be subscrred
1t the time afforded bv the temporary su.pen.
sion Of the Common Pleas, aud the delay at
tending the organization Of the District Courts,
be taken advantage OF in the effort TO make
settlements as far as practicable. 1t will be
well to remember that the evil day is ouiy post.
poned, and that the ultimate enforcement Of
the laws. under the Constitution Of he country.
Is inevitable.
