A GOOD COUNTRY TO LIVE IN.

The prospect for good wheat crop in
Texas this year is said to be excellent,
and the people of that State are confident
tho time is not far distant when flour
will cease to be imported there from other
States. They are already blessed with
cheap meat, and with plenty of good land
it only requires an industrious yeomarry
to bless them with cheap bread. Land
is cheap, and the chances for poor folks
to take start and become independent
are better in this State than in the older
States of the Union. What a paradise
Texas would prove to the poorer classes
of Europe, many of whom are actually
dying from starvation and over work.
A correspondent, writing from London
to the New York World, gives mournful
picture of the condition Of the poorer
classes Of England. He asserts that the
cause Of the growing evil must be at:
tributed to the fact that wealth is daily
concentrating into the hapds Of the few.
One hundred and fifty persons, it is said,
own one-half Of the property Of. England,
and nineteen million five hundred thou
sand acres Of the surface Of Scotland are
the property Of twelve persons The
wealth thus amassed Il the hands Of the

A very becoming silence has fallen upon
the Democracy, concerning the letter that
was published in Springfield, Massachu-
sets, about Louisiana affairs. It is said
that the Ku-klux are hunting for the
author'of the obnoxious epistle, and that
a dreadful "cord and dagger ordeal" will
be perpetrated upon him if he does not
explain that he was drunk at the time he
wrote the dreadful revelation. This ex-
cuse goes long way to palliate ofenses
against the Democracy.

True love never enjoys smooth chan
mel. The excess of affection which over
came the Bulletin for Speaker Carter last
week has either met an obstruction, or it
is allowing silence to suggest suspicious
that ''concealment is gnawing at its dam
aged cheek" or something 6f that sort.
Let It bubble.

solicitous about such matters 10 the ex-
clusion Of that better entertainment, the
cordial greeting, the kind inquigies,
the giving Of, time and attention,
Is gross and mistaken view of this social
virtue. The New Testament story of Mary
and Martha we'll illustrates the difference
between lofty and contracted views on
this subject. Both sisters welcomed their
divine visitor with love and joy but the
one appreciated the fact that he had Sc
lected their home in preference to many
others which were doubtless open to him
from personal preference for their society
and not for sake Of the superior fare and
softer bedding which their house might
afford. A due attention to these matters
is well-nay, is indispensable; but such a
solicitude "about many things" as de-
prives the guest Of the presence and COM
pany of his host is not the best kind of hos
pitality. Sometimes, indeed, the desire
to overload the table with Injuries pro-
ceeds from ostentation, which simply dis
gusts; but even when such over-solicitude
springs from q sincere but mistaken no.
ton of the duties of hospitality, it is apt
to defeat its own purpose by making it's
recipient i'll at ease, and warning him in
directly not soon again to repeat visit
which costs his entertainer SO much
anxiety and expense. Thus, by over
doing matters, some well intentioned
persons simply succeed in driving from
their doors those best worth entertaining.
No man is called upon to discommode
himself greatly for the sake Of hospitality.
1t is, or ought to be, an everyday virtue,
not an act of self-sacrifce. The homely
invitation to sshare pot-luck" conveys, in
coarse, but vivid words, the very essence
of material hospitality; and those who
practice this kind, making the well
come and the conversation the
main features in their reception and en-
tertainment Of guests, will both gain and
give the most pleasure from the exercise
of this duty. 1.-THE best ornaments of a
house" says Emerson, ':are the friends
who frequentit." And the house most
likely to be frequented by friends, say
we, is that where they feel at ease, and
where the mind is refreshed as well as the
body.
No gift is of value which is not part
of the giver. His soul must be in it, or it
might as well be purchased at the mer-
chants. This is especially true of the
bestowal Of hospitality. It must be vivi-
fed with heart, or it is worthless.

SALE OF A REPUBLICAN,.

The telegraph informs us that Repre-
sentative Winans, a Republican member
of the New York Assembly, has sold him
self to the Democrats, and that in conse-
quence Of this corruption the Tammany
ring has succeeded in passing its objec-
tionable measures. This announcement
will be seized upon to denounce the en-
tire Republican party as venal, and Demo-
Gratis will virtuously demand its OVER
throw. What if we say that the Repub-
ican party has cast this man Winans out
of its ranks? What if we say that the en-
tire Democratic party engaged in the
work of corfupting this faithless indi-
vidual, and that it is now enjoying all the
fruits of his venality? How will this
Place the blame? And if through the
measure of this rascality the city Of New
York is submitted to limitless plumber
ing, and the national government passes
into the hands of the most unprincipled
political ring in the United States, where
is the sin to be placed, on the back OF the
party that cast out and branded as traitor
the instrument that sold his virtue, or
upon the party. that tempered with and
corrupted public agent? We submit
these questions to honest men for their
serious consideration. Seventy five thou
sand dollars is the price that the tele-
graph informs us was paid for this act II
bargain and sale. If out of twelve men
one could be found to sell the Saviour of
the world, it is not totally unaccountable
that in body of sixty-three Republicans
one could be picked out who would fall
before the temptations of the Democracy.
The penalty to Winans is that he is to
be published in all the Republican papers
of New York as an apostate.

The directors will hold meeting this

the necessity of q special meeting OF

At the brokers' board, last evening,
ordinary stock was offered at eighteen dol
lars.
State warrants, new, in amounts of from
one t0 two hundred dollars, were sold yes

at 96s by dealers, who held them at 973.
State warrants are in demand to pay
State taxes with, under recent act. of the
Legislature, by which from three to four
million dollars of warrants may be alb
sorbed, and the advance in State warrants
will,probably, be considerable. The law
reads as follows:
SECTION l. Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives Of the State Of
Louisiana in general assembly convened,

work, the haste to be rich, and the inces-
SAINT effort to urge their husbands, their
children or themselves up to higher
plane of social life, together with that
lack of bodily stamina, and the high
nervous organization of American women,
all drive them to the. use of artificial
stimulants. All kinds of syrups, drops,
tonics, elixirs and bitters, all warranted
''free from drop of alcoholic mixture, "
are brought into constant requisition to
ease the pains and ailments Of all ages,
from the babe at the breast to the adult
matron who seeks sedative to dull the
nerves and senses into rest and quiet.
''The sensation of sudden relief" says
the Lancet, replacing acute pain or nerv-
Gus exhaustion, is exceedingly grateful to
tired and suffering women, and it is no
wonder that by swift degrees they come
to seek with avidity for this kind of OBJ
ivion."
In our own city, and throughout the
South, can we say that we are free from
this charge of female tipping? Can we
utter the warning to our own social cir
cles in regard to this matter any too soon?
Can we say that this sin does not lie at
our own doors, as well as it does at that
Of our sister communities? Let the sub
ject be carefully considered, and let every
effort be put forth for its eradication, TO
the end that our mothers, wives and Sis
ters may be free from the thraldom and
power of this social curse.

\ RADICAL DoDGE.-The Indiana
Legislature has come to an untimely
end by the withdrawal ofall the Radi-
cal members, who found themselves
unable TO defeat certain measures pro-
posed by the Democratic members,
which were of a partisan character.
This kind Of legislative secession might
be defended in revolutionary times,
when the passions of men are at fever
heat, but it is disgraceful in the ex-
treme when there is nothing more in
volved than the obtaining of a small
partisan advantage which the majority
is entitled to, according TO all the rules
governing the action of political or
carnations.

THE PROSPECTING SEASON AP-
rRoACnEs.-With the warm sunshine
of April the restless spirit of the min
ing pioneer and prospector becomes
fully aroused, and no ties or associa-
lions can restrain him from exploring
new fields in quest of hidden treas
urcs. The coming summer promises
% be one of the most fruitful seasons
for the adventurous and daring miner
thai we have had since the discovery
Of silver mines in this State. The
mountain ranges in the eastern part Of
the State are comparatively untouched,
and with the increased knowledge
which the average prospector now
possesses Of mineral veins and geo
fogical indications of the presence Of
precious metals, it is safe to predict
that the number of valuable silver
deposits discovered this Summer Will
exceed those OF any two years com-
hincd at anytime heretofore.
