THE LATE JUDGE j. j. WEEMS -
Severed of our articles were omitted
last week, in the hurry consequent
upon the interruption of business
caused by the Firemen's Celebration.
and among them was one relative to a
meeting of the Shreveport bar, on the
death of the Hon. j. j. Weems, for
merly Judge of that District. Judge
Levisee, his successor, presided, aud
resolutions were passed, declaring that
as a Judge, the ermine of the deceased
was unstained, an,las a gentleman and
Il lawyer, his honor was untarnished.
This was high praise, and must Ike
very gratifying to Judge Weems sur
viving relations and friends, particu-
larry, as at one time in consequence Of
his Union sentiments, he. was very un-
popular in Shreveport. Severa. daugh-
tiers survive him, one of whom lives in
our town, the wife our well known tel
low citizen, WIN. Witty, Esq.

OF the 26th December last. had very
valuable gold watch chain and charms
stolen from his reem. He offered a
reward OF seventy five dollars for its
recovery, which was advertised here
and in New Orleans, but nothing was
heard Of it, and he had given it up for
lost. His surprise aud Satisfaction
may we'll be imagined then, when on
the day of the firemen's celebration he
received through the Post Office his
watch and appertenances exactly as
he had lost them, aud no reward asked.
Various speculation are about, as re-
CARDS this very extraordinary circum-
stance, the most probable Of which
seems to he that the theft was commit
ted by an inexperienced hand. who
could not dispose OF his booty, and re-
turned it through fear of detection. or
perhaps was detected aud forced to
that course.

The territory is quiet and peaceful, as it
appears, despite the existence of a border
