tators were beginning To pray for the
unfortunate child, n tall girl, with dls
hevclod blonde hair aud flowing night
gown, cut through the crowd, and,
with n shrek of "lll save hcr!" that
rose above the sound of cracking tim
bers aud falling masonry, dashed into
the doorway. a loud hurrah that was
prolonged TO the echo only 10 he re-
peatcd again attracted the attention OF
the dcvoteos, aud the pale'fncod girl
was seen skipping through the flames
with the terrified child. A few days
thereafter King Louis Philippe sent

The New York Worlds Long
Branch correspondent, fresh from the
table talk of n horde of politicians, has
this TO say about new candidate for
for Republican Presidential nomina-
ton:
I'm PEASANT, brand new candidate,
has been added here to the Republican
Presidential pool, and gentleman of
San Francisco, late of the army offered
last night to wager 81 900 TO $4,000
that he will be, If alive and in ordina-
ry health, the next Republican nomi-
nee for the Presidency. His name is
Ambrose Il. Burnside, United States
Senator from Rhode Island. Bristow
seems to be the unanimous choice of
dent. Whether this selection Is in
spired by the President or not, we
know not, but guess it is.
General Robertson, Chief of the
Bureau of immigration, has just re-
ceived Il letter from Mr.. Il. III. .Relph,
the Managing Director of the English
Live Stock Transportation Company,
dated London, June 80, stating that
the experimental trip they made with
horses and cattle on the steamship
Finisterre, from Rockport, had proved
n success, and that the company was
being reorganized on much larger
scale. awe PROPOSE" says Mr.. Relph,
shaving line of aboct eight first
Gloss steamers, and as we shall depend
principally on the cattle trade for our
profit, we shall be able to carry immi-
grants at very low rate" After re-
marking that he was much pleased
with Texas and her vast resources,
Mr.. Relph says: "The advan-
tages which Texas presents
are quite unknown to the gener-
ality of the English public, and, there
fore, until some moYe in the proper
direction is made, SIZE can never hope
to get many peoplet from England"
General Robertson is doing all he can
with the very little means he is pro.
vided with, to get information before
the English people. He has sent his
recently published pamphlet, with
other documents, to Mr.. Relph for dis
tribution. Will not the opening of
this live stock transportation line be
the starting point of new era in the
of Texas p Galveston
