THE "PEOPLE of Texas are verypOorly described by simply giving their nationality, or the States from which they have emigrated, which , is where I ended in No. 5. For, ordinarily, the emigrat ing portions of a cammunit y are not a fair re presentation of its great body; being usually either above or below it. They are those with *higher aspirations, more ambition, and supe rior education ; who ' becoming discontented 'with the confinement and established formal isms of Old sOcicties, snap their bonds, and emigrate to nen: localities, with the hope of moulding a new society nearer into an image of their own. Or else, a restless, venturesome, speculating class, for which old communities have but small fields, and which naturally turns to the openings of a new country for broader avenues of adventure. Or, when neither of these, then they are from the low est and most ignorant classes, who in all old countries are gradually trampled out from among their betters, and driven to SAek more independent and substantial livelihood, where lands are cheap, and little homes can be owned, even by the poor. So a new Country never presents the same moral aspect as the Om from wilich its settlers came. An its upper strata is full of keen, nervous, speculating, outreaching elements, that render its society one full of activity, anxiety, adventure, and temptation ; that fifty years' time very largely modifies by raising up a middle class of solid, sober, and plodding men, such as anew country seldom has. Such is exactly the case with Texas. It is made up very largely Of the restless classes I have mentioned, to which have been added two other modifying elements not always found elsewhere. " TIT& STATIPING GROUND." , In its early youth, Texas was the "stamping -ground" and "house Of refuge" for all the notorious offenders and culprits of the corm:- try. 'Horsethioves, bigamists, forgers, mar• derers, and escaped prisoners, all fled thither, and laying bold upon the horns of r its tiatar—thatlof a vicious public Sentiment—were The time was, and not many years back, when it was not considered an insult to ask a Stranger where he had run away from, or what Were his crimes in the States. These men; for: many years made Texan society a pandemo nium; and it took a man of some nerve to make his home among them. They respected a high temper, cool courage, a quick eye, and a ready weapon, wherever they found them Combined. And to 'men of that stamp they were placable and conciliatory. This class ruled the State for years; but though their rule, with the most of themselves, has pasded . . away, society still feels the taint they left behind them ; as the ready appeal to the revolver and knife, upon all occasions of dispute or ill will, still abundantly 'tes tifies. It is a strange and undesirable state of society, when no man can ever rely upon his character as a defence against" calumny, end where he can never safely look down with silent disdain upon one who insults him. But such has ever been the case there. Public opinion' is so far vitiated that no man can safely permit himself to he abused or traduced in silence. The very best classes turn from him, or see him personally and bodily abused without a -word of interference. But one once having established the reputation of having the ability to take care of himself, and always being perfectly ready and willing to do so, has earned the respect of all classes, and, if he minds his own business, is safe wherever he is known. After the - admission of Texas into the Union, the " Stamping ground" was measura. bly broken up, and a very different and great ly improved class of settlers have flocked into it among which is the other element spoken of. This is TEEE GERMAN ELEMENT; and though scattered more or less over the State, and mixed up with others somewhat, it is most largely found in the West. There are a few small German settlements in other por tions of the State ; but not till after crossing the Colorado, going west, are their large towns foimd. One of the pleasantest and most pros perons of the inland towns of Texas is New Braunfels, wholly German, lying upon the Gaudalupe River, at the crossing of the Austin and San Antonio road. I have no means of telling the number of its inhabitants, but I Should say, some two or three thousand. It is a neat, clean little town, looking neither MIMI nor New England, but a kind of delightful cross between the two. Its low, white houses, embowered in gardens of trees, and vines, and flowers, have a most inviting air about them, and snake a traveller loth to leave a place that seems so social, cool, and comfortable. It is full of mechanics of various trades, who do their work better, and sell it cheaper, than at any other town in the State. Its streets, and yards, and gardens, and shops, and schools are models in their way ; and at the latter, which are public, are employed both German and English teachers. Though situated in the most delightful See tion of the State, upon the banks of a sweet -stream, surrounded by a most beautifullyron ing country of great fertility, and in an atmos., phere so pure that game hangs from the piazza posts upon the Shady side of the houses for days, and is still sweet and good ; and though upon one side is an interminable cattle-range, and upon the other thebest sheep-walks of the State, covering equal territory, still New Braunfels and the other Germansettlements in that region were Unwisely selected, wi the German emigration would have been largely increased had their first selection of location been more fortunately made: It should have been northeast of the Colorado. The Germans are a fanning and mechanical people, rather than stock-growers. They are clannish, and - inclined to set down in a row. They should have chosen a part of the State where Crops are certain, and rains fall in plenty to make them. Then their farmers would have been doubly prosperous, because of their diligence and skill, (for they are diligent and good cul tivators, getting full and double crops where BOutlierners get but one, and that shrivelled and poor,) and their little towns of shopkeep ers and mechanics would have been amply supported by the growing country around them. But their present location, though lacking but a Single thing to make it the paradise of the State, in that single lack lacks all (as a farming country.) It is in a country of fro- quent drought, and where crops are often de pendent upon irrigation. Still, despite all drawbacks, these industrious people have compelled their lands to yield them a living, have been moderately prosperous, and are among the best settlers of the State. They are sober, industrious, honest, and loyal. Their farms are better tilled, their towns bet ter kept, their streets cleaner, and their gro ceries safer than any others in the State. While their slipshod neighbors are living on born and bacon, with neither fruits nor fowls; these busy and sensible Germans, by dint of watemilpes and busy hoes, are filling, their gardens with peas, cucumbers, and cabbages, with apples, peaches, and plums, and bringing to their tables eggs and spring chickens ' as abundantly as though Nature had blest their land with showers as well as sunshine. It was here—within five miles of New Braun- fell, sixty miles from Austin, thirty from San Antonio, a hundred and sixty from the Gulf, and upon the borders of the great prairies upon one side, and the oak openings upon the other, in the midst of exhaustless range, both summer and winter, where the sweet tufted and curly mezquit grows—Kendal, whilom of the Piet/lame, - first began his profitable "ranch ing," and drove the stakes of his famous sheep pens. And here, it was, and years ago, Gnu,. after a hundred and fifty miles saddle-ride to have an hour with a man I knew nothim4 of and never saw, over a game dinner and its sparkling etceteras, I took my first lesson in Sheep raising, and from the glowing descrip tions of my witty and enchanting host, aided by the sight of his "sequestered cabinet of family comforts," I lost my heart among the bills and fell in love with l S_Mpherding. Pardon me a word of Kendal. That stray hoar at his table has always lived green in my heart, and, were it possible, I would frame it for preservation and leave It an heirloom in the family. Kendal is a royal fellow, and (with a single error) noble as royal. Full of 01(1 and New- World lore—of books and travel, of theory and experience, of fact and fancy-1 found him a airing history of events, and a rare, intellce tout museum of curious incidents. Twelve -ti mes had he crossed the ocean, and this corm. rom an ancomplishetl trry he knew by heart. editor and a successful author, he had risen to he a sheep-keeper among the wilds of Texas ; and front a home in Paris to a Stone cottage in a Dutch settlement among the Post-oaki;. And here, in this little out-of-the-way nook, sur- Molded by his docks, and made comfortablc by everything that wool could buy, (and wool is money,) I forma him _full of contentment, sold enjoying life as contented men only are able to do. It was a rare househould indeed, for such a place. The piano was in tune, and made itself enchanting 'beneath the Skilful fingers of Mrs. R., who was a French lady of culture and re finement, and I heard the little ones talking to their father in three languages, English, German, and French, as readily as though na tive to each. But, tired of the Dutchmen, Kendal moved thirty miles up the country, .bere the unappreciative redskins killed his shepherds and scattered his sheep, and, for aught I know, he has been hunting them up ever since. If so, it is a better business than writing rebellion papers, which he so far far got himself as to indulge in to alimited ex tent. But I Shrewdly suspect that was a dodge "to save his bacon" with the "John- nies," after the Camanches harried his sheep. If SO, perhaps the end (of a rope in prospect) justified the means. At any rate, I am sure that Rential , s heart was all right, despite the febelliOns caperß Out by his frisky pen. When Secession became rampant, it is likely that hix neck, like many another of leas dimensions, caught a sort of tickling fear of probable strangulation, and the lingers, out of s-in pa thy, began to claw out of danger. The r eader will excuse the egotistical I oc casionally used, when he remembers that his humble servant, the writer, i sn't the editor, and so has no right to lay profanehands on the great editorial "we ;" but not ST. being 46 vre, ii " R. ,Tliar.s, ho are we but " II" THE CITY. An Interegting Lase dal :►latch. ATHLETICS VS. REREKAS, OF NEWARK -THE FoRMTR VICTORIOUS. The gromids of the Athletic Base-Ball Club, at Fifteenth street and Colinnhia avenue, v . -esented yesterday afternoon a scene here tofore rarely observed in Philadelphia. Front five to eight thousand persons, one third of whom were ladies, bad assembled there to witness a match, between the Eureka Club, of Newark, New Jersey, and the Ath letics, the champions of this city. For some time past much interest has been taken in this match, as the Eureka, which is probably the best base-ban club in New Jersey, and one of the best in the United States, were confident that they would return to their homes the victors. The grounds of the Athletic Club are large, and enelosed by a neat whitewashed fence. Inside lift small house for the use Of the Mem bers, and to the east of this is a large pavilion for the accommodation of ladies and visitors. This, yesterday, was crowded with a large galaxy of the fair sex, and, if we may Judge by the applause they frequently gave Tent to, the game was as interesting to them as to the sterner portion of humanity present. All the space not outhe field proper was also occupied by men and boys, while the fences were lined by the same class. The Eurekas had arrived from Newark yes terday morning, and were taken charge of by the Athletics. On their entrance to the ground they were received in a flattering manner by the spectators. They are a fine-looking body of young gentlemen, and their playing, cape chilly in the ninth innings, showed that they were no mean opponents of the champions, The day was very fine; but the sun, beaming into the eyes of some of the players, was, in a few instances, very annoying to them. At fifteen minutes past three o'clock the game commenced, the Eurelras having the limit innings, but they ware soon put out by the Athletics before they had made a_single run. The latter then went to the bat, and made a run of five. They played very well, indeed; and it soon became evident that the Eurekas ran a poor chance of being the vic tors. On the eighth inillaga the latter went to the bat with a score of twelve against their oppo nents, thirty-three. This large difference they endeavored to make up, but after scoring three they had to give way to the Athletics, who Made B score of frre. The Eurekas 2tOW took the hat, and by some very fine playing made a score of thirteen before they were caught' out by their opponents; This was partly due to two miscatches of the bases of the Athletic;, and also to the fact that the Eurekas had become more torah iar with the fine pitching of 'Mcßride. The Athletics next took the bat, but -they were soon put out by their opponents before they had added to the preNgous score. Mee:leery, who bad taken the place of Hay hurst, made the largest run on the Athletic side, haying succeeded in scoring seven. All tile members of both °Fobs exerted them selves to their utmost, and as numerous fine hits were made, the spectators showed their gratilication by applause. The following was the score ATHLETIC.

Few martyrs of which we read have borne such un heard of sufferings, and whose names are so famous, as that of him who is called the glo rious St. Lawrence. While yet young, he was, in A. D.:257, appointed by St. Xystus one of the seven deacons who served in the Roman Church, and is called by several fathers "the Pope's archdeacon." In the same year, :the Emperor Valerian publishedihis bloody edicts against the Church, and commenced by order ing all bishops, priests, and deacons to be put to death, and in the following year the Pope (St. Xystus, as above named) was apprehend ed and put to death. As he was led to execu tion, his deacon (Lawrence) followed, crying out, "Whither art thou going, oh! holy priest, without thy deacon? Where are yOll going, father, without your soul" and other expressions of grief. The Pope, moved by his lamentations, said, "I do not leave you, my son; but a greater trial and a more glori- ' oils victory are reserved for you. You shall follow me in three days." He added a charge to distribute the treasures of the Church among the poor, and Lawrence, being full of joy that he was to go so soon, did so, and dis tributed the immense riches of the Church among the.poor. The Prefect of Rome, hear ing of these great riches, sent for St. Law- . rence, and asked for such money and treasure as the Church had for the use of the Emperor and the maintenance of his forces. St. Law rence replied that the Church was rich, and asked for three days to make an inventory. This the Prefect granted, and, at the end of the time mentioned, Lawrence, who had gone all Over the city for the purpose, brought the decrepid, blind, lame, maimed, widows, Or phans and virgins before him, Stating that They were the Church's riches. The Prefect, was enraged, and cried out, "Do you thus' mock me 1 I know you desire to die, but it Shall be by inches." Lawrence was then stript naked, and bound with chains on a large gridiron, which was Set Oyer a slow lire, and his 'flesh was thus broiled by lit tle and little, piercing even to his bowels. It is related that after broiling awhile on one side he said to the Judge, "Let my body now be turned." This was done, and after a time lie said: "It is dressed enough, you may eat." The Prefect insulted him, but he continued in earnest prayer for the conversion of Rome, and, having finished his prayer, he gave up the ghost, August 10th, iii. Several Senators who were present, were so moved that they became Christians on the spot, and they buried him honorably On the Same day in the Yenta field, near the road to Tenn) and a church was built over the grave hi the reign of Constan tine the Great. To-day, being the vigil of the Saint, will be kept as a solemn fast, and high masses will be sung tomorrow in all the churches. It is a ceremonial of the Second Class, and the vestments to be worn arc red. n Malta and the Mediterranean, grapes are first brought to market on this day. CHAPTER OF FIRES.—On Monday night the large barn of Mr. Martin :Ulrich, located on Nieetown lane, west of the township line, was, with its contents, entirely destroyed by 'Bre. Several adjacent buildings wore con sumed. The entire loss is estimated at tifteed hundred dollars, upon which there was no in surance. It is reported that the fire was caused by a spark from a passim; locomotive. This, however, Is simply suspicion. The dyeing house, or room, at HOwe's on Beach street, above Shackanutxon street, was discovered to be on fire yesterday after noon. The flames fortunately were sup pressed. There have been several large fires on this site within a few years. The Stable of Nicholas Rain, on Randolph street, below Oxford street, was discovered to be on fire yesterday.

OflEAL — It now an ac knowledged fact that Belladonna is the anti dote for opium, but as this information cannot be too widely spread, we submit the following two cases of the kindpublished by the Archives de Medicine: A short time ago a young lady took by mistake a quantity of laudanum equi valent to two teitSpOOnsful—that is, represent ing six deei grammes of the gummy extract of opium. The taste of the drug made her sensible of what she had done, and she hem ed lately told her friends of it, who instantly administered a cup of coffee, a very appropriate remedy, but which was immediately ejected, and the pa tient began to feel a very painful spasm in her stomach. The doctor did not arrive until an hour and a half after the accident; when he found the patient ly140," on a sofa, and very pale; the., pupils were contracted to such an extent that the pupiliary orifice was rednec, , d to a small black point; the skin was cold at the extremities, the pulse low and intermit ting. The patient was in a state of stupor, from which, however, she could be roused by speaking to her. Ten drops of the alcoholic tincture of belladonna were administered in a quarter of a ttamblerful of water, but were soon ejected. The next ten drops were given in only a teaspoonful of water, and this was retained, and this system was continued by five droPs of tincture at a time at short inter nals. The patient thus imbibed as much as -four grammes of thmture, and soon recovered. The second case is of a young woman who laid taken opium voluntarily with a view to commit suicide. The medical man called four hours after the net had been committed, and a large quantity of the poison must con sequently have already been absorbed into the system, The pupils were 80 contracted that the patient had lost the power of vision ; the jaws were iirmly locked together, nose and ex tremities cold, pulse slow and weak, and in sensibility general. As it was too late to ad minister emetics, thirty drops of tincture of belladonna were admimstered by forcing the jaws asunder with the handle of it Spoon, keep ing meantime the nostrils closed. The symp toins, however, became so alarming that the doctor administered upward of seventy drops of tincture more, by ten at a time, in less than half an hour. The pupils then began to dilate ; the patient was subjected to a good whipping, which reanimated her, and. the dangerous symptoms soon disappeared. A Pim:TRW:S Woria.—A London literary journal saps: Half a century since there Might have been seen in a few London book sellers, shops certain curious volumes on very strange subjects, the text in a plain hand writing,and the illustration pictures selected front various books. These pieces of literary industry were the labor of one Joseph Taylor, an industrious explorer of bookstalls and student et the great public libraries:. He left them with the bookselletS for sale at such fancy prieek as he thought they might possibly obtain from their customers. His topics were so strangely chosen that the publi-hers were afraid to publish his MSS.; and out of nearly one Inublred - works compiled by him, not more than half-a dozen were printed. visitors to the Industrial Exhibition now heing held in Covent Garden will probably have noticed a volume similar to those de. scribed above. It is the work of a London compositor, and describes his autumn rambles in the county . of Kent. The penmanship of the: volume, including its ornamental initial let- • ters of chapters, are sufficient evidences of in dustry; but it contains, also, a hundredfall page water-color views, and twenty 7 .4even drawingc, all sketched front na ture. The anthor, Mr. Milli= Damper, states that his book was commenced in 185 n anti com pleted in 181;4, the whole of the composition, writing,and delineation havingbeen executed during the leisure time before and after busi ness hours. A portion oVthe work, comprising an account of the town of Maidstone, together with a series of rambles over the neighboring hills, is, we understand, about to be published by subscription.
