A TKXAS OlHTUAltY NOTICE.
Texas was formerly the "Botany Bav" of
the United States, nnd consequently bor
early settlers were of tho daro-devil, coarso
aud illiterate class. The following obituary
speech is said to have been delivered in the
Texas Legislature, few years since.
It seems thero was a momoer belonging to
it by tho naino of Dill, who seceded from
that body while in scssiou, tho inducing

and a hick of wind. Un tho day which fol
lowed his decease, Mr. Ghcrken, a member,
arose to announce Uio melancholy fuct to
tho IIoubc. - Anolhoi member of that body,
named Slaker, was tho chronic opponent of
Ghcrken iu all matters of legislation, from a
cambiick ueodlo to n sheet-anchor, and
never neglected a chance to givo him i
shot. lit. Chcrkeu, after a solemn pauso,
said:

a lengthy and consequently protracted ty

ain't with feelings of no ordinary regret
that I make this yer communication to this
ycr orgust body, Mr. Speaker, for I knowed
him lrom a to lzznrd. lie, like all other

If ho was not strictly virtuous, who is I
put it to you and this yer orgust body to

ple say he didu't pay his debts ! Who docs
in Texas, Mr. Speaker? Among his virtues
ho was fond of encouraging tho breed of
that noble animal, thu boss, in the exten
sive manner; said, Mr. Speaker conscien
tiously attended every raco withiu twenty
miles to this yer place, aud iu a gentlemanly
manner baek'd his opinion unto certain
events in the future to tho extent of his
ability. Ho was a good and honest mac,
a ild n perfect gentleman, and by bis melan
choly disease society has lost a bright orna

ly over tho domestic circle of Mrs. Jones,
where, as I said before, board and lodgment
is furnished to tho members f this ycr
house at a uniform ju ice of four na'f a week,
wnshin' not included, Mr. Speaker.
Mr. Slaker here started up, saying that he
'arose to a poiut of order.
Tho Speaker requested tho honorable
member to 'state his pitit.'
Mr. Slaker said :
" 'Is it in order fur a member of this
house, iu his speech onto a dead man, to
ring iu u boardiu' house ki p' by his uuut
and furnished by himself?'1
Tho Speaker decided tho 'pint' to bo not
well taken, und after a withering glance at
Slaker, Mr. Ghcrken proceeded:
"This is too solemn a time, Mr. Slaker,
to notice personalities and side mark. I'll
see that his mutton is cooked hereafter, and
not on a melahcholy subject. To resume
tho deceased ; What ever can bo said of
him, no man can declare that he was not a
patriot! Look baffle on his rccod, and sco
what's thar I for Dr. Watts eloquently re
murks : 'By their record shall ye know
them.' Mr. Speaker what is thnt record?
Virtuo is its own reward, Mr. Speaker
and no great action was ever done but what
tho man who does it was uarxeu alter ny
somebody. But tho deceased, intrenched
iu tuo glorious armor ot patriotism, witu
hand upon this yer record, could defy chain
lightning in any shape, nnd when prostrated

the house of Mrs. Jones, whero as I had

of that bill, and that record, ami that pa

aud his sinking form like a heavenly angel,
and dentil cuuld not set him eveu a half

Due of the Anomalies of Literary History
is, that it has oftcu been tho lot of those
men who have contributed largely to tho
mirth or recreation of others to endure more
than art ordinary share of misery and want
in their own lives. The most entertaining
portions of literature have been written by
men whose hearts have been bowed down
by 6orrov, nnd at moments when that sor
row has been heaviest. It was in the gloom
of a mother's death, deepened by his own

Mr. William Perry (formerly mail carrier
between this city and Johnson's Island),
about 7 o'clock yesterday morning, dis
covered a boat load ot persons fast in the
ice, about thredfourths of a mile from tho
city. Ho immediately launched his boat
from tho dock of Osborn & Hill, at tho foot
of Columbus avenue, and at once proceeded
to the place of suh"ering. On arriving with
in hailing distance, and learning who tho
parties were and how situated, Mr. Perry
discovered that he could render them no
asHistanco ut nil without returning nnd pro
curing a piece of ropp, which he did w ith
out delay, and was soon followed -by "two
other gentlemen,' William Wilbur and De
Wit Fenton, in uuothcr boat. They sue- J
cccded, by throwing one end of the ropo '
across to the boat which contained the suffer
ers, in drawing them up on to thu sound
ice, when young Perry, by making threo
different trips, safely landed the whole
party at tho foot of the avenue.
The parties Ihus rescued from a threaten
ed cold batji iu the middle of tho bay, were
all colored persons laborers nn Johnson's
Island and left that place as early ns six
o'clock yesterday morning, with thu inten
tion of coming to this city to spend tho
Sabbath with their families. Their names
are Massus Brown, Dick West, William

tense cold had froren their boat fast in tho
treacherous ice, und tho heavy wind had
cut off their retreat to the island by making
open water fori a mile or more, while tho
storm threatened to break up the ice about
them aud Ieavo them no succor.
Much cretlit is duo to Mr. Perry for the
timely assistance rendered. He labored for
four hours iu spito of the cold, sibrm aud
danger, until he effected tho rescue. Such
courage and endurance should be rewarded.
After it was known 'who tho endangered
purty were, their colored friends gathered
at the end pier in an excited crowd, and

The New York correspondent of tho Illi
nois Journal says :
"I am called upon io record ono of tho
strangest phenomena of the times a grow
ing unpopularity ot that most popular insti
tution, thu marriage institution. It is an
importaut fact, one full of the deepest sig
nilicuuco, as well to political philosophy ns
the lightest gossip, thut tho number ef mar
riages is relatively growing less every year.
Especially is this so in cities, and most soiu
thu metropolis. The records of the public
journals, the statements of solemnizing min
isters, nnd the current observations of the
Leans of families, ut 1 concur that there is a
growing disinclination to many, which,
though just apparent now, may soon become
a serious matter. Thero havo been no mar
riages of consequence in what may be termed
"high life" this season, nor anything like
the usual number among the middle classes.
Xow and then wc see wedding curds, or a
bride at the opera or evening parties, but
tho number is astonishingly small. People
nrc of course, marrying all the time, but w ho
aro they ? people whom nobody knows.
Tho everlasting poor arc tying themselves

"When a man reaches that deplorable
condition that he has not a change of shirts
to his back, he is iu a Ct condition for the
sacrifice. That has always been a strong
incentive to the altar-bound, that when for
tune frowns her hardest, uud when things
have gone to their worst, many a man defies
fate, uud takes a wife. If his lot life im
proves, and it can hardly do otlmrwise, he
gives the institution the cretlit. In business
circles, and iu a social scale, there has al ways
been a premium ou marriage. 1 he man who
takes a wife gives hostages to fortune, and
has bound himself more firmly to the drudg
ery of toil. Merchants nnd bankers raise
the salary of a young man w hen he marries,
aud frequently relusc to do it until then. It
is remarkable that the extraordinary natural
proncness towards the dir sex should not
require hindrances instead of stimulants.
i et it has passed into proverb that ll u
man do not marry young, it grows less aud
loss profitable to him, uud this is, pel haps
after nil, tho best itrgumeul lor early mar
riages. It perpetually happens that of all
classes who mi'ht and ought to marry they
do not, while thoso who ought not, do."

that the sap can intermingle there is tn

make a shoulder to the fraft and thinkit
adds to tho cci taiuty ot success, though
probably weakens it. We prefer also two
eyes or buds to a graft, aud would rather
have only one than inoro than two. Ono

can bo obtained, as it is inoro certain to
take and grows inoro vigorously.
Wc wish to remind those about preparing

of rosin, one part of beeswax, n-1 one part

them together in a skillet, (which is the
best,) or a tiucup, and mix well. It should

It is established by so much concurrent

for Hog Cholera, that it can no longer bo

cultural papers in the West to this effect.

this statement 4'rom correspondent iu Mis

"In the Prairie IWmcr of tha 17th inst.,
bituminous coal is recommended as a pre
ventive of hog cliolcra. I can endorse this
from six years trial, having lost but one hog
iu that time. In 18G0 I had nineteen hog
intended for fall porkers, btc the cholera got
among them and killed eighteen. I modi:
uso of all the remedies I Could hear of, until
I saw it stated by soino writer, thnt "atone"
coal was an antidote for cholera. Since
then, I havo kept coal in their ranee, and
have lost but ono oiucc, (whether from
cholera or not I cannot tell) although hog.i
havo been dying with cholera all around
tno ; as many as a hundred on ono farm. I
have found coal ashes taken from grates,
better than uuburnt coal. The small pieces
of C3al and coke the hogs cat much mora
freely than tho entire coal ; it is softer and
more easily masticated. Ifany'ono shou'd
be induced to try the nshes, they will bo
surprised to eco the quantity hogs "will cat,

cause them to become very stout in tho
