Senator, Hon. Jojjiii Hemplfill, upttiT
several uocunients ,*to <*,o«r
afeoftg others ^as a -pamphlet $
case.. Jdessrs. Ward & Reagan also
are very attentive to the Texian.#
We learn that gentlemen living on
and near what is known as the Bayou
road in this county, are engaged in the
laudable attempt to establish a Post-
office and procure a change in the
route of the Weiss' Bluff stage. At
present the stages are running what is
known as the ridge road, and after get-
ting a mile or two from town, pass
through an almost unbroken wilder-
ness to Bear Creek, a distance of about
thirty miles. On this route there are
but two or three settlersj the road
parsing over a pine ridge of as poor
land as is to be found in this or any
other country, while parallel, and to
the right of it a few miles, is a road
several miles shorter, traversing some
excellent lands, and passing through a
thickly settled country. But the ridge
road is high and dry, while that down
the bayou crosses several creeks and
and ^swamps, which in the:r present
ye condition are at gome^ea-
soirs Almost impassible. We learn,
however, that the citizens of that por
tion of the county, (many even who
are detailed upon other roads,) have de-
termined to go iO work and put their
road in good order, and we would sug-
gest to the County Court* that the
funds of the County could be expended
in no manner better calculated to be of
service to the people, than by aiding
them in their undertaking. Assist
them with a donation of from fifty to
one hundred dollars to such sections of
the road as may require it, so that sub-
stantial bridges can be erected and af-
ter that the regular workings will be
sufficient. There is no Post-office be-
tween this place and Bear Creek in
Sabine conntj, a nd on the rou te as now
travelled, there is no suitable location
for one, and no neighborhood suffic-
iently populous to justify the Depart-
ment in establishing one—but if chang-
ed to the other road, there1 might be
vone or two established, without addi-
tional cost to the Department. The
contractor would prefer the new road
if it is made practicable, and the peo-
ple are determined to try—-it only re-
mains for the County Court to give its
assistance, ai?d the thing is done.
Railroad Controversy.—We noticed
the other day a suit brought by certain
stockholders of the Houston and Texas
Central Railroad, to annul a contract
for construction entered into between
the directors and Mr. H, S. Adams,
and that Judge Grey had granted an
injunction against the execution of the
contract. The trial was to have -taken
place on the 8th inst., to decide wheth-
er the injunction be set aside or made
perpetual. In the meantime, the Di-
rectory have issued a pamphlet in de-
fense of the justness of the contract,
and imputing improper niotives-to those
who brought the suit. Mr. Bremond
replies, charging that the statements of
the pamphlet are unmitigated lies. He
says that while the contract is ostensi-
bly for £21,000 per mile, certain ex-
tras are included, which will, swell the
amount to $30,000, although the section
is remarkably favorable for locating
the road. We fear the quarrel will
eventuate in great injury to the intcr-
company.^

Great Fire in New Orleans.—On
Wednesday of last week the city of
New Orleans suffered from the Sever-1
est conflagration which has visited
them since the buying 0f tjie 0|d St>
Charles Hotel, It' occurred at the
lower cotton press iu the Third Dis-
trict, and resulted in the loss of ten
thousand bales of cotton, which, with
other property destroyed, makes an ag-
gregate loss of over one million dol-
lars. On Thursday another destruc-
tive fire occurred, commencing in the
Hale Warehouse, corner of New Levee
and^ Fulton street, and spreading to
many other houses in the vicinity ; the
loss was principally of heavy groceries
stored in the Warehouses, and is esti-
mated at $200,000. Almost the entire
loss on both occasions falls upon thg
insurance companies.

Man's Latent Powers.—How little
man knows of himself—of the wonder-
ful powers that lie latent within him,
requiring only the touchstone of oppor-
tunity to bring them to action. A po-
et has written,
The proper study of mankind is man,
and it is a noble line ; but where shall
we commence. What portion of his
mysterious being shall we explore to
find the alpha and omega of his pow-
ers ? It has been said " that poets
greater than Shakspearre have lived,"
but they lacked the opportunity to call
into action their higher qualities, and
died with the precious gift of song en-
trusted to them, unhonored by the
world. To great souls, in fact to eve-
ry soul, opportunity is the all-in-all.—

A Pra-jt'cal Joke-
An exchange is responsible for the
following :
Five and twenty years ago, when the
Western region was sparsely settled,
when the country bar room was the
place of common resort, and before
those old bar-room songs and stories
beer, he stopped a moment to consid-
er.
" I say, barkeeper! "
" What'll ye have, sir? "
" Have you got plenty of crackers
and cheese ? "
" Yes, sir."
" How much will the cheese weigh?"
" About sixty pounds apiece."
'•Full sixty ? "
" Sixty and no mistake."
" Well, just send over to the Far-
mers' Hotel, where I stop, four of the
cheese, and three barrels of crackers,
and charge them to them Mr. X., will
you ? You heard him say I was to have
what cheese and crackers I wanted ? "
" Yes, sir."
" And-send-them,down,soon, because*
I expect my team will betherein a lit-
tle time, and I shall want them all
ready."
" Certainly, sir."
The four cheese and the three bar-
rels of crackers were sent down, and
in the course of time Mr. X. w|s pre-
sented with the bill for the same,
which he paid, confessing at the same
time that, although rather expensive,
the joke was, nevertheless, a good one.
He never afterwards gave the cold
shoulder to Counsellor G.
Real and Imaginary Wants.—
Those only who have been in " better
circumstance," as the phrase runs, and
tasted the bitterness adversity, can tru-
ly realize the difference between the
actual and imaginary wants of human
nature. Ask them how much it takes
to render life desirable and you will be
surprised at the answer. Ah ! if we
could get rid of our artificial, senseless,
and expensive way of living, we should
find ourselves better off in purse, pros-
pect, and in heart. Let every one who
has any ambition to ga ahead in life,
try the experiment one year, and see
how much virtue there is in economy.
Make your expenses less than your in
come, and see how much you will have
gained, not only in money but in the
feeling that you arc in the condition
which the Yankees denominate " fore-
handed." Try one year.
