" . - - 1 til Victory 4 , - Tliere occurs tliis week the anniversary of j ? j- one of the most IntorcntIti uudeyeutTill bat ' s * • ties hi American history , though one but little | , J remembered. It is un anniversary that recalls & ' ' the strtiirKlu at races of which the southern 'p x < Dortlon of this continent wits the scene from lr,7 the days of Christopher Columbus down to jjJjT' our own time. Spanish settlements were jjpV made In Texas as early as 10'J2 ; these , how- lJ. " " ever , were merely lrailine ; establishments. 7 % * Texas was formerly claimed by both Spain and WfP J the United Slates , and became the subject of ' lone ; negotiation between the two govern ments , which resulted in u relinquishment on the part of the United States to the territory in question. President Jackson made an at- i , " tempt to purchase Texas from Mexico , but t , failed. The proposition of Jackson to pur- lite' . . chase wus opposed by many of our citizens , $ ' • , ' . whp viewed a further extension pf territory as if , dangerous to the Integrity of the Union. mjh ( Texas had rather been a curse than a blessing ; ( py * to any of its numerous cla'mauts being lirst \jsr ( ' t H wrested from the natives by Spain and re- &T' ' gained by the Mexicans. i < IV In the year 1821 Stephen F. Austin , a native hr ' of tiic state of Connecticut , appeared on the j u. . Brazos river in Texas to fulfill and carry out a jT.L contract of his father , who had obtained a it , 1 r , grant for a large body of land which he was * * " ' to colonize. Mr. Austin planted his first colo ny ou the Brazos river , and belmr a mau of un common fidelity and enterprise , his inter course with the Mexican government being marked with a rigid compliance with his cn- tragement , for a number of years he had the unlimited confidence of the olllcersof the gov ernment , from whom he could receive any favors , and In return received the unlimited confidence of his colonists , and Texas was fast becoming a valuable domain. The colonists , with the intelligence , energy , and thrift bo I iharactcrlstic of their race , were making rapid advances in wealth and comfort , but a crisis arrived , aud war with all its fury and horrors commenced. San Antonio and Goliad were in the posses sion tjf the Texas troops , and a large Mexican force had been ordered to operate airaiust thsm. On the 21st of February , 1S30 , the Mexi- za.li Gens. Sessma , Filasola , and Cos were or- Jcrcd to lead one division of the Mexican army an San Antonio , Gens , fjnea and Garory a Second division , commanded by Santa Ana in person , was to move as circumstances might require. The first division of the Mexican army ap peared before San Antonio on the 22nd of ? cbruary , and of the progress of the sieirc of ; he Alamo Col. Travers' last letter was on the Jrd of March. He says : "I am besieged by .housands of Mexicans , and with 140 icon I save defended the Alamo for ten days against t force of 3,000 , and unless I tret relief I will Derish in its defense. " Col. Travers and his rallant band did perish , as they fell to a man. Their lives , lioivever , were dearly sold , and the yletorv gained over them was little better than i defeat. Santa Ana. flushed with his ill-cotten stic- ? ess , believed that Texas was in his grasp , tnd with his remaining force advanced upon Huston's small force on the Colorado river , tlusten fell back to the Brazos river , and from hat stream retreated to the San Jacinto river. He was unwillimr to hazard a battle so long is hopes were entertained of gaining tiny ad- 7autage by retreating. He intended Tetreat- ng to "Nacodoches , where he knew of Tein- ! orcements , and it was not until after loud complaints from every quarter he decided to stake his'reputation ami the fortunes of Texas • ) n one decisive effort. L Tie'was commanding a most determined I 'et of men.who \ earned to retaliate for the * % y , shameful butchery of their friend's at the i ilamo and Goliad. An hour before sunset on \ : he 2st ! of April , IS i , Huston with his 783 lien all told , attacked Santa Ana with his 1,500men , advancing with the war cry "Ke- licmtier ibe Alamo. ' ' The Texans advanced , • eceivinir the Mexicans' tire , to within point- | Dlank shot before they fired a gun. In less l : han two hours a vanquished foe lay bleeding [ jn the battle-plain. A few uukille.I men . were victors over nearly double their number 3f well-skilled soldiers , who were surfeited , vith treasure and human blood , and their ' % " oroud and hauirhty chief a prisoner , begging • ' " or quarter ami mercy , both of which were rk. 'foreign to his own heart and his own mode of m i ( * - ' * * - . . , ' arfaie. Santa Ana , the captured , was a r | ' leartless demon.

Its results arc raT * wonderful. It established the independence ' /k'l ) f Texas ; the cstablishingof it into a republic ; : Ek " die annexation of it to the American union ; a fjpT" " A-arwitli Mexico , the consequence of which \ * * * * ' ' • ras"theacquisitionof XewMexico.

For all time f ; -o come will the 21st of April , 1S3G , be regard- ft . d as the birthday of Texan independence , the . & " lav on which Texas was delivered from Mexi- pir ; an bondage. In the magnitude of its results fcj" ' . : he battle of San Jacinto is without a pnrallel E- " p the history of the world.

He was bom in 1815 and was one of the smal lest babies known , weighing only nine ounces. He now weighs but sevent . v-slx | > ounds , and is only forty-live Inches iu height. One of the the largestinen of modern times was Samuel Murfitt , who died In England a few weeks ago. He was 0 feet 1 inch high , and weighed 50(1 ( pouuds. Th rt of his waist was nearly 10 feet , and It U.oti a tape-line 20 inches long to encompass the calf of his legs. No hearse could be found large enough to carry his bodv , and it took twenty men to lift the coilln through the window to an open wagon. He was a native of Wimblingtou , Cambridgeshire , and was fifty-five years old. John Tipton , a sexagenarian resident of Taylor County , III. , has just begun the stud- dy of Greek. Hislife has been one of inces sant toil on a farm , with scant opportunities for study , but every year he put aside a small sum of his earnings , and think * he has now- enough to keep him in comfort the rest of his days. He never went to school iu Ids boy hood , and did not learn to read and write un til well ou in life. Washington Countv , Pa. , has a veteran of three wars iu Ishani White , who says he was born iu Southern Georgia iu li < 0. He was one of those who fought behind the cotton bales under Gen. Jackson at New Oilcans , and thinks it was a bullet from his musket that killed Gen. Packenham. the commander of the British forces on that occasion. He served against the Indians iu Florida iu 183(5 , and was a volunteer under Gen. Win- field Scott in Mexico. His love for "Old Hickory" amounts almost to reverence , and he says that he votes for him at every Presi dential election. The shortest reigning monarch is the Em peror of China , who is only 5 feet high. Em peror William , of Germany , is the tallest , be ing just G feet in height.

Xcw York World. ' Murray's Tribute to Beech er. Lincoln emancipated men's bodies , Beecher emancipated tlieir minds. The one 'delivered them from injustice ; tlie other from super stition. The ona was buried amid the tears of his countrymen ; the other with the ad miring tributes of mankind. Both were the gift of God. T he one that America might be free. The other that Christendom might be enlighten cd. I mourne.l over Lincoln's grave as over t he savior of libertv dead. I mourn over ttie goi ng of Beecher as at the depart- urcof a seer of God. To Beecher were given eyes that were not born of the flesh nor limited as to { their pow er by the capacity of the senses ; eyes that saw through and within the circumference even to the center of things ; that saw the long parallels of truth without contraction aud so ever beheld unfolding before them the wide horizous of God and not a mere point of hu man determining. He looke 1 and saw. lie gazed and beheld , and what had been hidden to others to him was revealed. For he saw- as none ever saw , save the seers of God , the hidden aud the sweet things of life overlast- ing.And And to this power of vision was added a voice. A voice that said to the eyes lI will tell what you see whether men bear or for bear. " Aud it did. And for years it sane and thundered , and nun hearing trembled or wept , laughed or cheered the voice which none might resist , for the power of judge ment , of honor aud tenderest loving was in it I say not farewell. For thou art. not ? rone , only vanished. Ami our eyes shall see thee again and our ears shall hear the songof tin- lips , even wiser than ever , and our hearts shall hear the beating of thine aud glow as of old ; for thou art a teacher and prophei ot God foiever and ever ; and we are all nieu and thv pupils. So 1 say not farewell , as do maiiv , but rath er , ' 'Good speed and far going ! " Thou art liv ing a new flight , and with wings that tire not. Tliou art speaking and looking and learning. Thou art seeing strange sights and wide views , and ever deep depths thou art. poising and be yond these are heights thou shait reach them ! And with tliee fly manv who are wise aud far sighted the seers of all aes and the prophets of all peoples , and by tbum thou art taught and them thou art teaching , of God , many named , but one only. Good speed ! Good speed ! Say we then. Thou art gone but we follow. For by and by , toiling onward awhile and then mounting up ward , we will come we with manv and then thou shalt tell us of all thou liast seen and ieach us again of meicy aud truth aud the "Way of Life Everlasting.

In a countnlike France , where fathers and mothers are too apt to hoard up.for their chil dren , the brilliant coeotte was useful ; she pulverized fortunes and scattered them broad cast. The rich families were kept by her from becoming too rich , aud trade csoved faster be cause of her prodigality. Indeed , she was tlie motive power which kept workshops going in which sumtuary articles ot a iuxurious kind were made. The Ungcret aud ihe bla ichis at- scs de Jin flourished during herceign. I recol lect a suit against Blanche d'Antigny ( the original of Nana , and for a time the brightest star of the Khedive Ismail's .theatre ) which bears out what I now say. It was about < a la undry bill which Blanche contended ought to be cut down. One of the items was , 1 re member , for the doing up an uiidcr-garincitt which Lady Harberton , perhaps , would not object to name , or to see worn jis an outer garment. This vesture was the finest cam bric and Valenciennes laee. The getting-up of it , with a few darns in the Jace , came to 133 f. ! The judge declared pocr man ! hs incompetence to tieciue between the claim of the plaintiff aud the contention of .the defend ant , although the counsel of the latter offered to produce the gaiment in question ; so an expertise was ordered , and the expert reported that the laundress was really moaerate in her charge. Fancy boot and shoemakers also mourn for the disappearance of the-iirilliant Lais who brought the high-heeled boot with twenty or thirty buttons into fashion. She never meant to walk in it , but only wanted to display , sitting in a victoria , her foot encased in this piquant and very troublesome kind of ehaussure. Paris Letter to London. 1'ruth. The Queen as it GirL Fifty years ago we had the Queen , .a dain6y little maiden , only 4 feet 10 iuches Iu. height , with a delicate figure , a flower-like face , s slender arm and an exquisitely poised head. The face was a little pensive , but nevertheless mirthful , the corner * of the mouth turning up as decidedly as they now turn dowu ; the tendency of the upper lip was to curl , allowing a mere suggestion of white teeth To appear. A simple gown of soft white India muslin , bound round the small waist with satin rib bon and embroidered with field daisies , string ) ! of pearls wound round the white throat and tapering arms left modestly bare , complete the picture of the youthful niece of George IV. And now the enemv of womankind has stolen a triumphant march upon Victoria. But ont thing neither time nor flesh has deprived th Queen of , and that is the really regal bearing , the erect figure , uplifted head and firm tread which in her triumphal entry into Westminstei Abbev fifty years ago led the beholders to de clare that she was a tall woman.
