A NEW REIGN OF TERROR. Professor Cleveland quotes the report of a special committee appointed by the Texas Government, to show that 939 homicides are known to have been committed in the State since the rebellion. North Eastern Texas, in particular, is infested by gangs of desperadoes, many of them soldiers of the old rebel army, who have not laid down their arms. Two men named Baker and Bickerstaff are among the worst of these wretches each is at the head of a band, and each plunders in a circuit which he styles his dominion. Baker has an especial hatred of the neg-roes, and he murders or maltreats nearly all of these unfortunates that come in his way. Some of his fellow-ruffians com- mand very large bands. In parts of the state as many as from 200 to 300 men, fully armed, have been seen drilling together at one time. A somewhat similar state of things prevails in South Carolina, where the late dreadful murders of the Hon. B. F. Randolph and the Hon. Lee Nance have excited the utmost indignation in the Republican bnd-V to whieh fhrv belonged.

DREADFUL SUFFERINGS IN AN OPEiV BOAT. The screw steamship Gipsy Queen, Capt. Nash, arrived on Sunday evening at West Hartlepool, bringing the crews of two vessels lost in the North Sea during the recent gales. One crew was that of the brig Jane of Whitby, Cap- tain Shaw, which foundered about 150 miles ee--twarcl of Flamboro' Head, on the 31st of Octo- ber. She was bound from London to the north, ir. ballast, and encountering the fearful gale which swept the North Sea at the end of last month, was unable live in it. When she sunk the crew took to her boat, and in this frail craft contended against the fury of the elements for eight hours, being all the time saturated with the sea water and almost perished with cold. When all hope was well nigh extinguished, they descried a sail in the offing, which bore down to their assistance, and they were thus rescued. The other wrecked crew which the Gipsy Queen brought belonged to the John and Ann, of Sunderland, Captain Bramingham, boand from Riga to Antwerp, which vessel was driven ashore in a gale on October 27, near the Holsohn Light and before they could be rescued from the wreck her captain was washed overboard and drowned.

There is a peculiar hunting dress, designated the bouton," from the fact that those who are entitled to wear a particular silver button are thereby marked as specially belonging to his Majesty's private hunt.

The invites assemble in the long gallery before twelve o'clock, when their Majesties and the Prince Imperial meet them, and proceed to the breakfast-room to partake of the second dejeuner, a meal which resembles an English luncheon. Their Majesties and their guests retire to write letters till the hour for the drive to the forest, which is usually fixed for two o'clock. The Empress herself selects the guests, and, with admirable tact, arranges that they should suit each other in taste, and, as much as is possible, belong to the same circle. The result is that the Compiegne fetes are remarkable for their gaiety and entrain. In the evening there are either private theatricals (in which Princess Metternich usually takes a leading role), danc- ing, or jeux de societe. The service of the palace is con- sidered by competent judges to be perfect as regards the punctuality and the attention paid to the special tastes and fancies of each guest. The Imperial train is so timed that the invitea reach the chateau at five o'clock. They are at once shown to their apartments, over the door of which their name is affixed. Wine, tea, biscuits, and liqueurs of several varieties are immediately served to them by a footman specially attached to their service during their visit, and who waits upon them at table.— Star.

A FINANOIAL GOAT. I Reckless Irish baronets have been often described as lighting their pipes with bank-notes, but never, that we remember, as eating them. That feat has been left to a goat in Prussia. A peasant, who had just returned from market with his receipts, unwittingly dropped a parcel of bank-notes in his stable. On discovering his loss shortly after, he rushed back and saw the last shred of a ten-thaler note disappearing through his goat's jaws. Acting on his wife's advice, he killed the animal at once, and rescued from his stomach a mass of pulp, which he presented to the puzzled bankers with a wild hope that they would cash it. The number on the half-devoured note was just decipherable, and that'was exchanged for money. The rest of the notes were to be subjected fo microscopical and chemical agencies, to endeavour io f-race their identity if possiblf

DEATHS FROM HYDROPHOBIA. About a month ago a man, nawd Elkanah Turner, joiner, of Ovenden, near Halifax, died of hydrophobia, from the bite of a dog which had been given to him to be destroyed, instead of which he sold it to Mr. Smith- son, of the Earl Grey ta*p, Old Cockyard, Halifax, when it bit him on the way to Smithson's house. The dog escaped from Smithson's premises the day fallowing, when it bit a man named Daniel Higgings, who began to show symptoms of hydrophobia on Monday week. when a surgeon was called in, who pronounced it to be a decided case of hydrophobia and, notwithstanding all that was done for him the unfortunate man expired on Sunday morning last with all the usual manifesta- tions of that horrid disease. The dog was destroyed the same day it bit the deceased.

PROVINCIAL MEDICAL STUDENTS. The annual return of the number of gentlemen pur- suing their professional studies at the nine recognised provincial institutions has just been forwarded to the Government Inspector of Provincial Anatomical Schools, from which it appears that the total number amounts to 284, being an increase of 27 over those of last year, although one old establishment has disappeared from the former list, but is, however, replaced by another, viz, the Cambridge University School. From this return it appears that the Birmingham Royal School of Medicine takes the lead with 72 pupils, and is followed by the Manchester Royal School of Medicine and Surgery with 63, Leeds 32, Liverpool 30, Newcastle- upon-Tyne 27, Bristol 20, Cambridge 17, Sheffield 13, and Hull 10 making a total of 284, which, added to the 1,194 metropolitan students, gives the large number of 1,478 gentlemen pursuing their studies in England alone for the medical profession.

I'lLf BLESSED IF I DO." Francis Taylor, a printer, Stratford-street, Lisson- grove, was charged before Mr. Cooke, at the Clerken- well Police-court, with deserting his wife and two children, whereby they had become chargeable to the parish of St. Mary, Islington. From the evi- dence of Mr. Messer, returning overseer of Islington, the defendant's wife and two children applied to him in the greatest of distress, and he admitted them to the workhouse. Diligent inquiries were made as to the whereabouts of the defendant, but without suc- cess, until a few days since, when he was met bv his brother-in-law and watched home. The defendant'said that he had been out of work, and the woman with whom he had been cohabiting had taken pity on him, and had supported him instead of his supporting her. His wife when he spoke to her was very impudent, and said she should do as she liked, and he could not stand that. Mr. Cooke said that this was a very bad case, that. Mr. Cooke said that this was a very bad case, and the defence set up only made the matter worse. He then sentenced him as a rogue and a vagabond to three months' imprisonment with hard labour in the House of Correction. The defendant: Please, your worship, when I come out shall I have to live with and keep my wife ? Mr. Cooke: Yes, most decidedly. The de- fendant Then I'm blessed if I do.

THE COLONIES. The monthly circular of S. W. Silver and Co., 2, 3, and 4, Bishop-gate Within, has just been published, from which we quote the following summary of latest colonial intelligence VICTORIA.—Melbourne.—Trade still dull. Heavy rains have at last fallen there is now a fair prospect that the crops and stock will do well. The treasurer anticipates that the end of the year will be i eached without a deficit. Government has introduced, and carried to a second reading, a bill to authorise the borrowing of about 2i ndili«ns in the English market at 5 per cent. debentures, redeemable in 25 years. The chief portion of this loan is to be expended in constructing a railway from Melbourne to the Ovens district, terminating at the River Murray, opposite the New South Wales town of Albury. The remainder of the money is intended for the completion of the waterworks and the graving- dock at Williamstown. A number of important gold dis- coveries made during the past month. Government has issued new regulations for the occupation of crown lands, which practically give free selection to the extent of 160 acras for each individual over the whole colony. The Chamber of Commerce has passed a resolution in favour of additional postal communication, via, the Cape of Good Hope, and Government is to be applied to, to subsidise the line. NEW SOUTH WALES.—Sydney.—Stocks have been materially increased by recent arrivals, and several ships are due. The wool season is opening early, and heavy shipments will reach London for the February sales. Breadstuffs unsettled purchases for immediate con- sumption only. Best flour, JB17 to .£18; inferior, j £ 15 10s. to X16 10s. country wheat, 6s 9d. to 7s. Re- freshing rains have fallen in all parts, the crops look vigorous, and the reports from all the agricultural districts are encouraging the wheat is half grown, and no rust has appeared. The governor has agreed to present the medals gained by exhibitors at the horti- cultural fête held during the visit of the Duke of EJ inburgh. SOUTH AUSTRALIA-Adelaide-Little change in com- mercial circles. Whiat of best quality, 6s. 9d. to 7s. flour, £ 16 10«. to £ 18. Total export ef wheat and fioar this year to September (at the rate of 45 bushels wheat to the ton) equals 19,712 tons of flour against 81,455 tons last year. The appointment of Sir James Fergusson as governor has given general satisfaction. QUEENSLAND.-Brisbane.-Trade has improved. The yield of gold from the quartz reefs at Gympie Creek con- tinues satisfactory some of the reefs are very rich; six cwt. of stone recently taken out of the Persever- ance reei was reported to contain at least one-third of gold; and 150 tons of quartz from the "Lady Mary reef" yielded on an average 69 oz, to the ton. Some thousands of people are on the ground. Wool and cotton freights to London, Id. per lb., and 5 per cent. primage. The Chamber of Commerce has passed a re- solution recommending a mail service via Torres Straits, and it is anticipated the subject will be brought before Parliament next sessien. TASMANIA,—Hobart Town. -The House of Assembly is considering an Amended Waste Lands Act, which is regarded as a great improvement upon those existing. Fourteen years are to be allowed to pay the purchase I money of 20s. per acre, with interest, in equal annual instalments. NEW ZEALAND.- lfe&lington.-Business does not im- prove. The weather tends to make matters still more dull, and the nonpayment of the usual monthly accounts by Government has brought about a scarcity of money. Sales have, in many instances, been made at a serieus loss. Mercantile bills, notwithstanding, are met with great regularity. Auckland.—Encouraging accounts continue to be received from the Thames gold field. Canterbury. —Wheat inactive superior samples 6s. Good plough- men and married couples with farm experience are much in demand. CAPE OF GOOD HOPE. Port Elizabeth. Heavy rains have falltsiij and an fibundaaf; harvest is antici- pated. NAT,IL.-Purban.-Trade has been checked by floods ¡ which occurred at the end of last month, a similar calamity has net happened since 1854. The total loss is estimated at £ 100,000, represented by produce, cattle, bridges, and buildings. The cost of construction of the Umgeni-bridge alone in 1864 was about £ 19,000; it is completely carried away. CANADA.-Montreal, -Business is improving. Agri- culturists with small capital, say X100 and upwards and skilled artisans, willing to work bard and fare roughly for the first year or two, are wanted, and would be certain of success. Agricultural labourers are in demand in the districts of Upper Canada, and in the Eastern townships. The Crown land agents have mil- lions of acres for disposal at about 3s. per acre. The emigration agents at tke chief towns give advice and assist in forwarding emigrants who need it to their destination. ARGENTINE REPUBLIC.—Buenos Ayres.The vrool clip of 1868-9 is estimated at 200,000 bales, or 7,000 000 J arrobas. Money is abundant; trade quiet. The wheat crop promises well, and it is anticipated there will be a Surplus for exportation.

SAD CASE OF ACCIDENTAL POISONING. An inquest has been held at the Council House, Salis- bury, before Mr. Nodder, deputy coroner, oa the body of Mr. Thomas Foot, hairdresser, Fisherton-street, who died on Monday, from the effects of poison. It ap- peared from the evidence of a y onrger brother that the deceased was taken ill after returning from a walk on Monday morning. Mr. Coates was called in, and found him suffering from the effects of strychnine, of which he said he had taken as much, in a crystallised form, as would cover a threepenny piece, to "steady his hands." He told his brother that a youug maD, living near Wincanton, had advised him to take it; but be did not appear to have any idea that such a cose as he had taken (about three grains) was fatal to life. Mr. Coates applied the usual remedies, but without avail, and death took place about two o'clock. The jury returned a verdict of Death by misadventure." The deceased was about 33 years of age, and was said to have beell a. temperate man.
