Emigration to Trxas.?According to
a paragraph in the Men phis (Tenn.) En- (
quircr, emigration to Texas is going forward
on a large scale. The editor says:
"There is scarcely elbow-room left in our
streets and highways leading into town,
r?n nrcuiinl r?f the rnnslant nnnrinrr in nf
I ts
horses and wagons, and the helter-skelter i
melee of emigrating paraphernalia. Several
hundred families must have crossed i
the Mississippi at this point, on their way I
to the promised land, within the last six
weeks; and the rush is still onward. We
almost fear for the population of Bast
Tennessee; for not a wagon passes but
some dozen cliicls belonging to it, poke
their flaxen heads through the holes of the
canvass."
The Earliest- Language.?One of
our Glasgow papers speaks of a new Edin 1
burgh publication, written by Lnchlnn 1
Maclean, to prove the Celtic t<^ be the
language oi the first man. It is entitled
"Adam and Eve. or the Gcneology of the
Gael." The announcer ol the work remarks:
"Our readers will, perhaps, be inclined
to smile at this title page, and to say that
the author cannot seriously mean to establish
the point which he professes to prove.
But we assure them that Mr. Maclean
does really proceed to demonstrate the
position; and if every one will not agree 1
with him in the conclusion at which he 1
arrives, all who carefully peruse his book '
will admit, that he has marie ant n rtreftv ?
strong case for the Adamite origin of the 11
Celtic tongue. The plan of the work is (
both original and ingenious. After adilu- '
cing the opinions of several celebrated
scholars, such as Bayly, Blair, Malcom, 1
and the late professor Murray, as to the
antiquity and affinities of the Gaelic Ian- '
gunge, and adverting to the first slate of
man, the author brings the animals before 1
the common parent of our race, and shows
that the different names which he assigned
them, -can be traced to a Celtic root,
and are expressive in that language of ,
some prominent characteristic of the spc- j
cies. He then goes on to demonstrate ,
that every word in the great dictionary of |
nature is to be fouud jn the dictionary of (
the Gael. The arguments of a reverend
gentleman in Perth, as to the Hebrew br
,i.. i e t> 1 1
mg iiic in j inuuiM', art; ncxi
c o in bolted with remarkable success. This j
indeed, may be considered one of the
ablest parts of the book. Our author (
gives a veiy lengthened specimen of the (
Gaelic, as written by the Gael in the
nineteenth century after, and as written j
by Moses and others 2(100 years before (
the Christian era; and those who bad not (
previously considered the subject, would '
really be astonished at the similarity which
he traces between them. But it is unne- r
ccssary to analyse the book farther. We !
are sure that, from what our readers will '
see ntay be expected, their curiosity will
be excited, and no Celtic scholar will bo
long without a copy. Indeed, every Highlander
should be proud of 'Adam 6c Kv?>.'
We ihinl? that the derivation are sometimes <
rather fanciful, and that the connection \
between some of the words is not alwn\s
sufficiently clear but that is just; the fault <
which might he expected in any work of a
ihe kind. The Gaelic is admirable; and
the language occasionally rises irftu elo- i
]ucncc. Mr. Maclean is already well
known as the author of a History of Iona, t
>ut the present production, wc venture to
>redict, will considerably enhance his t
amo." c

Bulletin.
The following is among the resolutions
adopted at the late 'tremendous meeting of
the Democratic Republicans at Tammany
Mali," in New York.
'Resolved, That wo consider the system
of collecting the public revenue by
the agency of Sub-Treasurers as peculiarly
objectionable in principle; that the lau
guagc of the Globe in 1834, then the organ
of the Administration, truly depicts
''the proposition as disorganizing and revolutionary,
subversive of the fundamental
principles of our Government, and of
its entire practice from 1789 down to this
day;" that *'it is as palpable as the sun
that the effect of the scheme would be to
!>ring the public treasure much nearer the
ictual custody and control of the President
ban it is now, and expose it to be plunlercd
by a hundred hands, where one
:annot reach it;" and that any system
which in 1834 was fraught with such imminent
dangers as to be condemned by a
unanimous vote of the Democratic Members
of Congress must be now radically
wrong, and undeserving the support of
a free and enlightened people.
Law of Alabama.?An act to suppress
the use of Bowie Knives.
Section 1. Be it enacted by the Senate
and House of Representatives of the State
of Alabama in General Assembly convened,
that if any person carrying any
knife or weapon, known as Bowie Knives,
or Arkansaw tooth-picks, on a sudden
rencounter, shall cut or stab another with
inch knife, by reason of which he shall
suffer the same, os if the killing had been
>y malice and aforethought ,
Section 2. And bo it further enacted,
hat for every such weapon sold or given,
>r otherwise disposed of in this state, the
person selling, giving or disposing of the
mmc, shall pay a tax of one hundred
lobars, to be paid in the county Treasury;
itul if any person so selling, giving, or
lisposing of such weapon, shall fail to
