AS THE FACULTIES OF THE BODY, in
harmony with those of THE MIND, approach deve-
loped maturity, the rising human being, surrounded by
factitious circumstances—some salutary, some pernicious—
becomes susceptible of impressions which, according to the
degree of PRUDENCE and KNOWLEDGE with which he is en-
dowed, may be the sources of happiness or of unspeakable
misery.

Some of the most deadly and terrible of the influences last
referred to originate at that period when parents fondly hope
that the objects of their love are being prepared to fight
honourably the great battle of life—namely, the scholastic
and collegiate period. Habits are then contracted, in
unsuspecting ignorance of their effects, which, if not ar-
rested, tend to sink the VICTIMS OF ERROR to the deepest
depths of degradation and woe. The evil is aggTavated by
the apathy too generally evinced by the riled' al profession,'
not only as to the nature but the very existence of the
diseases arising from the cause indicated, and to which the
general and inadequate designation of "Nervous Disorders
hasleen given. One of the consequences of

their guns behind them, and at daylight yesterday
our troops entered the city, as the rear guard of
the enemy was flying out of it. The Stars and
Stripes now float over Winchester, and Generals
Gorman and Hamilton exchanged congratulations
aver the victory."
The following is front the same journal of the
14th :

" Everything continues quiet in the vicinity of
Manassas. A masked battery, mounting three guns
was discovered on Wednesday, on the Warrenton
turnpike, between Centreville and Bull Run. The
rebels, it appears, resorted to the Vandalism of poi-
soning the wells before their departure. Two men
attached to a Wisconsin regiment of Gen. Smith's
division were poisoned yesterday by partaking of
the water. Orders have accordingly been issued
prohibiting soldiers from using the old wells in the

exa-
mined by our officers, and the guns not destroyed by
the enemy are being disabled as far as possible.
" By our intelligence from Winchester there is
e
little doubt that the robelforces under Jackson have
retired to Strasburg, in which direction heavy fir-
ing was heard at noon yesterday, indicating that
the fugitives were blowing up the stone bridge over
the Cedar creek to prevent pursuit. It was reported
by some prisoners that the rebels intended to make
a stand at Strasburg, but it was stated by others that
Jackson will post off for Richmond when the news
of the evacuation of Manassas reaches him.
" Our trzops wore received with the utmost en-
thusiasm by the people of Winchester. The regi-
ments as they entered the town were loudly cheered
from the houses, and they warmly. replied to the
greeting.

" Our despatches from Fort Monroe yesterday
state that the Merrimac is afloat at Norfolk Navy
Yard, and a large force of workmen is employed in.
repairing her. Serious damage was done to one of
her prongs, and the forward part of the vessel was
stove in.

" By a despatch from Cairo we learn that the pro-
tection of Memphis seems to engage the serious at-
tention of the rebels. General Bragg has arrived
there from Pensacola, with a force of 10,000 men,
and it was thought they were sent forward to rein-
force New Madrid and Island No. 10, at which
latter point all the rebel gunboats are concentrated
under the famous Captain Hollins. Generals

strong
fortifications. Memphis is reported in a state of
anarchy. The citizens are flying from there, and
cotton, molasses, sugar, and other merchandise were
being shipped south. Such was the insubordination
of the citizens that martial law was proclaimed in
Memphis on Monday last, in order to compel the
people to tarn out and fight.
" In the late battle at Paris, Tennessee, our forces
defeated the rebels, 600 strong, and took possession
of the town on the morning of the 12th inst. Gen.
Halleck's official report of the battle puts down the
loss of the enemy at 100 killed, wounded and pri-
soners. Gen. Halleck also reports the defeat of one
of Price's guerilla parties near Lebanon, Mobile, in
which the rebel commander, Gen. Campbell, and 100
others were captured, 13 killed, and
_5 wounded."

On the 15th the New York, Herald says
" General M'Clellan reviewed a division of the
army in the vicinity of Manassas yesterday after-
noon ; and as he rode along the lines he was greeted
by the most vociferous cheers and wildest enthu-
siasm. The spirit of the army is represented as ex-
ceedingly fine. The men are full of anxiety to be
led into immediate action.
" A fugitive from Rappahannock, probably the
village on the Orange and Alexandria Railroad, 37
miles from Gordonsville, came into the camp of the
Ira Harris cavalry yesterday. He states that there
were 40,000 rebel troops in town when he left, and
that they continued to pour in wildly and hurriedly,
tinder the impression that the Union army was in
pursuit of them. General Johnston and other rebel
officers were dining at the tavern when he left. He
states that the road from Rappahannock to Maw
nassas is strewed with muskets, knapsacks, havre-
sacks, blankets, and provisions, flung away in the
retreat, and that numbers of soldiers lay fainting
/Ind exhausted by the roadside,
"Affairs in the west go on bravely. The President
received a brief but significant despatch last night
from Brigadier-General Strong, that New Madrid
is ours.' Hence the advance of General Bragg,
with his command of 10,000 rebels from Pensacola,
which was supposed to be intended to reinforce New
Madrid, comes too late.

" Dispatches from Cairo last night state that the
rebels abandoned New Madrid on Thursday even-
ing, leaving a quantity of guns and stores behind
them. Some fighting took place between the rebel
gunboats, under Capt. Hollins, and our siege bat-
teries, in which we lost 20 killed and wounded.
The loss of the enemy is not known, as they car-
ried off all their dead and wounded with them. It
was reported that Island No. 10 had also been eva-
cuated by the rebels.
" The Senate appears to be awake to the neces-
sity of providing iron•clad :war steamers for the
navy. A bill was introduced by Senator Hale, from
the committee on naval affairs, yesterday, providing
for the construction, under the direction of the Sec-
retary of the Navy, of an iron-clad steam vessel of
not less than 5,000 or 6,000 tons burden, and of
great speed and strength, to be used only as a ram,
for which purpose 1,000,000 dols. are to be appro-
priated; also 13,000,000 dole. for the construction
of iron-clad gunboats, 783,000 dols. for the comple-
tion of Stevens' battery, and 500,000 dole. for ex-
tending the facilities of the Washington navy yard,
so as to roll and forge plates for the armour ships.
"The rebel batteries at Aquia Creek are not yet
silenced. As the steamer Achilles, from New York,
was on her way up the river yesterday six shots
were fired at her from the batteries on the creek,
but they did her no damage."
There has been some severe fighting in New
Mexico, in which the Federals appear to have been
defeated. The following account is dated St. Louis,
March 12 :

" The St. Louis Republican has advices from
Albuquerque, New Mexico, of Feb. 23, which state
that the Texans have made various significant
movements in the vicinity of Fort Craig: On the
18th they advanced a column of infantry, 1,000
strong, in line of battle, in front of the forts, and
also moved a column of 800 cavalry to the west
of our defences. They advanced to within a mile
and a hal of the works, with the rebel flag
floating in the breeze. They remained in this po-
sition some time, and then commenced a retrograde
movement. During the time of their advance Col.
Canby prudently concealed the greater part of his
forces in the rear of the fort. When the enemy
commenced retreating, and the infantry was sepa-
rated from the cavalry, Colonel Canby ordered
Major Duncan to charge the cavalry of the enemy
with a squadron of dragoons and mounted men,
which was done in gallant style, the enemy
retreating before them until they arrived at a
deep ravine. The Texan infantry in the meantime
advanced to the relief of the cavalry, and a skir-
mish took place at the ravine. Major Duncan late
in the evening was recalled. The Texans continued
to fall back.
