Battle lasted two days, with conspicuous
valor on the American side, but with mani
fest cowardice on the Mexican side. The
young men from the Capitol of whom so
much was expected, fled at the first fire.
Large numbers of cannon, and an innumer.
able quantity of small arms, with more am.
muniton than Scott has used since he has
been in the country.
Numbers of muskets were thrown away
in the precipitate flight of the Mexicans, and
altogether it was the hardest fought battle
during its height, for two hours, that was
ever fought on the American continent.
Thirteen Mexican Generals killed or Ia
ken prisoners.

PUNISHMENT OF IDLE HUsBANDs.-The
head chief (of New Ireland) often mterferes
in minor matters of domestic nature; for
instance, if a lazy fellow has wife or two,
and few children, and, through his love
for fishing, dancing, and lettering idly about
negects to bring in the necessary supplies
for his family, a complaint is made, the
chief visits the house in person; and, if he
sees just grounds for punishment, he orders
out the whole population of the village
Men, women, and children, arm themselves
with stiff. birch, made of small canes; they
then form a long double line, about six feet
apart, and wait with anxiety the approach
of the delinquent. At last, he is placed at
one end of the lines, amidst shower of
wells, screams, iibes, &c. The word is
given by the chief, and away he darts at his
utmost speed, through the ranks, every one
endcavoring to hit him as he passes. Ac-
cording to his deserts, he may get off with
running once, or he may have to do so
twice or thrice; but he is skilled in cunning
and heetness that can run the lines even
once, without having his skin tickled for
him by the hearty application of the birch
welded by some strong women! As the
punishment is not of a fatal kind, the whole
