FAMILY GOVERNMENT.
ny THE REV. BISHOP ANDREW.

We have a few more remarks TO make
on the subject Of educating boys, which
we shall Introduce here, although they
may seem to be little out Of the proper
connection. We allude TO the practice of
starting little fellows TO school at five or
six years Of age, aud keeping them al il
till they graduate. We regard this an in
judicious course, so far as il IS TO affect the
child physically or mentally. IL he is
siudious at this early age, his constitution
is necessarily impaired, and his pale coun-
tenance gives proof that the seeds of death
are sown prematurely in his outer man.
doub, The proprieiy of sending a little
boy 10 school before he is seven or eight
years old. Let his mother and father, or
his sisters. teach him TO spell and read al
home. This may be done by little at
ienlion without taxing the boy with too
much confinement. Let him meanwhile
run about in the sun or on the snow or
frost or in the rain occasionally, and don't
lei the mother be aiarmed, If the little dar-
ling comes home al might pretty well spat-
tered with mud or covered with dirt, from
wading in the branch or rolling in the
sand. And now his days work is done,
and he will keep awake long enough for
the necessary cleansing process. and then
be sure to refuse him the comfort Of even
soft matirass, but just furnish him with
blanket or bed-quilt, and he will find
many plank on the floor soft enough TO
afford him a comfortable bed on which he
will sleep soundly I'LL morning calls him
forth again to heal,hiul play. Not few
parents murder their children by their ex-
IRENE carcfulncss 10 protect them from
all exposure TO disease. They fear TO let
little master 90 into the hot sunshine Tor
fear he will get fever, and he must by
no means wet his feet for fear OF catching
cold, and then the mother is all the while
in a sort Of purgatory for fear he will eat
apples or plums or peaches or water mel
ons, and get sick, and die. Now ii is my
sober and deliberate judgment that this is
all worse than folly. Your child requires
the benefit of sunshine and open air, and
think an occasional shower likewise, just
as much as the plants in your garden.
Let him have them freely and fear no bad
consequences. ! love to see little boy
full of life and frolic, ready to hound a
way like the lawn over hill and dale; nor
do | obiec, 60 a little mischief in his COM
position, provided il issues in nothing
wicked. So long as his childish FRANKS
) have nothing sinful, or cruel, or ill-natured
in them, they dom, interrupt me: and as
to this matter of eating fruit, about which
some prudent parents make such an ado,
tits all unnecessary. God has provided
the various fruits of the earth for our health
and comfort, aud has wisely adjusted their

Of deep regret that this overweening fond

be so prevalent among both fathers and
sons in this country and that cOnsequent-
ly so few of our educated young men can
condescend to be any thing but doctors or

dred arts and employmenis are deprived
of the aid and light which well cultiva-
ted intellect and profound science might
bring to il. The fact is we have great
need of hundreds of we'll educated and en-
terprising agriculturlsts and school mas
tiers, while of lawyers and physicians the
supply trebles the demand. We pray
old men and young ones, TO take this mat
ter into consideration, and select your av-
ocalion in view of an honorable compe-
tency and correspondent usefulness.

How Gen. Taylor inspires his Soldiers
with Confidence.

The Camagro correspondent Of the
New Orleans Tropic gives some interest
ing incidents of Gen. Taylor's manner in
the battle field of Buena Vista. "During
the baltle," he says, "ihe ID Kentucky
regiment of infantry became closely en-
gagged with the enemy's slancers.' From
the overwhelming number of the lancers,
the Colonel, considering his regiment lost,
and about to be cut TO pieces, dispatched
his adjutant to Gen. Taylor, TO say TO him
that his regiment was completely surroun-
ded-lhai he was fighting hand TO hand,
and that in all probability he would be to-
tally annihilated, and to ask Gen. Taylor
what he should do. .-..
Gen. Taylor promptly replied TO the
Adjutant, whose countenance was the per-
fec, picture Of despair, in The coolest man
ner imaginable, saying, GO tell your Col
onel that he has got them just where he
wants them. and now is the time to give
them Jesse Whereupon. the Adiutant
wheeled his horse. clapped his spurs to
him, dashed up TO the little band, and
shouted at the top of his voice, boys,
General Taylor says we've got them just
where we want them, and now's our time
10 give them h--ll.' The intrepid Ken
luckians caught the impulse like electrici-
~, raised cheer, and with their naked bay
onets, in less time than | have been rela-
ting it. routed them completely, and drove
them from the field.
About half past o'clock, on the 23d,
when Santa Anna saw that his all depen-
died on breaking Gen. TayIor's line, and
silencing Bragg's battery of six poun-
ders, which had been pouring death and
destruction into his ranks all day, he or
dered one desperate charge Of about 5000
upon the battery. Bragg saw
them approaching, and fearful. from the
overwhelming number, that he might lose
his pieces, prepared to take another more
defensible position. The eagle eye of
the gallant Captain Mansfield, Of the en-.
gineer corps. saw, at glance, bat the
fate Of the day depended upon Bragg's
holding his position. He Immediately
rode up 10 Gen. Taylor, (who, from his
position, had not observed the movement)
explained the circumstances to him, and
then said. j beseech Of you, sir, that you
will not permit the battery to novel
) No sir, no sir, not al ALT said the &C.
neral. sTell them not TO move one inch,
but TO give them grape and canister
While Bragg was Staying them right,
left, and centre, Gen. Taylor quietly rode
up behind him without being observed,
and in an under tone of voice, said, a lit
tie more grape, Captain Braggr Those
few words so completely inspired him
and his men, that they fired with redou-
bled vigor, and the result shows the effect
Of :" little more grape"

The Comusecc,ai obviously finds ii impossible to
chalk oot a future course for the Wing party IA
language which does not pointedly condemn its own
past alterations. What 1t now c0mmends Is pre-
cisely what the last Wing State Convention did IN
nominating four candidates for Justices Of the Court
of Appeals. Yet Messrs JORDAN aud WBirTLt-
syr who had been faithful and efficient Wings ever
since there was any Wing party and whose hdeH'
~ and fitness no man affected to doubt were OPP
posed by the Commercial n Co not because they
were anything else than Wings but because some
who held views which the Commercial disikes pro
posed to vote for them and they did not repe such
support And Il is because Of this very treacbery
that we now ask that the Wing party shall say
frankly. through it's next State Nominations,
whether dscrcp ancies Of opinion among Wings on
Land Reform, &c shall be made pretexts for ostra-
cism and Observation-Disclosures, in short, a Wing
who sympathizes with the Reform NOV ements

shall try our best to elect them though, IN our
humble judgment, it will be much harder Job to
carry such ticket than it would be if all who agree

by the Wing party in the Resolutions Of It's National
and State Conventions were allowed to consider /
themselves fully at home IN the party aud equally /
