JUGGERNAUr.-The great procession
ofJuggernaut has this year been char.
acterized by the renewal of voluntary
sacrifices, which it was believed had been
put final stop to by the English.
"Five devotees,1n to the agents
OF the government, raised on an elevated
position near the Pagoda of Bali, cast
themselves under the wheels of the gi.
ganiic car carrying the idol, and were
literally crushed to pieces. The en,hu-
siasm ofthe multitude was so much ex.
cited by the fervoF Of the devotees, that,
but for the Intervention of an armed force,
hundreds of victims would have shared a
similar fate. The government may sup
press the procession; butt Christianity alone
can root cut the superstition"

SKETCHES OF THE WAR.
Confidence Of Rank and File in Com.
mdnderS.

One of the most striking things that has
been observed during our operations, is
the extraordinary effect produced upon the
rank and file of the army by the presence
of the general officers. Two instances
of this kind came under my notice, and
have no doubt there are a great many
more. On the evening ofthe 10th Aug,
when the first demonstration was made
on the command of Valencia,a at Contreras,
the commands OF Colonel Riley and Cen
eral CadwaIader had crossed the Pedre-
gal, and arrived on the left flank of the
enemy about o'clock, P. NJ. As soon
as the Mexicans ascertained their posi-.
ton, they brought round their cavalry, and
made strong demonstration towards
them, while at the same time they opened
two or three pieces of artillery upon them.
Az this junction heavy reinforcement
from the city, made its appearance, under
the immediate command of Santa Anna
himself Thus the two brigades became
situated, with Santa Anna heavy column.
with artillery on their right; the tort,
with twenty-five pieces of artillery, on the
left, and column of about 5000 lancers
on the hill Immediately in front. The ma.
ture of the ground, being covered with ir-
regula: and unbrOken rocks of lava, pre-
vented their retiring, even under cover OF
the night; nothing could be seen of our
force advancing-at first intended to bear
upon the other flank of the enemy-and
truly, matters looked gloomy enough in
the isolated command. AS soon as Col.
Riley's brigade emerged from the little
village on the banks of the deep ravine,
the lancers in front charged down upon
him and give you his own version and
language "They charged me again, and
| again formed square; but they would
not come closer than thirty or forty yards,
when they wheeled and ran away the
second time. found they were afraid to
try my square. They charged me the
third time. | waited until they came
close enough, and then charged them and

completely surprised the lancers, thai
they withdrew to their first position, or
the ridge of the hill, in front, and We fell
back to the village, to where Gen. Cad
walader was. The whole command now
began to look around and view their po'
sition. Here was a force more thar

one of more than double theirs in front; i

so confident was Santa Anna that sucl
would be the result, that he sent an ex
press to the city announcing that he had
got one column ofthe Americans into sucl
position that they must either surrende
or be cut to pieces, as il was impossible
for them to get away. Affairs looket
gloomy; the brigade Of Col. Riley nov

BY JESSE e. DOW.
The brazen trumpet calls to arms;
The flag of battle waves
Young Valor flies from Beauty's charms
And every danger braves;
Ihro' dreary wastes and painless woods
The volunteer goes forth.
And shouts amid the solitudes
The war-cry of the North.
Above the dead of other days
The glittering flies advance;
In passes wild, their cannons blaze
And many a cleaning lance;
On lofty towers and dizzy heights,
On ramparts sown with death,
The Eagle of the North alights,
And braves the battles breath.

Their fathers pride and stay;
They lisped the patriots oath, and sun 9
The hymn of glory's days;
The swords of Seventy six they bear,
The old drums lead them on,
The starry fag-Oh! it Is there
AS when its fame was won.
They ight-they bleed-they wiu-.hey die,
They sleep on every hill
The Aztec mind, with streaming eye,
Above them watches still:
The rivers, whispering Ger their sands,
Their names to mountains tell,
And Fame repeats to other lands
How Freedoms soldiers fell.
They fght-they bleed-they win-they live;
They tread the royal halls
Their open hands rich blessings give
To Poverty's and thralls;
Their starry flag floats wide and free
Der Superstition's cells,
The valleys thunder liberty,
And high the anthem swells.
Who strews with thorns the soldiers way?
Who calls him back to shame!
Who scorns the brave in glory's day,
And brand his honest name!
Who bids the conqueror's banner trail?
The lion hearted turn?
On! NAME THEM NOT! but draw a veil
Around their living urn.

Have spoken those whose longing has been ever,
To raise the moral world. Through the long past
The gloomy cloud Of error hid from view
This undiscovered spot; and they were few,
Who. searching BY The light Of truth, could cast
Full on the shadowy veil 5 kindling ray,
And pierce halfway its darkness; but, thank
God,
Those few were multiplied, and day by day,
That light increased, till mid the glowing food
That like the noontide sun streamed clear and
bright,
The fulcrum stood revealed-and 10 ! the Right !!
Then with the tireless energy Of love,
Flinging their levers on its summit broad,
And,siraining every nerve, they toied and s:roye,
Till one by one they fell asleep in God.

And row, o We true hearted ones, as ye
Look down through hoary centuries, and see
With horror, yet with thankfulness. the vast

.T0NHOSE knowing themselves indebted to the To-
/ p1 Capital Reporter, for subscription or adver-
easements, respectfully reminded that The small
amounts sevearlly due from them are highly neces-
sary in order to enable the undersigned to embark
in some new business for livelihood. They are
therefore earnestly requested to be prepared Tor the
coming of Mr.. GEO. w. GALLOWAY, our travelling
agent, and to settle with him in the true spirit of
equity and amity.
The subscribers to the Reporter are so widely
scattered throughout this State, that it will take a
long tnfe for Mr. Galloway to make the tour to all
of them, but he will call each in turn soon
possible during the ensuing season. In the mean

otherwise to in person this this city, in

RET d. PALMER or GEO. PAUL, who are also auth
orized to receipt for dues in my name.
Those who not prepared at the time to pay
the fun amounts Of their dues, will be expected to
settle by note; though the advance price, $500 a
year in hand, will be much more acceptable than
notes OF hand at the highest rate for deferred pay
ments, on persons in different and remote parts of
the State. AS misunderstanding may arise in some
cases, which would be readily reconciled could at
tend to the matter in person, my agent has nstruc-
tions to deal on the most liberal and amicable terms
with all who sincerely DESTROYS of settling
up.
Being determined that no just cause Of COM
plant Shall exist on my part, and hoping to meet
with reciprocal feeling and disposition in those
indebted to me, the same liberal principle by which
my dealings with subscribers has thus far been reg
uated, will be observed in the final settlement of
accounts. They need hardly be reminded of the
importance of the small items due from each, which
though separately insignificant, go to make up a We
