We find in ,he Boonssille (AIo) observtereofthe
26th ullmo, The following details Of one oshe most
shocking barbarities committee in a community Of
civilized people,. sorevohing 10 human nature is
the statement, we scarcely can give il credence:
: In Morgan county, net long ago, citizen
died, leaving q widow and two small children,
the Oldest girl, about seven years Of age
Not long after the death of her husband the
woman married again Seen the girl died,
and very recently the boy was reported miss
ing.
The sudden and mysterious disappearance
Of the child, together with the fact, that upon
the death of the wemaas FIRST husband, the
property he possessed vas left to the two
chiIdres, aroused suspicion in the neighber-
hood, when al search was made fer the boy
He was found in the woods adjacent, with
both legs broken and his mouth sewed mp
being still aliyo, however, lie was properly
cared for, when he reported that his mother
and step father had been the perpetrators Of
the deed, and, in addition, that his sisters
skull hAd been broken BY them, which caus-
ed her death. The boys statement further
tended to Develop tho fact, that the girl was
| known before her death TO have had band
age around her head and upon the body be-
Ing examined, it was found. rs the boy had
stated that The skull was fractured The
parents we're arrested and imprisoned At

Mn. GALLAHER: We, the undersigned, having
been present at the examination of the pupils in
The School Of Mrs. PRELPs, were much Impress
ed by The evidences oftheir thorough training in.
the various branches OF Education taught in her
School. We have never seen any where, strong
or evidences Of the Teachers understanding, the
true point obe attained in stl2daca,ion to.wit:
The training the mind OF the pupil pot to receive
with omuivorous appetite the ideas and thoughts
ofothers, but training the mind in its own appro-
priate work, the act of thinking for itseltot ex.
etcising and developing lis own powers
"A lady, who has for several years thusdevoted
her time and health 10 The improvement and edn-
catiop Of our children, commands our bestwish,

Wewrfe among those who eonsideren II tt,s. 49,,

unsnuivocaiiy in reference TO the presentation OF
MIR Fillmore as the candidate Of Virginia for the
nexs presidency. Every delegate present. without
one 9oliiaFy exception Is in favor Of his reelection
ard wherever his name was mentioned, the APP
pleute was strong and universal. Many consider
ed thS resolution Of approval as presented BY the
comIbiuee equivalent TO nomination, but that az
the delegates principally appointed fer State
purposes they doubted their power to take positive
actiuA In regard to the Presidency.
We thought differently, apd siill think so. We.
SHOULD have spoken out plainly and unequivocally,
and ahefefore were in favor Of Mr.. Shackleford's
plain md emphatic resolution, which we append
