Eternity is mora real than time: let
that suffice US; the earth is too small for
man.
Freedom is quite impossible when the
youth of country are devoid Of Ieve-
renee and modesty,
The old prose writer's wrote as if they
we're speaking 10 an audience; while,
among us prose is invariably written for
the eye alone. G7.ual
The greatest man will commit Slun-
dcrs in misfortune, because the want Of
proportion between his means and his
ends progressively increases, and hts
inward strength is exhausted in fruitless
efforts.
Manly worth, elevation of intellect
and enthusiasm, are 10 mo the noblesl
things on earth, superhuman, and the
best pledge of our higher destination.
heavenly origin and divine illumination
He who merely Grams himself with
the conceptions of other mems minds
clothed in forms foreign to his owr
nature, will never accomplish much
Quiet and Independent energetic indus
try can alone attain TO what is true
and bring forth what is really useful.
| would warn every one whose chic
shows bad disposition, to hold him in
while he is young, for there is not much
fear Of breaking his spirit. His innate
impudence will protect him from this
and feel by myself, that our faults can
no, be torn up with too much violence in
childhood, before they have taken too
deep root

Another Bank Defalcation.

W p Sacbett, receiving teller of the Mar
ket Bank, at the corner of Pearl and Beekman
sts, has proved defaulter to the amount Of
S25 600. He manged this by balancing his
books fraudulently The first information of
the fraud was obtained through the assistant
receiving teller, who observed the discrepancy
in Sacketts account, and last Sunday morning
informed the Secretary of the Bank. This
led to ar immediate investigation of the books,
which furnished sufficient grounds for Sack
ett's arrest. He was taken into custody by a
committee of the Bank on Monday last, but
has not yet been handed over to the officers of
Justice The directors of the bank are await

on Long Island, when an examination viii

will secure Il portion of the amount taken, and
that thep,ioss viii not exceed 81, 900. We
understand that, when taxed with his embez-
element, Sackett admitted it, and said that he

The San Antonia Ledger, of the 29tb, has
the following account of another Indian forey:
On Wednesday of last week ten horses were
stolen from Montel's mill Bandara city, by
Indians. Nine citizens started iii pursuit of
them, and after chase Of thirty miles, over
took them. They were Tonkaways. and FIVE
in number. They made some resistance, and
then disappeared among the mountains. In
the skirmIsh it is thought one Indian was
killed, and others perhaps wounded. All the
horses were recovered except one. whic was
stripped by an Indian, and then killed.

it seems likely that three L. S. soldiers have
been killed by Indians

Der. three soldiers left the camp Of Fort Davis
on a scout, AM to look for Indian trails, ta-
king not enough provisions for one day. On

lieutenant and 30 men started out in search
of the lost party. About four miles from the
camp they came on the trail of the soldiers,
and found that they were followed by about
80 Indians. Ii is supposed that tkey were
killed.
About twelve miles above Barellas Springs,
the trail of about ninety Indians was seen,
they having passed there on the morning of
