"Oh! What arbad Report"

A YOUNG man has fallen Not amid the
glories of the battle field, or under the was
ting hand of disease. Such falls produce sor-
row, but never bring the burning blush of
shame. He has yielded to the tempting wiles
of the Rum fend, and has fallen from that
high estate which virtue had given him.
What a fall was thai.
In an evil hour he sought the companion
ship of the wicked and vicious. He learned
to mingle Familiarity in their obscene and I'M
hallowed revels-he tasted the winecup, and
the bright visions which hope had created
were destroyed. With a rude hand he broke
the golden cords which bound him to friend
ship and happiness, and pushed madly along
the road which takes hold on hell.
Is that young man your friend? Spread
not the report, as if you joyed in proclaiming
his disgrace. Run, fly to him, and strive
with kind words to win him from his fatal
course. Lift him from the polluting mires
into which he has fallen, point him to th'
bright path of virtue and peace whisper il
his ear sweet promises of forgiveness, and biz
him hope again. Pass not on the other sid
with Levite Indifference, nor raise the boast
full cry of the Pharisee, :" | I'm not as tho
art" You may encounter the tempter in a
unprepared moment, and fall before his viii
arts. 1t is your duty, it should be your plea
ure, to lift your fellow mortal from the pit
despair, and direct his erring footsteps in tt
pathway of virtue and hope. Do not, by
rigid code of morality, pass upon him a t.
hasty sentence of Condemnation. Strive wit
him long and patiently, remembering that
is a sight at which angels gaze with inten.
delight, to see the p~rodigal returning from h
ways and bowling in humble contrition befo
the Throne Of Heaven.
Spirit of the age. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1849-1865, 1856-09-10
The long agony over.

The intelligence that the Army Appropri-
alton bill has passed both Houses of Con-
gress, without the abolition p~roviso, will
be received with sincere pleasure by all low
ers Of the constitution and the Union through
out the country every where. Had the rev.
dictionary factionists succeeded, our Govern
ment would have received a Shock from
which it might never have recovered.
On the Both, in the oenate, Mr.. Critten-
denis bill to alter and amend the Kansas
Nebraska act, was laid on the table, yeas %,
nays IL. A message was then received from
the House informing the Senate of the pas
sage of the army bill. On motion of Mr..
Hunter, the Senate struck out the House
proviso, yeas 26, nays 7. The bill was then
passed. Soon after, a message was received
in the House from the Senate, informing
that the Senate had struck out the proviso
The House, under the operation of the pre-
vious question, concurred, yeas 101, nays 90.
The two Houses then adjourned SIM die.
We see by the yeas and nays that all the
members from North Carolina were present
except Messrs. r. 7. Paine, (who was de
tanned by ~siekness,) and E. G. Reade and
of course all voted against the proviso, and
in favor of the passage of the bill without it

Education of Oaughters.

When a young lady is seventeen years of
age, if she enjoys good health, she is begin
ming to nave that vigor of mind which en-
ables her to make intellectual acquisitions.
Two OF three years then devoted energetical-
~ to study, will store her mind with treas
ures more valuable to her than gold. She
will be thus able to command a husbands
respect and retain bis love. Her children
will feel that they have indeed a mother.
Her home will be one worthy the name,
where a mothers accomplished mind and a
glowing heart will diffuse their heavenly in
fuence. An angel might covet the mission
which is assigned to a mother. Your child
who thinks Of finishing her education at
sixteen, may soon have entrusted to her
keeping a son, in whose soul may glow the
energies of Milton, or of Newton, or of Wash
ington. God did not make her TO play a
waltz or dance a polka. She is created a
little lower than the angels. When tho
waning stars expire, she is still to go career
ing on in Immortality, till she reaches that
happiness-in the presence of God. Appre-
ciate the exaltation of her nature, her duties
and her destiny. Let not the noble intellect,
where dwells her Immortality, be unheeded.
The years of youth are soon gone. The mo-
ments in which a young lady can attract at
%tention by a few superficial accomplishments,
are as transient as the morning dew. But
there are lifelong cares and responsibilities
which will weigh upon her. And when she
has passed through her three score years
and ten, and, venerable in age, she sits by
the fire side with her children and grand
children around her, accomplished scholars
and honorable statesmen may be among
their number, who shall assemble in her
chamber of death with emotions of love and
reverence.

a Romantic Tale.

A young nobleman Of the e|nvirons of Mos
COW fell desperately in love with a young
gypsy. He wanted to marry her despite the
representations of his father, who managed
to send his son from nome for some time, and
during his absence he took possession Of the
young girl, and married her to his coaehman,
to whom he gave his freedom and some mon
ey. After the wedding night passed away,
she ran away, gained the country, and dis
appeared from all eyes except those of her
lover, who pretended to have forgotten her,
and entered the guards. For five years she
remained concealed in q hut, and nobody
knew that her lover visited her every night
he oven married to avert suspicion. But at
last his legitimate wife, tormented by the
mysterious life led by her husband, contrived
to discover the secret, and then went to the
emperor she threw herself at his feet, and
craved vengeance on the p%erfdious husband.
The poor gypsy girl was seized and conf
ned in a hospital, and her three children dis
appeared, and she never heard one word OF
them again. For four years she suffered an
guish of every kind, and every sort of humil
iation without a complaint, giving an exam.
pie of the most patient and gentle resignation
in the house where she was confined. The
lover was immediately sent off to the army
of the Caucasus, where he is still. No cor
