very vagne and unsatisfactory, though high
ly important. 1t is stated that Napoleon had
telegraphed the Empress on the evening of
the Oath, that a great battle had been fought
and a great victory achieved by the allied
forces. That the battle lasted from 4 in the
morning till s in the evening, and that the
whole Austrian army was formed in battle
array, extending five leagues. He also
states that the French took many flags, can
non and prisoners.
A Vienna dispatch says a battle was pro-
crossing, but gives no details. Previous ac-
counts state that the Austrian force on the
Mincis numbered $50, 600 men.
The entire French force has passed Monte
Chiaro. A reconnaissance was said ohave
been pushed as far as Cato.
The Piedmontese nave advanced towards
Peschiera- Napoleon had demanded permits
sion to march 10000 troops through Hano-

basis proposed for mediation by Prussia
would not be acceptable to France, there

mored that Prussia had threatened to as

Charity.

Faith, Hope, Charity"-these three car
dinal principles are set down by the Apostle
Paul as the great prominent characteristics
of Christian-and he adds, 1.-The greatest OF
these is charity 1t is the spirit of love, of
forbearance, of placing the most favorable
and kindly construction upon the conduct OF
others, anu Oh u~suenevIng wS~-~-sus aocu-
sations against a brother until their truth is
fully established. If this noble attribute was
more faithfully exercised, many a lurking
distrust and uncharitable impression would
cease to find a Judgment in the mind of men
against one another, and many an innocent
man would be saved the anguish of spirit
which the tongue of SANDER has inflicted.
1t is not so much the vile venom which is
sues from the slanderer's lips that l~acerates
the heart and wounds the spirit of his vic
tim; but to find that the tale of detraction
has been woven with such plausibility as to
have caused credibility and a readiness to be
lieve, or at least to cause distrust and doubt
on the part of those in whose good opinion
he had believed his fair name so entrenchec
as to be entirely secure from the assaults o
detraction-this it is that wounds the limo
cent heart, and gives the slanderer opportu
nifty to gloat over his work of infamy.
And how often is this lone. IN enem
sees, or processes to see something unusus
about another. The ~malignity of his hear
at once suggests something di~sreputable, an
he whispers it abroad, putting 'this and tia
together" until he has circulated a plausibl
story to the deep injury of one who could e1
plain away all his suspicious circumstances,
to the perfect satisfaction of even his bitteres
enemy. But he is not aware of the circul
ton of the subtle poison until his good nan
has suffered, perhaps, in the minds of man
whom he may never see to disabuse; ar
thus he is permanently injured.
If there was more of that charity practise
among men which Paul so highly reco1
mended to the early Christians, the wor
would be the better of it, and the vice of detra
ton receive a rebuke that would be benefci
to INSCRIPTIONS defamers.

Fashionable Women.

Fashion kills more women than toll and
sorrow. Obedience to fashion is q greater
transgression of the laws of woman's nature,
a greater injury to her physical and mental
constitution, than the hardships of poverty
and neglect. The slave-woman at her tasks
will live and grow old, and see two or three
generations Of her mistresses fade and pass
away. The w~asherwoman, with scarce a raw
Of hope to cheer her in her tolls, will live to
see heIfashionable sisters die around her.
The kitchen.maid is hearty and strong, when
her lady has to be nursed like q sick baby.
II is q sad truth that fashion.pampered wo-
men are almost worthless for all the good ends
Of human life. They have but little force of
character; they have still less power of mor-
al will, and quite as little physical energy.
They live for no great purpose in life; they
accomplish no worthy ends. They are only
doll forms in the hands of milliners and SER
wants, to be dressed and fed to order. They
dress no body; they feed nobody they in
struct nobody; they bless nobody, and save
nobody. They write no books; they set no
rich examples Of virtue and womanly life. II
they rear children, servants and nurses do
oil. And when reared, what are they? What
do they ever amount to, but weaker scions of
the old stock? Who ever heard Of a fashion
able woman's child exhibiting any virtue,
and power Of mind for which it became emf
nentr Read the biographies Of great and
good men and women. Not one of them had
a fashionable mother. They nearly all
sprung from strong.minded women, who had
about rs little to do with fashion as with the
changing clouds.

Mr.. Buchanan and Temperance.

1t is known to our readers that President
Buchanan attended the recent Commencement
exercises of our State University at Chapel
Hill. While there he made two or three brief
speeches to the students, from one of which
we extract the following:
The great curse of our country-that curse
which has involved so many of the most prom
ising young men of the land in ruin, which
has made mothers miserable, and which has
made fathers feel disgraced by the spectacle
of their own offspring-is the crime of drunk
enness, more deadly by far than the pesti-
lence, than the yellow fever, than the plague,
and than all other ealamities that have visited
man. We bring upon ourselves a greater ca
lamity than heaven has brought upon us, in
any form or shape of misery. Everywhere
you see the wrecks of this dreadful vice scat
tered over the land, in the destruction of the
finest prospects that ever were presented by
the youth of any country. | therefore wish,
with all my heart, to repeat whatever has
been best said by the gentleman CDR. Hooper,
who addressed you this evening, and ask ofyou
all to beware of that fatal vice which de-
grades man to the level of the brute and dis
graces him in the eyes of the whole world
wish you, and all the other young men who
have o themselves so much credit here
to-day, health, prosperity and long life. cloud
applause.)
Now, we are very glad the President said
this much and his advice is good so far as il
goes, but re think the worthy President die
not hit the nail in the right place. If we
know anything about this matter, drunken
ness is not the great curse of the country i
is but the fruit of that great curse; the curse
itself is moderate drinking. That habi
which is formed and fastened by the example
(Which is a thousand times more powerful
than words,D of Presidents, and Senators, AM
Congressman, and men in every position O
influence in our beloved country. Who eve
knew a young man to desire to drink by rea
son of the example of a drunkard? VIII
does not know of multitudes that have bee
ruined for time and eternity, by the unresil
ted temptation of the proffered wine cuI
amidst the social circle, or in the presence
the educated and influential, Our great me
discourse eloquently upon the evils of DRUM
enness, and warn young men to beware
the steps of the drunkard-but what are the
doing by their example to lead their fello'
men away from the habit that ends in DRUM
enness? God forbid that we should sa
aught against these oft repeated warning
no no! But we want our Statesmen to
further, we a their example on the side
entire abstinence. This, and this alone,
the only safe ground to occupy. Let tn
wine cup be banished from the social circl
let the honorable men cry out against it an
drive it from all respectable society, and thel
will then be no need of warning our your
men against the curse of drunkenness. A
tons speak louder than words.

the several studies. We would advise all
persons who wish to enjoy themselves this
summer, to go to Beaufort. On Monday at
ternoon we left Beaufort with many regrets,
in the steamer " johnson" for Carolina City.
We spent the night at Carolina City" The
hotel there is a very fine one, kept by Messrs.
PARROT & Newborn, andthey have made am
pie preparation for the accommodation OF a
large number of visitors during the present
season, and we hope they will be literally
patronized. On Tuesday morning we started
homewards and at 8 o'clock, P. NJ, landed
in Raleigh, after one of the most pleasant
trips | have ever taken. We are very much
indebted to Mr.. HAZEL, Conductor on the N.
G. R. R., Mr.. Hancock, Conductor on the A.
& N. G. R. r., also to the Baggage Agent on
that road for their kind attentions during our
journey, and to Mr.. S. d. Pool, Editor OF the
Beaufort Journal, and to Mr.. Newborn OF the
Carolina City Hotel, for numerous acts o
kindness extended to our party. There arr
many other things we would like to mention
in this article, but we have already made ]
too long. Truly yours, e.
