SCHOOL GOVERNMENT.

As school is community on small
scale it must necessarily have like laws and
regulations, with their penalties attached,
which tend to protect the innocent and pun
'sh the guilty. 1t is undoubtedly the
teachers Peroga'ise to act as legislative,
judicial, and executive, in his small CON-
munity. 1t is q well known fact with
teachers Of experience, that in communities
where parents have taken some pains TO
raise their children, with view Of making
useful men and woman, there is 40 ncces-
sity OF resortins to harsh means Of gov
erning / am Of the opinion that where
there is any whipping to be done, the pa
rent should be required to administer the
rod; and if he refuses to do it, then the
child should leave school and enter that
school whose teacher is experienced. If
teachers were perfectly qualified to dis
charge their whole duty, there would be
little or no necessity to resort to corporeal
punishment. Let every thing in the school
room be made attractive, and strive to cui
tiyate an inquirins mind in each pupil. It
is said san empty head is the DEVILS
Workshop" Find plenty OF instructive
work for pupil and he vii! not have time

fail in government. The sub-directt

with such assistance, he failed, they should
both be turned off. Manners and polite
ness used TO be taught, to certain extent
in our common schools, but "young amer

initiation to make bow, or to say "s;r'

THE LATEST WAR NEWS.

We learn from Washington that the line Of
tte Alexandria aud LOudOn Railroad is dotted
with Rebel camps. At Leesburgh there are
1900 infantry, and G cannon; at point five or
SIX miles below are 5000 infantry and can
nop; still further on, four miles beyond, are
$500 infantry; in oil LOudon County are 2,OoO
cavalry; the Potomac, however, remains TOO
high to be forded, even By cavalry TO whose
saddles tho water cOmes. 1t appears tnat the
withdrawal of the Rebels from Fairfax Court
House was a regular stampedej two scouting
parties Of the enemy mistook each other for Ma
iona troops, attacked each other, sharply fought
and rapidly fled after a few rounds, carrying
tbe news that Mcclellan and al his army were
Ia pursuit. The consequence Of this intelligence
was hasty flight Of the Rebels, who dropped
fheir sick along the road.
From Missouri We learn that from 5000 to
10000 of McCulloch's army have lcft Springfield
<r the north. The National Army will cut
oil the retreat Of this body toward Arkansas
when they find it desirable to move thitherward
again. The steamer Samuel Orr, mail packet,
was seized at Paducsh on Thursday by the
Rebels. and sent up Tennessee River. Her off.
cers and crew escaped in skifs. The value of
her cargo was 100000. JEFF. Davis, according
TO reports from the South, ia 10 send aid to
Missouri.
1t is reported at the south-the rumOr Orig-
eating at RichmOnd-that the English Govern
inert has sent instructions to Admiral Milne to
protect British vessels in their entrance to and
egress from Southern ports.
Letters from Curacao, concerning the pirate
Sumter state that this craft was refused ADMIT
tsnce to the port of CieDfuegos, and was CON-
PEELED to anchor below the fort, at the entrance.
Her six prizes, however, went inside. TIE
Sumter shortly after was taken with an appre-
benIon that o national war vessel was in pur-
suit of her; she accordingly retired precpitately,
leaving her prizes in the haibOr. She subse-
9uently captured two American vessels. loaded
with provisions. On the I'd inst, she was 10

The Governor Of Curacao had said that, if the
pirate desired again b enter that harbor, it
would not be allowed to do so. This decision
