Ali relapsed again into their former silence.
But there was something in the terseness OF
the expression, A good education is some
thing which none but God can take from

THE INFLUENCE OF 4 REMARK.

A few years ago man in humble circum-
stances in life emigrated from Scotland TO
this country, and settled in one Of our west
ern States. He was a coarse and ignorant
man, but very energetic and entirely devoted
70 the acquisition Of property. He had been
very poor, and felt that wealth constituted
the greatest Of all earthly blessings. He had
never enjoyed any of the advantages OF edu.
cation, and was perfectly unconscious of the
value Of a cultivated mind. His wild and
rustic home was carved out Of the wilder
ness, where he was surrounded by those har-
dy pioneers who knew Of no employment but
toll. Rich haryesls began TO wave upon his
well-tilled and fertile acres. His barns we're
filled with plenty; cattle accumulated in his
pastures; bis plain but substantial dwelling
was provided with all homely comforts; he
became man Of wealth. He had an only
child, daughter, whom he loved with the
instructive love Of one who knew nothing Of
the refnements Of affection, but who feels
proud Of possessing child to whom he could
leave the fruits 81 his toilsome and success
full life.
One winters evening, as the sIeet was
drifting over the bleak plains, and the wind
Visiting around his windows, two strangers,
from different directions, sought a nights
hospitality beneath the roof of the rich old
farmer. One was young adyeDturer, pen
niless and almost friendless, seeking his for
tune in the boundless West. The other was
an intelligent middle. aged gentleman Of
wealth from the East, travelling on business
connected with an important speculation IN
which he was about to embark. The FIRE, of
large logs Of wood, blazed brightly ON the
hearth. The hardy old fasner, blessed with
the sigor which the health Of sixty years con-
fers, sat by his kitchen fireside smoking his
pipe, now and then exchanging word with
the strangers, neither Of whom seemed dis
posed to soeiability. The farmers wife and
his rustic daughter SAT in silence, the latter

THE INCIDENT.

Give US song y the soldiers cried,
The outer trenches guarding,
When the heated guns Of the camps allied
Grew weary Of bombarding.
The dark Redan, in silent scot,
Lay grim and threatening, under;
And the tawny mound Of the Malakoff
No longer belch'd lis thunder.
There was pause. The guardsman said;
We storm the forts tomorrow;
Sing while we may, auoiheI day
VIII bring enough Of sOrrown
They lsy along the battery's side,
Below the smoking cannon
Brave hearts from Severn and from Clyde,
And from the banks of shannon.
They sang ofloyessnd not Of fame;
Forgot was Brilain's glory
Each heart reealI'd different name,
Butall sang Annie Laurie"
Voice after voice caught up the song,
Until its tender passion
Rose like an anthem, rich and strong
Their battle eve confession.
Dear girl, her name he dared not speak,
Yet, as the song grew louder,
Something upon the soldiers cheek
Washd of the stains Of powder.
Beyond the darkening waters burn'd
The bloody sunsets embers,
While the Crimean valleys learn'd
How English love remembers.
And once again the fire of hell
RAND on the Russian quarters,
With scream Of shot and burst Of shell,
And believing Of the mortars.
And Irish NOla's eyes are dim
For singer dumb and CORY;
And English Mary mourns for him
Who sang Of" Annie Laurie"
All, soldiers! 10 your honor'd rest
Your truth and honor bearing:
The bravest are the tenderest-
The loving are The daring.

his father. His tastes are of low erder,
and whenever left TO his own dyices he is
fond of herding with parties utterly unworthy
of him. He is morbidly susceptible OF fiat
terry Of gross kind, and his amours are all
more or less Of a vulgar character. Shortly
before the death of the Prince Consort, It IS
we'll known that he visited Cambridge, but it
is not generally known that the conversations
with the Prince of Wales at Maddanly were
Of SO unsatisfactory nature as to give him
the most serious anxiety. On his return to
Windsor he brooded over what had passed
to that degree that his physician remonstrat-
ed and only short time before his death
he said to the Princess Alice that the an
swers he received from her brother were of a
haracter so low, 50 deprayed and vitiated,
that he feared all the pains he had bestowed
on his education would be found worse than
useless.
It appears there is some woman in town
who exercises great influence over him, and
once or twice the Prince stole away from
Maddanly unknown 10 General Bruce, his
tutor. to see her. Upon one occasion he
was iound out, but not until the train had
departed, when the telegram was dispatched
to Windsor, and the Price was somewhat
surprised to find at the station, waiting for
him, one of the royal carriages, with Sir
George Gray in attendance, to escort him TO
the paier families.
The Princess Royal, too, who married the
Crown Prince OF Prussia, has, il appears,
been united to man Of dissolute character.
Some time ago her Royal Highness was said
to have spralned her ankle, when the truth
was that her husband, in one Of his drunken
fits, had kicked her down some steps. The
Princess Alice, after her marriage, will live
AT Frogmorc. and as she is supposed 10 have
inherited the talents anil disposition Of her
father in great degree. She will be real
comfort TO the Queen. Bu il is in the or

GENERAL ORDER.
NAVY DEPARTMENT,

NAVY DEPARTMENT,
December 8, 1869.
At Naval General Court Martial, convened
at the Navy Yard, New York, November 10,
1869, Martin Conlin, a second-class boy In the
Navy, was tried on the following charge pre-
ferred against him by the Secretary of the
Navy:
CHARGE-"Theft.''
Specidcdtion-'I this: That on or about the
twentieth day Of October, in the year eighteen
States steamer Vixen, the said Martin Conlin
purloined quantity of money from the chest
or safe of the paymaster of the said vessel.'
The prisoner having pleaded guilty to this
charge and specification, sentence was passed
and subscribed by the Court as follows:
"After full and mature deliberation, the Court,
In consideration of the extreme youth Of the
prisoner, do sentence the said accused, Martin
Coniin, second-class boy, to one months coRtine-
mient on board the receiving ship North Carolina,
and that he shall not be permitted 10 visit tho
shore on liberty for six month.

~. G. VAN BRUNT, Commodore.
"W. d. PORTER, Commodore.
"E. W. BARTENDER, Commander.
GEO. l.. SELDES, Lieutenant.
"H. II. GOODMAN, Judge Advocate"
The sentence is confirmed, and will be car
rled into execution but the punishment award
ed is SO grossly inadequate to the character of
the offence committed, that the Department is
constrained to admonish the Court of its dis
regard of law, and to direct the attention of the
service generally to Article 81, section l, of the
"Act for the better government of the Navy of
the United States," approved July II, 1869,
which article is in the following Words
"It shall be the duty of a court-martial, In
all cases Of conviction, to adjudge punish
ment adequate to the character and nature of
the offence committed but the members Of a
court may recommend the person convicted as
deserving of clemency, and state on the record
the reasons for so doing"
The law has never intended to vest In courts
martial the power to pardon offences or to award
a nominal punishment, equivalent to pardon.
The power to pardon, remit, or mitigate Is ex-
pressly vested In the President of the United
States, or the officer authorized to convene the
court. The exercise of this power, hereafter,
by Naval General Court-Martial, will subject
the individual members thereof to the charge of
violating this General Order.
