From The N. +. Argas.
sTIRSTITUTF FOR COFFET

The tax bill, now before Congress, naturally
suggests 10 every one the idea Of economy. The
article OF coffee has become almost one of the
necessaries OF life, the tax uron which (like all
the articles taxed, comes out of the consumerl
has so enhanced it's price that many families are,
from necessity, forced to relinquish it's use en-
tirely and resort to some substitute of domestic
invention
Allow me to suggest, for the benefit of your
numerous readers an article, the use of which
will completely supply the place Of the imported
article, and be far more conductive to health and
strength. The common "OIange Carrot" usual
ly grown in any garden, affords the cheapest and
most perfect substitute yet found. Prepare it
as follows: After being well washed slice the
carrots lengthwise; cut the slices crosswse, into
pieces a little larger than the grains of ordinary
coffee dry thoroughly IN an oven, or under a
hot stove scorch to burn in the same manner a.
you would coffee, and pound or grind for use
teacup full of the pulverized roots will make a
quart OF the finest beverage in The world. If
you wish to improve it's favor, add q teaspoon
full Of "od Java" to the above. Good cream
adds to its flavor, as it does to everything else
] made this suggestion for the benefit Of the
public, hoping that every person who shall hap
pen to see this ''receipe" will be induced to give
il trial.
The editorial fraternity will add much to the
economy of the public by giving the above sug-
gestions a wide circulation.
The writer of this article has drank II for
long time land the author Of it much longer), and
has grown fat and hearty on the known aud ao-
knoWledged virtues Of the orange-carrot coffee

THE SECOND APPEARANCE OF THE
MRRRIMAC.

The rebel Battery, Merrimao, made her second
appearanoe at Fortress Modroe on Friday.
After showing herself beyond sewalrs Poiut, she
turned towards James river, followed by six other
gunhoats, which had come around the point in
ner company. OF the latter the jamestown and
Yorktown were recogniz ID. Among the others
we're supposed TO be the Raleigh and Teaser
Arriving at a point about half way between Sew
ars Point ond Newport News Point, and near
the nlace where the French war vessels Gassendi
and Catinet, and the English steamer Rinaldo,
had placed themselves early in the morning, the
whole feet came to stop, while the jamestown,
followed at some distance by the Yorktown aud
a small tug, continued ou her course. The ILL
tention Of the jamestown was not at first per-
ceived but as she came around, leaving New
port News on htr left, it was seen that her OBJ
ect was to c,pture two brigs and schooner
which were anchored near the shore about two
miles from the point.
This was done without the slightest difficulty,
and the assistance of the small tug beiug rer-
dered, the three prizes were taken of under the
rebel flag. The whole affair was concluded in
less than half an hour, aud the jamestown hav-
ing fejoned the feet, was ordered to tow the
pr ze to Craney Island. Taking one brig in TOW
and the others alongside, she moved slowly away
Slightly alarmed at the bold dash, quite mum
| ber of schooRers in the upper harbor ayailet
l
of danger
The names of the two brigs captured are th
Sabbao, of Providence, r. l., and the Marcus
of Stockton, Me. The former was loaded will
hay on private account, and the latter was char
tered by the government, but had been unloaded
The name of the schooner has not been ascer
tanned. The captains of the two brgs escaped
to the shore in a small boat, with four of th
crew Of the Marcus Two we're left on boar
the Sabbao, who made no Efforts to lower boa
to escape. They were all taken prisoners, to
gether with the crew Of the schooner. 1t is sal
that the captured vessels were ordered last nigh
to move down the harbor for safety.
The schooner Harmony, used as a water boa
by Mr.. Noyes, government contractor, for SUP
plying water to the feet happened to be alout
side one Of the French men of war at the tim
the Virginia made her appearance, and wa
taken under the protection Of the French fai
thus escaping capture. Mr.. Noyes has preYou
ly lost, by capture, two schooners which wei
employed as water boats by him.
The jamestown returned TO CTaney Island
o'clock. Not shot was fired until o'clocl
when the Merrimac fired three shots in the
rection Of Hampton Greek. The Naugatuck al
Octorara, which had been stationed In that '
cinity, replied with number of shots, all
which fell near the rebel fleet The whole flee
led the Mprrimac, then returned to Elitabe
river, The name Of the schooner captured v

THE OLD FLAG OVER THE GRAVE or JAcr-
soN.--It will crafty many to learn that the Stars
and Stripes again aoat over the tomb Of the old
hero who 10 emphatioally declared that 1.-THE
Union must aud shall be preserved" An army
correspondent of the indianapolis Journal writes
from Camp Andrew jackson, March 18th, as
follows
yesterday General Nelson made reconnois
sance in force towards Lebanon. He took with
him the Second Cavalry, three batteries Of ar.
tillery and Ave regiments of infantry. Our re-
giment led the advance. Company being The
advance guard We were obliged to leave two
batteries about four miles from camp, in couoe
quence of the bridges being too rickety to rick
their going over in safety. We went as far Is
the Hermitage, the former residence Of An.
drew jackson. As we approached the sacred
spot the bnnd of the Thirty. sixth Indiana
played n national air. General Nelson halted
the column, and tho Stars and Stripes we're
planted over the tomb Of jackson, and Harris
Battery fired salute Of sixteen guns. To com,
ment on the ceremonies Of the occasion would be
useless, as all who know the history Of the Hero
of New Orleans can readily imagine the feelings
Of the troops while standing before the tomb o
Jackson, General Nelson aud staff were invited
into the mansion, and remained some time"

DESCRIPTION OF ooRINrH
JOHN W. ANDREWS,
Col. lst X. Del Vol.

Cnrinth is at the intersection Of the Mobile and
Ohio md Memphis aud Charleston railways, in
Tishomingo county (AIississppi) ninety-three
miles from Memphis, forty miles from Grand
Junction, one hundred and ffty-fve miles from
Columbus, Kentucky, ffty-eight miles from
jackson, Tenn, eighty miles from Decatur, Ala
bama, and about twenty miles in direct line
from Savannah, Tennessee. From Pittsburg,
where the main body of our army was lately en-
camped, the distance TO Corinth is about eigh-
teen miles, by good turnpike road.
Corinth is very important sIrategical point
It is situated in hilly, sem-mountainous coun-
try, a branch of the Appalachian range, which
diverges from the Allegheny mountains, and
forms the mountains and goll-beariug regions Of
Georgia and Alabama. This village Is nearly
surrounded by an irregular circle of hills, rising
on the north, about four miles distant, with the
State line between Tennessee and Mississippi
crossing their summit The Mobile and Ohio
railway crosses this ridge through cut seventy,
five feet in depth. Similar cuts, Of lesser depth,
penetrate the bills on the east west, and south,
where the railways enter. Beyond these hills,
in the direction Of Pittsburg and Savannah, the

AFFECTION sometimes meet with men
who seem to think that any indulgence Of aiisc
tionate feeling is weakness. They will return
from journey aud greet their families with &
distant dignity, and move among their children
with the cold and lofty splendor of an iceberg
surrounded with it's broken fragments. There
is hardly q more unnatural sight on earth than
one of these families without heart. A father
had better ertinguish his boys eyes than to take
away his heart. Who that has experienced the
joys of friendship and values sympathy and ahec
tion, would not rather lose all that is beautiful
in natures scenery than be robbed of the hidden
treasure OF his heartY Who would not rather
follow his child to the grave than to entomb hI
parental affection? Cherish then, your hearts
best affections. Indulge in the warm and gush-
ing emotions Of fraternal love. Think il not
weariness. Teach your children to love, to love
the rose, the robin; to love their parents, the
God. Let it be the studied object of their do
mestic culture to give them warm hearts, arden
affections. Bind your whole family together b!
these strong cords. You cannot make them too
strong.
