Marriage of Prince of wales.

A letter from Europe gives the follow
ing account Of the clandestine marriage Of
the Prince of Wales, several months ago,
to fair subject of the Emerald Isle:
The enthraller of the Princes heart and
recipient of his troth IS a beautiful young
Hibernian lady which he met and fell in
love with during the period of military
training at the Curcagh of Kildare IN Ire
land, where his Royal Highness had ap-
propriated to him, little removed from
the main line of tents which formed the
encampment, neat hut with a pretty lit
tie garden attached to it. Though he had
everything to make him comfortable there,
during the idle days and long evenings,
he sometimes cantered off to see some of
the leading gentry Of Kildare, whose de
mesnes fringe the great plain on which
the Prince was stationed. u one of these
houses in particular, and which was IN
habited by family of ancient and almost
historic standing, his horses head was Of
tenest turned; and his visits became SO
frequent that they ceased to be formal.
Nothing was suspected by the Princes
mentors, until one afternoon two young
ladies galloped over the green sward, pull
ing up in front of the Princes hut, and
the alaerity with which he came out to
meet them, and his particular manner to
the younger one. attracted the attention
of az officer in high rank who happened
at the moment to be calling on the Prince,
and who, being q veteran in love as well
as in war, fsncied he saw something more
than the mere politeness of a young Prince
to young lady. The visits were repeat
ed, and they were also seen riding about
the country.
However, to cut a long story short, in
certain little church not many miles from
Newbridge 1.-THE next town TO the Curraghl
there were, one morning, united in mat
rimony two young people, one OF whom
was the lady in question, and the other
the Heir Apparent to the throne OF Great
Britain, the only other parties present be-
ing, besides the clergyman, a brother ON
Ger Of the Prince and the brides brother
The lamented Prince Consort was made
aware of the fact just before quitting Ire
land, when they visited the lakes OF Xii
larney in the autumn.
BY the Royal Marriage Act need
scarcely say, such union would be unlaw-
full, but so wrapped up in this beautiful
Irish bride is the Prince, chat this Journey
of his to the East, which was determined
upon before the Prince Consort's death,
was suggested by the latter as a means OF
weaving him from "his foolish attach
ment," upon the principle of ''out of sight
out of mind" But nothing will do; the
young Princes "heart, untraveled, fondly
turns" towards certain old mansion on
the confines Of the Curragh, and which
holds "what is dearer to him than his fu-
ture CROWN" the fair objectof his thoughts

Rules for Home EDUCATION.

The following are worthy of being print
ell in letters of gold, and being placed in
a conspicuous position in every household;

your children always understand that you
mean exactly what you say.

you are sure you can give them what you
promise.
4. If YOU tell child to do anything,
show him how to do it, and see that it is
done.
5. Always punish your children for will
fully disobeying you, but never punish IN
anger.

I. Ifthey give way petulance and tenn
per. wait till they are calm, and then
gently reason with them on the impro-
prietv of their conduct.

just punishment of an outraged power
another part of the pirate navy has just
arrived at Wilmington, by express order
of the Confederate Cabinet, who have
their trunks all packed, and have stolen
all the money they could lay their honds
on, preparatory to thinking their chances
of escaping in the Nashville from the
doom that awaits them. Cheers.
The order to burn the cotton and to-
bacco, is under the mistaken idea that it
would involve England in the common
ruin. with themselves. Bear in mind,
gentlemen, that this cotton and tobacco
is solemnly pledged for the redemption of
the Confederate loan, and now the Con-
federate Conspirators have got all the mon
ey they can sponge out of their deceived
subjects, they solemnly order them to
destroy the securities on which the loan
was paid. Hear, hear And all this to
deceive England. or rather frighten her
by threat, the very last thing of all 9TH

this remarkable people to book.
You should know that the crops de-
stroyed and the cities burned are not by
their owners but by their miserable riff
raft, who have nothing to lose-a riff-raff,

represented the dead level of humanity,
standing ON the zero of civilization. or
wallowing in the mire of their own beast

wings of virtuous Imagination, or poised
on the pinions of patriotic intelligence.

The Spirit of '76.

At the battle of Pittsburg Landing there
was a woman who accompanied her hus-
band, and after the battle began to rage
on Sunday she was urged to leave the
field. She refused to do so, and, instead,
busted herself all day in carrying the
wounded back to place of safety as they
fell around her. While she was thus en-
gagged, another young man, who had also
her husband, was struck and
instantly killed by cannon ball, within
a few feet of her. The brave woman was
as may be imagined, greatly fatigued, and
even made i'll, by her exertions on the
field. Her name is Mrs. Werner, and she
is nov in Cincinnati, at the residence of
Mrs. Caldwell, 2l7 Vine street. Her hus-
band fell on the battle field, and she is
entirely alone and stranger in that city
More than this, while engaged in her hu-
name work, she tore all her undercloth-
ing into strips to tie up the wounds of the
fallen soldiers; and, consequently, she
came to that city destitute of even the
most indispensable articles of clothing.

Items of Agricultural Interest.

Corn fodder is valuable substitute for
grass, and, if drilled in, yields three or
four times the quantity per acre that grass
does.
Lime soils are injurious to sheep, and
by absorbing the oil in the wool they rem
der the fibre harsh and brittle.
A handful of bran meal, mixed occa-
sionally in the mess of COW, viii pay
tenfold its cost IN the richness of the
milk.
Give hogs occasionally a tablespoonful
of compound of three parts ashes and
one of salt, for each hog, mixedwith their
food, and it will kill kidney worms.
The first stage Of decomposition Of ma
nure is dry mold. This, if applied to
plants, will draw moisture from them, and
be positive injury.
Swamps want lime to decompose the
vegetable matter in them; dry knobs
want leached ashes, or clay, to hold wa
ter and plaster to furnish sulphuric acid
to dissolve the sand and render it solu-
bic.
Boiled oats, fried in fat, are recommend
ed for laying hens as the very best food
for the production Of eggs.

inhabited by a population of two hun

down, but we are prepared to expect the
worst

NORFOLK AND RICHMOND To BE DEFENDED
JEFF DAVE WILL NEVER SURRENDER.
Correspondence of the Norsoik Day Bookl
RICHMOND, April 27.-The news from
New Orleans, confirming the fall of that
city has been read here with sorrow, but
we are not dispirited, and do not doubt
our final success.
Norfolk and Richmond must be defend
ed at all hazards, and it is high time your
forces should be more than doubled
Your city and the Navy Yard are of equal
Importance with Richmond. Not only is
Norfolk and the Navy Yard of inestima-
bic value to us, but the county of Princess
Anne is indispensable in this crisis.
The delegation from South Carolina and
Georgia waited on the President before
Congress adjourned, and urged him TO
withdraw the troops from those States,
and at all hazards defend Richmond and
Norfolk, and l think they are coming;
Indeed, you would have thought so, il
you had seen, as l did, on Wednesday
last, the South Carolina regiment from
Sulliyans' Island thirteen hundred strong
pass Chester, twelve miles from Richmond,
and heard cheer after cheer resound
through the forest for ''0ld Virginia-she
must and shall be free :" | converscd
with South Carolina officer on the same
trip, who said that Savannah may be sur
rendered, and Charleston, too, but Rich
mond never. He said defend Richmond
and Norfolk, cost what it may.
You have noticed in the papers a short
account of President Davis speech, lately
made at Rockets, to the soldiers passing
to Yorktown. 1t was the best short
speech ever heard him make He said,
so far as he was concerned, he would con-
tinue this war for twenty years, rather
than one inch of Virginia soil should be
surrendered. So let us hear no more a.
bout surrendering Virginia.

WoRDs IN THEIR FIRST MEASING.-The
time was when every word was picture.
He who used a word first-almost any
word-had a clear and vivid presentation
to his mind of some object. and used that
object as a type and analogy to certain
ideas, and pictures images present to his
mind. Dean Trench furnishes many in
stances. Look at a word or two. DiLapi-
dated-dilapidated fortunes, a dilapidated
character, dilapidated house. Is there
not a vivid picture here, when we identi-
fy the word with the Latin delapidare-the
falling apart of stones-and so survey stone
after stone falling away, and leaving only
a place of ruin?
So the word hus5dnd-the stay and sup
port and binder together of the household
as old Tusser has said in his Point of
Husbandry"- II
''The name of husband-what is il TO say7
Ofwife and of household the band and the Stayl'
And the word ,oife is like it; it is only an
other form of the word weave and 'woof;'
and in it we have not only picture of
what was supposed to be principal char
acteristic of female industry, but the NOR
al idea, too, of our weaving, by her influ-
ence and affection, heart to heart and the
whole household into one. In the same
way, pity grows into piety.

OUR SLEEPING BROTHER.
BY MINNIE MITEooD.

Rest thee, "lov'd one." sweetly slumber
In thy quiet lOwly bed;
Slowly months have told their number.
Since twas whispered he is dead"
Yet, distinctly on our mem 'ries
Is inscribed that solemn scene,
When thy calm and tranquil spirit
Waded through Death sullen stream
Oil that last, long. thrilling pressure
OF thy cold and palsied hand,
Meaning more than word could utter.
As thou near'dst the other strand.
With that smile so like an angels.
Lighting up thy pallid face,
From our bleeding hearts these tokens
Stealthy time cannot erase.
With thy spirit, gentle brother.
Life's sweet charm has passed away,
Hopes which once were fOndly cherished,
Now are lifelcss as thy clay.

DEAR FRIEND We are vet under marching
orders This morning we exchanged all of our
canister shot for solid shot, which implies that
we have got some wall to batter down some

port and went down the river about eighty miles

we contiscate all property which belongs To rebels
in arms and whose sentiments are antagonistc TO
this Government, and that we have now in camp
not far from two thousand negroes, cohtrabands
of war, persons whom we use To get Tor rather
steaD cotton with, and of which cotton Uncle
Sam never gets pound. Our camp is always
thronged with cotton spectators who seem to be
very social and intimate with our officers Well
TO our trip down the river The crew consisted
of two companies of the 33d Illinois and one
section OF Capt. Schoheld's battery, twenty five
negroes, and "A man who made himself very con.
spicuous after were out of sight of the camp
and who afterwards proved to be the overseer of

this Government transport who, after we steamed
in sight of the rebel pickets, dsembarked, went
to the picket guard and in half an hour returned
when our boat resumed its journey and passed
without being fired upon. Extraordinary, wasn't
it In an hour We landed at plantation land

cotton After this was done, and the cotton Sc

General Fremont on Himself.

Fremont has been making an egotistica little
speech at ST. Louis, in which he describes him
self as an il-used man, and compares himself not
only to Marlborough and Louis Napoleon, but
also to the builders of the walls of Troy; TO the
Trojan whose spear against the treacherous
horse made the clang of arms resound;" to Lao.
coon, attacked by serpents, and to Ant@us, who
arose refreshed every time he touched the earth
during his struggle with Hercules. These elias
steal illusions show considerable reading; but
they are most unfortunately apropos of Fremont
fate. The work of the builders of Troy was all
in vain, and ended in ruins The Trojan only
invoked punishment upon himself by striking the
Grecian horse. LAGOON was killed by the ser
penis. Hercules, perceiying whence Anteus de-
rived his strength, held him aloit and strangled
him to death. Fremont, therefore, is not more
successful in his classical comparisons than in his
military campaigns. In attempting to euloglze
himself he metaphorically admits that he Is de-
ceased General. We gladly accept the admission.
