CITY HALL, Oct. s. 1852.

CITY HALL Oct. 8. 1852
desire to call the attention of the citizens
of Worcester, and particularly of the parents
of the children in our public schools, to the
subject Of physical exercises.
Nearly every city has its private gymnasium
and its skilful gymnasts. The friends of pop
ular education are very nearly unanimous in
the opinion that our system of public schools
should include physical as well as mental cul-
ture.
To effect this, many difficulties must be
overcome. To devise simple and ineXpen-
sive system of physical exercises, adapted to
the school room and to both sexes, requires
skill, patience, and perseverance.
My purpose in writing this note is to inform
the people of this city that this difficult task
has been accomplished by the very. popular
and worthy principal of the Sycamore street
Grammar School, Mr.. A. A. Hunt. To give
all who desire it an opportunity to witness
these exercises, Mr.. Hunt will give an exhi-
bition of his classes in Mechanics Hall some
afternoon next week. When the time is de-
finitely settled, notice will be given in the
daily papers.
To defray the necessary expenses tickets of
admission will be sold at the door at fire cents
each. j. ID. Z. JONES, Supt.

THE BATTLE OF TOURS.

In the first volume Of Godwin's "His.
tory of France" there is spirited 40.
count of this great contest, one Of the
worlds decisive battles, in which the
hosts Of tho East and West we're pittsd
against each other, and the crescent went
down in blood and dust.
ABIDE Rahman, laden with plunder
and satiated with blood, had bent his
steps towards the southwest, where he
concentrated his troops on the banks Of
the Charentt. Enriched aud victorious
as he was, there was still an object In
Gaul which provoked alike the cupidity
and the zeal Of his followers. This Was
the Basilica of Saint MARITIME of Tours,
the shrine Of the Gallo Christians, where
the richest treasure Of the church were
collected, and in which the profoundest
veneration of its members centcred. He
yearned for the pillage aud overthrow Of
this ilustrious sanctuary, and taking the
road from Poictiers, he encountered the
giant Of the north in the same valley of
the Vienues and Clan, where, nearly
three hundred years before, the Franks
and visigoths had disputed the supremacy
Of Gaul. There, on those autumn fields,
the Koran and the Bible--Islamism and
Christianity-Asia and Europe--stood
face to face ready to grspple in deadly
and decisive conflict. The shaggy war.
rior Of Karl could scarcely have known
that to them it was given to determine
whether the destinies Of civilization
should be controlled by Mahomined or by
Christ; bat none the less firmly as the
light aud turbaned cavalry of the Mos
lem wheeled in swift circles about the
plain, did they form themselves in the
s,iid wedges Of battle. For several days
tie hosts Of the East aud the West--so
iilfcrent in their physiognomics, their
arms, their costumes, their tactics, and
their aius--surveyed each other with
mingled feelings Of astonishment, hatred
and terror. Trivial skirlnshes from time
to time kept alive the ardor of both hosts,
till at length, at dawn on Saturday, the
eleventh of October the signal for gen.
eral onset was given. With one loud
shout Of Allah-Akbar (God is great the
Arab horsemen charged like tempest
upon their foe, bat tho deep columns Of
the Franks did not bend before the blast.
"Like wall of iron," says the chronic
Ter, "like rampant OF ice, the men Of
the north stood unmoved by the frightiul
shock" All day long the charges we're
renewed and as often as they were re-
newed, they broke in pieces on that
moveless zone Of pixies and swords
Blood flowed in stresms. The great
leaders animated their troops By prodi-
gious displays Of prowess the ringing
cry Of Abd-el- Rahman was heard incos.
sanity above the din Of battle, and the
ponderous hatchet Of Karl fell necessarily
upon the heads OF his enemies like the
hammer Of Thor.
The issue Of this stupcndous conflict
was doubtful until the tenth hour Of the
day (about four o'clock,) when division
of Basques and Aquiisins. led BY the
Duke Of Eudo, fell secretly upon the
camp Of the Arabs and massscrcd the
guards. The tumult and cries Of die

It's Public Lands, Agriculture, Re-
sources, Military and Naval PO-
sitiOn.

In our previous notes upon the Sagi
nav Valley, we have confined ourselves
chiefly to its history and to its lumber
and salt interests. But it is not upon
these alone that it rests its claims to pub
lie attention. There is perhaps no part
of Michigan where there is less real
waste land than in the Saginaw. Wher.
ever it is cleared and properly cultivated,
it proves to be of unsurpassed richness
and fertility, and the crops raised are i'm
mense. And there is perhaps no district
in the State that will better reward the
settler for the toll and labor of clearing q
farm than that along the course of the
Saginawand its tributaries. The immense
oak aud pine timber find a ready market,
and the less valuable varieties, when cut
up for fuel, are needed by the salt manu-
facturers, who pay remunerating prices.
The demand for this purpose alone is
already very large, and must increase
until the country is stripped of its forests.
In 1850, the whole population Of Sag
NAV county was 2,609. In 1860, it was
1888. The territory of country which
in 1856 embraced Midland, Tuscola, Bay
and Saginaw counties, contained a popu-
lation Of less than 5000. It numbered
in 1860, 81 ,595, and now probably con-
tsins $4,000. About one-third of the
population are engaged directly and indi-
rectly in the lumber and salt business, the
residue in agriculture. We have before
us some valuable statistics concerning
the sale of public lands at the United
States Land Office at Eas: Saginaw, fur.
nished US by John F. Drugs, Esq, Reg
ister, which, with some facts connected
with the sales, furnished from other
sources, may interest some who read
these notes.
Since the 1st of January, 1861, to
December 3lst of the same year, inclu-
sive. the following sales were made. viz
