ANOTHER GREAT BATTLE
GENERAL eA. * s., ,!Enc coy I s1oh:wall

HEADoUARrER's OF ARMY, 6 M1'Es)
Beyond Culpepper, Va, Aug. III.
A battle was fought yesterday between
! Banks aud Stonewall Jackson.
The rebels under Jackson and Ewell
had crossed the Rapidan in force, -and
their advance guard, 5000 strong, was
attacked by Banks yesterday afternoon,
about six miles south Of Culp.pper Court
House.
The fight was almost wholly with .rt;l.
lery at first, but the infantry became en-.
gagged about 6 o'clock and a determined
and most bloody contest ensued. Banks
right wing under Gen,ral Williams suf:
tered severely.
The rebel position was in the woods
while the troops which attacked them
we're obliged to cross open ground. 1t
Was noe until about s o'clock that it BE-
came evident that the rebels were attack
ing iu force Previous to that, there had
been rather desultory eannonading Tie
whole rebel force suddenly attacked in
overwhelming numbers at all points and
nearly all their regiments had full ranks
A. half past seven o'clock, Gen. Pope
arrived on the field FROM Culpcpper, ac-
conpanied by Mcdowell and part Of Nc
DowclIs corps. The battle was substau-
TALLY over and Banks holding the sa,ue
grou"d he occupied at the beginning.
After the arrival Of Gen. Pope, there
was an artillery contest that lasted at H..
| tervals till near twelve o'clocf. The
night Was unusually clear and moon full.
The rebels made u dash aud came neal
capturing Gen. Pope aud Gen. Banks, bu,
these officers with their stats escaped.
Banks was on the Geld through the &C
| ton, aud constantly under fire Lis
handling Of his troops aud personal gal
lantry are highly praised by his officers
The bravery and good conduct Of troops
were conspicuous during large por.io.
Of the fight
Gen. Banks is r'ther severely hurt b,
an accident. y cavalry trooper RAJ,
against him: striking him heavily on the
side.
Losses ore very heavy on both sides
not less than 2,0O0 Or 5000 killed, wound
ed and missing on each side Some pttis
oners are taken by both. Jackson anu
Ewell were both present in battle. Rein
o,cements under Gen. A. p. Hill t,

St. Cloud High School.

For over five years We have been in St.
Cloud waiting for some one to establish a
good school. Every effort. which held
cut hope, We have aided to the best Of
our ability, and the prospect Of school
has continued to grow small and bcauti-
fully less. We have felt that St. Cloud
possesses all the necessary material to make
6rst class High School; and believe these
oily require to be combined. AS the
time is approaching when we must send
our only child from home or have school,
We have resolved to attempt this needed
combination.
Teaching was our profession before ed.
i ing and We have high testimonials OF
SUCCESS in it. We can start school With
much less outlay than any one else, as
wa Gao spare four rooms, three Of them,
large, and all beautifully lighted. tits IN
central position, aud so near the Everett
School House, that teachers and pupils
Can pass back and forth without inconve-
s.iencs.
We shall therefore open school, in
the Evefett School House, on next Mon.
day. (thc l8th) at nine o'clock. Of this
School We shall be Principal; and. As the
Primary Department is the principle de.
partment we shall teach that in person.
Our knowledge Of Arithmetic is sadly
susted, and Mrs. Farwell, late Mrs. Allen,
the most successful teacher in town, has
generously volunteered her services to at.
teaa to the advanced classes. The higher
branches Of English and Mathematics
with Latin and Greek, will be taught by
Rev. Phillips, who is we'll known as fiae
classical scholar ; and, as teacher, is
highly priced and much loved by those
who have attended his private classes.
We hope to get DR.. Hunter to teach vocal
music, and have sent to New York for q
piano, which We expect in two weeks.
Miss Mitchell will take charge Of that
department, for the present. and give les.
sons in French, German and Grecian paint.
ing.
The School term will consist Of twelve
weeks, and for common English branches
the tuition will be $500, higher branches
of English and Mathematics, Scots, each,
or full English course $500, Latin, Greek,
French and German, each $3.50 Drawing
and Water. coloring, each $3.50. Grecian
painting $500.
These terms appear very low, but We
believe school can be made selfsupport-
ing at them.
Here, -four is one and half cents per
pound. wood one dollar and half per cord ;
and, it is unjust to ask such tuition fees
IS are common H. places where the ono is
five cents and The other eight or ten dol.
lxrd
Good board can be had, in families for
1925 or $50 per week, and rooms can be
had in which pupils can board themselves
much cheaper. From farmers, We will take
produce, as VIC. do for the paper, and wool
and anything We can use or dispose off,
To those living in this School District We
hope the school will be free for the first
term, for common, school branches
There is fund to sustain school three
months, .nd We shall call upon the Direct

b8~THE Passover Jewish festi-
val of the Passover will commence ON the
evening of the l4th inst. During the con.
tinuance of the feast the faithful eat of the
unleavened bread, and on the two first and
last days abstain from labor. In prepar.
ing for this, the most important religious
festival in the Mosaic calander, a large
quantity of unleavened be cad is manufac-
tured and distributed throughout the
United States, some OF it being shipped
even to the West Indies and other foreign
ports, where there are no facilities for
baking it in the quantity required. Flour
of the finest quality is used. 1t is mixed
with water only, forming thick paste,
which is fattened out and submitted in an
oven to temperature of 212 deg. F. until
thoroughly. dried, which forms it into a
dense and more or less hard cake, about
the size of dinner plate. From the
small moisture it contains, it may be kept
long while without moulding or becom-
ing sour. All the Biblical regulations in
relation to the removal of leavened bread
from the houses. are still, we believe,
closely adhered to. though some of the
stricter laws of usage in relation to the
connection of Gentiles with religious rere.
monies and preparations are falling into
disuse.
