Union County Teachers Institute.


Ii is the earnest desire of the Executive
Committee, to have every teacher in Union
county present, if possible, at the first
session Of the Institute, which will be
held in Lewisburg, commencing Wcdnes-
div morning, the 2Sih of Jan. 1868, to
continue in session three days. Let all
make their arrangements to remain to the
close of the Institute.
Ia preparing reports, essays, &c, on the
subjects assigned, let them be AS much
condensed as possible, and yet as cOmpre-
hensive as the subject will ALLOW. The
principle part Of the work will devoIve
upon the teachers themselves. The most
experienced will be called on to conduct
the different exercises, yet all will have an
opportunity to participate in them.
The citizens of Lewisburg, We are told,
are making arrangements to give graiui-
tous entertainment to the members of the
Institute. Their intelligence and interest
in the cause of education will guarantee
TO the teachers a welcome reception.
At Northumberland, over one hundred,
of the hundred and twenty teachers of the
attended their county Institute
Almost every house in the town was open
for the reception of teachers and friends
of education. The sessions were we'll at.

interest in the deliberation of the Institute.
Let all concerned try to make our lnsti-
tu;e equally interesting aud praiseworthy.

20th ult., and without incident worthy Of
landing, on the south shore Of tue lazae
river twelve miles above its mouth, where
we embarked, Naxt day, with two days
rati0us and sixty rounds of ammunition,
We started in high spirits, couf!eat that
Nicksburg would soon be numbered
with our conquered. Our brigade marched
about five miles iu q southeast direction,
and tivouackcd on the main road 10 Nlcks-
burg, and about one and half miles from
the Rebel breastworks, while Gen. Smith,
with the ID bri igalc, advanced and drove
10 the pickcts, planted the batteries and,
at o'clock, opened on the Rebels, keep,
iug up steady fire iii dark.
During the night the batteries were
moved forward within good range Of the
breastworks, aud about two hours before
daylight opened on them, in order to find
the position Of their guns. Tie Rebels re-
piled, aud terrific cannonadiug was kept
up TIL daylight, our guns completely 81
,cucing theirs. Everything remained
quiet until sunrise, when Morgan's divis-
ION on the left, began the fight in earnest,
which gradually extended to our trout,
and the ri Of muskG'ry aud roar Of can
non were indeed awful. Our brigade was
then ordered to the front to support the
batteries, while the second ,krmi,h.d.
Ia few minutes We were iu the midst of
mortal strife, and in full view of the Rsb-
els works. Our position was in low,
marshy, heavy timber bottom, extending
from the river to a mile in advance Of Us,
where the land rose in high, steep cliffs,
extending as far as the eye could carry.
Toward the top Of these cliffs the Rebel
cannon were planted in caves dug in the
earth, 50 as to afford protection to the men
Half way between Us and the cliffs were
their riile-pits before which the timber
was cut down, forming an almost impene-
trable barrier.
Gen. Smith, in attempting to cross the
second brigade, was severely wounded,
but kept on his horse sometime giving or
ders, until be became faint, aud was car
ried from the field. X braver man never
lived. Gen. Sherman then commanded
Tue batteries then kept up an incessaut
fire till dark, the infantry keeping up
heavy skirmisbing. Monday night the
cars were running all night. and We sup
posed they were getting reeuforcemcn 5,
which was the case. Next day the first
brigade was ordered forward. This con-
sis,s Of tue 9th aud Sth Mo, ll9th H.,
and 18th Regulars, and Is what Sherman
calls his "star brigade" The 9th Mo,
started in advance, and in few minutes
arrived at the bresstworks, bu, found it
too steep to scale, as in front there was
deep bayou.
Next day no fighting was done, and
some Of our boys being on picket met the
the Rebel pickets half way, aud had
talk with them. They admitted heavy
loss, but said We could never take the
Place. They also said JEFF Davis had
been there few day before, and made a
speech, telling them that the war would
be over By next spring. They all np-
peared anxious to have it settled.
We fell back to our boats, but they did
not follow, and not a man was lost in our
retreat. Tho whole feet is here but its
destination am unable to tell WR.
