instead OF strengthening an important
point like Jackson.
There are no Notifications here, except
some feeble efforts made by Gov. Pettus
last winter, which are SO situated.that an
attack on them would involve the destruc-
ton of the city. The citizens here are
very loud in their denunciations of Penn
bertOn and declare that he has sold the
State of Mississippi to the enemy.
IN JACKSON.
We arrived in Jackson at about three
o'clock this afternoon. The citizens were
very much agitated lest we should burn
their town, ravish their women, and do
such other deeds as can only be conceived
in the heart of detested Yankee. We
found q large number of tents pitched
where the rebel camps had been, officers
baggage in large quantities, ETC., showing
all the evidences Of precipitate retreat !;
also, five Parrot guns, and about twenty
gun-carriages, caissOns, etc.

A MOTHEK'S PRAYER FOR HER
CHILD.

Father, lowly on my knee,
l, supPliant. come to Thee;
Such the anguish of my mind
Scarcely words for prayer find.
Father. grief hath made me Wild
Spare, oh, spare my darling child
Thou hast power to stay disease;
Thou hast power to give him ease;
Free his little limbs from pain;
Still the thrObing of his brain.
Lowly bending on my knee,
Father list my prayer to Thee.
Thou didst give him to my heart
OF my Utmost life part;
Grant him life: to health restore;
Rack my bleeding heart no more.
Can watch his agony?
Father! give him back to me-
Bring the color to his check;
Give him strength-sO wan and weak
Light again with smiles his eye
Father! to thy throne on high,
Morning, noon and night shall rise
Grateful praise and sacrifice.
But oh, God. shouldst thou deny
Answer to my anguish cry,
Bear me up, so faint, so weak,
Let my burden'd heart not break:
Make me feel, with Thy dear Son,
Not my will, but Thine be done.

INCIDENTS IN THE "BLACK COUNTRY. ,

INCIDENTS IN THE "BLACK COUNTRY"
The last number OF the Edinbu,y Re-
vie'c (republished by LEONARD Scorr &
Co.. has an interesting article entitled
"The Black Country" describing life in
the coal districts of England. The start
ling revelations of the Parliamentary Com
missions appointed to inquire into the en-
ployment of women and children in the
mines, the recent terrible disasters in the
pit, resulting in the loss OF many hundreds
Of lives, the general Indifference alike of
prOprietors and workmen to any measures
of precautior, have at last drawn public
attention to the condition of the mining
population, and the writer in the Edinbu2Y
sums up the results Of late investigations,
spicing the narrative with sundry anec
dOtes.
Familiarity with the perils of the mines
breeds contempt Of danger among the
miners. Here are two or three illustrative
instances:
AN OBSTINATE BOY.
The boys in the coal mines are expressly for
hidden to ride on the ''draughts," or loaded
tram wagons, which are drawn by horses from
the face of the work to the shaft. II they fall
off a severe, perhaps a fatal accident is the
consequence. One sturdy lad whose cOmrade
had lately been killed by u fall, was told by the
charter-master, at the Inspectors request, that
ii he ever caught him at that work again he
would strap" him. "Then thee must strap
me, reckOu," was the cool reply. The young
Spartan was turned out of the pit as the only
means OF saving him from the consequences Of
his O6StInacy, and as warning to others. But
punishments and warnings avail little At last
another accident happens. 1t is reported that
-nObodyS fault but his own the father comes
mp with the big tears was ing or rather blOtting
his begrimed face and takes q rueful comfort
III telling the manager how he has chidden and
beaten the boy for the same offence scores of
times-and what is to be done? 1t is not easy
to prevent young gentlemen who are trained
we may presume, to greater docity than the
rude collier lad from sliding down the banis-
ters and in all classes of life youth will III
dulge in FRANKS in which no enjoyment can be
discovered except the zest of disObedience and
the excitement Of danger.
CASE OF WOUNDED PRIDE.
''NOt yet" seems to be the delusion which
keeps them working on, moment after mo-
ment, in situations of peril till at last they
stay one moment too long-and all is over.
One day last year man was engaged in draw
ing the wood from an abandoned working.
He was furnished with q long bar to knock
away the props at safe diStance-the roof
hitherto had proved sound, and " preferred a
short rickaxe. On removing one of the sup
porters an overwhelming rush of ''clunk" or
fire clay fell upon him and buried him in an
instant. Help came too late. On one occa-
sion the charter-mast saw a man working
without the usual prop Of timber at his back
he demonstrated on the danger of such careless
ness, and, bringing tree" as it is called,
fixed it in its proper place. There was some
thing in this proceeding that offended the mans

ARTIFICIAL "SIAMEsE TWINS
curious experiment was lately made at
Straaburg to effect the union Of two ami
mails. so that they might, to certain de-
gree, have life in common; producing
arti6cially what nature produced spontan-
eouly in the Siamese Twins. Two white
rats, of the Alibno species, were selected
for the experiment. An incision was
made on the right side of one, and on the
left of the other, engaging the skin and
the cellular tissues under it. The sur
faces of the two wounds were kept closely
together by sutures and bandages till the
sixth day, when union by the FIRST inten-
ton was found to have taken place.
They then walked side by side, being uni
ted by feshy band. An attempt to
poison both by the mouth of one did not
succeed, but an injection thrown into the
jugular vein Of one animal was found to
have entered the superficial femoral viens
of the other, showing clearly that an init
mate vascular union had already taken
place between them. This interestingly
pertinent may have an important bearing
on restorative surgery.

A dispatch from General Brown to
General Curtis, dated Springfield, 9th,
says the battle at that place lasted thir.

guns. The expedition was fitted out on
the Arkansas river and marched at least
80 miles in "a hours, diminishing with
our scouting parties most of the way. The
enemy opened FIRE on the town without

Additional Particulars 81 the Cnp-
lurs OF Arkansas Point.
Cairo. Ian. IT

BY the arrival of the steamer Mushroom
from Arkansas Point, which place she
left Monday At 8 p. M, we have some ad
ditional particulars repecting the taking
of that fertilization. The attack was made
by the gunboats. Skirmishing and can
nonading continued through Saturday,
and up to Sunday afternoon, when our
land forces stormed the works, capturing
the entire rebel force and all the mum
tions of war, including the ammunition
taken from the Blue Wing. The rebels
had earthworks two miles below the main
fortifcations from which they were shelled
on Saturday. They had also here sever.
al pieces of cannon. At this point the
Louisville was struck several tmes-three
balls entering her port holes, killing -four
men and cutting her escape pipe.
The land force debarked below the for
tifications and attacked it in the rear car
rying their works by brilliant charge.
The main fort of the Notifications was
built of square timber, covered with heavy
pl..nks. and over this railroad iron. II
was covered 6 feet with earth. 1t il
described as very strong and contained
eleven-inch guns and a number of others
of less caliber. Every rebel gun was dis.
mounted, and quantity of railroad iron
torn of by our powerful guns. The rebel
commander was either Gen. Churchill o,
Gen. German Hill, we have both reports
This force was about $500. Two regi.
ments Texas Rangers are said to have
come in Sunday r'rlt'o reinfore the post,
and did ntt INV Il had surrendered till
they were made prisoners.
No definite report has reach.d here a,
to the killed or wounded on either side

started up the Arkansas on a reconnois-
sance. 1t is thought larger gunboats and
