Above all mistakes is that of suppos.

the case. A system of petty restraints
and privations, OF severe looks and inees-
SAINT chidings, only results in depraving
the feeling and perverting the reason of a
young person. He is, in such circum-

The REBELS WouLDN'T STAND FIRE.
1t is well known that the rebels made
but slight resistance 10 the crossing OF
the Rappahannoch by our forces, and the
general impression Is thst 10 resistance
was intended. Accounts, however, con-
cur in stating that the rebels broke and
cowardly ran when pressed by the bayo.
nets of the Unionists. 1t has been sta.
ted, too, that there we're but few rebel
sharpshooters stationed in the city. How
true this statement is, is ascertained from
an official list of the wounded published
in the Richmond Enquirer, in which it is
stated that there were forty-two regiments
stationed in fredericksburg to resist the
Gro sing Of the Union forces. But OF them
all the only ones which stood with cred
table show of bravery were from Mis-
sissipp, and known as BarksdaIe's brig
AIDE.
The TURF SCANDALS IN ENGLAND
The London Army and Navy Gazette
says that the Court of Inquiry upon the
officers of the Grenadier Guards, impli-
Gated in the turf scandals, has made its
report, but it is neither as clear in the
conclusions. nor in any way as satisfacto-
ry, as could be wished. Virtually, il
leaves the whole decision Of the fate
of Colonel Burnsby entirely in the hands
of the Commander-in- Chief; and upon the
charge Of swindling at Mamhead, kind
of questionable verdict is pronounced,
leaving matters in much the same state rs
the Stewards of the Jockey Club left the
Tarragona affair at Newmarket. This
can scarcely be considered satisfactory to
Col. Burnaby, or the regiment whose
honor is concerned.
A REBEL INTERNAL MACHINE
member Of the SD regiment, now in this
city, has shown us portion ola cartridge
taken from rebel prisoner, consisting Of
three cones. passing one within the other.
something as one thimble would be placed
in another. In crease around this was
found white powder, connected by means
OF thread acting as "slow match to
the powder Of the cartridge. This was SO
arranged so as to explode in certain time
after leaving the musket from which it
might be fred, thus making the load con-
sist Of three projectilesinstead Of one. If
An explosion should take place while the
bullet was in the body Of person struck
by it, it would make terrible wound. -
The weapon used by the prisoner from
which these cartridges were taken, was
an Austrian musket, with large bore.
