DISCIPLINE OF TIE YoUNG.--The Oldest son
of President Edwards, eongratulating friend
on having family of sons, said to him with
much earnestness Remember there is but one
mode of family government. have brought up
and educated fourteen boys, two Of whom
brought or rather suffered to grow up with
out the rod. One of these was my youngest
brother, and the other Aaron Burr, my sisters
only son, both of whom had lost their parents
in their childhood and from my observations
and experience, I tell you maple sugar gov
ernment will never answer. Bew are how you
let the first act OF disobedience In your little
boys go unnoticed, and unless evidence Of re-
pentance is manifest, unpsnished.v
"Of all the sermons I have heardp said the
narrator, ''long or short, this has been among
the most useful, as far as the world is concern
ed. 1t is solemn lesson to be prayerfully pom
dered by all parents and guardians" The Bible
lays down four great rules involving the four
great elements of the successful training oi
chadren--praye instruction, example, and re-
straint. And it is doubted if solitary ease
can be found where all these have been united
where the children have not followed in the
footsteps OF the parent while on the other
hand, if but only one of the four have been me-
elected it may have been the ruin of the child
Remember, Christian parents. it is not e.
nough to pray for, or even with your children,
| il your own example oontradiots your teaching
and in vain will be the prayer the example. if
like Eli, when your children do wrong. YOU
restraint them not But let all be found uni
! ted, and If all be faithful to duty and you may
| trust in God that He win fulfil His pro1nis q
and that your children will grow up to serve
Him, and bless you for your fidelity to theil
! highest interest.

General, man named Morris, who formerly,
we believe, lived in this city, admitted loss

that after the fight AveriH went with his COM

Crook the startling information that John Nor

REMOVAL OF A TONGUE M. Maisenneuve,
Surgeon of the Hotel Dieu, describes how he
removed from a patient the whole Of a tongue
afflicted with cancer by means ofwhat he terms
cauterization on feches. He perforated the
tongue with eight of his canterizing arrows,
(aeches,) so as to cause all the affected portions
to slough off in one mass. His patient, after
the removal of the tongue, could neither swal-
low nor speak, bat performed both these func
tions on being supplied with a guttsperchs
tongue of the natural size.

The king, he reigns on q throne Of gold,
Fenc'dround by rights divine;
The baron, be sits in his castle old,
Drinking his ripe red wine:
But below. below in his ragged coat,
The beggar, he tuneth hungry note,
And the spinner is bound to his weary thread
And the debtor lies down with an aching head.
So the world goes,
So the stream flows;
Yet there's fellow whom nobody knows,
Who maketh all free
On the land and the sea,
And maketh the poor like the rich to be.
The lady lies down in her warm white lawn
And dreams OF her painted pride;
The milk-maid sings to the nlild-eyed dawn
Sad songs to the cold hill side;
And the bishop smiles, as on high he sits,
On the scholar who writes and starts by fits;
And the girl, who her nightly needle plies,
Looks out for the seorce of hf., and dies.
So the world goes,
So the stream flows;
Yet there's fellow whom nobody knows,
Who maketh all free,
By land and by sea;
And forceth the rich and the poor to flee.

victea before Court Martial 10 this place. of de-
sertion and joining the enemy, was 'shot to
death with Husketry,p in conformity with the
sentence of the Court, on Friday last. The
execution took place in a field on the Waterman
estate, on the road leading from Harrisonburg
to Rawley Springs, about half mile from

ed from the county Jail about O'Clock, guard
ed By several companies of the Rockingham
Reserves, and attended by the Provost Guard,
Capt. Locke, Surgeon Meem,and q considerable
number of spectators. He was executed about

penitent, weeping freely as be passed from the
prison to the place of execution. He engaged
earnestly in prayer after being tied to the stake
and so continued until the command to fire was
given. At the discharge of muskets he fell dead
almost without struggle or groan. His last
words were "Lord have mercy upon me ~

it was promptly sent over the wires; butow :

General Orders,
NO.
Soldiers of the Army of Western Louisiana
At last have your patience and your devotion
been rewarded. Condemned for many days to
retreat before an overwhelming force, as soon
as your reinforcements reached you, you turned
upon the foe. No language but that Of simple
narrative should recoaot your deeds. GA the
Sth of April you fought the battle of Mansfield.
Never in war was more complete vctcry won.
Attacking the enemy with alscrity wheH the {
order was given, the result was not for a mo-
ment doubtful.
The enemy was driven from every position,
his artillery captured, his men routed In 4eia-
were fresh troops brought up. Your magnif-
cent line, Ike resistless wave, swept every
thing before it. Night alone stopped our ac-
vance. twenty one pieces Of artillery, twenty
i've hundred prlsaers,many stands of colors, two
hundred and fifty wagons attest your success
over the 13 b and 10Th Army Corps. On the
9th you took up the pursuit and pressed it with
lvigor. For twelve miles, prisoners, scattered
arms, burning wagocs, proved how well the
previous days work had been done by the SOL
diers of Texas and louisiana
The gallant Divisions from Missouri and Ar
kansas, unfortunately absent on the 9Th, march-
| ed forty-hVe miles in two days to share the glo-
ries on Pleasant Hill. This was emphaticaIIy
| the soldiers victory. In spite of+he strength
of the enemy's position, held by fresh troops of
the 10th Corps, your vslor and swotion tri-
uinphed over sill. Darkness closed one OF the
hottest fights of the war. The morning of the
10th dawned upon a flying foe, with our caval-
ry in pursuit, capturing prisoners at every step.
These glorious victories were most dearly won
a list of the heroic dead would sadden the stern.
est heart A visit to the hospitals would msve
the sympathy of the most unfeeling. The mem.
/ ory of our dead will live as long as our noble
4 deeds are cherished on earth. The conscious,
ness of duty well Ierformed win alleviate the
sufferings Of the wounded. Soldiers! from a
thousand ,mes thanks will ascend to the Con
of battles for your victories. Tender wives and
4 fond mothers will repose in safety behind the
breast-works OF your vaor. No fears will be-
felt that the hated foe viii desecrate their homes
by his presence. This is your reward; but
much moro remains to be done. Strict discip-
line, prompt obedience to orders, cheerful en-.
duranee OF privations, will alone insure our in.
dependence.
