TIE HARRIS CASE.


The Harris Court-martial progresses very
slowly. The testimony already taken is that OF Ser
geant Chapman and Private Read OF the ed Virginia
RebeD Regiment and tends TO show that Harris told
them not to take the oath Of allegiance but TO go back
and light the Yankees again. He gave them money to
return to the Rebel army. When the killing of Mr..
Lincoln was mentioned Harris said il too late to
Kill him now and rebuked them for saying that JEFF
Davis ought TO be killed too. Harris said Mr.. Davis
liz a gentleman. and ought TO succeed. 1t is
said also but does not yet appear in evi
|dence that when Harris heard Of the assassination
he threw up his hands and cried. Thank God this
the happ.est day Of my lfe On the first day Of the
Court Harris refused to call counsel but is to be
defended by Mr. 5. Carlyle. Harris objected TO being
condemned ON the testimony Of Rebels. but Judge
Advocate Winthrop overrued the objection the
ground that the accused and the witnesses Of the
same faction. The court met to-day but adjourned
on motion of the Judge Advocate.

How to Remain Young.

The following is given On the authority
of one of the most famous physicians of the
age, and will doubtless be highly appreeia-
ted by hundreds of readers, of both gend-
ers but more especially by the ladies, or that
portion of them upon whose countenances
Time is beginning to leave his tracks: To
remove wrinkles, lines, crow sfeet, &c, says
our authority, when presenting themselves
prematurely ; or when the rules Of severe
illness, as well as to ward them off at the
time of life when they may be expected to
show themselves, several essential points
must be observed The face should be well
bathed in cold water every morning, winter
as we'll as summer, by means of sponge.
Curd honey, or common yellow soap, should
be used in washing the face previous to bath
ing. The oftener cold water is applied to
the face the better. If any roughness of the
skin ensues, little cold cream, applied at
night, will soon remove it. Then, again,
as much exercise as can be conveniently ta-
ken in the open air, every day, is to be prac-
ticed. The dietm be generous but whole
some. Plenty OF substantial food should be
taken, with port wine, or stout porter. YIN
egar, pickles and other acids must be avoided:
In addition to all the above rules, it would
be as well if regular hours were observed,
and heated places of amusement seldom
visited -

Pat and the LAWYER.

Two.lawyers were walking out one summer
morning when they were met by an Irish
man noted for his ready wit
Good morning, Pat" says one of the
lawyers, who happened to be acquainted
with the Irishman, and wishing to show his
friend some of Pats wit.
Good morning, your Honor, says Pat.
''Pat, my friend and myself have had
quite an argument this morning as to wheth
er there ever was an Irishman in heaven or
not, and we have concluded TO ask your o.
pinion on the matter.
Faith there was one there, says Pat.
''Well how did he happen to get there?'
says the lawyer at the same time nudging
his friend 20 notice Pat S witty answer.
WELL continued Pat, there was once a
good old quaker, who had an Irishman liv-
ing with him, and the quaker told him that
if he kept on and served him as faithfully
as he had until he (the Quaker died that
he would take him to heaven with him. In
the course of time the quaker died, and the
Irisman went to heaven with him. But
when it was Known that there was an Irish
man In heaven there was a great time, and
he was ordered to leave, but he refused to
leave, unless he was put out by regular
course of law and they searched heaven all
over, but the divil a lawyer could they find,
so there was one Irishman, but niyer bit

DON'T FORGET Your GIRLs.-When |
lived among the Choctaw Indians, tsays a
tfaveler,) | helda consultation with one of
their chiefs respecting the stages of their
progress in the arts of civilized life. and
among other things he informed me that at
their start they made q great mistake, they
only sent their boys to school. These boys
came home intelligent men, but they married
uneducated and unciyilized wives and the
uniform result was the children were
like their mothers. The father soon lost all
his interest both in his wife and children.
And now, said he, if we would educate but
one class of our children, we should choose
the girls, for when they become mothers,
they educate their sons. This is the point,
and it is true No nation can become fully
enlightened when mothers are not qualified
to discharge the duties OF home work of ed
ucation. Parents give your daughters, as
well as sons, the best education in your
power.

CONFERENCE.-THE / were to choose the
people with whom would spend my hours
of conversation, they should be certainly such
as labored no further than to make them
selves readily and clearly apprehended, and
would have patience and curiosity to under
stand me. To have good sense, and ability
to express it, are the most essential and ne
cessary qualities in companions. When
thoughts rise in US fit to utter among familiar
friends, there needs but very little care in
clothing them.

Teach Your Boys to Aspire.

u
Much prOsy advice is bestowed on boys
and young men that never gets beyond the
drums of their ears. One of the most use
full ideas you can introduce in young head
is that its owner is bound to make his mark
in the world if he chooses to try. Teach
him that it depends solely upon himself
whether he scars above the dead level of
mediocrity or not, whether he crawls or flies.
Give him, as far ssaS possible, confidence IN
his own inherent capabilities. Argue that
he has the same faculties by which others
have risen to distinction, and that he has
only to cultivate them and apply in their ex-
ercse that mighty propulsiye agent, de-
termined will, in order to rise Bid HIM
shoot his arrows not at the horizon, but at
the zenith. 4 boy who sets out in life with
the Presidency in lis eye, although he may
fall short of the mark, will be pretty sure to
reach higher position than if his ambition
had been limited to the position Of town
constable, or d tide walters berth in the
Custom House. This is not land where
poverty is serious impediment to advance
ment. Very few of our millionairs were
born with gold spoons in their mouths, and
several of the most distinguished of our
statesmen earnred their bread in early life by
the sweat of their brows Fortunes gifts
are wrung from her in this country by heads
and hearts that know no such word as fail,
and Fame has no special fayors for the silk
stocking class. Action, says Aristotle, is
the essence of Oratory, but it is more true
that energetic ,otU is the soul of success. The
best temporal advice a father can give son
is 'asptre.
''Boy, let the Eagles fight ever be thine,
Onward and upward and true to the line."

FOREIGN RECOGNITION OF THE CoNFED-
ERACY-The Confederacy in its extremity
has at length made formal propositions to
the French and English Governments for
the recognition of the rebel Government,
in consideration of the abolition of slavery,
which has hitherto been considered by the
South the great moral obstacle to European
sympathy. These propositions, however
much weight they might have had in the
earlier stages of the rebellion, when the reb-
will not be accepted by either France or
England-it being evident that the rebellion
is on its last legs.

almost universal This diminution, it is be-

The Lumber Trade of Toledo, Ohio.

The lumber trade of Toledo for 1864 ex-
hibits "a large increase over former years, and
also shows that, as market for black wal
nut lumber, Toledo leads all others in the

ed in eastern papers some weeks since, To-
ledo furnishes more than one-half of the
black walnut lumber received at the leading
eastern markets. The receipts of black wal
nut lumber, from all sources, during the
year 1864, reached nearly $4,000, 900 feet.
OF this amount there was shipped

BoRAx TO KILL WATER BUGS.-At the
last meeting of the Boston Society of Nat
ural History, report was made by mem
Der upon the effect of pulverized borax upon
the water bugs and cockroaches that infest
our houses. The experiment was made by
sprinkling it around every crack and crevice
suspected of affording shelter to these in
sects, with this effect: that after three or
four days quantities Of dead ones were found
on the doors, and hardly live one found in
the house. Another experiment was tried
by confning two healthy specimens in bot
tie, with little borax at the bottom Of it,
with air freely admitted. At the end of
twenty four hours one was found dead, the
otherquite feeble in thirty-six hours the last
one was also dead. Thus proving this sim
pie and perfect remedy, the value of which
most ouse-keepers viii appreciate.

ABEAUTIFUL THoUGHT.-A writer whose
life has passed its meridian, thus discourses
upon the fight of time,- Forty years once
seemed long and weary pilgrimage to make.
It now seems but step. And yet al long the
way are broken shrines where a thousand
hopes are wasted into ashes; footprints sa
cred under their dust green mounds whose
grass is fresh with the watering of tears;
shadows even which we would not forget
We will garner the sunshine of these years,
and with chastened steps and hopes, push
on to the evening whose signal lights will
soon be swinging where the waters are still
and the storms never beat.

CONCERNING EDITORS. a printers
festival the editorial vocation was thus done
brown: The man that is expected to know
everything, tell everything that he knows
and guess at the rest; to make known his
character, establish the reputation of his
neighbors, and elect all candidates for office;
to blow everybody, and reform the world; to
live for the benefit Of others, and write the
epitaph on his tombstone: Here he lies at
last" In short, he is locomotive running
on the track of public notoriety; his lever is
his pen; his boiler is filled with ink; his
tender, his scissors; his driving wheels,
public opinion whenever he explodes it is
caused by n-payment of subscriptions.
