Mr.. S. P Bosey, Teacher of the Public School
at this place, invited the parents and friends OF
his pupils to witness the exercises, and judge OF
the progress they have made. But comparatively
few of the parents were present, but all seemed
gratified with the exercises in the different
branches. We noticed serious defect in the
schooI-roonl. There is not room enough. The
space devoted to the classes is entirely too narrow
and it cannot be remedied with the present desks.

REVIVAL IN REIsTERsTowN,-W have received
from correspondent at Reiserstown an account
Of religious revival in the Methodist Episcopal
Church of that place. II is entirely too long for
our columns at this time. He says that on the
evening of the 2lst he visited the Church, /" An
invitation was extended to the congregation,
when in few moments some twenty persons ap-
preached the alter 1t was most remarkable in
deed to us, to see what great rush was made
towards the mercy seat the entire church seemed
in commolon friends seeking friends, and hum
bly, soliciting them to make change in their
feelings and opinions ere it be too late y .
This revival of religion has teen going or for
seven or eight weeks, or probably more, and we
have heard of upwards Of q hundred and thirty
converts Some GO have joined the NJ. E. Church,
while others have been united TO the Lutheran
denomination This speaks we'll for our commu-
nifty, and rebounds much to the credit OF those
ministers who have so nobly placed their shoulders
to the work. This great spiritual revolution
still continues, and bids fair to last for some time
to come. Crowds come from distance, the en-
tire community seems astir, and no doubt much
more good will be done.

GENERAL BAIRD ON TIE NEW
IL 1 l

GENERAL BAIRD ON TIE NEW
ORLEANS mASSACtkE.
GencFnl Baird's report On the New Orleans
massacre, which We puhlisll this morning,
Is a document Of great interest and Import
ancc, and will amply repay the most careful
pcrusal. II gives complete history Of tho
circumstances that came within the knowI.
edge Of the General; and It establishes
beyond all doubt the startling fact that 1t
was an organized o6leia1 butchcry, dclibcr.
ately planned and relcntaessly executed.
Tie reader will note With what studied cuu-
ming the Mayor and Lieutenant Governor
proceeded, and with what dcep-iaid plot
ting they strovc, in advance, to cover up the
responsibility of tho nedisated crime. The
Eel purpose Of their visits to General Baird
seems to have been to prevent his Interior
ence, and TO imprcss him with the belief
that there was no danger.
General Baird bns been severely censured,
both by the loyal and the rebel press, for Ills
tardy movements In auppressing tho mob.
The rebel press has sought TO make II np-
pear, first, that the Convention and the ne
groes were the rio tcrs, and next, thot Gcu.
cral Baird was mainly rcsrorslblc for the
bloodshcd, because he did not use the troops
moro promptly in protecting the Innocent
police and Thugs from tic violence Of the
Union men. The reader csn Judge whether
the Gencrnl should be censurcd, and, II so,
10 what extent. The substance of his dc.
fence is that he was deceived by the trcach.
crous ASSURANCES Of the Mayor and the
Lieutenant Governor. According to other
statements he ilscrcdited what was told him
by eye-witnesses oftlle massacre, and refused
to believe tllat there was any trouble even
while the butchery WAS in progress. In his
report, however, he apparently claims ia
have brought up the troops Us soon rs posi-
bic nfter the riot actually began. He Ger.
tainly seems to have cou6dcd great deal
In rebel honor, and however FREQ from blame
he may be, It is exceedingly unfortunate
that his troops were not nearer at hand.

We have before Us the Mobile Tribune of a
late date, In which the editor assures Lis

tion gives proof that there are men at tho,
right" Of the South, and he then felieitates
the South upon the certain fact thu. III case:
Of another civil war TO maintain Southern
rights, UT Is not difficult to divine under
whose banner they would be enlistcd.''
He adds that "tho strange spectacle would
be presented Of men who have been stig-
matized as rcbels' fighting side BY side y
with johnson, Doolitilc and Raymond. to
cxtirpatc the Yankees.
The Philadelphia Convention and Andrew
Johnson'e speeches harc cruelty deceived
these people, They have induced these pco-
pic to believe that their rebellion was some.
thing to be proud Of; that their debt should
not be rcrudia.cd without their consent,
thAt slavery has not been legally abolished,
and that there Is . portion Of the Northern
people who arc prepared, under Johnson's
lead, TO engage in another rebellion, and an
other civil war, to prevent the rule Of the
majority, and 10 restore slavery TO its former
power.
Let the American people by their unanim-
ity this fall, unlccefvc these dupcd rebels
and teach them aud their Northern dcma-
gogucs, who cater to their rcbcllious hopes,
that The majority shall rule, and in the as.
scrtion Of that principle, men and parties,
