j b. A message has been sent to ths
Senate from the President, relative to the
condition Of affairs in the South, in which
he says: "From all information in my pos
session, and from which I have recently re-
ieeived from the most reliable authority,
am induced to cherish the belief that see.
tional animosity is secretly and rapidly
merging itself into spirit of nationality
and that representation connected with a
properly adjusted system of taxation will
result in an harmonious relation of the
States. There is unusual acquiiescence of
authority to- the General Government
throughout the country visited by General
Grant. The mere presence of a military
force, without regard to numbers, is suffici-
cnt TO maintain order.p The President

a $4,000 loss for company of 100000 assets.
The necessity for insurance and the value Of

The Author says:
ST design in this vol ume to record what that Army
did and suffered in ten campaigns and two score bat
tlesp
Il shall have to celebrate the unsferviug loyalty OF
this army that ofttimes when the bond of military
cohesion failed held it mistaken of fortune to duty
self imposed
81 shall have to follow it through eheckered expe-
rience in "A tale conmingied of great misfortunes,
great oles and great glories but from first to last
will appear that amid many buifes offortune through
"winter and rough weather. the Army OF the Poto-
mac never gave up, but made good light, and finally
reached the goal.n
The Army and Navy Journal says
This is the only American critical work on the late
war aud is thoroughly critical and entirely diyesed
of all political hue tonen
THIS is the only History Of the "Grdnd army"
and no one cho has borne part Ia us confics,or

Lessons for the Young,

Children, if you would be wise, and at the same time haypy, be diligent in your studios, and read no books but those which impart moral and useful lessons. The light, trashy literature of the present day. avoid as you would a pestiicnce!
 Above all things earthly, honor thy father and thy mother. Next, be res- pectful to all, but more especially to the aged and infirm: those tottering limbs, those sunken and bleared eyes, those shrunkened cheeks and toothless gums, are but living examples of what you may be at some future time. Their limbs were once as bouyant and elastic as yours; those eyes were once as bright and as full of the fire of youth as yours; those shriveled, sunken cheeks, were once as rounded and rosy ar your own; those toothless gums were once bedecked with teeth which vied with pearls in whiteness. Our little friends, learn to pay homage and to reverence the aged. ''Honor thy father and thy mother in the days of thy youth, that thy days may be long upon earth"
