NORFOLK, Jan. 8-The Herald's special says
details of the negro enaeute near Kempsville in
Princess Anne county, have been received
Lieut. Farragut and his force while on the
way to the farm occupied by the negro squat
tiers who were to be elected, passed an armed
force of IS negroes in the woods who made no
demonstration. Upon nearing the squatters'
quarters fresh number retreated to house
which was surrendered. Sergeant Cullen ad-
vanced to the door and was instantly shot
which so infuriated the troops that they re-
turned the fire, and rushing into the house
bayOneted one or two negroes. Three were
killed outright. The troops were withdrawn
from the scene of the ARRAY after effecting the
arrest of two of the ringleaders. A delega-
ton of negroes then waited upon the officer
and demanded the arms that were captured,
which was refused. The spokesman replied
if that is the way things were going every
white man would be run out of the country.
The citizens of Kempyile picketed that vii
lage, the woods being filled with armed negroes
the entire night. This morning they had dis
appeared, and with the view to a more speedy

not assert anything that would do injustice to the at

Coffee and frequent childbirth, is far oftener caus

When reviewing the causes of these distressing
complaints it is most painful to contemplate the at
attendant evils consequent upon them. 1t is but sim
pie justice to the subject to enumerate few of the
many additional causes which so largely affect the
Ite health, and happiness OF woman in all classes of
society, andwhich consequently affect more or less
directly, the welfare OF the entire human family The
mania that exists for precocous education and mar
rage, causes the years that nature designated for
corporal development to be wasted and perverted
in the restraints otdress, the early confinement of
school, and especially in the unhealthy excitement
Of the ball room. Thus, with the body half clothed
and the mind unduly excited by pleasure, peryerting
in midnight revsl the hours designed by nature for
sleep and rest the work of destruction is half accom-
plished. .4.
In consequence OF this early strain upon her sys-
TEN, unnecessary effort is required lby the delicate
voary to retain her situation in school at later dav
thus aggravating the evil When one excitement is
over, another in prospective keeps the mind morbid
ly sensitive to impression, while the now constant
restraint OF fashionable Dress absolutely forbiddng
the exercise indispensable to the attainment and re-
tention organic health and strength the

complete prostration produced by excessive dancing
must of necessity produce their legitimate effect At
least an early marriage caps the climax of misery
and the unfortunate one hitherto so utterly regard
lees of the plain dictates and circumstances of her
delicate nature, becomes an unwilling subject of
medical treatment. This is but truthful peture of
the experience of thousands of our young women.
Long before the ability to exercise the functions ot
the generative organs they require an education or

called the tissue, which is, in common with the fe-
male breast and lips evidently under the control of
