Southern Ladies Teaching School.

From the New orleans Times, Decemner %.
The widow of one of the most distin-
guished of the Lieutenant Generals of the
Confederate army, who, before the war,
possessed great wealth, and had been
reared from infancy in the midst Of every
enjoyment and luxury, is now a teacher
in young ladies' school in this city. We
are glad to learn that the estimable lady
referred to has had every encouragement
to persevere in her entirely new pursuit.
She had already been preceded in the
same career by near relative of Jefferson
Davis, who, too, has been made widow
by the war, and thrown on her resources
for support Nevertheless, and despite
her delicate organization and want of
previous training, this lady set to work
so zealously to qualify herself for the
duties of teacher that now she is at the
head of one of our most successful schools
for young people in the First District
These are only two of many similar exam
pies of that true heroism which 50 grace
fully adapts itself to the most violent
changes of fortune, and sad bereavements
of the past, confronts and conquers the
seyerest adversely by noble fortitude
consistency and courage.

IT is now six weeks since THE TELE-
GRAPH was enlarged, and its readers have
had time to form an opinion as to its i'm
proYement. Thus far there has been a
general expression in its favor All, as
far as l have heard, are satisfied.
Soon after the paper was enlarged, it
was stated to the public that the price Of
! THE TELEGRAPH would not be increased
but that advance payment would be ex-
pected,-as far as could be.-exacted. 1t
was also stated that, if there were any who
would not or could not pay in advance
the terms would be so cents a year more.
At the be beginning of the year, the con-
ditions of TIE TELEGRAPH are given in
accordance with previous announcements

Of adeanee prices, viii do so soon. Ii they
do not, they must expect to pay in accord
ance with the advertised terms.
The paper and labor for THE TELE-
GRAPH, are now costing one quarter more
than they did before the paper was en-
larged. This increased expense we are
willing to bear, if we can receive advance
payment. But strange to say, there are
subscribers-not a few owing for their
paper 1615 months. Some are owing six
months, and others for less time. Some,
however, have been in the habit OF paying
for the wear at the end of six months.
And few noble men and women too,
have been in the habit of paying in adj
vance. fthis last class, / would men

CAPITAI, PUNIsHMENT.-ph abolition
OF capital punishment is agitated in Illinois
and the matter is likely to be brought be-
fore the Legislature now in session. The
Chicago Tribune is decidedly opposed to
the abolition OF the galIows That paper
says:
"Ihe man who takes the life of atfel-
low being by design and in cold blood,
ought to be put to death No sufficient
reason has ever yet been shown for allow
ing such q wretch to live. 1t is contended
that murders are not more frequent in
countries where capital punishment has
been abolished than were it exists II
this be true (Which we very much doubt
it does not constitute any better reason
for repeating the death penalty, than for
throwing open the jails and penitentiaries
and abolishing all laws for the punishment
of crime"
In Wisconsin the law abolishing capital
punishment, was passed several years ago
and although there are differences sofopin,
ion in respect to the expediency of such
adjustment, yet it is not likely the mat
ter will be agitated by our present Legis
lature.
