A h,IsrINGUISHED FAMILY.

The Lee family, of Virginia, occupies
an important place in American history.
A hundred years ago, Thomas Lee,
grandson of the first American Lee, aud
grandfather of Robert Z. Lee, was Pres
ident of :he Council, and acting Govern
OF of the province. Three of the sons
of Thomas Lee bore promnen: parts in
our Revolutionary struggle. Two of
them, Richard Henry, aud Francis Light
foot Lee. were among the signers of the
Declaration of Independence. Richard
Henry Lee, on the 7th Of June. 1776,
moved the adoption Of the famous reso-
luton in the Continental Congress that
s'These United Colonies are, aud of right
ought to be, free and Independent
States" &c.
Another son, tho father Of Gen. Rob-
ert E. Lee, was Henry Lee, the famous
cavalry commander, and known as aLe-.
gion Harry" He was member of Con-
gress when General Washington died, ),
and was chosen to dsliyer-the eulogy on
that occasion. In connection with this
effort he gave utterance to the phrase so
often quoted: First iH war, first in
peace, and first in the hearts of his coun.'
trymen.." - ai# -

Let young man at twenty years or
age put twenty dollars at interest instead
of expeuding it for tobacco. Then at
the beginning Of the next year repeat it,
and include also the principal aud inter-
est of the preceding year, until he shall
have reached the age OF seventy. The
amount he would realize would exceed
s30.000.-Erchange-
That would pay his funeral expenses
What's the use of stopping at seventy,
however! At eighty he would be worth

$4,000. At one hundred, S24O, 900.
At one hundred aud ten, S4S0,0O0. At

one hundred and thirty. 81 .920,000 At
at one hundred and forty, So, $40, ,000.-
At one hundred and ffty, 81, 6S0,000.-
And SO forth. If he should be right
plueky, and live until he was two hun
dree, he wonld be worth good deal more,
unless the bank should break. If he
could only contrive 10 go Methuselah one
year better, he would be a heavier man

he should accustom himself to wearing q
cast-iron shirt, and thus do away with
the expense of wash bills, his prosperity
would be accelerated two fold. On ar

the egotism Of an old man. whom I
add that the age of Gen. Lee was
within few days tho same as my own.
I was with him from the very first to
the very last of his campaigns. /
honored, loved and obeyed him for
four years. He has. in the words Of
his last moments, "struck his tent"
In o very short time shall receive
the mandate to strike my tent too;-
and I now pray that when that order
comes to you and to me that we may
all be ready to follow him in the march
to that "bourne whence no traveller
returns. to join him in that innumer-
able army Of the Captain OF Saliva
ton, who is invincible, who hath de-
manded Of Death his sting, and Of
the grave its victory. There is no
more sting for Gen. Lee, and his now
is the victory. In defeat he was glo-
rious, and in death more than victo-
rious.

EDUCATION OF THE DEAF AND
DUMB.


In Chicago the deaf aud dumb chill
dren, between the ages Of six and twelve
years, are being taught to speak and to
understand what is spoken to them by
Distinguishing words from the motion Of
the speakers Iips. This is after the Eu-
rotcan system, having been IN use for
hing series Of years for that uDfortuna;s
class in many parts Of Europe. The sys&
TEN has been recently adopted in the most
prominent institutions in the country
1t is founded upon the fact that speech,
or articulation, is mere mechanical pro-
cess, the resnlt Of certain movements
identical in all individuals. Of the lips,
tongue. and other vocal organs. Through
patient study and pactiee deaf mute ac1
qaires The ability Of compreheDding these
visible movements Of the organs Of speech
--technically called lip-reading-with
such precision and correctness that we
can speak to him just as TO persons en-
dowed with the sense of hearing. Tho
other part of the system is to enable the
deaf mute to utter sounds himself, and
this re,s upon the fact that the above
named movements of cur vocal organs,
while performing their Office. are Decessa-
riiy and indispeusably accompanied by a
more or less forcible emission Of breath
from the mouth, or vibration Of the
throat and chest, caused by the strainiDg Of
certain muscle. located 10 these parts of
the body. Having once that idea con-
veyed to him, there is no reason why be
shoaid not be able to initiate sounds and
speech and learn his Dative tongue. He.
does not use il now, not no account Of his
vocal machinery being incapable Of oper-
alton, but simply for the same reason
that American children do not use the
Chinese or any other foreign language,
that is, because he never heard anything
about it. His vocal organs being in
quite normal condition, it requires only
10 convey an idea Of sound to him, aud 10
give him knowledge of his faculty to iufi-
tate it.

NEW ANECDOTE OF GEN. AN.

tanning to the memory of the old he

At gleat Democratic meeting held
at Prescott, November 5th. Sylvester
Mowry spoke of the relations of ma
tional politics to the Territories, aud
made an effective appeal to the De-
mocracy to be united. In closing his
speech, Mr. Mowry said: "Do you
want TO know how Brady {the Demo-
cratic candidate for Congress) cannot

honest man? will tell you. Brady's
father was one of General Jackson's s
most intimate friends, and was one of
his earliest appointments to- Office

message to Congress. destroying the
