Interesting Anecdotes.In our clippings from our exchange

we hare come upon several interestinanecdotes of celebrated personages, wWewe republish in this form. The first iof John Howard Paine, the author oHome, Sweet " Home"—John HowanPaine, the author of tlie sweetest songembracing the purest sentimenis, evepenned bj man. How many sweehomes are cheered by this song, and hovmany turn to home and its fond remembrances as they hear it when absent,have heard it in the far west, in tinsunny south, and never without feelingof deep sympathy for its author, for hhad no home! I knew him well, andwhen he was first appointed Consul aTunis, he was a constant visitor at mybouse. He was poor and complained olneglect. I well remember of an eveningwalk in New York, when we heard voicessinging ' Home, Sweet Home.' Westopped under a window, and at the conelusion he gave a hearty sigh and re-marked,—' How little they kuow of theauthor, who has no sweet home.' "

The next concerns Chas. Lamb' Lamb once convulsed a company with

an anecdote of Coleridge, which, withoutdoubt he hatched in Iris hoax-lovingDrain. ' I was,' he said, ' going from mylouse at Enfield to the East India Houseone morning, when I met Coleiidge onris way to pay me a visit. He was brim-ul of some new idea, and, in spite of my

assuring him that time was precious, hedrew me within the gate of an unocou)ied garden by the roadside, and there

sheltered from observation by a hedge ofvergreens, he took me by the button of

my coat, and closing his eyes, comnenced an eloquent discourse, wavingris right hand gcnlly as the musicalwords flowed iu au unbroken stream fromris lips. I listened entranced ; but thetrikiDg clock recalled mo o a sense ofluty. I saw it was of no use to attempt0 break away ; so, tukiug advantage ofis absorption in hie eubject, and, with

ny penknife, quietly severing my buttoarom my coat, I decamped Five hoursfterwards, in passing the same gardenn my way home, I heard Coleridge'soice'; and on looking in, there he was

with closed eyes, the button iu his fing-ers, and the right hand gracefully wa-ving, just as wben I left him, He hadnever missed me."

A third we found in one of our Statexchanges in an obituary notice of theate Deacon Eben Bartholomew, whoied recently in the township of Crock-ry, in Ottawa county. The noticeays : " He was a man of great decisionf character, and always maintained en-ire control over himself. Ono or twonstances will illustrate this. Manyears ago ho was at work with his son at

bench, and took a pinch of snuff,lis eon said, 'Father, it seems to me

will injure yourself taking so muchnuff.' He at once took the box fromis pocket, without a word, laid t upon

beam, and never touched it again,'he writer of this once dined at his son'souse, and had a seat next to him at theable. He was then an old man ofighty. Observing that he took no tea,remarked : ' It is very unusual for

ersons of your age to decline a cup ofea.' Said he, ' I shall never drink a

cup of tea again while it remains soigh." (Naming the price.) l But do001 not feel the need of it ?' ' Sir,' suide, with emphasis, ' I AM A MAI—andill have no habits that 1 can not control!

t will !' JJown deep in my heart Iaid, ' That is MANHOOD !' "

In the chapter entitled " The Mys-teries of the Ballet," iu a recently published work on theairical and operaticmatters, we have an anecdote of a younggirl whose father was her instructor, a:idwho used to lock her and himself in theroom where she received her lessons, sothat he might not be overcome by theimportunity of his wife, imploring himto spare their daughter. After a twohour's lesson she would fall exhausted onthe carpet, and lie there till she was un-dressed, sponged and resuscitated, beingall the time in a state of insensibility.Her father had determined, cost what itmight, that his daughter should be thefirst in her profession. Such she be-came ; for was she not Taglioni ?

A fifth anecdote we find in an En-glish paper. Its substance is as follows :The late Dean Buckland is said to havebeen so intimately acquainted with theproperties of all the geological formationsof England, that being one night belated,and not knowing where he wag, ho alight-ed from his horse, took up a clod of earthand tasted it. He immediately exclaim-ed, " Uxbridge !" and proceeded on hisjourney.

A last one concerns the celebratedLord ]Jrougham. There is an anecdotecirculated that ho was met leaving theHouse by a brother Peer, who hsd twovery beautiful girls on his arm. "Sorryto eee you leave," waa the remark, " as

these young ladies came expressly tohear you speak." Lord Brougham, asapreux chevalier of the old school, o.'eclar-ed they should rot 1 e dfcapp infed, re-turned to the House, and, asking somequestion on foreign politics, was smiledoft by Lord Melbourne, who was unpre-pared ; whereupon was delivered one ofhis Lordship's most memorable philippics,that shook the very foundation of theMinistry.

ANN ARBOU MICH.

The Major's Hat.Many persons have some . antiquated

nrlicle'of clothing or furniture endearedto them by association, and, which,though of no real value, they jealouslycherish.

My aged fr'end, Miijor Wood, waapartial to a " white hat,' which he hadworn for several years. Tho Major wassomewhat passionate and hasty in hisproceedings, and suffered the usual fateof persons who are quick to anger, inbeing often provoked by jokers.

As he lived in the country and wasfond of ''good things," ho kept quite akirge stock of poultry.

An owl in bis neighborhood, also ap-preciated the fine condition of his chick-ens, and frequently feasted on theplumpest of the flock.

The old gent vowed vengeance onsaid owl, and procuring a musket,charged it with an unusual quantity ofpowder, followed by a large handful ofslugs, and then setting it behind thodoor, patiently awaited the coming ofthe enemy.

Not long after this belligerent attitudewas assumed, the major, while smokinghis last pipe, before going to bed, wasreused by a boisterous tumult amongthe fowls, atid before he could leave hischair, one of his boys, who had beenout for a short time, ran in, exclaimingwith great earnestness :

" Here he is, dad—here's the owl onthe wellpole—let me shoot him, do."

" Go long, you young blockhead, I'llfix the varmint myself, that I will," saidthe Major disdainfully, as he took hisformidable gun in hand and brought itto bear on the white object, which wasplainly enough to be ceen. A stunningroar was heard, and a bright flash momentarily dispelled the darkness, butthe apparent owl sat firm as a knot onthe side of a tree.- " Did you ever see the like cf that ?"

said the nmjor, self-inquiringly.The musket was so reloaded, and

again discharged, but the owl was im-movable.

A suspicionH

that something wasflashed upon the major, so he sat

down his gun, and going to the welldrew down the pole by the bucketrpe ; lo! his favorite hat rent, as he•spi eased it, " all to giblets," by thelouble handful of slugs that had torn:brough it.

The hopeful youth who had contrivedthe trap, and thus far looked on with

reat composure, now made a hasty re-treat and passed the remainder ol thenight in the hay-mow.

low the Veteran Makes Himself Com-fortable.

An army letter has the following des-cription of the manner in whioh a veteransoldier makes himself comfortable iusamp :

" It is a true remark, that a man nev-r knows how much he can do without

uctil he tries it ; but it is more to myresent purpose to say that ho never

cnows with how little he can make him-elf comfortable until he makes the ex->eriment. Nobody possesses this inval-lable knowledge so much as a veteran,

ut a recruit into a forest of pine treeswith his shelter tent, and if he has no-ody but recruits around him, ten to ouehat you will find him under his sliel-er teut three weeks from that time.

Not so with the veteran. If he beamped in the pine forest, give him anxe, a boot-leg, a mud-puddle, a boardr two, and a handful of nails, and heuilds him a house, and a house, too,omfortable aud commodious, and notvanting in architectural beatuy. Firste fells trees, then cuts and notches hisogs and lays them to the requiredeight. His roof he puts on, giving it areat slope, and thatching it with thereen of the pine tops.

" l ie has been careful to leave win-ow spaces, and, taking pieces of his

shelter tent over these, he has providedlight, but keeps out the nipping air ofwinter. Then with his boards he makeshis door, aud, the boot-legs supplyinghinges, it soon swings into its place.Then he fUJs the spaces between the log.swith Boft earth from his mud-p'iddle, andhis home is done, except the chimney,and the forest and mud puddle soon pro-vides that, fur tho chimney is nothingbut a pile of sticks plentifully plasteredwithout aud within with mud. Thenwith his old axe ho manufactures out ofpine logs a full assortment of furniture,beds ead, chairs, table, wardrobe, andgenerally adds a mantel, then, with abright fire upon his hearth, he is pre-pared to laugh at winter, aud generallydoes.

ARMY UNIFOIIJIS.—A recent order ofthe War Department gives official autborization to the practice, which hasbecome almost universal among armyofficers; with reference to the wearingof badges indicative ol rank. It permits officers to dispense with shoulder-straps, and tho prescribed insignia ofrank on their horse equipments. Themarks of rank to be worn on the shoul-der-strap, will henceforth be worn on theshoulder. They will also be permittedto wear overcoats, pantaloons, etc., simi-lar to tbose worn by private soldiers ;nor are ornaments on the hats, over-coats, forage-caps, sashes or epauletslonger required.— Washington Chroni-eh.

FRIDAY MORNING, DEC. 23.1864.

From our Foreign Correspondence.

THE ASCENT OF THE AEGGISCH-H0RN-

Hotel de Glacier de Rhone, )Sept. 27th, 1864 /

The Aeggisch horn is accessible fromViesch, a village in the valley of thoRhone. Two hours distance from itssummit, an enterprising host has estab-lished an hotel, aud, notwithstanding thedifficulties of transporting supplies up asteep mountain side, one has there everyaccommodation of a city house. TheAeggiseh horn stands in a position to com-mand a view both far and near, and hasbecome the resort of those of the travel-ing public who like a little romance—alittle real mountain work—and are notsatisfied always to follow tho well beatenpaths over the mountains. One meetsin Switzerland three kinds of voyagers :first, those who are content with ridingmerely over somo of tho easy passes ofthe Alps, (generally Americans); second-ly, those who love to turn aside andclimb such a mountain as the Aeggish-horn, (among whom are a host of Englishladies) ; and thirdly, the bold, hardy ad-venturers, like somo of the English Al-pine-Club, who think it fun to masterMont Blanc, or stand upon some snow-capped summit heretofore unknown, orventure where the Swiss guide tremblesto follow. As the most of these hazard-ous ascents are made only for la gloire,(the views from other more accessiblepoints being grander and more extensive),and as we were not then aspirants forAlpine Club houors, we put ourselves intho second category of voyagers, and de-termined to asceiid the Aeggischl.orn.

When we left the valley the sun wasmaking its way now aud then betweenheavy and fast flying clouds. The mo-ment after a storm is always the finestfor mountain views, and hence we sot outwhen the weather was thus unsettled-The little foot-path conducted upwardthrough thick pine forests, turning inzig z-igs ever iind anon. Every! hingwent well enough at first, but when wehad ascended for an hour and a half, andhad reached several thousand feet abovethe valley, then a colder atmosphere metus, we began to feel the clouds which w<had seen merely from below, wo becameenveloped in one of those winding sheets,and found a storm of hail aud snow ourwelcomers. We left, behind the forestand emerged upon tho open mountainside, where no tree is hardy enough' tolive. Then the storm was more difficultto face ; we looked earnestly forward tocatch a glimpse of the hotel — our light-house—and we felt how little securitywe had against some sudden outbreak ofnature. To a man accustomed to theplain, and having the habitude of goingiu when it rains, it is the least of romanceto meet a wet, windy snow-storm upon abarren mountain side, when each icyflake comes down with double force, andwhen the only consoling word is, "braveit out boys !" However, we pressedforward, muttering solemnly and lugu.briously, ever and anon, "Excelsior," andhalf thinking that Longfellow had neverclimbed a mountain when he wrote th; tword—when at length our eyes weregladdened with the sight of the hotel,which wau a stimulant, indeed, to ourwearied energies.

We soon found ourselves as it were inanother world. The cold out-doors hadgiven place to a warm in-doors ; an English library was at our service, and for !company were several voyagers, waitinglike ourselves for "a good time coming,"to make the ascent. The rest of theday we were as caged birds. Without wascold, snowy winter. A thick fog pre-vailed, and nothing could be seen but aboundless expanse of mist and hail. Onowitty fellow had opened tha voyager'sbook, and hud painted well our conditionthus : " The world seems to-day a vastcotton-bale, with us poor kuight-errantsin its centre I" How long was this tolast! For the next week or the nextmonth? "Till to-night," said the land-lord; "the weather will clear tomor-row, or my name is not WISLLIO, and I

know nothing of the mountains." Ofcourse we all believed Mr. WELLIG, and

none ventured to stake a five hundredfranc note with him upon the question.My party retired early that night, de-termined to make the ascent at goodtime in the morning if the elements werefavorable.

Toe following morning was beautiful, jNot a cloud appeared. The sun was re- jfleeted upon the new-fallen snow, andthe mountains ibout were brilliantly at-tired in their hew winter suits. Wo jwere up aud off before the other voya-1gers, doterminirjg to be the explorers '

j that morning. The little foot path lead-ing upward was well tiigh obscured bytho snow, and here and there we wereobliged to guess at our route. Ah ! thatascent was difficult. "Now use yourhands, boys; now upon your knees.""Look out for your head," erica one,while tho very moment auother bumpshis cranium against an unseen, projectingrock, which calls forth au anathemaagainst that "granite nuisance" from thebumped individual. No bones brokenhowever ; simply an "oh !" Ml anathema,and a laugh, and "onward" is the wordBut not fast—it is necesxary to restevery few momenta to eateh breath, andprevent utter exhaustion.

At length, however, we stood upon thetop, and we raised a merry cheer as oursouls were stirred within us at the view.We were in the centre of a vast amphi-theatre of mountains, grander than ahundred coliseums. Everywhere weresuow-eapped summits. Towards thesouth-west were the giant forms of MontBlanc and Monte Rosa with their attend-ants. Then a range of white uniformedmountains swept to the eastward to thoSt. Gotthard. Towards the north eastthe Galen-stock aud tho O'uer-aarhornstood masters of the position, while theglorious Bernese Alps, near, and grand,oompleted the amphitheatre. Just be-neath, us the Aletsch glacier appeared,fed by the icy peaks of the Jungfrau,the Moncb, and the Aletsch-horn. makingits bed between the peaks of mountains,winding here and winding there—a greatsolid river of icy pinnacles—not fearingeven the warmth of the valley below,bu* venturing afar even amid cultivation,and feeding the Khone with its debris.Long did we gaze upon this, the largestice river perhaps iu the world, meritingtho title which a rival unjustly carries ofMer de glace.

Thus, as has often been said, theseeternal anows of the mountains feed therivers, and these rivers enrich ths plainsof a continent. How nature economizesher forces !

Upon the 'summit of the Aeggisch-horn ia a wooden cross, covered withnames of the adventurers who have mas-tered tho mountain. I climbed up andput my own there—9,000 feet above thosea. Isn't it something to "make yourmark ?" Isn't it something to elevateone's name so high above those of ordi-nary humanity ? Ho, ye orators thathave filled the world with yonr fame, yocelehret that have written your namesupon tho great Four-Corners, mine isabove yours 1 It's tho highest on thecross that tops the Aeafgisch-horn. Ah !if it were as easy to write ones name inhistory as upon an Alpine cross, howmany worthies would the world know !

We rested an hour upon the summit.How could wo become satiated with thefeast of Nature ! Upon our way downwe met now and then the other voyagersascending, many of whom were buxomEnglish lasses, gay and blooming as therose, eager to master mountain difficul-ties, and boast of mountain triumphs.

After a rest and a dejeuner at thehotel, wo were descending towards thevalley once more. Tho valley of theRhone is a picture. Tho same riverhastens through it, skipping aud dancing,that takes a bath in Lake Leman, hur-ries through France, and rolls at lengthmajestically into the sea. The husband-man makes the earth respond to h's toil,and tho valley is dotted with towns andvillages. But the finest scene ia that ofMont Blanc, which seems the great eas-tern gateway of the vale. I turned everand tnon to catch a view of its brightform, which I have well nigh learned tolove. For have I not like Childe Har-old seen

" the hoarGlaciers of black Mont Blanc both far and

near 1"

I have seen this mountain fromChamouni, and stood in its verypresence ; I have seen it by moon lightfrom the Deut d'Oches, glistening like amouutaiu of silver; I have seen it fromtho Valley of Aosta, as I entered Italy ;I have seen it from Miian, looking likethe colonel of a regiment of Alps; Ihave seen it from the Aoggisoh-horn,brilliant in the morning suo ; and now,as I ascended tho valley of the Rhone,the same white, pure fnnn met mine eyes'Is there not some resemblance betweenthis monarch of the mountains, ever thesame, eternal, unc'rin^eable creation ofNature, ar.d the monarch of men, thatnoble, firm, justice-doing, self-conqu riDgman, whom no storm of temptation moves,whose bright character no crime black-ens ?

Tho Rhone glacier ia at tho head ofthe valley. It fills tho wholo plain be-tween the mountains. Its extremitys;ems like tho great, exaggerated clawof some of those monsters that walkedthe earth in geologioal history. As itlies almost amid vegetation there is acontinual war botween the Seasons, as towho ehall possess it. The Summsr

brings forward his general Sun, who cost. This would serve, at least to makemakes aomo terrible onslaughts upon the death more convenient— leaving the grieffirm front of the glacier, and even causes'of the survivors, (teara, sadness, eto ,)him to bleed a river. But Winter brings [ entirely optional.forward her veteran Frost, who carries] But—although there may bo thus aout the Fabian policy, and acis only on ; " Dying made-easy"—It appears to growtho defensive.

The Inundation at Florence-Some days ago we gave a telegraphic-

memorandum from Florence to theLondon papers, which mentioned thatthere had been an inundation in thatcitv, and that much injury has beendone. We havo a letter from thatcity which says : " I finished my lastletter on the 6th of November, (luringwhich day the rain continued with greatviolence ; night brought us no cessation,but rather an increase, and the riverrose visibly with great rapidity. Fromour window we could see it in the dimlight, sometimes illuminated by thotorches of the watchers, reaching abovetho batiks, and washing the foundationsof the buildings on th« opposite side ofthe river, and beneath, coming within afew inches of tho top of tho wall of thoLung, Arno ; but I was hardly prepar-ed for such a complete overthrow ;IH Ifound nsxt morning had taken place.

" Notwithstanding tho precautionstaken in bricking up doorways, &o.,tho river, where it had ritfen above thuparappt, which in some places is lowerthan where we are, had forced its wavthrough tlie streets and visiteddestruction streets full of houses. Inthe stree's behind us, by the overflow-ing of a little stream which joins theArno, some two feet of water and mudhad mude a morning Tall into all tlihouses, and as the water ran oil withthe subsequent lowering of tho i iver,the mud remained to a cousideiabltdepth. The Arno roue HOIRII twentyfeet, flooding all tho housed above thePonta GS razzia, and rising three i<r f<".irfeet in the adjoining streets. Tha des-truction of household luruittire WUL-D!!-fequently immense), on account of thegreat quantities of thick mud depo-kedt^o rapid was the rise of water thaiboats were used in the Via Myjjgio andVia Guicciaidiui, and the lateral streetsfor the transportation of passen-gers. Ono gentleman told m.:that in returning home, about fouro'clock, be found the first floor of uishouse on the latter street, which runsparallel wiih the river, wuist deep.Fortunately the rain ceased, or thecity of Florence would have had agood chance of being washed away.The scene was very curious t > a non-sufferer the next morning; mud twofeet solid deep, soldiers on duty every

over charge for commodity procured,)grows daily higher and higher; and itwill soon be out of the reach of whatmay bo called a "private geutlemau ' (ifpoor) to eveu pretend to dine; whila" Delmonico's" will be but a remem-brance faintly and fondly cherished. Thacheaper feed—the 'i.orainble-aud dodge,"with the elerk.s, sub editors and shop-boysgenerally, at thu eating-houses, downtown—is of course done u r h a completesacrifice of everything like respectabilityor privacy—though, if one could do it ina mask, (and why might we not thmtin eoy-nify, every man to feed privately,if he likes?) We might get quito asgood a pinner for our ''fifty cents'' downtown, as for our "five dollars" up town,Who will show us how, either to dioreasonable or to dine in a musk ?—Ifom*Journal.

The suspension bridge near uswas in so much danger, as the waterreached nearly to the flooring, that per-sons were forbidden to cross on it, andI now see the workmen are puttingup R scaflolding around one of tho piers,which seems to havo been weakened.If such an event had taken piace athome, the papers would have occupiedcolumns with ,tho account, but herethere are no newspapers published, ex-cept, one or two little sheets about thosize of ordinary note paper.

„., tn in bis possession relative to a propositionof liritiah subjects to give aid to the re-bellion. Lord WhurnclifFe informs Mr.Adams tint tlie Liverpool Bazaar pro-duced about £ ! 7,000, and asks permitsionfor an accredited agent to visit the mili-tary prisons within the Northern Statesaud distribute aid to tlitir minutes. H«denies that any political aid is aimed at,or any imputation that confederate pri»-onurs are deprived of such attentions a*t(je ordinary rules enjoiu. He nays :" The issue of the great contest will notbe del* ruiined by individual suffering, bait greater or less; aud you, whose famiiyname is interwoven with American his-tory, cannot view with indifference thaBuffering of American citizens, wlmtevertheir state or opinions." Mr. Adamireplied that it has never been the dc»ir«of the government to treat with unnec-essary or vindictive severity auy of thamisguided individual parties in' this da-plurable rebellion, who have fallen intous hands in the regular ceuise, and thathe should greatly rejoice if the effects ofsuch sympathy could be extouded to min-istering to their mental ailment as wellas their bodily suffering, thus coutribu-ting to put an end to a struggle whichotherwise is too likely to be procrasti-uated by their English sympathizers.

Mr. Seward replies as follows to the•jpplicatioa received through Mr.Adams :

•'Speaking of price.?, whit a hardplace New York is to die in, to say nothing of the expenses of living there. Anaged friend sickened and died recently,and if lie had not left ample weal h, hisdoctor's bill and funeral expenses wouldhave exhausted the purse of his survivingfamily. Less than two mouths' illnesscost $500 — the doctors' charge being 4per visit. The funeral was from an up-town fashionable church, where the pricefor music was $10, and opening thobuilding $15 ; carriages, some dozen,over $100; scaifs for clergy and pull-bearers more than another 8100 ; coffin,§75 ; which,and other expenses, in tho aggregatereached about $500 ! Verily it is ex-pensive to live in New York, but moreexpensive to die Inert) !"

We have long wondered that literary

your answer to that letter. Younow inform Lord Wharuclifftj thatmission for an ageut of tho committeedescribed by him to visit the insurgentsdetained iu tin military prisons ui theUuited States, aud to distribute amongthem seventeen thousand pounds of Brit-ish gold, is disallowed.

i tions that appeal for relief to charity' either at homo or abroad. The Ameri-can people will be likely to reflect thattho sum thus insidiously tendered in thenamo of humanity, constitutes no largoportion of the profits which its contribu-tors may be justly supposed to havo da-rived from tho insurgents, by exchang-iug with them arms and muni-ions ofwar for tho coveted productions of im-moral aud enervating slave labor, nor willany portion of the American people b«disposed to regard the sum thus osten-tatiously offered for the relief of captur-ed i.isurgents as a tffo generous equivalenttor the devastation aud dissolution whicha civil war promoted and protracted byBritish subjects, has spread throughouti.he stites, which before were eminentlyprotperous and h»ppy. Filially, in viewof tats last officious iuterveutiou in onrdomestic aff.iirs, the American peoplaom hardly fail to recall tho warning ofthe Father of our Country directedagainst two great and intimately con-nected public dangers, namely, seetionalfaction aud foreign intrigue. I do uotthink the insurgents havo become da-based, although they have sadly wan-

In splendid order Kiraball's 1st Di-Tision rn'>ved fir ward to charge, firingvolley after volley as they rushed to-wards tho rebel works.

The County Canvassers were in ses-

sion yesterday, but had not declared the

result at the time of writing this article.

—Since the above was in typo the

County Canvassers have rejected the re-

turn ol the soldiers' vote, and declared

on the home vote. The District Board

have done the same, and Mr. SHIER, in

oidiiiajiy daty to record. The eollicion

completely demolished the two engines.

The engineer and fireman of the freight

jumped before the engines struck, and

those of the passenger train were thrown

to the roadside and miraculously escaped

serious injury. The£trairi8 wore running

nearly at full speed, and the baggage car

went crashing into the forward passenger

car, which was crowded with passengers,

mutilating a large number.

moment of collision between the p$aft-

forms of the baggage and passenger cars,

and could not be extricated by tho most

herculean effort, uu'il lie was burned to

death iu the flames which, taking from

tbe overturned stove, rapidly spread.

The rteital ef his sufferings ia too horrid

to spread before our readers.

Mr. AUI,I,EN had a

of the High School, and Superintendent ofSchools, in the discharge o.' his duties, visitedlhe f>Ui ward school. While there he tookoccasion to reprimand two or three of thelarger boys ia the highest grade,for disobedi-ence of the rules of the seliool, disregard ofthe orders of tlie teacher, aud persistent misconduct—anfl not for the violation of thetardy rule as is stated by a contemporary.These boys had been reprimanded on severaloccasions before, and at this tims Mr. LAW-TOW, in the e.cercibe of the disciplinary powerconferred upon him by. the Board, thoughtbest to administer a little chastisement, thatmight be cemerubored longer than merewords.

This was done, by sitting in his clmir,taking the boys by their coat collar , draw-ing them across his knee, nnd while in thatposition whipping tljeBj wiih. a small willowswitch. While in the act of thusthe second boy, ALPUOXSO COVERT, we believethe largest pupil in school, rose in- his seat,pulled off his coat, and commenced cursingMr. LAWTON, orderiag him to stop, threaton-ing to whip him, and making other demon-strations.

it is neither enjoined nor forbidden by theBoavd, and, we believe, is only resorted towhen other means haye failed to make theproper impression. Its propriety or impro-priety we will not discuss, but, wo may saythat parents disagree upon this point, soinoof them requesting teachers to whip I heirchildren if disobedient rather than suspendthe™, and others preferring a request thattheir children be suspended. It is thereforeleft to teachers- to be goMrned by circum-stances.

Breaking from the corner in which he wasfirst taken by surprise by the three, Mr. LAW-TON left the building, but was pursued andagain assaulted upon the walk. By this timehowever, several citizens reached the spot,and the parlies wsre compelled to desist.

Various rumors arc afloat as to the severityof the chastisement, admiiiisrei-ed by MrLAWTON, which hare no foundation in truth ;and we trust the community will not sentenceMr L. to capital punishment or banishmentuntil they shall know (he facts, which will bedeveloped in the progress of the trial of acomplaint brought against him for assaultand battory upon one of the boys ; at the in-stigation, report says, of a distinguished citi-izen who has made it his boast for the lastyear, that he would drive the School Boardout uf office, and Mr. LAWTOK out of town.

But whither the chastisement administeredby Mr. LAWTON was mild or severe, there isno shadow of excuse for the interference ofyoung COVERT, who was not under discipline,had not even been reprimanded, and who vol-uuteered, it ia believed in consequence of apreconcerted plan, to get up a row. Nor isthere the slightest excuse for the conduct ofthe two men, and the severest penalty of thelaw should be inflicted upon all three. Andif others are inciting such outrages, theyshould be held legally respousible as conspir-atois ; or at least should be vi4ted with pub-lic scorn and indignation.

Teachers may not always be blamelesstfefly are but men and tfom'en, and may errbut the vexations suits which the) have beensubjected to during the last three or fouryears, incite to disobedience and lawlessnessamong pupils, increase the labors of theteachers, promote disorder in the severalschools ; and worse than that, are destroyingthe reputation of our city and our schoolsthroughout the State. It is time that all citi.lens who have the interest of our city and ourschools at heart join with Board and teachers in maintaining good discipline, and inwiping out the stain that is fast spreadingover our fair fame. If the Board make suchrules as shall be disapproved after a fair triaaud full understanding of their workings, ancwill not change them, change the Board. Weare quite confident that no members of theBoard are getting rich in purse, or winningfame enough to induce them to wish to holetho position an hour longer than they are de-sired to do so by tho better judgment of outcitizens. Brrt, while continued in office, a feuevil disposed persons should not be permitteeto undo the good they labor to do, and destroy the schools.

In this connection we miglit say that wehear some complaints that females fre employed as principals of the ward schools, amthat tho Superintendent is given any controover them. We believe that the Board haveinvestigated the matter fully, and that theyhave found the present system—which has beeradopted genera'ly in all the cities of the Stateexcept Detroit—to work as well and as satisfactorily as the old on« under which maleteachers were at the head of our ward scoolsIn nine casas out of ten a good female teach-er will govern one of these SCIIOOIB as well asa male, and in the other one ease there wilbe no difficulty if parents and outsiders willend their aid to maintain discipline, insteacof prompting scholars to rebel against theirteachers.

The-Detroit Tribune and Ad-vertiser— we buy a copy Occasionally—-boastsof having a "paid correspondent" in our city,and of giving ''more local news of Ann Arbor>than all of its papers put together." ThoTribune certainly steals liberally from theAnn Arbor papers, and all others with whichit tlri-ns an exehaiye.. but mangles terriblyin tlie stealing, hoping, perhajw, to avoid de-tection in that way. And, as to its 'paklcorrespondent," lie steals too, or draws ou avigorous imagination, making his "locals," erdistorting wonderfully when he has a groundwork to build upon. Just now he is engagedin magnifying rows between the students and"town rowdies," in which—he always pro-nounces the latter the aggressors. A while agoho made these "town rowdies" shave, and tarand feather an inoffensive student, when if lieknew anything about it, he knew the offensewas committed by students • and last Wed-nesday night, "about 12 o'clock," he perpe-trated a row "between a party of studentsand a crowd of drunken rowdies in front of3EHK'S saloon," in which of course the '• gal-i int" students performed wonders. Now, it

might have been well for this "paid corres-pondent" to have told what this "party oftudents" was doing at that hour of the night

nt—oh, "in front o f—BEHR'S saloon. Wedo not believe it worth the Tribune's while tcend its columns to foster jealousies betweenhe students and "town rowdies"—they oughto be friends—and would suggest that it ad-ise the students to observe early hours, and

keep away from the haunts of these awful'ellows.

—Seriously, we do not believe thi t all thedejjltry perpetrated in our city is chargeableto students or vice versa ; but we do believethat the course of the Tribune's correspondents calculated to engender and promote tlie

growth of ill-feeling between students and.citizens, for all are neither " drunken" or' town rowdies" who occasionally have cause

to complain of the ill-manners of a few stu-dents who do what they can to bring into dis-epute their large body of the well-behaved as-

sociates.

A Card.Mrs. E..K. DuBois wishes to open a class

for instruction in History, English Literature,

and Composition.

Those who wish to commence the study of

French and German can also be accommoda-

ted.

The design is to afford opportunity for con-

tinued mental discipline, to young ladies who

have completed the usual course of school in-

struction ; and who, amiiM the duties of

home life, and the attractions of society, may

lie in danger of falling into habits of careless

and desultory reading, and of losing their

earnestness in the pursuit of intellectual cul-

ture.

Should this plan meet with sufficient en

couragement, its provisions will be gradually

expanded to meet all the wants of the class of

persons for whose improvement it is intended.

Applications will be recei ved until the sec

ond week in January.

eulogised the Napoleons after his favorite

style, before the Students' Lecture Associa-

tion, on Monday evening last. We did not

hear him, but understand that his lecture was

decidedly anti-England, while he declared

that France had been the first friend of our

government since the breaking out of the

rebellion, and would continue our friend. Per-

haps, Mr. ABBOTT, perhaps.

—Miu SUSANNAH EVANS, a young lass late

from Wales, spoke before the Association on

Monday evening. Her subject was Temper-

ance, a subject which appeals directly to wi-

man, and, if any, will warrant her to appear

upon the platform. In this instance, how-

«Ter, despite the good intention we fear bi t

little was accomplished. It was a fair schi o'-

girl declamation, and that ' s all truth wil

permit Ui to eay. If Miss SUSANNAH wishei

to benefit young men, as her introduction

leads us to suppose is her object, she had bet

t«r return to the social circle, and give pri

vate instruction. Her lecture is too tame

•id commonplace to excite enthusiasm or

•wake the conscience.

THE W0KLD FOR 1865.PEPSPKCTUS.

The Presidential contest jut-t closed consigned thepolitical destinies of the people of the United States,during another term 01 years, to the control of 1'resf-dent Lincoln atth.e North, and Jefferson Davis at theSouth.

The Democratic party, always identified with theprosperity, growth, and glory of the republic, mayioint with hGnest pride to its record in txiis great con-

test.Against an administration wielding the most enor-

mous power of patronage and the most uulim.todcommand of treasure ever possessed by any govern-ment, and reinforced alike by the unfounded feaisofmany patriots and the*sympathies of all traitors, theDemocratic party fought the battle of 1804 firmly and'earlessly to the end.

Defeated in the electoral college, t h e ftmau majorityof popular votes by which it has been so defeated iudemnnstrably lees than th» number of persons openlyand officially dependent upon the administration asofficeholders or contractors in the various departmentsi the public nervice.But the result is against us. Tbe law continues to

be administered by men who not only violate its ex-press provisions but invade RIPO those personal ;in1civil rights so high and sacred that constitution can-not confer, but only guarantee them, ami which lawsare made to vindicate and guard. The PURSE is .•-tillborne by mo 1 who, in four years, have heaped uponus, and the unborn generations of our children, a bebtalmost as huge sa that of England, acquired throughcenturies, and whose policy of a 1 loated paper cur-rency doubles upon us tfce present burden cf this gi-gan-ic indebtedness. The SWOK2> is still wielded bythose who see treason in an olive branch, and whomake victories won by our gallant armies and fleets"ruiilesa, since they open no path to the triumphs ofpeace.

Democrats must await events.They can now only watch for the public safety, and

exert all the power of a, great minority to prevent Mr.Lincoln's administration from drifting, for the sake ofabolition, into a disunion peace.

"They also ser^e who only stand and wait.'1The principles of the Democratic party are just, and

will yet prevail, for they are the laws of the progressof the human race. They are the principled whichhave emerged from evt-r.v revolution of the AugloSaxon race, with Increased guarantees and strength.—By these It must stand steadfast, immovablevcompact,harmonious, organized. The coming four years are tobe years of calamity. But now, they who sowed -thewiml* are to be the reapers o | the whirlwinns. TbeDemocratic party is .shorn of power ; but it is divestedoi ;ill responsibility. When the hour of our distresscomes, the people, instead of cursing tin-Democraticparty, will turn to it for relief, and cling to it for de-liverance.

So far, then, from being relieved of duty for theimmediate futur. by our late defeat, a dutv movi ino-perative devolves upon the Democratic PRESS. Senti-nels upon the watch tower*-, now more than ever mustthey be sleepless and vigi ant.

O ten, during the past year. THK WORUI has beenmade to fet'l the hfaiy hand of arbitrary power.—Rendering all lawful support to the constituted au-thorities—to Csyj-n i f'a_'.siir'tf due—avoiding tbe ex-tremes of partisan hostility, and guiltless of any crime,gave unflinching advocacy of a free press, free ipeech ,free ballot, or an ardent devotion to the Union, andsupport of the war for trie Union's salce, it h asnever-,thele*F. hcen repeatedly excluded frommilitary depart-ments by partisan generals, and for several days itsissues were suspended by the order of President Lincoin himself, and its offices closed and occupied byarnierl soldiers at hffe command. The fiaVliry and thefearlessness in the past, which these Mo-.vs struck at usavouch, oui readers are justified ia expecting from usfor the future.

THE WORIJ. for 18(55 will be a better neicspaper thanit has ever been. Its columns, freed from the exactingdtnutii'lsof a political canvass, will afford m re roomfor the news of the day, of all kinds, from ail parts ofthe world.

We shall not be conten&d to give to our reader* theearliest news. Ws shall labor also io have it the moattrustworthy

Thefieest use of t'>e telegraph, which is the rightarm of the press, snd competent correspondents withall ur armies and fletts, not'the national and statecapital^, and at all tha conjmercitil centers of JJuropeand America, and whatever el.se sfeil) can devise or en-terprise accomplish, will contribute to make TUKWORIJ>the befit newspaper of tbe day.

The Sf-ui-'Yai'.Ki.Y WORLD will exactly suit those whowant the newsoltencr tnan weekly, yet do not feel ableto pay $10 for the Daily. It contains all the readingmattei, news and editorials of the Daily, exceptingonly its advertisements.

THK WKEKLV WORI,I> ($2) has now the largest circula,-t on of any weekly journal published , save one. ftiextraordinary success fince its union with ihe NewYork Argus has justified us in vx-ry liberal expendituresfor the year to coraei such as vriil make it without firival iu interest and value to the farmers of OUT coun-try. I f Agricultural Department will be as good andcomplete as any of the agricultural papers, and its re-ports of the attle, Produce and Mony Markets willexcel them all A page or more will be reserved to en-tertaining fireside reading, and the type will be largeand clear enough for old eyes.

All t t e editions of TIIK'WORLD are now printed onnew type. Several new folding machines, just set upin our vaults, will enabk' us to work ofT and mail alleditions with the utmost speed and regularity.

While the war continues, and the currency k of suchshort as it is, we can hope for little JOT no profit- Ourterms havt been increased, but not in proportion to the:iicreased cost of everything used in making a newspa-per. Indeed, to dayilieie is nothing equally v-.Uuibleso cheap as a newspaper.

The Piano Mania,"There is no social disease so wide

•pread, so virulent, and so fatal in its at-tack, as tho piano mania. before agirl i* born, now-a-days, she is destinedto sit and extract dreadful screechings•ad wailings from some unhappy instru-ment for at leant ten years of ner natoral life. No question as to whether•he possesses an ear, and DO considera-tion for the wra of other people, is per-mitted to interfere with the decree,which is as trrwrocable as the laws ofthe Medes and Persians, that 'Kaly' or'Luciudy,' as the case may be, ' mustplay the piano.' The poor thing maybe a natural born housekeeper, with aguniuB for sweeping and dustiug, wash-ing and bilking, but with no more per-ception of chords and caduncea than ofthe imuio of the spheres. Still she willnot be permitted to follow her naturalbent,, because it is so horribly vulgar.She will be wept over, scolded andfretted at, and any lazy, tine lady, sisteror cousin, held up as an example of gen-tility.

" To be able to play the piano incompnny is the sine qua non of maDyfoolish, fond mothers' hopes, who lookback with regret' on their osvn limitedch;inoo» of education, and are apt,'-hertikuv, to sadly overrate the varuo ofwhat ur» culled accomplishments. Play-ing the piano is doubtless a very goodthing when it is well done, and by aperson who possesses musical taste;(jut otherwise it is only a torture foras«n»itiire ear to listen to it. Jingle, jin-gle, ji.ngl.el. tbump, thump, thump!Who has not shivered and winced, andtried- to appear amiable, through theinterminable hours of a small eveningparty, whila tso;ne youthful tormentor,harassed into the display by stupidfiaends, was vigorously pounding out awiiscellanenus issoitmeut of battles andmarches, songs aud quadrillee, waltzesand operas, without the slightest notionconcerning them,, except that certainmjcyu in the piano correspond to certainDotes in th« book ?

COOLNESS—Some years ago a cele-brated doctor, a great admirer of music,was visiting the South and was pettedin society. A fashionable lady friend ofhis had two pretty daughters who hadjust finished their education at a 'board-ing school' in this c:ty. Our friend, thedoctqr, was invited to dine, and askedfor his favorite tune, and he requestedtho fair performer to play the Duke olYork's March It was performed, butwith such fine flourishes and variations,that ho saw or heard but little or anyof the Duko of York's March in it. Hewas again asked for his preference.Thinking that be was misunderstood inthe first instance he again said, in a lit-tle louder voice :

" The Duke of York's March,madam!"

It waa again performed as at first,but he still could not make out his fa-vorite, the Duke of York's March.Upon being called upon the third timo,ho spoke very b>ud :

' Duke—of—York's—March !'' Why, doctor, replied the lady, 'the

Duke of York's March has been play-ed twice to you,'

' Well, well, said the doctor withgreat coolness, 'tho young ladies haveplayed it so well I would be delightedto bear it for a third time.'
