The Assassination of Lincoln and Be
*vsrd.
In our telegraphic department will be
found a telegram, dated at Washington,
giving the news of the assassination of.
Lincoli and Seward, at that place, d'
'the night of the 12th inst. Whether
the news is correct or not, we are ima
ble to say. It bears no date frohi any
Confederate towif or city, but is endorsed
by BAnN the, Military Superintendant
of the telegraph lines in the Confederate
States. Coninment-is unnecessa'ry.
A HAPPY Hour -In a happy home
there will be no fault finding, no over.
bearing spirit-there will be no peevish
iegs, no ftetfulness. Unkindnesg will
hot be in the heart nor on the tongue.
Oh, the tears, the sighs, the wasting of
life, and health, and strength, and time
-of all that is most to be desired in a
happy home, occasioned merely by un
- kind Words. .The.celebrated Mr ' W es
ley remarkdd 'to this effect, namely
That fretting and scolding seemei like
tearing the flesh from the bones, and
that we had no more right t9 be guilty
of this than.w6 ha4dta curse; to styair,
or steal. In a perfeely happy home
all selfishness will be removed. Even
as "Christ pleased not himself," the
members of a happy home will not seek
first to please tiemselves but to please
others.
Cheerfulness is anothnr ingredient i;
a happy home. How much does the
' sweetness emanating from a heart fraught
with love and kindness contribute to a
happy home. How attractming, how
Roothing is that cheerfulness, that is
borne on. the cc ntenance of a wife and
mother. How the parent and child, the
brot er and sister, the mistress an4
servant, dwell on those cheerful looks,
- those ebnfiding smiles that 'heam from
the eye, and burst from the inmost soul'
of those who are near and dear.- How
it hastens the return of the- father
lightens the care of the mothier.'-rendors
itmore easy for youth to resist temptation
--and drawn by cords of affection, how
it lnducesethem with loving heart to the
parental roof~.
Oh, that parents would lay this sub
