Macon, Dccfl, IHI7 3d it vrsru, ‘ The Patriot’s D in HatUe. A l-’tter from Capt. Merkei-l, of the Army in Mexi co, gives the following touching incidents: Among the brave and good who have this tiny fallen was my triend Burwell, of the sth Infantry. He fell early in the action from u wound in die leg. ()n the slight repulse ol our troops lie was inhumanly murdered by the enemy’s lancers. His faithful dog—a beautiful pointer, had accompanied him there ; he also was wounded,— During the action he became separated from his master. After it had subsided the noble form of Burwell, manly as in life, was discovered, und beside Inin, and even lieking his face and wouuds was his poor dog : who, re gardless of his own pain, had sought hi* generous mas- I ii.• and. lumr of danger, and ihcte, u j.uu the--line field to die, This affectionate scene touched the hearts ol many. Again, after the fury of the battle was over, I saw a camp-woman, of the infantry, who come upon the field to look t >r her husband. Almost frantic with despair she ran from one to another to enquire after him, but getting no information she immediately went to search for him among the slain. Passing from body to body, she at length found him—dead. Kneeling over his corpse she < ndeavored to raise it,but finding life extinct, sin* gave utterance to shrieks and lamentations truly touching to hear. Her nil had fallen. She continued to remain on the field, (under fire of the enemy) until his lifeless body was carried off, which she followed in the deepest grief. Such is affectionate woman! Col. Hughes—Vtncna Vista* A letter appears in the Washington Union from Colo nel Geo. W. Hughes, dated at Puente Naeoinal, in which he puts in his claim to the credit of having selec ted the field of Buena Vista as a favorable battle ground upon which to encounter Santa Anna It will be re membered that abetter from captain Carleton, publish ed some time since, awarded the credit of selecting the place to general Wool. Colonel H. acted as chief of general Wool’s Topographical Staff. He states that on the 26th IX cemher, the general ordered him, in connec tion with captain Lee, of the Corps of Engineers, to se lect a camp in reference to a field of battle, at some point between Encantada and Saltillo. He avers that the general gave him no other instructions than these and never once hinted at Buena Vista, nor did any other person. On the 27th, the two Engineers, together,sur veyed the ground. Captain Lee preferred a field <ne mile beyond the San Juan de Buena Vista—colonel Hughes chose Buena Vista. Their difference was made known to the general, who after hearing views, pro and con, decided in fuvour of Buena Vista.— Kick. Times Roriily Exercise in Early Life. To fetter the active motions of children, ns soon as they have acquired the use ol their limbs, is barbarous i opposition to nature ; und to do so under a pretence of improving their minds and manners, is an insult to com mon sense.

The following extract from Jlurnap's Lectures, is worthy the attention of all young men . “ When you have sufficient intelligence to perceive what you ought to be, and judgement enough t*> dis cern what you will be, the next indispensable qualities to success are industry and perseverance. Labor is the universal law—a law in which all who have their for tunes to make—all the young aud enterprising, ought es pecially to rejoice. Labor is the grand magician, which ib secretly conveying the god things of this world from hund to hand, while mankind look on and wonder how it is done.

In a majority of instances he may nt venture substitute in the place of fortune, indus try. He may say before be examines the case, die cause of success was the same ns was observed of Julius C sar. He always succeeded because he left nothing un done which would secure success., “ Let the young mind repine at the law of labor, and the inevitable and inexorable necessity of personal ex ertion which it imposes upon him it is the most fa vorable thing to those who have their own way to make in this world, and is among the favorable circumstances by which they are surrounded. It i H the great aggrari nn Inw, which mu manner, levels all distinctions, and gives the poor man an inheritance in this world more certain; though not so extensive, as the rich, in his own talents, faeultiss, and caprices. By making all wel fare and acquisition depend on labor, all mankind are provided tor, and all monopolies dune away.’’ 1 American Farmers. Many thousand fanner# in News England large , families, pay all their debts and taxes promptly, and live independently, well clothed and comfortably housed and provided for, and lay up money, on farms of fifty ncrea. The Idea is, that these people labor severely. ‘This fa a great mistake. They have much, U-oauHe they wa-te no time. With them, M there is a place lor ©everything, and everything in its place.” Their horses and cnttl e, tools and implements, are attended to with dock-like regularity.

Home of these, having noticed the whiskey stamp on the barrel, took the liberty of inserting a spigot in th side next the wall, where it was not likely to be per reived ; and lor a week or two those who were in tic; Secret, had a jolly timeofit whenever it was their tarn to stay over night at the hotel —The time having ar rived for the doctor to return home, he went in to over* haul his snakeship, and was much surprised to find.htm entirely “out of liquor,” and in an advanced state o; decomposition He said nothing, but had him buried a* quiet as possible. The next morning, on his way home, seated on the stage-box lieside the driver, he, in the course of conver sation, related the “suckeinstance,” when the driver* was immediately taken with the most violent retchings and seemed to go into a fit of convulsions; in fact.it re quired nil the doctor’s strength to keep him from pitch ing off the box.

The advo cates of low rates have always been met with the ar gument, that the population of the South was too sparse, and the people were too little disposed to travel, nnd hence n reduction to alow rate would not prove remunerative. The correctness of their positions wu iave always doubted, although we have not heretofore met with the statistics of a-y road pa.,sing through a -parody populated country which afforded sttisfoctory proof of their error.

LABOR. Remember that Laftt/t is necessary to excellence. I his is an eternal truth, although vanity cannot he brought to believe, or indolence to heed it. VANITY ANtl INDIFFERENCE. Self conceit and indifference are unffiernlly, in an e qun! degree, to the attainment of knowledge, or the fcr- I.iatiou of an amiable character The former is more offensive, but does not more completely mar all ext si lence than the latter ;nnd it is truly deplorable that botrt flourish in Virginia as if it were their native soil. The vanity of excelling in pursuits,where excellence does not imply merit, has been the rum ut many a young man. I should, therefore, be under uppreheusions for a young fellow, who danced uncommonly well, and expect more hereafter from his heel* than from his head Female Education. It was a judicious resolution of a father, as well as a well as a most pleasing compliment to his wife, when on being asked whut he intended to do with his girls, he replied ; ** 1 intend to apprentice them all to their ex cellent mother, that they may learn the art of improving time, and I* fitted to become, like her, wives, mothers heads ol families, and useful members ol society.” Equallyjust, but bitterly painful, was the remark of the unhappy husband of a vain, thoughtless, dn-wy slattern: “It is hard to say it, but ifmy girls are to have any chance of growing up good tor anything, they mart ho he sent out of the way of their lather’s e\ ...iplc.” Gleaner Ifinfs to <*irls. A wise girl would win a iover by practising those j virtue* w hich secure admiration when personal charms have faded. A simple girl endeavors to recommend herself by the exhibition of frivolous accomplishments and mawkish sentiment, which arc as shallow ns her mind, j A good girl always respects herself, and thoirfor* al~ ways possesses the re apt eta of others.
