It wag a long time uiicr our una introduction, bclorc we bci'iimo well uerjiiuititetl with its meaning, indeed wo feared to pro- nouiico it lest we might bu shipwreck ed among itniunVH) ilubles. At last, liowover, we caught iu signification. Its strnKenc wore away. Jin odd look became fumiliur. Cut we do not think that "jver before to day wo Imd the courago to writo the word. In books and upccchcs, in pamphlets and nowgpitpcrB, in grave works and in light works wo Lave met the word a thousand limes. It would generally mntio its appearance in this sentenco: "Our aire is utilitarian ;" and then what changes would bo rung on the strange sounding word T Wo think now, however, that there is a great deal of Illlmbugger3 about the word ; and not a little of the same altributo in ihooo w ho so frequently uko it. We, by no nieutiH, think that our age is so very utilitarian. We have a well grounded suspicion that to call it so, is to vainly bemot. We do think that, in many, if not in most things, our age is (if we may use a word as sfangv) ornamrntiruin. Wo believe Hint the Vful tins turned servant to the orntmen'al. Ornament, we opine, is the queen, nnd utility lias become her vaKsal, especially in Education. Jo, Urrinriicnt Iihs no right to the lltrono, in the palace of Knowledge, in the Kingdom ot mind. 8ho has! usurped the position, and wc, fur one, reliel ngaitixt hernuthontr, and intend to dispute her claims.' If Ornament is so anxious tn rule, let Iter rci -n in Dress. Let her revel nmid ribbons, and flowers, dainty hats, lovely bon nets, diamond ringed hngert, bored ears.fmrled hair, waterfalls, chignons, panniers, !cc , Ac, but let her not dare to intrude herself into the domain of mind. If she does enter thero, let it ho as a pretty pago wailing on the riL'liuul monarch lnmmon-fcmie it uiut.'ii mar mai ninny 01 our Educational Institutions, Protestant and Lutholic, have entered into a eon spiracy against tha good, old King Common-Sense. (Jncen Ornament hits pluecd them under tbo spell of beauty. Around Her throne they esihor and they bring into her sorvice the minds ol most ol their pupils. '1 hoir educa tion is but a training in the osnnmen-' till. And, infatuated with tbo orna mental the rising generation looks down, with unconcealed contempt, upon llio plain and homely vtejul. This should not bo so. Yet it u so in nearly ali our Educa tional establishments. Our teachers drens up their pupils as they would so nisny dolls, in ira' and flashy ornament s.and thus dressed, they present them on graduation day, to their parents anil giinrdiiinaas per fect wonders of wisdom ; but unfortu nately the brains of the graduates, liko ljie brains of the doll babies, con tain nothing better Ihiin saw dust. They tan snout a speech, but they do not know how o think. They can tinger the piano, toy with tbo guilur, iplny tho harp, make n heautiful I'ur- 1 iciim bow, embroider n puir of slippers, daub a canvas, but they rnnnot do cently hem a handkerchief ; and as for making a cup of coflee they know as much about it as a doll. They evince the very perfection of tasto in placing the right colored flow er in tho right place on their beads ; hut tbo poor heads, alas I a vacuum without an idea. In writiiiu a lovo loiter tlicy cannot be surpassed, but to wrilea single line thst contains any en nun on aense ia a task beyond their power. Years are given to the ornamental part of education, but the uscltil, solid, practical, Is almost, if not wholly neg lected.

Euson, who is charged with the murder of Charles Smith, started for Iho purpose of anresting him. They left hero about dark and traveled all night, but very few persons in this vicinity being uwaro of their mission until a week had passed. They pro ceeded to SmUhville, Arkansas, about one hundred and thirty miles from here, representing thonisclvoa on the routo as West Tenncsseeans on the hunt of .a now homo. This was done to prevent any news roacliing Euson that he was likely to bo wanted by the Circuit court of this county, and the oflicers of the law were on bis track. When they reached the neigh borhood cf Smilbvillo they learned thut Euson lived twenty miles west of that place, and that ho bad married a niece of the Kuilicnl Sheriff of that county, and that bo belonged to that relchrslcd organization which has filled tho loyal Northern heart with joy and ailmiiatiuii, una tne stale 0; Arkunsss wtlh wcepingwnlows and orphans, anil smoking guns, known 10 lamo as ''Clayton's militia."

If it was dis covered that Ihey had invaded the sa cred soil of Arkansas with the intention of capturing nno of tbo defenders (?) of her liberties they would be arraigned before a drumhead court-martial and hung or shol for their temerity. It would not do to get in sight of their man and bat k down from tho job of , arresting him. They laid their plans and proceeded to put them into exc- cation. They reached iho bouso of , Mr. Hawkins (Eaon's fithrr in-law,) at dusk, and halloed. l.nson came out to the gate. Mr. Yale inquired if ihey would bo perinillod to stny all night there. Euson answered "Yes," and invited them lo alight. They got off their horses and went tip lo Euson and informed him that they wanted him to go wilh them. Pistols were presented at his head and be yielded. Mr. -Hawkins (Eason's falher-in luw) and Young Hawkins (his brother-in-law) wore fortunately absent at the lime. Six militiamen had been at Ihe house that evening and had left only a few minutes before Bcymer and Yale arrived.

One of tho most memorublo deeds of fortitude and heroism recorded in the annuls of war was performed by Marshal IS'ey, in the retreat from .Moscow. With a division of five thousand men ho was cut off frorn tho remainder of the French army. Kulusoff, tho liussian general, with eignty thousand men, including nu merous cavalry, and with two hun dred pieces of artillery, hod effectually blocked up his paiumgu. ' Key, with bis littlo band of half. famished soldiers, wavering in their lungum murcn, with l'UIib delect vc and dirty, and with but six pieces of cannon, rushed npnn the bostilo bat teries, and maintained tho unequal conflict, in his vain endeavor to cut iim way through tho musses of the foe, until iiiclit darkened the tlol.i Then, at midnin-ht, no ihotii'ht even of surrender, lie ordered bis troops to iui-11 npon ineir track, and murcbed buck into the w ilds of liuosiu. ith amusement the troons heard this command, which, without hesita tion, they obeyed. It was a cold, gloomy winter's night. The frozen ground was covered with snow, and the blast pierced the worn-out cloth ing of the soldiers. For two or three hours they traversed, in darkness, the snvago waste till they come to a small ri ver. Breaking tbe ice to see in whul direction the current ran, Nev said ..Tl.:. . . . m . . . ji uis stream must now into too ilnet per. Il shall bo our guide." The feeblo bund, cold, hungry and weary, atrugglcj along until they reached the Dneiper. lis broad und rapid current was clogged with float ing msoses of ice, and in one spot only, to which lame peasant Conducted them, was tho ice sufficiently firm for Ihcm to attempt a passage. And oven hero il was necessary to puss with the utmost caution. Ney, wrapped in his cloak, slept for an houriinoii tho snow while his troops passed over in single file. Tho ice bent and crackled under their feet. They then attempted to pass the wagons over, luden with iho nick and wounded. Tho frail surfaco broke, and several of the wsgons sank be neath tho ieo. A few faint cries onlv w ro heard as the sufferer disappear ed in their' cold icy sepulchre. By crossing tho Dneiper, Ney hoped, in a long delour, nguiti to reach the army. The Hussions followed this feeble bund in Its retreat, keeping beyond musket shot, but firing incessantly upon their victims with artillery, from every available eminence. Napoleon waa at Orclia, waiting with the most Intense rrnxietr to bear iiuiugn irom nvy.. j-our days bad passed without even a rumor of his falo. The whole army was looking back across the Dneiper, hoping to ealeh a glimpse of his advancing col umns, or to hour the report of bis ai uiiury At tne close ol solitude and watching, another wintry night envel oped in its gloom these re treating, woe-stricken armies. Napoleon was parlaking of a frugal supper wilh Gen erul Lclebvro when a shout of joy was heard in Ihe streets, and the words "Marshal y is safe," fcll-iipon his ear. At that moment a Polish officer entered wilh the tidings that theilar shol was a few leogucs distant, on the banks of tho river, harassed by pursu ing Cossacks, and in want of immedi ate assistance. Napoloon sprang from his chair, soiled the informant by both arms, And guzing jnt0 bis t-yes, ex cluimcd : "Is that really true t Aro yon sure of il f I have two hundreed'niillions of gold in oiy vaults at the Tuileries. I would have given them all to save Marshal Ney." Instantly Eugeno wop dispatched with five thousand men for thereaenn ot the Marshal. Kae-crlv the soldiers left their bivouac bre lor their mid night march. For six miles llicv toil. ed along the snow and over nn vn. known path, often stoppinif to listen if they could bear any sound of their lost Mends. Tho river, which was thuironly guide, flowed drearand chill si ineir sitio, encumbered by vast ma sst's of floatinir ice. Gloomr for- csts of evergreens frowned uloniiheir pnlh, and no sound but the trump of Eugene's battalion disturbed ihe si- lenec of the night. At length Eugene ordered his artil lery to bo discharrcd. as a shout to call tha uttentinn-oi bis friends. Lis. tening anxiously, they heard fur off in Iho distance, in apparent response, a feeble report of musketry. The Mar shal hud not a single piece of artillery left. Doth purlieu, however, under stood the languugo of ihcir guns, and they hastened lo meet cnc.li oilier They were soon united Oflicers and soldiora alike threw themselves into eueit other's arms, and many of those war worn veterans wept for joy. The reunited bands, forc'etAi! 01 past perils, and the still greater ones they were j ot to encounter, returnod rejoicingly to Orcha. As Marshal N.y, with soldierly simplicity and unostentation, g-ivo a retiliil of the dangers and dillitulties they bad sur mounted and the hardships he had endure., .Napoleon gras) ed bis bund and 1 111 sr .rlalized him wilh the tille of tha "bravest ol tho brave.'' Again Napoleon said, in reference lo this same achievement, in words which will never die, "Better U an army ol deer commnnded by a linn, than an ai my ot lions commanded by a deer." During this retreat an unnatural mother, who as one of the camp M lowers, weary of nursing her crying child, threw It out into the snow to perish. Ney chanced to ailness tbo inhuman deed, and liAlnir up the child, soothed il tendvrlv, and restored it lo . o luotut-r uio mi'iikv, ...MU..-K the mother to take charge of .t, Bui j soon again the woman, whose hcarl wM rending callous by mis. tv. threw lt.e cliil.1 into mo snow, ine Jiarshui aguin rescued the little one, and took it under his special protection, carry ing it for some time in his own srn.s The indignant soldiers hurled the mot hor from tho sledge, snd left her to bo picked up by the t'owsacks or to perish on tbe frozen ground.

In the pussago of lie resin a, which soon ensued, Ney again displayed bid horoin, through scenes of horror; which have rurelv been narallelod. and never surpassed, on this globe). The genius of the French engineer speedily threw two bridges across tba stream. Tho French army consisted of but 27,000 fighting men, and a dls.' organized mass of 40,000 stragglers. While the phi-ciiaicd mass were t rug. gling over these bridges, the Itussians, from the adjacent heights wore burl, ifig upon them a storm of shot and shell. Ney, taking wilh Mm but 8,000 troops, plungod into tbe densest masses of ihe tbo, drove them before him and took 0,000 prisoners. Through the long hoars of a wfn. tor's night this horrid scene of tumult and enrnago continued. Thousands were crowded from the bridges into tho icy stream, and sank with shrieks, which rose above the thunders of tbo buttle. A fearful temfsest arose "if wind . and smothering snow. The black mass of men and wagons en a, bled tho Itussians lo direct their jjruna with more unerring aim. Tho bowl, ing of tho storm, the trloom of niirht. tho flash and rour of artillery, tbe explosion of shells and whistling of bails and bullets, the cries of onset. and the shrieks of the dying, present ed a spectacle which has Lrivon - tho passage of -tbe Uoresina perhaps the most, prominent position among all the horrors which have occuircd in this lost world. Tho numbers lost have never been fully ascertained. Thousands were swept to an unknown burial. But, in tba Spring, as tho icu melted, twelvo thousand corusea were. drugged lrom tho river. . .

Tho animal mudo a desperate ebargo, upon the window of (lie establishment, scultoring display goods in every direction. By this lime the cilizeas had armed themselves for Ibo purpose of dispalchinjr the monster. The Kev.
