SMITH, County Superintendent. For the Educational Column. Hints on Teaching Reading. I feel perfectly safe in assuming that ev ery teacher who is worthy of his position of trust, is desirous of learniug modes of government and instruction, by which his efforts ujay be rendered most successful. With this confidence, I wish to ask the earnest attention of teachers to a subjeet which is of real importance and of no j little interest to all the intelligent friends j of common schools. As a general fact there is not pearly enough drilling in schools; there is a fev erish desire to advance scholars rapidly, thereby to gain a brilliant reputation ; or there is an indifference or incapacity, which from idleness or ignorance neglects the ne cessary work. There is almost universal j need of more drilling, more thorough at tention to details, more intelligent use of i illustrations, definitions and questions. — ■ Teachers can hardly rid themselves of the notion that the true test ol scholarship is j .phat op.e has gone oyer, ap.d not wfiat one ! knows. 'Through the book'has a fatally charming sound, even to teachers other wise very sensible. It is only repeating j what every teacher ha§ said scores of times, ; to assert that it is infinitely better to train pupils to value excellence of understanding j than to allow them to form the habit of echoing what the author says, however readily, without ftQpjprebewfion of tfie principle ip,culcated- I wisfi (bo apply this to reading. Ido not haserfi in expressing the convic tion that iff more than half tfi r e schools of this county scholars not only learn nothing beneficial in regard to reading, but actually acquire habits that are of positive and last- I ing injury. In very few instances do teach i ers make it their study and effort to guide . their scholars more judiciously through the ' vocal and intellectual discipline necessary NOVEMBER |O, 1861. liq good readers. It is not. an P r -ctice with teachers, to re pupils to commit to memory en in the preliminary •s, and read over the lllustra :s. This is done with a vague vas the author's design to have les and examples used, and no of accomplishing that desigp ' elf. In the ordinary reading is customary for the pupils to yersiP, one alter another, with rther instruction than that cer should be differently pronoun t unfrequently even this infini icism is omitted. No effort is jart a clearer pom prehension of id pupils in giving fuller, nicer by a better use of inflections, ' d modulation. •aI and inevitable result is, that o interest in the reading oxer pride in acquitting themselves | crec. ecome careless, expressionless repea words, but not reatlers. And teacher , find the exercise distasteful; ■ they are - itisfied with their neglect, and vainly wish Jieir pujtils would read better. I The simple and o!y remedy fur this gen- ; cral and crying evil is drilling. Teachers ' must address themselves to the subject in good earnest, must carefully and thorough ly study the best treatises they can procure which relate to education; if nothing else is accessible, they should study the intro duction to any good series of readers and gain all the knowledge desirable from that source. They should practice the exam ples given, repeating theui until perfectly able to exemplify to a class the idea which the author wished to convey. They should be careful to have the lessons well studied, both by their scholars, and by themselves, unless they are fully competent to instruct without such preparation, and then they should have every sentence well read be fore proceeding to the sentence following. Not merely errors of accent, aud omission or insertions of words, should be correct ed ; but defective inflection, and faulty em phasis and imperfect modulation, should be pointed out, and the correct rendering of the passage should be given by the teacher, then by the pupils. No anxiety to finish a lesson must he permitted to in terfere with the necessary drilling. Tl)js is a subject requiring immediate and earnest attention from every teacher, aud I cannot too urgently request all teach ers who read this article, to use every ef fort to improve the reading of their pupils. They yyj.ll find this labor a little arduous at first, but it suitriy will he rewarded with success ; if not by better reading, the con scientious effort will be its own rich re ward. 8. ffiOMLMELMOIII What and Where is Heaven—and Oth er Reflections. Extract from a Sermon to/ the Rev. E. F. APas tor of Sorth B>'ao4 Street Presbyterian Church f Phila. The preacher read the whole of the 12th chapter of Second Corinthians, of which verses 2, 3, and 4 constituted hi. text, com menting as he proceeded. These exposi tory introductory readings, when done with ability, constitute a most profitable and im portant part of divine services, and should be generally adopted. The words of his text proper were as follows : 4 1 knew a man above fourteen years ago, whether in the bo<iy I cannot telj; u-hettiejr out of th£ body f cannot tell"; Godknowetli: such an one caught up to the third heaven. And I knew such a man, whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell; God knoweth : how that he was caught up into Paradise, and heard unspeakable tfOfds, tj'hich it is not lawful for a man to titter.' Mr. Adams, in commencing, said he hoped there would be something practicable in his sermon, though there would be in it some speculation. His purpose in select ing this theme was to consider (he abode of holiness in the Juturc life, and the obli gations which it suggested to the mind of Christians. The first division of his subject was the following interrogatory, WHAT AND WHERE IS HEAVEN ? In answering this, he said it could not be denied that our ideas in this matter were extremely vague. There was nothing fixed in its contemplation ; it was stretched out before the spiritual eye like a lovely land scape, overshadowed by a mist of glory- This much, however, he held to be demons trable : that heaven was not merely a state, but a place. In the philosophy of the Jews there had been three heavens —to which Paul had probably reference in the text, i The first was the surrounding atmosphere, I in which birds fly; the second was thesid j ereal heavens, the region of the stars; and the third was the heaven of heaven.;, the abode of the Eternal. Paradise and the third heaven were the same ? the heaven ! where Jesus had asceudc.4 frpfn the cross. That it was a locality, was established by the word of the Saviour to His disciples, ' ' I go to prepare a place for you,' &c. Again, the speaker argued that heav en jyas a locality necessarily, from the fact that its inhabitants are to have bodies. — He held, moreover, that the 60ul in its disembodied state, even before the resurrec : tion, could not be contemplated in utter i | and complete isolation from matter. Some j 1 persons, he knew, were startled at the idea of the eternity of matter. Yet lajlu was material, aud heaven was represented as filled with light. Nor was there a single expression in the Scriptures to prove the non eternity of matter. Matter was not necessarily contaminating. When Adam was in his holy (innocent) state, the place of his dwelling had been material. Iu the description of what heaven is, and what it is not, in its moral aspectj the speaker was eloquent, evincing extraordin ary imaginative and lingual powers. Having disposed of the what, he next proceeded to consider the where of the in terrogatory. It was, lie said, natural for the mind to long to know gr/j it her departed friends and loved ones had gone. Somehow or other, we were impressed by instinct and education that heaven was far off'—a place very remote from the earth ; and yet lie did not doubt that if we had eyes to see thepi, we should discover spiritual beings, god and bad, mingling around us in prox- iinity to t hose messengers of love sent forth to 4 minister to those who are called to be heirs of salvation albeit, the heaven where Christ dwells was doubtless the special abode of the latter. This heaven we must believe was above all other heavens. We must of course keep in view the fact that above and below , on this planet, cr any oth er, ire relative terms. Ey f up' was simply meant distance away from the earth on a line drawn from its centre; and by the word down was meant the exact opposite, or distance towards its centre. The beautiful astronomical theory which is gradually approximating positive demon stration —-that all the various systems of the uuiverse revolve around one common centre —was taken up by Mr. Adams at this point, presented in its peculiar bear ing upon the subject under discussion. If it were true that the central orb bore a similar relation iu magnitude to all the bodies revolving arouud it, which the sun of oyir system sustained to the planets and satellites—being five hundred times great er in bulk than all the latter combined — that great central lqgiiriary would indeed constitute a fitting world for the abode of the Eternal. This thought, he held, was one of overwhelming sublimity, and the discoveries of science tended to confirm its truth. The motion of certain fixed stars, for example, could not be explained upon any other grounds. The star Arcturus bad within the last seventy years been found to vary its position about three minutes and thirty seconds, arid the noted variation of other bodies tended alike to show that there is a universal motion of the stars. So deep ly was the preacher impressed with the correctness of the central-heaven idea as the capital of die universe, that he SSSUJ)ied it to have been the heaven into which the Apostle Paul had been mysteriously caught up when he heard those words which it not possible lor a man to utter. Under the second head of his discourse | was considered the blessedness of a more distinct apprehension of heaven in this liie. The third part was devoted to an exam ination of the discijdine which Christians need who entertain these views of the mis sion which awaits them. Paul, for exam ple, after having his mind enlightened in this matter by a heavenly vision, had giv en to him ' a messenger of affliction.' And the same discipline was necesary for the wisest and most beneficent purpose. With out this, we should be rendered utterly un fit for our earthly duties. In the next place, the preacher consid ered the influence which such special views ought to have upon the subsequent course of those who receive them, in this life.— Under this head the preacher administered a severe rebuke to the pretensions of mod ern spiritualism. Paul had not felt called upon to boast of having received a new revelation after his remarkable visjon.— Fourteen years had elapsed before he ever mentioned it; and then it was not to pro claim a means of intercourse between the living and the dead. On the other hand, Paul had discountenanced the idea that any kind of ministration to his brethren in the body, after his own separation from it # was possible; hence his allegation that 'to : remain with you is more profitab e.' And ; surely, if so good a man as Paul could not 1 hold intercourse with the living, after his j departure to anot" er sphere, it was not I probable that others were admitted to such j ! a privilege, and he, therefore, proclaimed : boldly, that if there cas any such connec- j tiqn between the living apd the dead, it | was infernal, for it was by God forbiddep. , His final thought was, that by contrast, if heaven was a place, the abode of the lost must also be a locality—in which souls would not only be rendered wretched by their own history and memories, but by i their horrible surroundings. One was a ! palace, the other a prison—a rayless tomb; j in one the inhabitants rejoiced ; intheoth- , er they wept; in one there was endless bliss; in the other sadness aod woe unspeak- , able; above was heaven, below was hell.— who heard him were on their way either to one of these or the other, and ev ery one carried in his own heart the anw&er to this momentous question : 'Am I a be liever in Jesus as my Saviour, or am I not ?' ®a?*Our customs and habits are like the ruts iu roads. The wheels of life settle in to them, and we jog along through the mire, because it is too much trouble to get out of them. NEWS FROM THE GREAT FLEET. The Official Despatches- The following are the official despatches t<> the Navy Department: UNITED STATES FLAG Sine W ARASII, ) Orr HILTON HEAD, !\>KT ROYAL HARBOR. • November Oth. IS6I. ) lion. Gideon Welles, Secretary <j the A a cy: Sir —The Government having determined to seize and occupy one or more important points upon our coast, where our squadr >u might find shelter, possess a depot and afford pfutgiqiyp to loyal citizens, coin- ; mitted to tuy discretion the selection from among those places which it thought most ! available and desirable for these purposes. After mature deliberation, aided by the pro fessional knowledge and great intelligence of th* Assistant Secretary, Mr, Fox, and upon j taking into cmsiderati n the magnitude to , which the joint naval and military expedition j had been extended, to which you have called my attention, I came to the conclusion that the original intentions of the department, if , first carried out, would fall short of the ex- , pectfttions of the country arid of the capabili j ties of the expedition, while Port Royal, I thought, would meet both in a high degreo. i therefore submitted to Brigadier General Sherman, commanding the military part of the expedition, this modification of our earji est matured plans, and had the satisfaction to receive his full concurrence, though he and the commanders of the very justly laid great stress upon the necessity, if possi ble, of getting this frigate into the harbor of Port Royal. On Tuesday, 29th October, the fleet under my command left Hampton Roads, and with the army transports numbered filty vessels. On the day previous I had despatched the coal vessels, twenty five in all, under convoy of the Vandalia, Commander llaggerty, to rendezvous off Savannah, not wishing to give the true points. The weather had beeu uu settled iu Hampton Roads, though it promis ed well when we sailed, but off llutteras it j blew hard. Some ships got into the breakers, and two struck, bpt without injury. On Friday, Ist November, the rough weath er soon increased into a gale, and vre had to encounter one of great violence from the southeast, a portion of which approached to a hurricane. The lleet was utterlv dispersed, and on Saturday morning oue sail only was in sight from the deck of the Wabash. On the following day the weather ujodera ted, and the steamers and ships began to re appear. Orders, not to be opened except in ense of separation, were furnished to all the men-of war by mysglf, and to the transports by Brigadier General Sherman. As the vessels rejoined reports came of dis asters. I expected to hear of many, but when the severity of the gale and the character of the vessels are considered, we have oply cause for great thankfulness. In reference to the men of war, the Isaae Smith, a most efficient and well armed vessel for the class purchased, but not intended to encounter cuoh sea and wind, had to throw her formidable battery overboard to keep from foundering, but thus relieved, Lieut. Coniman ding Nicholson was enabled to go to the as sistun.ee of the chartered steamer Governor, then in a very dangerous condition, and on board of which was our fine battaiion of ma rines, under Major Reynolds. They were finally rescued by Capt. Ringgold in the Sa bine under difijcult circumstances, soon after which the Governor went down, and I believe seven of the marines were drowned by their own imprudence. Lieut. Commanding Smith's conduct in the Isaac Smith has met with uiy warm commen dation. The Peerless, transport, Spa sinking con ' dition, was met by the Mohican, Commander ' Gordon, and all the people on board, twenty six in number, were saved under very perilous i circumstances, in which Lieut. 11. W. Miller was very favorably noticed by his commander. | On passing Charleston I sent in the Seneca, j Lieut. Commanding Amman, to direct Oapt. i Lardner to join me with the steamer Susque ; hanna off" Port Royal without delay. On Monday, at eight o'clock in the morn ing, I anchored off the bar with some twenty five vessels in company, many more being in sight. The department is aware that all the aids to navigation bad been removed, and the bar lies ten miles seaward, with no features on the shore line with sufficient prominence to make any bearings reliable. But, to the skill j of Commander Davis, the Fleet Captain, and , Mr. Boutelle. the able assistant of the coast ! survey, in charge of the steamer Vixen, the : channel was immediately found, sounded out ; and buoyed. By three o'clock I received assurances from ■ Capt. Davis that I could send forward the lighter transports, those under eighteen feet. ( with all the gunboats, which was immediately . done, and before dark they were securely anchored in the roadstead of Port Royal, ! South Carolina. ! The gunboats almost immediately opened ! their batteries upon two or three Rebel steam- j ers, under CommodoreTatnall, Instantly chas ing bin> under the shelter of their batteries. In the morning Commander John Rogers, of the United States steamer Fjag, temporar ily on board this ship, and acting on my Staff, accompanied Brigadier Gen. Wright, in the gunboat Ottowa, Lieutenant Commanding Nicholson, made a reconnoissance in force, I and drew he are of the batteries on Hilton i Head and Bay Point, sufficiently to show that j the fortifications were works of strength and i scientifically constructed. In the evening of j Monday Capt. Davis and Mr. Boutelle report i ed water enough for the Wabash to enter in. The responsibility of hazarding so noble a frigate was not a light one. Over a prolong ed bar of over two miles there was but a foot | or two of water to opare, and the fall and rise of the tide is such that if she had grounded i she would have sustained most serious injury ! from straining, if not probably lost, 100 ' much, however, was at stake to hesitate, and 1 the result was entirely successful. On the morning of Tuesday the Wabash ! crossed the bar, followed closely by the frigate | Susquehanna, the Atlantic, Yanderbilt and I other transports of deef dralt, and on run New Series—Vol. XVI, No. 4. ning through that portion of the fleet already in, the safe passage of this great ship over U;o bar was hailed by gratifying cheers from the crowded vessels. We anchored and immediately commenced preparing the ship for action, but the delay of planting buoys, particularly on the Fishing Ileef, a dangerous shoal wo bad to avoid, ren dered the hour late before it was possible to move with the attacking squadron. In ou; anxiety to get the outline of the forts before dark we stood in too near this shoal and the ship grounded. Hy the time she was gotten off it was too late in my judgment to proceed, and I made a signal for the squadron to att chor out of gunshot front the enemy. 'j'o day the wind blows a gale from tho southward and eastward, and the attack is unavoidably postponed. I have the honor to be sir. Respectfully your obedient servant. S. F.

TP reconnuisance of yesterday made us acquainted with the superiority of Fort \\ al ker, and to that 1 directed my special efforts, engaging it at a distance of first eight hun dred yards, and afterwards six. But the plan oj attack brought the squadron sufficiently neat- Fort Beauregard to receive its fire and the ships were frequently lighting the batteries on both sides at the same time. The action was begun on my part at twen ty-six minutes past nine, and at half past two the American ensign was hoisted on the flog stajf of Fort I father, and this morning at sunrise on that of Fort Beauregard. The defeat of the enemy terminated in their utter rout and confusion ; their quarters and encampments were abandoned without any attempt tu carry away either public or private property. The ground over which they fled was strewn I with the arms of private soldiers, and officers j retired in too much haste to submit to the I encumbrance of their swords. Landing my marines and a company of seamen, I took possession of the deserted ground and held the fort at Hilton Head ti' 1 the arrival of Gen. Sherman, to whom 1 had the honor to transfer its occupation. We captured forty three pieces of cannon; most of them are of the heaviest calibre and of most improved description. The bearer of these despatches will have the honor to carry with him the captured flags and two small brass field pieces lately belonging to the State of South Carolina, which are sent bomo as suitable trophies of the success of the day.
