A TOUCHING SCENE. —One of the most sing ular and painful incidents, in GOD'S dealings of justice towards mankind, that ever happened in om' vicinity, has just happened in the family of LEVI TAYLOR, a worthy and respectable citizen of Gran vill township, in this Coiuity. The mere facts of which are as follows : Mr. TAYLOR had two sons both hale and hearty, who on or abont the first of Sept., last, responded to the I'resident's call for men, and went cheerfully forth to endure the hardships of a soldier, and if needs be, to give their lives to their country, and this they have done. MILAN, the youngest, aged twen ty. was a member of Co. "F,' jfd Regt. Penn'a Heavy Artillery, stationed at Fortress Monroe, where lie was taken siek and died, 011 Monday. Nov. 21st, 1804, being just eleven weeks, to a day, from the time he left home. STERLING, the eldest, aged 40 was a member of Co. "G ,711 th Regt. New York Engineer Corps, and was taken siek near City l'oint and sent to Washington, where he died, 011 Saturday, November 26, 1804, being just twelve Weeks, to a day, from the time he left home. Mr. TAYLOR, did not receive the news of MILAN'S death until the 23d, and about the same time he got word that STERLING was failing. He immediately ordered MILAN'S body sent home, and also that of STERLING, in the event of his death. The body ot his youngest son arrived in the evening of the 29th, and his funeral was appointed the next day at 2 o - ■ lock, p. M,, mid the next morning Mr. TAYLOR re ceived a letter stating that his eldest son was dead : and before be bad hardly finished reading the let ter. liis body was driven up before his door. Orders were then given to have a grave dug large enough to receive both bodies : and at the appoint ed time their funeral was attended by a large con course of mourning friends ; and a very appropri ate, eloquent, and patriotic discourse was delivered !.\ Dr. SILAS E. SHEPARD, after which their remains were both interred in the same grave, where they now sleep in peace, under the guardian care of a just GOD. free from all the troubles and turmoils of of this inconstant life. The bereaved and heart stricken parents and remaining brothers and sis ters need to exercise much christian fortitude to enable tbeni patiently to endure soseverea stroke : even from the hands of a merciful GOD, who doeth all things well. WARNER A SMITH'S COMMERCIAL COLLEGE : The gentlemen who now have charge of the Com mercial College, Messrs. WARNER & SMITH, have vinced a great deal of energy and industry since they took charge of the institution. The result is that they have placed it in a position in advance of any school of the kind in the country. They have leased the large and commodious Hall and rooms known as Holden's Hall and pemiantly established their institution at this central point. The Hall is well adapted for their purposes and has been fitted up MI as to be convenient and suitable for the dif ferent departments into which tlicy have classified their Institution. Their course is very thorough and correct, and any young man who shall gradu ate from this Institution will be fully competent to take charge of the books of any banks in the coun try. We feel proud to have such a school in our midst. Our citizens should take pains to have it sustained and its influence extended. We have 110 douht that the zeal and ability of Messrs. WARNER A SMITH will lead to a triumphant success.— Ebitira Dttihl Advertiser. Send for a Circular before going elsewhere. Ad dress WARNER & SMITH. Elmira, N. Y". BRADFORD TEACHER'S ASSOCIATION con vened at the Baptist Church, Springfield Centre, Friday, Nov. lltU 1864, at 2 o'clock, p. in. Opened with reading of Scriptures and prayer by Elder Brown. In absence of President. M. S. Brown was elect ed Chairman. Reading of Minutes of last meeting called for. l ead and approved. Miss Scott, Mrs. Seaman and Prof. Clmblmck were appointed to assist Commit t.. to draw up resolutions for discussion. •(. H. Kingsbury was appointed critic. A Com mittee of three consisting of Misses Carrie Berry, Emma Tracy, and Albert Tracy were appointed to •.•■licit questions from each person in tlic house, to be answered in the evening. Report ■ if Committee on Resolutions : Risnh-td, That teachers should instil into the minds of those committed to their charge a love of Liberty, as well as a love of a Republican form of Government. tii-sotml. That gentlemen can teach a better school in the winter; therefore should be employed t • the exclusion of all ladies. Report accepted. First resolution read for dis cussion. Rev. Mr. Corss arose to speak in negative, urg ing that to instil liberty into the minds that were already full of it, was impossible. Mr. Chubbuck then spoke on the question explanatory and ap provingly. Elder Brown following in affirmative 1 strongly. Elder Mitchel spoke partly in affirmative urging the inconsistency of teachers instructing pupils both white and black of every grade and nation, to the love of a Republican government.— '1 iie difficulty .seemed to be a misunderstanding in regard to the wording of resolution. Discussion arrested as time tor adjournment having arrived : and after distributing question the meeting adjourned till 7 o'clock. Evening Session opened with singing at time ap pointed Mr. Cores then addressed the teachers <■ll tin necessity, for the well being of their schools, to uige and teach morality to their pupils. That morality, springing from the christian re ligion the mil if tr-o morality. As it would be im possible to teach them as directed, "in away in which all denominations agree," and " avoid all the points in which they disagree,"advancing good argument to prove it ; among which was, that one could not teach or advance morality with exhibit ing his own doctrine or belief. As parents would furnish semi infidel reading for their children, in the form of daily papers, common literature, nov els and the like : and with this great influence to work against, teaching by exhortative morality would be uphill business. Taking this into con sideration a good example from the teacher would go further to secure morality in pupils so far as he is concerned. The subject of the lecture was sug gested to the mind of the speaker, from u question given him to answer at the Athens Institute this fall, viz : YVhat is the best way of teaching religion in Schools ? The whole lecture was very instructive and we wish we could give it verbatim. Music. Miss. Scat's essay which then followed was excellent.— answering of questions written and assigned in af ternoon was next in order. After which a patriot ic snug was sung and meeting adjourned after so liciting a copy of lecture and essay for publication. Saturday Morning, 9:30, Session opened with prayer by the Rev. Mr. Brown.

My symptoms were a dry, ho king cough, which I had for several years, with night sweats and frequent, .-evere bleeding of the lung-. I was so very weak that I could attend to no business, and bad pain almost constantly through my breast and shoulders. About four years ago my brother, who resides in Philadelphia told me he be lieved your medicine would cure me, and I commenced its use. 1 was aware that my disease had gone so far that I could uot expect to be cured in a few day -, but in a short time 1 felt much better, so much so that I wa< abt- to attend to my business ; and alter continuing its use for several months, 1 recovered my health ana strength perfectly. 1 am convinced that this i- not a mere trancieut relief but a complete aud permanent cure, as 1 have been giad ually growing stronger ever since, and 1 attribute it - ely to your PINK TREK TAR CORDIAL, ior I know I ha; I must have gone to ray gr.ve years ago. if 1 had , used your great medicine. 1 would say to th ise who are similarly afflicted—especially in cases like mine, -.vi. te the di.-e.ise has run : i a 1 :ig time, that although ■ m b ttte will relieve, it will not effect a cure ; 1..: 1 pei severing in its use, I he ieve it will restore you to health, it yon ara not beyond the power of medicine.
