We regret to hear that chunking buildings with stones, breaking wiodowe and endangering wholly nnoflending persons, not even excepting ladies, has become altogether too prevalent among some of the boys in town, who ought to know better and to do better. Surely their parents ought to take this matter in band. Boys Inclined to be rowdy think tach conduct makes them appear quite manly. Thfy could make do greater mistake. It makes them any thing eUs. Wa do trust that those having the con trol of the rising generation will see to it for their own future peace as well as the good ot tbeir children, that a stop is put to such things. Complaint we lean has been made to His Ilooor, tbe Wtyor, and he requests as to say that the utmost rigor of the law will be enforced againat all oSendcrs, so that the peace aad quiet of tbe town, and the com fort of citizens may not be interrupted by thoughtless or evil di?poeed boys. - Kti-o Corns- We have always beard that it was rather an uncertain bn? iness to buy ground cofTee, as tie cUcccj.for successful adulteration were so moch greater tlna cen the nrvrround berry waa purebased.

" " Tbe Frk of Thlnft, There are certaio things tbt people sc and bave bafora them tLe priolcd ratrs, and upoo tlese It fs very difficult to get ao advance. Take fur Instance news papers, l ie cost of paper and tbe difficulty of obtain ing it is such as to Lave compelled tbe discontinuance of some papers, the redaction of tbe size of others, the publication of others 00 a half sheet. Inks are higher. Fuel is much higher. Lubricating oil is higher. Pot ssbe lo make lye for watbirg forma ia higher, aod no doubt tbey will be more so. We have to pay caab. for everything, as everybody elte bas, and everything we pay for ia higher, yet tf we, represented by A & B, were to charge a mercantile firm, repreeetiied by C k D, doable price for adver tising or newapspers, wby C k D would kick up thunder io general and break things in particular, and ytt if we, represented by A B, go lo buy of the mercantile firm, OA D, we will, on ao average, bave to pay for tea, sugar, ccflre, or dry goods, not moch aodrr three times former priera, and we may kick np thunder if we like, but can't help ourselves. Queer, ian'4 it f Things don't quite find tbeir level, do tbey f Well, we won't moralize much more, neither will we preach. . Preaching won't pay. Tbey only give preach ers fifty dollars a month in tbe Confederate army, and we therefore were forced to withdraw tbe tender of our services in the chaplaincy line. But we do say this. A daily paper is worth six dollars a year to any 011$ man. Don t, by beeging or borrowing, try to get two men's reading for - that sum. Let each rosn bave one for himself so that tbe printers may live and tbe Edi tors keep above ground, and (bat tbe days of tbe reader may be long npon tbe land. Yes! Sklllicl k-hwr. The man who can malt a good gun to ahoot with, would really be doing better aervioe by stsying at home and making guns, than by going off to the wars to shoot with oni gun, while so many thousands are waiting for thousands of guns. Skilled workmen 00 railroad work would also serve the cause more esuentlalty at work in tbeir shops than tbey can do in camp, for work must be done to keep the machinery of transportation in order. Without trans portation tbe army cannot be supplied nor kept efficient, and without skilled workmen to e to tbe repairs aod efficiency of tbe locomotives and rolling stock, transpor tation cannot be satiafactorily carried on. ' Bo lo many otber departments. We msy think, aod do think that this struggle cannot last over a second winter. But this Is only Minting it is not knowing. If tbe wsr is to be a long wsr we most go to work at once to develope our manufacturing and productive in dustry or suffer. We need not calculate with any con fidence npon European Intervention J for our own part, we do not. Wo most wrestle this thing out aod we must put our houses In order so that we may do so with effect, and bring tbe strnggle to a triumphant close, and at that close be truly Independent. ' ttjr Messrs. Gilbert k Darr, of the Sumto (4. C.) Watchman, at tbe earnest n quest of their fullow-vitiaeus of that District, bave consented to postpone for the present tbeir determination to suspend tbe issue of tbeir paper lo order that tbey themselves might go to the wars. Tbe publication will go on under many difllcul tics by reason of tbe loss of bands, gone to the wars.

The Wat J iff. '1 HOraoi'a Mas Fight. A cor respondent of the St. Louis Democrat, describing tbe engagement at Frederick town, says t And let os do justice to tbe eoemy. They fought well and bravely when all tbe circumstances are con sidered. Some of tbe enemy performed deeds of heroism, worth v of a better cause. . One of their cannon waa placed in tbe woods, near tbe mouth of tbe lane, and waa vigorously worked. ' AS our itrocs advanced, tney picked ooe after another of the runners tff till at last but a single one waa left, lie cootinned his work of loading and firing as fast as be conld, nothing daunted. He seemed utterly oblivious to everything but tbe work before him, ard made motions towards retreat. At last be fell at bis post, bravely and heroically. ElTlAOBDIIABT L'HABGB AOAIXST A (JtSJUB BiaO- viaa. Tbe little town ol Brnchaal, Baden, where Os car Becker waa tried for his attempt on tbe lile ot the King of Prussia, nas ioat been thrown into excitement nearly equal to that of the Becker case, by tbe trial of a lady ot bign rank tbe liaronesa da Kaumbacn 00 a charge of attempting to poison ber husband. The trial occupied tbe sittings of the Assize Court at Brnch saf during tbe 26th, 27tn, and 28tb of September, kladanie de Ba urn bach la a lady 42 years of are. and is described at of a distinguished and noble snein.j with ptde, handsome face. She was accompanied in tbe Court by ber dautnter. 1 be charge against tn Baroness waa that abe bad attempted to take the lire of ber husband by mixing quantities of phosphorus with' tbe sugar usually pnt ia bis warmed beer, which she waa in tbe babit of having served to him. A singular peculiarity in tbe case was, that only some of tbe ser vsnts ot the Baroness had set suspicion oa foot and ta ken the steps which led to tbe rjrooecdinga. Tbe Baron Baumbach bad never believed tbe charge, and in hie examination before tbe Court repelled all idea of a sus picion ot his wife's innocence with the ntmost emotion. Some trifling quarrels betwee tbe married pair ap peared to have first given rise to any suspicions. II waa also hinted that tbe baron bad endeavored to form an improper relation with a lady of rank, an acquaint ance of his wife's, and that this circumstance bad awak ened the baroness's jealousy. This allegation, however, was warmly denied by the Baron and by several wit nesses. The jury only deliberated five minutes, aod then returned a verdict of not guilty, which was received with loud applauas in a densely crowded court Tbe Baron de Baumbach immediately rushed to his wife and embraced ber, aod tbe scene which took place is de scribed as singularly affecting. - Weirs thit orr Shot. Dr. Parker, of Chatta nooga, Teen, who was in tbe battle of Leesburg, writes : I can cot think that tbey will again attack oa, or give us a chance to make a charge on them ; it is im possible for them to stand a charge, and whenever such command is givm they take to tbeir heels.

"" ' Frost the Richmond Enquirer. Lag Tauokis. A Federal jnd.a in Philadelphia la reported by telegraph to have said, that any further pro ceeding in tbe case of the Southern privateenmeo, now. on trial in that eiiy, would be farcical, but the proba bilities are, that if the Llncola government sba.1 dare lo carry out its avowed purpose of sxeculiog'tkese prison ers as pirates, tbe proceedings consequent upon such an act of brutal bate, will be so deeply tragical as to ren der it historically memorable. It will be seen from tbe official correspondence, which we suhjoio, that our gov ernment is resolute in its determination to apply tbefrx talumu ia vindication of justice and of humanity, both of which would be wantonly outraged in the judicial murder of tbeee Southern eeanrn, and to vitit upon tbe Northern officers, selected for that purpose, precisely tbe same fata Which shall be meted out to our mn. Life for life, on a for man. That this purpose of our government will be carried out fully and promptly, no one who reads tbe eorrespoDdtoce below, ran doubt Tbe fiat Is pronounced, tbe victim lor such tbey are to the vindictive spirit of tbeir own government are selected, and tbe executioner but waits the signal wbicb Lincoln shall give to perform bis duty. For our part, we shall regret if this act of just, but neoesssry retaliation be forced npon tbe Confederation, We had hoped, notwithstanding tbe bitter spirit which bss characterized the Northern leaders in this wai tbat it might be conducted in accordance with tbe recog nised rake of civilized warfare, and with tbs sentiment ot a Christian age ; but tbe hope has not been realized, and we may be compelled to resort to measures of re taliatory juatict, which we would gladly see avoided if possible. .

It fs stated tbat the eircumstanoe has occasiooed the liveliest concern io tbe most distinguished households in the land, and tbat no pains have been spared to make representations in tbe quarter to wbicb aa appeal nvgbt be supposed to bare some weight. Tbat royal alliances, ss at present conducted, abould U-rminate unhappily, cannot be a matter of aorpriss ; but the 1'rince of Prussia, from bis youth aod apparent frankness aod candor, gave prom ise of proving sn exception to tbe general rule (I Utrmun Princes in tb respect. I remember having been present when fJis Uoyal Highness made a speech in reply to an address ot congratulation from the Man chester Chamber of Commerce, la wbicb be stated wilb extraordinary empbaaia, and io very fair English, tbat it would be the study of bis life to contribute as much as possible to tbo happiness of tbe Princess Uoyal, and tbns establish a claim upon tbe good will and affections of the Eoglisb people I The cotton lords cheered this chivalrous declaration, and pronounced tbe young gentleman a M brick." Home time ago it was statu! tbat tbe prince bad been guilty of actual violence to hia fragile wife; this rosy have been, aod we hope was, aa exaggerati-m, but it is certain a very severe quarnl Uxk place between tbe royal couple, and tbat tbe princess visit to Enzland had reierenoc to tbe aflair. Four hundred years ago this would bave 1 een tuffijient cause for war between tbe parties, their subjects counting for nothing except ia so far ss tbey were good soldiers and psid taxes. Hut now sven a divorce would not provoke such a reprisal. This time last year ibe Prince of Wales waa with us, feted and honored. By tbe last accounts be was at Cologne "tbo city of smells and odors vile" where be met with no less brilliant a reception tban here, surely as much adulation must ultimately spoil even tbe best edu cated youtn.
