M. LITERARY INSTITUTE. On Tuesday evening last, Mr. Az. Trudelle, EeelL, delivered at the above Institute a highly interesting aud instructive lecture on the “ Laws of Rome.” In treating his subject he showed very clearly that true liberty had no existence in Pagan Rome or Greece, but that it had its origin in the teaching of the Gospel, and was developed from the commencement of Christianity by the Church, as exemplified in the policy of the Popes, who have at all times labored for the cause of true civilization and liberty. According to the learned lecturer, the Lberty of Garibaldi, Mazzi, Victor Emmanuel, and the moderna demagogues, consisted in the power of despoiling their neigh- bours of their property, imprisoning and assassi- uating those who ventured to differ from them- selves, and otherwise trampling under foot the laws of God and man. After the lecture an annnated discussion tovk place. On Wednesday evening next, Hon. FE.

A THRILLING INCIDENT OF THE WAR. In one of our beautiful suburban ceme- teries was employed, up to a week ago, a venerable man. For a number of years past he has prepared the last restiag place for those called from among us. Though poor, | he raised four gallant boys, giving to each of them a moderate education and a good trade. The two elder went five years ago to New Orleans, where prosperity attended their in- dustry. The two younger brothers remained with their father. George and Frederick were | their names. ‘The latter is but seventeen iyears of age. When the war broke ont, | both left their employment and enlisted. |The elder brothers had constantly written |bome, and frequently presents accompanied ‘their letters. At the battle of Fredericks- burg, in the very front of the line, at the |charch upon the rifle pits at the back of the town, were the boys Frederick and George. A sortie was made by the rebel riflemen upon | the retreating Federals, and among those who dropped were ihe two boys, the youngest son ‘of the old grave-digger. A minie ball had | pierced the bodies of each. _ The rebel soldiers, whose weapons had done , the deed, were clad in rags of linsey.
