' The Herald's New Orleans letter slatestliat the enemy’s IOss is not more than cued'om‘t‘h that of ours. Cofbnel Curry says Port Hudson is one of the strongest places in; the world. He describes the works- as follows-guaFirst, an abattis of felled trees for at least 100 yards, then ditches 40 feet Widertt‘illt four and six feet of water; and then a glacis of about twenty feet high. leping gradual- ly to the parapet, on which is a protection for sliarjshoolers; behind this say, 100 yards is another line of works, on which our heavy and field artillery are mounted. Our correspondent does not think it will be taken except by starving out the gar- rison. One hundred and fifty of the Metropo- politan cavalry have been captured by the enemy two miles from Bank’s headquar- .ters, without a gun being fired or a sabre sdrawn. The steamers “ AnglovAmericau’ and ‘ Sykes,’ were captured by guerillas at Plaque Mines, the crews takeii pi isoners, and the boats destroyed. There is no doubt that Magruder is in the Attapakas country, with 15,000 or 320,000 men, and that he has destroyed all property. We did not move. He is also lortifying at Franklin to defend that cOuu- try, should Port Hudson fail.

A class was being OXairiined in Ancient History which answered the simple questions put to them fairly enough, but Mr Dick stated that the easiest, most practical, and most efficient .- ay to study history wait by comparing concurrent or GOIllel'nDOIaTy BVenls with one another, for example, he said, in What relation of time did Homer stand to Moses ? This was a pozer; they knew what little we can learn about Homer; but about I .. Moses of whom we can acquire every information, they were quite at fault. In other Protestant coun- tries this would be a great disgrace, in Canada we may Well blush ; but i we might resolve now that the op- pcrlunity occurs to introduce the Bible, and parents might take more interest in the education of their Children, and make it a point to see thatthey are instructed in Bible knowledge. ’ .
