‘ alk, Tuesday, Jan. 20. 1863.
[We copy from the Brooklyn Eagle, the
following report of :1 Lecture, delivered at
the Athenreum, in that city, by the REv. A.
A. WILLITs. Mr. W. is one of the inost
popular, Lecturers of the day, and we are
glad to announce that arrangements are be-
ing made to get him to deliver one Of his
best Lectures, in this town, some evening
this month, due notice of which will be
giveanDSJ
He did not know but that some might
consider it presumption on his part to
launch his little boat in the wake of the
mighty steamer which preceeded him (Dr.
Storrs);on the track of the big ship which
was to, fellow him(Dr.Vintou)but all sorts
of c'aftventu're into troubled waters and
those that'draw least water get along
better. (Applause) It was his purpose
tonight to submit a few thoughts upon
that most domestic institution called
HonELngiye a few hints about keeping
slimeyderpents out of this Eden HOME, and
how to preserve it fragrant as gales waf-
ted from-Araby the blest.
“That tender emotions are stirred up
\vithinfu,’ by'r'that word “Home!” How
many do ightful memories are stirred up
within .usl 0f the home of our manhood
where bright eyes watch our coming and
look brighter when we come—Of that
older home _ of our childhood, where a
motherdwatched over 11s with tender care,
where a kind father brought us out and
motions acquainted with nature, where
we enjoyed the companionship of broth-
ers audsistersl He that has not known
the joys,-is most, unfortunate. His friends
around him needed no argument to con-
vince them that the influences of home
are most powerful—they had it in their
own experience. These impressions re-
main, while others, which are later pass
away: Home is to the social system what
the heart is to the physical system, and
its influence upon the nation will be be-
nign or baleful according to the purity
of thefountain. There never was a day
when the domestic institution required to
be watched with so much vigilance.
The most diabolical means are at work
to break dOWU the fence of that garden
of beauty and happiness. Our inter-
course with foreigners, the creeping in of
foreign habits, our haste to acquire rich-
es, are all blowing in upon us; and then
there is a philosophy, so called, of which
France is the mother, endeavoring to
breakup the ‘single family arrangements.’
The,“single family arrangements” are
declared by the writers of the French
school-to be “hostile to the cultivation in
children of the superior and ennobliug iii-
flueanes of nature.” Pity George Wash-
ingtgugwas not brought up in one of these
schools of modern philosophy 1 Such
things cannot grow in the little garden
pate,h,f»but in the wide common communi-
ties will flourish under the sun of philos-
ophy! Like the Yankee invention of ”per-
petual-117100011,” it was all very complete,
but. wouldn’t go! (Laughter and applause.
instead of directly attacking the fam-
ily institution, however, they are reduc-
ing the marriage relation to a more con-
tract :1 copartnery—nnd are particular-
ly anxious for the dissolution. They
want the Legislature to frame such a law
of divorce as will render the marriage tie
a mere cobWeb ligature that can be set
aside at wiill Be on the alert against
their insidious approahes. Keep every
book breathing such vile teachings out of
your family, as you would arsenic from
the water which your children drink.
W here would the love of country be with-
out the love of home, and where the love
of home without the marriage tie? Let
11s show these infidels that in this coun-
try, at least, it shall not be profaned.
(Applause)
There is very little cause for fear if the
citadélbe right ; allow no enemy to en-
ter ‘t‘liere. Beware of the contenders for
woman’s rights, the declaimers against
the‘tyranny of husbands. They want to
get thehouse divided against itself, and
then it will be easy to divide the family.
Tog‘ive Woman her sc-called rights would
be lfoiscnttle the ship to drown the mice
which crept into her. God has given us
the family institution, and to the domes-
tic institution He has given :1 head. Man
is the head of the wife and the govern-
Inentof the family is devolved upon him ;
put the Same authority which thus en-
dow-ed him has given us guides and set
checks. upon his authority, so that it shall
not get to tyranny. As Christ is the head
of the Church, :0 is man ihe head of the
family—to rule in love and kindly offices.
Totliis no lady will object. An ancient
writer has remarked tlirf when Adam
sought to throw the blame upon his wife,
lie'did not say “the woman 'l‘hon gavest
lol'b'chugt'l/L me.” Or as Patrick Henry so
beautifully shapes it——“VVom:in was not
m'd'de'o'l'It of man's head, that she might
govern, nor out Of his feet, that she should
be‘jhis slave ; but out of his side, to be
neggt his heart, that he minght love and
cherish her.” (Applause) Such condi-
ti us of domestic rule no true woman
w _‘ hesitate to submit to.
Tibthe lecturer’s mind there was noth-
ing Better than going through life in
sweet companionship. What a contrast
to see a woman mount the box and drive
the family. A gentleman coming down
the North River, on the steamer, noticed
a big; domineering woman, supervising
her husband very strictly ; the husband
wasa lean, lanky, diminutive man, toil/i
arbild in his arms, the very picture of
resignation. The child happening to cry,
the. angry wife accosted bim——-“What a
good—for-nothing thing you are ; if. I had
known'as much, I would not have fetched
yea”, He was shut up 11 ft or that ; the
idea'of being left at home frightened-him!
"The lecturer now remarked with some
asperity upon the precocity of the young
masters and misses of our day. Children
of twelve speak with more authority upon
every conceivable topic than men of
twenty would in other days, and boys of
fifteen haVe left their fathers so far he-
hind as never to think of looking back at
the “ old fogies.” As the age HLIVZIIICCS
perhaps the disagreeable necessity of be-
111g" children at all will be done away
With' (Great laughter.) Young men
findmaidens will emerge as Minerva did
from: the head of Jupiter, with “ all the
floodem improvements.” (Renewed laugh-
ter.) ,This state of things has its origin
inhpnternal indecision. A father, to some
request of his son, says : “ My dear boy,
l’givzmther not- ; but you know best”—
a mother talking with her daughter—
“*Myfdear daughter, I suppose it must

make home happy. We arr.- not so dorm-s—
tic as our pan-111s wcrcwso oc‘upicd \vil if
business are we that there is no time to
attend to home and the tendency of the
age is against home love. Let them rc-
flect that no pursuit of wealth or ambi-
tion can justify the neglect of home !
“ 0h, dost. thou seek for pleasure?
Thou need‘st not far to roam.
But see}: the hidden treasure
At homo.
There are many who mean not unkind-
ly to their families by this neglect of
them—who think to themselves “ bynnd-
by when I get money enough, 1 will cul-
tivate family relations.” When old Billy
Gray, the Boston merchant Was asked
what. he considered money enough, his
answer was “ A little more, s1r, will sat-
isfy Inc—a. little more.” It is hard to say
when men of this stamp will have real-
ized enough to admit of their cultivating
family relations, but they may find if ev-
er the time comes, that the desire to eul-
.tlvnfc the home eujoymcnts has passed
away.
The lecturer then happily sketched in
the way of contrast the tyrant of the
domestic hearth, and that kindly family
man, whose genial smile diffuses perpeual
sunshine through ‘the “ family arrange-
ments.” Whatever of vinegar there is in
the morose let them give it to the world
which gives them so many naid knocks,
and when they come to the portal Of that
home where love awaits them, let love
and good will reign. (Raptuons up-
plunge.)
To confirm the love of home, one. way
would be to promote amusements at home,
and cited the late Mr. Leigh Richmond
as a model family man. All must have
remarked that all good fathers and moth-
ers are good-looking. (Laiighter) It
happened to him to meet one. of these
good-looking fathers one morning, his face
radiant with love and hapl'iiness. “What
ails you this morning?” “Ails me, noth-
ing? Why do you ask?” “ Why, you
look so wonderful good naturet ." “ Eh!
that’s it—well—as I left home I turned
round and saw two windows full of faces
—all my own, sir, all my own.” (Cheer-
ing in all parts of the house To the in-
itiated all this is patent, but ah, poor
Bachelor 1 This is all Greek to you.
(Roars of laughter and clapping of hands)
Isaac Taylor, an English writer, says a
sunny childhood is an auspicious inheri-
tance. Let us see to it, and learn our
children the inheritance of a sunny child-
hood. IVe want no legislative enactments
to regulate the marriage tie—we will be
laws to ourselves. There is no name
higher than that of American wife and
mother—no higher ambition for an Amer-
ican man than to be the guardian of the
domestic circle. Let all then unite to
adorn with all the love the heart can
bring pure in its depth and bright on its
surface, our American homes, and lay to
heart the lines of the English poet——
” There is a spot 011 earth supremely blcst
Aland the sweetest spot of all the rest.”
That land your country—that spot
your home.
Long protracted cheering marked the
close of this brilliant lecture, which
amused, cdiiied, and intensely gratified an
unusually large audience; The above, of

CEMENT ROOTING.
T - HIS article has been thoroughly tested by
builders, Architects,.and others, andthe
experienee‘ot‘years'has‘ proved it to be the
cheapest and most durable roofing in use.
We call attention to the following facts :
1st—It is fire and water-proof.
2d—Fron1 its great elasticity it is not inju-
' riously affected by extremes of heat and cold.
3d—It, is adapted _to all kinds of Roofs,
whether steep or flat, and is not in want of
constant repairs,'as is the case with metal and
other roofs. ' - ‘ .'
:4th——-The cost'is only about One—Half that,
of Tin, and it is twice as durable.
'ft is readily applied to-Old Shingle Roofs,
without removing the shingles, which is a
great desidcratum to parties who do not Wish
to risk having their ceilings and furniture ru-
ined, while repairs are being Inade.
Leaky Tin and Metal Roofs are readily rc-
paired with Gutfa Pcrcha Cement, and
prevented from further corrosion and leaking
thereby insuring a perfectly water-tight roof
for many years. ,
Specimens of the Roofingcau be seen by
calling 011 the subscriber, at South Norwalk.

THE unmask TRIBUh‘E.
1868-
'l‘nr: NRW-Yonk 'l‘nIIu‘Nis, first issued in
1841, now in ifs l\\i'nt_v-nccontl your, liasob-
taincd both :1. larger and n morc \vidcly dil-
f'uscd circulation than any othcr newspaper
ever published in America. Though it has
suffered, in common with other journals, from
the volunteering and departure of tens of
thousands of its patrons to serve in the \Vnr
for the Union, its circulation on this 6th of
December, 1862, is as follows'; '
DAILY, 50,1 25
SEMI-WEEKLY, 17,250
WEEKLY, 148,000
Aggregate, 215,375
Pro-eminently a journal of News and of Lit-
erature, T1111 TRIBUNE has political c011-
victions, which are well characterized by the
single word RFI‘URLICAN. It is Republican
in its hearty adhesion to the great truth that
“God has made of one blood all nations of
Inen”—-Republican in its assertion Of the
equal and inalienable rights of all men to
“ life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”—
Republican injts steadfast, earnest, defiant
hostility to every, scheme and effort of the
Slave power, fr‘om the Annexation of Texas
to the great Rebellion, to grasp the empire of
the New World and wield the resources of
our country for its own aggrandizcment—Re-
publican in its antagonism to the aristocrats
and despots of the Old World, who fondly
hall in the perils anti calamities suddenly
thrust upon us by their American counter-
part the overthrow and ruin of the Model
Republic—Republican in its hope and trust,
its faith and efforts,._that this atrocious Re-
bellion must resultlin the signal overthrow
of its plotters, and the firm establishment of
equal rights and equal laws throughout the
whole extent of our country, wherein Lib-
erty and Union shall indeed be “ one and in- .
separable" henceforth and forever.
Tun TRIBUNE devotes attention in calmer
times, and to some extent in these, to Edu-
cation, Temperance, Agriculture, Inventions,
and whatever else may minister to the spir-
itnal and material progress and well-being
of mankind; but for the prcsant its energies
and its columns are mainly devoted to the in-
vigoration and success of the War for the
Union. Its special correspondents accom-
pany every considerable army and report
every important incident of that great strug—
gle which we trust is soon to result in the
signal and conclusive triumph of the Nation-
al arms and in the restoration of Peace and
Thrift to our distracted, bleeding country.
We believe that no otherwise can a fuller or
more accurate view of the progress and char-
acter of this momentous conflict be obtained
than through the regular perusal of our col-
umns. And we earnestly solicit the co-ope-
ration of all friends of the National cause,
\\ hich we regard and uphold as that of Uni-
versal Humanity, to aid usiu extending its
circulation.

RUNNING STITCH
SEWING MACHINE. _
It is a PRACTICAL, RAPID, EFFICIENT and
DURARLL‘. SEWING MACHINE, adrpted to a
large proportion of FAMILY SEWING, or for
manufacturing purposes, and is highly orna-
mental, and is so light and portable, (weigh-
ing less than one pound) that it can be con—
veniently carried in the pocket or retieulc.
Its operation is so very SIMPLE that it re-
quires but :1 slight degree of judgment to
use it.
By the simple turning of a crank with one
hand, and guiding the work with the other,
it silently yet very rapidly with a. COMMON
NEEDLE makes the running stitch EXACTLY
LIKE HAND SEWING, only more perfect and
regular. -
It will 111211, CATUnn, llUlI‘FLE, sIIIRR, TUCK,
RpN UI’ BRUADTIIS, etc., with a single or
double thread on any material adapted to
the RUNNING STITCII, from the LIGIITEST
and TlansT up to two thicknesses of ordi-
nary silk or muslin. The thinnest, usually
the most diflicult to stitch by other sewing
machines, being sewed the easiest. For la-
dies’ and children’s apparel, and other arti-
cles made of light fabrics, it will therefore be
found almost INVALUARLD.
It is attached to the table like a sewing
bird, and having no tension, and requiring
no lubrication or change of stitch, is always
ready for operation, and such a marvel of
simplicity that a child Of six or eight years
can UNDERSTAND it immediately, and use it
SUCCESSFULLY.
It is not at all liable to get out of order.
Each machine is put up in a 11th box, ac-
NI NI E.
companied With full and explicit directions
and twenty-five needles.
Sent to any address in the United States
on receipt of'an order, inclosing the amount,

THE ATLANTIC RIONTHLY.
BEGINNING OF A NEW VOLUME.
THE NUMBER FOR JANUARY, 1863, BEGINS THE
Eleventh Volume of the,Atlantic Monthly
From the commencement, in 1857, the AT-
LANTIC has rapidly increased in circulation,
and it_110w has the largest class of readeis
since its beginning, five years ago. Its pros-
perity steadily augments, and it continues,
amid all the fluctuations and dangers inci-
dent to our national crisis, to gain ground in
the estimation of the public. At a time so
pregnant with events which touch the future
destinies 01 America in every vital particular,
the Publishers and Editors do not deem it
necessary to promise that its pages Will nev-
cr swerve from the honest paths of loyal pa-
triotism and universal freedom. Its opinions
have always been on the side of Liberty,
Progress, and Right, and the course it first
adopted in its early career, will ever be faith-
fully maintained.

Sales 01' “'ebsfor-‘s Dictionaries.
From certain published statements of the
lcading booksellers from every part of the
country. it would seem that the sales of the
various editions of" Webster‘s Dictionaries
are enormous, exceeding many times 'the
sales of all other dictionaries put together.
We learn that there are five different edi-
tions of our great American lexicographer
now published in England, besides several
English dictionaries which are confessedly
based on Webster. A recent article in the
London Critic admits that the orthography
of Webster's Dictionary is all but universal
in the United States.
