Education in Russia*—There are six
tinivershies in tlie Russian onijiire. The
cities in whicli they are established, are
Moscow, Peiersburgh, Casan, Dorput,
(’herkof, and Wilna. The nalivcs ol
Hussii^ are not allowed to p^o and study
in a foreign counlry, unlilha\ ing attend
ed lur at least three years ojie of the Rus
sian universities. Nttveriheless, the
chairs are few in number, several subjects
are entirely interdicted, and the ^ igilance
if the censorship cramps the proiessoi s
in treatinij those which are allowed.
I’he student are undt'r all kinds of re
straint, espe-L'iaUy at Dorpat and Wilna;
where indeed disorders have occasionally
taken place which re(iuirfd the inteil'ei-

fire of his quick black eye is very re
markable. He wears large niustachios,
and his hair is dark and curling. After
many opportunities of seeing him, I may
s.iV that I never met with a face which
g tve a more exact idea of a man. Bold

DON’T BE DISCOURAGED,
If in the outset of life things do not go
on smoothly. It seldom happens that
the hopes we cherish ol the future are
realized. The path of life, in the pros
pect, appears smooth and level enough,
but when we come to travel it we hnd it
all up hill, and generally rough enough.
The journey is a laborious on»', whether
poor or wealthy, bigb or low, we shall
lind it so, to our disappointment, iftv»>
have built on any other calculation. 'I'u
endure what is to be endured with as
much cheerfulness as possible—and tu
elbow our way as easily as we can
through the great crowd, hoping for lit
tle, yet striving for much, is perhaps the
true |)Ian. But,
Don't be discouraged, if occasion liy you
slip down by the way, and your neigh
bors tread over you a little ; in other
words, don’t let a failure or two dishear
ten you—accidents haj)pen, miscalcula
tions will sometimes be made; things
will often turn out differently from our
expectations, and we may he sufferers.—
It is Worth while to remember that for
tune is like the skies in April, some
times cloudy and sometimes clear and fa
vorable ; sometimes those who have long
stood before the world are very rotten al
the core. From sources such as these
you may be unexpectedly deceived; and
you will naturally feel sore under such
d( ceptioiis ; but to these you must be-
(ome used; if you fare as most of the
people do, they will lose their novelty be-
ibif you grow grey, and you w ill learn to
trust men cautiously. It would be folly
to despair of again seeing the sun, be
cause lo-day is stormy, so it is unwise to
sink into despondency when fortune
frowns, since, in the common course of
hings, she may be surely expected to
smile again. And again—
Don*t be discouragtd, if you are deceived
in the people of the world. It often hap
pens that men wear borrowed characters;
as well as borrowed clothes. Examine
them closely, before you allow them
great opportuuiiv to injure you.
Don't be discouraged under any circum-
stcuces. tio steadily forward. Rather
i (insult your own touscieiii'y, than tl^e
ojiiiiions of men, though the last is not to
be disregarded. Be industrious, be fru-
t;a!, t)e honest; deal in perfect kiitdnei,s
with all that come in your way, exercis
ing a neighborly and obliging spirit in
your whole intercourse, and if you do
not prosper us rapidly as any d‘ vour
neighbors, depend upon it you will be

Richmond, keb. 28.—It beconu s our
duty to notice u horrible catastrophe,
w hich took place in this City yesterday-
VVe should touch it as briefly as we can j
for the case is now in the hutids of Jus-
tice.--James M’Naught, ’Gunsmith of
this city, (and an admirable one he was,)
has been committed to jail on the chai gc
of shooting Danl. Denoon, his foreman.
It is said, that they dined togelher >es-
terday, in the upper room of IVl’Naught’s.
house ; the ap[)rentices in the shop then
ditied ; and M’N. who had retired alone
into another room, contiguous to the di
ning room, sent for Daniel Denoon (his
foreman.) and as soon as he had entereti
the room, it is said that M’N. shot hini
in the abdcinen with a |)isiol ; aiui it is
also said that M’N. discharged another
pistol, which grazed his own eiuek, and
drew blood. When the persons, alarmed
by the discharge of the pistols, entered
th-e room, tliey were both found lying on
Iheiloor; the unfortunate Denoon mor
tally wounded, and M’Naugbt not seri
ously hurt. Denoon lingered for sever
al hours, anil died, last evening, about 4
o’clock : before his dissolution, he was

it to have been a duel between them, in
which he was wounded and D. fell. Young
Dtyioon was raised as an ap[)renti. e by

to a fair examination anti a fair trial.
We •wish him lo have it.
