Ko fi Ihrrirgcr . seconded the- nomination -nd motio v of Mr. Carrow in my name and behalf. - I'i ' Mr. LUlbinger, by mistake ?o lj part, did this ilith,il authority from me. I stated thia tolIf7 BarKuger, fat tlie time, uiid proposed to correct die jok'take then and here. But, on reflection, I conclud ed not to dfppear before the convention, at my nurrte ,lnd not been before JtVxcept by thi mistake, but to correct the mis take otherwie. As I can n of,, for reasons which I Will give, aume or) endorse the statement ! which wi publicly m,jde in my mimo and behalf, 1 think it light and proper thai I tdteuld correct the mistake, and declaim the endorsement which was given in my name. Tor this purpose I ask of the favor lo publrsh this cud. On the (lay before the convention was nrnizedJl met Mr. Uarringer at the. National Hotel, and ho said something in reference to my nomination lor the office ui touperttwcnticnt o r ..... .. influence had already determined that tlie llev. J. CijUvid should be nofninated, and that I wn? aiiified that- he would be nominated,! andr that I cared jv-ery little abotrt et king or getting thei iiooiiation from a convention thus controlled. He replied t4at Mr. Iteid was altogether unfit fur the duties of this office by reason of bis age, atd that he would . bring my name forward n a candidate for the office. I assented and did not again men t,ion the (matter te bins until a few mometits before the nomination was to le made. I then went to bim and requested him to put my i.ainc in nomination before the convention. He replied that be would do po with .pleasure ; that his delegation had agreed lo vote for me, and that I ought to be elected by scclaraation. Hq was etaud iitg 4 n the floor for the purpose of put ting my name in nomination,fwhen Judge .Settle nominated Mr. lltid, and Mr. Car vow moved to make the nomination by acclamation. While the applause and clapping of hands with which this Mas received, was subsiding, Mr Buiringer turned to ine as if to enquire what he jnust-do. 1 Paid to him, "Ufct it go; 1 j;iie nothing for it." Upon this ho sec onded the nomination in my name as bu l're stated. If the convention had nominated a suit able person for the office 4ne vvno s vitpabh of doing something fqr education in the Stntf, and vlo would be willing to devote his time and energies jjto that and in tiothinpf cle, I could have! nothing to f-ay Against it ; but 1 am unwjUiiig to re main before the public as approving the nomination, while 1 know that the geu- 1o4iian nominated is totally tjTifk for the position which he peeks, both by'reason f hi great age aud his wanjt of educi lion for the , work. Mr. leid,Jifter speud itig nearly half a century asf an active Winking minwter of the gospel, was pi ic ed oil the retire d list many years' ago, be eme he had become loo old to do t ho vr.rk to .which he h.id ho6n Accustomed through a long, valuable, and useful life. And now in his second childhood, totter iog upon the very verge of thifi grave, he usdts the people of North 1'arolina to f.Uce htm in one of the most important departments of the State government a position which requires the j labor of a ttrong man, both physically and intellec tually, and of ono who has been educated for the purpose. His election) iray be of dvmitagdto hitn, but it cannot poesibly v, o( any advantage to the people of N. f 'arolina or to the caise of education. H ie is too old, as he himself says IiqA by 'ing on the retired list, for thai work to which he was faithful and trua for a greater number of years than ja large ma- oniy of men are permitted (o live, theu i is too old f.r a work a!ti)?eth.er new and much more laborious thn the work w lrch he left. But my principal objection to the nom ination s, that it was gotten ujrin Wash ington City, several weeks! before the convention met, and fa the product of a Scheme to make the educational interests f the tate, subservient to party purposes And personal ends, as I will now proceed to show. The members of the pcncral assembly at its last session were appealed to to revise the school law and make provisiorr for free school, npon the ground that educa tion was not a party question but a great popular interest. The legislature respond ed promptly and Njiberally The fund appropriated by the general assembly for school purposes during the prcsentj-car is large than Us erec been.nsed in Nortk Carolina for thd support of free schools in any one yearTKe school law, as revised, has been prenouncejj by good judges to le the Lest we liavcl had 4u this State. ' ,. It was also believe that U would be riht and proper, and! to the interest of the Sutc, if tho Uuiver)ity could betaken out of party pofitics, id be reorganized mid revived upon a non-partizan basis, ilhe matter was deliberated jweJl before any step was Ukcu. The principal diffi culty suggested; wa, that liev. Solomo.. -ot who is a brother uf Senator Pool liel'l thn titleof president of theUuiversi'y Mhicli lie was ntfvilliils to pjve up, and itbst Senator Bool would jiotrl consent to anything which would ii.vvlve the removal .f his brother.

I may Cake occasion hereafter to ely soidi-thing nioie upon this matter of o5 ciatpatroliage. For the present I will aj thai Jlr-iRfeid, who a trnstee of tie University agreed with Sejialer Pool tbjit tLe 1'iiivrsity must be kept in the hanils of the republican party exclusively.

I have atpl , imi; b i w)lin l0 lmve th(Jm aiinexd, to the dirties of the office which I bolt, without aijy ompensatin whatever. The attempt as made last January to reduce Mr. Lassiter's salary as treasurer of the University from one thousand to otie hundred dollars, and when that failed, then to five hundred dollars. The veil era! aud reverend James C. Uetd stood by ' hi frienji" Lassittr upon that occasion with his votes aud speeches. He carried hiui sfe tlirougli, and; Mr. laster'0 salary remains one thousand dollars a year Scpator Pool, llev. J. C.liid and othef trudtee of the University, by re taining the University in their own' binds enable Mr. Uassiter to receive audi use one thousand dollars a year, which the creditors of the University ought, to have. If they accomplished anything more, 1 have- not been able to discover it. The nomination of Mr. Iteid was an endorse ment of this, aud a rejection -of the offer implied ii( the action of the general nSv 8embly, and the educational interest of the State should be kept out, of party cou. tests, and be supported by both parties. I know he was notuinatcd, because he stood; by Mi. Liesiter, aud reifused to nU low his salary, as treasurer of tho Uni versity, to jbe reduced from oiije thousand to oife hui died dollars, and, because lie refused to k'onsent to a reortrdnizalion of he uinverily upoq a non-pai tiz-iu has:; in otler woids because be insisted upon making the educational in iutlerest Aik StatoS subs irvicnt to parly politicianei Whei) I hoard the acclimations of applaiisfa Jith which his nominal ion wtfi icceivfd, I asked myself, what does this ineany? It means simply thiit the cotif ventipn which professes to represent eighty thousand colored voters and 4 number of white voterp has for the sake of gratifying three or fur politicians, actuully sacrl ficed j!hc lijkln'st interests olf the people which it professes to represent. If knowanyting well, it. is, tht it is ruirjj ous t the jcausc'of cducalioit to, drag ij into political party contents.

JThis venerable Presbytery held its semi-annual Sessions in Concord Church, abont six miles west of Statesville, closing pit Moffday evening last, after four days asildaous labor. All the ministers were preseut at the. meeting, and a goodly del egation of Holing Elders. The most interesting feature of this meeting was tlr examination and licensure uf four yqung men to preach the Gospel. These young" brethren were examined on their wfiole literary and theological course, and the examination was thorough and pro longed. They sustained the test admi rably, showing that they had recrived a thorough traming, both at College aud Seminary. Their names are R. M. Tuttle, J. W. RosebOro', B. G. Clifford, and W. 11. Davis the first from - Lenoir, the se cond from Statesville, and the last two from Salisbury. .Some of them have already received invitations from the va cant churches, andjt is to be hoped, that all of them will locate in the bounds of Presbytery. , . . : The next Sekcton ef this Presbytery will be held in- Septemberat lh town f of Newton !' ;- .... t The Liberal Republicans met iu Raleigh csteVday (TTiursday,) for r the purpose of sendiug delegates to the Cin cinnati Convention, which assembles next Wednesday.

The late radical Conven tion has snubbed, pretty cff-ctiially, the new convert; to their pirty, in the mai ler of bestowiug honors. Without ex cepiion, we believe, all tho nominees are of the original psnnel, and the new converts, however respectable, have been left out in the cold. Among these we see Dr. R.imsav and das. M. McCorkle. Etri . of our iniinedi- i ale neighborhood, both of whom are gen tlciuen of admitted ability. There are others like them in different pats of the State gentlemen whose names would add dignity and strength to the party. t certaiuly cannot be a very pleasant reflection to these gentlemen person- sonally to see themselves ignored by men below theirgrade, norcrtii the verr hearti-I ly endorse a party wlio display sa little wisdom in their efforts to sustain an or ganization notoriously deficient ia the very element of strength which they make a point m rejecting. A Worse Feature. The respectable new converts to radicalism, are no, only kept on bach scats, but by the action of the late radical Convention, ihey are required to 0 bacVm their record. Take, for example, the case of the Statcsrilh American. What paper in North Caro lina has denounced with more bitterness W. W. Holden and his condnct as Gov- truor, than the American 1 What-one wore heartily . condemned be Jvirk-Hol j den war on the neoole of this Statf t I bat one more joyously approved th fnipeachment of Holden ! All moderate Republicans who occupied these posi fiona are driven froax them by the ponvention, which adopted resolutions eulogising Holden, and endorsing his of iBc'al record, and promising to Tpte ?tim fa the future. This ii "the oykiudest pat of all' the bitterest dose poor re pentant peliticians are ever called on to swallow. Jost imagine that yon see them panged on back seats in the Convention: he negroes, scallawags and : carpet bag. gera jubilantly in front, com pound ingdiis nauseoQs dose for" decent men seme determined to swallow it if it kills them ! Grant' privaU Secretary has come all the way from Washington to; administer it ; and with villainous saalice drops into each man's enp an extra tincture that fairly makes the eve balls of the convert start from their sock ets ps the dose goes down 1 Lan it be possible that the medicine! wilt stick ! j U e think thei. are manv cases in ! wfijch it will nut. There are some many in fact, of the class named whose stomachs (to keep np the figure) will re volt at the disgusting concoction and heave it out with very decided emphasis.

As the history of man ti the earth's crust is divided into Ancient. Medieval and Mo dern, so the history of the crust is separated into three grand eras, the Paleozoic time, the Mesozoie (middle), aud the Cenozoie, (re cent); then came the sub-divUions into the six epochs or ages. But I dw not propose to enter into the de tails of the science any further than to show how our blindness would put science ia the Elace of Religion, whereas she is and should e the handmaid of Religion; the study of nature in each and every department; should bring us intellectually Dearer to God, the Great First Cause of all. Instead of this we go baak one step aud stand exactly in our knowledge, as il we had gone back to that simple, yet inconceivably awfal ''In the Be ginning."' An apple falls, we call it gravi tation, and exalt ia the discovery, aud plume ourselves upon our wisdom or aeuteness, as if we could know anything of Gratitation bat that it is.
