Mr. Cherry moved that tha propoeition bo Uid on tha ULle; ijta 22, mn 20. ; A v , Mr. DocVe. j aaid tint he felt a deep interest in the I'uiveraitv that ha bad graduated one aou at it, the only one he had praduated that be waa a truate in another institution, but bid pent hia .money at the Unireriity- that ba mentioned thia to show what be thought of it to chow that ho waa not-prejudiced. Ua ei p reused himeelf in favor of inoreaijig tha im portiiDeo of that institution that he regarded it Aa a State institution, And not that of any part, and that every thing of a partisan nature ongbt to be excluded from cooaideratioa and be entirely disconnected with it. lluuior had aid that A decision hid been nude who should govern .Uta University; that there had boon A meeting of tha Democratic party with eloeed doota( tit the dark, boiled in, with aentriea attht doom, to decide upon who (should be elected.

If the DemocrAtic party taicea charge of this institution, and in niictnigbt meetingi oontrol ita otatiny, we who op post the principle of that party most get an institution of ouf own.

But tbe fiat baa p forth; the edict haj paraed, and we have- no nothing to do but sub mit tba University, wbiob our fathers estaUiabed for all tbe f roe born rhilutrea of the State, to the polluted keeping of rarty, and that' to be exer- ' ciaed, not in the open daylight, and in the balla of togudalioo, bnt in A night meeting, ia some dark room, with the doors bolted, and sentineia posted to keep out all. who do not bend tha knee to them, aad subscribe to their rule.

' Mr. Eaton aaid UiAt be waa nnablc to inform tbe gentleman whether thery had boen a eaucu or not, that it there had, be had no hand .in it. aud disapproved of the movement. He said that the Supreme Court bad expressly declared in one of its decisions, that tbe University was a public institution. He thought all favoriteism ought to be laid aside that be had always acted with a high degree of liberality towards the University, and intended always to do ao that the conside ration of that question be should always keep Above party. -7- -- Mr. Thouias, of Jackson, aaid that if we are lobe taxed $1,500 ayear aimply for the sake of electing tr unices to the University, bis opinion would again change that probably as much is two young men had graduated there from the treat of the Illue Ridge, and that hia part of the State was not. iuimediitely interested in the ina titution that for bis part, he was willing for the College to elect its own trustees. He said be waa a friend to the institution, but vvi getting tired of the heavy tax above-named. He said he bad never been conceraed in this dark-biotera movement, but he'd like to know how they could vaid electing their own partisans that for .hU part, he was willing to let the Democrats have three, and the Americans two, of the trustees. He expressed bimsolf surprised that gentlemen should get np bow gravely and discuss what Madam Humor aya that tho Senate ought not to spend the time on such an uncertain . sub ject, He then related one of Mr. Dockery. old anecdotes. ' . ' ' Mr. Wiggins aaid that a tbe Senator from Jackson (Mr, Thomas) bad no better half to go to during the Christmas holidays, he bad spent hia time in Norfolk. He wished to say. one word oa hia resolution that no important business should be transacted during the holidays that the ques tion had 'been raised as to what was eoniidered important business that bis resolution was in troduced to parucularixe.

None bat Democrat can be Timteca, or have any share in its management, aad those who do Dot subscribe to their creed, nor deaire tbair ton instructed in their princi ple, And subjected to the bias of party training, must sot tend ibcta to thia institution, which baa heretofore been ao conducted a to bare become the pride- of our -eitixou and aa honor to tit State. Th precedent has been set by (he Democrat! party of this Legislature tbe policy ba boen announced, aad ai all other bad exam ple, it will be easy and natural for other to fol low. ,' This it ita beginning. No party, in any former Legislature, baa ever held a party eaucu poo the election of Trustees, itut it is report ed to have been done on this occasion, and no body denies it I now distinctly skarm it upon the Democratic member of this Legislature, that they have btld such a caucus, in the night, with dour bolted and aeutuiels posted at the doors, in structed to admit Done but Democrats to its de liberations. Mr. Hill (of Caswell) liked tbe Senator from Pssnaotank, if be stated thst as a fact, and bow be obtained tbe information. Mr. 1'oui aaid: I bare taken special care not to state it aa a fact but I oow charge it npon tbe Senator from Caswell, as within hia own per sonal knowledge, that bis party baa, with doors bolted and sentinels posted, held a secret meeting night meeting to nomiuat3 Trustees of the Uni versity, aud if such is not the fact, I bero give bira a fair opportunity to deny it. Tben, tkrrt hat Ire tuck a tecrrt wuxlimj. I have before m the names of those nominated by that meet ing. It is ol no use to -lead tuem. -1 hey are ell known 00 the other aide of tbe chamber. It makes do matter where the information of this thing was obtained. Perhaps it ara from Some traitor, for many such have left our partj and beeb received into tbw fold of democracy. There may be more than one similarity between this i see rat meeting of tha democracy and lb mnch j tlVetd dart laatrtV aaeeungs of t 'Ameer-1 ia any. . Imtum caine into far tueetfi'gs aad west out to tor fa it their honor and dMckjas tba proceeding. Tba democratic party received them with open arma aad great joy. And now, when we bave dropped the practice of holding secret meetings, and the democracy haa taken it up, it i not wonderful that in their rank traitor are found to betray tba secrets, Tbey left us we purged them out fermentation took place' and tb. tilth was thrown off. ' Those who gathered it ap and took it lovingly to their embrace, must aot complain if they reap the reward. These traitors gave ns trouble and we hope they may give their new friends as mm b. I do not condemn secret party meeting to nominate political officers, and to take proper meant to secure their election. 'This 1 approve and am ready to defend. But I do condemn tbe violation of professions made to the people Men ought not to frv'tatoue thing and pruciiet anoth er. Those who denounced us for holding seuret political meetings and pronounced it wrong, hor rid, araan and sneaking, no sooner get to the Capi tol than tbey do the very same thing, in thj dark ness of the night, and behind bolts and sentinels. They say it ia terrible, dangercus, moustious for the honest peopU, at home, to hold meetings in secret for the purpose of nominating officer for whom to vote, snd to take proper steps to secure their election. But when thry, the. kudm, have to elect officers, or conduct some party scheme, Arj can meet in secret, midnight cvucluvei with the door bolted aud birred, and gritu scaliucls on the witch and there is no danger in it ut all it is all right. They ire afraid to trust the people in secret council; but their proud repre sentatives, clothed it the honors Aud dignity of office, they can trust to bold stciet poliuaal nieet ingsAnd it is ill perfectly safe. Ihe deiuocratk members oi -this legislature have iioiuiiiatcd, in such meetings, n Attorney General, the Solicit or, a Comptroller, end all the other officers elect ed st thia session ; and, Dually, thry have n.et in secret, midnight council, aud nominated Tru.u t of the I'niicrtity.- ' ' '' 7 It waa really a curious spectacle when' they nominated A Comptroller, l'hey turned out a good and faithful officer, a member of their own patty, for no other cause thau the crime of hav ing once been a member of a secret political meet ing, from which he had long iiie withdrawn. Did it not oot-ur to them that they were, them selves, at that verviiiomcnt, committing the same terrible crime 1 It ia not for holJini the meef ifi, but for violating their profeuiimi, that we blam them. And we blame them -specially for pushing par ty distinctions and favors into the management of the University of the State. ' ..Our literary in stitutions should be kept free from party strife, and sectarian bias especially that institution whioh was established in obedience to tbe Con stitution, for tbe common benefit .of all her citi-. ens, without regard to political or religious opin ions. .

MISCELLANEOUS.; LADIES DRESSES. , An English journal:! thus hits off fhe present tvlo oi ladies dres-es: " The remarks of a valued friend cf oars are sometimes sufficiently amusing to tuake us forgive the sarcastic style in which they ,-i are conveyed." One of bis Infest specula tions is in regent 10 Ihe possible finding, by a succeeding race of maikbid, of a fetnnie dress of the present day; in which case, he " says, a Cuvierian examination of the vari ous articles' would probably bring out the following results : The being to whom this attire belonged must have been constituted V in a Tery peculiar manner,, and pr bal iy with some s'.range natural defects which it required art to remedy.
