Davidson College. Our fair cor
respondent " Velta," under a recent
date, sends us the following beautiful
sketch from Davidson College :
Messrs. Editors : Davidson College is
a most pleasant place to spend a few
days. The College building can lay no
claims to beauty, it is simply huge,
massive, imposing. The halls of the
Literary Societies have indeed been
made most attractive. Rich and luxu
rious carpets ; elegant furniture, pure
marble and handsome wood ; eiegant
lace and damask hangings; superb
chandeliers the one in the Philanthro
pic Hall, unsurpassed in its supreme
beauty. It is claimed to be the one
under which "Napoleon was married"
and the Euraeneans, not to be out done,
declare theirs to have been used at
" Behhazzar's feast:1 1837, the year of
its founding, marked in the lamp globes
of the Philanthropic Hall, the beautilul
mottoes, all the speaking surrounains,
in a concert of voices suggest what an
array of " thoughts that breathe and
words that burn " have sprung forth i
these clastic walls. Each Society has
an extensive aud invaluable library.
The complimentary lighting of halls,
and a charming serenade from the very
fine stringed band, were highly appre
ciated and much enjoyed. Dr. Phillips,
that mighty mathematical genius
preaches in his most erratic style a
powerlul sermon of big tlhiughts, to
grasp all of which one must give intent
and earnest heed. He bursts lorth some
startling " What is Truth ?' and as you
listen eager for his respouse. be disap
points -your expectation, and sweeps by
to gather up another handful of shin
tng truths, and displays theurto view.
Prof. Latimer is an ardent aud eloquent
Minister, anil seems warm hi his love
for souls. -The choir, .with so many
fine, full voices, makes sweet melody.
The supenor Faculty of Davusou
College, individually and collectively,
titling their high trust it-o effectively,
with all the facilities afforded by the
Institution, are indeed tloing a grand
woik. A large amount ot hope, of the
chuich, Slate and country, is vested in
the students now iu attendance there.
The present graduating class, which is
quite laige, has in it much of piety,
talent and promise. Professor Winn's
peitcct restoration is the subject of
heartfelt thanksgiving.
The: Williams' Associa-tion t)f Inquiry,
is oue of the auxiliaries of good. This
college has been long renowned for its
high-toned morality, and its large pro
pot tion of vital godliness. It Is a living
fountain, sending forth flowing, fertili
zing, ' sparkling.- streams. A mighty
spread, ng tree, maturing beauteous,
nutritrious, luxuriant .fruit.
It w as Sabbath evening ''Day like, a
weary pilgrim had reached the western
jxaie ot Heaven, and evening stooped
down to loose the latchet of its sandal
shooii." The zephyrs through the sur
rounding pines sighed, in tender elo
quence, nquicms lor the foot-steps
w hich no longer sought 'their sacred
solitude, to pour forth full hearts in sup
plication to a prayer-hearing God.
Sons of such an Alma Mater will
may your hearts thrill with Pride, and
your souli burn with -Love, as you recall
her fair history, and recount your glori
ous band of brotherhood. Methinks
even on thy pearly streets of ihe New
Jerusalem you will cluster together and
review the. precious seasons oi grace en
joyed in jour regular prayermeetings,
and other sweet times of refreshing.

Individuality. We are too ready to
"pin our faith upon other men's sleeves,"
to depend upon the opinions or the
actions of others, to discard all personal
mental efforts and await the action of
another . man's fingers ere we decide
upon what road to take in our journey
of life. One hangs upon the words
dropped from the lips of a Beecher;
another accepts as his model man a
Greeley ; another believe the opinions of
a Wendell Philips to be both law and
gospel, and we are all wrong. Expe
rience teaches us at an enormous expense
for tuition, that our greatest idols lail
to come up to a proper standard, and
time proves to be nearest right, you
must, perhaps, with great labor, evolve
your own consciousness, guided by all
the knowledge you can attain, a correct
view of all the great concerns of life,
and of your own wisdom choose your
way.
Our idols have been shattered, the
men in whom we 4iave placed implicit
confidence have disappointed us, and
we see more and more every day the
natural weakness of man. We need not
go into families about it; we are in
measure all alike. We are perhaps dis
appointing our liiends, and we must
not forget that when men are elevated
to high positions they still remain men,
with all their natural weakness and
foibles. Whether in the Senate Cham
ber or the House;' whether in the na
tional government or the church, or
mercantile life,, men are but men. And
iu the noisy whirl ot lite, tempted by
place and power, often hesitaiing
conscientiously between ' two opinions,
they shtiuld not forget their individu
ality uid instead of being guided by
his own best thoughts, let others lead
them because they are afraid to lead
thtmselves. A firm individuality is the
truest murk of manhood, and he w ho
would be truly great must act out him
self regardless of the many influences
with which he is surrounded, save only
those which his conscience tells him are
for his :ood.
Tue Latesf from tue Danbury
Man The following cu " Adventures
of a Pot of Paint," is the very latest
rom the pen of Bailey, the wit who
iresides over the columns of the Din-
bury Ykts :
Old Mr. Watson on Nelson street, has
got a nice little bill to pay. He sent a
nan dovu town for a pot of paint a'nd
ladder. Ihe man got the paint and
then went to a lumber yard after a lad-
fer. 1 hen he tied the paint pot on the
end of the ladder and put the ladder
on his shoulder. This was a very smart
arrangement, aud the man himself ad
mired it very much. He started for hi?
inme this way, and didn't find any
tiouble in getting along the first block
because people had an impression that
a long ladder with 'a pot of yellcw paint
landing on the end of it wasn t ex
actly the thing to trifle with, so they
mlunced along on the curbstone, or
rushed up against the buildings. Pret
ty soon the man saw somebody in a
store lie knew, and he turned around to
speak to nim, and drove one end ot the
adder into a millinery case and
knocked the crown out of an eighteen-
dollar bonnet. Then he backed oft in
ftright an knocked down two sewing-
machine agents with the other end.
Then he started to turn around, a'nd an
ld gentleman, who was desparately en
deavoring to pull his wife out of danger.
saw the peril.and shouted out,"Hi, thete!'
But was too late. Ihe pot struck
against an awning-post, tippled to one
side, and the entire contents went over
the aged couple. This so startled the -man
that he w heeled completely around,
smashing in an entire store front.

were actively dodging about to get out

Literary Entertainments. It is
not true that because thy people ot
Raleigh do not patronize second class
shows and other humbugs, they have
no appreciation of true literary merit.
The hiirbly respectable audience that
Elected Mr. Saxe when he lectured at
fucker Hall is a re'ut.t on of the s!an-
. - .1 i .1 " i
i.er that our citizens arc uevom oi
literary tste and refinement.
Capt. Jbines Barron Hope, the taien-
t(d EJitor ot the Norjollc Virginian, has
consented to deliver his famous lecture
on the "Press ami the Printer's Devil"
in this city on the 1st of May. We
trust to see a large turn-out at Tucker's
Hall on thy occasion. Capt. Hope's let
tury is spoken ot in the highest terms
by our Virginia cotemporaiies. He is
a scholar, a gentleman and a Poet, and
a devoted lrieud of.North Carolina, and
deserves a crowded house.
Where's Ramsay. Ye see from
Our Richmond exchanges that the beau
tilul Olive Logan has been lecturing
with' creat success in that city. Her

of her rematks she paid an eloquent.

New Dish. A gourmand of brilliant
inventive powers has originated the
charming idea of utilizing tadpoles, or
"polly wogs,". as an article of table
luxury, lie has tried them, and found
them better than snails, shrimps, or any
other such "small deer" usually reckoned
as luxuries.

volunteers proved faint-hearted. Dis
orders commenced Wednesday night.

Calitonia, was tired at near Plaza Tarros
by the volunteers who had taken up
arms in favor of the permanent com
mission and held the Bull Ring. Six
batteries of artillery andthe mitraillieu

At midnight the Ministry decreed the
dissolution of the commission and dis
armed its defenders.- The Reds forced
their way into the presence ot the com
mission, but members of the Ministry
were personally protected. The Reds
have posted themselves at the corner of
the streets and have possession of the
city. It is variously reported that Ser
rano ha3 been imprisoned or fled the
city.
