It is to be hoped) with Brown's exit from

bit of the faintest character. Fanaticism

; THE UXITERSITVMAGAZIXE.
W have before us tbe' pecember number
of ibla work -and the jouf gentlemen who
conduct ite editorial department, as well as
iU publishers, may weil exalt in it as
eoecess." After a long "trnggle, as the siorj
u told ij the editors, it uas -'merredv' at
last, and tbo joung gentletnen are jubilant
"Hcntd facile enwfgunt, qiioruta virtatibua obstat
' Res anjjustss domi." .
And, therefore, le the stibsevibera pay up,
The editors and contributors, in-, this num
ber; bare done tbeir part nobly. The first
article - is a genial - and jvery-- beautinllj
written memoir of the lata lamented Judge
Nash, by the Hon. Jno. jl. i Bryan. The
subject and the writer were, both born
J and reared iu Newbern then, and long af-
I tenrards, not improperly called the " Athena
I of North Carolina and the task of sketch-
i tug iue cuaracier vi 'Ui?i : v usuce - xiasu
oonld not have been more . appropriate! j as-
signed, nor executed '. in better feeling and
taste.' ! i '
The second article, is the address at the
last commencement of the Hon. Warren
Winslow, to the Alumni Association of the
University, and ia classical, patriotic, rich
and refreshing. 1 V'l. i
The third article, is "A Tale of the For-
est a quasi ballad, and is very pretty and
sad. . Several of the remaining articles have
considerable merit, and are' evidently from
the pens of the youthful editors. It is bo
long since we have felt young nd good, that
we are not quite sure that we appreciate these
lucubrations, as we would ;have done some
lustres since "console Planoo.'). But we
are sure tbtt there has Veen a very great im
provement in the general tone of the Maga
: tine ; and are glad to learn that it now stands
on a firm and permanent basts.
' The literary public will welcome such ef-
forts as the first tiro articles, and rejoice
that they have taken the place in a literary
llagasine, of random slip-shod sketches about
Col. Fanning, and tbat old reprobite, Urr
man Husband of long-winded accounts of
the battles of Guilford, and King's Mountain
and interminable discussions 'on the question
whether Gen. Caswell or 'Gen. Lilliogton was
the real hero ot Moore's Creek 1 These and
similar subject, might well form the orna
mental portion of the next edition of Wheel

in our University Magazine-, r. At all events,
we congratulate toe Jiagszine, tnat our leirn

. The Petersburg Intelligencer is! mistaken
in saying that this recreant son of North

of Hedriek, who had no sooner developed his

' The fellow Helper ha so many ardent ad

i ' ' . SMALL. DEER WIT.
Some editors have indulged. in very small
beer, wit at the expense of, what they term
the unnecessary alarm which prompted Col.
Davis to ask for more troops at Cbarlestown.
It is very easy for these fUnny gentlemen of
the press to st sifely and snugly in their
sanctum, and sneer at a man nunareas oi
miles away from them, and surrounded by cir
cumstances of which they can know nothing.
Col. Davis is a brave man ' and, we would
rather trust him ia an emergency than those
who sneer ft him, their Sneers to. the contra

much
safer business than risking one's ife.

' - - , GINIA. ' ; -v-!
At a called meeting of, the. State Central Com-i
mUtoe, held at tbeir room ia the Whig Building,
on tha night of November 28, 1859, the following
proceedings were bad : " ' , - - -
"jy h at, the Slate Central Committee of tbe
' Opprwition T&rif of Virginia have recommended
'that a Stato Convention be held, in the city of
: Richmond, on the 14th day of December next, for
the purpose of suggesting to the country at large
aome basis on which Union-loving men of all sec
tions might combine to form a constitutional, na
tional and conservative party, to secure tbe rights
and breeerve tbe union of these States,' and to su-
Iercede tho party now Is
jwer ; and, whereas,
the recent invasion of ourSflte at Harper's Fer

duced a sUtt of fdeUg which if not incompati
ble with, at Ipast esroangers a tlax and reflect!?
survey of thediScuHies and embarrassments
which now disturb the peace and- harmony of' the
country; trusting that tbe lapse of a short period
of tme may bring forth a distinct demonstration
of a. sounder and more conservative sentiment ;
desiring to use all honorable means to tranquilize
the disturbances which now, so unhappily threaten
the general weal and public welfare, and ardently
wishing to bring about some national organiza
tion by virtue of the supremacy of which the
union of tho States and the States of the Union
"shall bo and remain as they were contemplated by
the Constitution nod its rramers ; now, therefore,
the otata Crntrsl Committee of the Opposition
Party of Virginia do recommend that the holding
of tbe said Convention be postponed until the 22 J
day ci F ebruary next.
Tbe committee are aware, and regret that the
time between now and the 14'h of December is
short, yet there is abundant time to inform all the
delegates of the proposed cbanga, so as not to sub
ject them to inconvenience; and they are also
aware that tho most or the counties or the state
have deput-d d"lga.tcs to attend on the 14th of
Dccvmber, but this is not a matter of important
considora'iin', as the same delegates will of course
attend as delegates on the 22d of Febrrary next.
Believing that, at this particular time, the peo-
pa would bn ruluctaat to leave their bomes,nd
under all the circuoastances, deeming it wisA. to
rostpono the holding of tbe Convention, the Com
mittee do earnestly recommend the adoption ot
the fnrtr,iing suggtvtions, and invoke all thecoun
ties of the Stale which have not appointed dele
gates to do so between now and the 22d of Fob
ruary, snd thus let the Opposition party of Vir
ginia form h nucleus around which unionikving
men may ?ather, and by which the Constitution
may be preserved.

MESSA(;r. OF GOVERNOR GIST,
OF
SOUTH CAROLINA.,
- The Legislature of South Carolina mot at Co
lumbia on Monday. Governor Gist closes his
message to that body with the following remark
to regard in our Federal relations :
Faor.RAt. Reuitioss. Admonished by the ac
tion nf tho Legislature in. relation to certain Res
olutions which were returned without comment to
the State fro-i whence they came, by one of my
. predccesra, I herewith transmit certain Resolu
tions from the Stat of Vermont affirming the
right jf'f Congress to exclude slavery from the Ter-
ritories of tht: United States, aad expressing the
opinion that it is the duty of Congress to exercise
this ri-rbt: and that Vermont willi ontinue to ro-
slt tbo admission of new slave States into this
Union, and will seek the Abolition of slavery at
tbe Njitional Capitol. Also a?serting that the de
cisiun of the Supreme -Court, in the Dred Scott
case, bhs no warrant in the Constitution, .and is
-not birdng opon Vermont, or the people of the
Unite;! SiatM. These Resolutions not only em
body hn opinions of Vermont, but of all the non
slaveliMin; States; and the signs of the times
clearlf indicit- an aptroachng crisis in the des
tinies Vf the South. The war so relentlessly urged
against our institutions bas assumed a form so
menacing, tLt none but those who are wilfully
blind fan fail to see the dangers that surround us,
and the peril to which we are exposed. A small
party at the North, numbering at first only a few
fanatics, bas assumed gigantic proportions ; and,
with very few eaoeptions, the entire Northern
people art sr raved against us, and pledged to our
destruction. Not satined with the slow but cer
tain measures in progress to reduce us to worse
than colonial vassalage, by refusing to admit slave
State! into the Union by the establishment of
underground railroads to assist our negroes to es
cape from our service by prohibiting us from car
rying pur slaves into the common territories, and
by every otter conceivable means, they have ac
tually crossed the Rubicon attempted to instigate
our amves to insurrection, and furnished them
with arms to murder us on Southern soil. Har
per's ferry is the truthful illustration of the first
act in the drama to be performed on a Southern
theatre, and if the South does cot now unite for
her defence, we will deserve the execration of pos
terity ,and the blood that has been shed will bear
a disgraceful and humiliating record against us.
The intention of the North is as clearly evinced
by the action of the few, and more especially when
that nation is ratified and approved by the pre
and people of the non-slaveholding States, as if I
. a - . . 1 . I l til. .. J - at a I
thpy Bad sent forth their multitude in the trea-
sonabfe,and incendiary attack upon the South.
Can yrey then, any longer talk about moderation
and conservatism, and statesmanship, and stUl hug
the d-if-ive phantom to our breast tbat all is well,
aod thf tthe Democratic party opon whom we have
too cof Sdently relied, will work out our salvation
by plaf forms and resolutions ? As well might we
rely u.n a paste-board barque to protect us from j
ocean 1 (arms. South Carolina should be careful
not tof pmmit her? elf; di'Wtly or Indirectlyj to
any Pf'Widcntial aspirant, and be forced by party
trammis to support a party nominee. An open
and nrtlidguised enemy is infinitely preferable to a
pretonf ed friend, and we should scorn the alterna
tive offa choice of evils, as being but the poor
pri vilrt.f) of a slave to choose a master. We have
sunk viiry low, indeed, if our liberties are to de-
pend u.on the fortunate selection of a candidate

than a fpold and determined resolution to maintain

msnenti" minority on all questions affecting those j
rights and institutions, and whoever may exercise
tne powvrs or tne uniel .Jlagistraey, they will be
exerciwl in obedience to the will of the advene

DEATH OF WASHINGTON IRVING.
, A telegraphic dispatch informs us of the demise
of Washington Irving, one of tho most distin-
tinguished of the literary mpn of America, aad
whose name and fame is idUiflod with the lite
rary reputation of ourcountrf. He died on Mon
day evening last, at his residiice, Suhhyside, near
Irvington, New York, in ha'?7th year. ; From
information before us we gatler the following in
teresting outline of his life anj labors :
Washington Irving was xtn in the city of New
York, April 3, n83,"n whtth place his father.
Wm. Irving, had been settlej as a merchant some
twenty years. 1 After roce'vng an ordinary school 1
education, at tbe age of six'en, 1 be Commenced
the study of tbe law. - Threes ears later, he con-
tributod, nider the signatoie of Jonathan Old-
stylo, a series of letters to ti " Morning Chroni
cle, a newspaper of which his brother, Peter Ir
ving, was editor. Tbesejiwnile essays attracted
much notice at tho time, weo extensively copied
by other journals, and in 183 or 1834 were jsol- j
lected And published without the fanction of the
author. In 1804, in conscqtcnce of ill health, he
sailed Tor .Bordeaux, on a visit to Jiurope, and
traveled through the south of France to Nice,
where he took a felucca to Gnoa, in which city he
remained some 'two momte." He then went by
sea to Sicily, aiade the tour of the island, crossed
from Palermo to Nnples, passed through Italy.
meeting Allston at Rome, who strongly recom
mended his devolinz bimlf to art, thence over
the St. Gothard, through Switzerland .to j Paris,
where ho remained sevenl months." He then
went to Hol'and, whence lie embarked for Eng
land, where he spent part ff the autanin, and re-
lurnea io jnw iorK rn Jiarco, louiy compieieir
restored to health. He again resumed the Stud
. . . r . 1 - t r 1 1 . , .
ot the law, and was admitted to the oar in Novem
ber of that yoar, but never practiced. Shortly af
ter he tok the chief part in "Salmagundi," the
firt number of which appenred in January; 1807,
and the last in Jsnuarr, 1308. In December, the
following year, he published his "Knickerbocker's
H'story of New "York." Io 1810, two of hisl
brothers, who wer-i engaged in commercial busi
ness, nne being at the head of ttieestablUhmentin
the city of Nw York, and the other in Liverpool,
eave him a interest in .he concern, with the un-
derstand'ng that ho was not toenter into the du
literary avocations. During the war with Great
Britain, in )813-'U, be - edited the ' Analectic
Magazine," and in the fall of thelatter ver io'ned
the -military staff of the Governor of the Slate of
New York, as aideeamp and snintnry secretary,
with the rank of colonet Or. thecloseof tho war,
Mar, 1815, be embarked for Liverpool,' with the
intention of making a second tour of Europe, but
was prevented by the sudden snd great reverses
which followied the return of peace, overwhelming,
after a struggle ptlwcar three years, in which
Mr. Irving took an active prt,to avert the catas
trophe, the htruse in which his brotheri had; given
him an interest, and involving him in its ruin
In 18)8 he determined to trj his pen as a means of
support, and commenced tbe papers of tbe "Ske ten-
Book," which were transmitted piecemealj from
London, where he resided, to New 1 ork foj puD
lication. Three or four numbers were' thuj pub
lished, when, finding that thev a'tractod notice in
England; he had them published in a volume,
Fedruary, 1820, by Mr. John Miller; but he fail
ing shortly afterj the work wss transferred to Mr.
Hurray, with a second volume, published in July
of that year. Mr. Murray had bought the; copy
rights for 200, but its success far surpassing bis
expectations, he sent .Mr. Irving, of his own ac
cord, first 100; and the sale still increasing, an
additional 100. -After a residence of .five! years
in England, Mr. Irving removed to Paris in Au
gust, 1820, and remained there till July of the
following year, when he returned to England and
published hiVBracebridge Hall," in London and
New York, in May, 1822. ThefoPowing winter
he passed in Dresden, returned to Paris m 1823,
and crossed to London in May, 1824, to publish
his "Tales of it Traveler," which appeared in Au j
a m W 1 JSa t 3 J L ' a-
gust of that yearln two volumes, and in four parts
in New York. In August he returned to iPans,
and in thefntunn of 1825 visited the south of
France, fpendin part of the winter in Bordeaux.
In February, 1826, he left that city for Madrid,
where be reuiainM two years. ' Here be wrote the
life of ''Columbus," which appeared in 1828. In
tbe spring of 1828 he left Madrid on a tour to the
south of Spain, visiting Granada and the main
points mentioned in the "Chronicles of the Con''
Suest of Granada, bv Frav Agapida," of which bo
ad made a rough sketch.' This he prepared for
tbe press at bevflle, and transmitted ; to .London
and NcwiYorkifor publication; it appeared in
1829. In the spring of this year he again visited
Granada, and resided some three months jn the
Alhambra, where be collected materials for the
work published under that name in 1832.' In July
he went to England, being appointed secretary of
legation to the American embassy ia iiOndon,
which office he held until the return of Mr. Mc
Lane in 1831, when after remaining a few months
as charge, he resigned, on the arrival of Mr., Van
Buren. While in England, in 1830, Mr. Irving
received one of the fifty guinea gold medals, pro
vided by George IV., for eminence in historical
composition ; the other was awarded to Mri Hal-
lam, the historian. In '1831,. the. University of
Oxford, England, conferred on Mr. Irving the de
gree of LL. D.f In the spring of 1832 he returned
10 iew xoric, after an arjsence 01, seventeen years.
His return was greeted on all hands with the
warmest enthusiasm ; a public dinner was given
to him, at which Chancellar Kent presided t and
similar testimonials : were offered in other cities,
bQt which he declined. In the summer of this
earhe accompahied Mr. Ellsworth, one of the
commissioners for removing the Indian tribe west
of the Mississippi, and whom he had met on a tour
to the West, on nis expedition. . me most jntor
esting portion of this journey has appeared in the
VTour on the Prairies," published in 1834. j This
was followed in the game year by 'fAbbotsford and
Newstead Abbev," and "Lesrends of the Conquest
of Spain " In 1836 An published "Astoria,'! and
in tne following year be published u The Adven
