Scotch Presbyterian, much celebrated for his eloquence and pious zeal, has been call ed from His charge in Glasgow to take the place of Professor of Moral Philo sophy; in the University of , Aberdeen. On the 11th November the citizens of Glasgow gave him a splendid Dinner, nrevious to his leavins: the place. Bish- op Chase ' of Ohio, was present. We believe Mr.. Chase wenttoEurope some time since to solicit aid for; a Seminary in Ohio. The Lord Provost or the ci tj, who presided at the table, gave the following toast : s Health to Profes sor Chase, and prosperity to the. ris- injz L 'trature nf America, 5 To thik toast Bishop C. made an elo quent; reply, a part of whicli follows : " Who that j contemplates the histo tory of the United States,, does not per ceive that my country is greatly indebt- ed to bcotlanu Jor the habits, ami opin ions, and character of her citizens anil for the genius of her institutions ? Ma ny of her earl y inhabitants, indeed, were Scotsmen. l3ut what. is. more, many of these eminent for their piety and their learning, taught in pur Semina ries, and impressed their own charac ter oh their pupils.
