Mr. Rankin's Academy, in the immediate vinity of Lexington, N. C. The school has only been in exist ence about twelve months, and yet the intelligent spec tator and listener, unapprized of facts, would have given a much longer time, and greater age to the institution, as he witnessed the progress of the examination of the different classes, on the Latin and Greek languages, Algebra, Geometry, &c.

The country bfetween the Nueces and Rio Orande never was, in any just sense ofthe term Texan or American soil. Texas had claims to it, but those claims were unsettled, unadju dieated." ji The Delta, itjinust he remembered, is Dem ocratic authority.' CONFERENCE. The N. C. jConference of the M. E. Church SouthHis now holding its annual session in this; place. Bishop Andrews of HE .MARCII, TO THE RIO GRANDE, i Georgia, presides. A large number of Ike rflUWado of the Administration and ' Preachers arejjn attendance ; but from the uniavoraoie state ot the weather compar- pettttM othcrs.-4 in the paths of virtue and religion, and guarded against seduction and crime. After the examination was over, the audience was entertained by a number of speeches from the students. In this performance, we were pleased to see the germs of oratory very clearly developed, and the promise of the future statesman, &c, to be perpetuated. Let Lexington and her citizens and the surrounding country, cherish and suiyort this rising institution, and by their vigilance and patronage, raise it to the standard of our high school. And to accomplish this, it only needs patronage. Young men can now be prepared for the Junior Class in College. Mr. Rankin is enlarging his buildings, which will be in readiness by the middle of next January for the accom modation of students. Board can be had on cheap terms with the proprietor, or in the village in genteel families. The health ofthe village and surrounding country has been very good for the last twelve months. The socie ty ofthe village is good, and has preaching every Sab bath. We hazard nothing in saying, that the; society of Lexington in point of excellence will compare with any other village in our State. And further, that no parent will have cause to regret that he has placed his son with Mr. Rankin, who has had successful experience in the training of youth. Great pleasure was expressed by the spectators, generally, as I had on that day opportunity of hearing, and since then. I rejoice to see in this part of my native State, a grow ing interest on the subject of education. Schools of val ue, worthy of the patronage of our intelligent citizens, boih male and female, are springing up, where our sons and our daughters can receive a solid education, and jn ! very many instances a christian education. Not barely a sectarian bias, but solid, bibte, morality and Christiani ty ; Apostolic learning and bias. Men are found in these School, Academies, and Col leges, who are the worthy representatives of our depart ed Caldwells and Wilsons ; ladies, who worthily repre sent their predecessors, ofthe best type of fornier times. Nejed we refer the public mind to the schools of Hills borough, Greensborousrh, &,c, where a Wilson, a Mor- I gan, See., preside 1 Men of piety, men of science ahd I of stern integrity, whom we delight to honor.! Let our j men of science, let our statesmen, let our pulpits, and jet our presses, yea, lei every patriot speak out in the praise, I in the defence, and support of these nurserys of learning, piety, and moral principles ; and posterity will bless ' them, and heaven will smile upon them.
