UTrMe independence is a prize i u muse possessing it more dear, By far more precious in their eyes, Than any other 'neath the skies.; A lose we find it here. Let those who fooiishly suppose, I Thai'in the city halls aJone. Are always. found the ismartet beaux; (And thus their ignorance expose,) V i sit the fa i me i hum e. And there theyVo ever sn-re to find, Within the evening circle bright. As "stately forms" with hearts and mind. Enriched with gems of choicest kinds, Lit up with viitue's light. And others too, there do at night, .A round the sqciaf fireside come; Whose; cheeks are red, and eyes are bright,! Whose; forms are fair, and steps are light, Within the farmer's home. And yet another home is 'given Io us poor mortals here below: And when from -earthly homes we're riven; W-e'li -find a belter one in Heaven: Eternal joys to know. M. B. From the Raleigh Register. UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLI NA ANNUAL COMMKNCE MENT, &c. Regarding Education as the great ?onser vatorof our free Institutions, it always gives us pleasure to recordevidences of its growing H m porta rvce in public estimation. The last was Commencement week at Chapel Hill the seat of our University and we im agine we shall be borue out in the assertion fay all present, that a more imposing and brilliant occasion has never been witnessed !iu lite Republic of Letters in North Caroli na. Kin commencement day (ihursday) it was computed that at least fifteen hundred persons were present at the Exercises. among whom, were some of the most distin guished citizens of the State, besides an unusually large number of Trustees, and the greatest collection of Ladies ever before seen a circumstance of much more impor tance to the young gentlemen of the Col- Siege, than all the rest combined. We are highly gratified to state, that the situation of our University was never more prosperous than it now is. The hiiih and acknowledged--reputation of the learned gentle'pen who compose its Faculty, with t President at their head, eminently quali fied by nature and education for his respon sible position, entitles the Institution to the Meommandiiig and lofty7 influence which jfpwblic opinion is now disposed to admit asj ts due. The fo!IowingS?5lstecs of the Uniyersi- sty were in attendance, viz: ins L.xcei- lency Gov. Graham, hx-bovernor More- Ohead, Hon. D L Swain, James Mebanc, Esq. Dr. James Webb, John D. Hawkins. Esq Hon. Wm. H. liattle, Charles Man iy, Hugh Waddcll, Esquires, Hon. Jno. H Bryan, Loiiis D. Henry, Charles L. Hintonj Robert B. Gilliam, Nicholas L Willams, George F. Davidson and Weston R. Gales, Esqtiiies. The Public Exercises, which commence!1 n Tuesday, were continued each day un til the evening of Thursday. On Tuesday t 4 o'clock j Pi M. a Sermon was preach ed to'the Graduating ( Jass, by the Kev Vlr. Gilchrist, of P'ayetteville, from Corin ihians I. Ch. 13, v. II and 12.

Upon reaching 'he Chapel, it opened, and the Procession entered in reversed order. After the immense auditory were seated. the Annual Address was pronounced before ihe tNo Literary Societies, by Ihe Rev. ii r. uavis, oi aaiisDurv. vv-e express, we r- w m re confident, the general sentiment, when we say that a more chaste, beautiful and ippropriate effort shas been rarely elicited. Its subject was the capacious pqwers of the Mind, and the high duty of j cultivating them to mil expansion, and the Add res ibounded with cogent reasoning, classical a allusions, and the aptest illustrations, while a vein of enlightened piety ran through the whole, and bespoke the sacred character of the speaker. We hope to see this Address in print, though we heard that its author with characteristic modesty, bad declined such publicity. i j On Wednesday afternoon, there was a most interesting meeting of;the Alumni As sociation, at which Oov. Morehead presi ded. No less than ten Alumni of the In stitution have died since the; last Com mencement, and very interesting Biography ical sketches of each were read by diti'eient members of the Association, viz: 1 Of Hon. James Martin, by Charles Man ly, Esq. Of William S. Mhoon, by Hon. W. H. Battle, Of Hon. Joel Hoi leman, by Geo. F. Davidson, Esq. Of! Professor Edward D. Simms, by Profes ior Greene. Of Robert H.

The afiernoon was so far advanced. when the interesting exercises of the Al umni Association were brought to a close, hat there was not time to hold the Anni versary meeting of the Historical Societ) of the University. We obtained a copy, howeve.,of the very valuble Report pre pared for the occasion by the Secretary Tutor Phillips, and shall publish it entire in our next. j At night, there was Declamation by Ihe following young gentlemen, Members Ol he Sophomore class, viz: 1. Lionel L. Levy, (So. Carolina,) Mc Duffie on the 'Removal of the Depos- ltes. . William H. Howerton, (Halifax, Va.) Osgood on the ''Removal of the Depos- lies. 3. Eli W.

Manly, (Raleigh,) Eulogy on Henry Clay. (Anonymous.) It will be perceived on consulting the! flist of Speakers on the evenings of day and Wednesday, that there were resentatives lrom ix oiaiea in me a fact, of itself, illustrating most 'strong ly the estimate in which the University isj held abroad.- Thursday was the Annual Commence ment, and was day of exhiliratmg inter Cam-rmed, as on Wednesday, but a much moreB crowded, exhibiting a rare assemblage oi gbeauty, fashion and intelligence. The fol lowing was the Order of Exercises for the Kt,3y viz; FORENOON. 1. Sacred Music. 2. Prayer. 3. Saluiay Oration, (in Latin,) Thomas F. Davis, Salisbury. 4. Oration.

The Orations delivered by the young gentlemen above amed, were ol course original, and left on the auditory not only a deep impression of their own intellectualj acquirenvents, but ol reflected honor wor thy of the distinguished literary re puia lion, zeal and industry oi tne neaus oine College. The Senior or Graduating class consist ed of the following gentlemen, viz: Wil liam E. Barnett, Joseph i. B. Balchelor, Charles Bruce, Peter G, Burton, Ralph P. Buxton, Samuel J. Calvert, Samuel W.

Stone, George V. Strong. Thomas J. Summer, Leonidas Taylor, Samuel D. Wharton, Thomas E. Whyte. The sight of so many young men who, af ter a daily association for four years, were bout to separate, perhaps never to cneei again, awakened the mosi.Uvely emotions even in those who had been long accustom-j ed to such scenes. May the hopes and lond anticipations vvnicn ani mate their young hearts and enihusiastic temperaments, be all realized on the greats theatre of life! 1 he Degree ot LJacnelor oi Arts was conferred, in couie, on the several Mem ers of Graluatinir class.
