As the circumstance's pC ouripeople
improve, they wHI think very scri
ously-of -bringing their children into
theTiigh'er! departments and more cost
ly advantages of education. Especi
ally will this be the case, if our cxpec
tations should be reilied this all in
the gathering in of aji abundant har
, vest. . It av i 1 1 be. no
valid 'excuse to
either parents or children, that time
has been lost by the jimpoverishments
of the war, or by thp pecuniary defi
ciencies o a later da v. The obliga
tions of learning arej ri -vi r negatived
by age. , It is altogepier a false pride,
that JPhd-i young people toVdecide,
that they Jare loo o d to study. Tljie
older they are, the greater necessity
there is for constant and laborious ap
plication, Hnd he greater probability
there is, .that th)ey will d;gest and ap

There is a tendency un the part of
our people, to undervalue Southern
institutions and to place ar extrava-
., ( i 'it i
gaht estimate upon the c lieges and
'academies of the North. Ju;t tnke

reason for this,
wo
slixmld never obfi cjt. Hut there is not.
The University of
Vtrginia is, in jev
to the best institu-
cry respect, .equal
tions of learning on thii continent.'' Its
faculty is one of the ablest, most aq
, coniplished, most distinguished arid
rucst complete in; proportion to the
number jof studenti, in the world. Its
standards of scholarship arc as lofty ss
any profession or learned employment
. can require. ' Its (scientific apparatus,
its libraries and t$ material accornmo:
dations are very nearly perfect. And
then, in the truesl sense. of that oficn
misused word, it is the only Unjver
s. sity oil
the continent. Dr. McCosh
may be the President of Princkor,
and, by his great scholarship and tame,
may have thrown a new attraction
around Nassau Hall. But even then,
t i
no impartial aiid qualified thinker can
fall to see, that ti e Institution at jhar
lottesville is vast v superior to the one
in . New Jersey Now why should
our yuiing men forsake the superb col
leges in their own native land, and
seek their mental culture . elsewhere.
If North Carolina is deficient, it does
not necessarily j! followj that (every
Southern State is.' Gen. Lee's ICol-
lege, though noi . equal to the Univer
sity, is a first-class institution! and
should never be overlooked for a
Northern college. There is nothing
to be gained byjthis habit, and, much
to be lost. Wre do not blame a young
man, for refusing an institution jwhose
diploma. would do him, ripcredit. .It
is a very important matter, toj com
mence life with la good literarr endor
-sation. But when Le can obtain such
- a rcental training and outfit' in.lns own
country, and irc,h a potential diploma
as the Univetsity of Virginia Oflers,
we do blame him to go into anothtr
. section.
1 The same principle holds good, and
its application is still more forcib, e. in
jespect to female education. . If the
Old! North Stale has been ploiightd
up and sown with salt, in regard to
j Aht education of her sons, it i not so

respondent says
j 1 ! ee you have got the authorized
version of ,tr. Charles Dickens', re
ported illness. There is no doubHie
is ai ing, butll see no occasion for de
man jing the .sympathy of all creation.
The simple truth is, it is not Charles'
severe literary labors that have tempo
rarily prostratedTiim, so much as cer
tain I indulgeoct.8 'in which he is too
pious, j Charles has forgotten that he!
has grown an old man, and that the
vital energies will hot stand such
drains as he j subjects them to. The
fact is, he has never been the man he
was since his well-krtown liaison with
the notorious Ada Menken. ; 1
