And no one doubU, but the example of a self-governing people three quarters of a century, marching like Time, j and with Timeo the culminating heights of Na tional grandeur. ?lorv and nrosneritv.-has been the political rriumph, whose peals have, at length, j waked up the buried and down trodden masses! of the European people. They knew, Sir, that gov ernment derived its source first from Gotland then from the people whose interests and welfare de- pended on a right exercise and balance oi the monarchy and hierarchyon one nana, and Oligarcny nnd democracy on the other ; because, the two first tended to - tyranny as they had experienced and the two last tended to anaTchy, as all History, an ; fcint and rnodcrn,tsoundly instructed them. Hence I they established a mild, pnre Representative Rc i public, which is the most natural, rational, and -riuitabie form of jrovernment ever devised on earth the best calculkted to develop all the physical, Htitllectual, moral and Rpirttual energies of civilized . men.

The Governors and legislatures of the several States followed their example, and when I know the history of what has been thus accomplished, since 17$9, the year of our adoption of the Con stitution, how lean I despair of the American Re public? , J - ' But, Sir, they only begun the work Imitating their wise and glorious example, we must add to it, and add to it, and let our posterity with her hun dred of millions, in a century more, put on the cap htone and finish it, while shouts of triumph rever berate around a Globe 'Enfranchised, Enlightened and Regenerated ! : This is no visionary political dream Sir. -Fifty yeara ago, the Umtea States have had to do battle sirigle-handed for mankind. The South Americans have since expelled their European task-masters from the soil, except BraziL Now with the press of Britain, France, Germany, Frussia and Poland free, what can stop the pro gress of constitutional liberty and free government in biiropc i At any rate, laying aside ail specula tion, the people of the United States have a most imxrtant duty to perform, in the education of their oflfipring, and their thorough discipline in the his tory, knowledge and practical and familiar exer ciseof free republican rights, duties and privileges under our Institutions. It is to this subject, with great humility but anxious interest, I would invite the attention of your readers. Education in its primitive signification implies that gradual process of leading a human mind from the ignorance and greenness of youth to the knowledge and 'maturity of manhood. In its ex tensive and comprehensive sense, it includes the instruction of tlie nursery arid parental discipline, as well as that of the School Room or the College. It may be physical, intellectual or moral, or all combined and this last is tlie perfection of educa tion. -By the first he has the blessing of a sound body, by the second a sound mind, by the last an enlightened conscience on the great duties and re lations to God, to man to society to his Country. And no man can be educated to any practicalpur pose or benefit, who is greatly deficient in either of these constituents of a good education especially is this true. in regard to the two last, although the first, or physical education is too much neglected. ' Whoever considers the fact, that man more dif fers from inanimate nature and the lower order of animals by the constitution of his mind than in any other respect that two stones might be side by side, and never be conscious of either their: own or another's existence that an inferior animal might go so far by instinct as to know how to break up the kernel of a nut by the use of the stones But to man alone is it competent to distinguish and classify both the minerals and the animals to break up the former and grind them to powder and then reeompose them, and build houses, bridges, canals and roads of them to cut jewels or carve "statues, from them or o render equally subser vient to his purposes all the orders and species of the inferior animals. Reason then is the attribute which exalts man above all nature's other works, and the more highly it is cultivated and improved brings tnm.nearer in resemblance and aflinity to the ureat aupreme; as bpenser near four centuries ago, sung with great judgment, For God Himself, forwisdom most is praised, And men to God thereby, are Highest, raised. By knowledge, we do learn ourselves to know. ; And what to man, and -what to God, we owe." And when we inspect the operations Of the mind, so to speak of a subtle spiritual essence, composed of perception, imagination, memory and judgment, and the principles of the will.and all the efFective faculties ; the moving and melting forces, of the most highly gifted of intelligent creatures how from the light within, it comprehends and illumines external objects and relations how it apprehends, speculates, rememoers and reasons on them how it separates and combines them, in analysis and syntnesis in rcgara to me most subtle and the most complicated ideas how it hales loves suffers enjoys delights desires consures approves how it seizes on the most simple and the most nro- r 1 .rii lit .. . found trains of thought and carries them on to the accomplishment of new inventions or discoveries--how it sparkles in wit, or dissolves in humour how it reasons on the minutest atoms and the most huge masse things which are remote or obscure, as well as subjects of every day practical use and benefit how it notes time, and limits or expatiates over space how it traverses things terrestrial and explores them, and then raises its eager gaze up to things celestial how it grasps things past and present as of time and its own, and reasons of tlie future and of eternity as its speedy and sure rever sion how it investigates all feature and scans ail art whether of Divine or human contrivance r3r workmanship, till like a keen hunter in its ardent pursuit after truth, beauty, honor, and immortality, it has overleap-! all human barriers and worldly obstacles, and is only shut out from a view of the blazing glories of heaven, by tlie resplendeut hues and gorgeous tints which veil the supernal world from the vision of a mortal how it peoples Heaven with angeb and spirits of tried and purified virtue, and enrobes them in innocence, bliss, love and beauty how .haggard and hideous, fiow blackened and horrible it mai.es hell, and its iafamous and invo!untarydeniz:ns howafterahous.ind failures it rises and soars up to the contemplation of the Great White Throne, an d of Him who sits su frejvii, sovereign and Jlikje,, thereon no man conscious within oi capacities so imniort ll, clowino- ' wmi nres as rap:u, and more exalted and ethereal than the electric, can doubt for a moment his di vine affinity his momentous and exalted destiny. He possesses something of the Divinity a spark, it may be, of the immense Eternal Mind, given him to enkindle, to shine and be spent in the service of his God his country his friends and mankind ! ; It is by education that these capacities and powers of tfeo ir.trfds of our Republican youth are to be developed, enlarged aaJ improved and bv wisdo-jp. enVy :ar: they bo made to have a practical bearing and influence on all the great interests of a true, pure and comprehensive patriotism.

Sir, I do not desire tlje humiliation of England for its own sake but I do most ardently and fervently long for the emancipation of the millions of her own countrymen and color, and then will be dis posed to listen more patiently to her arrogant and hypocritical homilies on the defects of Southern Atlantic Institutions. Let her correct her enor mous oppressions at home, in the East Indies,, in the Australian Colonies, in her British possessions in North America, and leave us to work out our Revolutionary problem to her everlasting reproach and disgrace"in History, as the selfish intermeddler with other nations, ani the haughty oppressor of her own countrymen. , JUSTITIA. A Good One. Tlie Buffalo Commercial says, the proprietor of an intensive iron foundry in that city Was complaining to a gentleman, 'one day, that '-the people did not know where his establish ment was, but passed his to other places to procure their engines, machinery, etc." "It is the most- na tural thing in the world," replied the gentlemen, 'A man that neglects to pay fifty dollars a year to give publicity to his business by advertising, can't expect that others will spend their time, or be at any great pains to hunt him up. "The-King and Court." A correspondent of the Washington Union says, that he called upon General Cass to congratulate him upon his nomi nation, when, "greatly to my gratification, and that of tlie friend who accompanied me, I found his reception room gracefully festooned "with wreaths of flowers, and surrounded with bonquets of great beauty and fragrance."

Principal of the Prepara torySchool at Gareysburg Vm. C. Doub, A. M., Principal of the Preparatory, School at llidgeway.' rf The Collegiate year divided into two sessions The first b g tis eight weeks after, and the second 21 weeks before, the 2nd" Wednesday in June. To such as desiro to enter College, it is important that they be in attendance at the opening of the session. A short absence at that time may place a student under disad vantages which will impair his scholarship throughout the session. Our course of study is so arranged as to meet the wants of young men wild desire to acipiirc an extensive English education, without studvitnr the Ancient Languages. The benefit to be derived from the use of the Libraries aud from attendance on the Literary Societies should strongly induce such young men to prosecute their studies here. In order for a student to enter upon the English course, be must be thoroughly acquainted with English Grammar, Geog raphy and Arithmetic. . - The expenses of this Institution are as follows : Board per session 40 ; Tuition aud deposite fee, per session, 22 50, are"$125 for the Collegiate year, ex clusive of incidental expenses, which include the cost of text books, fuel, furniture, &.c, for room in College. We respectfully advise parents that more pocket mo ney than is necessary to supply the reasonable wants of a student is injurious. The practice of contracting debts with tradesmen, in the vicinity of College, is in a high degree pernicious. A law of the State of Vir ginia designed to provide a remedy for this bane of all (Colleges, is to this effect: That any merchant' who shall give credit to a College student, withvut special authority Jrom parent or guardian, shall, upon conviction of the fact, forfeit the debt, forfeit his .li cense, and be fined .)00. Iet parents and guardian have due regard to this law, and where it may be ue cessary to open an account with a merchant, let the individual be designated and the amount specified, and the evil will cease. PREPARATORY DEPARTMENT. Tlie primary object of the Preparatory School, is to prepare young men for College, but the course of stu dy is such as to jnett the wants of the neighborhoods iii which they are located, and to qualify students for the ordinary occupation of life. The School in the vicinity of College continues un der the direction of Mr.W. T. Davis, an able and successful Teacher, and my own immediate sujHTvist ion. .. Its sessions and vacations are the same as those of the College proper. The cost of board, &c., is a little, less than a student of College pays. J Boarding and lodging in private families, including all -necessary expenses, 10 per month, 'l'uitiou per Minm'mu for l'liminulr attulouta.

These gentlemen graduated a few years since at our Institu tion, with a high reputation, and have been teaching with eminent success since that time. The school at Gareysburg wus opened ou the 3d Monday in Janua ry, and that at Ridgeway was opened on, the first Mouday in February, and are in successful operation.

C, at Ridgeway Depot, on the Raleigh and Gas ton Rail Road. 7 I shall give the necessary attention to those schools, and expect, in company with oiie of the officer of the College to attend the annual examinations grade a!J the students, and admit qualified applicants lo lie different classes in College without Jurlhrr examina tion.
