THE NEWS
The Fourth of July was celebrated
throughout the country with great spirit
and in such a manner as have never been
known before.
Tho laying of the corner stone of the
soldier 'a monument on the 4th attracted
an immense throng of people. At day- '
light 100 guns were fired near the camp
on the battlefield. At ten o'clock in the
morning the procusion, beaded by Major
General Geary, moved from the main
street of the town, and the cemetery was
reached in a few minutes before eleven,
where the exercises were opened with
prayer and a discourse by the Rev. Dr.
Tyng, After the reading of a letter from
President Johnson, regretting that, illness
deprived him of the pleasure of being
present,the Masonic ceremonies attending
the laying of the corner stone were gone
through with. General Iloward,the ora
tor of the day, then delivered an oration
on'the sacrifices of the private soldier,
which was followed by a poem, entitled,
" Thoughts of the Time and Place"—
Written and read by Colonel Charles G.
Halpine. Tho exercises were concluded
by an address from Gov. Curtin.
3laxiraillian has issued a manifesto in
relation to popular education in Mexico.
The first anniversary of his landing bas
been duly celebrated by balls, illumina
tions itc.
The President's car containing a num•
ber of distinguished personages from the
Gettysburg celebrAtion,ran into a freight
car at the depot at Baltimore, on the
craning of the 4th, owing to a misplaced
switch. The Chilian Minister and Col.
Chas. G. Halpine,the poet, were severely
cat, and several oaken were injured.

Perhaps we may adduce this fact in

the folly of the old starvation

evidence that the.South.w3ll be free from

such Jew rates for living and the sure de

THE NEWSPAPER APPREO.!ATED.
Witho.ut my newspaper, life would nar
rem itself to the small limits of my per
sonal experieuces, and humanity be com
pressed iuto the 10 or 15 people I mix
with. Now I refuse to accept this. I
have.not a sixpence in eonsule r but I want
to know how they stund. I was never—
, I never in all my likelihood, shall he—in
Japan ; but I have as intense curiosity to
know what our troops.did at Yokohama.
I deplore the people who suffer by the
railroad smash; and I sympathize with
the newly married couple so beautifully
depicted in the Illustrated, as they drove
off in chaise and four, the bald old gent
at the hall door gave them a last adieu.
I like the letters of the correspondents,
with their little grievances about un
punctual trains, or some unwarrantable
omissions in the liturgy. I even like the
paopie who chronicle the rainfall, and re
' cord little fact about the mildness of the
season. As for the advertisements, I re
gard them as the glass and mirror of the
age. Show me but one page of the 'wants'
of any country, and I engage myself to
give a sketch of the civilization of the
period. What glimpse of rare interiors
do we gain by these brief paragraphs !
How full of suggestiveness and 'of story
are they I—Blackwood s Magazine.
General Graut received a letter from
an enterprising attache of a leading New
York journal, calling his attention to the
fact that he had. written up very fully
and flatteringly his journey to Chicago,
and the ovations received on the trip,and
stating that as he (the .writer) was in
straightened circumstances and found
living very expensive, i&e, any donation
that the General might see fit to make as
a compensation would be very gratefully
received, and he might rely upon its be
ing considered strictly confidential. The
perusal of the letter highly amused the
General.
THE TONGUE.-A white fur on the
tongue attends simple fever and inflame

tends a derangement of the liver, and is
common to billions or typhus fevers:
A tongue vividly red on the tip or edge,
or down the centre, or over the whole
surface, attends inflamation of the mu
cous wembrane of the stomach or bowels.
A white velvet tongue attends mental
disease. A tongue red at the tips, be•

making a few remarks ;it 'reference.
_to
the Institute at the close the exercises
on the evening of the 'exhibition,:but
owing to the lateness of the hour thought
it best to seek another opportunity...lt
is our design to make Columbia Classical
Institute a first-class institution, every
way worthy of the cause,country and age
in - which:yre :live 3 :one: that will -afford
students every facility ,for „acquiring a
superior education—preparing them for
ea - liege or teaching,orfor a life of exten•
sive busieess mad usefulness. • During
the. ast year we hare laid well the zo un•
tiation,and are now prepared to take that
position as a literary institution that has ,
been out; Nish and tlesigt. We are di
rectly and deeply itit s eielted in the suc
cess of the Publia'schOols, and the more
thoroughly they do their legitimate work,
the higher-wilt be the standard of educa
tion in the Institute—whatever tends to
promote their interests, is for our advan.
Cage. As the Institute is patronized by 1
all denominations and political parties itl
I is proper to state that the religious and
political convictions of students will in
no way be interfered with, but, as here-
tofore,the largest liberty will be granted
to all in these respects. The peace and
good will which has prevailed in the
School and its increasing numbers, testi
fy to the wisdom of the course pursued.,
To correct reports which are in circula
tion
it is stated that Girls,as day scholars,
will be admitted into the institution as
heretofore. The Academic year of ten
months" has been divided into three
ter_is, instead of four quarters, the first
of which commences on the 7th of Sept.
The rates of tuition are the sameas here
tofore. It is earnestly desirel that Stu
dents enter at the opening of the term.
and that their attendance be as regular
as possible, as but little progress can be
made unless they are regular in attend
ance as well as studious.
The advantages of such an institution
to Columbia ate obvious to all. Its
establishment with forty or fifty boarders
would bring annually into the place sev
eral thousand dollars so that there is not
a merchant or any business man who is ,
not directly or indirectly, pecuniarily in
terested in its success. To those wh
wish to give their children a liberal edu- I
cation it is a saving of three fourths the
expense necessary to send them front
haute to enjoy like privileges. But the',
mere. pecuniary advantages, however
great, are nothing compared with the in
tellectual and moral influences and ad
vantages such an institution affords. To
dispel ignorance, to increase knowledge,
and to develop and beautify mind are ob
jects which commend themselves to every
friend ef humanity,education and refine
ment. In view of such advantages we
earnestly but confidently solicit the hearty
co-operation of intelligent men, and the
friends of thorough education in general.
Grateful fur past patronage we will
strive to merit future confidence and sup
port. H. S. ALEXANDER.

every payment of Premium made, and it
is placed to the credit of the Policy. In
ease of the death of the party insured it
will be payable together with and in midi

For instance, suppose the premium
paid to the Company to be slooper annum,

pay the Company, for the next year, only

When the:,preinium amounts to fifty

paid in a note at twelve months with in

four notes against the policy, but there is
a corresponding number of dividends
standing to the credit of the policy, and
the dividends will be paid in said note 3.
This plan enables the insured to realize
