Punch l In his last nnmher Is a design called

SErn Of Austria as a jailor, with one foot upon
a massive block, npon which .is carved tho
word Veneiu. His Intporial Majesty stands
With folded arms, ono httnd holding a hunch
of keys,-7-mammoth koys, In fact, such as
would ha carriod by a rongh-and-rcady jailor,
in amelo-drama. ■ Ho sternly regards a female
‘figure, who is evidently intended for Italy. In
one hand this sculptured damosol sustains a
wand, surmounted by the Phrygian cap of lib
erty. But she is chained, baud and foot, by.
i massive fetters, strongly welded into the rock
Vkkbtu. By her side stands Napoleon tho
Third, “Emperor, by tho Graco of God and
the will of the French People His Majesty,
who startod from Paris with tho avowed pur
pose of liberating Italy “ jVom the Alps to the
Adriatic,” (but conducted tlio.performaucc ab

unactod), is represented in tho act of placing
tho Papal Tiara upon the head of fettered
Italia, and this cumbrous erown acts so much
as on extinguisher that only the lower part o f
tho faco is visible.
Punch has a few hits In verse. The best we
subjoin:

Finally, and to conclude, wo subjoin a more

Why ask antecedents ? Why hint of ft doubt ?

That he's come to w*t Italy free—very froo—
Look ngnin, little doars, clear ns mud it must bo,
That his promise is kopt, nnd that Italy’s free 1
True, you might havo asked voice as to sheathing the

You might have wished Piedmont to put m her word j
Might have wished the Mack vulturous broad wings to be

For somo folks not so much and fnc some folks more

Might havo wished one United Itaba to bo—
But a truco to your wishes and wants—aren’t you free ?
Yes—only look hard enough; plainly you’ll see,
That Italy’s free—oh—exceedingly free!
Of the Pope at your head—that kind well-meaning
man
You aro free to mnko just the best use that you can:
With an Austrian rivet on log and on arm,
To prevent you from making too froo to your harm,
And a Tuscan grand-duko and a MoJomono 100,
And a youthful King Boinhi-who’s freer limn you i
Of course you’ro not free to bito. stiuggle.and kick:
Austria'smaxim is still, “Spoil tho child, spare the

You can’t wish to bo free, to make rumpus and row;
You don’t know what's good for you, of courso you'll al-
low— #
Bo to pastors and masters oliodiont you’ll l>e,
Like a good littlo Italy—though you are free.
Free—freo—from tho hltoro to tho son—
From the Alps to the Apponines—freo, ell so froo!
These pocralcts, American and English, em
body the popular ojdnion respecting Napo
leon’s giving beaten Austria such unexpected
and unmerited good conditions of pence. Per
haps, were the truth known, he acted only on
the safe principle of not thrusting his hand
farther out than he could safely draw it back

T duee from this mass of confusion, that ab«ut.the
year 1780, several schools were established within i
Washington county, which, after years of nncxnm- 1
pled hardship, boroto- endurance, and undaunted
zeal, advanced in literary ofinraotor under the di
rection of a band of men lustrous with nobility of
mind and heart, until, “ from this nucleus grew
eventually tho Canonsburg Academy, and then
Jefferson College.”
The charter tor this,, tbo first literary institution
in tho Valley .of the Mississippi, was granted in
1802, and, as Hs cnreci; since that period haq been

of eminent and cnorgotio talent. Tho buildings ■

ries and improvements in • tho department of .

with tho age. The situation and surroundings of
Canonsburg render it peculiarly suitable ns a loca

it needs “ material aid” occasionally, and the libe

endowment of the Greek Professorship, which, for
nearly forty years, has been tho position of Br.

glorious oaroor, substantial growth, and prosperous .

Tho exercises of the “ Commencement? w.ere in
augurated by tho delivery of tho Baccalaureate sor
mon, on Sabbath morning, by tho President. His
theme was “ Tho Soldier of tho Cross,".requiring,
for triumphant warfare, courage, ability, interest
and eonfidcuco iu tho loader. . Iu tho evoning of
tho samo day, tho sermon befqro tho religious so
cioties was dollvored by Rov. A. Ml. .Milligan, of .
Westmoreland county,’Pa, Ills text was selected
from Isaiab, flth chapter, and part of Bth versoi
“Whom shall I scud, and who. will.go forU3?”
This discourse was marked' by sound sentiment,
vigorous expression, and pondorous thought. On
Tuesday ofternoon, tho historical sketoh of the
class of 1829 was read by Rev. John Eaglcson, of
Buffalo, Pa, This class, numbering at tho time of
graduation 84 members, celebrated its thirtieth an
niversary. But few of tho number were prosont to
hoar this review of their three decades; and al
though there bo may somo degroo of intorost In hear
ing of eomrado9 alain, seattored, and successful in
lifo’a conflict, it is certainly a melancholy task and
occasion. As tho author of this sketch romnrkod
to his classmates who were present, in tho language
of another, “ Spring is strickon from tho soatons—
ouf youth is to more."
* Tho performances of Tuesday evoning eonstotod
of tbo Valedictories and responses of tho lttorary
societies, delivered .by members of tho senior and
junior classes, respectively, as follows: Franklin

Philo L. Society—Valedictorian, R, L. Maclay,
MUroy, Pa.; response, J. Anderson Millikbn, Aca
demia' Pa- These were delivered In tho chapel,
and wore listened to with unusual interest and at
tention. Tho valodiotory by R. L. Maclay was
beautiful and touching.
At night an iramonso andienco assembled to hear
tho address bofovo tho literary societies by Cassius
M. Clay. Tho expectations of the people wore
highly wrought, and all soemed eager to give tho
Kontuoklan a hoarty and joyous wolcome. Mani
fest ns was their enthusiasm wbon “ Cassius” oamo
forth—as if tho anxious audience had said, “ Help
its, Cassius, or uv sink”—it was equally manifest
that tbo said “ Cassius” had allowed them to stn/r
most snrprisingly ere he had proceeded very far in
bis performance. His theroo wns “Tho Li fa and
Character of Benjamin Franklin.” Aftor a brief
historical sketch, ho proceeded to examino his at
tainments and philosophy in economics, science,
religion, and politics. It would certainly require
but very llmltod ken to discover that there was an
ontlro lack in tho speaker of refined literary taste
or fibility, or else that he, with an unpardonable
disregard of tho causo and occasion, ohoso to parado
with peculiar effrontory his own blttor partisan
prejudices and muddled theories in politics and
religion. His manner may bo ploastng and effect
ive on tho stnmp, but if his slang stylo and sha
dowy substanoo on this ocoaslon aro to ho taken as
modols for literary productions, tho study of rhe
toric and logic may bo safely abolished, as being
superfluous and iinjtoh'tc.
True, he said many sensible tilings, but hU mode
of expression aud dollvory, added to his wrotchcd

On his homoward route ho passed somo. time in

Wo attach to this- notico an extract fromtho Paris

Tho ’Exhibition <jf Paintings, in tho Pnlais de
l’lndustrie, 2 closed 'eliSundaylnri? on which d*iff
over 00,000 persons Visited tho galleries. The next
day tho distribution of prizes took place,and lam
happy to stato that an Ainerioan artist' received
from tho French jury an honorable mention. Mr.
P. F. Roth'errael, of Philadelphia, the person J re
fer to, only arrived In Paris some six weeks before
tho opening of tho Exhibition, and' was obliged to
send m his paintings unfinished.- But oven then;
the force of the drawing and coloring wore so,
conspicuous as to .merit a special mention
from those appointed by tho Stato to award
tho prizes to the artists judged tho most meritori
ous. Count Nieunorkerke, the Director of, the
Pino Arts, said In tho'discourse' he mndo tothe
assemby, that an honorable mention vro& equiva
lent to a modal; ;that those mentioned did not got
modals owing to tho limited number {.but, that tho
jury felt InTioriOr bound to notico such artists as
received tbe mention, 1 .Mr. Rothertocl’s works
havo bcon duly noticed by tho Paris as well as some
of tbe Londoikoritics, and all agree in praising the

witU pleasant anticipation to the next Exhibition,
on which occasion tuis 'a'rtißl is to expose a grand
tableaux. Mr. Rothermel sailed yesterday in the
Ocean Queen, from Havre, for tho United States,
ifo takes with him the tableaux that attracted so
much attention in this Pity.' I am assured that
Eovoral offers wero made for these paintings, by
our connoisseurs here, hat they were no longer
