MCCUNE. for the Preabytertan hammer ana adeoce.e. Lettere from the North. CARROLL COLUMN AT WAUICEIMA. The commencement for the year was observed on the 14th lust., and with more than usual inter est. On Sabbath evening preceding, an address to the. Society of Religious inquiry, was delivered by the Rev. Mr. Heckman, of Pottage City. We had not the pleasure of hearing this address, but were told it was appropriate, and of a high order. On Tuesday evening, we were entertained by au able discourse, addressed to one of the Literary Societies, by Dr. Plumer, df the Allegheny Sem inary. Of this discourse it is sufficient to remark, that it was in the Doctor's usual style—delivered with great freedom of manner, and listened to With uutlred attention for nearly two hours. Wednesday was the commencement proper; but as the exercises did not begin until 2 o'clock P. M., we were at liberty to devote ourselves to rambling, and made a delightful` survey of the ' village and its environe, The entrance into Wau kesha from the Railroad Depot, is not inviting ; belig over a poor bridge, in a lo w and wet part of the town. Bat seconding now to better streets and edifices, and especially to the College build. tug, crowning and overlooking the whole, we doubt if a richer or more attractive scene pre sents itself, in all the remarkable ones of our remarkable country. The village itself (in this part of it,) is handsomely built, and among the oldest of our State; and as we' looked upon it, from the College site, we have been lead to ex. claim, "What a goodly prospect spreads around —of hills, and dales, and lawns, and woods, and spires 1"—of the valley at your feet—the stream meandering through it—the rim like crown of hills beyond—" till all the glittering landscape into smoke decays." There are three aspects in particular, marking this locality, which are striking, and must be highly suggestive, we should think, to the lovers of science resorting here. First, the rim on which the College is built, and which nearly sur rounds the whole village, strongly suggests a vol. Mao origin, or some other convulsion ; then, at the bottom , been opened already, a remark able quarry of rook, said to be of the Silurian order, full of the oldest fossils in the animate creation; if se; suggesting the inference that this valley must have been denuded of all the higher strata, and is conformity with the fact 'that the course of the Fox-Hirer now finds its way through this gorge to its far off connexions. with the South. West. Acid then there are more modern, but equally mysterious , objects, to excite reflec tion. The whole of Cilliege Hill is dotted with Indian Moundf, of variouilormations. Several of these are in tie Campus; and one, which requires no great aid of imaginaticni,to figure a huge quadruped lying on his side. After spending the forenoon in roaming over this interesting soeneryAnd partaking of an ex cellent dinner with the hoapitable President, we repaired to the Presbyterian choral for the exer tiSeß of the Graduating Class. Of the four young dentlemen who took their degrees,. and all of whom delivered orations, we can speak in terms of unqualified respect and approval. The ad dresses were all able and manly, and showed de. cided scholarship and rhetorical powers We could only wish we bad many such Alumni to heighten the prospects of our future lib rnl pro fesions. We were gratified to learn that two of these have already consecrated themselves to the Gospel ministry. The conferring of Degrees fol lowed, and then an affectionate nod impressive Bacalaureate, from the President, addressed to the graduates. Sweet and soul stirring music accompanied these graver exercises ; nor must it he omitted, that a splendid festival, got up by the ladies of Waukesha, came off in the evening, on which, as 4 all the friends of the College were invited to par ticipate," there was no want of attention, whether to the delicacies of the appetite, or " the flow of soul." In a word, the friends of Carroll College have had reason to congratulate themselves on a good commencement, and with flattering prospects for another year. The public will be glad to learn, that the immediate pecuniary embarrassments of the Institution have been relieved ; and will , feel, we trust, as we did, a strengthening desire for its growth and lasting prosperity. The remainder of this letter must be devoted to the somewhat trite theme of Et — mama ; and 1 that the rather, as there is reason to believe that we are not - yet well understood on this and some other subjects. And our first remark is, that the inhabitants of Wisconsin are by no means an ignorant people.• Why should they be? They have, to a great ex tent, come from New York and New England. We do , not believe in being "developed." We brought our manhood with us, and have not been at any time altogether without those appliances which prevent retrogradation. We have one of the best School systems in the United States, and quite sufficient of zeal for progress. The writer of this article supposes be gave the first lessons in Latin and French, ever taught in the city of and that within four years. Now we hems a College and a Female Seminary, while instruction in the modern languages, in Music, Drawing, and Painting, are pursued as common things. Those who suppose we are but half civilized, or that our congregations must be addressed as if there were no scholarship in them, are in error; those lecturers and other speakers, who give us but loose harangues, as if almost any thing would do for Wisconsin, make a great mistake. Even ministers of the Gospel are some times greatly disappointed in this respect. One of them, in a back settlement, told me he lately stepped into a lawyer's office among his people, and found him reading an English copy of Dante. He asked the man if be could relish such an au thor? The man silently walked to his book case, and showed him the original, which he roan fla• ently. Yet our scholars and literary influences are, to some extent, scattered and unorganized; and therefore our second remark is, of the nature of a corollary from the first. It is, Abet what we now want, in this respect, is centres and bonds of in fluence for the development of our literary re sources. We would gather the scattered rays of light and heat, and keep them active. Yet we do not, at present, want more Colleges We want those which subsist to be better sustained, both as to funds and, pupils. Good Academies, to bring forward young men, are of more importance to us than more Colleges ; and then, we must not be forgotten from , abroad, however forbidding the times are, for we are too poor yet to go alone. This leads us to our third remark, which we must beg to have well considered. It is too gen erally supposed, perhaps, that our Colleges are well provided for, in that the State endowments for education are abundant, and that we have a State University. But here we must say, fear lessly, that the State Institution does not, and never can, in the nature of things, provide for liberal education. Any observer must have seen that a State, can never compare, with a voluntary College, for the purposes of general, liberal edn• cation. State politics will ever more or less-min gle in their control. Every new Legislature will be tinkering with them; ignorant partizans will raise new questions annually. Jealousies will ex ist among the people; pupils will not be furnished, and however liberally endowed, these Institutions will ultimately languish. This general result has been illustrated by what we have seen in this State. Madison University, though ably officered and munificently endowed, does not flourish; while our poorer Colleges—Appleton, Beaver- Dam, Beloit, and our own at Waukesha—are fall of hope and promise Our own view is, therefore, that voluntary Institutions are best for us ; and that denominational lead In a College is no objec tion, but rather desirable, if it but be connected with liberal principles, and a fair administration. Let our voluntary Colleges, therefore, be prin cipally relied on. We do indeed need more en dowments. We almost perish, at times, for the want of them. But the people and the Churc favor us; and we had rather struggle still hard er than lean on mere State influences. Fourthly, as a still further encouragement, we wish to say to our friends abroad, that the good people of this-State are not fanatics. It might sometimes be inferred, perhaps, that they were, from the papers, and the mistaken modes of ad dress adopted by certain lecturers. Some lee thrers, and other public speakers, address us as if they took i, for granted we were all ultra mho litioniste, and that they must foam a little on this subject, or not please their audience. Certain papers, perhaps, will foster this impression, and anon we have an extravagant commendation of the bold young 'man, or student; how splendidly he did show up the old fogies and conservatives! But the fact is, after all, that the majority of his hearers were conservatives, though they held their peace. We must not be judged abroad, therefore; by these ebullitions of beardless Young America. The whole body of the people are indeed anti slavery, and strongly so. We shall go against it, unitedly, boldly, perseveringly, in all reason able ways ; but what we object to is, being judged by ostensible appearances, because we do not mingle in every brawl, or choose to reply to every effusion. We have ever supposed it a good motto, (of Presbyterianism especially,) to act - rather than talk—to make sure of the right, and then go straight onwart We have no reason to doubt that the better part of all our citizens mean to be actuated by the same wisdom. • for the Preebyterien Banner and Advocate. Tribute of Respect. At a meeting of the Philadelphian Literary So ciety, of Olome Institute, the following resolu tions were adopted : Inasmuch as it hath pleased God in the mys terious dispensations of his providence, to remove by death, Miss Maggie George, an active and val uable member of our Society; therefore, Resolved, That in thisefflictive dispensation, we recognize the hand of Him who doeth all things well," and bow in humble submission to his will. Resolved, That while we deeply mourn the loss, of one, who, by her artless simplicity of manner, amiable and affectionate disposition, combined with unaffected piety, won the hearts of all who knew her, we sorrow not as those who have no hope, believing that our friend has but exchanged her conflict, for a crown of life which fadeth not away. Resolved, That we tender our heartfelt sym pathies to the bereaved . parente, who bad learned, ere this, by the loss of three daughters, that separations are painful even though the loved ones have but preceded them to the •.land of the blessed," and we desire to commit them to the care of Him who •• woundeth and maketh whole." Resolved, That the members of this Society, wear the usual badge of mourning thirty days, as a testimonial of respect for the deceased. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be transmitted to the family, and also that they be published in the Banner and Advocate, and the United Presbyterian. By order of the Society. July, 1868. Dew pepartntent The Lottery. We, last week, spoke a few' words about the Lottery enterprise, and that a few of those con cerned had been proseouted and mulcted in the penalties of the law. Boit seems that real lot teries are not enough to satiety the avarice of man. Bogus ',omens must be got op. A imheme over the siguatute of J. B.

Tbis man "appears," says the gazette, " to have opened his office here as late as the 20th of June, 1868, in the building of Barr & Moser, on Smithfield Street, opposite the Poet Office. To the room the Mayor proceeded, and there found an immense amount of material, consisting of circulars, letters, schemes, gift concert tickets, show prize tickets, cuts, figures, types of various sorts, lists containing the names of men in almost every township in Western Penn sylvania and Ohio, ledgers, day-book, blank tick• ets, etc., etc., making a mass of objects wonder ful to behold " The said Wood was held to ball in the sum of $2.500, for a further bearing. It is possible that our "Smoky City," or "City of Smoke," may, ere long, lose its title to the ap pellative A manufacturer, who takes a deep in". terest in the consuming of' smoke, hands to the daily press several letters which speak very highly of an invention, patented and used at Clyde and at Amsterdam, N.

The Pittsburgh, Fort 'Wayne, and Chicago Rail road, has placed in its line, six of Woodruff's Patent Sleeping Cars. They are mid to be an immense convenience to travelers. This we can readily believe. We have often wobdered *by cars were not so made that berths, as in , the old Pennsylvania canal Packets, could be put up for those who, from necessity or choice, might pros ecute their journey, by night. On one of these comforts a few of the gentlemen of the.press, were taken from our city to Sewickley, a few days ago, and they give a glowing description of the pleasure to be anticipated in a nocturnal ride. We were not of the party, but we shall hope that on our next jaunt Westward, we shall be favored with a locality in the Woodruff Car. This question, between, the "United States and the British Governments, is settled as to the prin ciple. The ground is, that no government vessel of either nation has a right to search, interrupt, or in any way molest, any trading vessel belong ing to or "sailing ander the proller authority of, the other nation. But neither the British flag nor the American will protect. a pirate. The marauder, hoisting the flag of a friendly power, cannot thereby shield himself from capture. 'Only the vessels really belonging to the country will be protected by the hag. How then may a pirate or slaver be seized, since any one can raise any flag? It is on sea just ae on the public streets. A constable May seize aay man be meets, under the allegation that he is a murderer or robber. If he is really such, the officer is sustained. But if the person arrested is an hon est, peaceful man, the offieor must suffer. He acts under a responsibility, and must beware that he meddles not to the injury or annoyance of an innocent and peat:era]. man . So with these constables of the ocean. They have a work to do. They mast seize robbers. But let them beware. If they interfere with bonest commerce, they are held responsible. Let them \ then have god evidence of the evil character of the craft, before they stop it and search it. This is the title of a new British Colony, about to be organized, on the Western side of North America. A. bill is before Parliament to this end, and its passage regarded as certain. It will comprise all tha British territories bounded on the South by the United States frontier; on the East by the water•ehed between the streams which flow into the Pacific, and those which flow into the Atlantic and Arctic Oceans; on the North by the fifty.fifth' parallel of latitude; and on the West by the Pacific, including also Queen Char lotte's Island, and all the islands adjacent, except Vanoouver's Island. This left, is already a vo lony, but it may be incorporated into New Caledonia, at any time, on an address of the two branches of its Legislature. The miking of this a crown Colony, and &- tog its.

By the death of Mr. K., the community has lost a valuable, respectable, and respected citi zen. Re was a piing man of fine business talents, pleasing and polished in his manners, and amiable and generous in disposition. To know him was to love him. He was, truly benevolent, and nontributed willingly and liberally to good causes and worthy objects. lie bore his suffer ings patiently, and desired to bide them as much as possible from his mother and sisters, choosing rather ; to suffer than to be the cause of suffering to others, se great WEE his regard for the happi ness and welfare of, these around him. He died expressing his love for the Saviour. He leaves a large circle of mourning relatives and friends ; but they mourn not -as those who have no hope. Dran—ln Camden. Indiana, on the 3d of July, MARGULET ELLEN WDONAID, in the 16th year of• her age.. That one so young and amiable in life should thus early pass away, seemsstrange." But it tioes not become us to question the wisdom of Providenoe, but submit, - and say, " Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in thy sight." There were many lovely traits in her character, which won for her the affection and esteem of all who knew her. She was the pride of the circle in which she moved. But all these things, could not free her from the last enemy. The messenger is sent, and she falls beneath the stroke. _ Her sufferings, for many days severe, were borne without a mur muring word. She seemed ,to forget the suffer ing of the body, in concern for the soul. Great was her•desire to be clothed upon with Christ; to be assured that she was washed from her sins in his blood.• And although doubts sometimes ap peared to surround her, yet her end was calm and peaceful. Her last testimony was, that Jesus was 'precious to her soul. Let those who mourn weep not as those who have no hope ; but let them rejoice rather, that their loss is her in finite gain. And let the young be admonished wisely to consider the warning, "Be ye also ready, for at such a time as ye thinknot, the Son of Man cometh." "- M. DIED—At Lane, •111., June 13th, 1858, Mrs. ANN M. PRISBIE, wife of IL = 11. Friable, and daughter of the late Alex. Adams, Esq., of Walla ington Pa., in the 33d year of ., her age. The deceased spent the greater portion of her life at Washington, Pa., where she made a profes sion of ; religion, and united with the. Presbyterian church. With her husband.she came West in the Spring of '67, where bright prospects were before them, both for usefulness and, temporal prosperity. Uniting with the Presbyterian church in the place of their new home, they became identified, at once, with its interests, audits work. Bat her course was short. In that short course, however, she made herself Many friends, who mourn herloss, though she was comparatively a stranger. Her diseaie was lingering, but- her sufferings not excessively severe. She bore it all with Christiau,patienne and resignation. Retain ing her senses up to within thirty minutes of her last struggle, she spoke calmly of her death, ex pressed her willingness to go, if it were God's will, and a firm reliance on her Baviour. She leaves a husband arid many friends to mourn her loss, and an infant, a few weeks old, who will never know the worth of the mother that has been taken from him. S.N.B.

READ, in the 69th year of his ag,e• . t Mr. Read was born in Cecil County, Md., and removed with his father to Centre County, ?S., in 1794, 40 thence, in 1803, to Clearfield County., Here he lived more than half a century, enjOyini in a high degree the esteem and affectionate re l gard of all who knew him. His bereaved com panion and children, and a large circle of friends, mourn hie death, but they have evidence in his life and death that their loss is his gain. For weir a quarter of a century be was known as a follower of the Redeemer, and for about eighteen years served the Presbyterian church in Clear field in the office of Ruling Elder. He was modest and retiring in his disposition, and averse to any position of prominence, yet ever ready to co-operate with his brethren in promoting the interests of the Church. With humility and in dependence upon Divine grace, he so fulfilled the duties of a husband, father, friend and Christian, as to leave a name which is a sweet savor in the memory of his friends. His death was peaceful gently falling asleep in the arms of Jesus. On the day preceding it, lie set his house in order, and then, on being asked if he could now repose with confidence in the Saviour, he said, I can; Jesus has always been very kind to me, and be will not forsake me now." The rod and staff of the'great Shepherd were evidently with him, and we doubt not that his dwelling place is now in God's bouse. . eAROVIAIt ABM SAIIETSIOS CELEBRATED , FAMILY SEWING. !WHINES 495 BROADWAY, NEW YORK, 780 CHESTNUT STREET, PRILADELPRIA. ‘T. • .
