But, Gentlemen, no delight or gratification could re-

reason and experience were satisfied of their utility.
—I am satisfied that the privileges of the academic
youth of this University, which have been enjoyed
for so many ages, are most beneficial to your Aca-
demical Institutions. They serve to promote in-
dustry, to lighten bediencei to enforce discipline,
and to attach the students to the University.—
It seems to me that all great seminaries should serve
but as a means for preparation for the active duties
of life. lam satisfied that the original' institutions
of this seminary, which conferred upon the youth the
election of their First Magistrate, have been wisely
contrived, for they have never exercised that valuable
privilege without doing honour to themselves and the
University. In looking over the list of names of
those who have been raised t-, that distinguished emi-
nence by their suffrages, I observe no name that I
should wish to be expunged. They have always used
this privilege wisely and honourably. Their minds
are not yet influenced by venal or interested motives,
and their voices are more to be valued than if they
had been moved by considerations which influence
persons of riper years, but of less disinterested feelings.
Besides, the calculations of probability Ate in this
respect confirmed by experience; the holders .of this
office have uniformly been such as were recommended
to the youthful minds of the students by some emi-
nent claims to distinction in rank and .station, or in
science and literature, in legislation, its the useful
arts, in the science of Government, or in some de-
partment of public business beneficial to the country.
Is it nothing that the youths of this University should
be trained in their earlier years 'to exercise those func-
tions of duty which they may In maturer years be

ladders. The villains, when the coach arrived at the
spot, called on the guards to stop; this the latter re-
fused, when instantly a fire was opened from b
sides of the road. The horses turned quickly round,
and the pole of the coach was broken. The villains
continued to discharge their pieces, and we are sorry
to state, that one of the guards received three slugs
io the abdomen and hip ; and the other, after having
forehead lacerated by a shot, received a ball in

THE GLASGOIV UNIVERSITY.

INSTALLATION OF 'FITE LORD RECTOR.
GLASGOW, JANUARY 4.
Considerable anxiety was manifested yesterday to
witness the Installation of Sir JAMES Nlacxmosit
a, Lord Rector of this University. The doors of the
College Hall were opened at half-past two o'clock
for the admission at students, and at three to the Pub-
lic. The hall and galleries were crowded to excess,
and numbers went away who could not possibly tab-
trin admittance. Soon after three o'clock the Lord
Rector entered, accompanied by a number of the
Professors and distinguished friends, amongst whom
were, the Lords BILUAVZS, GILLIES, and ALLo-
ear ; the late Lord Rector; Mr. CAMPBELL, of Blyth-
wood; and Messrs. Comm:um, Mosattlestr, MUR-
RAY, and TuoMsoN. Sir JAMES MACKINTOSH was
received with the most enthusiastic cheering, and
lasing taken the accustomed oaths, be addressed the
Members of the University in an eloquent speech,
which derived additional interest from the considera-
tion that it proceeded from one who had conferred
honour on his native land, by the humanity which
oi,tingui,hed his exertions for the reformation of our
criminal jurisprudence, by the soundness of his phi-
losophical views, and by the manly and independent
manner in which he had uniformly made his brilliant
t darts available in the public cause.
Sir James MACKINTOSH began by expressing his
riacere and hearty thanks for the high, unmerited,
and unexpected honour to which he had been raised
by the suffrages of this University. So unexpected
was the honour, that the election was completed be-
fore he knew he was a candidate. In addressing his
hearers, he was placed in a situation of great diffi-
culty and delicacy. The tone of those calm and mild
studies to which this University was consecrated,
would not permit politics to intrude herself upon
tirem, and his voice had for a long time been raised
in political contention. Universities are of value only
for the production of those purposes which all good
men, of all ages and sects and parties, equally esteem
and equally cherish. Nothing is to be studied and
contemplated here, but that which is to render men
good subjects of a just Government— (Great applause).
lle felt himself honoured by the consideratien of the
illustrious competitor to whom he was opposed (Sir
Walter Scott). He would with great pleasure
.have
taken this opportunity of saying of him in public,
what he had uniformly said of hem in private, if so
much praise and admiration had not already been paid
him by his friend and predecessor (Mr. Jefftel)—the
effect of whose encomium he would not mar by at-
tempting to repeat in less skilful phrase. Speaking of
his own feelings, be would have considered it no loss of-
honour to have been vanquished by such a competitor.
The presence of his excellent friend, the late Lord
Hcctor, restrained him from saying all he could wish
to say respecting him ; " but I am sure," said he, " no
man who knows use will think that I under-rate my
own feelings, in the general assertion, that he is a
man at least a, much beloved as he is admired by his
readers and his hearers. He is as much the darling
of those Societies of which he is an individual mem-
ber, as he is almost a solitary instance of a long and
brilliant literary reputation, joined to a professional
career of equal length and brilliancy." He would be
careful that there should not escape him a single ex-
pression which might create the least irritation. He
would do his utmost to preserve concord and good-
will within the University. It his own character was
not sufficient security, that lie would not depart from
Ely.e rules, he had then beside him, two of the dearest
Mends of his youth (Lords Gullies and Alloway) who
had raised themselves to the highest judicial situa7
'tors in the country, and lie was sure that even their
friendship for him would not sanction party politics.
—ln reverting to the honour done him, he remarked
that this was one of the most flattering distinctions
tint could have been conferred upon him ; for it is
Peculiarly gratifying to those immerseilin political
affairs, that any part of their conduct should receive
the calm approbation of those devoted to study. He
eatly prized any literacy honour from a Scottish
niti,rsity,
and more especially from so distinguished
a smoinary, where he •had received isicown educa-
lien,. It. timinsleal of that periodof life, and of
those stenes.,w)sere he cletived tltatiOneof literature,
tihich has been the flevet-ilifini,

apt
strigloped of its subtilties, has retained all ite vigour,
and itilisefiriness.- Theeis now, Gentlemen,. none,
of that tpirit of hostility- to our countrymen of other
persuasions, that formerly was said to distinguish thoi
,people of this country. This spirit of intolerance is.
fast wearing away from wrerr.eountry... Catholic
Chapels are now erected at Amsterdam and Geneva ;
I have seen a Catholic Bishop at Boston, and-even in
`Glasgow is a Catholic Chapel, probably the most
beautifal in the- island"—(Partial disapprobation).—
When silence was restored, Sir. James, in continua.
tion, observed, with great animation and effect, that
those who had manifested symptoms of disapproba-
tion, would probably have withheld them, had they
waited for the following sentence:—" Far be it from
me ever to assertlany sentiment inconsistent with
my original convictions of the doctrines of a sin-
cere Protestant—or with the most determined op-
position to the arbitrary doctrines and dominant
and intolerant spirit of the Church of Rome.—
On the contrary, the reason that I rejoice in the ex-
istence of such a Catholic edifice is, that it proves
that the stain of intolerance has been wiped away
from the Protestant Church—( Universal applause).
—He was afraid that he had intruded much too
long on their time—(No, !)—lt would give him
the greatest pleasure to prolong his intercourse with
them, but he feared it would be inconvenient for
them." He then delivered an elegant eulogium on
the various distinguished individuals who had done
honour to the University. The scientific and bene-
volent Hutcheson had led the way in a Thoo7 of
Morals, and his opinions had been illustrated in a,
Life by Principal Leishman, which deserved to
better known; written with great elegance, and oc-
casionally rising into eloquence. Dr. Smith had
united great ancient learning with a familiar know.
lege of the affairs of active life, and in the science al:
political economy, as well.as of morals and the prin-
ciples of sound taste, had established a distinguished
reputation. Dr. Reid had discussed, with excellent
Food sense, the'principles of Metaphysics and Ethics.
Fhe lives and opinions of those eminent persons had
been made kaawn to all Enrope.by Professor

called on to ' practise in tile Election igistracy
of the Country or of the Framers of the Laws, which it
is the peculiar blessing of our happy Constitution that
the People are supposed to be privileged to exercise?
This early acquaintance with the rights of freemen
qualifies them to use them, without any tumultuary
br disorderly feelings, as habitual rights, which lead
to no disorder in their future exercise, whenever they
have opportunities of exercising the elective franchise
in any of the various forms which our Constitution
prescribes. It has ever appeared to me, that by this
excellent Insritution,the youth who are thus gra-
ciously entrusted with the choice of their Academical
Magistrates, are consoled for their subjection to the
academical laws, and are more submissive to the ne-
cessary discipline of the University, than in other si-
' tuations where they are deprived of every power of
electing their Magistracy. So wisely had this Elec.,
tion been managed by the youths of the University ,1
that he was almost overwhelmed by the talents and
worth of his celebrated predecessors. The youth of
Glasgow had shewn the highest veneration for the
productions of genius ; he, too, could revere the phi-
, losopher and adnxiie the poet, and yet he still thought
that due applause should not be withheld flom those
whose lives had been spent in studying the nature
and utility of Government. In the year 1784, when,
(tom the state of political affairs, it would have
seemed peculiarly delicate for any literary body to
have distinguished a person so strongly opposed to the
Administration of the day, this University elected to
be Lord Rector Edmund Burke, who had been
called the most philosophical orator of his day,
but whom I would rather describe as the most
eloquent political philosopher of modern- times.—
I am well aware that I have no claim to engage your
attention but that of a countryman engaged in la-
borious public pursuits. I am well aware that I have
na other pretensions than the love of letters; my life
has been variegated, and has left little for the prose-
cution of projects that were formed in my early life,
and the age of repose has been converted into an age
of anxiety. I would advise those who are masters of
their own time that they would confine their life to
