ned with her students, (however inconvenent
it may have been) Leicester Academy. Is
not every town then, interested in its locality.
When the Corporation Of Harvard College
contemplated the removal of that Institution,
was it dispute merely between the towns Of
Lancaster and Cambridge? Was it matter
of local rather than Of general Importance?
Did it interest only few readers THAT era
bears testimony, that all classes Of people in
old Massachusetts,, from boys who lisped their
letters, to those men whose minds were chas-
tened down to the severity Of thought and in
vestigation, took a deep and lively interest in
the discussion Of the question.
So | think every parent or guardian who
intends sending child to Leicester Academy,
must have an interest in its locality.
Leicester, since the location OF the Acade-
my, has given fire of her inhabitants collie
gate education. Is there a solitary town in
the county which has not educated greater
number for forty years last past? Worcester,
when compared with Leicester, has educated
in ratio of ten to one. II, then, Leicester will
not improve the privileges she enjoys, she can
not with the least propriety, blame the Trus-
tees If they transfer them to those who are
more worthy of them. II is the bounden duty
of the Trustees, if it will promote the best
interests Of the Institution, TO remove it.

ADDRESS.
SIR,
AMONG the nations of antiquity who are
most distinguished in tolls of war, as well
as the refnements of peace, and whose
laudable examples the moderns are emulous
to initiate, the only standard Of excellence
was bravery in man, and virtue In woman.

soldier, we ever look up for our shield in
the hour Of invading danger. Nav il never

renowned Greece, who are now compelled TO
arm themselves with missile weapons. and
boldly face the foe, or quietly submit to the
'insolence and barbarity of the tyrannical Turk

abodes.-ln behalf Of friend TO the Comma
ny, in which you hold distinguished rank. |

ornament OF your martial band. But shopld
the tempest Of war again visit our land. hear
II forth to battle, in defence of your Country's
rights; nerved like the bird of Joye. let vour
own heroick achievements animate your COM
panions, and stimulate them on to victory and
glory In the most desperate conflicts. main

REPLY
MADAM,
IT is, indeed, to the nations which have
gone before us, we are indebted for the basis
on which we have built most of our improve-
ments in peace as we'll as in war. The brave.
the honorable, and the virtuous in all apes
have been safe models for our imitation
May the power you have invoked, ever secure
our fair daughters from the tolls and pr;va-
tons Of the camp. As member of the WoR-
cRsTER RIFLE CoMpANY, receive this en-
sign, and while we duly appreciate the gen.
erosity, and prize the friendship of the donor.
its value is much enhanced by the manner in
which it is presented. On this Banner we
behold the emblems of peace and war-mav
It ever wave in peace. But should our Conn.
Try call US to the field Of combat, those princi-
pies OF Independence, and that spirit Of patriot
ism which animated our ancestors, shall in
spire the breasts of all who rally around it. and
We trust it never shall be found among the
trophies Of victorious enemy.
