Revie,o of Mr BePs Address, delicered before the
 Alumni Society ofhe Unirersity cf Tennessee, Octo-
 Der 5th, 1880.
 We have in this address the most melancholy proofs of the venaty and carelessness of the Legs- ture of Tennessee, and the preudces of the people at large against education Can it be believed that in this free and enighed nation, whose very existence depends upon general intelligence, there are men who will advocate the cause of ignorence, flown down liberal institutions, and persuade their fellow citizens to neglect not only collegiate learning but learning altogetherl We can read without surprise of the Roman Catholic priesthood of the twelfth century throwing impediments in the way of moral improvement, but we never expected to find that there politicians in this neghboring State, who have systematically, for series of years, been in fusing into the public mind the most absurd doctrines and the worst poison; who have done all in their powerto paralyze the State University, by cutting away and deteriorang its funds at every opportuni

An acquaintance of mine somewhat advanc- ed in life, who has withdrawn himself from party strifes and eschewed poitics-and who has always been chased with the party term ed Aristocrats, but who in fact, is a Rehu6H- can according to the strictest definition of the word-lately in a conversation about the par ties in this State, said the one dubbed PeohAe's Folks, alias Democrats, alias Rehu6Hcans, put him in mind of horsc-hunter, who, in approaching the intended captive, concealed brdle in one hand behind his back, and pre- senting in the other nub6i1 of corn, at the same time coaxing him with cope e!--cope- cope-cope-cope-co internal ras- cal, Ihaivc ye nozv! Then mounting the poor dupc and clapping spurs to his sides, rode him ever hill and dale until the poor animal was completely worn out and useless. He was then stripped and turned locse upon the cold charity Of the world to pick a scanty living in the parched up pastures which he had lately left so blooming, fresh and gay. It was too late to moralize-but he could not help ex- claiming, How foolish are those horses who, .revelling in the luxury of green pastures and hmpid streams, and wallowing on pretty fra grant sunny spots, suffer themselves to be en- ticed away with the hope of tasting titbit.-- Take my advice and shun the BRIDLE.

A few hours previous to the adjournment of the NorthC Carolna legislature, the roof of the Capitol (says the Regster,) was discovered to be on fire, which being made known to both houses, caused them to adjourn in haste, and proceed to extingush the flames Assisted by the citizens of Raleigh, this was effected in short time and before the fire had materially damaged the building. It was consider ed fortunate circumstance that the accident occur red before night and before the citizens had dispers- ed to their homes; as few minutes delay would have been fatal to this fine edifice
 A committee had reported in favor of recommend ing the establishment off branch of the U States Mini in the gold region ofthe South. Owing to the adulteraton of the metal and the imperfect manner in which it is wrought in the different mines, gold bullion has ceased 10 circulate as money. The mi ners have, therefore, been compelled to send their gold to the National Mint, at Philadelphia, to be coined; which leads to considerable delay and the loss of interest on their earnings.

This winter will doubtless be long remembered by the printers in Alabama, account of the great snow great floods, the extreme cold, and the great solar eclipse, which is to happen Saturday next. No business in this country is retarded by eez- ing weather than that of printing office. It sell dom happens in South Alabama, that we have a long spell ofsevere cold weather, that we feel but little concern to the arrangements of printing of. ice, provided it be only large enough. Hence the heat of summer has been heretofore much more dreaded than short and comparatively mild win ters. From the middle of last June to the first of November, we had extraordinary dry and hot wea- ther. The cold set in about the 20th of December since which time it has been much steadier than any former winter, with much more rain The open and exposed situation ofour office has been serious inconvenience to us during this time and will delay for week or two longer than we expected, the publication ofthe Laws and Journals,

Tae Bor of Champagne.-We expect in few days to be served with citation by neg ghbor of the Spirit of the Age to help him to swallow the "sweet oblivious antidote" which the Mobile Regis ter has promised to consign to him in order to effect . certain reconciliation therein named. The Regis ter has no doubt made udicious choice in appoint ing the Spirit mediator but fear the cold water drinkers will view it as an unfortunate circumstance for the Temperance Society, his Ghostship being of its most staunch and spirited advocates. They may perhaps fear it will be inferred from this that shis praiseworhy society is the decline, and that this little pattern of temperance has become faint and weary of welldoing. It will indeed, be viewed discouraging, particularly by, those who recently made attempt to prohibit tho of win %, sordias, cider and beer. In fact the hard struggles and slow march of the society," taken in connexion with the profer of the Spirit, at this critical period, to join in Bacchanalan feast, may be squinted at with dstrust and misgivngs. But we pledge our word to his fellow laborers that we will look to 1t that he does not crook his cbo,o too often. Yet, after all, we feel no apprehensions about his being con- taminated, that the interests standing of the @ety will suffer by this ntendedact of philanthropy But how will the Inquirer treat the citationl-we fear unkndly; and would probably exclaim with Mamlet--
