WILLoUGHBY UNIVERSITY OF LAKE
ERrE.-The medical department of this
institution goes into operation early in
the month of November. During the
past year, the trustees have at great ex-
pense, erected spacious brick edifce,
three stories in height, and with rooms
sufficient to accommodate the professors
of the various branches of science and
literature intended to be taught. The
building is heated by furnaces from be-
meath, and its situation on an eminence
overlooking the delightful country a.
round, is commanding and beautiful.
The professors are men of talent, capa-
BILE of imparting instruction on their va
rious branches, and of giving honorable
character to the institution at home and
abroad. Board and conveniences are
cheaper and more easily procured at w.
than at any other place which we can
now mention, where there is an institu-
tion of such general character. Young
men. residing in this and the neighbor-
ing states, wishing to attend a course of
medical lectures, will find it to their in.
terest TO patronise the Willoughby Uni
versity, where for less money, and in as
brief time, they can obtain the same
amount of knowledge that they could
at Philadelphia or Fairfield. The Collie
giate Department will, we understand,
be opened in the Spring, or early in the
summer of next year. 1t is the intcn-
tion of the Trustees to make great addi-
tions to the present building the next
season, and also to erect Female Sem
mary. A Law School will be opened.
if fgood professors can be obtained during
the next season. The difficulties which
the trustees have been obliged to over
come, and the satisfaction which the
course Of instruction in this institution
has given during the last two years, will
we hope, be fully appreciated by people
living in the western world. Certainly,
we wish it every success, and can but
believe that it will soon become one of
the most respectable institutions in the
west. 1

WArER.-The complaint made by
people at a distance, that the water in
this country is unfit to drink or wash
with, is so far as the towns at the foot of
the rapids are concerned, groundless.
II is true that much of our water is very
hard, and without the application of ash
es to soften it, will not wash we'll: but
there are several springs in the bank of
the river Of recent discovery, which af-
ford as good water as can be procured

on the morning of the Goth of June.

Of a good king, but in the accession Of

perity. Young, amiable, highly accom-
plished, and of tory politics, we fancy
that by the aid of her mother, the Dutch
ess Of Kent, she will be able to WELD a
noble sceptre, and chequer the career
before her, with events, revolutions and
government operations, which England
will look back upon in future times with
more than Elizabethean reverence.

ExPLosroN.--About six O'clock this
morning, the gunsmith's shop Of Henry
De Croft, 46 Greenwich street, west
side, next door below the corner Of
Murray, was blown up by gun-powder.
Mr.. De Croft, who was in the shop at
the time, was buried in the ruins; but
was soon after got out, badly burnt, but
not otherwise materially injured, and ia.
ken to the hospital. He was able to
walk but his recovery, we suspect, is ex-
tremely doubtful. His wife was in the
room over the shop, getting breakfast
The explosion demolished the floor on
which she was standing, as well as the
shop floor, and she was precipitated in
to the cellar. She had leg broken,
and was otherwise injured, but is expec-
ted to recover An old man, native Of
France, who was passing at the time Of
the explosion, was good deal hurt,
chiefly by glass from the windows. Two
persons in the garret received no injury.

civil marriage was performed in the gal

then proceeded to the chapel Of the

brated according to the Catholic wor-
ship, and finally solemnized according
to Lutheran rites in the new gallery Of
