The Crops-Ts subsc cribers and Advertisers.
Some of our southern subsc ribers, in remtting
the cash pay for their subscriptions, frequently
drop line the state Of the crops ofther section
Of the country This is most admirable practice,
and we hope il may be initiated elsewhere. We re-
quest, therefore, from every part Of the country,
accurate information on the state and prospects OF
the crops of cotton, tobacco, rice, corn, wheat &c
From these data enabled to form a general
estimate Of the cropsto calculate distant probabil-
ties to prices and stocks-and to furnish the mer
chant broker, banker, fnancier, and all, with valu
able information that viii repay them well for the
trouble and expense of taking and reading the Herald
IsAUeUHArIoN OF THE VIEW CHANCELLOR OF THE
UNIvERsITy-T inauguration of the Hon Theo-
dore Frelinghuysen, Chancellor Of the University
at Washington Place, viii be celebrated in the
Chapel of the Institution, at half past seven O'Clock
this eveaing This occasion will bring together a
great crowd of beauty, intellect and fashion The
Chancelo Of fine talents, will make a
speech, and give view of the condition and pros
poets Of the University.
Heretofore this alma mater Of the "nsw age
the '.nora progenies Of the present dayhas suffer
ed much in reputation bv the arrangement Of its
finances. and the quarrel among its pious and pho
sophical friends. 1t had, dur the last few years,
under the blessing Of Heas aud Or. Mataers got |
deeply into the fashionable disorders the dav that

a subscriptsn raised for its benefit, equal to
SIS 0,prac pally among the merchants down town;
instance Of beralty not frequently in these
hard times. Many Of these contributors New

aetuated by the principles Of New England, which
hesitate deal literally literary, reIi-
gous and scientific institutions. Probably $1,000
if $500 Of this contribution was subscribed by
the members Of the Church Of the Mes.iah-all pria
cipally Eastern people, or educated in the East.
On all these and other points, we have doubt
an interesting exposition will be made toni night-to US
at least il ought 10 be interesting We have some
reason 10 feel interest in the of this pro-
missing Literary Establishment In 1880, or there
abouts we the first editor in this city who took
up the subject and wrote in favor Of establishing
liberal University in opposition to the close corpo-
ration OF Columbia College. This was done when
we conducted the "Courier and Enquirer" and
were building up the reputation ofthat paper, re-
putation which Webb and Noah now call theirs
The Rev. Or. Mathews, in the germ Of the institu-
tion, expressed himself highly gratifed a, the view
took, but he did not follow the course then
pointed out which was 10 make the Institution libe
ral philosophical religious, but sectarian. The
broad liberal foundation which il was built was
narrowed down to a sect-then to a clique-then to
a aman-and then il went to the dev for a while as
il ought to have done II has retraeed its steps
let out several hens in its garments-widened its
breeches considerably, and is in fair way Of becom
ing what we predicted il would be in these years
when we aided in its parturition liberal prin-
ciples.
We have watched this University since its birth
seen il the spor; Of salvation-jobbers-and wept-
no, laughed-ovcr its disgrace and bankruptcy. We
feel for the interest which of its thirty-sx ia
thers ought 20 feel for vagabond child-and il the
new Chancellor does not manage better and more IL
berally than his predecessor he may expect favor
or affection from us lie bids fair, howevcr-let
him 60 ahead right principles, and Satan is
harmless
