AN IMPROBABLE SroRY.--The London
Standard of late date says,-''A report pre-
walls in Paris, that, sooner than ield 10 the sort
of domination it is desired to impose upon him
the King will abdicate. It is even asserted BY
the Commerce, that meetisg was lately held,
ofthe members Of the royal family, at ST. Cloud,
in consequence of the agonizing state fexcte-
ment under which the Queen has labored since
the attempt of Darnes, at which the question
of aodcation was seriously discussed; and thai
on the following day Madane Adelaide set out
for Brussels in order TO induce KING Leopold to
repair to London and ascertain the feeling of
fhe British cabinet in the event of Louis Phil
lippe's abdication in favor Of his son. Such a
mission, however, would be wholly unneces-
sary, seeing that no doubt can well be enter
tanned of the favorable disposition of England
toward the King OF France and his dynasty A
letter from Paris, published in the Journal de
Loiret states, in confirmation of the rumours OF
abdicaiion, that such an event was co sidered
inevitable Such coliIss would rather In
crease than diminish the difficulties by which
the crown OF France is surrounded; aud snp
posing that great public duty We're sacrif
to the wishes Of the Queen, the Kings abdi
cation would hardly diminish the anxiety of
mipd under which she labors.

DEATH OF PROFESSOR DAvIS.-The following
details in regard to the late assassination Of Pro-
lessor Davis, of the University of Virginia, are
given in the fredericksburg Arena:
The eyening of the 18th was the anniversary
OF the rebellion in college, some three or four
years ago. A student named Scmmes, Of Geor-
gia, and another Kincaid of South Carolina, de-
termined to celebrate it by disturbance. Their
Influence failed to enlist auy other student in the
scheme. They proceeded to fire pistols and maize
great noise on the lawn-disguised and mask
ed. Professor Davis, who, as chairman of the
Faculty, was charged with the preservation Of
order, on hearing the noise, opened bis offs
door, and stood therein a few minutes. One Of
the masked students, Sepmes, approached HIM
and made noise Mr. Davis made an effort to
remove his mask--the student rctreated a lew
PAGES and fired. The ball took effect, rs we
have already stated. Semmes and Kincaid were
both arrested, and the former fully committed,
after examination, for trial.

,rtb. will be acceptable or even tolerated. as long
- REORGANIZATION, mesmerism, the science o
Iraiu-makiug, and kindred errors find so many
| followers"
He then proceeds to say that he will not,
henceforth, ego about peddling the truth, nor
throw any more pearls before swine" That if
publicity is ever given to his doctrines, 1t must
be under fitting auspices. And that, if the re-
quiste facilities are not at his command here, he
WILL in all probability, ''like Columbus, Of old,
seek in other lands, and perhaps among people of
another speech, for influence and patronage"
The tone of this communication is certainly not
in the right spirit. There may be truth in the
new theories entertained by the professed dissov-
erer; but it is certainly premature to get out of
temper with the public before The public have had
an opportunity to examine and judge of the very
important prctensions assumed. This is the age
Of new discoveries, and improvements in science
and art, and it is alSs the age of pretension and
deluSion. Against all these the public mind must
stand protected, and in the position of defensive
the true well as the false is often
rejected. This fact, all real discoveries should
keep steadily before their minds, and be prepar-
i'd for sceptcism and GOODNESS of reception If
he principles they advocate be true, the steady
development of truth, which is one of the char
,ctcristics of this age, must and will bring them
nto the light. To become irritated, and to in
lulge in censure upon the public, will effect no
rood; and would Indicate rather the agitation of
superficial, than the profound calm of truly
,hilosophic mind.

0But experience will dispel the deIusion and

discover that there IS substantial relief in the
