For the North Carolina Standard
Mr.. EDITOR: wish 10 call the attention of those
OF your readers who are friends of education, to
the situation of the schools in this city. The
Raleigh Military Academy, under the control of
Messrs. LoVeJoy and Disbrow, is located in beau
tiful grove in the North East part Of the City, the
residence OF the principal being few yards in
front OF the Academy. The North Carolina Mill
fine building in the South West part of the City.
Both these institutions have suffered from the short
sighted policy of Of the friends of each, who
have cried down the school they oppose to benefit
the one they favor. ] am glad however TO learn
that they are both we'll patronized, that scholars
are daily coming in from abroad, aud that there is
no doubt OF the permanency of either Institution.
Any impartial man can see that both Academies
have claims upon the community, of no ordinary
nature, and that is for the interest Of the public
that they should be patroniZed 1t is well known
fact that the pupils in this place were never under
such state of discipline at present, and the
faculty at Chapel Hill testify that no boys are
better prepared to enter College Than those who go
from Raleigh.
Raleigh is undoubtedly the bes, place in the State
to send boys to be educated, being the capital of
the State, having population noted for its strict
morality, having but few haunts Of wee and those
frowned upon by the community, possessing places
Of worship Of different denominations with able
pastors, that each hear the doctrines of his
own faith incucated, being also an extremely heal
thy place, and having the best of society. 1t is
supposed by some that it is expensive sending boys
here to school. This is erroneous, for board can be
had in respectable families in the suburbs of the
city, out of the way of temptation at from eight
10 dollars per month.
1t was feared that the military feature in the
schools would be short-ved and would take the
attention of the pupils from their studies. This
has happily turned out differently. Experience
has shown that the boys attend to their studies
equally well as they did before this feature
introduced. The military exercise gives them
fine carriage and genemanly bearing, it also makes
them grow up with good forms and robust const-
tutions. l have even known what were considered
positive defects in form to be cured by this
else. Parents who at first strenuously opposed the
military part Of the schools heartily in its
favor.
The competition between the schools has also
happy effect. Not only do the teachers them
selves 10 see which give the most satisfaction
but even the boys in the one school are ashamed to
be outstripped by their competitors in the other.
In conclusion, permit me to say, that il is Cor the i'll
terest of The friends of education that both nst-
tutions should prosper FRANKLIN.

SAM exerts very powerful influence, is that of dis
eGsed Live In this complaint it has undoubtedly proved
more eficAcous than any remedy hitherto employed and
numerous instances when patients had endured long
and suffering from the disease without receiving
the least benefit from various remedies, and when Mer
curry has been resorted to in van the of this Balsam
has restored the Liver to healthy action, and in many
instances effected permanent cures, after every known
remedy had failed to produce this desired effect Be-
sides its astonishing efficacy in the diseases above men,
toned, also find it very eectual remedy in 4sthnd
complaint in which it has been extensively used with
decided success in cases of years standing. 1t
not only emanates from regular Physician but has al
been we'll tested in all the complaints for which 1t
recommended 1t is not my intention. therefore. either
TO cloak it In mystery, or in any way deceive the pub
lie by overating its virtues on the contrary, shall
simply sndeavor give brief statement Of its useful

The Richmond Enquirer of Monday has the
following brief but judicious notice of the Foreign
News
;'The gloomy Vaticinations Of the Wings are
up the President as having involved the country
in war, for his selfish purpose. We have
never faltered in opinion that the wise liberal

amicable adjustment of the Oregon controversy.
While the Whig press in the distance the
dark cloud of war, and in gloomy characters, de-
picted its horrors and lis COST felt assured, ard
have so invariably expressed ourselves, that the
position of England her vital dependence upon
commercial intercourse with US, and especially
the liberal but decided bearing of tie President on
the Oregon question, and the wise and beneficial
revenue measure recommended by him-all went
to show that war would not ensue.
