in addition to his wish to sec education
and habits of industry generally dissemina-
ted throughout his dominions, proposes
founding without delay, an establishment
at Rome for the education OF a certain
number of boys belonging to the working
classes throughout the States, SO that they
might be, in the first place, removed from
the spot where they we're likely TO contract
bad habits; and in the next, might form an
nucleus of well-nstructed non-comms
stoned officers, calculated to suffice for the
army required by the State. His Holiness
calls on the governors 10 apply TO all per
sons under their jurisdiction, particularly
the bishops, municipal magistrates, and
provincial councillors, for suggestions to
forward this scheme, and TO indicate the
best mode of raising the funds necessary
for CARRYING it into execution. The circu-
lar, in conclusion, calls upon the governors
TO avoid mere theoretical recommendations,
and to confne themselves as much as pos
siblc to practical matters.
The project submitted to the Pope on
the 1lth July last by Prince Cont, in his
name, and IN that of the society he repre-
sents, is worthy of remark. Ii is relative
to the construction of railways in the Ro-
man States, and of the means to be adopted
for procuring the necessary funds without
recourse to capitalists. According to his
plan the persons interested in the enterprise
would have TO contribute towards the con-
struction at tic rate Of five and half baio-
chi a day for the term of five years. AT
the expiration of those five years, shares Of
100 scudi each, bearing interest, would be
d stributed in proportion TO the money paid
IN by the contributors. A railway from
Rome to Naples, will, it is said, be the first
constr nc ed.

three members answered TO their names on

Iowa, was appointed President pro .tem.-
After some lille preliminary arrangements,
on melton, tie Convention proceeded 10
vote for a permanent President. The cans
didates nominated were d. A. J Upham Of
Milwaukee, Marshall III. Strong of Racine,
Moses H. Slrong, and VIM. X. Smith, OF
iowa. On the fourth ballot, D. A. }. Up
ham was chosen, he having received 81 OF
the 50 votes cast. La Fayette Kellogg, Of
Dane, was chosen Secretary. Some discus
son, not altogether uninlcresting was had,
on the motion to 20 into ballot for Presl-
dent. Mashall VI. Strong and &. G. Ryan

drank il off This was the alkaIi. and the

swallowed by his majesty. With a shrek
that will be remembered while Delhi is
numbered with the kingdoms, the monarch
rose, staggered, exploded, and in his ago-

rushing from the throne, fell PROSTATE on
