we infer that it is we'll worth perusal.-
The following paragraph, touching on ma
tonal morality, is as beautiful as it is
true:
Claiming as full an exemption from
superstition as most men, firmly believe,
and take pleasure In announcing it, that
no State can prosper in long career of
true glory, in the disregard of the claims
ofjustice, and the high injunctions of the
Christian religion. A flood tide of appa-
rent prosperity may come, filling for the
time the avenues of trade, and satiating
The cravings Of taste and curiosity, yet.
sooner or later, 1t has its ebb, and either
clogs with It's abundance or leaves the
void greater than before. History is a ST.
lent but eloquent witness of this truth.

ADDRESS before the Alumni of the University
 Of Nortl Carolina, delivered in Girard Hall
 June 2 l547; by tho Hon. JoHS Y MASON L.
 L, D.
 A friend has kindly furnished us copy of this interesting Address. Sc. c,elary Mason delivered this Address al the commencement of this University, and was immediately waited upon by bis Excellency Gov. Graham, Professor Green and Hon Judge BIllle, and re, ques.ed him 10 furnish copy for publi- ca'ion. The result is before us. We do not remember of ever having read an Address that offered us more plea sure or made us think so well of our country. The style is peculiarly beau, liful and chaste, and it seems almost m- possible that an individua whose time was so much occupied by public duties, could so far draw off his mind and pen such an Address. We enoice withplea snre lhe cordially with which il has been received in every secioE of our conn. try, and have no doubt but that much good will be effected by giving publicity to so able n production Our limits forbid the notice We would like 10 give We caa!:oi, however, deny ourselves tbe pleasure of making one extract. Speak. ing of the American Press, Secretary Mason says;

Far outstrlpplng by lite enterprise the fertility of ifs ow writers, the American press appropri> ates unshrinkingly the literary treasures ot the whole earth; while il almost for bids importation of books by the cheap ness with which it reprints them, and the facility with which ii scatters them among all classes of ths reading com" munlty. But the most striking displavs of its activity ond power are only 10 be witnessed in the field of Journokism. where 1t more than equals France in energy, and knows no other rival thro'> ouI the world. It printed the first news paper in America In the year l704 in 1893 # had joined an additional number of eight hundred and fifty and, at this day, It acts upon the popular mind through the teeming columns of more than two thousand journals. Sharing. as well as stimulating, the progressive spirit of the age, ii advances in;o he wilderness with our hardy pioneers i; Keeps company with our commerce a. mong the the Islands of the sea and contends for supremacy with the sword upon every battlefield which IS won by our victorious arms. Already it sends us shipping lists fl om the Sandwich ls> lands, chronicles the news of the day in La Vera Cruz, and echoes back the thunder Of our cannon from The shores of the far Pacific. Becoming thus the missionary as well as the schoolmaster of republlcanism, it plants among other nations he seeds of freedom, which has itself ripened npon our soil and having first contributed 10 the glory of America at home, ii crowns it's labors of patriot. ism by making il better known, and there. fore more honored. abfoad.'
 The columns of newspaper are toe limited for an extended notice of this production. We recommend 10 all VI ho can procure copy, a careful perusal The University of North Carolina is fast growing in character and influence It numbers among its Alumni some of the most distinguished men of the age Under the control of ils present able and distinguished President, tbe Hon. David L. Suar, Ex, Governor of lhe Stale, it has rapidly advanced towards the consummatiol of the fond wishes of its patrons. It is now justly the boast of the South, the pride and ornament of the Old North Stale. It's faculty fer their ability and distinction are second to none, al least in the South, and ,he patronage this University is now receiv. ing proves the satisfaction their labors have given.

cessani, while from hlll just outside the range oi heir guns, the spectacle was most grand and imposing. About o'clock Gen. Scott arrived"
 Gens. Pillows and Twiggs' divisions operating together, and lhe former being the ranking officer, by whom, we ask, was ,be brigade of Gen. Smith ordered 10 advance?' from whom did Col Riley receive borders to gain ihe main road" &c? by whom was Capt. Magruder pressed forward" &c.2 by whom was the brigade of Gen. Cadwalader order. ed out 10 support Col. RiIey7"
 Of course Mir. Kendall did not think il necessary 10 add by whom these va- rious orders were given. Flat would be stretch of impartalty and magnan-
 unity too great even for so authentic a historian as Mir. Kendall. But still there IS some sense in the world, and everybody knows that, from his superb or rank and the absence of Gen. Scott. who was ten miles of, that these orders could have been giUen omly by Gen. PiI- foio. Under these orders and disposi. tons, the battle seems to have been fought and gained.
 The statements, therefore, of our cor. respondent, are fully backed by Mir. Kendall. Whether such endorsement gives any additional authenticity, or cons firm ation, 10 his averments, is a point 10 which we will not hazard an opinion,
 Thus: then, the issue stands. On one side, we have the present sapienl editor of the Picaynne, who, at the very time ms battle was going on, was engaged here, at distance of 1900 miles from ihe scene of action, in the work of abu.- sing and flllfying an office who was hghiing for his county and on the oth. CT, We have "Leonidas, an officer who took an active pat in those battles, and Mir. George Wilkins Kendall, who, no doubt on these trying occasions, signal- ed h;s Valor by exploits scarcely less brilliant than those which were acknowl> edged, last winter by a resolution of our Legislature!
