The Faculties, for intelIectual abilities,
moral worth and professional requirements,
will compare favorably with the most distin-
guishcd il o-r'country. The medical faculty
constitutes an anomaly in this or any other
countTy--all Of them are able lecturers aud the
best OF teachers.
Those who will contemplate our geograph-
ical position, and the extent our population.
can have no doubt as to the eligibility Of our
situation for an enterprise Of the kind As to
health, including all seasons of the year, we
deny That ANY OTHER CITY HAS MORE.
A common error exists in the minds II
many students relative to the place of studying
medicine; those who intend practicing among
the diseases of the West and South should GER
tainly educate themselves at a school whose
Faculty are practically acquainted with those
diseases.
That the public may be satisfied of the per.
nancy OF this school, we feel it our duty tc
state, that the Trustees aud Faculty form Q
UNIT in action, which augurs we'll for its f1,
nre success; and that the peculiar internal or.
ganization which connects them, cannot bt
interrupted.

Importation Of Geld.

In the Commercial Chronicle and Re-
view" contained in the August number of
Hunts Merchants Magazine, it is stated
that the arrivals of Gold at the Pbiladel-
phia Mint, from California and elsewhere
during the past lS months, is SIG, ,95S, 1903.
This, with the amount coined at New Or
leans, and other branches, makes over $40, ;
600, 900; and probably with the amount
brought by the Philadelphia, Georgia and
Cherokee, not less than $27, 7,000,000 have
reached US within Is months. In the same
time $l2,0oO,ooo were imported from a.
broad, on custom house books, and if we
add the usual estimate for emigrants, the
amount is s52 ,00O, 900; an incredible sum
when we consider how little its presence
has been appreciated. -5--...f .

the New York Journal of Commerce:
"The whole number of Hungarian Of

fifty. About one hundred are officers
many Of them superior men, both in intel.
lect and in devotion to their country, and

State Fair Post poned to October.

The Board Of Agriculture have eonclud
ed to postpone the time of holding the Ohio
State Fair (at Cinclnnati to the I'd, 3d.
and 4th days Of October next.
The reasons for this change are, the
probability that tho fear Of Cholera may
continue to excite apprehensions in the
minds Of some, especially when travelling
or assembling in large crowds. until after
the time heretofore appointed for the Fair;
also the low Stage of water in tho Ohio
river is likely to obstruct travel and navi-
CATION above Cincinnati during September;
and farmers will have more 1easure in
October after wheat sowing is done. 1t
will also be q moro favorable time for
Transporting and exhibiting choice stock,
and for the show of fruits by the Pomolog-
ical Congress. ez -
We are not authorized 10 announce that
the Pathological Congress will change its
time of fassembling. as there has not yer
been sufficient time to hear from its officers,
but We think there can be no doubt Of their
consenting to the change. 21 ~

above change Of time in their papers,

Democracy.

Democracy is glorious word thero
are very few in the wide world that will
compare with it. It is The darling of the
poor man, for he knows that by it he is
raised from the pi. in which his oppressors
would leave him, and enabled to turn his
face heavenward ard bless God that he is
free man. Democracy knows no dis.
tinetion between man and man it places
every one on the broad platform of equal
ity. If one says TO another, 81 am thy
SUPERIOR this heaven. born democracy
asks the question, how is il? and ii it is not
in superiority Of virtue and intellect, it
pronounces the arrogant one of the worst,
as he is swelled up with disgusting PRIDE
Democracy teaches that no man is bis fell
lows superior, except he excels him in vir-
tue and intellect 4; and even then he is enti-
tied to no political privileges that others are
deprived of. ..r r5. ..~ -. .rs
The scales which Democracy holds in
her hands does not preponderate a hairs
breadth more in favor ot. the rich than ii
does the poor, or the high than the low
Like the bright, pure sun. it would shed its
rays on all alike. 1t teaches with the
''book Of books" that wo are all formed Of
the same clay-the same breath was braath.
ed into US all. The poor man should
cherish Democracy-itis is too him tower
Of strength when all else fails--he should
cling to those who adhere to its principles,
they are his friends. r.: - 81 ss'.a
