o. Commencement at Burlington
Qast Wednesday, passed of very pleas
antly-,he heavens smiling p%ropitiously
on the occasion as usual. The grad
uaiing class numbered thirteen. The
following honorary degrees were con-
ferred
A. VI. - JonN L. BUCK, Esq Of
Mortified, Rev. DANIEL WARREN, and
PnuANDER ID. BRADroRp, NJ. D.
d. D.-Rev. lleNRr WILKES, of Mon
trcal.
The address before the Associated
Alumni was delivered by EIENny ].
RAYMOND, Esq of New York City, on
the Duties and Relations Of the Ameri>
can Scholar TO the Present Age. The
subject, though rather common place,
was treated in an original and able man
ner, and was apparently listened 10 with
great satisfaction by a large audience
The other Addresses (Which we did not
hear) were by Rev. HENRy WILKES, Of
Montreal, and Rev. Mr.. WAsnBURN, Of
Newburyport. The Poem, by Rev. o.

boundaries described in her constitution. He
has on several occasions made eloquent ap-
peals in behalf Of that State, which are too
fresh in the memory ofcvery reader Of news
crence. We should be inclined to believe
tina, Mr.. Barber wrote Nev Merico instead
Of California, ia the above extract, or intcn-
ded so to write, from the connection, if that
would at all relieve The bad look Of the sen
tence; but, unfortunately for this ~falsifcr,
Mr.. WhBsT.H's declaration in favor of New
Mexico as a State, though not so often re-
poated, is equally plain and unequivocal, as
in the former instance. VIVA; motive could
induce this direct and ralpable misstatcmcni,
VIC are unable to judgc.-Wc conclude with
a single brief extract from the last speech of
Mr.. WEBSTER before leaving the Senate,
showing, In his own words, what he thinks
on the question of admitting both California
and New Mexico as States:
{" In case of the failure of this bill TClay's
COMPROMISED | shall be in favor of n bill
which will provide for three things, namely,
The admission Of California wiM is present
Constitution anil boundaries, the settlement
of the Texas boundary, aud the admission NJ
Nep lIcricO as II State. Such a measure
will tend to a full and final termination of
the controversies which now agita;e ms. and
relieve the country from distraction ."--Dan
tel Webster, July IL, 1850.

THE PRESIDENTS TEXAS MESSAGE
The Message of President FILLMORE, rela.
ting to the Texan difficulties, is all that the
most ardent friends of justice and freedom
could have asked or wished. His position is
as firm and decided as it is palpaLly right.
The grasping aud rcbellious spirit Of Texas
is signally rcbuked, and the hot-headcd zeal
OTIS at the South, who have smiled encourage
ment on her treason, and even promised
more substantial aid and comfort in further
ance of her unrighteous schemes, may now
SIC plainly whittier they are tending.
We like the pointed condemnation with
which the President aIiules to Bradburv's
amendment, and other limitations that lead
us TO believe that, much as he desires peace
and harmony, he has no regret at the defeat
of Clay's Compromise We are also glad TO
see the urgency with which he recommends
a speedy settlement of the Texan boundary
question by Congress and the State of Tex
as, (thc proper parties TO such an arrange
ment), in order TO ob,iate all necessity for Il
resort to force. In the spirit OF this recon-
menlation is the bill introduced last week by
Senator PEARCE. which. from our present
knowledge, we believe to be n measure tina,
VIII prove satisfactory to the nation at large.
IS well as 10 Texas, and Illus pu; an end 10
all threatened disturbances. If the result,
unfortunately, should be otherwise, we now
know what to expect from the President.

c. The celebrated diamond known
in India as the Kooh-tnoor, or Mountain
of Light, has arrived in England, the
property Of the Government by conquest.
A Colonel of the East India Company
was entrusted with the care of this pre-
cious trophy. 1t has been known since
1850, and then weighed 500 carats, BY
unskilful cutting it was reduced to the
weight of 279 carats. 1t is still the
largest diamond in the world, and worth
two millions of pounds sterling.
