fayorably with the most distinguished in our coun-
trv. The medical faculty constitutes an anomaly
in this or any other country--ali Of them are lee
turers and the best of teachers

no doubt as to the eligibility Of situation for
an enterprise of the kind. AS to the health, in

A common error exists in the minds OF many
students relative to the place of studying med'c'n';
those who intend practising among the diseases OF
the West and South should certainly educate
themselves at school whose Faculty are pract'-

That the public may be satisfied of the perma

NATURES ENGiNEERs,-Mr Benton, in his late
speech in the Senate, in favor Of the bill for the
construction of road from St. Louis TO San Fran
cisco, says: .ris n 81
There is an idea become current of late-a
newborn idea-that none but man of science,
bred in school, can lay of road This is a mis-
take. There is q class of typographical engineers
older than the schools, and more unerring than the
mathematics. They are the wild ahimas-bufialo,
elk, deer, antelope, bears-which traverse the for
est not by compass but by an instinct which leads
them always the right way--to the lowest passes in
the mountains. the shallowest fords in the rivers,
the richest pastures in the forests, the best salt
springs and the shortest practicable lines between
remote points. They travel thousands of miles
have their annual migrations backwards and for
wards, and never miss the best and shortest route
These are the first engineers to lay out road in
new country; the Indians follow them, and hence
. buffalo road becomes war-path. The first
white hunters follow the same trails in pursuing
their game, and after that the buffalo road becomes
the wagon road Of the white man. and finally the
macadamized or railroad Of the scientific man 1t
all rssolves itselnto the same thng-into the same
buffalo road and thence the buffalo becomes the
trst and safest engineer. Thus it has been here,
IN the countries which we inhabit and the history
Of which is so familiar. The present national road
from Cumberland, over the Alleganies, was the /
military road Of Gen. Bsaddock which had been.
the buffalo path of the wild animals. So of the
two roads from Western Virginia to Kentucky
one through the gap in the Cumberland mountains,
the other down the kanawha. They were both
the war-path Of the Indians, and the travelling
route Of the buffalo, and their first white quain-
tances the early hunters. Buffaloes made them
in going from the salt springs Of Kentucky In
dams followed them first, white hunters after
wards-and that is the way Kentucky was dis
covered. In more than hundred years no nearer
or better routes have been found; and science now
makes her improved roads exactly where the buff
fao's foot first marked the way and the hunter 8
foot afterwards followed him.

DAILY CRESCENT.

VKRMoNr NuLL1F1oATIoN.--A writer, signing
himself "Vermonter," who is understood to be
Ssnstor Phelps, contributes an able article to the
National Inteligencer on the subject of the recent
notification act Of the Vermont Legislature. From
the body of the article we make two short ex-
tracts:
"The people of Vermont are, in fact, as they
have always been represented to be, attached to
the constitution and the Union. They are in prin-
ciple, by education, and by practice, peculiarly
to feel that the law Of their State comes in direct
conflict with the act of Congress Of the last session
II one is CONSTITUTIONAL the other cannot be. II the
act Of Congress be unconstitutional in their judg-
ment it does not justify notification by State legis-
latien. That is not the proper mode to test the
question Of consli.utionality. There is remedy
provided by the constitution itself. That remedy
by resort to the supreme judicial power, is one
which they fully understand and appreciate, and
one to which they are accustomed to submit
II isa remarkable fact that law was formerly
jury to fugitive slaves which law was repealed In
conformity with the decision ef the Supreme Couri
in the case Of Prigg as. Pennsylvania. In thai
case it was the unanimous opinion Of the cou1
that no law Of the State conflicting with an act Of
Congress en- the subject, was valid and it was the
opinion Of I majority of the Judges that no State
law regulating the manner in which the provisions
of the constitution should be carried out was valid
But it seems that in the tful changes produced in
the legislature of that State by the avorite doctrine
OF rotation in office, all knowledge Of that decision
has passed away from the Legislative body, ant
this unconstitutional provision is re-enacted. 1t i
to be hoped, however, that the same principle viii
in due time restore that knowledge, and with it The
necessary consequences of a repeal of the law"
