~ There is a very Aoursshing school
at Botetourt Springs in Roanoke County,
called the VALLEY Union Seminary" 1t is
under the charge Of the Baptist dcnomina-
ton but is, we believe, no way seciarian
in It's habitudes or requirements. There
are two departments, one for the males and
the other for the females. The catalogue
for the current year, now before US, shows
that in the former there are So pupils, in
the latter G2, making total Of $50. This
certainly indicates high degree Of pros
perity and is favourable commentary up
on the capacity Of the teachers, Of whom
there are seven.

Mr. FiI,morc's administration.

Mr.. Fillmore is winning golden opinions
all over the country. His worst enemies
are scarcely able any longer to hold out in
the ordinarily easy business Of fault-Gnd-
ing We We're surprised to see that even
Mr. Butler Of South Carolina, in the con-
Guiding part of bis minority report, from the
Judiciary Committee TO whom had been
referred the Presidents Message on the
Boston Riots, could use the following Ian
guage in regard to Mr.. Fillmore:
Justice and the occasion require to say that
/ do not believe the powes commended for would be
abused by the present Executive. The precedent
for the direction of mild and just President may
be the rod Of power for military spot
This may be considered liberal, espe-
cially when we remember that the Char
lesion Mercury charges that the President
only seeks for increased powers now, os-
tensibly to put down the Boston rioters,
but really to be used ultimately for crush
ing South Carolina
But our object was simply to introduce
the following remarks from that always
discreet, and never otherwise than able,pa-
per the Baltimore Patriot:
The JuDcuEST OF THE CoUx1RY.-We referred
the other day to the business character of the pre-
sent administration and the ability unfaltering pa
fiotisIn, and faithful attention. with which every
duty devovcd upon the President or any or all Of
his Cabinet performed 1t Is fortunate for the
country, that in crisis like this, when angry and
antagonisiica and anatical feelings are encouraged
and avowed in different sections Of the country
when the laws openly attempted to be violated
and the integrity of the Union itself threatened--
is fortuuate for the country, that such time we
have such man in the Presidential chair, as Nil
lard Fillmore has proven himself be- and that he
is surrounded BY counscllnrs like the great men who
compose his Cabinet. With him and with them in
authority. the supremacy of the laws is TO be
ulaintnined the Constitution upheld, and the Onion
placed and kept beyond danger from fanatics. no
matter where they live, what falacy treason
tley may preach.
And this il the Judgment Of the country. Take
away the men, who, II the last ongress lent them
selves the dsunonists, OF the North the South,
and there is not man, Of all that Congress, who
will not bear testimony the faithful ard fenrless
discharge of its duty by the Administrations aud 70
ing among te people al large, the sentiment win
be found to be stronger among them that with the
power in The hands of President Fillmore and biz
Cabinet. all viii 20 right.
The good that such az administration does, lives
after them. The example which they have set,and
the appreciation they have received from the people,
viii not Re lost others that may follow. The
bition of those who cadravur to do well is excit-
ed by the effort to emulate the example of those who
haze done well and thus viii il come to pass, that
succeeding administrations viii try TO come W to
the merit If this which the counry Is blessed in
having now in power.

ATTACK ON Mr.. WEBsTER.-The Ma
tionat Era, the abolition organ at Wash
mgton City, and the Lynch5urg Repu5H-
can, the Democratic organ of Mr. Bocock,
are the only two papers that we have yet
seen, which unite with Mr. Allen,the Free
Soil member from Massachusetts, in as
sailing the character of Mr.. Webster for
ms supposed guilt in the recent transaction
with which he has been charged bv the
last named assailant. These attacks will
doubtless derive new force from fact we
saw stated in the Baltimore papers, te-wit:
that span Of beautiful grey horses passed
through that City few days ago on their
way TO Westinghouse apresent from some
friend to the Secretary Of State. To paper
that can pronounce Mr.. Webster "politi-
cal prostitute" no better evidence Of cor
ruption and venahty need be wanted, than
the presentation of turkey or a mess Of
roasting ears. We are very solicitous for
Mr.. Webster's peace and quiet under these
furious assaults, but il is to be hoped that,
ike Napoleon when the enraged woman
denounced him, though he viii be unutter-
ably distressed when he first hcarsof them,
he viii nevertheless at length cometo sleep
soundly o'nights
