WESTERN MILITARY INSTITUTE,
Dreunon Springs, Kentucky,

TINHIS Institution, on account of the rapidly in
Il creasing demand for admittance, has been
compelled TO change is location-tho buildings at
Blue Lick Springs being insufficient for the accom-
mediation Of the large number seeking entrance.
Within the last year two hundred and sixty cadets
have been matriculated, Of whom near one hum
dred have left or been discharged mainly for want
of suitable Quarters" Drcnnon Springs has been
secured as the future and permanent location Of the
school To the great body of our patronage, com
ing as il does from the South and West, no point
co1,ii he more desirable. Situated within one mile
of the Kentucky river, midway between Frankfort
snd Louisville it is easy of access in all directions,
steamboats passing both ways daily.
The buildings and Improvements arevcry exten-
sive, affording ample room and accommodations
for three hundred cadets.
Its retired and healthful position eminently
adapts il for the purposes of Military School, Be-
ing eight miles from any town, il is free alike from
the vices and extravagancies usually incident to a
college life.
Tho second term of the ANIMAL series opens on
Monday, the 10th of February, and hereafter the
annual session will regularly open on the second
Monday of September, and close the last Friday in
lime For further information address
4. F. JOHNSON, Superintendent.
Drs-A GRADUATE of West Point, skilled in
practical engineering, obtain situation in the
above Institution by timely application.

Newark Academy.

BY late re- organization of this department OF
Delaware College the Board of Trus teeshave taken
measures to PLACE 1t upon new and Improve q
foundation, and to endow il with advantages pos
5essed by few similar Institutions in the country.
The Academy heretofore merged in the College,
and ofcourse subjected to all the evils which have
been found to attend the amalgamation of the two
departments in the same building, and under the
came government, now enjoys the privilege OF a
separate establishment, without losing those which
resultfrom its relation to the College proper.
A large and elegant edifce, with all the neces-
sary Gxtures of complete boarding establishment
has been erected and furnished, I'm which the stu
dcrss of the Academy board, under the immediate
charge Of the Principal and his Assistants; and all
its exercises are conducted on system oflts owns
uninterrupted by the interests operations OF the
other department. The furniture OF the study
rooms Ind dormitories has been chosen with pecu-
liar reference to comfort and convenience Tor study
| and no expense has been spared in providing the
apparatus necessaryto render the means sofinstruc-
| tion complete; giving to Newark Academy facili-
ties for prisate study and comfortable accommoda-
ton Of Students fully equal to those afforded by
many of our colleges.
From itsintimate relatontothe College students
OF the Academy enjoy many advantages not gem
orally obtained al institutions OF this kind Those
who wish to pursue some particular branch which
falls more properly within the College course, may
be admitted to recite in any of the College classes.
Students also of proper age and discretion, by re.
commendation of the Principal, and permission OF
the Faculty, may enjoy the OF the College LII
brary without additional charge. Admission also
may be had to the Lectures, and such other privi-
leges of the College can be probably enjoyed
by academical students.
The charge for Boarding, Washing, Fuel, Light,
&C., with tuition in English, Latin, and Greek, ia
seventy dollars for the Summer Session, and sew
enty- five for the Winter Session. The only extras
are dollar per session for incidental expenses,
and fee of eight dollars for Modern Languages
and fee of five dollars for Drawing, from those
who enter these classes. The sessions and yaca-
tions of the Preparatory Department are the same
as those of the College.

TO THE PUBLIC.

The tracts embraced in the above proclamation
of the President comprise all the residue OF the
lead mines yet to be brought. nto market south
of the Wisconsin river. They cover those mines
(particuarIy the portion situated in Ilinois) work
ed under former leases from the Government which
had not expired the date of the sale of the adja
cent mines, and therefore possess the advantage OF
incurring the increased expenses incidental to
opening uew mines, and most of them are believed
to be very productive. They are all more or less
conveniently situated in reference to the navlgable
rivers and other cheap means of transportation of
their products to St. Louis and arc in the midst of
a country yielding abundantly all the agricultural
nroducts of the latitude in which they located.

4.aALoW-C -C1rIzBEs:SThe. argument of the
Efeat author of the Compromise system, that
sfaSery had been abolished, and did not exist
in Cta}iffs5fFTrasisand New Mexico, by virtue of
Mexican laws, was net, and answered, with
signal ability, by Mr.sBERR1EN of Georgia ;
to whom tile countrSas indebted, for Q most
patriotic speech, and;als South, for aaoble
and eloquent vindication os sher- cause, His,
and Mr.. CALuoUs's spseshes when considered
together, form the comeaetest defence ever
made for any people. aths Senator from
South Carolina might have been termed the
Agamemnon of the r,sthe distinguished
Senator from Georgia should, at least, have
been called the Achilles of the fight. If he
was not really the Achilles in boldness, he
certainly deserved that appcIlation, from the
skill with which he used his weapon. To-
getber, they have wholly exhausted the ar
gument; and to them, and our other most
able Senator; Judge BUTLER, acknowledge
my obligations, for much-I have been able
to present to you in this argument. Indeed,
! have not aimed at any originality, but have
labored to express clearly the views, which
have forced me to the conclusions 1 shall
arrive at before / close.
AS was saying, the position of Mr.. CLAY,
that slavery had been abolished in New Mex.
leo and California, previously to their cession
to the United States, and did not exist there
by force of the Mexican statutes, was most
successfully encountered by Mr.. BEERIEs
and Mr.. SouLE, and, think, entirely over.
thrown.
The first decree of abolition in Mexico, il
appears, was made by GUERRERO. in 1929
who was then Dictator, and who, while in
vested with the highest powers to accomplish
particular object, transcended tho limits oi
his authority, to exercise the functions of the
whole people in their several assemblies

more by ,hc Ilc cd and tseasurc ef the South
than of tie N,.cr,h. Wonld'bo, at this janctrre,
an insupportablc wrong. California, after
her REIMBURSEMENT, by treaty, retained only
such of her laws,as were necessary to the
preservation of civil order. All Of her con-
stitutional or POLITICAL laws, and especially,
all, which were rcpugnant to the spirit of our
Constitution, had ceased to be binding. That
is the rule laid down by all the writer's on
international law.
Why, if all the laws of Mexico remained
effectiye, in our. late acquisitions, they hadpo
religious liberty therc-no liberty of cons
science, and, practically, no Constitutional
freedom; for I am sure there is none in
Mexico. ~,
NowsI must again ask, if the limits of
slavery, in the United States, havc1becn ire.
vocably fixed, in the councils of heaven, why
is not the question of its reception or rejec-
ton, in the Territories left to be settled, rs it
should be, by their own inhabitants? If'God
wills that there shall be no more slaveStates
in the Union, why will men, with their inflated
vanity. interfere with his high behests? Why
urge the Wilmot Proyiso:7 :. Why urge the
admission of California, and become particeps
criminis with reckless and dominecring
administration Why wave the sceptre of
power over our heads, and insult our weak
ness, if nothing is to be accomplished by it ?
! There 1cas, and there is an end to be gained.
Precidents are to be multiplied, until they
become law, and until they establish the
principle, that slavery cannot be tolerated in
this Republic. 1t is to be restrained within
such narrow bounds, as not only to force
upon us system of gradual emancipation,
but to enable the frce-soil majorities to over
ride US, in the councils Of the nation, and
effect our total political extinction.
If all the States in the Confederacy, and
every foot of land, owned by the Govern
ment, from the Gulf Of Mexico and the
Atlantic Ocean, to the shores of the Pacific
were to become slave territory, this instant
it would not increase, the number of slaves
in the United States, by asingle unit. Every
body is opposed to the eIimportation of ne.
fgroes from Africa, and there is a perfect ac.
quiescence, throughout he whole South, ii
!. the laws prohibiting the slave atrade. The
hostility,of the Norththen, to the extension
Of slavery, arises from ahselfsh policy te
4 swell their own majorities-to destroy the
. equilibrium of the GdSernment;; and topros
tratc the South at their feet.
