Mr.. President, you will lbear me witness that

I Mr.. President, you willghear me witness that
have never nadeiany.
In all literature, in history, in poetry, and
in the Scripture themselves, the crow of the
cock has been used as highly illustrative and
indicative language. The game cock, when
he stands in the presencesof his adversary,
gives forth u note of delinace, inspired by
the danger and the excitement Of the con.
test. aud aninlates him tomove on upon the
path of peril to victory or death. But how
different, sir, is the clarion note of the chan
liclcer when he proclaims to us the coming
of the day. 1t is as different note as an.
ger is from peace. II is the note Of inteli.
gence, of hope, Of peace. say, sir, that if
This bill shall pass, aud shall be acquiesced
in cordially by all sections of the Union, it
will be the note Of good omen. 1t will be
the clarion note ofzllie chanticleer, proclaim.

her lit will proclaim peace To all sections

conciled.. However, these Northern gen.

ton, will change the figure. If they will
continue to fan tile torch whch has been
lighted by discord, do not know how soon
the note NAV be changed TO that Of the
proud bird to which hayeallnded.
Mr.. President, Ihave said more than in
tended, but allow me to add few words
more. What a spectacle will the United
States exhibit at this crisis, and at this event
full period of the worlds history! Sir, at
time when war is likely to take place at
the East which may mark the age at a time
when war may take place to change the
whole character of European power, shall
we exhibit to the world these evidences of
weakness and distraction! 1t may he ont
of place for me to say 4 word upon this
matter; but must say, that do not think
that the United States are likely 10 be in
any danger so long as wargis going on, be-
cause we may mantain theposiiion and the
safety Of neutral; but | will make this pre-.
dicion: If Russia shall lie crushed us
power in Europe by the ;combinatior of
France and England, the termination of that
war will place France aud England in
position to induce them 10 interfere with
American affairs. They will come out of
that war, if they shall crush Russia, with
triumphant armies, accustomed to war and
victory. wi,h.,". i---' 90

You will agree with me think, in saying,
that much of the talent and learning OF the
Professor is thrown away upon minds, not
sufficiently tutored for il just appreciation OF
scientific teaching.
This must, in the main, he ascrbed to de.
frctive preparation. Aud the fault is not so
much with the teachers of our academies,
as in the organization oflhc academies them
selves. Can one man, for instance, while
attending to the disciplinary duties Of the
schooIroom, instruct thoroughly in all the
branches usually laugh in our academies
in Latin, Greek, Mathematics, Natural and
Moral Philosophy, History. Geography, and
almost the whole cyclopGdia! impossible
Yet this, at present, is required Of nearly all
the teachers in the State. The result is, that
instruction has been given in Il most imprr-
feet manner: the teacher has been kept from
all chance Of distinction, or from making
proficiency in scholarship, and, after few
wears, has usual y Il broken down constilu.
tion.
TO remedy these delects-in other words,
to enable the instructor to attain 10 Il mas
terry OVER the branches he may he called on
to teach, and to train the minds of our youth
by sound, accurate instruction, the State will
be compelled to establish academies of an
enlarged character. AS an imperfect outline
of a plan, would respectfully suggest the
following: Let six academies he formed in
suitable places-one, for instance, in each
Congressional District-wih an organization
after this manner: There shall be Il Board
of Trustees, to he appointed by the Legsla.
ture, from the respective Districts of each
Congressional District, whose duty it shall
be, in connection with the superintendent of
public education, to order the erection nt
proper buildings, and TO supervise the in<ti-
tutons when established. Each academy
shall contain eight chief instructors:

losophy aud Evidences Of Christianity.

sion, that there may be a difference OF npin-
ion, and very rishtrul one; as TO how far
such powers of Legislation may go. As the
honorable Senator from North Carolina has
said, under our legislation, at one time, a
Governor and three jud ges were authorized
to govern a Territory. We did hive such
regulation; but think it was all wrong.

think it was outside tue record, and CONTRA
dicted by the record, when he assumed that
this bill either recognized or countenanced
that species of sovereignty which, in his own
language, he has described, and which ! will
not undertake to explain. So far from be-
ing so, the bill is recognition of the fact
that Congress has the original and exclusive
authority upon the subject of territorial gov
ernmcnts, and that territorial government
can take. mark the word, use it as iaw-
yer--no more than Congress may give, and
that Congress can give no more than is con.
ferrable by the Constitution of the United
States. So that, If upon this occasion, Con.
gress has though, proper to part with
great deal of the original and exclusive pow
er which it once had, aud to confer it upon
