RrsrcsArIoS OF President WAYIANp.-We un-
terstand that Dr. Wayland has resigned the Presi-
dfnoy of Brown University, and that his resignation
viii take effect Immediately after the ensuing Com
nnencement lie will preside on that OCCASION and
then terminate his connection with the University
Dr. Waylsnd appointed soon after the resignation
Of President Messer In 1926, and entered upon ms
Office we believe, in January, 1877; the graduating
class OF the present year viii therefore be the twenty
nh IA tina, has gone forth from the University during
the period Of his Presidency. His term OF ONCE as
head Of the Institution has been longer than that Of
either Of his predect ssors that OF President Manning
having continued for 20 years that of President Maxcy
for 10 years and that Of President Messer for "a years.
Aeg so long period OF service in high and rspon-
sioie station, we are not surprised that he seeks In
retirement from its cares more ample leisure for the
prosecution Of those intellectual lebors which he may
well aspire TO accomplish. He will he followed in bis
retirement with the sfechonate gratitude Of his nu-
merous pupils and with the beet wishes of All the
friends Of the University. His resignation has thus
fsr been made 10 the Executive Board alone and We
are informed that meeting OF the Corporation Is 10 be
held q, al early day TO provide for tie vacancy which

Our correspondent at Washington nsrrates
some curious facts in the history Of the effort
made by Mr. Pierce to persuade Gov Reeder to
resign, in order to save the President the dis
agreeable necessity of turning him out in Obed-
fence to the requirements of Messrs. Davis,
Atcbison and StriDgfelow. 1t seems that among
other inducements, Gov. Reeder had the offer
Of the Mission to England in place of Mr..
Buchanan but that it was impossible to arrange
all the terms of the bargain, and it fell through.
We have good reason to believe that our cor
respondent is perfectly correct in his statements
on this interesting subject. Perhaps The Union
will contradict theml

From Central America We have conflicting
accounts. Our own correspondent at Grenada
states that Walker is totally defeated, and that
though Col. Kinney has landed at San Juan his
men are greatly Discontinued, and his prospects
in every respect gloomy. One Of the members
of IL Colonels little army on the other hand,
lets us know that Walkers expedition is still
likely to raise breeze between Costs Rica and
Nicaragua, and that the Colonel is going
on in the most wonderful and truly rossate
style. 1t is not certain, however, that
this writer speaks the sentiments Of 81 the
gallant spirits in the invading force, as be Is

Esteeming it a duty to throw all possible
light on the momentous questions involved in
the Imprisonment of PassmOre Williamson, we
copy on another page an article from The Pits
Jmgh Gazette on the use in this case of the writ
of habeas corpus, with another from The North
american examining the grounds on which
Judge Kane proceeded in committing that
memorable outrage with which his name will
long be connected. This second article we
have reason to believe is from the pen of an
eminent lawyer of Philadelphia. We think it
will amply repay the study of all who wish
thoroughly to investigate the subject.

The Election in Kentucky took place yesterday
The returns, as far as received indicate the prob
able success of the KnOw-Kothings Our figures
however, are too mesger to warrant us to speak
with certainty or even with fair probability.
In North Carolina there is a little prospect of

From Tennessee we have nothing to change

surd.
We have few words from Alabama, but they

This is an increase of less than one-hfEh, While
the reputation Increased mole than third
Beside this, there was falling of of 1, 1861 ol
bushels in the crop of rye; OF 42,oUO, lbl bush
els in the potato crop; and the crop OF buck
wheat was only increased l,665, 1863 bushels
Orchard produce showed no increase in guam
tity, while the increase in the supply OF animals
would bear but small comparison with the in
crease of population. The latter is estimated,
by our correspondent, to be two millions above
the proportiOnate increase Of produce. This he
regards as the cause of the high prices. There
ere other reasons, the principal OF which IL the
increased dexterity of mOnOpolizers aud dealers,
in combining together and even causing the
produce to be sent over and sold In Liverpool
at lower pri:es then in New-lork, rather
than allow good harvest to lower the prices
in the home market.
If people will crowd themselves together in
Eastern cities, aud thus cause large demand
where by market regulations farmers and mllers
are kept from bringing their produce and selling IN
a direct manner to the consumers these high
starystion-prices viii be kept up. AS remedy
for tbs over crowding and these exhorbiant
prices our correspondent suggests that the same
amount Of money which is now expended IN giving
relief 10 the poor and destitute be employed in
forwarding TO the agricultural districts Of the
West the foreign immigrants. He speaks in the
most emphatic manner of the great need that IS
felt Of help in doors and out on the Western farms,
where there is now " abundance and TO spare, and
but few persons to enjoy it. For the want Of
dairymaids, be says, men have to spend their time
in attending to the cows while the more important
branches Of husbandry are necessarily neglected.
He calculates that at least 10000 persons could
be annually induced to leave the miserable
hGuIts in the cities, where they must be half
starved and become victims of vicious habits, for
the fertile plains of the West, where they could
enjoy in abundance q rich reward for their labor.
Such suggestions have been frequently made,
but unless special measures are taken TO carry
out the project the evils complained of must
continue. The emigration societies have done
good DEAL but their operations might be
greatly increased by the establishment of a more
complete understanding between the Western
farmers aud the promoters Of these societies in
the East. There should be a systematic record
kept in New-YOrk of the places in the West
where male and female farm labor is wanted,
so that on the arrival ofa ship-load ofimmigrants
reliable information could be given as TO where
employment could be certainly obtained.
Now that Castle Garden is the depot where
immigrants are to be received it would be jus.
the place to establish such an agency, so as to
secure the speedy transit of the immigrants into
the West before the vicious habits of the City
can have destroyed all taste for country life.
