RICHMOND COLLEGE.

We are greatly pleased to see by the an
nual report of the Trustees, &c, for the ses-
sion Of 1a54-'5, that this excellent institution
is advancing in its career of prosperity, and
usefulness. The number of students for the
session is l41, and an addition to the Col.
lege edifce is now making, which will fur
nish accommodations for seventy four stu.
dents, besides lectures and recitation rooms,
and will be ready for use at the opening of
the next session.
We need not commend the claims of this
College to the people of Richmond, who are
familiar with the advantages it presents for
asound education, and who personally know
the qualifications and worth of its excellent
faculty. The moderate terms are, especially
in these times, consideration which will
not be overlooked or lightly appreciated
We rejoice that not only in our own comm.
nifty, but, through every part of the State
the advantages of this unpretending but ysl.
liable institution are beginning to be under.

.NINCENTIvE TO UNION.

In view of the scenes taking place in the
Fast ought not Americans to repress Sec
t;on., ;eslousies and strife, and to seek only
the glory and stability of the common gov
arumentl We behold all Europe distracted
bv . s,rugele of monarchs for power, whilst
tn. welfare of the people does not enter into
the consideration Of any of the belligerenss'
and the masses have no farther interest in
the wars than to fight the battles and pay the
taxes. Is this q time to be sacrificing to
petty sectional jealousies the only free coun-
try in the worldl What would be our con-
dition, distracted by internal disccrd, should
the allies, triumphant in the East carry ont
their threat ofregulating affairs in the West
and proceed by force of arms to put down
the domestic institution against which Louis
Napoleon proclaimed hostility in London !
The Crimes expedition has proved that in
one month, France and England. should they
see fit, could throw two hundred thousand
veteran soldiers upon our shores. In view
of such possibility, ought we not to stand
together, and instead of constant sectional
chickering's and jealousies, present to the
world united and compact front?

TURKEY.

There is souas consolation, IN the crusade
of the Western Powers against Christian
nation in behalf of Turkish infdels. that
their protection of Turkey is likely to be
sthat of the hawk over the dove, covering
and devouring it." The cruel, sensual, big
oted race, whose disgusting crimes and saw
age ferocity have long provoked the justice
of Heaven, will soon be driven from the face
of Europe No one familiar with the horri-
BILE atrocities and the unparalleled inhuman-
ity with which the Turks fer centuries have
prosecuted their helpless Christian subjects,
but must rejoice to behold the many signs
that their race ID nearly run The sick man,
if he does not perish by his open enemy,
Russia, will surely die in the embrace of bis
loving allies France ia making every pre-
pxration at Constantinople for long stay,
and will fully reimburse herself for the ex-
penses of the war before she leaves. II the
Turks can't liquidate her bill in hard cash.
she will take possession of the real estate
ard content herself with Constantinople.

THE DUELLISTS.

The N. York Tribune, thirsting for South
ern blood, calls theoretically upon the au
thorities OF New ork, to secure the parties
in the late duel and bring them to the pun
ishment which the laws of New York affix to
their offence. The penalty is hanging in
case one of the parties is killed. or the peni-
Tertiary, even if life is not taken and neither
party is injured.
The secret of the Tribune's zeal in behalf
Of law and order, is the fact that one Of the
combatants, Mr.. Breckenridge, is Kentuck-
ian. He belongs to that hated South, which
the Tribune considers it o pious duty to
curse and denounce with every issue. For
that reason, it has industriously sought to
fasten the origin and resp onsibility of the
quarrel upon him, than which nothing can
be more false and unjust If it can now
bring h.n 20 the gallows, its vindictive soul
will be enraptured. But, Leavenworth is
not yet dead, and Breckenridge, in any event.
will be scarcely verdant enough to place
hims elf within the reach of New York laws.
Nor need the Governor of New York make
demand for him. The people of the free
States have prevented black fugitives, the
lawful property of Southern men, from be-
ing given up to their masters, and Kentuck-
isns will very likely laugh at the absurd
idea of delivering up Kentucky gentleman
to the hands of infuriate abolitionists. Don't
talk Of law,-you have set the example Of
breaking it, and must expect to SOW what
you reap.

spIRIr OF THE PRESS.

Tho Examiner comm nts upon the American
Convention at Philadelphia. 1t ssys Il 10 remarka-
BILE that Southern men will consent to remain Ia
voluntary counsel with such men ~ Wilson, the
aboiionis.. II believes that this b the first Inc
stsnce IN which any National organization In the
Uuted States bad tolerated an unreserved discus
sion OF slavery In National convocatiou. II 10 Inn
possible TO get platform Of national political or
sanixation elsewhere than In the Constitution and
when any party forsakes that, and appoints COM
mistees TO devise new compromises 40 q substitute
for the plain and simple provisions Of that instru-
ment, Il proves that there 10 no hope for the South
from its action. q.
The Whig also has an article on the Convention
II says that no one believed that Wilson and the
ianaticai horde OF the New England States would
be satisfed with the platform adopted by the Con-
venton and Ii IL, therefore, not surprised to see
minority report emapating from, and embodyine
the views OF that party. II IL cheering to observe
the prospect which the Convention In Philadelphia
sfords that far as the great party which It rep
resents 10 concerned, there will be no further ex
cuse for extremists, North or South, TO keep up
perpetual and everlasting din on the subjec. o.
slavery. and to plot treason against the Coz ititu'
tion and the laws. n.
The Enquirer says the compromise, AZ reported
10 the Philadelphia Convention Ia q most miserable
Southern Know Nothing presses. II ssys such an
impotent result might actually be expected from
national body" that admits the sboliiionist, VIII
son. into close utilization with Southern men, while
1t excludes the Louisiana delegation on account o.
its relgioo. II says that Gov. Gardner OF Massa'
ch sests whose 'conserva tive" course was so ex
tolled by Southern X. Ms has taken the back tract
and stands with Wilson.
The Penny Post, after enumerating the recen
successes of the allies at Sebasopo expresses the
opinion which 1t has always entertained that they
will succeed.
