establishing a seminary oil learning
In consequence OF this proposition, the
rrcsby,cry appointed committee to WIS.,
i, Upton to inquire and report uuon the
proprie,y Of accepting it. The commit
tee visited Upton, and were induced to
call a meeting OF Presbytery. When the
Presbyterv met, matters did no, prove to
be in condition to Justify any immediate
action, and the subject was postponed un-
til the spring meeting, which will take
place in Muscatine, on Thursday, the
18th of April next.
In the meanwhile ii is made my duty
to address you communication on the
subject.
The question at issue is the permanent
establishment of an academy OF the fl st
class in Tip on. The Presbytery has
proposed for two or three years past to
esta blish at an early day such an in'titu-
ton at some point within It's bounds, to
the upbuilding OF which its energles might
be devoted and its resources employed. -
The plan contemplates an institution
which, whilst under UNCONVENTIONAL con-
troll. and imbued with a decidedly relg-
ious influence, would not be Justly charge
! able with sectGridn, or iatrude The ptcn-
haritiss of Ire Presbyterian church upon
those of other professions. A standing
committee has had charge OF this bust
ness, and propositions have been made
| for the location of the institution; but as
vet no proposal has commanded itself TO
acceptance.
1t is the purpose Of Prestytery if 1t
! commits itself to such an enterprise, 10
create an institution which shall be an
honor to its founders, an efficient means
of usefulness where located, and deserv-
: i,ry t'ne confidence Of the community at
large. To accomplish this it will require

Representative. This is as it should be.
s.g~ The following rather significant
paragraph is from the Chicago Times, the
reputed organ Of Senator Douglas. The
sentiment Of the Times, 10 say the least
of it, differs very materially from the
general understanding OF the people on
the subject. The Dubuque Express, some
time since, denounced US as undemo-
cratic because we were ant-Nebras ka,
and called upon the soverigns to crush us
out, for backsllding from the true faith.
Will the Express and Herald, OF the
Express half OF that paper, endorse this
statement Of the Chicago Times
Not Test.

phatic language that can be employed 10.
deny an assertion, that there has ever
been any attempt on the part OF tie Ne
bIaska bill, 10 make all approval o! that
measure test OF democracy. The author
OF that bill by 10 word, written or spoken
ever sought to make that bill a test oil any
ma MS democracy. Any democrat might,

ion with The supporters oi that measure,
and no word OF censure would have been
