PUBLIC LECTUREs.-It is gratifying to see
the increasing demand for Lectures among
the people. This style of communicating
ideas and imparting knowledge, beginning
in the cities, is now becoming general in the
towns. Many of the towns of Virginia are
establishing associations, one of whose pur-
poses is to have winter lectures. Such a So
ciety exists in Fredericksburg. The last
Herald of that place has the following para
graph with regard to an arrangement for
series of lectures from Mr. Baldwin:
Lecturcs-We understand that the Young Mems
Society are making arrangements for the purpose

engagement with the assurance of rich literary

MIR. bALpwIN's Observation-Disclosures the
largest audiences drawn together st the Athe-
neum this season. assembled on Tuesday and
Thursday nights 70 hear Mr.. Baldwin's leo
lures on tho Good Old Times, and The
Yankees and Southerners." A literary friend
hands us the following notice of the latter.
As Dir. Baldwin Is well known to be connect
ed with the editorial department of this pa
per, it is but just to him to say that the no.
iices taken of his public Efforts are published
without his knowledge. Il is deemed sim-
pie act of justice to him that such notices
should appear in the Dispatch. We make
this explanation as well with regard to what
has appeared as to what may appear in this
respect. The friend before referred to say:
Mr. Bald wins lecture on Thursdsy evening last
before the Athenaum was one OF the most success.
su efforts OF the kind to which we have ever had
the good fortune to listen. The audience was a
large and brilliant one, attracted well by the
tame OF the lecturer, a. by curiosity to know in
what way be would handle subject at once deli
cate and peculiar. This subject yankees and
| Souihernersn admitted certainly of very different
modes OF treatment, and as the speaker would have
necessarily to address many OF both oil s1ee
of persons. 1t not an easy matter TO de so WIN
cit II sn0lDg the een6lOlitlfe OF sOut IctuoS thc
most fastidions Atheuian the most sensitive oil
the f. F. VS.. could have taken excephoneto ein-
gle remark that fell from the lecturers lips Inc
effect of such must we think, prove hi2n.
| y salutary In conducting TO better acquaintance
among ourselves, the one OF the other ana IN re
moving many of those unfounded prejud,"es which
obtain happily between the citizens OF dinerent
cectiens our country.
Mr. Baldwin paid just and glowing tribute to the
excellencies of the New England character-their
independence their public spirit and enlightened
liberaiy and perhapsth most highly wrought Pof-
| ton of the whole performance was his ieiicitous
| vindication of the Yankees from the charge OF
cowardice brought against them BY that boanerges
| of the pulpit the Rev. Theodore Parker.
| Mr. Baldwin possesses in high degree one OF the
greatest qualifications for the pleasing lecturer-he
e humorist of the first water. No one In the land
whose talents are now exercised in the lecturer
| desk Holmes and SAKE not excepted, excels him
in this respect Nor does his humor SO overiay the
solder and didactc parts OF his lectures as
make us lose sight of the wholesome truths ne
would enforce. We gratifed to hear thst mr
Baldwin has yet another treat in store Tor u.s. ano

THE SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER tor
January contains an attractive table of con-
tents. It's accomplished editor, Mr.. John r.
Thompson, is once more at his post, having
returned from his European tour. With re-
cruited strength and energies, he will give a
new impetus to his favorite work, and, If
possible make it worthier than ever of pub
lie favor.
The present season affords an excellent OPP
portunity for new subscribers to send in their
names to the Messenger In the Prospectus
for the year 1855, the proprietors assure the
public that no exertions will be omitted on
their part to maintain the high character OF
the work, and to challenge the patronage OF
all who value sterling literary merit. For
twenty years, the Messenger has been an Or
nament of Southern literature and has re-
flected faithfully the Southern mind. Whilst
in no manner sectional it has nobly vindica-
ted, as it will continue to vindicate, the South
from the assaults of its enemies The South
owes it a debt of gratitude which it should
hasten to repay, and in justice to itself, as its
enemies employ literature as an instrument of
attack, should meetthem on their own ground
and beat them back with their own weapons.
