which was formally organized at Annapolis on the
25th of August. The movement is now, howev-

of the same thing in other Southern State as well

the former are for the purpose Of opposing Slave

them.

The news is less important than usual.
Peace rumors were as abundant as was ex-
pected. The Gear is said to have authorized
Pussia to propose terms on his behalf to the
allied soyereigns. This lacks combinations;
but nothing is more probable. After what
has been seen at Sebastopol it appears that the
ultimate infiction Of very severe losses on
Russia is only question Of time and money;
and unless internal trouble should prevent the
allied sovereigns from accomplishing their de-
signs, neither of these two requisites is likely
to fail them. The bread question in England
and the chronic restlessness of the people Of
France are strong allies Of the Gear, certainly;
but, this mail, we hear nothing Of their making
Roadway.
Sweden is said to be about to join the
Western alliance. This also has been long ex-
pected and will take no one by surprise. The
story has been all along that Sweden was
willing enough to join the Western Powers
against her hereditary foe, but that until their
power to protect her against Russia was de-
monstrated, she declined mourning any risk.
CanAbert, it is surmised, was sent to Sweden
u prove W CWeucb tudt Luc CdptuEc VI
Sebastopol, South, amounted to demonstra-
ton that the Allies could, in given time,
and with proper engines, achieve the capture
or destruction Of Cronstadt. And the present
rumor that the Swedes have joined the alli-
ance must, in this view, be regarded as equiva-
lent to an admission on their part that they
coincide in this opinion.
From the seats Of war, we hear nothing.
A bombardment Of the Russian works at Sc
bastopol, North, is talked of; but this can hard
ly be serious. A bombardment across the bay
could not do much damage to earthworks, or
pave the way for an assault in steamers and
boats. No movement in the field is attempted
mo attack on Simpheropol, or Perekop: and
the allied leaders bid fair to earn the nick
name, if they do not emulate the fame, of that
Roman general who was known as the Pro-
crastinator or Delayer.
Commercially, the news is unfavorable. A
decline is noted in both cotton and bread
stafs, and though the funds have risen, the
tone of the reports leads one to conjecture
that the stringency of the London money mar
ket is more severe than before.

Oh 1iHS,
The militia of the States-very imperfectly
organized, and, indeed, wholly unnecessary in
the new States except as q means of drawing
arms from the general government--number
something over million and half of men.
This amount Of force is always accessible, and
IT is composed exclusively of persons who are
accustomed to the use of arms, aud more or
less practiced in the tactics Of the camp. II
is the finest military establishment in the world
the most effective army in the world, as will
be seen If II is ever called into action. 1t is
all the more powerful and efficient that il is
composed of the very elements which sustain
the government. 1t admits Of no other militia
nv authority-it undertakes to conduct the
peaceful operations of business, to afford pro-
lection to all our great interests and IL its in
stitutions shall be menaced by enemies at home
or abroad, IL will be found to exert its resist
less force to preserve them.
1t will be seen by our threatening transat-
lantic neighbors that in the very nature of
things, this tremendous military power--if
We may be allowed the paradox--is one
of peace and Of order. 1t represents the in
dustry of the country--it lays at the foundation
of the government itself, which ii maintains.

Furman Observation-Disclosures of Col Orr

f'urman Untversity--Address of Col Orr.
This distinguished gentleman, on yester-
day, delivered an address before the litera-
ry societies Of the Furman University, the
students, faculty and trustees of the institu-
ton, and large and brilliant assembly Of
ladies and gentlemen, in the new and Ca
PRECIOUS hall of the court house just con-
structed. 1t was the first meeting Of any
kind ever assembled in the building. Before
the speaker was introduced, the Rev. VIM.
B. johnson, D. D., according to the an
nouncement, offered up an appropriate pray
er to Almighty God.
The address was an able one the speak
er discussing principally the superiority of
the University system over the College plan.
10 US the argument was conclusive, and we
presume it was SO to many who heard it.
The recommendation of the early establish
ment Of a law school and medical depart
ment in the University, we trust, will be
carried out by the Trustees. That has al
ways been the intention.
Col. Orr alluded, in the beginning Of his
address, to the death of Professor Minis,
aud to the death of some of the students,
in most feeling and eloquent manner.
The tribute to Professor Minis was felt
by all to have been merited and becoming
the occasion, as likewise the aIusion to the
untimely death of those young men who
have been taken away in the midst Of their
preparation for the duties of life. -
Wepresume the address will. be publish,
ed and read generally in the State, and that
lit will make an impression. On one. sub
ject, especially, it will doubtless elicit much
discussion. We allude to the argument in
favor Of the State appropriating money an.
nually to all the denomfnational colleges
Of the State. We cannot concur in The
propriety Of the scheme, and think there
are many weighty objections to it, We ex
kpect to discuss this subject when time. per
