AJustConinIinnent.

The Liverpool Times, with less professions
than its London namesake, understands Amer
lean politics and the American character much
better. Commenting on our late Presidens
tial election, it thus pays Us a compliment
which no other people yet merit:
at is amazing how soon party spirit, carried
to the verge of excess, subsidies in the United
States when the will of the sovereign People
becomes known. The minority bow with in-
stinctive respect to that numerical preponder-
ance which it is the genius Of the American
Constitution to represent. lewever fierce the
struggle, however superhuman the efforts
which have been made to secure victory, the
beligerents, when the battle is over, lay down
their arms without FORGETTING each others res
spect. 1t requires long course of educational
training in practical freedom to attain this
control, bnt it is possessed by the Americans
to an ext<ht unknown in any other country
where free Institutions exist; and the solution
of the engma must be looked for in the fact
that every man feels himself an atom in the
great total-the equal Of the foremost in the
land; and the self respect so generated pays to
the State the homage of an ungrGdging sub
mission. Men deserve to be tree who can
make such sacrifices for individual opinion, and
yet yield with patriotic philosophy to the
course of events which they cannot control.
The Union stands in little danger of disruption
while this noble sentiment animates the
breasts of American citizens"
Nashville daily patriot. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1855-1857, 1856-12-24

when the time comes that his services are de-
manded, he is ready trained for the service, edu-
Gated IN the way he should go, and will walk
therein The whole process should be one of
careful avoidance of influences tending to era
ate bad habits, teaching the animal what it will
be required to know, before that requisition
comes, and by education supercede the necessi-
ty for the unphilosophical, and often brutal
breaking"
The advantages Of careful training during
growth, are many and important. 1t affords
the best possible means of developing the ami
NAL in every respect; keeps him under the con-
slant care Of the owner, and induces him to
think and reason upon what he does-creates a
sympathy, SO to term it, between them, which
elevates the character of both. 1t prevents the
vicious habits usually engendered from care
lessness of the owner, and which cannot always
be eradicated, and avoids the cruelty and abuse
Of "breaking" The horse may be made tracta-
bic, reliable, and SAFE without having his ener-
gy and spirit crushed out of him; and he may
be noble, active and proud in his movements,
without being FESTIVE, irritable and treacherous,
and as a consequence, will be more easily kept
in fine condition and good health 1t is only a
continuation of the principles of breeding ,ex-
tended to the full development Of the animal,
here advocated; and, while all cannot be equal
ly successful in this, as in any other of the pur-
suits Of life, all will be more successful, and
richly rewarded for their efforts to attain it.
The principle reasons for the general unframed
character of horses, seems to be the lack of any
systematic effort at training, and the uncontrol-
led passions of those who have the handling
and care of horses. 1t is no uncommon thing
to see angry bipeds venting their passion upon
unofending animals, as the most convenient
recipient of their ire. And such scenes are
not confined to the street, the highway, or the
farm; but are found in all. The effects are,
mischievous, and ruinous to the best interests
of the owner, because injuring and depreciating
in value his property in the market Horse
education really, is marketable commodity
and may be, indeed always is, estimated in dol
lars and cents.-Ohi0 Valley Farmer.

The black Machinitto far over the river.
With eye-bslls red-bIazing glarcd out on his prey
A moment his sable plumes rustic and quivers--
His eye flames with yengeance,-he speeds on bis way.
evifswifer and stronger his pinion sweeps onward,
Oh noble young victim prepare for the worst
His red beak yswus open. his dread swoop Is down
And they hear his hot heart throb With passions ae-
eurst.
Loud thunders his pinion,-his talons he gathers
To strike at the heart of the hero,-tis GER
Hal the tpanging Of bow-ssriagsi the snOS-tuftsd
feathers
OF twenty white arrows are dyed in his gore
Then wild shouts Of welcome up surging from demons
That hide in the ghoul- haunted cayerns Of voc,
Rose dread the air,-at the terrible summons
The spirit fed outward. the black corse lay low.
stIn stands 0watoga the dauntIess, before them,
Nor arrow, nor talon his blood has revealed
For the Master Of Life in His mercy held Ger him
The gOld-EoYen sunshine's invisible shield
But to mark still the spot where this fierce demon
vuiture
Had rested turrets aud bait lements gray,
OF the caverns he sought for the bloody sepulture
OF thousands Of victims,- his innocent prey
The good spirits came, and with sable emblazon,
Engraved his dark image far up the lone height;
This work Of "the Father" and trust to his might
Pronounced Pfa-saw.

UNIvERsITY OF NASHVILLE,

UNIVERSITY OF NASHVILLE, I
Collegiate Department, Dec lS 1856.
Whereas, a thorough knowledge of the phonetics,
orthOepy, and photography OF the English language
is of great importance to the scholar, and as the
Rev. VIM. Muikey has discovered, from many
years. experience in giving lectures on the rud-
mental principles OF the language, a rapid and Sci
ent6c method Of imparting knowledge OF the
same, by means of charts, requiring only three or
four DAYS for this purpose; therefore,
Resolved, That the Faculty deem it prudent to
suspend for the necessary time, the ordinary stu
dies of the pupils, in order that they may obtain
that knowledge which, from its occupying much
time on the old system, is too often inperiectly
qured in Primary Schools.

Below we copy recommendation to teachers,
and the friends Of education in Davidson County,
with the action of the Faculty of the University of
Nashville Thus it will be seen that steps are being
taken in the right way to introduce Mr.. Mulkey's
system to the public, and that the University has
done what we earnestly requested in an editorial a
few days since. We hope others will follow their
example.
