John Randolph Tucker, Esq.

The Alexandria Sentinel pays warm tribute TO
a lecture delivered by John Randolph Tucker,
ESQ, before the Young Mems Christian Associs-
ton of that city. SIT was" says the Sentinel, "a
connected, compact argument, invested with the
most beautiful rhetoric, and adorned with the
graces of imagery. 1t occupied two hours in its
delivery OF course any such sketch would
have room for, of discourse of the character and
length of this would do injustice to the speaker and
his argument We shall not therefore attempt one
We will merely state, that commencing with the
conviction impressed upon the consciousness
of our race at the creation, that there is
God, he demonstrated by the rules of logic recog-
Missed all other subjects, that that God must be
the Christians God, and the Bible his revealed
will. The conclusion, in which he called upon all
to choose between God and no God-to reject the
faith that beheved-nothng the Joy that was
cheerless-the hope that was without expectation
the grave that never opens-and instead of
these to take to the heart the light and life and i'm
mortality of the Gospel-was indeed thrinpIv
eloquent"
1t is cheering to see the first inteects of Virgin
ia devoting their powers to the vindication of
Christianity. VIM. c. Rives, the veteran states
man of the South, and among tha very first of our
youthful statesmen, johnson Barbour and Ran
dolph Tucker, have struck blows which w nj he

The London correspondent of the National In
teuigencer says that in Paris the belief is generally
entertained that the negotiations will result in the
establishment of peace. Russia, he says, is anx-
ious, France willing, and Austria desires for peace
The Patrie and the Constitutional, upon this sub
ject, say:
Peace VIII be made, because peace is neces
sty of our epoch but it will doubtless be made
under more stable and satisfactory conditions for
the West, from the fact of the English having cor
rected, by their reserve, the harm that might be
done by the spontaneous and unreflective vices of
the French journals"
After summing up the whole case, the Intel
gencers correspondent says: Upon the whole, we
think there is good deal of completely in the mat
tiers to be arranged but probably not more than
was reasonable to expect in settlement which
concerns or less. the best interests of nearly
every nation in Europe"
