Considerable progress has already been made
towards the accomplishment of the enterprise,
site having been selected for the erection of a
suitable building. The place chosen is on the
Cumberland mountain, in the State of Ten
nessee, and is called Suannee. 1t is said to be
admirably adapted for the purpose, both on ac-
count of its location and its accessibility by d.
rect railroad routes from Savannah, Charleston.
and the cities and towns North. East, West and
South
The plan which has been submitted in the ad-
dress referred to- provides that the University
should be wholly under the perpetual direction
of the Protestant Episcopal Church, that the
Board of Trustees should be composed of the
Bishops of the doceses, cr oefoo, so uniting,
and one clergyman and two laymen from each
diocess, to be elected by the Conventionsof the
same; that the sum of $500 900 shall be the least
amount with which the enterprise shall be
by conservation Of the University Asso-
citation shall always be Chancellor of the
University. The other points of the plan
consist simply of the details of the organza-
tion--those we have given presenting its prin-
cpal features. The institution, we should add,
is to be known by the title of "Thc University
Of the South"
Although, apart from the religious character
Of this movement, there is no allusion whatever
in the address to the cause in which il has
originated there is no doubt that it has
provoked and encouraged. If it has not grown
out of the anti-slavery agitation at the North.
Throughout the whole existence of the republic,
the shareholders Of the South, except in COM
parativcly few instances, have had their sons
educated in Northern colleges and universities
but the movements Of the anti-slavery party
must soon lead to the withdrawal from our
great Northern institutions Of learning the
Southern portion Of their pupils. To this re-
duction in their numbers and means of support
they may attribute the sectional animostics and
feelings engendered by the abolitionists.

A Nnshington Letter.

10 the Editors Of the Ohio State Journal:
/ am somewhat surprised at the Republi.
can letter-writers, who appear anxious to
have it understood that Senator Douglas is
in good faith opposed to the admission of
Kansas under its slave-holding Constitu-
ton. 1850
He doubtless so represents himself; but
the fact that his friends in the House Of
Representatives, on Saturday night joined
in the support of Mr.. Orr as candidate for
Speaker of the House, giving the Admins
tration the entire control of that BODY. is
conclusive evidence to the mind of every
experienced man, that they have given up
all real opposition TO tho Kansas villainy.-
With their own consent and assistance they
are bound hand and foot, and held at the
mercy of the President
Mr.. Douglas has his object in representing
himself as opposed to the Lecompton
Constitution. By such representations, aud
by the aid of Republican letter-writers and
editors who are green enough to believe
him in earnest, he may obtain reelection
to the Senate. But any man who has been
conversant with Congressional nansuver-
ing as long as Mr.. Douglas has, must know
that his time for effectual opposition is now
past. He may make strong speech
against it,-many of his friends may vote
against it-others may be sick aud unable
to vote; but Buchanan will carry Just
enough of them to consummate the vii
lainy.
He has suffered the Administration tc
grasp the entire power of the House. Hi
men are now at the mercy of the Execu
tive.
True, when the bill comes up for action
some northern Democrats will make speech
es against it. This will be permitted b,
their southern masters. AMI some viii
even vote against it; but enough to carr
the bill will be found by Executive patron
age, at any day il shall be necessary.
Northern members who profess to be op
posed to the Lecompton villainy, gave thei
votes for q speaker whom they knew TO b,
in favor of it. They did this knowingly
with the perfect conviction that it will brin.
about the admission Of Kansas under tn
slaveholding constitution. Yet these sam
members, when they return home, will tel
their constituents they have done what the
could to prevent this outrage upon free
dom.
1t is mortifying to SEQ our letter-writer
and editors deceived by these miserable pre-
lenses, and hold up to the people an idc
that Douglas and northern Democrats wi
defeat the Lccompton yiIlainy. Now
wish to say to your readers that republican
are deceived, misled.
The only result Of this effort of the Re
publican press is to aid Douglas and hi
friends in deceiving the people, aud obtai
re-elections to Congress. Yours,
p. S.-I trust that neither Republica
editors nor the people of our Slate wi
lend any aid to the enemies of liberty.

Defence OF Douglas agafnss ths
South. s 4

Forneys Press, takes up the cudgels for
Senator Douglas against the charge Of
treachery to the Southland the insulting
compliment paid him by the Richmond
South, that '.he was politician Of consid-
erable promise, and that association with
southern gentlemen bad smoothed down
the the rugged vulgarities of his early sds-
cation, and he had come to be quite q decent
and Osp-behaved person"
On this the Press comments as follows:-
Wo do not undcrrate the sensibilities Of
the people Of the South when We say that
this monstrous language, applied to Ssna-
tor Douglas, will cxcite the indignation of
every honest man in that quarter Of the
Union
After an eloquent statement of Mr..
Douglass services 10 the slaveholding COO
ton, Forney continues: -a
"And il is upon such record as this
that Judge Douglas is subjected to the cal
umnies Of the South When Stephen Al.
Douglas is traduced after this fashion BY
southern democrats il is time for national
democrats to pause" - n-at

The Rev. DIR. B., of Philadelphia, is
noted for brief sententious sayings in the
pulpit and out of it. AS he was coming
down Chestnut street the other day, gem
tleman asked him, "Sir, can you tell me
how to fiud the Sheriff's Office ~ ayes, sir"
was the reply; "EVsry time you earn tive
dollars spend tenf" Saying this, tho Doc
tor walked on, leaving the questioner gaping
upon the sidewalk. He was stranger who
had come to town on business, and asked
for information; but the more he pondered,
the more he was convinced that his unknown
informant bad answered him wisely. ~

THE SIGH.
MY FATHER.

ri NON. HENRY b. JACKSON.
As die tho embers on the hearth,
And DER the floor the shadows fall, 80
And ereeps the chirping cricket forth,
And ticks the death watch in the wall
see form in yonder chair, ri
That grows beneath the waning light;
There are the wan, sad features--there
The pallid brow and locks Of whitei
Ny Fatheri when they laid the down,
And henped the clay upon thy breast,
And left the sleeping all alone
Upon thy narrow couch ofrcst,
know not why could not weep
The soothing drops refused to ROLL
And obi that grief is wild and deep,
Which settles fearless ON the souli
But when saw thy vacant chair,
Thine idle hat upon the wall,
Thy book-the pencilled passage. where
Thine eye had rested last of all;
The tree, beneath whose friendly shade
Thy trembling feet had wandered forth;
The very prints those feet had made,
When last they teebly trod the earth;
And thought, while countless ages fed,
Thy vacant seat would vacant stand
Unworn thy hat, thy book unread,
EGaeed thy footsteps from the sand;
And widowed, in this cheerless world,
The heart that gave its love to thee;
Torn, like vine, whose tendrils eurled
More closely round the falling treel
Oil Father, then for her and thee,
Gushed madly forth the scorehing tears,
And oft, and long, and bitterly,
Those tears have gushed in later years;
For, as the world grows cold around,
And things take on their real hue,
'Tis sad to learn that love is found
Alone above the stars with you.
