The State University.

BLOOMINGTON, ND, Aug. sth 1857.
Editor Of the Journal:
The twenty. eight annual commencement
of the State University, located at this place,
was held last week. 1t was opened on Sun
day by the Baccalaureate sermon of the Pre-
sident to the Graduating Class, and Monday
AID Tuesday were devoted to addresses be-
fore the various literary societies connected
with the University, with the meetings of the
Alumni, and by public and private levees.
Wednesday, forenoon and afternoon, was de-
voted to the orations of the Graduating Class,
" hich is the largest that has ever gaduated
in this State, numbering eighteen, and in
point of ability. it, perhaps, has no equal.
This Anniversary was more largely atten-
ded by the distinguished men of the State
than any p: evious one, thus giving evidence
of the increasing interest which our public
men have for its welfare. Among the visitors
noticed Gov. Willard, Hon. K. w. Thomp
son, John L. Robinson, Judge Bryant, Pre-
sident Montford of Ohio, Prof. Lynch, and
many other distinguished professional and
literary men. The University never was in
more prosperous condition, and there are
many reasons why it should continue to be
tie first collegiate institution in the State. 1t
is under the guardianship of the State, and
she has made it the browning branch of its
educational system, it has an energetic Pre-
sident and an able and faithful corps of Pro-
fessors, it has the most elegant and commo-
dious college buildings in the State. While it
teaches strict moral and religious principles,
it is free from sectarianism and bigotry, its
standard of scholarship is equal to any in the
West, and its location is healthy, surrounded
by high hills and pure air, and in a refined
and moral community; these advantages en-
sure to it future of continued prosperity and
usefulness. 1t certainly is entitled to the at
tention and liberal support of parents and
public men of Southern Indiana.
The society of the Alumni have elected as
the Orator for 1858, Hon. James s. Rollins Of
Missouri, the late candidate for Governor,
and Hon. Hugh T. Reid of Iowa as Alternate.
TIE next session Of the University opens on
the oath Of September.

RAILROAD WEST OF MOUNT CARMEL.

RAILROAD WEST OF MOUNT CARMEL.
The Register says that the surveying
party on the Alton, Mount Carmel and
New Albany Railroad, had just returned
from a survey and location of the road
lest of Mount Carmel through the whole
sngth of Wayne county and into Jeifer-
son, to complete the location Of the road
from the West with that portion Of the
ROAD graded from Mount Carmel through
Wabash and Edwards counties. The
party had made a very favorable location
almost on a straight line. and with a
very easy grade. The Register says:
The first beginning to work in earnest on
this line of Railroad was made on the 18th OF
Junstsss by ploughing and seraping in the
openH fsie south west of Fairfield which
:wo was begun by parties who have en-
eago6to grade ten miles of the road. and who
intend to- progress as steadily as practicable
alter harvest is over.
This is the road with which we are to
connect by road from Princeton to
Mount Carmel. 1t appears they are ac-
lively engaged in extending the old grade
West, and will soon have it completed
through three or four of the richest coun-
ties of East Illinois. This extension
makes it the more important for Evans
vile to open the road from Princeton to
Mount Carmel.

Cr Dickens. Brooke. Thackerav

CT Dickens, Brooke, Thackeray,
Shirley and other eminent authors have
recently been giving dramatic readings
for benevolent purpose. Queen Vic
toria desired to hear them, and invited
them to appear at Windsor Castle. The
gentlemen refused to obey the summons
unless they had the assurance that their
social position as respectable literary
men would be officially recognized. They
declined to appear as histrionics to gra-
tify the curiosity Of the Queen; but were
willing to attend the Queen for an even
ing as literary gentlemen, and contri.
butte their efforts for her pleasure and
amusement; the Queen refused to &C.
cede and they declined the visit. The
spirit evinced by the gentlemen is ap-
p.auded as being Is creditable to them,
as the unwillingness to comply with the
request. was discreditable to the Court.

County Republican says, that from the

rested in that county, it appears that
the gang of counterfeiters is one of the
most extensive in the West, and has
been in existence for many years. The
letters will lead to the detection and ar
rest Of numerous other persons in other

says the parties are not respectable citi-

@ 1t appears from the statistics of
the eastern insane asylums that the pro-
portion of lunatics among farmers and
in employments which give small intel
lectual excitement and activity is much
larger than in in those professions which
require the highest tension Of the men,
tai powers. The proportion of lunatics
in the agricultural districts is one third
greater than in the commercial and man
ufacturing communities, both in this
country and in England. The inference
drawn from the facts is, that the mind
rusts out oftener than it wears out. In
the Utica Asylum, out Of 247 inmates
"a were farmers and farm laborers; and
there were only two merchants, three
doctors, five lawyers, and one editor.
