THE nEoEAsE or EMINENT AMERICAN STATES
MEN.-In recording tho death Of ex Secretary
Marcy, tho Philadelphia Times remarks.
II seems MS il death had found banquet among
our master spirits in the last decade. Almost
all the great and illustrious men who came into
public l!fe during tho first twenty five years Of
the present century have been snatched away
within that time. The list which memory calls
at tho moment is formidable in numbers, and the
persons whose names are upon it were conspicu-
ous for vast and varied ability. First in point
Of time, is that of John Quincy Adams. who died
in 1917 then follows those of Kent, Polk, Tay-
lor, Calhoun, Clay. Moduilie, Story, Webster,
King. Woodbury. Sergeant. Berrien. Clayton
Hill Burgess Butler, Chocves, and Marcy
What immense powers. what political and local
research, whit oratorical skill and diplomatic
eruditon, what wise foresight and wonderful ex-
perence have been lost by their deaths to the ma
ion, When will il, if ever, be restored in the
persons aud minds of others'

A SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY. BY tho report of
the proceedings of the Convention of the Epis
capa Ghui eh, we see TINT the proposition Of
President Polk to establish Southern Univer-
sity, has been fully approved. 1t is probable
that steps will be speedily taken TO carry this
important project into practical execution.
There is man whose mind grasps tho actu
al condition of the country, and the attit ude in
which the South stands 10 the rest Of the world,
hut must confess il TO be tho duty Of every true
Southern nun to educate his children within tho
Southern States. SO tiuotured arc most Of the
schools, which have acquired any considerable
reputation at tho North. with tho fannticism of
Abotionism. that it s in tho highest degree un-
wise to expose the young men of the South to
their unholy influence. Yale, and Harvard, and
Brown, and the Northern seats Of learning. which
in days past we were proud to mention rs living
fountains of knowledge, whose waters benutiicd
and ferilized tho land. begin like the schools OF
the middle ages, to mnge new theological dog
mus with secular learning, aud to teach an abb
horrencc of sooial relation which prevails in an
important section Of our country. They are
sowing seeds of mental death and national strife
instead of kindling holy patriotism which shall
impel generous youth to great deeds and pure
saorifces for their country .-Wnsh States.
