FIT FOR A LAwYER.-A lady walked in.
to lawyers office lately, when the fol.
lowing conversation took place: esquire,
l called to see if you would like to take
this boy and make lawyer of him ~
''The boy appears rather young, madam
How old is he ?" "Seven years, sir."-
HE is too young, decidedly too young
Have you no other bOys?" 20, yes, sir,
l have several but We have concluded
to make farmers Of the othars told my
man l thought this little felIer would
make first rate lawyer, and so I called
to see if you would take him." mo,
madam, he is too young yet to commence
the study of the profession. But why
do you think this boy so much better cal.
culated for a lawyer than your other
sOnss" "Why, you see sir, he is just
seven years old to-day; when he was only
five, he'd lie like oil nature but when he
got to DO six, he was sassy and impudent
as any creature could be; and now he'll
steal everything he can lay his hands on.

Shook the earth still down upon him;
And he lies beneath his grave stone,

WAYNE FEMALE COLLEGF.

The Spring. session of this Institution, located
IN Goldsboro,' N c., viii on Thursday
the 9th of January, 1859. Pupils viii be received
at any period and charged only from the time of
they all be present at the opening of the session.
After admission, no deduction viii be made for
absence, except in cases of protracted sickness.
The Fall session, which will close on the 23rd
inst, has been unusually pleasant and successful.
With grateful a~cknowled gements for past success.
We again Invite attention to Wayne Female Col
lege. and offer to lead the lovely daughters of our
happy land to the pure fountains of virtue and
knowledge.
Our situation is peculiarly adapted to suit the
eastern portions of North Carolina, Virginia, and
South Carolina. Those who send their daughters
and wards into the middle and western sections Of
the State to be educated, expose them t. danger.
For after they have passed the winter and spring
in these sections, then for them to remove to the
eastern counties to spend their vacation in June
and July, is to say the least, very hazardous to
their health. Few constitutions can sustain the
sudden transition without injury. But Goldsboro'
is situated just near the dividing line, having the
low country on the east and the hill country on
the west; and cur pupils from the seaboard can
safely visit theirhomes at any season of the year,
and not be in such danger from too great change
of climate. Let the people Of Eastern Carolina
continue to sustain their own cherished Institul
ton.
Board, per session of twentyFone weeks, inclu,

$50. Tuition in the College course, $40, Tuition

The North Carolina Conference.

This body was still in session, in Newbern,
at orr latest advices on Friday morning
last. 1T was thought probable it would adj
journ that evening. One of the chief matters
OCCUPYING the attention of the Conference was
the Book Depository" the establishment of
which was finally agreed upon, and Raleigh
selected for its location.
Charges of immortality were preferred by
DR.. Carter against DIR. Deems, and finally
withdrawn by the charger, after considerable
time spent thereon, and a decision of Bishop
Kavanaugh adverse to their legality-and
DR.. Deems character passed by "unani-
nous rising vote" says our informant. Per-
haps DR.. Carter was not present, or did not
choose to vote. We did not hear, as to that.
We hope this is the last we shall hear of this
long protracted and unfortunate, not to say
dlsgraceful elimination of ministerial breth-
rem in the North Carolina Conference. We
take no sides in the matter, but our respect
for the christian church and christian minis
try induce US to say this much.
Since the above was in type, we learn the
Conference adjourned late on Friday night,
after a laborious session of ten DAYS. A
number Of the Ministers spent the Sabbath
IN this city. Among them was Bishop Kav-
anaugh, who preached twice to ~oyerfowing
congregations !; establishing a reputation
OF the highest order, for being a faith
full, empassioned and eloquent pulpit laborer.
We have rarely if ever listened to a preacher
with whom we were more delighted. And
this is the sentiment Of all whom we have
heard speak of these efforts.
