Literary Exercises at the Agricultural Col.

Ne. EDIToE:-Beevinr that the many readers
Of your well-flled columns would peruse with
pleasure and interest anything concerning the
welfare and prosperity of our excellent ACricul-
tural College, We have been prompted 10 Law
before them brief statement of the exercises
held at that institution on Friday evening last.
At an early hour the hall was filed with people
from the city, and the students of the College
The exercises were introduced with music, a
| trio, with instrumental accompaniment. Itwoud
have been quite acceptable, had the gentlemen
been more careful in their articulation. We arr
no musician, vet il does seem as if clear articuII
ton in music is most essential element.
The next in order was the reading of paper
gotten up by the students for the occasion. II
wanted not in variety and contained many excel
lent compositions.
We could write a lengthy article, setting fortf
the particular merits of each piece, but time anC
space viii not permit; hence We shall content
ourselves by mentioning the most prominent.
| The first production was piece entitled III,
Supper Club The writer gave description
of the organization OF this society, showing tina
it had its origin when pork and beans were no,
est at the College. Taken altogether, it was th,
| cbet.Fal0re of the occasion; and the applauS,
il met with, testified but too well of its oppreci
alton by the audience.
The piece entitled "Why Student" wa
written in rhyme. We must say il was hand
sOmey done, and reflected much credit upon it
author.
EARLY Rising was a Wen written piece, an,
contained many fine "hits," vet We think til,
writer expressed himself most too distinctly OF
one or two points. He probably is not used t,
the society of the ladies, hence il excussble OF
that account
"Our Life Voyage" was tolerable "RsiI
Drop" and MY Mothers Grave" were boil
well written pieces.
| The paper also contained several good conun
drums, among which we noted one that particu
larry pleased US: "Why are men ike dough
Because they are needed (kneaded) so much by
the women"
The exercises closed with music
| We listened throughout the entire evcnin!
| with much pleasure. The boys did well, al
though we understood they would have acquitte,
themselves with muck more credit had Their.
been more unity in getting up the entertainment
| We LEFT for the city that evening with the firm
belief that physical combined with nteIiectua
education, makes the man who Is of the most ser
vice TO the world. We left, inwardly thaukin:
that government which has erected an institution
that ia truly an ornament and honor to on
country.
We hope the boys viii give Ia Information
when another such exercise comes oil, as it vii
please Us exceedingly to be present, and not
the progress they are making, both phy>icl
AMI intellectually.
With respect, very truiy you.-,

Interesting DOcttnnanss.

The Detroit Tribune SAYS: William Thompson.
OF Fentouville, in this State, has the Journals o.
the Revolutionary Congress, the edition ordered
by Congress by resolution of March u, 1879.
which contains the whole proceedings from Sept.
>, l17i, to the adoption of the Constitution. lie
promises, from time TO time, n make public
through the Clinton Eep,eJEcas, portions of their
interesting contents. In a letter before Ms. he
notes one fact of interest. When the old srti-
cles Of confederation were submitted for the rati
cation Of the several States article four read As
follows.
"AETIcLE T. The better to secure and Der.
petuate mutual friendship and intercourse among
the people OF the different States in this Tn on.
the free inhabitants of each of those States. nan
pers, vagabOndS aud fugitiyes from Justice ex
cepted, shall be entitled to all the privileges nj
immunitos of free citizens in the several States
In the fourth volume, page 20 of the Journal.
where the members of Congress were giving the
ratification" the delegates from South Carolina
being called upon, moved the following amend.
ment in behalf of their State, viz: In the Article
4, between the words free Inhabitants insert
white passed in the negative-2 ayes. noes.
divided" They then voted by States. each
State had one vote. Two States were absent
that day. This evidence tends pointedlv to re-
fate the recent assumptions of Judge Tanev in
the bred Scott decision.

THAr's THE TAXA number of the natural
led citizens of New York, addressed letter 10
Hon. j. VI. Bolts, of Virginia, on the llih inst.
then in that city, asking his views on the letter
OF Secretary Cass, which declares that naturali-
zation here does not exempt a foreigner from
the claim of his government if he voluntarily
returns TO his native country. Mr.. Bolts, under
date of the 18th inst, answers in an elaborate
argument, taking grounds directly opposed TO
Secretary Cass, and summing up his argument
as follows:
my views on this question nav he thus
summed up; When one plants himself under
the wings of the American Eagle, which he is
pledged and sworn to support and defend: when
he enrolls his name upon the ample folds of the
Stars and Stripes of this great American Union.
he is free TO go wherever the winds and waves
may carry him; the eve of that Eagle watches
over his every step, that Flag waves proudly
over his head whether he is upon land or upon
water in palace or dungeon; and the power
that dares To interfere with his personal liberty
while he is engaged in lawful enterprise. and not
offending against the criminal or penal code of
that power, dishonors that Eagle and disgr,ces
that flag to which he appeals for his deliverance
if it does not afford him prompt relief and
redress

PHESONENoy.-We learn that very remark.
able phenomenon at sea is reported by Captain
Rogers of the bark Rolla, from Galveston. On
the ith nit, in the Gulf of Mexico, the vessel
passed through thick "scum" on the surface
of The water, which extended as far as the eve
could see from y. W 10 5. f.. The substance
resembled coal-tar, and gave out a smell pecul-
lar TO that article. The ocean also gave off
steam, as If some hot substance had been poured
into it. The phenomenon was attributed TO a
volcanic eruption at the bottom of the Gull. In
mediately afterwards the vessel experienced
violent hurricane.

The WATERS or THE GLOBE DECREASING
NJ. Vincent, French writer, maintains that n,
waters of the globe are gradually decreasing
founding his opinion on the fact that vast deserts
of sand, mixed up with the salt and remains OF
marine animals of which the surface Of the
globe is partly composed, were formerly inland
seas which have insensibly become dry. Accor.
ding to VI. Vincent, the Caspian, the Dead Sea.
&c, will become dry in their turn also. when
their beds will be sandy deserts; and the inland
seas, whether they have only one outlet. as the
Mediterranean, the Red Sea, the Baltic. &c. or
whether they have several, as the Gulf of Mex.
leo, the seas of Ochotsk, Of Japan, China, &c.
will at some future time cease 10 communicate
with the great basins of the ocean. They will
become inland seas, true Cassipians. and in dua
time viii become likewise dry. On all sides the
waters Of rivers are seen TO carry forward in
their course the soil of the continent. NJ. Vim.
cent maintains, therefore, that there is an actual
djninution of liquid matter.

The Upper Peninsula fdcocatc, a late organ
of simon-pure pro.slavery Democracy states
that lone of the latest Federal Apprentices to
one of the hes: offices in this State is a thorough
paced COwboy-onc who, in 1851, cOncOcted
Maria Monck Democratic frauds almost weekly
for leading black republican journal, abusing
the whole Democratic officials from the Governor
DOWN. ards, without the slightest regard to vc-
racity, while he himself protested to be a Dem
ocrat." The -idrocdfe proceeds to say, taat it
is high time that the honest, bard working
National Democrats, who adhere to their party
from principle and not for plumber, should cut
loose from these COWBOYS, If they wish to see
Michigan once more assume her proud position
rs prosperous Democratic State And it fur
Their threatens that it any more such nominations
are made for Governor as that Of Senator Stuart
the National Democrats Twill withdraw from the
Cowboy clique, organize National Democratic
Convention, appoint National Democratic

WATER FAILING IN LAKE ERIE.-Tbe Port

WATER FALLING N LANE ERIE.-The Por,
Clinton Democrat learns from fishermen, in tina,
vicinity, who have had occasion 10 notice the
rise and fall Of water in the Lake, that it has
fallen gradually since the first of April, averaging
three inches week, which would make the
water just two feet lower than during last sum-
mer. The fishermen make this note from their
pound stakes, which now show two feet more
timber above the water than they did previous
70 April first.

SIsTfe ~ : TIGHT PLACE-At y --, on,
saturday evening, faticued hy BIZ long Journey
a WAGNER, with his son, drove his team into q
good range, and determined to pass the Sabbath
ENJOYING season of worship with the good folks
Of the village
When the time for worship arrived, John was
set to watca the team, while the WAGNER went
in with the crowd. The preacher bad hardly
announced his subject before the oh man fen
sound asleep H. set against the partition in
the centre Of the body slip Just against him,
separated only 10y a very low partition. sat a
leshy lady, who seemed al absorbed IN the ser
mon. She struggled hard with her feelings, IN
I'll Enabled to control them longer, she burst out
with loud scream, and shouted at the top Of
her voice, rou-ing the oil man who, but half
awake, thrust biz arm around her waist, and cr-
81 very -oOtLin-ly:
:" Wo, Nance wo, Nance, Wo here John"
calling his son, "cGt the belly band and loose the

Of his discourse, and the meeting came prcma-

poor old man skullcd away, determined not TO

by remaining awake.

BENEFIT OF THE L.SGU .GFS.-We see il sta
ted that at Detroit recently, an OK was killed be-
cause he did not understand the French Ian
guage. The team, consisting of one English
and one French OK, drawing a heavy load and
driven ny a French driver, was crossing the
track when the express train made it, appear
ancc. The driver. in great excitement, imme-
diatelv ordered his oxen to cbUct," the
French word for "haw." The French OK M
derstood him, and turning off the track, saved
himself, but the English OK, never having stud
