Running in Debt.

A large majority, probably five sixths OF the
farmers of this country owe part OF the purchase
money for their farms, which are mortgaged as
security for its payments This is deplored by
many as an unmitgated evil, and they are very
fluent in expatiating upon the evils which they
gelieve are inseperable from such state Of
things. They represent the debtor as under an
oppressive bondage that crippes his energies,
deters him from making needed improvements,
and compels him to toll for years, perhaps for
9 lifetime, for the benefit of the creditor who
is not unfrequently pictured as a grasping,
Unrelenting, soulless being Undoubtedly many
have encountered themselves too heavily and
others, lacking energy, are bearing as burden
what~they might make a stepping stone to com
petance. The complaints Of such have led some
to conclude that debt is an evil in which no
farmer should become involved.
But. although it might indeed be every way
easier and more agreeable for each to own his
farm free and unincumbered, not one in thou
sand can ever enter his happy experience with
out the previous purgatOry, as some term it, OF
years of debt The capital necessary to ac
ouire farm is seldom accumulated by the single
cxertions of the man with only his pair ofhands.
Acquiring sucl'a possession may be compared to
laying siege to fortified town. The assailants
can hardly hope to silence all the batteries and
effect the capture by one effort. They strive
first to make breach, to gain footing in some
important point, from which the after operations
can be conducted to finally reduce the whole
competence to conquer by his unaided efforts.
Tie must first effect Judgement upon the desired
premises, and then if he have skill and energy
he makes the farm assist in securing his posses
sion. Stock, farming utensils and appliances,
which would require all his small capital if
purchased at once, can be acquired gradually
while on the farm.
But there is another positive advantage in
debt under such circumstances which should not
be overlooked. 1t keeps continually before man
an obiec to be attained The recollection
that interest day is coming and that payment
mast be met is a stimulus that overcomes the
temptation to many an idle hour, calls out the
best energy, quickens ingenuity, and promotes
economy. A large plaster Of debt, well put on,
would be a capital application to many man
that is now good for very little, not feeling com
PEELED to work No doubt man might do as
much, when free from debt, but will he usually
The man settled upon place he is striving to
secure, is battling for his home, every dollar he
pays towards it, is a nail driven to secure its
possession to himself and family, and this, if any
thing, viii bring him out.-A,o. Agrdcuztuatst.

Merchant Vessels Converted into Men.of-
War.
The Baltimore Exchange observes that the
coasting steamers which were chartered by
the United States government for the Para.
guayan expedition, and have since been per.
manently added to the navy, have only been
metamo-phosed into the likeness, and not the
reality, of vessels-of-war. Built for purposes
Of commerce, their construction will prevent
them from ever being suitable for any other
purposes. They were, besides so old and
wretchediy out of repair when purchased by
the government, that they had TO be newly
planked and newly coppered, and new engines
and new boilers put into them, at an expense
of months of labor and large sums of money
Even thea they Were unfit for service. One
OF them broke down in a few days after leav.

In order to return home. Several o,hars had

virginia Military Institute.

We have received copy of the "RsgiSter q
the Officers and Cadets Of the Virginia Military
Destitute, harrington, July, 1852" The GRADUATES
of this year, CIV. II. CLARKE, of this city, at
their head,) number 90, the second class 43,
third class Is, fourth class Al. New appoint
ments for this year 80. OF these, six are from
North Carolina, three from Georgia, six from
Louisiana, three from Tennessee, three from
Alabama, ten from Maryland, five from Wash
inpton city, two from Missouri one from Dis
trict of Columbia, one from Texas enc from
Indiana the rest from Virginia.
There is also published in the Register list
of the graduates of the Institute since is or
panization, with the professions afterwards
pursued by each. The whole number is $50 !;
100 have since their graduation been employed
AS teachers and professors in schools and col
leges !; 40, civil engineers the rest, mostly pro-
fessional men and farmers.
From a history of the Institute, which ac-
companies the Register, it appears that an
arsenal, containing $1,000 stand of arms, is To-
Gated at the Institute, which was formerly
guarded by company of enlisted soldiers, at
an annual expense of about six thousand dol
lars. In 1889, this appropriation was trans
ferred to the support Of a company of cadets,
should also be placed under a course of in
siruction, upon the basis of the United States
Military Academy at West Point. Under this
system, the Institute has been in successful
operation for eighteen years. The cadets adj
mitted consist Of two classes, State Cadets, TO
whom the Institute supplies their board and
tuition, and in consideration thereof they are
eauircd to teach two years after graduation.
The nav cadet is entirely at his own expense.
The institution has always had as many pu-
nils az it's buildings would accommodate. The
Isterary Fund of the State contributes 81 500
per wear to the Institute, for the education oil
teachers, and the State has received tuition fees
from the pay cadets to the amount Of upwards
Of S5l.OO0 since its organization; which sum
is applied to the increase of the number of the
State cadets, to the enlargement of the accom-
modations of the Institute, and TO the support
Of part of the corps of Professors.
We have recently noticed the endowment OF
School of Agriculture in the Institute by a
munifcent donation of twenty thousand dol.
lara by p, ST. GEO. CoCKE, Esq, and of ten
thousand dollars by a gentleman of another
State.
