GOVERNOR MoRGAN's ADDREss BEFoRE the
CONVENTION OF TUE You've MEMS CHRISTIAN
Assoc1ATIoNs.-On Friday, July Is, Governor
Morgan, of New York, by invitation, addressed
the National Convention of the Young Mems
Christian Associations at Troy, as follows:
"When on returning from the closing exer-
cises of the State Normal School, was Inform.
ed that committee from Troy were in waiting,
to invite me to visit your Convention, felt that
! it would be impossible for the to accept, and so
stated to one of your members But on reach
| ing the Executive Chamber, and meeting large
delegation Of intelligent young men, represent
! ing two hundred Associations with twenty thou
sand members, not composed of any one, but
/ all religious denominations, changed my pur-
| pose, and said yes; because felt that the inv-
taton would nOt have been extended unless it
was supposed that solely on account of my Off
cial relations my presence here might crafty
some young Christian heart of this vast assem-
! bly,. Believing this, | did not hesitate, and it
was due to you, young men-eminently DUE
that should do so. Not only representing every
Christian denomination, but coming as you
have from all parts of our country, and from
some portions of Her MajeSty's dominions, it
! Is fitting that we should meet on an occasion
of so much interest You have high aSI,ira.
lions and noble aims. Yours is a mission OF
peace and good will on earth. You have as
sociated yourselves together to enjoy the fruits
! of religion, and advance ChIiSt's kingdom on
earth; and you have chosen to do so in this so
cial manner for the furtherence of your ends,
and meeting with the approval of all candid
minds. The advantages of such gathering
cannot be estimated. The moral advantages OF
this Convention, and these social gatherings,
will exert powerful influence on society and the
world. Think you crime would be SO frequent
If young men were early trained and cared for
and led into the society of your associations
Think you the Executive of u single state would
have been called upon to consider one hundred
and Sixty-nine applications for pardons, on the
occasion of single visit 10 one prison, if these
unfortunate men had been taken by the hand
and early led to one Of these associations p
Never never! There is every possible reward
for all the etfHrts, all the labor, all the expend
ture of time and money, these associations car
bestow in ChriStianizing young men in that ten
der period of Ire between the ages of fourteen
and twenty four thank you, Mr. PreSiden
and gentlemen, FIR the opportunity you have
afforded me of being present to night. Go on
Finish what you have began, and give God tn,
glory!

One OF RUFUS CuoArEs SENrENcEs-'The
following is the opening passage of Rufus
Chate's Fourth Of July Grafton, delivered in
1853:
at is we'll that in our year, so busy, SO secu-
lar, so diScordant, there comes one day when
the word is, and when the emotion is, our
country, our whole country, and nothing bat
our country 1t is we'll that aw-ou: only SOW
ereign on earth duty, not less the daughter Of
Col, not less within her sphere Supreme-cuS-
tom not old alone, but honored and useful -
memories, our hearts, have set time in which
-scythe, loom and anvil stilled, shops shut,
wharveS silent, the hag-our flag unrcnt-the
flag ct our glory and COMMUNICATION waving
on mast head, steepe and highland, We may
come together and walk hand in hand, Thought
full, admiring, through these galleries Of civil
greatness; when may own together the spell
of one hour of our history upon us all; when
faults may be forgotten, kndncsses revived,
virtues remembered aud Sketchud Unbalanced;
when the arrogance of reform, the excuses OF
reform, the StuEes of parties, the rivalries of
regions, shall give place to a wider, wal mrr and
juNter sentiment; when turning from the cor
nerS and dark places of uFrusiveneSS if such
the candle lighted by nalignity, or envy, or cen.
seriousness, or truth has revealed anywhere;
when turning from these, we may go up to the
serene and secret mountain top and there pause,
and there unite III the TevereHt exclamation, and
in the eXultant prayer, How beautiful Mt last
are thy tabcrnacleS What people at last is
like unto thee! Peace be within thy palaces
and joy within thy gates The high places are
thine, and there shalt thou stand proudly and
innocenty, and securely"

PROVIDED Hungary can obtain the constitu-
tional gu grantees she requires from Russia, and
is refused them by Austria, it is thought to be
quite on the cards that the crown OF ST Stephen
may be offered to the Car. At all events, 1t
is not improbable that the alternative will be
put before the government of Austria, and that
the good Offices of England will be sought by
the national party, for the purpose of urging on
the stubborn young Kaiser the urgency of
compliance with the Magyar ConstitutionaIists.

a correspondent of the Boston Courier relates
the following anecdote of Webster:
"Ehc pretty and impotcnt scurility of which
Mr.. Summers Grafton has been made the ucca-
sion in one newspaper, reminds me of letter
which Mr.. Webster wrote after continued prov
ocation, to the editor of newspaper, which re-
fcrred to his private affairs, aud especially to his
not paying his debts. He said substantially
ut Is true that have not always paid tiny debts
punctualy, and that owe money. One cause
of thiSis, that have not pressed those who owe
me for payments As an instance of this, en-
close your fathers note, made to me thirty wears
ago, for money lent him to educate his BOYS"

ONE of the most dangerous counterfeit notes
that we have seen, is So lately put in cir
cu!ation, purporing to be the issue of the Phil
adelphia Bank, New Jersey. 1t is an altered
note; the vignette, men cutting trees, in the
centre; right end, men gathering corn; left end,
two men and boy shearing sheep; the word
Five" printed in red across the face of the note
and the name of the bank on the upper part of
the note. 1t is unlike the genuine, and is well
calcuated to deceive.

AT Milwaukee the citizens have been out
ragged by the impunity with which animals o.
all grades have been allowed to roam and depre
date. Recently pubIce meeting was held in
relation to the matter, and sundry resolutions
were adopted requesting the town council to
nbate the nuisance which are applicable to this
locality. We extract one Of them:
Res0lrcd, That no argument can be brought
against the action requested, that cannot be
brought in favor OF stealing and piracy; for the
man who will allow his cows aud hogs to forage
upon his neghhors' trees and SIN ubs, is worse
than the thief who robs our houses of that
which money will readily replace.

IT is said that it is the intention of the Penn
sylvania Central Railroad to make the sleeping
cars free for first class passengers instead of,
as now, charging fifty cents extra for berth
If this is true, no doubt our other roads will do
the same. We urged upon the Baltimore road,
last winter, the propriety Of their being the
first to take this step. But in this, as in many
other things these days, we see that they have
deferred to tue Penna. road Such bids for the
public patronage are legitimate enough, and the
more we see of them, the more marked will be
the attention of the public carriers to passen-
gers comforts and the more active their ener-
gies for achieving perfect system of railroad
management.

AMONG the Commencement Speeches delivered

AMoxG the commencement speeches delivered
at Hamilton College, N. Y, published in the
Utica Herald, we notice readable outline of
one by young Mr.. Charles A. Hawley, who
pronounced the valedictory before the Phoenix
Society. His theme was the Influence of Phil
osophy upon the Human Race. He showed
that Philosophy was essentially Of Grecan birth
The Poets were the first Philosophers; after
wards came the Priests, and finally Statesmen.
He spoke OF the degrading influence of the Ath-
enian Philosophy while it gave acuteness to
the intellect, it led it into labyrinths Of error
But the world would not let it die 1t had ben
Gifted Art in ages past; its influences yet lived
in the chisels of Hosmer and P, wers The
speaker contrasted the Ancient with Modern
Philosophy-the Philosophy Of Plato with the
Philosophy of Bacon. The one said man was
made for Philosophy; the other said Philosophy
was made for man. The Ancient developed
artistic taste; the Modern, useful Inventions
Here is beautiful passage:
1.-THE new Philosophy built houses; the old built
air castles She new gave men fewer beautiful
visions, but more of the comforts Of life. Phil
Osophy cast off her fine spun theories, and seiz-
ed the hammer of the artisan. She entered the
workshop Of Watt, and the steam engine became
mans efficient servant; sat in the study of jeff
erson, and the Declaration made the heart of
Patriotism leap for joy; awakened the genius
of FmltOn, and steamships breast the Hudson,
and bridge the widest ocean the sails Of mcr-
chantmen whiten every sea mixed the chemi-
calls for Daguerre, and the sun prints pictures
for the people; watched and waited in the lab
ratory until Morse had annihilated space; stirred
the synpathies of womans nature, and the cold
hearted Hypatia of Ancient Philosophy, inspired
by hOlier enthusiasm and endowed with Il
nobler character, cheers the bedside of suffering
in the angel presence of Florence Nightingale.
