South, which were er cdthedrd by this
southern rights organ, for the purpose of
substantiating the orthodoxy of Judge
Douglas, the New York Tribune said:
aft South Carolina should object to
candidate for President who plants himself
upon that platform, she must be fastidious
indeed"
Such then, was the opinion entertained
of Judge Douglas in November 1858, by
Hon. Roger A. Pryor, the editor of She
Richmond South, aud justly styled, since
the death of the elder Richie, the NaPo-
leon of southern journalism.
Mr.. Pryor went even farther, and amalga-
mated the !SoutA:.with the Washington States,
and became the sole editor of that strong
Douglas organ, until about three months
previous to his election TO Congress from
the Petersburg district. Nr. Pryor, up to
the nomination of John G. Breckenridge
for the Presidency, was regarded us the
warm adhercnt of Judge Douglas, having
never publicly recOntcd the sound ortho-
dox position he had assigned the distin-
guished Illinoisian in his article of No
vcmhcr, 1858, containing the eleven cele-
brated articles of democratic faith.
To-day we find Mr.: Pryor the supporter
of John G. Breckenridge for the Presidency.

From the Atlanta (Gn) Confedcracy, July oO.l
In the month of March, 1858, Roger a.
Pryor issued the first number of the Rich
mond South. From Mr. Pryor's high no
Sltlon, socially and politically, and from
his recognized ability both as a speaker
and writer, and from his known devotion
to the rights of his native section, the

eminence and proud leadership in Amcri-

After the illinois Senatorial contest was
decided, and after the rejection of Kansas
under the Lecompton constitution. and
after the decision of the Supreme Court in
the case OF bred Scott, Mr.. Pryor, in the
early part of November, 1858, took the
strongest possible positions through the
columns of the South, why Judge Douglas
should DO the nominee of the Democratic
party in 1860 for the Presidency. Mr.
Pryor gave eleven reasons, as follws.

that his election will dissolve the Union,

The Blind.

WE have received little pamphlet con-
tanning the proceedings of recent Re-
union of the officers and pupils of the In
stitution for the Blind, at Columbus, Ohio,
the latter of whom were scattered far and
wide over the country. pursuing the du-
ties for which they were qualified by the
Institution, but who gathered together on
this occasion, and had u pleasant and mu-
tually instructive aud agreeable Reunion.
Many of the officers and pupils delivered
addresses, to one of which Mr.. Horace D.
Collins, the blind musician of this city,
responded as follows:
Fellow graduates, you who have tried,
are aware of the difficulties under which
we labor There is prejudice against
employing the blind as instructors OF the
seeing. 1t is supposed that though we
may be able to teach the blind, we can
not be expected to teach those who see.
True, this is exactly the reverse of the
fact, but this is the opinion in almost eve
~ community, and will continue to be I'M
til we demonstrate the contrary. This
prejudice, this lack of confidence i'll us, is
such that we must not only be prepared TO
do"what we undertake as well, but better,
if possible, than others, or We shall not
overcome it.
What then shall we be dishcnrteend?
shall we complain By no means. Let
us prepare ourselves for our work. Let
us master the science of music, learn every
thing about its notation, the terms employ
ed,-become acquainted with the best in
StrWction books, and be posted in every i'm
provement in the art of teaching.
In regard to Instruments, become masters
of the organ; nothing will do so much to
give one a position in society, and a good
Introduction to business rs the ability to
play the organ we'll. If you wish to sue
coed we'll, secure the place of an organist
in good congregation, and the way is
open.
Scorn every thing like playing .iigs or
negro airs, for promiscuous crowds, or in
the streets or saloons. Let no one ever
degrade himself, or disgrace the lnsttu-
ton by becoming buffoon or n street
fiddler. III regard to concerts, or any pub
lie performances, it is better by far to be q
regular teacher, than to attempt any thing
Ofthat kind unless one is eminently gifted.
Finally, if any expect to succeed as
teachers, they must be persons of good
manners and correct habits, they must be
worthy of confidence and esteem, or they
cannot maintain n respectable standing III

one of the highest uses of music is tho

of the vessel. Like Niagara, it is not so
large as their Imagination had pictured
But as they survey its gigantic proper
lions, as they go from one deck to anoth
or, from cabin to saloon, and through in
terminable labyrinths of stairways and

slant effort of the mind is required to re-
member that you are in ship floating on
the water and not in a vast hotel or some
strange and extensive building ON the

such symmetry and beauty of proportion
could have been combined with such i'm
mensity of bulk 1t is this feature of the
