The basis of the plan Of the Universe
ty Of the South is broad and catholic
as il should be for an institution which,
though under the control of one demon,
ination Of Christians, yet essays, by the
help Of all good men, Of whatever creed,
to supply great, a vast need Of this
country III centre ofintclcctual motive
power and Of learning, in its trucst and
highest sense, whose influences are to
be felt hy our entire population in every
division and subdivision Of society, and
IN every department of industry.
Its grundcSt result, in our view, (al-
belt its effects will be greatly beneficial
to the whole Anglo.SaXon racc,) will be
to elevate, TO their proper place Of dig
uity and intellectual power, the people
Of the Save States, and to demonstrate
to the world that the allegation of our
Frcesoil enemies, that Slavery is deadly
nightshadc to Literary and Industrial
Progress, is, "a lie, Il. fiction, and Il
sham"
That il wiIIpro,!ucc this effect, can
not be questioned, ifthe programme Of
its founders is honestly executed. 10
prove this, let us, as briefly as may be,
codeavorto convey anidca of what will
b" attempted.
IA the first place, Il committee, consis-
tinS of some of the first and best cuti
waited minds Of the country, was raised
by the promoters of this enterprise
whose business it was made, to establish
u municipal and disciplinary plan Of
management, rs well as Il University
system, proper, on the most comprc-
iensivc idcas-a plan and system to be
erected out 0fthc materials and expert
cnce furnished, not only by the foremost
academic institutions of this country,
but those of Great Britain, France,
Prussia, Germany and the rest of conti-
mental Europe. BY means ofthc State
Department at Washington, they were
put in communication with those great
hoary institutions Of Europe, over which
there's to any extent, governmental
control; whilcby other, though not less
Influential modes, they reached the
heads Of institutions abroad, o. the
highest character. The fundamental
lsws, tho modes of discipline, the chan
ycs-in short, the disciplinary and scho-
lastic history and eXperience-ofeach of
these, were ali thoroughly studied, sif-
ted and deliberatcd upon by the commit
fee; and from this vast aggregate of
rare and valuable materials, Il general
plan was involved, no feature Of which
i INFESTED by a sufficient experience,
and yet asa whole, presenting a simme-
try and efficiency never before united in
one institution, and surprising, in its
breadth and beauty of design, and in
strength for practical working, even
the mighty and venerable educational
structures Of Europe.
And this colossal plan is assured, in
permpnency, to the country, and cspec-
tally to the South by two guarantees:
first, most liberal, perpetual charter
from the State of Tennessee-the sec
ond, the use, in perpetuity, of the ma
ehinery Of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, for the preservation and trans
mission OF the corporate powers and
privileges. rI.
But, along with these most important
plans, essentially esoteric in their ma
ture and operations, II was necessaryto

I'm standing on the stormy shore
OF life's uncertain sea,
And pensive, list the oceans roar,
That bears me far from thee!
But ere Iquit the brightest spot
That ever bloomed for me,

And midst the crowd that eager stand
To watch the rising tide,
/ Long to grasp thy friendly hand,
And lingcr by thy side.

The billows chafc and foam---
And must launch my little bout,
And seek another home.
Oh who can tell the tide of woe
That makes the bosom swell,
When we must bid the hearts we know.
Pcrhaps-- II last farewell
And while | turn with fearful eye,
From scenes so dear TO me;
rend the strongest sweetest tie,
When forced to part with thee;
For on my heart thy spirits ray

Nor thnc itsc'f impair,
Then whcr Tn gone, and friends forget
A0d foes my actions biaiic,
Oh. weep for mr. one kind rcgrct.
oh still remain the same.
For though I've used the venon,id DIRT,

Thy gentle hand I'll hold no more
Yet, still through all my future life,

With feelings it were vain TO show,

The most Important Discovery sin
Vaccination.


 Vaccination.
 DR. HANsoN's VEGETABLE CHEMICAL POWDERS will break up colds at once, without s~eatlhs' dieting, interruption of business, or the use of hot Stimulating and burning compounds, herb teas' candies, balsams or any other disagreeable, incon- venient and nauseating doses they do not cause the least unpleasant symptoms-even if taken in large doses. they create only thirst, which be, ing allayed with water, an agreeable warmth and moisture at the surface is soon experienced When taken as directed, they break up the cold and ar. rest its efects and the only operation perceived is mysterious and unfavorable disappearance of all symptoms, as feverishness, chills, lameness. darting pains, dull heavy pains, tlghtness of the chest, hoarseness, cough sore throat, croup, ca tsrrh, headache, &c.
 The Vegetable Chemical Pooders arc to colds what Vaccination is against Small Pox and Qninine for Ague. They are specific remedy tor the preven- tion and cure of specific disease. And by break ing colds with them the system is not weakened and deranged and rendered more subject to re- peated attacks, but is rather strengthened and fortified against them. They arrest croup instant ly and permanently, and by their timely use coughs, catarrh, bronchitis, levers, rheumatism, sore throats consumption, and all diseases prima- riy excited by colds, can be baniSled from among the people.
