GOV. WIsE's SPEECH.

u We make the following extracts from
4oy. Wise's speech to the medical students
Who lately deserted the Universities Of
he North to takeup their abode in Rich I
nond, Va, where they are to be taught
Southern science" Let all read and
lraw their own conclusions. aa-eg
81 have no doubt that here, in Rich
mond, science can be taught as we'll as it
is taught in Philadelphia. [Applause.
Let us have it. Let Us have science OF
our own; let us have manufactures of our
own; let us have trade Of our own; let as
have ships Of our own; let us always be
and self-dependent, and then
you will not have other people grow SO
great uponEo wealth that then under
take to play Il ie part of petty Provi-
denee for God Almighty himself. [ Ap'
plause. I They will attend their own
business, md iet your affairs alone: And
if they cannot mind their own business,
if they cannot discontinue their vicious
intermeddling with us, we will make
them do.it. Cheers.] five cannotdo
this by peaceful and self-reliant means,
why, as you are aware, gentlemen, little
bloodlestiag, little phlebotomy, will re-
duce the fever daughter, and ! tell you
now, thought do not express it mes
sage to the Legislature Of Virginia, for it
is not my part to do so--that if blood
must flow; if the toesin of war must be
sounded; If we must buckle on our ar
NOR; if red battle will stamp its foot, this
nationalone shall not feel the shock.
The real groundwork of discussion in
this country; the real--the real root OF
the disease is the foreign influences Of
Great Britain. Your external com
lnerce; four exports and imports; the
constant intercourse between New Eng
land and Old England, all beget sympa-
|thy between Old and Ne,c England
stronger, I sometimes fear, than the
Esympathy which New England feels
for us; and whenever New England
ianaticism joins with Gid English
intolerance in an effort to dissolve
this Union-any effort like that OF
which John Brown was the instrument
New England and Old England CON-
bined shall not avail to drive me from
the Union. Mol !, With Gods help we
will drive all the disunionists together
back into Canada. Let them join Can
ada. Let the compact of fanaticisn1 and
intolerance be confined to British soil
AS for me, Imeanto stay here. Laugh
ter aud applause. Imean tostay here,
saw, with one exception. Ii invasion
shall ever again cross the Northern bor-
der Of Virginia, and I can get one hun
I6red men, aye, ,'or ten men, to follow me

bern people are the men OF purpose, 4
the Southern people are the men 81 Will

then, rather than let this Union be dis
solved, they will drive into Canada every
