IMMATURIrY OF Our Young MEN.-Presi
dent Felton,, of Harvard University, in his
inaugural address, made use of the following
suggestive language:
Our young American needs more than Eu-
ropean youth, the training that shall give
him composure and self command-that shall
give him the mastery of his faculties, and the
habit of steady action. He is citizen of n
vast republic, wherein every man has his ca
reer to open, his fortune to make, his success
to achieve He feels, every moment, the
cial or party pressure, and the weight of in
dividual responsibility, These very circum
stances make the period in which we live one
which tempts the young man into premature
activity. lie is allured into the busy scene
when his faculties are but half unfolded; his
principles are as yet uncertain; his views
vague, his hopes gorgeous as the rainbow,
and perhaps as feeting and unsubstantial -
His tastes Uniformed, and his moral being
crude as the unripe fruit Of every summer
solid character is not the growth of day
the intellectual faculties are not matured
without long and vigorous culture. To refine
the taste is a laborious process-to fortfy the
reasoning power with its appropriate discip-
line, is an arduous undertaking. To store
the mind with sound and solid learning, is a
a work of long and studous years. 1t is the
business of the higher education to check this
fearful impatience, this crude and eager haste
to drink the cup of life-to exhaust the in
toxicating draught of ambition.

The New York organ Of The abolltionists, re-
ports exiensivs preparations on foot by the
New England and New York abolitionis,s, to
celebrate the coming month, their victory over
the Union and to push on the abolition col
umns. The downfall OF The Republic is merely
a step in their career. The New York Er-
press, (Ameriean) makes the following refer
ence to their movements:
l. must not be supposed, however, that the
exer;ions OF these pestilent fanatics are TO
cease with the downfall OF the Republic, SIM
ply. They have other ends in view. Oae OF
these is the stirring up Of serviie insurreetions
In the South, and the conversion OF the cotton
States in,o another San Domingo. They do
not indeed avow this internal purpose In 80
many words-but their programme, in sub
stance and in spirit, eontenplstes nothing else.
According TO their printed circular, now before

Here. TOO. we have been Obliged to 20 outside
the limits Of the register. Il viii, at first
strike the reader as absurd to allow 2Sl 900
men a. the available strength Of a nominal
612,O00, Wben over 100000 are allowed but
261,100. This apparent discrepancy arises al
together from two stubborn facts: In the first
place, the militia OF any State is not obliged to
leave t. II the second place, the northern
militia is al outside Of the seat OF war, while
that Of the South is within g.; 50 that, in re-
slity, allowing 26I 100 az the movable army
from the North, s going to the last extent Of
probability, while putting The turn Of strength

making it as low as it could be made Forts.
srsensis and barracks have been captured 10
every Southern State, aud, IL they are retakeH,
soldiers must march to them, as matters OF
this kind cannot be done BY proxy. The fed
eral trooper, then, must travel-the southern
one is on the spot.
It is easier to get SO, 900 men together for =
fed daV at home than 10000 10 20 hundreds
of miles The ambulance and provisions
which the North should procure for $4,000
men in the coming war, would serve 150, 900 Of
the Confeisrstss- Besides the South Caro-
linian army, which we quote as % 600 ayail-
able, has already force Of that number an-
der arms; therefore our proportion OF her QUO
tstion to servicsabie is not overdrswn. T. is
natural TO suppose thst Georgia, Mississippi,
Alabama and the rest could DO as well as
South Carolina. But then, observes the
srguer, why not the Northern S atps have az
many available men, in proportion2 For three
good reasons; Granting that they could raise
$4,000, instead Of 25l 90, and that al who
-Vvefa-EseHfred % do 20 would willingly volun-
tser, The force kept at home, from motives Of
policy, custom and security, should not be less
than $1,000, 80 that the available would be
only 150,000. Secondly. Neither North nor
South, nor any nation other than France, Rus-
sa and Austria could send on a long Journey
261 900 men, and feed and supply it on the
road and Mr. Lincoln being pledged "not to
molsst private property" or forcibly take pro-
visions from ths people in The invaded States,
his Government could do g less than any
other power. Thirdly. The North can never
raise 26l 900 for outside fighting Were she
attacked al home, # Is more likely, ~ al mill
tary men viii see, that three millions could Be
brought into the field, than that 26l 600 could
be accumulated for journey.
