ToxE l.EcruRss.-The Eighth Lecture OF
the course was delivered on Tuesday evening
Nv Samuel Watcrbouse, Esq. Subject, "Pat-
,;otism." It becomes us, said the lecturer,
in this time of excitement and peril to look
well that our patriotism be truly country
loving and not degenerate into personal am
b,tion and eager aspiration for power and
Mace. Three divisions of his subject were
appropriately made by tho lecturer. What
,s Patriotism What are some of the duties
it imposes upon us? The intimate relation
which the common schools of New England
and the Free States, bear to the universal
patriotic clement SO generously developed.
Patriotism is confined to no country or
cline. II is nourishcd in northern SHOWS ;
il. growth is never parchcd by tropical heats.
1, is the true love of ones own country, aud
is ONLY real and rational when it calmly in
vcstigatcs the situation of that country and
acts regardless Of preccdcnts based upon
mere authority and power, 1t demands OF
ministrations but is compatible with, and
encouraged by fearless Independence of
thought and action.
Lastly, the patr,otism Of the North as cx-
hibicd in the present crisis Of our country,
and us opposed to the treason Of the South
rests on tho basis of the Intelligence OF the
people, which is mainly the want Of our
common schools.
No system like ours is fund in the South,
and slavery and treason brood where there
is the least light of education. LIT us then,
it was impressiycly said, cherish this system
which will save US, il anything can, in this,
our dark day Of trial.
Then the lecturer pointed out many Of our
duties as citizens, and called anew our atten-
ton to our obligations in relation to our
common schools. REPORTER.
