Riots of the Land.

The riot in New York, of which very
meager details had reached us at the
time of our last issue, proved a very for
midable, disgraceful, brutal affair, result
ing not only in the destruction of many
buildings, the great loss of other valuable
property, but also in the death of not a
few citizens, including policemen, soldiers,
negroes and others, and was finally over
powered only by strong military forces,
called out for the emergency. In Boston
also, a similar demonstration was init
ated, arising from the draft, but was
promptly quelIed at the outset.
The principal objection urged 10 the
conscription is the $500 exemption clause,
which, it seems, gives an advantage TO
the rich over poor man. But no objec-
tionable feature in the conscript law can
IN The least degree justify armed resist
ance to its enforcement. All mob vio-
lence or demonstration of resistance, aris-
ing from such source or from any other,
should be promptly met and put down at
once with the strong military arm, if less
summary means prove unavailing. five
have government, although at present
it be miserably fanatical and imbecile, it
must be sustained, law and order must
prevail, or we all sink together into anar-
chy and chaotic confusion. We truly
hope for the credit of our State, when the
draft shall take place in our midst, Michi-
gan, that has borne so noble, so exalted
part in the present national but unfor-
tunate contest, will not be disgraced and
Inundated by any scenes of violence or
mob resistance to its enforcement.

A College in Ottawa County.

We were grati6ed at the demonstration
made at Grand Rapids, few weeks since,
relative to the establishment of college
in that city. But that qualification is
greatly enhanced at the prospect of an
immediate endowment of an institution
Of that character in Old Ottawa.
The Holland Academy has, for years,
been widely and favorably. known as an
institution of the highest order of acade-
mics, and the young men who have enter
ed college, after thorough course in this
primary school, have proved alright and
shining lights" in their higher course of
study, and, having completed that, they
now take rank with our first men of tai
emf, noted for their eloquence and peculiar
fitness rs divines-the great majority of
those having received their primary in
structlon In the Holland Academy choos-
ing the ministry as profession-a strong
proof of the high moral tone of the insti-
tuition. We trust the college, when once
fairly in working order, will prove as pop
ular and efficient an institution of its
kind as the academy has in its sphere of
action. Then it will be a just source of
pride to us as citizens, and the public
good that may be accomplished by its in
fluence will be incalculable.

JULY 10, o O'CLOCK, L. M.
Met pursuant to adjournment. Henry
Griffin in the Chair as before.
Rev. L. M. S. Smith, Chairman of the
Committee on Resolutions, submitted the
following report in writing:
Inasmuch as it has pleased the Great
Disposer Of events, to remove from us
and our army, brave and noble officer,
in the person of Major Noah H. Ferry,
we feel that it becomes us, creatures and
subjects of the same Great Being, who
orders all things for his own glory, to
bow our hearts in humble resignation to
His Divine will. But while we do this,
we desire to record:
!. That as community, who have
known Major Ferry from his earliest
youth, and have seen the gradual devel-
opment of his character and powers, we
mourn the sad event which has so sud-
denly snatched him from us in the midst
of his usefulness, as a deep affection to
us all.
ii. But in the midst Of our sorrow we
also rejoice. We rejoice that the religious
instructions Of his early years, have so
borne appropriate fruit that the life of
Major Ferry was such an example of high
integrity in his business relations, of in
telligent, selfsacriicing patriotism, and of
calm, determined, personal bravery in the
defense of the right.
III. That we deeply sympathize with
the Rev. VIM, M. Ferry and his afflicted
family, in this sad bereavement. And
we desire respectfully TO commend them
for consolation to the recollection of the
bright example their beloved son and
brother has left behind him, and above
all to that fountain of sustaining grace
which they are so well assured can never
fail.
". We desire also tender our earn
est sympathies to the officers and men so
lately associated with him. They knew
bis cool, steady, unAinching bravery in
the face of danger, and his uniform kind
ness and regard for the welfare of his
command. They, as VIC, built for him
high hopes of usefulness in this terrible
struggle of bis country for life, only to be
disappointed and saddened by his untime.
ly fall. That his place may be we'll sup
piled, and his mantle fall on one worthy
to fill it, is both their desire and ours.
All of which is respectfully submitted.

Comfort for our Soldiers.

The following suggestion we find in a
communication to the Cincinnati Ga
zette. 1t is well worth the attention of
housewives, who have it within their
power to so materially add to the com
fort of our volunteers
The great want of our sick and
wounded soldiers, and the one which is
most difficult to supply, is fruit, vegeta-
bles and pickles. Last spring it was i'm
possible, as the Sanitary Committee sta
ted, to obtain these for 'floye or money"
Fruit is scarce in many places this wear.
With you it rests to have what there is
of every kind, for the noble soldier bows.
Let no fruit or vegetables go to waste
no apple rot under the tree. Let all. not
used for your own family, be prepared
for the Commission to distribute. Gath
er all of the green tomatoes, watermel-
ons, muskmellons, &c, now lying on the
frost-killed vines, chop them with cab
bage, place in barrels with salt for two
days, drain off the juice, add spices and
cover with vinegar, and you have a pic
kle delicious as well as health-giying to
the soldier used to salt rations. In or
der that none may, through neglect, suf-
fer anything to be lost, would it not be
well to appoint Committees to call from
house to house, to engage everything
suitable for the purpose, having the Socie
ty furnish the barrels, vinegar, &c? So
nobfy have you responded to every call,
that we believe the suggestion of this
viii meet with a prompt response.
A FRIEND OF THE SOLDIERS.
