Independent Lecture.

The tenth lecture Of the Independent Course
was delivered last evening to a very fair house
Notwithstanding the bad condition of the
streets, by Mrs. Frances E. Harper, upon our
National Opportunities. 1t was an admirable
address, felicitously worded, forcible and con-
yincing, and did not fail to elicit the most gen.
erous applause
She is hopeful for the colored race, and does
not believe the benefits of the great STRUGGLE
through which we have passed are to be lost,
even should politicians prove faithless. 1t is
not in the nature of moral revolutions to 90
backwards.
In speaking of negro suffrage, Mrs. Harper
said she would urge its importance as an edu-
cational agency. Said she, "let it be under
stood that all the colored people are to enjoy
the right of suffrage, and in twenty-tour hours
every copperhead paper from Maine to Geor-
gia will learn to spell negro without using
too gs. Let a convention of colored people
meet in this hail. /" she continued, "and the re-
porters of such papers would not find it neces-
sary to mince all round the hall like a school
girl to find place to spread his paper, so that
dark shadow need not fall upon it," This
palpable but handsome hit at the reporter of a
eopperhead paper in this city, who reported
the former lecture of Mrs. Harper, did not fail
to bring down the house in the most appreci-
alive manner. VI -e.fI .--L
2 The lecture was just one hour in delivery.
Shaw's Quartette Club performed acceptably
at the opening and the close.
The next and closing lecture of the course
is to be delivered Monday evening, Feb. 9TH,
by Gen. o. o. Howard.

The Case Forcibly Stated.

The Knoxville Wing, the organ of Cover
nor Brownlow, and We believe still edited by
him, sums up the whole case of the southern
rebellion and the presen. attitude of the over
powered rebels, as follows:
Six millions of white people, without shad
ow of pretext, engaged in a struggle to over
throw a government, and with it twenty mil
lions of whites and four millions of Blacks
They waged a terrible war, characterized by
fendish barbarism never equaled before
since the beginning of time. They caused an
the nation. They murdered fifty thousand of
the soldiers of the Government by starvation
and cold, denying them fire by, winter and
shelter in the summer. They burned cities
and spread pestilence; they assassinated the
ruler of the country; filled the country with
widows and orphans; demoralized the
Churches, and blasphemed the name OF God;
and now ask to cote and rule the country, as
they had formerly donew

Trustees of the Industrial college.

At the meeting of the Trustees of the In
dustrial College, at Augusta, Thursday even
ing, the vote was taken, as mentioned in the
dispatch in yesterdays PRESS, upon locating
the College, and decided in favor of Orono by
a vote of eight, to seven for Topsham. The
Trustees then pledged themselves to united
action in behalf of the institution.
Hon. Samuel F. Perley, Trustee from this
County, resigned his place, and Hon. Phinehas.
Barnes was elected to the vacancy.
Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, Trustee from Pen
obscot County, also resigned. This vacancy
will be filed by the Legislature.
Various Committees for conducting the af-
fairs of the College were appointed.
The resignation of Mr.. Hamlin left the
Board without President. Hon. Robert
Martin, of Danville, was elected President
pro. tenn. Hon. Phinehas Barnes was then
elected permanent President.
At a previous meeting Hen. W.A.P. Dill
lingham, of Waterville, was elected Trustee
for Kennebec County, in place of Thomas S.
Lang, resigned. y
Much regret was expressed at the resigna-
ton of MIR. Lang, who was one Of the most
efficient members of the Board. His i'll health
caused his resignation, and the members of
the Board extend to him their sympathy I'M
der his affection.

The Mining Interests of California.

Notwithstanding the depression in Washoe
stocks, the legitimate mining Interests of Cal
ifornia still maintain their supremacy. At
ter prospecting Nevada, Idaho, and other diff
ferent mining regions, in search of some "big
thing" large numbers OF the hardy and ener-
getic citizens or California, finding that they
have "gone farther and Jared worse" are salts
fed to return to their first love, and again
take up their fortunes in the Golden State,
being satisfied that they have "just as good a
thing as they want" nearer home. Many of
this class have become fully convinced of the
Mexican axiom that it takes gold mine to
work silver mine, and having demonstrated
this fact to their entire satisfaction, have re-
turned to California to find and work the gold
mine, before they prospect further for silver.
Practical quartz miners have estimated that
gold rock that will average ten dollars per ton
on this side of the Sierra Nevada, is better
thing than any of the silver leads that yield
one hundred dollars to the ton on the other !;
the difference beng in the cost of reduction.
While the papers have been teeming with
glowing accounts of rich yields in Washoe,
Idaho, and other distant regions, there has
been little or nothing said in relation to the
steady golden stream passing from the numer-
GUS quartz mills in operation in California.
We will venture the assertion that there has
been more money taken out in the Grass Val
ley mining district alone, than there has been
in thefVirginia City mills during the past year;
yet there has been nothing said about it,
True, there has been no "big strikes" no ex-
traordinarily rich discoveries, no startling
developments" but the results have been reg
ular and largely remunerative.
The most active gold quartz operations in
California for the past few years have been
carried on in the counties of Nevada, Sierra
and Plumas, which may be regarded as COM
posing the richest and most extensive gold
quartz area in the State. The coming season
promises to be one of more than usual activi-
ity in operations in this department, both in
prospecting for new leads and erecting machin-
cry for working those already located. Ex-
tensive sales OF real bona tide mines in this
region, not OF the bogus or wildcat stamp,
have been made to eastern capitalists who will
commence with the arrival OF the first favora-
BILE weather to erect machinery for developing
and working the same. To all appearances,
the coming year will add largely to the min
ing wealth Of the State.-San francisco Dali

American Ignorance.

The London Times devotes a ponderous
leader to considering the commercial policy OF
the United States. AS might be expected, the
Protective policy finds little favor at the hands
of the Times writer, and he goes into some
elaborate arguments to show the Suicidal fol-
ly" of such course on the part of our legis-
lators. With the merits of those arguments
we have just now nothing to do; we only al
Jude to the matter for the purpose of making
single extract from the article in question.
Here it is:
I'VE do, indeed, hope and believe that the
attempt to intensity the mischief of the pro-
mDltory duties ofthe Union will be unsuccess-
Iui, though we have no expectation Of any
speedy reversal of its general policy We call
ed it strange that an artificial and restrictive
system should find its last resting place in free
America, but the strangeness disappears on re-
Election. Education in the States is universal,
but it is as shallow as it is wide-spreading.-
Eoe,y one knoa0s something, but it is rare
to meet any one acho gires evidence of hating
thought out anything"
We think it would be difficult to find in a
dozen lines more of the concentrated essence
of self-complacent John Bull-ism than is here
contained.
