The President of the College, N. R. MIDDLETON,
LID, then introduced to the audience MIR. HENRY
P. ARCHER, an alumnus, candidate for the Mas
ter's Degree, who came forward and announced his
subject 6 Utilitarianism.' This he proposed to
treat under three heads-1st. The Utilitarian sys-
TENS of Philosophy. I'd. It's antagonism with pure
morality; and Sd. It's effects or penalties.
1. He reviewed the system of JEREMY BENTHAM,
which he pronounced to all intents and purposes,
in it's teachings and tendencies ut least, that Of
EpIouRus. The utiEtarianism of DR.. PALEY, he
said, was different from the two preceding. PALEY
WAS actuated by religious motives, while BENTHAn
revelled in the vagaries Of casuistry.
e All systems not founded in truth are danger
GUS both jr theory and III practice. That utility
is oppose to morality can be seen in the every
day transactions of the world Self controls every
thing. The ego and the meuns are but seldom sub
ordinated to the tn and the tsum. With the ordi-
nary man of business whatever is expedient is
right.
8. The penalty of utiitarianism-its tendency to
reduce man to mere lover Of self and OF money.
He then won't on to describs in beautiful simlies
and pointed antitheses the sad and cheerless effect
such system Of philosophy exercises on Life; cast
ing it's blight over all that is good, pure and noble
in man. As he went on describing the result OF
the practical working Of this philosophy he painted
perfect picture of the poets ideal of
'sThe man that hath not music in his soul"
He is of the earth earthly, and enthusiasm is IN
element wanting in his nature. It is cold, calcu-
7ating, cynical system OF philosophy, and can see
good only in things that have marketable value
It would destroy the crowning glory Of humanity,
the aesthetic principle.
In conclusion the speaker entered on defence
of the classic languages against the assaults of
modern utilitarianism, and quoted the eloquent
language Of the late HUGH Sw1NToN LEaARE, in
support OF his position. Mr.. ARcHEn's address
was listened to with the greatest interest, and was
altogether creditable to him, in language style
and elocution and giving evidence Of no little re-
search. We have, perhaps, dono him injustice IN
attempting to give skeleton of his argument, for
it really conveys adequate idea Of his mastery
performance.
Mr.. JOHN A. MoRoso, of the Graduating Class,
was next introduced, and spoke on Immortality
He was greeted with prolonged applause, which
was well merited, for his composition was excel
ent his voice clear and distinct and his gestures

NECESSITY FOR 1T.

The want of a Line of Telegraph, located with
view to accommodate the river trade, has Ion 2
been felt. Many important towns are now with
out any Geographic communication whatever, and
the lines now established between other points
are, IN most cases, disconnected, following cir
cultons routes, hundreds of miles out of direct
course, causing vexatious and unnecessary DELAYS
to business, by reason of numerous repetitiens,
and the frequent Interruptions incident to long
lines. When the facts are borne in mind that the
liability of telegraph line to damage from any
cause is increased in the same proportion as its
length, and that the repetition of message dou-
bles the time necessary for its transmission, the
great and very important advantages of direct
route over the circuitous ones now in Operations
can readily be seen.

a GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE.

DIR. Maggielis the founder of a new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bow
els and with whose external remedies the uleeraf
ed and eruptiye surfaces of the skin are deluged
In vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from one to three
harmless pills, and cures the most viruIent and
sorofzfous dfsoruers with rom one three be es
of his matchless salve.
DR.. MaggiePs Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No more nauseating avalan.
ehes of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples throats. One of Maggiets Pitts rcctifes
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in a
space of time short enough to be almost classed
as marvellous.
In fact Maggel's Bilious, by speptic and Diarr-
hea Pills cure where all others fail. While for
Burns, scalds, Ghiibains, Cuts, and all abrassons
OF the skin, Maggiel's Salve is infallibie.
