College Discipline.

The Philadelphia National Baptist, in abiding to
the outrages recently committed by college Students
says
The scenes which were witnessed in Worcester,
Mass, few days ago are fitted to awaken earnest
sOlicitude. Boat clubs and base ball clubs composed
OF students IN two leading New England colleges
members OF the clubs were accompanied by large
number OF their fellow students and by students
from other colleges crowdng the city and adding in
terest to the contest. so far all was WELL But the
young men who thus filed the streets and hotels Of
Worcester, representing almost every college in New
England and belonging doubtless to many OF the
most cultivated and influential and Christian fam-
lies, did not all conduct themselves as such young
men ought to. Some OF them disturbed the quiet OF
the city at midnight; they INDUCED in reveiry and
boisterous songs; they committed depredatons on
private property; they offered insults to peaceful
citizens; they boldly set at naught the laws OF
the city and the Commonwealth and committed
offences which are not allowed In ordinary crcum.

The Lesson OF Maine,

The news from Maine was not unexpected.
We haze asserted the result day by day with
all the confidence of absolute knowledge.
We knew that the moment the people had
the issue of Peace or War placed squarey
before them, Peace would surely triumph.
And as it has swept through Maine, SO it will
sweep through every State in the North.
Peace means national prosperity from the
st. Lawrence to the Gulf, from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Peace means perfect equality
before the law for all men without regard to
color or condition. Peace means the con-
struction of railroads and canals in the South
as we'll as in the North. Peace means the
development of all the great resources of the
country wherever they lie untouched by en-
tcrprise and capital. Peace means free
schools, liberal institutions of learning, libe
raj churches and generous and unsectarian
moral and intellectual culture. Peace means
blessings unnumbered and untold, and
wealth and independence for all the people
of the land. Peace means the sure and GER
tain destruction of the slave oligarchy. Peace
means room and opportunity for the poor
white man to raise himself from the menial
condition slavery reduced him to- Peace
means the settlement forever Of the status of
the negro. All this Peace means and in6n-
itely more than we have time or space to re-
count. d ftI, j bs.. s,.,e.A la

mourning and lamentation in every house
hold. War means want and famine, and
sickness and disease. War means the con-
version Of churches and colleges into vast
hospitals. War means sin and crime and
1ebauchery, and all that is barbarous and
revolving, and loathsome to men who live in
a country calling: itself christian. War de.
stroys what peace builds. War strengthens
the animal but ruins the man. War means
distress and misery in all its countless phases,
while Peace means individual and national
happiness and prosperity.
The lesson of Maine is Peace. The People
have declared for Peace and as Maine has
spoken, so will every Northern State speak
when their time to speak has come. And
North Carolina will speak for Peace too.

An AWFUL AFFAIR-A portion o
Forepaugh's menagerie, including al
the larger animals, among which wal
the celebrated elephant "Romeo," wa
some time since placed in winter
quarters, in the ncighboring village o
Marlborough. This huge elephant hat
created quite a sensation in the pas
year by bis performances, and being
suddenly immured in a great cage, hai
become moody oflate. On Wednesday
morning last, his keeper, W. S, viii
Jams, went in to see him, and ordered
"Romeo" to perform some tricks
which he obstinately refused to do
and was whipped. Towards evening
OF the same day, Mr. Williams carried
some water into the cage, then barred
the door and tried to wash "Romeo's'
face and tusks. He had no sooner
approached within the reach of the
massive trunk of the elephant, than
the latter threw it out, and winding
it about the unfortunate man, hurled
him to the ground, and again and
again thrust his broken tusk into the
body of his victim. The limbs and
arms OF Williams were crushed by the
blows Of the enraged animal. The
piercing shrieks from Williams drew
to the scene little boy, who immedi-
ately ran for aid Several men broke
into the barred cage but were too late
TO save the wounded man, who, after
an hour of intense suffering, expired.
Mr.. Williams belonged to London, in
Canada West, where he owned farm.
He was about forty years of age, and
was married, but without children.
His wife was with him at Marlborough.
He was man of most excellent char.
acter, and beloved by all who knew
him. lie has taken much interest in
a religious revival going on in one Of
the churches of this place. He was
"Romeo's' keeper before, for five or
six years, and he had been otherwise
engaged until just one year, to a day,
before his death, when he again took
charge Of him, and had been with him
since. "Romeo," Immediately after
he had rcvengcd himself for the indig-
nifty of his chastisement, became do
