Education and Agriculture In North
Carolina,

A meeting was held in Philadelphia last even
ing for the purpose of giving information to
those interested in the operations Of the nBalti-
more Associations for the relief and education of
Friends in North Car0na.'' +. T. King, Presi-
dent of the Association, addressed the meeting Mt
length, referring to the history of the Friends in
the Southern States; to the origin and progtes of
the Testimony" against slavery, which they
have openly borne in Maryland, Virginia. aud
North Carolina for nearly hundred wears; TO
the effect of their refusal to be implicated in it
upon their social position, their pecuniary pros
poets, and the wholesale emigration to the West.
which began with the era Of the cession of the
N. W. Territory by Virginia to the general gov.
eminent and continued up to and even during
the late war, and by means of this emigration
they were deprived of the best and most energetic
part of their numbers, while four large yearly
Meetings have been established in the Western
States, composed In great part OF these emigrants
from the South and their descendants. They
now form an important element in the popula-
tion of Ohio, Indiana, Iowa and Kansas, and in
many places have regaincd the position which
was emiuently the characteristic of the early
Quakers, of a missionary and proselyting church.
The historyof the Friends of North Carolina ard
Virginia during the war, is one of intense interest
They not only retained their allegiance to the
u.s.G .Government, but they. supported besides with
Innocent boldnesss,a at the hazard of their lives and
through much and varied suffering, their Chris
tlan testimony TO the peaccable nature of the
Gospel. The wondersul result of this unswery-
ing faithtuiness Is now seen They came out of
the war, Impoverished Indeed and dshcartened
as were their nelghbors, but with them, hope in
| the future, patient labor for the sake of their
ehlldren, and the means of excellent education
nave set Them already in position far in advance
OF other communities in the neighborhood
Such Is the result of faithful adherence to con-
| science and duty, through a long course of ad-
| verse Circumstances; and the result the speaker
/ did not hesitate to call Providential one, n
tn's opinion VIC think mnny will agree with him

The bitterness of Hate.


Yes, love is sweet. but syren, have care
Let me not taste the bitter Of despair,
For then revenge alone TO me were sweet,
I ne'er would die a slave at woman's feet;
You've snarcd me with your gold lnxurant hair
And lured me with your blue bcwildring eyes,
increased each day the working of the spell
That holds my heart In chains nor let me dwell
Irpeace m ment,-I ant IN loue's hell!
Far dash'd The light Of thy fame-laden eye
To pierce the gloom that pall'd my passions sky
And ], lured on by that false beacon light,
Brav'd loves wild pillows ID the darksome night
Sought for haycn-listeDd to no cry
ofthose, whom, seeking thee, were ever wreck'd
Ana now thy light, thou heartlo-s berg Of ice,
Hath shown me bu, the turn Of fortunes dice
My fac I've learned, hut at a fearful price.
I'm toss'd by passion rock'd by anger's waves =
oh! woman, think you all men can be slayess
ana The wreck which you in sport have made,
Yet traitors have been crush'd by ones betrayed
And thou. who ever curses, but never saves,
May find thy fatal lisht at once grow dim.
And all the pains inf cted by thy wes,
Thy silngs concealed within thy sweetest smiles,
Keturn'd upon thy head like falling tiles.

,Iessup q Moores Rockland paper mills. II is

COMPLIMENT TO WILMINGTON MEcHAIcs.
Oxford Press in giving a lengthy description OF
the large spoke factory of Strahorn Pierson d
Co., at roughkenamon Station, Chester county,
speaks as follows:
The engine which affords the power for this
mill deserves more than passing notice. 1t lie
OF the celebrated Coriss pattern, built by j. Nor
ton Pool & Co., of Wilmington, who are consid-
cred the best engine builders in the country.
This engine has been run about ten years without
costing 81 for repairs. and there is now no appre-
ciable wear in any of its parts. Mr. Isaac Slack,
member of the firm, who has the supervision OF
the engine and other machinery, takes great de-
light in keeping everything In order, and has
given much attention to the economy of mechan-
ical operations. Mr.. s. Highly recommends the
Wilmington built Corliss engine.

BIsHop LAY.-We are much pleased to see that
the Right Rev. Henry G. Lay has been elected to
the new diocese of the Eastern shore of Mary

Bishop Lay is virginian, man of great abil-

man, that stands by that Prayerbook to which at
his ordination he swore to conform.
He has been heretofore employed in rather a
desolate portion of the ecclesiastical vineland,
having been Missionary Bishop in Arkansas,
with no very fixed abode-a sort OF Episcopal

A Handsome Improvement at Clnymont.
We arc always pleased TO notice improvements
in any neighborhood, and particularly so when
the beauties ard harmonies of art are combined
with usefulness, for not only is the builders com.
tort subseryed in such cases, but a substantial
benefit is conferred on the community by giving
1t something beautiful to look at.
Such an improvement is the elegant mansion
Just erected by Rev. Dr. Clemson. Occupying a
most beautiful position on the rising ground near
Claymont station, it has widely extended view
OF the three States of Pennsylvania, New Jersey
and Delaware, as well as the Delaware River.
The building, in tie materials employed and IN
all Its arrangements, us well as its artistic finish,
is OF the very first qualify. One may go far with
out finding dwelling of superior beauty and
excellent workmanship. The p'an il unique in
several respects. The frame work is lined with
fell as well as boards. The interior is finished
without paint, showing the natural woods, which
are In beautiful continuation The house is ca
paclons aud convenient, and has all the modern
