BEAUTIFUL AND TBUE.-At the recent Free
Trade Dinner in New York, William Cullen
Bryant made a speech, in which the following
beautiful extract occurs:
He who framed the universe gave to differ
ent regions of the globe different climates,
yielding different productions for the use Of
man. He peopled them with different races Of
mankind, varying from each other in their ap.
titude for the useful and ornamental arts Of
life. He gave them the skill to invent and
construct rapid modes of conveyance across the
land and across the deep, from latitude to lati-
tude, from realm to realm, and from continent
to continent, and said to them, "Impart to
each other what You can best produce;" in
other words, "to communicate forget not
words which you will find in an ancient book
belonging to the sacred literature of Palestine.
Such was the order He established, the order
of nature, and by his help, and through the in
strumentality of the Free Trade League and its
sister associations, and by means of good un-
derstandng with all who think as we do. we
will attack and overthrow, and trample to frag-
ments and utterly destroy all the institutions
and inventions Of man which have for their OBJ
iect to obstruct and thwart the natural work
lngs of this benefcent system Of Providence.

valued at over 100000. Napa has made a
princely offer, but she understood the value of
what she was bidding for. The college will
become one Of the largest and most complete
educational institutions in the State. II is
established by large, wealthy and flourish
ing Order, one of whose principles is educa-
ton and improvement. The town in which
the College is located has something Of which
it may well be proud. 1t will be an honor to
any town or city, and in financial point of
view will be worth hundreds Of thousands of
dollars to the people and country around it,

Drnth Of Gcn.rnIP PrimI

When General Prim was wounded on last
"wednesday by "A band of assassins, who lay i'll
wait for him he was quitting the CorteZ, il
%as telegraphed that his injuries were slight
aud his life not in danger. 1t will, therefore,
cause some surprise to learn that he expired
on yesterday. in consequence of his wounds.
30 the most prominent, If not the greatest and
best man III Spain, has fallen by the hands of
u gang of cowaTdly assassIns. The deceased
General has been connected with the history
of his country during quarter Of II century.
and during the most OF that time he occupied
"A high position IN the State. He was extreme
ly ambitious and fond Of power. aud sought
invariably to turn the turmOIls and cOmmUtIOnS
which distracted Spain to his own personal
advantage. No man better understood the
peculiar temper of the people with whom he
had To deal, and he tried every means to in
gratiato himself with them. His enemies
claimed that he did this with the design of
clearing the way to the throne. for the hold of
the rcigning Queen upon the affections Of the
people was 80 slight from the very day Uf her
accession that Prlm not unnaturHlly thought
careful intrigue, eliminating IN revolution
might remove her and seat hIm IN her place.
Accordingly he took leading part in all pO-
hucI movements. being apparently little
guided 10y principle. Sometimes he whs a 10y
ulIst, and at others he was II rebel. being true
only to himself constantly. During the early
part OF Queen Istbella'S reign he Was over
shndowcd 10y - DUnurll. Narvncz and Espur-
tcru; but of late days he has been the most
conspicuous character ia Spanish political
movements. lie was the chief promoter of
the war with Mexico. which WAS brguu 10y

finished 10y FTarce alone. IL said that he am
bltOned the Imperial clown of Mexico, but
the selection of MaXimIliiau 10y Napoleon III.
frustrated his intrigUss'. In 1864 he was eE-
lied for conspiracy against the throne OF isu-
bella. In 1856 he commenced the revolt at
AranjueZ. which ter piuHted ia AN iguominions
retreat into Portugal Two years afterwards,
he with SerranO and Topeto brought about the
revolution which compelled Isabella to fly.
During the interrcgnnm Prim delivered many
addresses uf an extremely liberal and demo
cratic tendency, that the Republicans be-
gan to look upon him AS II convert to their
opinions. His advocacy of the election of the
Duke dAosta undoceivcd them, and they
seemed 10 consider him traitor To their cause.
Hence his death was determined upon by
some fanatics Of the party, aud on last We'll
nesday they morlally wounded him. He tx.

deuce at Madrid. His death will not serve
any party, but it BODIES no good to tho new

STEwART's NEw NINISG BILL.-The Nevada
(Cal.) Transcript, in speaking of Stewart =
new Mining Bill, lately introduced into Con
gress, saysi
"The object OF the bill seems to be TO give
large tracts Of surface ground to locators of
quartz lodges. The bill proposes to allow
grants 600 feet wide and equal 10 100 acres of
land for each claimant to be taken up. We
do not believe this To bo good policy. Such
locations ns arc provided by this bill would
soon place every foot of land in Nevada county
in the hands Of companies and individuals
owning and locating quartz lodgcs, and would
do much to discourage the settlement of such
persons as are desirous of planting vineyards
and cultivatng the soil. The present law
may bo made good enough by amendment.
There should be some provision made for the
location of millsitcs Independent of mines,
and also for granting reasonable amount of
surface ground for dwellings, shops. etc, for
miners But no such law as will give 200
ncres of land To a single company should be
passed by Congress, especially when many OF
the mine owners will reside out of the county
or bo citizens of foreign countries, Tho pub.
lie lands ought To bo reserved for actual set.

throw these lnnds into tho hands Of specula.

II ought to pass in its present form"

A Trip TO Vest Poimt-TAe Train At
tackea by Boys, aoiM Stones. Yesterday
morning we took the York River railroad
train for West Point, in company with G..
I. Wilmington, of the Washington Reyub-
lican, and Mr.. Godwyn, of the Dispatch.
Everything at the Point was in a healthy
condition. We found Mr.. Massey, the pro-
prietor of the Huntington House, all that
we wish to see in hotel keeper. We
were glad to have the privilege of visiting
the sabbath school, under the superinten-
cy of Mr.. P. M. Brooke. A large sabbath
school could be gotten together, if the diffe-
rent denominations would join and labor
for that work. West Point is beautifully
located for town.
At O'Clock we left for home. On our
way back, at crossing some miles from
Richmond, three boys were under some
trees on the side Of the railroad, and as the
last car was passing them, commenced
throwing stones, one of them taking effect
on the window of the coach, breaking tn,
window, and very nearly Gripping lady
who was sitting near it. Captain Bragg
superintendent of the road, should hav,
these offenders ferreted out and brought t,

The Fine Arts.--We had the pleasure
this morning of looking through the fine art
establishment of Walsh & Reddy, 921
Main street. We found a superb collection
of oil paintings, chromos, &C., in their neat
and dnicely fitted up galleries, the productions
Of the most celebrated artists the world
has produced. The display of chromos is
especially complete, embracing both foreign
and domestic reproductions. Pictures of
this description are becoming very popular,
because OF their comparative cheapness,
and to such degree of perfection has this
branch of the fine arts reached, that chro-
mos are often preferred, not by connoisseurs
perhaps, but yet by those whose esthetic
tastes are to be gratified rather than pride
measured by the amount of money ex-
pended, a sort of popular enthusiasm for
originals.
All the pictures III Messrs. Walsh q
Reddy's galleries are framed in the work
shop of their establishment, and the work
is as well done as elsewhere in the country.
Their stock of goods, in addition to the pic
lures named, embraces photographs, al
buns, books and stationery. We call the
attention of our readers to their advertise
ment to be found in our paper.

Hard Hits.--We are not always at the
bottom of the hard hits, which occasionally
appear in the columns of our paper. The
blow'we propose to direct, comes not from
us, but from an old battle-scarred sol
dier of the Confederacy, who from his man
ner and talk, can sing, "Oh, Pm good
old Rebel, ]" and who wouldn't mind having
another turn at "brother Jonathan"
Listen to what he says:
Mr.. JOURNAL, | came in this morning,
to call your attention to an article in the
local of the Dispatch, which says a Con-
federate flag was sold to Squire Mccormick
for Sl.25-sixty-five cents more than one
of the Union sold for a short time ago.
Now, Mr.. JOURNAL, do think the Squire
could have, for the sake of patriotism,
paid even more than that, for it is the only
one he ever took hold of, walked under or
after, even during the war.
''Me and old Jube Early have been after
these sort o. chaps ever since we surren-
dered, and if uncle Jube ever comes
across the squire, he will get piece of his
mind, too." -
Our old Confederate friend begun to talk
so fast after getting excited, we were una
BILE to understand all he said about uncle
Jube, but as he left our office, we heard
him say, "Walker, preacher, turned pol
itician, Jube Early and John Baldwin, y
Call again, Johnny, when you have longer
to remain.
