The University Bill.

Nearly forty years ago the necessity vas
felt for providing mssns for higher education
IN Ireland which would be open to Roman
Catholics. Tho principles upon which the
Queens colleges and universities were or
ganized were Of secular type. The course
Of studies was limited TO secular subjects.
and admission was free to all persons without
regard 10 creeds. The same rule was applied
to tie dignataries, examiners, and professors
Of the institutions, and no kind Of religious
teaching vas made necessary part Of COL
lsgiate discipline. At the same time encoug-
agement was given to the voluntary religious
teaching Of tie students; the clsrgy Of all
the Irsh churches were Invited to minister to
their spiritual wants, subject TO the approval
Of parents and guardians. Mr. Peel, 70
whom the idea OF this organization Is chiefly
to be ascr.bed, hoped that goodwill and
harmony would thus be promoted among the
different sectarians, and he never doubted
that Roman Catholics, whose benefit he had
mainly In view, would largely avail them
selves OF these privileges.
These calculations have not been realized

AS WAS to be expected, the Credit Mobilier
and other recent national disgraces have not
inspired Our English cousins with any new
measure Of affection or respect for US. The
Spectator says, with considerable force: 1.-THE
real difficulty In studying this problem Of cor
rupuon Is to understand why the people bear
it, to decide whether the electors acqu,esce
in their sale by their representatives. II
they do, the struggle Is over; but If they do
not, all may be redeemed. A nation may
fall into the hands Of corrupt class as into
the hands Of a corrupt king. and yet remain
itself uncorrupted. That certainly happened
in England under Charles H., when king
courtiers, and statesmen alike accepted brides
which the electorate would have rejected
with contemptuous scorn and under Wal
pole, when peers apologized for rejecting
triteS which tailors would have thrown In
the faces Of those who offered them. We see
some faint reason to believe that this Is the
case also Ia America, and that the ultimate
cause Of the popular federation for corruption
Is popular ignorance. The electors do no,
believe their representatives corrupt. They
are not addressed on the subject by repre-.
scDtatives from other States, the discussion q
seldom raised by men they respect, they arr
compelled 10 trust the ne Espapers, and the
newspapers on questions Of personal charac
Ter have utterly lost their confidence. Sc
malignant and universal Is the abuse show
cred Oh politicians In the Union, that an &C
cusatiop Of theft Is accepted Ike one Of Mr.
loves Or lE. Hascourt's eptgrams, - a
expression, not Of the writer's full conv1c
Sop, but Of his political disllkes."

A thrilling description was given OF the
speakers first hearing osJoha QUiney Adams.
and the great apostle OF the Abolition cause
VIM. Lloyd Garrison. the apostrophe 10 the
latter being most beautiful. The arguments
used in the cause at that day were given in
detail-the ignorance OF the slaves. thew
the Gospel If they were free, aud many
others. He had heard the Gospel preached
in the South from the text. Servants, obey
your masters" until he had the headache.
They must obey, because the Lord said So

Of them knew that well,) laughter, / and be-
cause the good Lord had Put it into the hearts
Of men to 60 thousands of mile: to snatch
them as brands from the burning. Then thew
said. "You will never put slavery down in

gument. why don't you come South and

dell Phillips once, and what he was doing.
He said he was preaching against slavery.
why don't you come South where it is 81
was replied. "What are you doing" said
Phillips, preaching the Gospel. Why don't
you 90 to -, where 1t will do some good 81
A number Of other objections were given.
Among the objections was that wherein it
was said that the
BILE EFETDED SLAVERY.
Volumes could be written upon this theme
alone, and the best arguments in defense of
that book ever made did not come from the
pulpit, but from the speakers on the Adolf
uon platform. Slavery never sought REFUGE
In the Bible Of its own accord; the horns of
the altar were its last resort. The commands
thunder out, Thou shalt not steal" Thou
shalt not covet," and the Abolitionist
snatched the Bible from the hands of those
who would make it sanction sanctfed crime.
The method of holding conventions was
stated, and the Godsend it was to those who
could not get an audience any other way.
All tho sane and many OF the insane-those
who don't believe in things tina. exist, but in
those that do not exist-carne to the meet
ings and made them lively. Several instances
were given. [ \ lady in the audience seemed
to be amused and laughed, and the speaker
said, II must be very amusing to that side
Of the house; but when | cannot instruct
am glad to amuse." The laughter ceased.
The speaker said, in conclusion: Slavery
Is abolished; the negro has the cartridge
box, the ballot-box, the ijury-box, and now
we must give him the knowledge box. The
Administration that gives him this will be
the greatest and grandest champion of hui
when every child of the Republic will be
brought within the sphere Of education
when schools will be open at every cross
road, free to all, without regard to color, sex,
or previous condition of scryitude .-Plila

ExCALITY or NAN BEFORE HIS CREATOR

State Treasurer Cardoza, Of South Caro-
lima, reports depiorable state Of finances in
that Commonwealth. The Legislature has
adjourned without taking a single practical
step toward freeing the State Of its enormous
burden Of debt, and the State tax OF this wear
will amount to 81 so 900, against 400, 600
before the war. One million and a quarter
OF this has already been paid In, and yet, the
Treasurer adds, there viii be q deficiency Of
s3o0, 900 or 40, 900 to lie provided for out Of
next years levy. As reasons for this de-
plorable state Of affairs the Treasurer as
signs-ilrst, the heretofore extravagances
and spoliaiions; aud, second, the fact that the
appropriations have been made with lavish
hand, and without reference TO the amounts

six inches In length, four feet, nine inches
wide, and over eight feet high. The base Is
a solid block Of Conowingo granite, weighing
four tons. On the marble panel facing north
is an inscription bearing his name, the time

The past as we'll as the present has its

are worthy Of broad observation and the

can assail, whose eloquence, as steady as the
North star, guided many from boudage-eveu

he asks US to forget the past. We need to
remember Vicksburg, the Potowac, Bull Run,
and Gettysburg, and every field that was oc.
cupled In the struggle. We are more likely
to forget too soon than too late. At the end
OF a hundred years 1t will be hard to make
people believe that We had such a thing as
slavery In this country. 1t was not until we
heard the ground crumbling under our feet
It was not until agony was planted in every

From the New York Tribune.
The steamship Egypt of the National
line has brought to this port 100 colo
nists who are on the way to Clay county,
Mimi, on the line of the Northern Pa
ci6e railroad. The pioneers of this col
ony arrived here about month ago, and
proceeded at once to Clay county to pre-
pare homes for the second party. The
second party of Yeovil colonists are farm
ers and mechanics from Yorkshire, Eng
land They were provided with tickets
at reduced rates of transportation, and
proceeded IN good spirits to their desti-
nation, under the charge of the agents
of the railroad company. The transac-
tions with this party amounted to about
$40, 900. Many of them brought their
own farming tools and implements, and
will be ready to use them at once after
their arrival.
