By. sort OF baptist preacher that
lived on this mountain. would commece
revival OF religion at the school,
house on slim congregation. He
kept up his revival three DAYS aud
nights without getting mp the slieh,>

oh of February lie made a long and
fervent prayer. in which he said. 20

&c, DC The people still remained
but at the hour of Ten clock

trembled beneath the feet of the peo-
pie. The Reverend Posey was at work

THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,.
speech by Hon. Henry Lame, OF Cornwall, ON
the Agricultural College QLaiaiOn, In the
HOnse OF Representative, Nov. is, 1864.

A wise statesman. while looking at the
rapid growth and material abundance in our
country. will see amid all this prosperity
that under the past and present state Of ag-
riculture. the virgin soil that first yields
such abundant harvests, will some day be-
come exhausted and he will wisely inquire
is there intelligence enough among the agri-
cultural class. this great industrial class, to
remedy the evil? The able representative
from the second congressional district in our
state saw that the development Of our agri-
cultural resources, the prosperity of the
states, depended upon the practical educa-
ton Of the cultivatOrs Of the SOIL and the
state may well be proud that he originated
and presented the bill to Congress which be-
came law, granting lands to the states for
agricultural colleges 1t was one of the most
important acts ever enacted by Congress,
and one that will confer the greatest bene-
fits on the industrial classes in the several
states, if they will carry out the design Of
Congress.
The language Of the fourth section Of the
act is That all money derived from the
sale of lands aforesaid shall be inViolably ap.
propriated by each state which may take
and claim the benefit Of this act in the en-
dowment, support aud maintenance Of at
least one College where the leading object
shall be, without excluding other scientific
and classical studies, and including
military tactics, TO teach such branches oil
learning as are related to agriculture aud
tho mechanic arts, 10 such manner as the
legislatures of the States may respectively
prescribe, in order to promote the liberal
and practical education Of the industrial
classes in the several pursuits and professions
in life "
For the practical education of the in.
dustrial classes, Who belong to the in.
