State TO break down, In large measure,
the advantages which one class Of citi.
zens would have over another.@s The
poorest people, and men of limited
means, are not the ones to complain OF
the University. It is destined TO dignity
and elevate their station in life, for it
will frequently send out bright men with
trained minds from these CLASSES who
will tcompete successfully with the sons
of rich men in all the walks Of life. 1t
may not satisfy DR.. Cook for US to say
that the University is here to stay, but
he will live long enough, we hope, to see
that the assertion is true. Anderson
may waste her strength in fighting it if
sbe chooses, but it ia lost battle before it
is begun. There will be crushing
majority in favor Of the University, and
it will have the life, and progress, and
intelligence of the State as itssupporters.
Therefore, we repeat that the men who
now set themselves up to fight the Uni

will be looked upon as lacking in pro.

The M. E.. socInI.

The social at the Washington street NJ. E. church was largely at tended last evening. showing the increasing favor in which these very enjoy able entertainments are held. A fine programme, consisting of se- lect reading and vocal mus ic, served to interest the audience for a por- tion of the tune. The fine quartette, "Come where the Lilies Bloom," sung at the recent concert, was re- I.eated by request and Was sung with even better effect than before. MT. J. M Schott then favored the auG- fence by reading the Brand New Oraan" in an effective manner, and was followed by MT. 5. M. Huston with that touching production of Will Carleton's entitled Betsy and are out" rendered in MT. Huston's easy and aprrecialive manner.
 ''Larbond Watch, Ahoy," by re- quest, was then rendered by Mrs Frank Cox and Rev. Pearson, and the wonderfully clear, strong, culti vat, d voices of the singers serv, d to set forth that somewhat difficult selection with realism that clothed It with fresh interest.
 Jerry Millay's rendition of the starving scene from 'Hiawatha" then followed in a manner that showed careful study Of the sub ject and he very marked ability of that gentleman ln the elocutionary line The finer tOut hes of feeling were wrought out by MT. Millay in manner that commanded the high est appreciation of the audience, and did ample justice to the weird and beautiful, the wild and terrible scenes in which the selection abounds.
 Mrs G. w Drew followed with a solo, Under the Daisies" in that lady's inspiroachab style, and in answer 10 q hearty encore sarg Tap ping at the Garden Gate" delight- ful little ballad which iE her hands is rendered a perfect gem of song.
 Messrs. Pearson, McNulty, Miller and Winters, by request of the au- dience, repeated tue very laurhable quartette, sung on a former occasion, of Eggs for Breakfast" with the usual result of putting everybndy i n good humor. The gustatoiy and sn- cial exercises were then announced, and proce' ded to the infinite saiis> faction of every '; ody, till about 10 o'clock, when the large and well 1 pleased audience slowly dissolved with many remarks of appreciation of the endeavors of the pastor and ladies of the church to please and entertain their many friends.
