The people, through tha press, all over tbe lend, are laudatory of bis talent and lltneae for the high sod responsible position of President of e free government. His independent, manly end d.gniiled course ae United Statee Senator, bis love end devotion to the Ooaatituiton, hta readiness 1a debate, unanswerable arguments, warning blsootemporaries against transcending their powers to tha msitol struggle against Impeachment, end tbe life of the nation, has v/on for him enduring fame, such as few mortals have ever

Prospective Cabdidatbs.—Tbe New Albany Ledger, In commenting upon the suggestions of tbe Cory don Democrat in regard to Messrs. Kerr and Wolfe, re-
marks:
The Democrat says nothing of either Mr. Wolfe or Mr. Kerr that we oan not tall? endorse. Both gentlemen bave done gallant mrrloe In behaif of the Democracy, and both arc deserving of every honor that can be bestowed upon them. Undoubtedly Mr. Wolfe would make an able member of Congress, end Mr. Kerr e moot excellent Executive. It seems to us. bowever, that It tt inadvlaable to begin the agitation of the queetlon of candidates so long in advance of the elections. Tbe CongraesioaelConvention will not be held for nearly a year, sod the Gubernatorial nomination U far la the future, Governor Baker bevtoff nsered hut Httle more then six months of hla term of four years. We fear the efforts of tbe agitation of tbe question of eandldatee at so early a day. The people of this dtotriot know Mr. Wolfe, and appreciate hte merits. They also know the other gentlemen whose names will probably be presented to tbe Dom'.netlng oonvaattoni bat we fear that a prematarx agitation of their olaliqe will produce e stale ot feeling unfavorable to that thorough harmony which la essential to exoceae. Tbe State Convention will probably art he held till Tuly, It being now gee tt the 8th of January U

June or July, it being now generally ceded that t he 8tb of January is altogether too early for that parpoee, ead we hope the agitation about prospective candidates for office. State or Congressional, will not be beguh for some months yet. Thb Indiana Gtatn University at Bloomington.—A catalogue of this University has been pieced ta onr bands, by which we learn that It has Just closed another meet prosperous.peer. It lastly ranks among the best edneettonal institution* of the land, and Is an honor to the State. Number of professors end tutors, 18; number of graduates In tbe oollegUte course, 9Si in the law department, 18; toal, 4L Whole number of students, 230. of whom 288 are IX the four college daeeea and to tbe law department. Tuition Is now free for ell, ta every department of tbe University. Ladles are admitted to the college dseseeon tbe same terms aa

Since the catalogue was printed, tbe trneteee have enlarged the law department, by the establishment ol two chairs instead of one; both of which wilt soon be ably filled. The law forma wUl be tbe seme length as tbe college terms, continuing nine months per annum. Tuition Is now free in this department. Janitor’s
fee, three dollars per form. '
The Board have also established two more chairs in tbe collegiate department, via: A Professorship of “Modern Languages and History," and a Professorship of “Civil Engineering.” It Is expectedthat both of these will be filled By the commencement of the form. Two thousand dollars have been appropriated for the Increase Of the law IlDrary, and the magnifioent mineralogies! and geological cabinet of the late Dr. David Dale Owen, of New Harmony, baa been purchaaed for the University, together with excellent and unequalled chemical iratus.

Tbo normal department, under the charge of Professor G. IV. Hose, A. M., late Superintendent of Publio Instruction, is in successful operation, and affords a rare opportunity to those wishing to teach, to prepare themselves for that im-
