pro feskion. The instruction is communica- , ted bv lectures, with illustrations on the pjaca- j . ..' board and propounding questions to the class. , These lectures embrace not only a summary J of the several branches taught, but also the j most approved methods of teaching them. A public lecture will be delivered on each evening during the session, if competent lecturers can be secured. On Monday evening. Dr. Cutter of Mass. author of the popular work on Physiology, delivered a very interesting and instructive lecture on hia favorite science, and the best method of teaching it. lie also dwelt at some length on the anatomy and functions of the skin. His remarks were plain, practical and highly suggestive. Though tut gifted with great powers of elocution, Dr. C. appears to possess a large fund of knowledge d native gooa sense. wU,u him to elucidate his subject with unusual clear ness. We regret that his audience was so sma'l. This was owing to the fact that no general notice was given, as his arrival was uncertain. On Tuesday evening. Pro.'. Stoddard of Pa. author of several excellent works on Arithmetic, delivered a lecture to a large and intelligent audience. His remarks were directed to tlwt subject of education generally, and the importance of adopting correct methods of teaching.' His lecture was quite able, in many passages eloquent, and was highly appreciated by the audience. On this. (Thursday evening.) Prof. Hurty cf Newport, Ky. will letture upon the subject of -Graded Schools." Prof. 11. has the reputation of an accomplished teacher and superior lecturer. We trust that our citizens will turn nut irenerallv to hear him. and will en- & j g:igo that they are agreeably entertained and profited by his lecture. The subject of Union vi On aJod Schools is an interesting one to our penplo just at this time, when they are about to test the advantages of this system, and it I .1 11.11 tl I - - f I Mil llt.J J- - ning and Prof. Nutt on Monday evening next. These and other lectures will bo duly announced by handbills. The Institute will continue for two weeks. The public are cordially invited to attend its exercises. Ma. Morton's Spkbcu at Lafayette. Our neighbor of the Jeffersonian copies from the Lafayette American, a notice of a speech recently made by O. P. Morton, Esq., in Lafayettd, and says it is from the Gazette, a "Fusion" paper. Now, our neighbor has, cither from ignorance or baseness, imputed to the editor of the Lafayette Gazette, a "Fusion paper," remarks and sentiments never expressed by him. It is becomiag too common a practice for old liners to quote from papers of their own "kith andkia," and impute such extracts to respectable "Fusion" papers, for the sake of giving them force and character. There must bo some design in such conduct, and that design can be nothing but a desire to impose upon the public the opinions of sa old liner for those of a respectable, truth-telling and reliable fusion editor. The Lafayette American editor is not partial to Mr. Morton is equally severe upon Mr. Campbell, and does not like JuJge Test. And from a careful reading of , his paper, for the last few months, we have j . . ' t IkMn nKTaft t.'V itia.AA, a n.li.Ti(w n i . u u.Bw.s a i muj j person, or any special measure, except it be , Catholic policy, and opposition to the liquor law. We suggest to our neighbor that when suggest to oar neirnoor mat when he wishes to misrepresent and slander Mr. Morton, that he do it with the pen and tongue of an old-liner instead of those of a deeent man. It is useless for Mr. Elder to attempt to detract from the well-earned reputation of Mr. Morton, as a public speaker. He has but few superiors in the State, either in the manner or style of oratory, or the logical arrangement of his subject. We know of no one in this State more free in his criticisms upon the cublie speakers he may chance to hear, than our neighbor, and yet he could not make a speech half as easy as he could make a "whistle out? t . . .. ! oi a pig s tan. . White Water Collxok. We invite attention to the advertisement of this institution, published in another column. Mr. Jocelyn Las boen elected President, who will devote his almost entire attention to the College. Of the quahucatious of Mr. J., it is unnecessary to peak. IU has been connected with the College for several years, and ur people are so well acquainted with bis abilities that the an-J sounoement that he has been placed at the head of the institution, will commend it to public favor and patronage.

pames. Un jnday niht ol last wecic, two valuable horses were stolen, a few miles north of this place, one from John Meredith and the j other from Enoe Thomas. The most vigilant ' effort have been made for the detection f the thieres and the recovery of the horses, but up to this time no information has been obtained from either. Companies for the detection of each thieres have been formed at Hillsboro. Newport and Williamsburg, in this county, mDa jt would be well if others were organized, The company at Newport have passed an or der offering a reward of fifty dollars for the apprehension and conviction of any thief or thieves stealing from a member of that or any not one bas been seen or heard Irom. I his should arouse our citizens to activity in the matter. Who will make a move in the matter? Since writing the above, we are informed that Mr. Thomas has recovered his horse. It is supposed that the horse had given out from hard travel, as he was found in the woods near Greenville. The Wuxelkr Slave Case. We publish on the first page an article in relation to the extraordinary decision made by Judge Kane in this case, in which are cited the adverse decisions made by the highest Judicial tribunals of this country and Europe. This decision assumes stronger ground than slave hold ers themselves have heretofore dared to take. but since it has been advanced by a northern jU(ge, it win no doubt be Wily approved by the most ultra advoca'e of "state rights" doctrine in the south Since the committal of Williamson to prison, great efforts have been made to induce him to procure by some means the former slaves of Wheeler, but he firmly persists in the de termination never to make the attempt to deliver them into the hands of the slave-catchers, even should he be compelled to remain incarcerated the balance of his natural life. A writ of habeas corpus was applied for in behalf of Mr. W. to Judge Lewis, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, but the Judge declines issuing the writ on the ground that it is unsual to give the benefits of this "great shield from oppression," in cases of individuals committed for contempt of courtThat decision whether according to usage or not, we would respectfully suggest, contains the very essence of tyranny and would be very appropriate under a monarchy in the darkest period of the dark ages. Williamson has also been arrested, together with the colored persons wh assisted the slaves of Wheeler to escape, for being engaged tn a not.' forming the slave-woman that she was indeed free by the laws of the land, and could leave her master whenever she pleaded. The slave catchers hope to induce Mr. W. to bring forth the rescued slave to testify in his behalf. But in this they will surely be disappointed. Gov. Wright cpoh the Subject of Slave rt. We find in an exchange the report of a speech recently made by our Governor, in which he defined his position upon the great question of slavery. We have had some doubts as to the correctness of the report, for a more shallow, not to say heartless, illustration, we have never seen. One would suppose from the Governor's opinion, that there was and is no principle involved in tlve enormity of human slavery that it does not influence the prosperity of the North that it is no disgrace to our professions of freedom, and that all we have to do in this world is to "take care of ourselves." We know this is the motto of certain politicians, but such would have been strange doctrine to those old patriots and freemen who declared that all men were created equal. But to the extract i from Ihm tiQTArnnr cnaach V m h.a rv... 41. 13 not a true report: 'His views upon the subject of slavery could be given in brief. The south has no .. A . 111.

The nomination Oar Ticket. ' At the proper place will be found the ticket

far countj offices, nominated on Saturday last, The selection was made by a popular rote of, the members of the Republican party, and by a large rote, which should indicate, to a great extent, the will and wishes of the party, The ticket is composed of gentlemen who have long been citizens of this county, and are known to most of our citizens xcey are known to be well quali6ed to perform the duties of the offices to which they respectively 'aspire and have been nominated, and will doubtless be elected. Seldom has a ticket been presented to the ! people more worthy of their confidence. They have not been selected to please the old liners, but we challenge even from them the closest scrutiny of our candidates. They are moral, upright, consistent men and gcod citizens, just such men as all good Republicans should be. Success to the ticket. Although there is no special political principle involved in the election of any one of these officers, yet their success or defeat will influence a succeeding election in which will be involved a political principle, as dear to Americans as the constitution itself. It therefore becomes necessary that no effort should be left untried to insure success. The old liners are now making an untiring effort to succeed, in the hope that they may, by counting certain votes, foot up a majority in the State, and thus secure the influence of that strength in the next Presidential election. Old Wayne will not contribute to that capital. The following is the aggregate vote received by each candidate in the county: Forjudge, 1 3th Judicial Circuit. J. B. Julian. 766 N. II.

Reeder. The council adjourned and repaired to the house, to witness its action on , the resolution. The house at once lesolved itself into a committee of the whole on the state of the territory.

They greatly desire the rtmoval of Reeder, yet tV, (,.rU maw Vi nTnmntH tn some other office. The burden of their distress seems to be a fear that Pennsylvania will elect him to the U. S. Senate, and that would be very galling to their feelings. It is very evident that these psuedo legislators are in trouble, and how to get out is the question. It is true they have the necessary majority to pass everything over the head of the governor, but they would first have to present a bill to him, but since the union is dissolved between them, they cannot do so. What can they do but adjourn till they see whether the president will accede to their wisher? On leaving the legislature, we called on the governor, and found him with his sleeves rolled up. and very calmly arranging his papers, He seems to be very easy about the legisla - ftiro on H tlimh V h tVipm in a tirht nlace.

I feel it to be my duty to inform the public that my husband, Geo. Smith, has left me, without any just cause; and as it is believed that he has gone off with another man's wife, I desire to warn all womenfrom having anything to do wiih him, for if he will desert one he will another, and no confidence can be placed in him. He is of short stature, rather stout, dark complexion, jet black hair, and pretty good looking. If he has taken another woman with him, as I suppose he has, I shall consider him rather "small potatoes." and never will live with Llm again; but I should hke to see him for about half an hour, just to let him have the length of my tongue and oh! wouldn't I fcive it to him. Anybody who willbrinsr him back, so that he can bav mv .opinion of him, shall receive two dollars of hard-earned money. HENRIETTA SMITH. Mount Holly, July 30. The removal of Gov.

Whether it was the impulse of a galvanized imbecility, ill-judged counsellors, malice or disappointment, we little care. A gross and flagrant wrong has, howver, been perpetrated. The hour has passed when a specious ta'e will deceive the people. No puerile charge of the land speculations can buffet an instant against the storm of wrath which will be aroused. A high minded, honorable, fearless aad determined man has been wantonly and basely stricken down, because he asserted and would vindicate the rights of freemen against a horde of lawless and law breaking ruffians." mmdeT' A number of claimants, on the score of the Greytown bombardment, have arrived at Washington, to lay their claims before the Board, now ia session.

It is true that, believing there would not be time to poll full vote in some of the wards, they made useef every fair means to get in American yottt with all possible despatch; but we deny that any unusual obstruction was offered, or attempted to be offered, to any legal and ordr- , ly behaved voter. 1 ftViA ti mA f hut til A f:lt Via nmflftim .1 I ithont - . , . ,. ,j proiucmiou uccu Bitot. uovu, tuuruciru ii , . , . . . frv;.,iia foreirners. in dik'int and quiet streets of the city, the Americam ' in the neighborhood f the several voting S places at first refused to believe that such oatrafes had been committed, and considered it ! a ruse to draw them away from the polls and ' -- niA-a m r . invrf i nif P t t Vt A Si4 CT " lrfVtt fia fssion J tbe and prevest , AmericmJ, from voting. . u wR on, when tfa woumltjd ,n4 dead of their fellow countrymen were brought , More them an j they were convinced that . . , j . u.i i petrated, that, with cries ot venjjeano po the murderers, they sought mem out aaa V,i,r,t thttm intit tVi bouses that were di- ; .,ed of destroTed.
