111 fll S . ^ From the Ncwbum Spectator. Hon. U. L. Pine hire's Address.?A friend at Chapel lliSI has favored us with ? copy of the Address written, and intended to be spoken, by Mr. Pinckncy,before the two Societies at ot.r- University. As a hterary composition, tbo Address is any thing but perfect, or such a model in ihfe respect as should be offered for the imitation of the vocUi of tho University. There arc in it, I mutter, some beanliful flights of fancy, \ some truly eloquent passages, and the infos*j (ion throughout seems to be to direct those before whom it was read to the path of lioiior and of duty, although the advice and exam* pics are in some cases, not well chooser). There are in tbc Address a seeming want | of connexion, a grouping of incongruous ideas, and a laxity of grammatical rule,; which we did not expect from a gentleman of Mr. Pinckney'a reputation. Nor is this i * alL There are in it sentiments which are j condemnable, as subversive of right, and' promotive of tbat restlessness which is uni*! - * 1? Tt. A;,.r: lortniy inc precursor 01 anaruuy. * u? vmvi, ground of thb charge may be found in Mr. PincUncy's allusion to the land-jobbers' war in Texas, and in various allusions to the Au/ thorV favorite doctrine of Nullification.? What man of regulated mind and good cehse would bold up that mercenary insurrection, the aim of which b taw le as robbery, and tbotneanp characteristic of the end, as a noble example of virtuous men struggling for liberty. What other roan would have b id i the hardihood to place so disgraceful an cxatn- j pic before the youth of our University, as a! noble effort in the cause of rational iibcrty,! and worthy of imitation? Uear Mr. Pincknrr, Jest vc misrepresent, him. Eren in old Spain; the spirit of liberty ] heaves and throes, though Pclion his been j piled upon Ossa to crush it to (he earth; and > at this rcrv moment, it nerves the arms, and j animates the hearts of a gallant band 10 a neighboring territory who with ihr tru noblentss of the Anglo Saxon blood, bare firmly rewired to achieve their independence, or to perish in the effort.

And may wo not trust thai ihe period is near at band, when the people of Texas shall indeed be our brethren, and when the chorus of freedom shall- reverberate from the Hudson to the Sabine, and from the banks ol the Colorado to tbt heights of Bunker! Have tm done the writer injustice in our condemnation of bis offering the war of cu-; pidif j now waging in Texas as an example of brave men contending for their rights! We think not. While bj tells the young gentlemen that they may weep over the scenes of the Alamo, where a few of the invaders of Tens perished, he offers, as a cause of virtuous and moral rejoicing, the destruction of nearly eight hundred Mexicans, who fell irbdc fighting for their country! Wc really cannot understand the distinction as the ' writer intends k to be understood, and wc coodcnm, with all tbo strength of condom- < nation, the inculcations of such principles, and of feeling* so erroneous and tudiscrimi- ' mating, in the minds of the youth of this State.

The claims oT CleavcUnd, Shelby, 11 Setter, afid BTDowell, with those of die': brare North Carolinians whom they led on , i the occasion, are too d? ar to as to bo laid ,' aside by the breath of Mr. Pinckncy, nn*uv ! tamed by facts that warrant hi- unguarded < assumption.

It [our fcdcratito system] may have defects, but they are spots in the sun, almost invisible in its radiance, and not worth the trouble! pf detection Whatever, therefore, may be the defects of the system, of the errors or abuses of authority under it, let nothing strike at the ciitlrr.ee of ihr government it- j set/. Dofects may bo remedied, abuses corrected, all minor crds may be eradicated or1 endured; but destroy this Union, and who can rebuild it? Dismember these confederated States, and who can sort them from irreparable ruin7 Extinguish this light of the Republic, that now guides the efforts and nnini.itys tho hopes of suffering numauuj, ia other portions of ihc globe, and " where's the Promethean heat that can this light re* j lutncl" Bear with me, gentlemen, in the o.Tprcacton of these acntimcms. IJo assured it is not tuprrjiuous trr unnumary. The, language of disunion has Income too common.

From the Xe? York Journal of Commerce. THE SURPLUS-REVENUE. "Much has been said about the evils 01 a large National debt; but if the experience of the American people is to be lakcu for any thine. the evils of a largo surplus revenue arc slit! greater. So sensibly arc these crils felt at t/ic present lime, that we arc persuaded another session of Congress u ill not be sutu red to pass away without an effort to reduce the revenue to the actual wants of the Government. So many articles of import arc already doty free, that the process may be difficult, without infringing upon 'the compromise:* but difficult or not, it must be accomplished. One method which we are inclined to think will be resorted to, or at least urged upon the attention of Congress, is a reduction of the price of public lands to actual settlers, limiting of course the amount which each settler may purchase at the reduced rate. Such a measure would abate liic eagerness of speculators, ami thus in two ways I diminish llic amount of revenue from the public lands. Hut a!i the reduction which can be cOccicd by such a system, unless carried to an extreme which we should entirely disapprove. will fall far short of bringing the public rcrcnuc within the requisite limits. The next step ought to be. to inquire through a Committee, what further reductions or repeals can be effected on articics not coming in competition with home manufactures; and the nxzt, what reductions can be made on articles which dt come in competition with home manufactures, consistently with the proper protection of the same. This branch of the inquiry might properly be refcrcd to the Committee on Manufactures, who w ill very po??ibly conclude, that a more rapiJ reduction on sundry articles than is contemplated by the present Tariff, will I.a kniin, .ft if,g% n luilit #Vif ilii? tnanufaelii* ring interest, than the sweeping icduciion which, if the "compromise* is rigidly adhrrfd to. will inevitably lake place in 15*42 There nil! be many, hoivcrer, both in and out of Congress, who will deny the right of one body of legislators tobiw! their successors iu a matter purely legislative, and not partaking of the nature of a contract, as in the ease of a charter for which a targe bonus is paid. These men will ix: for proceeding without reference to the compromise, and for slashing away upon the Tariff until the revenue is reduced to the desired limits.? And unless the Tariff men are prepared In make liberal concessions, this parly will become predominant; far, at soutc rate or other the accumulation of surplus revenue must be slopped, and thai speedily. Its collection from the people, by ait indirect and almost imperceptible process, is , one of the least of evils, which it brings, ?; It is however an evil, and one which being entirely unnecessary and useless, ought ; t? be remedied. After it is collected and . j placed under the control of the Govern-{: incut, it becomes a still greater nuisance. 1, What is the fact at this moment? Why, { | thai the Govcrnmcot has claims upon; { Jiffereoc Banks, more tlian equal to all j, ilie specie in all (he flanks in (he United I, Slates; and every dollar of these claims 1 j it possesses the legal right to draw out | in specie. The consequence is. that all , die deposit Banks in the country, ami j :>ur whole financial system, and the ( properly of every man and woman in the , nation, are in an important sense, at the, j mercy of the Government. By a single , itrokc of the pen oxn man. (ami he not , ipl to stick at trifles,) can break half the , Banks and half the merchants in the land; ran revolutionise property, trausfcring ( that of men in active business ami mod- j prate means, to tbe hands of overgrown \ capitalists who alone can withstand such | riisis, as it is in the j?oucr of the | tJorcrnment to produce. We do not say | it is the wish of the Government, or any }, member of it, to use the power urnicb ( they possess, for the destruction of the , monetary institutions of the country j and the immense interests there with con- | ncciod;?if we thought so, ore should not j hesitate to add, that the fate pointed nut , 1 " 1 *?

Bui without any intention in the case, a Government wedding euch icemen- j doits power over the business concerns of ] the country, may do incalculable mischief, and if uisposed to try experiments, will most assuredly accomplish it. We might , crrn allow that the (internment wrre , in every way eoinpelrnt to manage the , most complicated financial affairs, and that they had fulfil their duties connected with the surplus revenue, ns wisely an?l skilfully as men living could Jo, it would be impossible to manage a floating capital of 810.000.000 or 850,000.000, without causing the most serious incontinence to business men, who rely upon a stable currency and a quiet stale of the money i market as essential to the prosperity of their concern*.

The perpetuation of such a system would do more to corrupt public men thoiralmost any thing .else which could be invented.

From thatr it appears that our Legislature was assured by at least a quasi repi csenlatfvc of South Carolina, that the Charleston and Cincinnati Rail Road, must ileccsarUy rnter our State on this side of Blue ride, and so deeply convinced were the lenders of t^iat measure of this fact, that they foreborc to make any legislative provision on-ihe subject. We hold then, tnat the attempt oi Mr. Calhoun and others, to carry its location on the margin ??f Georgia, and thence down the Cower, is net in good faith. We hare perused Col. Elmore's letter to the Editor of the Carolina Gazette, ais > the remonstrance of the Richland Delegation against Mr. C's plan; and wc intitc the attention of our Legislature to the necessity and propriety of providing that no part of the funds of North Carolina shall go in aid of the work, unless the fair and equitable understanding ol our citizens be carried into cflcct in iu location: viz. unless it shall come into our Stale this yUc of the Blue ridge. The work will certainly be of small importance to us if it only cuts through i sharp angle of our Slate, not yet acquired from the Indiaus: we cannot therefore be blamed, if wc withhold our contribution j to its accomplishment. We hope our Lc-I -.:n i e ,1.:- ;n gisiaiurc >iiii n am iruui una 'x>i| iu making joint charters with other States ? to take care and guard the interests of her citizens with legal provisions, and not j learcail to the magnanimity of the others. j We have no idea that Mr. Calhoun** scheme will ultimately prevail, but the j mere agitation of it is enough to learn cs a lesson of wisdom. ?????? ] Prom the Boston Gazette. Steamboat Incident,?On Wednesday, the steamboat Providence made a passage from Providence to New York, ainid one1 of the most violent gales of wind that hare ristcd the Hound these many years.

While the gale was piping to i its almost, an incident of thrilling interest occurred which it may be well to reIsle. One of the tipper state rooms was occupied by Miss Clifton* the actress, and her servant?the next one by Mr. Coster of New York and another gentleman? and the farther one at tho stern of lhe{ boat, by two respectable young ladies bclitn.tnf* In itiinalnn i n ftri* Slila Wlttl*.

It may lead, ihcui somewhat to regret their abscence, when J they learn what excellent and uninlerrupi ted health our city has enjoyed during thai ! lime, but they will not regret to see that even the intensity of a summer's sun has not interrupted cititer labors of more immediate utility, or works of taste cud elegance. The will be gratified i<? seeing (hat our railroad to Nashville has been rapidly progressing; that it has penetrated through the swamp in th? rear of Canal street; that it is making clearances on (he borders of Pmilcharli&in, and driving piles for a passage over the neck of the Bayou Manrhuc. Nor, while this colossal work has Lccn advancing, have the great contributors to the beauty and symmetry of our city been inactive. The two hotels and exchanges, those great ornaments of the first and second municipalities, arc approaching their cnroplc' lion; and that the Muses arc preparing to Lake, nut as heretofore, a transient and temporary, but a fixed and permanent station in the neatly completed pediment of lite Sl Cbartrcs' theatre.

In writing to those in whom we hare confidence, we throw our whole soul?all our feelings and views. Indeed, when letters thus interchanged, are collected, and chronologically arranged, they may not only form a lest of intellectual character, but serve to show the various steps in the process of cultivation, by which an individual arrives at eminence in literary attainments. This is most decidedly the ease with respect to the correspondence rf Mrs. Hemans, which, in our opinion, forms the marrow of her "Memorial*."
