Tlio course of study for the term was carefully but briefly reviewed, nod tho prompt nnswers of the pupils left uo doubt upon any mind present that Mr. Uaird possesses the happy faculty of maklug all his instruction plain to the comprehension of his scholars. It affords us pleasure to epeak thu highly of this time-honored academy, whoso halls havo educated so niuuy of the mothers mid daughters of Spartanburg, and we indulge tin ardent hope that its influence may l ng be felt, iu the number of its pupils, the thoroughness of in struction, aud in the intelligent, useful, nnd virtuoui lives of its graduates. GOV. MEm' ADDRESS. Tho address before the Female College, as pre' viously anaouaeed, was made, in WofTord College Chapel, on Tuesday evening, by Kx-Gov. J. II Mcaus. Wo have never seen so large and faslr ionuble on audience within these walls, drawn o? well by the peculiar nature of the occasion as by the high reputation of the eminent speaker fur a witchery of eloquence and ripeucd intellect. We have not time to attempt an abstract of the speech, ns oar paper must go to press to save the mails, and therefore can only remark generally thai hia theme was female education and its influence. He was earnest and truthful in indicating her proper sphere, and assigned to her equal intellect, greater moral courage, more delicacy and tenderness of organism, higlter impulses of religion and virtue, and an almost omnipotent influence in moulding diameter and influencing man. The speech abounded with flue quotations and illustrations of tho several positions assumed, and these, under the magic of the richly-inodulated voice ol the speaker, were rendered with the most pleating and thrilling effect. We wish very much that out memory was retentive enough to give in full the eloquent passage dcscriptivo of the perversion ol the sublime genius of Byron through lack of mora! and religious training. It stood out upon the mora! htudscnpe an alpino argument in favor of retigioiu culture. Bui we must stop, however anxious to give oom? idea of the beautiful address of eur moat worthy exGovernor. It wus a signal success, nml long will the speaker be remembered with affection by those lie Addressed?who Ly their applause showed they had hands with hearts in them, uium IrmuRY socirtv. The Valedictory Address before tho Calhoun Literary Society of Woffoed College was delivered ?n Monday evening, in the Chapel of that institul on, in presence of a brilliant audience, by ffs M. Martin, of Riohlaud. Tiw theme?"LIto is real?life is earnest?and tho grave is nut its end" ?was solemnly yet beautifully aj?propriale, as a parting admonition to tho graduating class, and an incentive to renewed effort and improvement to those yet lingering within the academic halls. As o composition, Mr. Martin mud his friends may well be proud of his success, wliiU t'le delivery blended impassioned oratory with the most touching pathos. That portion addressed to the members of his society wus peculiarly emotional and effective?touching a chord that vibrated throughout tho vu.*t assemblage. The Society address to tho graduates was pro uounced by Mr. Win. Wallace Duncan, and wai not the least interesting part of tho exercises Marked by propriety and solicitude, tl?? authotiln' tivo representative of lht)?!.ftihry society indicated tho duties lyiog before those whose separation win so near, and urged upon them n courageous dis v-1.m <ro of 2life ohlicrnlinn* mt.l nnriw.a. u nf !if?? ** tliat honor might be reffected back upon their almc l.iattr and the society.

I wits rnniorcd that suclt demand had been made bj France, but England did not join in the silly claim Very recently a spirited discussion took place or this subject iu the British House of Commons l?rd Hamilton inquire J if the Government hmi demanded reparation for the British property destroyed. I?rd Pulnicrston replied in tho negative and said that tho law officers of tho Crown had given tho opinion that such a demand could not he sustained. A discussion thereupon ensued, in which Messrs. D'fsroeli, Boebuck, and others, du nounced the affair as an outrage, nud insisted tlial the honor of the British flag ought u? have been maintained. Lord John Busselland others defended tlio Government, and the subject was dropped. % COXIRRCRIKNT SIMMS. Tho commencement sermon of Woflbrd Coilegi owing to Um? inability of Bbhop Pierce to fill th appointment, on account of hla episcopal duties, wi delivered iu Die College Chapel, on Sunday moruin iaat, by his father, the venerable Dr. Lovick Pieru to a vary large and profoundly attentive audiono f Dr. Plerceiu over aeventy years of age, tall, slraigh and vigorous?enjoying a green old age. lib ba is gray?not white?clustering thickly upon a hea denoting great intellectuality, with a promineut <i< velopment of the organs of perception, as laid doer in phrenological science. lib eye bfull of beuevt lent fire, and reveals tho earnestness of the goo old man in the cause to which his life has beeu 4< voted. A writer in the Advocate, who lately hear r Dr. Pierce for the first lime since 1830, says "h f appears to have the same vitality and nniinalio - now that lie had then?voice and action just tli i same. He is somewhut grayer, but with thut er I ception he appears as did the Dr. Picroe of 1830. r Without previous knowledge we should hnveguew t cd the ngc of the Dr. to be about fifty-five?so fu * and sonorous is his voice, so erect his carriage, an I so strengthful his g<*ticulation. Ilis remarks on this occasion were predicate (we believe) upon part of the 21st verse of the lOt Chapter of Mark: "Quo thing thou lackcst: g thy way, sell whatsoever thou host, and give to ih * poor," &o. The practical nature of thfa teat of Seripturo plair ly indicated that it was no part of the preacher aim to treat bis auditory to a literary disquisitiona nu-ro moral essay?lacking the trne elements i vital godliness. Hut he left no doubt on th's sut jcot, by speedily nnnounc>iig the intention to delii ' er just such a sermon as he would preach at camp meeting. He redeemed his promise, and i discussed his-tliemv ns to convince his hearers tht j. the loug years of his minbtry and an cnrucat piet had not only revealed to hint clear apprehension < truth, bnt familiarized him with the siren lullubit I which rock tho soul iuto false security, until spirit ual ossificatiou supervenes, and the heart become hard as the nether millstone. As most of our read * crs liavo frequently beard sermons based on this |ior lion of scripture, wo shall content ourselves will remarking that tho speaker was effective, carm-si I and faithful. Tho paternal counsel of this veinra ble man of God fell with grateful influence espe cially upon those to whom it was primarily address ed, and wo doubt not that memory will ofteu recu to it with varied emotions, as iu after life it cithe becomes a savor of life uuto life, or of death unt death. Interested in every thing that has the slightest re lution to tho welfare an J prosjienty of this inslitutioi of leurnitig, we repaired to tho Methodist Cliurol on Sutiduy night, for tho purpose of hearing Rev K. II. Myers, of Charleston, who had been aeleet ed to deliver the commencement sermon before th Foranlo Collego. Such occasions ore invested will unusual interest from a multitude of advcniiliou oircuinstuuces, but from no consideration mure thai perhaps tho fact that suoh discourses are usual I filled with wholesome counsels, appropriate adnw nilions, and inciting encouragements. Such wa eminently the o iso with the learuud and sUborst serntou of tho Editor of the Christian Advocate Accustomed to wield u pen of grace and otrcnglhto analyse systems of morality?to detect and ex pose what is fair and Ircaaliful in nil moral tlteorie as we'd as what may bo erroueous, when brougl to tho touuhstoue of the great standard?the Bibl ?we expected to hear a discourse free from objet lion, beautiful in all the odorniuga of language, a well as grand and symmetrical in all the proportior of an impressive, well timed, and well-directed pri doction. In many of these essentials we were not dii appointed. Tho sermon was characterized by cloar philosophy touching our mental constitulioi and the fruitful principle from which chaructt emanates. The groat theoretical verity that tli principle of love, ehastcnod by religion, elevated I the higher objects of hfe spiritual and life lempora is tho great cou'rolliug, dominant principle, was s prominently evoked and handsomely portrayed i its many phases, that we fell that a direction of ou love to tho "things of ths world" was apcrversio of its holy power?a misappropriation of its vit; energy. This sublime principle was tho theme enkindlin tho discourse, and so inajestto were its claims t objects in the skies above?so imperious its demanc ' upon all the nobler objects of life below?that eac incurs a heavy responsibility in its cultivation an ' proper direction. IIow sadly is it prostituted in many casts! H ' illustrations of modish life, fashionable customs, an ' social conventionalities, with which the discount 1 abounded, impressed great and important Icssoni and were full of inexhaustible instruction. To catimulo 0 man by the grace of his step?h observance of the formal rules of etiquette?li ' thppnuoy in discoursing upon the merit* of the due and last polka?his admiration of the light lit< rntui of soma novelist, *iiictured with infidelity--his repet tiouoflhc stcoud-hand wit of the wine-board,or t! gossip of the Inst fashionable circle-is a real charaett istic of the present age. Yet these element* of th character of a fashionable gentleman?these indie< of high social position?arc points of our uubouudc a 1 miration in this age. How important that w should estimate such light accomplishmentspmpcrl ?treat them as secondary to every thing that good, desirable, or valuable. Yet these au thousand other like graces are the charm of societ ?tlis attraction of the age. Against these p>pula follies the speaker declaimed. Against these ninbi t'.ons ho waged a war. Such polish ed discussions of lO 'ial murks mu1 do good, or else clearness of thought, simplicity t style, succession of argument, are useless ugeiick in effecting suoli results. We thiuk the style < I oratory less worthy of imitation than the thoughts^ safe preservation. It is, however, such a style as w might expect from one whose daily vocation abjurt declamation?whose constant pursuits Jo not enjoi tile cultivation of oratorical grace*. To speak el foclively, in oiner an 1 voice arc as essential i; matter methodized and compactly prepared. 'I'll ono give* point auJ impress to the other. I the warm car of the taste, the ono is everything to tho oolJ ear of the intellect, the other may b pulutable enough, but it want* the rich seasonin and acute la to of n strong voice, mid a free, unr? strained manner. We conclude, however, by remarking, there wt a great warmth of feeling and an earnestness in tli manner and tones of tho speaker that showed hi own heart was not untouched by the themo u which he was treatiug. Tho address, as a whole, was sigualized by wealth of suggestion, a compass of thought, and plainness and richness of style, that bespeak a rip scholar, a cltor thinker, and a strong writer.
