There is i drought in ftengiil, and llii need of ni?rc fain is urgent, liomhay alone promises a good harvest. The Aineric.-n harvest wid ' tie go id in ipiHliiy and amount, hut with the failure of Indian and Itnssian supplies d is I of the utmost importance that the KiijjI sh crop shall not ha slioit.

( Such aa institution speaks well for aay , eople; manifests a noble generosity. a t eouine ps'r utUn. To afforJ facilities for # iiucaiing me young, especially the poor, f isreby placing educatioa wi'hio the ro^ch fall, is a grand and n?b'e work, worthy the , tad and heart of tbe patriot and the chria- , ian.

Education! how important! It istho ?>'/?< qua non of the prosperity, success and bnppiness of every community, .State and county. The celebrated Dr. Johnson beautifully said : Were I so toll to reach tbo pol?, And gra*p the ocean in my span, i mud be measured by iny soul. For l is the viiiul that mokes the man." Fince it is the mind that nnkes the mnn how import?nt that it be educa'cd, the more thorough its education the stronger the amid, the greater the man. Education is to the mind what masonry is to the rock in the ragged quarry. In its rude natural state it must needs receive the polish of masonry before fitted for the great and useful purposes to which applied, and so with reference to the mind, it must he educated, trauied, and thereby iss bidden powers developed and improved before fully qualified for the great duties of life. What countless blessings hare been be t >wed by educated minds upon the human family; ble^-sings failing br"aleast like the gen-lo dews of Heaven ; blessing wliereso- J ever falling, nitd extending like the little rivulet from tiio niountniu's towering height along its winding course through all the gradations of s ciety and circumstances in life. I)r. llenjaiuiti Franklin caught the light nings of Heaven and made them subservo man's noblest purposes. His discoveries at tlip time startled the scientis'8 of the civilzed world, Rut could ho visit our earth at the present tune, he would be astonished to see how little he knew, lie never dreaniol of the telegraph, that intelligence could be conveyed from coii'inent to continent through old ocean, with the rapidity of the lightning flash. What woDdorful discover''es and inventions since the days of Ftanklin! The mighty power of steam has been developed and nmdo to promote the groat purposes of man. The majestic steamer, like a monster of life, rushes onward through surging billows, leaving the old time suiting vessel far behind battling with the winds and waves. The huge locomotive, 1 ke nno'hcr minster of life with its ponderous freight sweeps over mounting, lii Is and vallie*. with almost lightning speed. Railroads ! what blcsings to maukind. Ry them the resource! of a Country are developed, cities, towns, villages, churches aud factories spring up as if by magic; colleges aod schools follow in their wake, tending foith light ami knowledge, bofoio which ignorance vanishes like dew drops before tho rising inn. What, a grand discovery is the superior, prepclliug power and uses of electricity ! Franklin caught lightning as it flashed along the clouds, hut luau, educated man, now gcneia'ca and controls it, making it contribute ta the grc?t necessities of niau. Cars arc now propelled by electricity, np and down hills with impunity. . a?hMiifttf'ltffy,n'H4V"riS)1 jjfonSirtSir exposed, part of the viscera taken away ami the balance replaced with perfect impunity to the gr^ ii relief of sullering liumani'y. What a grand discovery the telephono by which f ersons can crtivcrsc with others miles away as though face to face. Of its mysleri I/..* |Mi?cr iuc mosi sKcpiicat are easily conviuscd as recently shown. A certain gouil?nnnn was skeptical; il?<i not believe tt?o telephone possessed the power ascribed to it. Me was tohl to speak to his wife, eomo miles away, through the telephone. Just then a cloud was passing over. As the gentleman attempted to speak to his wife lightning struck the wire, and con-equontly knocked him over, and rising no he said, "I give it up, f. r that is the way Sat always irreets me." What another grnn-i discovery tlie phonograph, by which music, the human voice, and any otlur sound can he reproduced years afierwarts Had it boen in u?c in the days of Patrick Henry, his irnirort ?1 words, "give me liberty or give me death," cvu!d still ring in our cava witUcxnctly ttioname impassioned eloquence wi'h which tliey weie u'tared. Aye, had ii been in use in the time of Stint Paul, his ant Silas's s?ngi of rejoicing at midnight in the PhilPpian ja 1 cou'd still ring upon our ears in the same triumphant tones in which they fe 1 upon the frightened ja'lor.
