TttftjUy yorninjr, OoWUr J^,Jfgjg, ?I?. ActUk IH1 Vtrfcl?!?/ The new Legislature Of Virginia,'wo ure told, , have adopted tho. fifteenth amendment-adopted it not beoahae they liked it? bat because the faith of the saccoesful party waa - thereto pledged. This is woll, and no reasonable, man will find, causo to criticise on thia account the oondnet ot the "Old Dominion. " In this respect, T^rgffihT wisely yle?ded^ to the foreV.-iff circumstances, and' made tm honorable surrender to power and for?a ?8&wr??eVitt$t?o?*Wevi*w:has well said: "Virginia cannot bo charged with any dereliction of honor. Her battle-fields and her cemeteries attest her fidelity to principles. Her courts, of Anstice the Erey. of adven tarers, her halls of legisla? tion de?l<"* by ignorance and rapacity, her social and industrial interests para? lyzed by radical rule, would render it shameful in any one who had suffered le3? to censure the propriety-of her con ?duct.*' Bnt nOW that Virginia has fulfilled her pledge, and ratified tho fifteenth amend mont, which radical illiberality made a condition precedent to her admission into tho "Onion, let bs trust that, after her admission, Virginia will fib longer submit to the dictation of the infamous leaders of an infamous party. The Rich? mond Enqu ir er. an ci Exami ncr has yield? ed much; but1 that journal feels that 'll can yield i no more, consistently with the honor and dignity and interests of Vir? ginia; and it well says, in its issue of the 7th instant! "There ia a wide distinction between complying with the Acts of Congress on the subject of reconstruction and volun? tarily performing other acts in addition to the requirements of the Federal Go? vernment in that regard. There is a dif forenco between submitting to what wc have no power to resist and voluntarily searching for fresh displays of complai? sance. Our view is that we have accept? ed the Underwood constitution and thc fifteenth amendment because we had nc option in the matter; we have remodelled our internal polity in obedience to ? mandate from a stronger and conquering power. Now, to go beyond this, am manifest superfluous alacrity in appeas ing and mollifying the victorious party is not oaly against nature, but is direpu table and numanly. They have laic down their terms, and it is not deniec that they were severe and harsh in tin extreme; and we shall have performec our part when we shall have compliei with them. "We do not desire to enter the Unioi with.any hypocritical face. It is abso lutely impossible for bs at the South t< enjoy at heart th? process of recoustruc tion, or to revolutionize our social orde in any gashing frame. We say, 'We d< it; and we do it in good faith. Wo aban don our theories and our projects, am returD to the TToioo. Wo return wit! the idea that it ia the government w shall live under, and with the desire b make ourselves happy by making it-si far as wo eau-a good government. W wish to make a substantial peace-am to Icavo it to time to obliterate and t erase the traces of a bitter contest.' "We do not go back into the Union ii the spirit of slaves. We do not propos to purchase favors and benefits by obse ?nions and servilo demonstrations 'hank God! wo stand erect, as thos who have nothiug to be ashamed of, nm .who have- not had the opportunity t learn how to 'bend tho pregnant hinge of the knee.' "The preservation of this spirit w know very well is not railroads nor pluu der; but it is tho preservation of our ruc and of that without which lifo is cou temptible, and the comforts of life voi of satisfaction. Preserve tho brave fearless, manly temper of the Souther people, and you save from the wreck a our fortunes the most precious gem thu sparkled in the crown in our days c prosperity. For railroads, and turc pikes, and bridges, and aqueducts, di not eave Rome when the immortal spiri had been attacked like 'a worm i' th bud.' And therefore the cry for materit development per fas aid nefas-at an sacrifice of feeling, honor or principle - on the ground that the days of principle like the days of chivalry, are ended, is deceptive ory, and a most flagrant falh cy. We want all these things-materit development-but we do not want thei by any dishonest courses-we do nc want any 'ill-gotten wealth.' "They tell us, 'Conciliate the Govert ment!' 'Do this-do that'-'bend tl knee here-now there!' 'Lo! the Kin comes! falldown and worship!' &o. Toac our people this philosophy, and we are rained people-then in deed and in t m t a ruined people. "Is there no danger here? Or is warning in this direction merely a top for mockery-and the raillery that 'Ye are too slow?' "There are persous who are nervQusl alarmed even now that tho State will m be admitted-and they say *G-t up-ac let us dance-they liko to seo us danoo oh, do let us dance!" "Well, wo are tired duueiug. Wo t not wish to execute ono extra step." We fully conour in the spirit of the remarks. The Enquirer ?nd Evaniin may now well say to our Virginia friend "Thus far should you go, bul no /arther Among tho details of tho late storm Maine, it is mentioned that Phillips v l?ge was entirely submerged* the wat roaching.the second-story of the house uud "that a Cemetery was washed or scattering skeletons and hones along t road. * Responsible for Its Critical Comilit?n. We regard il manifestly inoorrect to ?nX^? the Sato |? sostain' tJ?r own tstltutiorjs of-ftarnfbgr^ri? resp?nsi bility rests with the Board of Trustees. For a long time the press of tho State was silent. The election of Dr. Mackey naturally broke tbat silence. Now, we hayo, here, nothing to say in relation to Dr. Mackey'? private character; but this we do say; that his political course-his bitter political spirit-had made him es? pecially unacceptable to that class in the State from whose ranks tho students for the University wer? necessarily to come. It is true that Dr. M. promptly declined, and thus did a very sensible thing. But the an t?ntes of the Board Bhowed itself, "?r was thought to show itself, In Dr. Mackey's appointment. That waa the net of the Trustees, which gave the Uni? versity a serious blow. That was the dose from which the University yet suf? fers. But this is not all. Tho Univer? sity received its first blow when tho pre? sent board were olectetk ' Wore the sen? sibilities of tho friends of the University regarded when t'wo colored tuen we^re put ou the board, and when Messrs. Moses, Kungie end Robertson-'three supposed enemies to the institution were also elected to places in the board? Nor is Mis nil. We ask, and ask point? edly, why were the board silent all the summer, when the prospects of the Uni? versity were canvassed? When no si ugle professor knew but that lie would be turned out nt any moment, why were the board mute? When doubt and uncer? tainty hung like clouds over the Univer? sity, why did not the board dispel thc clouds? No; they kept silent. Whens word from the board might have given assurance to the patrons of tho Univer? sity, they chose not to speak that word. Wo have no disposition to do the Board of Trustees any injustice in this matter. With us, no political prejudice influences judgment. We charge the Hoard of Trustees with the responsibility of the sparse attendance at the University, on account of au act of commission in the appointment of a most objectionable man to n professorship, and on account of an act ot" omission in failing to give such a notico to tho State as would have led the friends of the University to seek its walls. Failing in this duty, it ill bo oomes the board now to seek to shift the responsibility to other shoulder?. <-??-> - THANKSGIVING DAT.-The following proclamation has been issued by the President: The year which is drawing to a oloso has been freo from pestilence; health hos prevailed throughout the lund; abundant crops reward tho labors of the husband? man; commerce and manufactures have successfully prosecuted their peaceful paths; the mines and forests have yield? ed liberally; the nation bas increased in wealth audio strength; peace has pro vuiled, and its blessings have advauoed every interest of the people in every part of the Union; harmony and fra? ternal intercourse restored are oblit cring the marks of past conflict aud estrangement; burdens have boon light? ened; means have been increased; civil and religious liberty are secured to every inhabitant of the land, whose soil is trod by none but freemen. It becomes a people thus favored to make acknowledgment to the Supreme Author, from whom such blessings flow, of their gratitude and their dependence, to render praise and thanksgiving for the same, and devoutly to implore a con? tinuance of God's mercies. Therefore. I, Ulysses S. Grant, Presi? dent of the United States, do recommend that Thursday, the 18th day of Novem? ber next, be observed as a dayof thanks? giving and praise and of prayer to Al? mighty God, the Creator and the Ruler of the Universe. And I do further re? commend to all the people of tho United States to assemble on that day iu their accustomed places of public worship, and to unite in the homage and praise due to tho bountiful Father of All Mer? cies, and in fervent prayer for the conti? nuance of the manifold blessings He has vouchsafed to us as a people.

A MAN KILLED BY A H?HNET.-A co lor?d man near Yancey ville, while fallow? ing land a few days ago, stopped his plow to molest a hornet's nest; ono of the euraged insects made at him and stung him in the temple, probably penetrating an Srtery. Tho poor fellow gave np the attack and laid himself down in the cor? ner of a feuce, and in ooe half hour he was a dead mao. [Milton (N. C.) Chronicle. A HIGH OLD JAIL.-A Barnwell cor? respondent of the Charleston -Yews says that when a prisoner is tired of confine? ment, he whacks "old Toby," tho negr? jailer, over the head, and coolly fnakes his escape.

When a negro . stalled, or a negro student npplios and is matriculated,.Theu-will be the Mme to gire tbe Faculty, studentsjpnd patrons of the University lessons* in propriety, should they stand? iu need of such in stmctiou. Had tho press been silent, we boliove thurn would now be near sevouty stu? dents at this institution. The Courier and Charleston News, of last Friday, have artioles, the aim of whioh appears to be to crush the Univer? sity. (Has Charleston any Colleges with which tho University interferes?) I have sent some who are now students. Why .should they bo called "Gov. Scott's pets?" I think it the duty of the citizens of this State, and especially the doty of tho.se- who can afford to send their sous abroad, to patronize oar own Colleges. The University is not dead yet; und, gentlemen of tho press, if you will please keep silent until your censure or publica? tion of rumors will not injure the object of your solicitude, that time-honored in? stitution may recover from the harm you have already, I hope inadvertently, doue. JAMES' H. RION. Mn. EDITOR: The editor of the Charles? ton Courier, in an article referring to the University, stigmatizes the students as "Governor Scott's pets," aud basely insinuates that they are not the "sons of South Carolina gentlemen." We, the students thus scurrilously attacked, ask for a piuco iu your paper for a reply. Wo have proferred entering nnd en? deavoring to suBtuiu tho University, with its able Faculty, to leaving our native State in ordor to obtain the opportuni? ties of n liberal educutiou, which we have had in tho past, and would have in the future, were it not for such contempti? ble articles as that of tho Courier. Afraid to imputo dishonorable motives to the professors, kuowing full well that his missiles would rebound to his own discomfiture, ho vents his spleen upou tbe students, congratulating himself that he is making n bold display, without tho possibility of a retort. But wo oro ".sons of South Carolina gentlemen," in? heriting the old Caroliua spirit, and wo spurn his dastardly insinuations with the utmost coutempt, both Xor tho article and its author. No negroes have boon presented to the Faculty for admission, and tho rumors which have been circu? lated to that effect are false. Nor are the statements that tho majority of the students are beneficiaries true; there are only four or five beneficiaries in the in? stitution, and an attack made upon those gentlemen could only emnuatu from one too much their inferior to deserve notice. The fact that the majority of the former Faculty have remained-and certainly they compate favorably with those who have reslgued-is suf?oient assurance that tho high tone of tho University will be maintained. We entered the Uni? versity to complete our education, not to outer tho political arena. Our purpose here is education, aud we deeply regret to have to depart from our duties to vin? dicate ourselves from insinuations, dis? graceful alike to the paper in which they appeared and the pen from which they originated. To auch insidious attacks as that, the downfall of the University, if it ever comes, will bo attributable; and if this grand old institution must fall, the editor of the Courier may be assured tbat his influence, if ho has any, has oontributed to that result. Nor need he imagine that the people of South Caro? lina are to bo deceived by his representa? tions; the situation of the University witt be known, and the knowledge of its position will not reflect any credit upon the Courier, which should have been its friend, but, perhaps fortunately for our reputation, has become its bitter enemy. Many of our young friends have been deterred from entering with us by tho false and unfounded reports which have been circulated to the great injury of the University; but we are satisfied that in a short time our number will be aug? mented by tho "sons of South Carolina gentlemen," and the University will suc? ceed, notwithstanding the miserable arti? cles of the Charleston Courier. THK STUDENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY. GIVE THEM A DICTIONARY.-At a late meeting of the Charleston City Council, says the Courier, Alderman T. J. Mackey, in the courso of his remarks on tho peti? tion of tho Commissioners cf theMarkot, said, that "if tho .bed of tho cistern bo sank below tho tide level, the salt water will percolate by tho force of rotricular attraction through tho metamorphic lime stono or the brick." Whereat ono Alder? man winked; another looked bothered, and a few laughed. Aldermau Greene moved that several oopies of Worcester's or Webster's Dictionaries bo purchased for the uso of Council; and Alderman Smalls, who seemed to think it a good idea, opened his month for the first time in the evening, and grinned out, "I se? cond de motion." These are some.of the pleasantries of Council meetings. At Oldtown, Me., on Sunday night, Charles Martin, aged about fifty, under? taking to go through his house in the dark, mistook the cellar door and fell down the stairs, fracturing his skull nnd killing lilmaelf instantly.

The coroner's jnry, which has been in business for several days at Indianapolis, has deoided that the State Fair accident was caused by the carelessness of tho en? gineer, who happens to be dead. Of course this act will cause the friends of the tweuty vietims to cease mourning. THE CONNECTION COMPLETE.-The con? nection of the Wilmington and Manches? ter Railroad with the iron railway bridge at Meares* Bluff was finished yesterday. This now renders the connection of the three roads centreing at this point by means of the railway bridge complete. [Wilmington (JU. C.) Journal. A tremendaous gale and tho highest tide ever known destroyed much proper? ty in New Brunswick. Tho amount of damngo is incalculable. In the small parish of Sackville alone, the loss is esti? mated at over $1,000,000. This storm was predicted by Lieutenant Saxby, of the Royal Navy, last December. Despatches from Mexico City to Sep? tember 23 state that a revolution bad broken out iu Potosi, and Col. Macias has been defeated iu au attack on tho insurgents. The Governors of Coahuila and Nueva Loon had proveuted the Go? vernment troops from entering their States in pursuit of tho rovolutiouists. A nigger in North Carolina, convicted of stealing a mule, made a speech to the court, in which he acknowledged that his downfall was caused by associating with carpet-baggers and other radicals. This is terrible, but then tho nigger might have known better than to asso? ciate with such people. Fi HE AT PAYNE'S FARM.-About half past 9 o'clock last night, the alarm was given of a fire in tho seventh ward. It was tho house of Mr. Wm. Schneider, unoccupied, the owner living in tho city. Tho house was burned, loss estimated nt about $1,500; insurance 81,000, in the London and Lancashire Company. Tho fire, it is believed, was tho work of an incendiary. - Charleston Courier. CEDAR SPRINGS INSTITUTE.-Superin? tendent of Education Jillson has recently paid A visit to Spartan burg and examined the buildings at Cedar Springs. He ap? preciates Ibo necessity of providing for tbe wants of the blind nod the deaf and dumb of the State and, it is said, will re? open the institute os soon ns the neces? sary repairs on the building can bo made. The repairs will bo pushed forward under the supervision of Senntor Hoyt. Loss OF A VESSEL.-The ship Dread? nought-which made a ten days' passage across the ocean several years ngo-while on the passage from Liverpool to San Francisco, with a valuable cargo, was lost on the morning of tho 4th of July, on Cape Penas, near the island of Torra del Fuego. The orew escaped in two small boats, saving none of their effects and not n mouthful of provisions. After se? venteen days' wandering, they were res? cued by a passiug vessel. The Hebrews and Quakers, says the New York Times, have the most sys? tematic arrangements for relieving tboir poor. Every Jewish synagogue has u committee of the most respectable mem? bers, whose business it is to become ac? quainted with tho condition of every He brow in tboir district, and, if necessary, to afford assistance. Tho aged are pen? sioned, and the disabled plaoed in hospi? tals, or furnished with regular relief. AH a result, the genuine broad-brim nod Judaic nose is never seen at tho world's back door begging cold victuals. A duel is in prospect in Warrentou, Va., between Col. John Mosby, the Con? federate raider, and tho Shoriff of Fan tinier County appointed by Gen. Cunby, Federal Col. Wm. Boyd. Mosby, it is saiil, caused grave charges to be preferred against Boyd, who, in return, made slan? derous remarks about the raider. Last Saturday, Mosby and Boyd met; and the latter approached Mosby in a threatening manner, the latter Baid, "Sir, I am un? armed and a smaller man than yon, but I am willing to meet you where life can be perilled equally against life." Boyd, in? stead of desisting when he heard Mosby was unarmod, attacked the Confederate chieftain in an unjustifiable manner. Tin result has been that Mosby challenged Boyd, and tho lutter is said to bo ic trouble about a second. TUE ROTHSCHILDS PROPOSE TO NEGO TIATE A LOAN TO ENABLE THIS GOVERN MENT TO RUY UP TTS ENTIRE LIABILITIES, It is understood that the Messrs.

THE STATE A?IUCULTURAL MECHANICAL BUILDINGS.-Tho notion of the City Council of Columbia, in obtaining the necessary funds for providing the accom? modations needed for the State Agricul? tural and Mechanical So-iety. will be approved by tho tax-paye?o generally.
