Tia? Cornell University_Ita Peculiar
Fcatarro.
-At Ithaca, New York, the Cornell Uni?
versity is located. This ia emphatically
a modern institution-based upon the
utilitarian idea. The effort is hore made
to combine tifo practical with tho theoreti?
cal. Colleges of Agriculture and tho
Mechanic Arts have been established,
and "the bread and butter soiences"
clearly predominate. The drift of tho
institution is thus apparent. Antiquity
is not the meat upon which the profes?
sorial Cosars fed. It seems to be the
object of the founders of the Cornell Uni?
versity, to show that learning for its own
sake, and learning for tho Bake of the
material rewards connected with it, are
not objects of inconsistent interest. It
has been said, ' 'The mon of letters are a
priesthood." Upon this idea, universi?
ties hitherto have been built. But in tho
Cornell soheme, "it is attempted to build
a cloister round about a factory." We
shall watch with interest tho progress of
this experiment and the development of
this new scheme. We are informed that
. the work will be carried ou uuder fa?
vorable auspices. The professors are
said to be young, enthusiastic, able and
energetic, and will, therefore, give tho
experiment a fair test. The effort is to
carry on at the same time education that
is liberal and industrial-to add general
culture to a course of speoial training.
We are told that Cornell is also peculiar
in this, viz: that it is "unseclariau,"and,
theroforo, "uureligious." Outhispoint,
a correspondent of the New York World
very correctly says:
"To its character as a placo of special
education in which it only pretends
to make exports, this is of uo impor?
tance. But surely no one will say that
it is unimportant to its character ns a
place of general education, iu which it
pretends to develop meu, that the source
and BOUI of manhood should be left alto?
gether out of its aceouut. The old uni?
versities were established for the promo?
tion of 'true religion and souud learn?
ing.' The formula is, indeed, outworn.
But there was no question when it was
enunciated what true religion meaut, or
if theio was, the questioner was summa?
rily suppressed. But every two men you
meot now, will give two answers to it.
And as 'sound learning,' now as then,
meaus tho sort that tends to promote
true religion, it is equally debatable.
The chapels at Oxford tell tho samo
story as the lecture-rooms, albeit, both
may be something musty. In this coun?
try, every sect has its colleges, whore
studies are planned into some sort of
conformity with a spiritual idoa. Even
at West Point, there is a pipe-clayed
piety and worship of God according to
the regulations. But the founders of
this university havo recognized that we
are iu that conditiou when old things
are passiug away, but when all things
have not yet become new. That consi?
deration seems to be good ground for
doferriug the foundation of a university
until the founders have arrived at a con?
clusion about what must be in all educa?
tion, as iu all human transactions, the
chief coruer-stouo. But they have pre?
ferred to solve the problem by rearing a
superstructure and leaving the founda?
tion for more settled times. They have
provided, aud I believe they are admi?
nistering with sigual zoal and ability, an
eduoatiou which will enable those who
receive it, to get on in the world and rise
to tho top of tho social ladder. The old
universities were a protest agaiust, this
is a compliance with, the spirit of the
time. Tho old universities stood for tho
spiritual, and against the material, as?
pect of things. This espouses the mate?
rial side, and shows its studeuts how to
make the very best of it. As a techno?
logical school, its apparatus and its in?
structors insure itsueccss. 'Philosophy,'
Novalis said, 'can bako no bread, but it
can fiud us God, Freedom, Immortality.'
Philosophy, according to the schome of
this university, can bake bread, and,
moreover, batter it, but it is extremely
doubtful whether it can do tho other
things. 'It is easy for tho American
scholar to perceive,' said auothor writer,
'that he lives uot to receive the loudest
plaudits nor to win the richest trophies
of his time. But he lives to utter a
truth.' The Cornell tells him that ho
can do both, or in any case, tho former.
I am speaking, of course, of the perma?
nent purport of the institution, aud not
of tho mauy able aud devoted men who
are at presout engaged in it. So speak?
ing, as a place of practical education, it
is full of promiao, and not barren of per?
formance. But as a university, n place
of liberal study, in whatever ' form the
present perturbation of rcliftiou may
precipitate, ouo is loth to accept as a
finality a university which so far takes
the material view as to leave out religion
altogether and put pul?s of a 'Self-acting
Cataract Wash-tub' iu its examination
papers."
Wo aro disposed to coucur with thc
writer in his conclusion. Doubtless!
there aro many good points iu connec?
tion with Cornell, and it is certainly im?
portant iu every educational sehe mo to
provide for "the broad and butter" de?
partments ns well as for tho humanities;
but how to link together those different
interests is a gravo problem, and we aro
not certain that Cornell bas accomplished
its aim. We cannot think well of any
educational scheme which excludes the
religious element, aud which unduly
magui?es the material. To advertise "a
soif-aoting Cataract Wash Tab in an ex?
amination paper," is currying ont Ba?
con's "philosophy of fruit" a little too
strictly. In our judgment, Cornell may
be of the earth a little too earthy. After
advertising this "wash tub," we would
expect soon to hear of that science which
teaches the students to make cheap
clocks and wooden nutmegs. Educa?
tion should look to those practical studies
which fit tho studont for tho duties of
life, bntsavo us from that kind of educa?
tion which fails to humanize, to elevate,
to reform, and to impress the truth,
that the ends wo aim at should be linked
with thoughts of eternity as well as of
time.
Is history, after all, only a record of
lies? Here comes tho Philadelphia
Ledger, pronouncing tho Fourth of July
all a mistuko, affirming that nothing con?
nected with tho Declaration of Indepen?
dence ever occurred upon that date. It
asserts that accordiug to indisputable
evidence, tho Declaration of Indepen?
dence passed Congress on the second day
of July, John Adams, writing from Phi?
ladelphia on July 3, 177G, as follows:
"Yesterday, tho greatest question was
decided which ever was debated in Ame?
rica, and a greator, perhaps, never was
nor never will be decided among mon. A
resolution was passed, without one dis?
senting colony, 'that these United Colo?
nies are, and of right ought to bo, Freo
aud Independent States.' Tho secoud
day of July, 1776, will be the most me?
morable epoch in the history of America.
I am apt to behove that it will bo cele?
brated by succeeding generations as the
great anniversary festival."
According to the same authority, it
was first published on July S. Writing
under dato of the 9th, he says:
"Tho Declaration was published from
that awful stage in the State House yard,
ou eighth of July. Ou this occasion, the
battalion paraded on tho Common, and
gave us tho fen de joie, uotwithstandiug
tho scarcity of powdor. Tho bells raug
all day and almost all night. Even the
chimes chimed away."
As for tho siguiug, it did not take
place in August 2, 177G, aa shown by tho
following extract from thc minutes of
that date:
"August 2, 177G. The Declaration of
Indepeudeuce, being engrossed and
compared at the table, was signed by thc
members."
There is no meutiou elsewhere in the
minutes of nuy circumstance connecting
tho Declaration of Independence with
July 4. Jefferson is reported to have
stated that ho behoved it was signed ou
July 4, a circumstance McKeau subse?
quently proved could not havo occurred,
because tho resolution had not yet been
engrossed. Hore we are, theu, all at
sea, and without a Fourth of July. Who in
the future can ever skoot off a fire-cracker
or a rocket with any feeling of enthusi?
asm, knowing the "glorious fourth" to
be a base counterfeit? Who can oousole
a headache on the morning of the fifth
with the excuse of execssivo patriotism?
We feel as though a great light had gone
out of history, uow that America with its
ono national holiday is mado bankrupt
even of that.
No man over more thoroughly illus?
trated tho maxim, "Eternal vigilance is
thc price of sovereignty," than Louis Na?
poleon. Although constantly decreasing
his army, proposing peace commissions
and general disarmaments, scarcely does
an angry breath sweep into tho political
atmosphere, but we find him ready to
take tho fiicld ou tho same day with
every possible advantage. So it is in
the present instance. Not two-score
hours flit by after Prussia's intentions
upon Spain became public, but his ar?
mies aro ready to move, his people are
on fire with military enthusiasm, the old
hatreds of Waterloo revived, tho old
glories of tho first Emperor resplendeut.
In camp, court and council tho most
perfeot unanimity prevails, all are ready
to move at tho bidding of tho imperial
nod. Such a spectacle, unparalleled iu
this age, has raroly been witnessod in
tho past.
JONAH'S QB AVE.-I had almost for?
gotten, says au Eastern traveler, to say
that at tho villago of Ninncvah, tho spot
whore tho miraculous gourd grow, is still
pointed out. Tho same spot, accordiug
to Moslem traditiou, is tho site of Jonah's
grave, and a mosque, not very handsome,
has been erected upon it. We succeed?
ed, after a great deal of trouble, in get?
ting au order from tho Pacha to viow
the interior, and greatly to the disgust
of thc guardian of ibo shrine, lie had to
let us in, making us, howevor, take off
our boots, and grumbling loudly that
nevor before had a Christian foot defiled
tho mosque. But wo saw nothing worth
desoribiug. Tho reputed tomb is co?
vered up with rich draperies, which arc
never removed.
Tho rndiculs carry party zeal to thc
limits of absurdity, in prating about cop?

pel, it must in futuro bo regarded as trea?

parents. Tho unborn generation will
please take uotice, and govern itself ac
cordingly.

DECADENCE or CALIFORNIA. -Mr. John
Hill writes from San Francisco to the
New York World:
San Francisco and California are pro?
gressing backward. If jon were bore,
and could see the thousands of men idle
ia tho city, and nothing doing, not a
house building, nor improvements of
any kiud being made, yon would think
it the dullest city in the world at this
moment. Tho Bidletin is ashamed, and
tolls tho workingmen to go in the coun?
try and look for work. I have 6oeu mon
who havo traveled from Upper Califor?
nia to Southern California with their
blankets on their backs, looking vainly
for work. The country is nearly nil
dried up; Southern California is dry up
altogether. No rain has fallen there for
the last fonrteeu months. Cattle nud
sheep have died in uumbers. No wheat
at all in Lower California, aud very little
in Upper California.
Most of tho wheat crop we cut when
green for hay. There wou't bo 100 cwt.
this year for tho ton last year. There
aro thousands of farmers who sowed and
will not have u grain of wheat or barley.
Tho mines aro played out with gambling
speoulators, and au industrious mau
wou't have anything to do in them.
There is more destitution iu this city
and State at this present time, and lins
beeu for tho last year, thou iu any part
of the world. There aro thousands of
fine workingmen in this oity and State,
who can't get a day's work. They have
pawned and sold their clothes brought
from other States, aud have beou Iiviug
on fifteen cents a day and sleeping out in
lumber piles and in bushes outside of
tho city. I have seen thom get up iu *he
morning out of bushes on the outside of
tho city, aud they have told mo they had
not beeu iu a bed for six weeks. Many
expected to cara enough in the harvest
to take them ont of tho State. On ac?
count of tho failure in the crop, they
cau't do it.
There is uot ouc mau needed for a
hundred Becking for work. I have lived
in tho East for thirty years, and never
saw anything to compare with tho desti?
tution of this country. The workiug
men designed gettiug up a petition,
sigued by twenty thousand men, f i
Washington, to see if tho Government
would send aud help them to get from
here. As for tho land of the country, it
is all takeu up aud held by speculators,
so that a mau with small mcaus is not
ablo to settle on it. I am n farmer, aud
have farmed in tho East for thirty years,
and I want to buy a farm here, but tho
laud which is worth settling on is held
for twice as much as it is worth. This
is uo place for a farmer of limited means,
a working man or a mechanic, and, for
tho sake of humanity, I wish this letter
understood, so that mou won't be de?
ceived iu comiug here.
PACK UP.-Moro than ono colored J
man was heard to say ou the fourth in- j
staut, that iu ten years from this time
there would uot be n white person iu j
this State, that tho State bolonged to tho
colored people, aud that they intended
to drive tho whites out. No exception
was made iu favor of carpet-bagger,
scalawags or whaDgdoodles. Everybody
bas fair notice now, and plenty of time
to pack up iu.-Chester Reporter.
