AA.-. .__.__ ..._.__,.____.- A... -4 The University of Toronto New that the general elections are. at hand, we beseech our readers to cast aside all party considera- tions, and rally to the Polls in defence of the University. This institution is essentially the poor man’s college; it is here the son oftthe working man can secure for himself :an education which .will fit him to hold the highest po- sition the country can afford, if he has but talent and energy to com- pete for its prizes. Those of our readers who have not. paid a visit to this noble Institution, would do well to spare the time and go to Toronto for thepurpose, they will then see that the money invest- ed is well laid out, and that the building, the museum and library are monuments that will reflect credit on the projectors inall fu- ture time;-â€"-and jwhen Dr. Ryer- son’s assertions of reckless extra- vagance are echoed by those who would aid and abet him in his new crusade, with a view to depriving it of the means of keep- ing up its present efficient staff of Professors, and thereby deprive the University of the power of following up its usefulness, we hope all friends of education Will not allow the present oppor- tunity to pass of recording a public veto against the Doctor's contem. plated spoliation of our national seat of learning. For more parti- Culars respecting this important subject, we earnestly invite the who believe that the Wesleyan Methodists. as a body, are so lost to all‘scnse of the claims ofjustice and expediency, as to join heart and band in the overthrow of a great and good institution like the Uni- versity of Toronto ; but I do believe that many of them have allowed themselves to be misled and deceiv- ed by a few designing and unprin- cipled men, Who desire to aggrand- izc themselves by effecting a change which they artfully "pretend to pro- mote on the sole ground of advant- age to their church; and that the laity need to have their eyes opened to the importaht fact, that these very changes which tqcy have been urged to demand, i accomplished, will be in the end the cause of a tremendous misfortune to them- selves, as citizens of a country in which they,in common with all,hold a ,high ' and important interest. That this agitation which the Wesleyan body is now promoting under the plausible name of ‘ Uni- Versity Reform,’ is not the result of a profound and enlightened convic- tion in the minds of the mass of the church, is plainly apparent from the manner in which :the subject has beerf brought forward by their lead- ers. A resolution emanating from the \Vesleyangministers, in confer- ence assembled. is by no means to be taken as a reliable criterion of the state of feeling amongst the laity of that denomination. Their system of church government being in many essential respects a hier- archy, it is easy to conceive how a few men who happen to possess a preponderating influence in the ge- fiuence to be felt and obeyed, in lllel district conferences, in the subordi- |tiered conference, can cause that in- has fairly begun, and the Government have, ‘ retaking forts, &.c.’ "be-let aims slaveocracy have retreated, would take from their Southern march to She was take“ about sixty miles outside Richmond, the head-quartets of the so- called Southern Confederation. It may be positively asserted that the campaign so far, carried out their proclamatitn in Baltimore, with its lawless band of ‘ plug-uglies,’ and the whole State of Maryland, has been brought back from the revolutionary folds of King Jefferson, the first to the allegiance 'of the Stars and Stripes; and as Northern men liaVe advanced, the cllqult‘OUS we-want-to- after some little. skirmishing, first from Alexandria, and now from Harper’s Ferry, with a view, no doubt, of concentrating the whole of their, forces at Manassas Junction, where it is asserted Gen. Beau- regard has an army of 30,000 men 5- but as the reports are so contradictory, very little faith can be placed in any accounts we get her_eâ€"-â€"every union varying to snob a de- gree, that I am disposed to think that nothing dcfinti’te will be’known until the authorities are fully prepared to attack it. There is one thing certaiu,‘tbat as this is - a very essential point for the rebels to hold, -‘ forming as it does a key to Richmond, and giving them Railroad communication to that city ; there will be a great battle here, provided this chivalrouls: people WILL fight, and not do as they didat Alexandria,-fire and run away.

This is a step in the right direction; for it must be acknowledged by all that the first duty of a free and independent people, is to make such arrange- ments for the defence of their country as shall preserve and se- cure their freedom and independ- ence.

Denisou is before the Electors for West York in opposition to Mr. Howland. Mr. D. will com- mand a large vote ;--â€"his anteced- ents are well known to the electors. He, and his father before him, have ever been among the first to proffer their services when their country’s necessities required their aid. He is a man thoroughly reliable. and who may safely be trusted. IIis address appears in another column. Richmond Hill on the 5th of March last,and l have no hesitation in say- ing, that with the exception of the Rev. Wm. Scott, who is a well known minion and tool of Dr. Ryerson, there was not a member, lay or clerical of that convention, who either knew anything about the subject with which the meeting pretended to deal, or was capable of drawing up a single one of the resolutions which were then passed. The resolutions were all brought from Toronto by Mr. Wm. Scott-â€"J ready cut and driedâ€"and the obsew quious delegates from Markham, Newmarket, Sharon, Barrie, Wes- ton, &c., who had no more hand in conceiving or drafting them than the man in the moon, permitted their names to be paraded in the minutes as movers and seconders. So much for the modus operandi by which this seemingly spontaneous and unanimous action has been palmed off upon the country as an intelligent expression of opinion by j the Methodist community. I purpose next to review and com~ ment upon a few of the resolutions passed at that meeting; after which i shall invite an examination into the real nature of the changes which these agitators would gladly bring about, and of the calamitous’ _/ beenâ€"-â€"better supported by artillery, and a good supply of ammunition, they would have taken the batteries of the rebels, and rented them from their position. Reports speak in glowing terms of the pluck and en» durance of the volunteers. Among the killed was Lieut. Grebel, of the United States Army, who had command of the guns, and was preparing to bring .his pieces off the field when the retreat was sounded, when 51 canon ball struck him on, the back part of his head, killing him instantly; Major VVintliorp, Secretary to Major General Buttler, was also killed here. The Federal troops, under the command of Col. Lewis Wallace, at Bombay, Va., had a sharp codflict, completely routing five hundred secession troops, capturing some prisoners, and taking camp equipage, There are some curious revelations come to the knowledge of the government dur- ing the last two or three weeks. The government had some knowledge that the Southerners had a number of spies in the North, telrgraphing'every information they could gather with regard to military and naval affairs; and consequently unknown ' to anyone, they determined to seize the despa’tches‘in the Several telegraph offices, amounting to some thousands, and it is thought that some persons who profess to be friendly to the government, figure in it to a rather seriOns extent. A Mr. Harvey, lately appointed Consul to Portugal, is im- plicated, and it is reported he has been re- called, and it is very probable that some more officials may be in the same position.
