« In this Island twelve years ago, Education was but a feeble and sickly plant, receiving little

The Re- port is, jydeed, miserably deticigat as regards the supply of information touching one of the most important jaterests of the Colony—in fact, there

lack of excuses fu its absence. It is not, how- ever, the want of details which displeased the Tory party; but it is the contrast which the Visitor has drawn between the state of Edu- cation under the old Tory regiwe prior to 1851 and that uuder the Free System inaugurated by Mr. Coles, with the hearty support of the whole Liberal party, in 1852.

Let us first notice Mr. Arbuckle’s excuses for!

not performing his duty.

He informs us that during the summer of 1862 much of his “ valuable time” was devoted to the selection of candidates for Scholarships in the Princes of Wales College, and that be was conse- quently prevented trom visiting schools. We sre well aware that Mr. Arbuckle had something to do in the selection ot scholarship candidates, but the little he had to do consisted in examining a few rough country buys at Suinmerside, Gearge- touwa aud Charlottetown, devoting to the service only # small portion of one day in each place. His next excuse is, that ip the early part of the winter of 1862, the roads were very bad, and he had to discontinue hia “ visitations for a time.” We do not remember that at the beginning of the winter of 1362 the roads were worse than in for- mer years,— but when the cold weather was pretty well advanced the roads got worse, and then we had the general election ; aud who, then, was more indefatigable in tramping over rough roads and smashing waggons than the School Visitor, who could not, for the life of him, visit a

FROM THE SOUTH.

A gentleman of this city has furnished us with a copy of the Daily Journal, published at Wilmington, North Uarolina. It is dated dune Sth, and was brought in a vessel which Jately ** ran the blockade.’’ In reference to the ** banishment’’ of Vallandigham to the South, the Jowrna? says :—

Hon. C. L. Vallandigham, of Ohio, haviog been arrested, tried and condemned by mili- tary authority, was marooned—thrust forth, exiled by the head of the usurping power, Abraham Lincoln. He was sent to the Coa-| federate lines under a flag of truce from! Rosecrans, about as great a ruffian as the Lincolnite service contains, and that is saying a great deal.

Tt seems that our authorities refused to re- ceive any flag of truce for any such purpose, and so the honorable gentleman was dropped between the lines like u foundling deserted by his unnataral parent. Rather than that buspitality and common humapity should be violated, Mr. Vallandigham was allowed to enter our lines, as an unfortunate, appealing toa brave and generous people, pot as a convict coming under Lincoln's Mag of truce. It is thus, we suppose, that he now stands and wishes to be understood as standing to- wards the Confederacy. Lie is with us, but not of us, among us in person, but absent in spirit. Soften the matter as we may, his position is a falseone. Give Mr. Vallandig- ham all the credit we may, we yet think that his continued residence among us would be an error and even worse. it would hardly be fair to press too far upon the hospitality and generosity of a people and a government whose right to separate existence he as a citizen of w country at war with us, denies and opposes. It would hardly be prudent or, right for Mr. Vallandigham to take up any | lengthened residence at the South, when he | bas the world before him where to choose. | Having once allowed him inside the Confed- | erate lines, neither tue people nor the authori- | ties of the Confederacy, nor of any State of it, would seek to expel him, or otherwise control his movements, unless by some action of hie own he reuders & resort to such a course | necessary, and we have uo idea that Mr. V.)

will be guilty of anything not honorable and |

| becoming.

No one can refuse their admiration to a man who has stood up, as Mr. Vallandigham has done, against the vulgar tyranny ot the present Federal administration, nor withhold | their sympathy from a man suffering in such | a cause with manly firmness. But our ad-' | miration tuo freely shown would injure him, |

aud oar warmest sympathies find too many, objects at home to permit them to expend) themselves upon merely speculative objects | abroad. In other times the suggestion of the| press that as a matter of propriety, Mr. Val-| landigham should take up his abode for the time being in some foreign land, would sound ehuclish and inhospitable, now it is liable to no such reproach,”’

The Journal also contains a ‘* catalogue of imported goods sold at auctivn, on Friday, 29tu May, 1863, at Wilmington, N. C.,”’ from which we make the following selec- tions :—
