“The Great Head Centre Said to be He of the refusal has been to institute a oomparison between the patriotism of the Pre- sident and the radicals by no means flatterinx to the Senators concerned. Tax Apmission or CoLorano 4s A State.— The admission of Colorado Territory into the Union as a State has been passed upon afiirma- tively by Congress, but the measure has not yet received Executive sanction. The admis- sion of this Territory as a State would have one good effect—viz: it would relieve the United States Treasury of the expense of sup- porting a Territorial government. The United States now pays the expenses of the Execu- tive, Legislative and Judicial Departments of Colorado. We pay its jurors and enable the Territory to carry on its government without expense to itself. All the people of the Terri- tory have to do is to make the laws, and the federal power provides for (héir enforcement. Under such a state of things it is very singular that a people so meagre in numbers and so sparcely settled over a large Territory should desire to assume the expense of supporting a State government barely for the honor ot being represented in both houses of Congress, Ii would not tend to promote the development of her mineral resources, abundant as they may be; for it is a curious fact that where these de- velopments have been the richest in the gold and silver bearing regions, they have all been more abundantly so when new States were in the condition of Territories. Lt is so with Cali- fornia, and it is partly so with Oregon and Ne- vada. The gold production of California les- sens from yéar to year, while the production of the precious metals in che Territories of Colorado, Montana, Idaho, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona is continualiy inereasing. It is true it is reported that new and most import- ant discoveries have justi been made in the southeastern corner of the State of Nevada— called the “Pab-Ranagei” distriox—but it took some time, and, we believe, a fresh survey, to ascertain whether the new EX Dorado was in the State of Nevada or in the Territory of Uiah. It is apparent, therefore, that the fact of becoming a State does not facilitate the development of the pre- cious moials; but on the conirary is caloulated to introduce a class of politicians looking after offices in the State and national governments, to demoralize the mining class, and to inspire the hardy and intrepid adventurers and pros- pecters with an ambition to obtain fat govern- snont offices instead of unlocking the treasures that lie hidden in mountains of granite and quartz, The circumstance that Florida, Kansas, Oregon, Valifornia, Nevada and other States were admitted into the Union without baving the constiiutional number of population should “mot be cited in the case of Colorado; for although she may be rogardod as the doorway through which all travel and freight from the Mississippi basin to the eastern slope of the Sierra Nevada pass, it should be remembered that the buik of this travel und freight pasacs beyond her borders to the richer placers and ‘more numerous populations. Colorado was doing very well as a Territory. We hardly think she would benefit her people or promote her genoral interests by assuming prematurely the expenses and responsibilities of a Siate government.

The Union Theolog CELEBRATION OF THE THIRTIETIL ANNI APPROPRIATE BXKRCISHS—NAMES OF THE GRAD- UATING CLASS, ‘The (Mirtieth anniversary of the Union Theological Seminary was celebrated last evening in tho Mercer street Presbyterian church. A very largo and highly re- audience assembled to participate in the cere- monies, which commenced shortly beforo eight o'clock with an eloquent prayer by Rev. Albert Barnes, of Phila- delphia. Mr. Thomas Crowther, of this city, ono of the graduating class, read the first address, entitled “ Civil Liberty, the gift of Calvinism to Man," which was a jJearned and labored argument in support of that aaser- tion. “The Gontribution of Heresy to Christianity," the next address, was delivered by Mr. Edgar V. H. Danner, of Manstic\d, Ohio, who in eloquent and flow- ing sentences contended that the present exactness of Christian creeds and faiths is due in @ great measure to the coutroyersies of heretics, Mr. Joseph F. Gaylord, of Norfolk, Conn., delivered an address on “ Christianity in its Relation ta the Intellectyal Provres4 of the Race." Tracing the rise of Christianity from the earliest ages, he traced its influence on the moral and intellectual nature of mankind, and from the history of karo] proved that science and art can never flourish and universally poplar among slaves and heathens, The progress of al! nations in Christianity had aly sys been arked by a similar progress in intellactual attainmonts, traced the manner in which reason and science have led so many of the superstitions of the dark ages, together have travelled—the two great powers, Chri anity and intellectual progress, puri’ying and enob- ling the human race. r. Philo F. Leavens, of Berkshire, Vt, then spoke on “Knowledg», its Ultimate Vatue.”” Beginning by imagining a humun being to be in possession of all knowledge, he contended that it would be but vanity unless it contributed to something higher in the way of personal power and holiness. Pow. er doos not consist in dom*nating over the weak, but in controlling for good, aad in that connection contrasted Alexander with his brute force, and Viato with his energy of soul, Man must have something cise to do exoopt to use power; he must be holy, and as knowledge would g've men power, 80, used aright, it would also make them holy, without which their lives would not be spent aright, ‘he Union of the Infinite and the Finite, a Moral Un‘on,”’ was the subject of the next address, aud was delivered by Bir. Charles Van Norden of thi city. ‘Tho subjct wasSMly treated, and a'l the addrses wire much superior to many which have been delivered at former anniversaries of the seminary. During the even- ing some cholee music, both vocal and instrumental, was farnished by the graduating class ‘and also by tue choir of the church. Rov, Dr, Shedd, on behalf of the faculty of the institution, delivered an address to the graduating class, speaking t0 them at great length of tue matter, the manner and the spirit of their preaching.

The Thirty-cighth anniversary of thin society place last evening atIrving Hall, and was very largély attended. The services were opened by an organ volun- tary from Dr. T. F. Allen and prayer. The hytan, “Blow ye the Trumpet," led by Mr. Lucias Hart, next followed, and was sung by the audience in a stirring manner. From the abstract of the Thirty-eighth annual report of the society we glean the following particulars: — ‘The Board, during the year, have appointed or made appropriations to sustain chaplains in Norfolk and Bich- mond, Va; het ny N.

Colonel Meoting—Bleeckor by Report Devru ov Coroner Contix,—Yesterday morning about seven o'clock Coroner Edward Collin, who had been ill for several works past, died at his late residence in Fifty; Cighth street, near Third avenue, His discase was soften. ing of the brain, Mr. Collin was frat olected Coroner in the fall of 1461, and, after sorving out his term for three years, was re-elected in the fall of 1864, Ho was well qualified for the office to which the citizens of New York had twice elected him, and he discharged the duties to tho satisfaction of all concerned. Coro- ner Collin had been an active politician for many years, and during the life of Henry Clay was an ardent admirer of that great statesman, Since the organization of the republican party Coroner Collin was a firm supporter of its ciples, and was elovated to office by that party. For the last two or throe years he was Vico-Preaident of the “ Americus Club,’’ com- posed of promis politicians of both the democratic pro ea nh parties, Whose summer resort is Green- wich, Conn.

The introduction of the violincello as « solo instrument was a new feature at this concert, Mr. F. Borgnor, of the Phillarmonic Society, played on this instrument two tantasias, by Strausky and Franchommo, with expression and power. Mr. George W. Morvan gave the @annhauser March in a style which deservedly brought forth an encore. He then played the Toll Over- ture, and was again encored, The jnsatiate audience wore content with letting him off the third time with his fantasia on ‘‘Homo, sweet home.’ OF the vocal pieces, the bost and most tolling was a descriptive piece by Moyerbeer, called the “Monk.” Wo have never beard Mr. Jules Lumbard’s voice Ww such advantage as in this fine bass solo, Tho many conflicting passions that convulsed the brain of the kneeling Cistorciam votary were portrayed by bim with dramatic effect and power If he would study articulation and distinctness more, ho would removo the only objectionable feature im bis singing. Tyo war song from Eli was well rendered by Mr. Castle. The grand trio by Rossini, sung before in this hall by the same artists (Mossrs, Castle, Campheil and Lumbard), concluded the concort.

Morensi, who made her decut on Thursday in. tho part of the Gipsy, is an Amer.can by birth, and has the inestimable advantage of youth in her favor. If by no means a finished artist, she possesses a voive of better than average capabill and a large fund of dramatic energy. That she exagge- rates at times, and is at times apt to fore ber voice @ as to detract from its naturally fine quality, is true; but her general conception of Azicena is good, and her carnest- ness springs trom an anxioty to do well, which dosarven and obtains recognition. here were some striking nts in her reading of the descriptive seena, Siride la Yampa, while the duet with Manrico, which follows, was good trom first to last, Happily, Signor Mario was more like Signor Mario on this occasion than on that of which we had recently to speuk, and bis acting alone in this duet would have in- cited to emulation even a less experienced. partner than Mile.

She has never given the showy cavatina, Tacea (a notte, 80 woll as the other night; never thrown such feeling into the broken ejaculations of Leo- nora, on bearing the voice of her lover from within the prison walls (AA! che la morte); nover displayed such Teal energy—real because sponianeous—in the spirited duet with Di Lana, which comprises the incident of the swallowing of the ‘poison, and leads to the fiual catas- trophe. In the last and finest scene of the opera, com- prising the duet which terminates with the death of Leo- hora, the itapassioned progress of which is arrested by tho accents of the sleeping Azucena (to which Mile, Morandi gave admirable point), Mile. Fricel was equally to be Hh sed—Signor Mario beyond praise. Altogether, indeed, this performance of Il Trovatore waa one to bd agreeably remembered. La Traviata on Saturday night brought with it two ew comers, & 0 and a tenor. Of the tenor, Sige nor Fanceill, we may say at ones (hat lis pretensions are not high, but that what be does he does well enoigl to prove himself no novice.
