The location Of Monticello Academy Is most de.
sirablo. Alta suitable distance from the villages Of
Glasgow and Charlton for the children from eli.
Their place to attend and sufficiently remote to EN-
brace all the advantages Of country situation It
is well known TINT in little villages, there are hun
dreds Of temptations to allure young persons from
their studies, and lead them into scenes of vice and
dissipation. This should ever be an objection to
the establishment of schools Immediately within n
village, and no doubt does keep many from patron
Using schools. thus located from the very regard
they pay to the moral character of their children
To Monticello no such objections can be urged.--
1t is high, airy and healthy situation, its whole
population consisting of about half dozen private
families Of much refinement, who take deep in
terest in the welfare Of the institution, and who
sincerely cooperate with the principal, to render
his Academy worthy the patronage of al enlight-
ened public The Academy buildings are comfor-
table, and sufficiently spacious to accommodate
more than one hundred students.
In this Institution, learning is of an entirely
practical nature, and nothing is taught that will
not have an important bearing on the usefulness
and happiness of the pupil through life. Hence
attention is paid, not only to the proper develope
ment of the intellectual faculties, but morality is
taught in that only form which can ever prove a
blessing to the world. 1t is here impressed upon
the pupil in ecton with the pure and heavenly
doctrines Of the Bible, an observance Of which, af
ter all the inventions of men, is the only way to
receive for man or woman, happiness in time and
eternity. Would that in all similar institutions,
equal attention was paid to the same all absorbing
and all momentous subject.
Mr.. Lewis is amply provided with room to &C.
commodate upwards of twenty young persons
with board. believe there are also other families
at Monticello, who take in boarders. Those who
board with the principal are quite pleasantly stu
parental character, and in the whole family the ut
most harmony and good feeling prevail. In con-
GLIDING these hasty remarks, l would bespeak
liberal patronage for this institution. am fully
convinced that students here will enjoy all the adj
vantages to be met with in any similar school,
either in Missouri or any other State. Mr.. Lewis
seems determined to supply the school with uppa-
ratus, in proportion to the patronage he may re-
ceve to enable him to do so. 1t will then be to the
interest Of those who would have their sons and
daughters we'll taught, and their char acers well
formed, to encourage literally such institutions
as Monticello Male and Female Seminary. The
small additional charge here made to the price of
common school instruction, it will be found in the
end, should never be an objection to an enlight-
ened patron of school.

DEATH OF PROFESSOR DAVIS, OF THE
IININERSITX

DEATH Ot PROt ESSOh DAV 10, VI lHE
UNIVERSITY.
1t is with pain we announce the death of this
esteemed gentleman, the able and accomplished
Professor of Law Of the University of Virginia
He died Saturday morning from wound inflicted
BY pistol shot on the Thursday night previous,
under the following circumstances. Thursday night
was the anniversary of riot which occurred
few years since at the College, and which had been
regularly observed by some act of dsobedience to
the College regulations, among those who cherish
the recollection of the scene, who sympathiSe in
the factious spirit of the riots. About nine O'Clock
there was much disorder IN the lawn, and especial
ind Lightly was offered the Professor by the noises
near his door, he went out to suppress the disturb
ances and came up to three individuals who were
masked. He reached forward to raise the mn SIX Of
one Of them who retreated, and the Professor fol
lowing him up received from him pistol shot
which took efiect-fatal it has turned out to be
but at the time it was not considered mortal. The
ball entered Just below the navel and is said to
have passed around the abdomen down to the tle.hy
part of the thigh, whence it was extracted. The
Professor fingered in great agony until Saturday
morning about O'Clock, when he was relieved by
death.
Two students have been arrested md were exam
ined on Saturday, and the examination was to have
been continued yesterday. One of them had pre-
vOusly absconded but returned and gave himself
up.
The tragic event has robbed society of an orna
ment; and our principal Literary Institution of c
profound scholar and jurist, who has done much
to raise it to its present elevated position.
