~. Is, 1t is very desirable that pupils from
distance should hoard i'm the family; as Mrs.
shelley Will thereby be better enabled to promote
.heir Improvement during the hours not devoted

DO more convenient to board elsewhere, good board
can he procured in genteel families, and on accom-
modating terms.
Having for years past enjoyed the benefit of
Mrs Sheiiey's school, we have from our residence
ana our relations 10 itas patrons, had the most ann
pie opportunity of forming correct estimate of

ers, ana tho mo,herly care and vigilant circuu,-
sP.0ioh WIN which she supervises the conduct
and department of her pupils, are worthy of the
highest commentator. We have often witues.

her scholars at her examinations. We are &C.
aainted With no institution where all the parts of

UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA.

The Board of Visitors of this institution on
Monday elected a Mr.. Courtney, (of West Point,
we believe,) to fill the vacancy in the Mathema-
tioei department, occasoned by the resignation of
MI. Sylvester. OF MI Courtney we know no.
thing, (never having heard Of him before,) and we
therefore say nothing but we must be permitted
to express our deep modification that the appoint
ment was not conferred upon Pike Powers esq,
who has long been known 10 our whole commune
~, and acknowledged by all who know him, to
be most eminently qualified for the station. Not
only was MIR. Powers abundantly qualified in all
respects, but he has filled the station both before
the appointment of that foreigner Of "grcat emil
s,ence an the scientific soorid," Mr.. S., and since
the resignation OF that gentleman, with the high
lest degree OF credit to himself, and to the entire
satisfaction OF all connected with the institution.
Apart from This, he is gentleman of the true
Virginia grit, whose worth is equalled only by his
modesty; and from his intimate knowledge Of the
manners, customs, and peculiar temperament Of
the youth Of the Southern country elninenily qua
sihed 10 win them into the paths of science, and
70 conduct them, both profitably and pleasantly,
through those paths. Why, then, was he not APP
pointed They, who know more of the matter
ing to that mania for erotics which has been the
bane OF the University heretofore. He did not
como from ''parts beyond the seas" nor from the
North side of Mason's and Dixon's line. He is
Virgnian---niere'y VlRGINIAN, and cannot. tIe,e-
fore, fill professorshp in the Yirginia Unver-
sity Beshrew such pestilentnotions ("f ankee
notions" to booty say we. The history of the u
University itself abundanty proves that intellect, of
indigenous growth, is as vigorous as any that flour
!. ishes in the soil of Old England, aye, or of New
England, either.
But enough. We have not said all that we
feel, but fully as much, perhaps, as we ought to
say.
Wherever Mr.. Powers may go he carries with
him the unanimous testimony of this whole COM
munty to his exalted worth as man, and to his
eminent qualifications az teacher.

TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 10.
MEXICO AND TuE u. sTATEs


The correspondence between Mr Webster and
the Mexican Government occupies much of our pa.
per this morning. The letters. here published, to-
gether with others from General Thompson, were
laid before both Houses OF Congress, last week. In
the Senate. the firm, but moderate tone Of Mr.
Websier's reply to tho insulting letters of the
Mexican Secretary, was commended very go,
Morally. There cannot we'll he two opinions
as TO the justice Of Mr.. Webster's structures
upon the Mexican despatch. Theonly doub, is as
to the pFoPriety Of noticing the letters at all as
they came through accredited source-and Tor
any thing known to the contrary, may net Ia ,sgsiy
them-and then our high dignitaries would look "a
Their sheepi'h, after tilting against shadow. We
do no, doubt but they are genuine productions-ii
they be not they very good counterseits Of the
staggering illusions OF tho Provisional President
but our Government has no official evidence OF
the iact-and. therefore, il might have prudently
foreborne 10 notice the letters.
