the legal profession in this country. The fidelity
with which these Reports appear to have been thus

decisions of all the important Courts to period
far within those of any Court in our own coun-
try, together with their cheapness, ought to be
sufficient recommendations to insure their general

Several important changes have been made in
the department of instruction, which will give to
1t greater extent and efficiency, and will render
its advantages available to larger number Of stu
dents. Two additional professors hare been ap-
pointed, one in the department of Ancient Lam
guages, and the other in that Of Mathematics. The
scientific course has been extended 80 as to EN-.
brace practical surveying, the elements Of engi.
neering, and other kindred branches. Young men
who are not candidates for a degree may, under
the direction of the Faculty select such studies rs
are suited to their views and objects in life. and
may receive a certificate of their attainments
therein. Youths who are not fully prepared to
enter the college classes will receive such instruc
ton as will fit them to enter upon the regular col
lege course.
The buildings are undergoing thorough repairs,
and the grounds are being laid out and improved
in manner that will add much to the convenience

NORTH MISSOURI RAILROAD.


It seems that the Hannibal and St. Joseph
Railroad is not yet safe. 1t has an enemy
where it Should look for friendship and support.
Nothing could seem more certain than, should
this road be built, that the trade concentrated
ON it would all be carried 10 st. Louis by line
Of daily packets, connecting with the road at
Hannibal. Yet the Representation OF st. Louis
in the last Legislature tried to defeat the Con-
gressiona grant of land given in aid Of this road,
by diverting il TO another purposes and we are
now advised that another effort is TO be made at
the approaching session Of the Legislature, to
defeat the road by changing the terminus from
Hannibal to St. Charles, on the Missouri river.
This is not only unkind, but unwisc on the part
of the great city of ST. Louis-they fear harm
when there is no danger, and they lay out their
plans, and leave points exposed. Suppose they
ccnlA succeed in changing the Hannibal and ST.
Joseph Railroad to a ST. Charles AMI st. Joseph
Railroad Cannot they see that from 81. Charles
the road could be connected with the most m
psrtaut road in the State of Illinois, while at
Hannibal, they have nothing of this sort to iear'
