Washington College.

We are pleased to learn that our friend Alex
ander l.. Nelson, Esq, late resident OF this
county, and at present temporary Professor OF
Mathematics in the University Of Virginia, has
been elected to the chair of Mathematics in Wash
ingtou College at Lexington, made vacant by the
resignation of Major Hill. MIR. Nelson is grad
nate of the College and also Of the University,
and is eminently fitted for the position to which
he has been elected. We know of no young man
who has risen so rapidly, and whose native tai
eats and ripe scholarship augur more suspicious
" for still higher elevation. We understand
tina, he was warmly recommended BY the Facul-
" of the University, with whom he has been as
socatsd for several years past, some of whom fur
nished individual testimonials of his high moral
character and eminent scholastic attainments, In
addition to the united recommendation Of the Fac
ulty.i : t;', ," Aa \
We are highly pleased with the policy a.
dOpted by the Trustees of Washington Colleges
in selecting our own young men to fill the vacant
proessorships Of their Institution. the other lit
erary institutions in the State would pursue the
same course we have no doubt the result would
prove the wisdom of the policy. Certainly there
is no good reason for importing Professors from
other, and generally Northern States, to take
charge of our schools and colleges. when we have
gentlemen in our midst, equally if not better fitted
by character, habits and requirements for the man
agenent and education Of our youths.

Conviction and Death OF Gardiner.

:; The trial Of DIR. George A. Gardiner, which
has been in progress in Washington city for seve-
raj mouths past, was brought to a. close on Friday
last. 1t will be recolected that the prisoner OBJ
tanned 1920, 900 from the Government on the
false pretense, it was charged, that certain silver
mines in Mexico, in which he was interested,
were destroyed during the late war. When the
charge was frat made, Gardiner was in Europe,
ssd forthwith returned to this country with the
air of an innocent man TO stand his trial. The
Government sent commissioners to Mexico to en-
quire into the existence Of the alleged mines, and
different and inaicting reports were made, The
jury, however, pronounced Gardiner gnilty, and
he was sentenced to ten years imprisonment in
the penitentiary at hard labor.
The Washington Globe states that the prisoner
was much depressed as he was handed to the Gus
tody of the Marshal and taken to Jail. After
reaching the Jail he was taken with commissions
it was thought at the time from the effect OF the
distress of mind under which he was laborng, bu
on medical assistance being called it was discov
cred he was under the influence Of powerful poi
son which soon terminated his life.
There were other indictments pending agains
DR.. Gardiner, and also against the brother of thu
prisoner, for false swearing, by which the none,
was obtained from the Government. His counse
intended applying for new trial and it wa
thought that it would have been granted by tn
| Circuit Court.

Upset.

On Friday night last, the Richmond stage
sspszed atthe foot of the hill this side of Fish
ersville. 1t contained six passengers, three gen.
tlsmen and three ladies-one Of them with an In
FAINT. Fortunately none of them were seriously
injured.
We cannot conceive why it is that passengers
are compelled to be squeezed into uncomfortable
stage-coaches, and dragged at snail's pace from
the terminus of the railroad to Staunton-a dis
lance of twenty-five miles--at the peril of their
lives. when the railroad is now ready for the cars
between Waynesborough and this place. If. as
we have heard, the proprietors of the stage line
refuse to carry passengers across thspountain for
less than the present charge to Stannton, why
cant the railroad company carry them in their own
conysyances2 Certain we are, that everybody
would prefer riding from the terminus to Waynes-
borough in an ox-cart, and from WaynesbOrough
to Staunton on wood-car, at considerable ad-
vance on present rates, to sncA chair breadth
escapes and moving incidents" as we experienced
an our voyage last Friday night. We should be
disposed to talk louder and longer on this subject
iii we did not anticipate an early removal of pres
sent difficulties, BY the appearance of the "iror

before any court, or justice ofthe peace, from any

The disease of which Mr.. Blair died, was Typhoid
Fever, from which he suffered several weeks prior to
his dissolution. During the whole course OF his sf1ic

those amiable virtues which constitute the pleasant and
affablc associate
Although MIR. Blair had in earlier life embr.ced
the Christian Religion practically, yet he led life OF
unexccptonable morals, and within the last year OF bis
life gave much serious thought to the Ito him) all ab.
sorbng subject OF personal interest in the merits Of
Crucifed Saviour. He professed a most unwaveyisg
faith in Jesus Christ to his latest breath and having
called his wife aud children to his bedside gave them
his dying counsel and advice, bidding them each az
