WHITE WATER COLLEGE,

This Institution, located at Centeryil'es Indiana
commenced its TWENTIETH term, on sept Sd, 1879,
and has, up to this date (oept ~ more pupils
than during the same period OF any previous
sion.
Rev. Gro. B. JocELYN, 4. NJ, has been placed
in charge of the Institution, and the number of
pupils already in attendance is a tangible proof
from the friends of the College Of the wisdom of
the selection. The Board feel confident that his
experience in teaching, his energy and devotion to
the duties of his position, are a sufficient guar
anty that the children who are placed in the H.
stituton will receive thorough and substantial
education.
Competent teachers have been procured to as
sst the President,-Messrs. A. c. SuoRrRIDGE
and A. G. WILLIAMS. Mr. Williams who is n
graduate of Bacons Mercantile College, viii pay
especial attention to Penmanship and Book keep
ing.
Mrs. C. NJ JocELYS, wife of the President, will
take charge Of the classes in Botany PLY siology
and Astronomy.
The services Of other teachers have been secur-
ed, who will enter upon their duties soon as the
wants of the Institution may demand.
In order to meet the wants of the community,
a Primary Department has been opened and placed
under the of Miss LUCINDA WILLIAMS, an
amable lady and experienced teacher, who will if
necessary. be aided by competent assistants
The Music Department (Which is now sup
piled with three excellent pianos,t is under the
control of Prof JOHN SEBASTIAN MULLER, and
MISS CATHARINE WOODS Prof MULLER ranks
among the best Musical performers and composers
in the West, and assisted by Miss WooDs, this
department cannot fail to give full satisfaction.
The Institution is free from debt, and is unem-
barrassed 1t has fair Library an excellent
Geological Cabinet a superior Telescope and
arrangements will be made during the year to
supply the Institution, rapidly as possible with
complete Philosophical and Chemical Apparatus
Few Institutions in the West afford better opppor-
tunities for parents to educate their and
daughters and the present number OF pupils III
dcates increased prosperity for the Insttu-
ton.

sssT e Kiss, and, out for the presence of
her mother, he had no means of proving
the contrary.
Dr. Williams, of Forty. second street,
related case in which nine teeth were
extracted from the jaw of female under
chioroform. She complained of her head;
said, while under the influence that her
husband was abusing her, and on recovery
placed her hand on the parts she still sup
posed he had injured.
The interest of the meeting WAS kent
up until late hour. We hope we have
omitted none OF the facts. Several Of the
speakers uttered their earnest convictions
oi the innocence OF DR.. Beale, Of Phla-
delphla ; one of them had known him
Intimately sixteen years, and was satisfied
ne was incapable Of the crime laid to his
charge. Many who did not know him
uttered the same opinion. Ons, who
spoke in language as calm as it was
energetic, asked whether the indignant
denial Of man whose life had been spot
less was not Of equal, if not of more
value, than testimony liable, as they had
all seen, to so many sources OF uninten
tional fillaoy:

DR.. Beale's Case.

We give on the out side of this paper the
opinions of medical gentlemen in relation TO
the action of Chloroform. W. found the
article interesting, and believe it will 50
prove t. our readers.
DR.. Bcalc WAS m eminent dentist in Phila-
delphia. lie was Il man OF family, mem =
Der of the church, and respected and
thought highly of by all who knew him.
Miss Nudge, was a young lady who enjoyed
an intim icy with the members Of DR.. Beale's
family. Desiring something done TO her
teeth, she visited d.. Bedl for that purpose,
and now declares he took undue liberties.--
DR.. Beale's wife has published card, in
which she states, rs her candid belief, that
her husband is innocsnt She says he is
too kind to herself and children, to be gull
ty OF the crime. Dr. Beale has been tried,
and sentenced 10 term of years in the
Penitentiary. yet it is thought he will be
pardoned by the Go@crnor The Dcutists
OF New York, as will be seen, are of the
opinion that DR.. b. is innocent Other cir
cumstances have also come to light, confirm
ing this opinio.i, rs the declaration OF Miss
Mudge's husband-she was afterwards mar
ried--which we will say nothing about.

An. amusing scene occurred 10 .Philadel-
phia on "Wednesday, at the Columbia Mu-
scum, in consequence of, suit having
been entered against Miss Richardson, the
"Fat Woman" at the instance of the "Swiss
Warbler" who charged her with siander.
The North American of Thursday says
mr. George Wise, deputy sheriff, went
up to the Columbia Museum, to execute
his writ, and was there met by her counsel
De Witt e, Morris, Esq, who, in reply to
what arrangement was TO be made, replied,
Execute your writ Mr. Wise took a sur
vey all around the the prodigy of creation,
and finally very galiantly told the lady his
errand. She very deliberately. .rvpIied, We
.ry well--l am ready to go-take me- Here
was a fix. George acknowledged himself
cornered; said he would postpone the arrest
till half past two o'clock. Even sheriff
could not arrest and carry such pile. At
half past two o'clock Sheriff Allen himself,
WIN posse OF some twenty five men, and
org farniture wagon, nlarched solemnly
up to the place of conflict, and was there
met with the same serenity and answer tJy
the lady, take me- Il mast. be known that
Sheriff Allen would not himself bag on
more than one hundred aud L fly pounds,
and when met by this calm, information, take
me- looked a good deal Mortified He sur
veyed the eight hundred pounds oil female
humanity from every point of observation
and finally coming to tho conclusion that he
had machinery and power enough to make
the arrest and remove the victim, postponed
the arrest ill to-day, when he is bound to
bring force enough to carry her and her fat
sister (of equal weighD along with her, if
necessary"

A letter from Rome thus speaks of the
ceremony which followed the utterance by
the Pope of the bull on the subject Of the
immaculate conception" The next cerc-
mony was that of crowning the Madonna,
which seemed TO interest the mass of spec

declaration. The procession Of bishc pS
once more led the way to the Cardinals
chapel, where a crimson platform had been
prepared before the alta piece, so rs to al.
low of the Pope,s ascending TO the figure
of the Virgin, MS depicted in the clouds in
