GLENDALE. ONO, May 3lst, 1856.
BRO. GooDwIN:--I observe a notice
in the Amt rican which does not pre-
sent the true state Of facts in regard to
our enterprise in this place, and which
may be an injury to our ms tuition
here. 1t is in reference TO the forma-
ZION Of Male Department DC. The
facts are these: The Female College
Is to be continued as before, and is
confined entirely 10 one sex. We have
rented another building, one forth Of a
mile from the College. which was cree
ted by the 'sGlendale Company" for
Boarding School, but is not now in
use. it's large and beautiful bull
ding containing about twenty rooms,
with school rooms adjacent. In this
we expect to open boys boarding
school earlyin September. to be con-
fined to youth under sixteen. The two
Institutions will have no further con-
nexion than this-lhat the Proprietors
are the same and the Male Teachers
IN the College, will also be employed
in the school. Iexpsc; to live in the
building to be occupied by the boys
school. and have the Superintendent
ofEit, but will also teach in the College
\ part Of the day.
Iwould thank you if you would
make this correction inasmuch as II
may convey an impression to friends
of the Institution that the character OF
the college is to be changed and espe'
cially as a report of the kind seems 10
have been circulated to some extent,
and is liable to do us injury among
some of the friends of our College who
would be decidedly opposed TO any
such change.
OF course you will not regard me as
imputing any blame to you for this
misunderstanding OF things. need
scarcely add that we welcome the
American with as much or even
more pleasure since we have become
citizens Of Buckeyedom than before.
Yours in the bonds Of the gospel.

The Democratic Ticket.

We did intend 10 give an outline Of
character Of the Democratic nominees
but from present indications We shall
have more important matters to dis
cuss. We can say, in short, that tits
better ticket than that party has
been accustomed TO bring out. The
men Except the candidate for Coro-
ner) will all do quite well, aside from
the principles which they represent and
endorse, and we do not desire their
defeat on any other grounds than on
the issues now before the people. o.
some Of them. we could say much thai
is good.

REMrY's RRAPER.--We are no judge
Of reapiug machines. Such things
were not in use when We farmed, But
give us an old fashioned sickle, and
then let him who thinks he can beat
us reaping, pitch in. Mr.. Remy claims
many advantages for his machine over
all others which be can fully explain
to those who will call at his manufac-
tory. We think those who expect to
buy reaper would do well to call on
Mr.. Remy and see for themselves.
