In the discipline our teaehers are mild and pa

their services nearly two sessions, consider our
selves fortunate in having secured them, and re-
joice at the prospect Of thsir being permanently
located.
Mr.. Bailey's expenses i preparing for the ac-
commodation of boardersx have been .considera-
BILE, and we sincerely hope that he may succeed
in getting Is or 20 young ladies at " per month.
His building is commodious, his water first rate,
and he will refer to thoskwho have boarded with
him for information with reference to his charac-
ter as proprietor Of a boarding house.
The female portion of the school will use water
from his well, spend taeir hours of recreation
mostly in his house and yard, and be suffered to
be in the male department Of the Academy only
when required by the Principal. Our experience
convinces us that our arrangement will be such
as to ensure to patrons Ahe advantages, and to
protect Thorn from the dsadvantages of having

attempted suicide by jumping out Of two story

bare head against brick chimney. While at this
lie was taken in charge by the Town Marshal and
carried into the Drug Store Of DR.. J. W. GrLIcK.
When brought in, he appeared calm and collected,
took seat and readily answered such questions
as were asked him. When asked if he could see
the blue devils which surrounded him. he replied
that any one in his condition, by looking on n
curtain of va:iegated color7. other similar arti
cIes. conld easily conjure up the most fantastic
forms Of men, devils and demons. But he appear
cd not to be haunted by these ut this time. In
answer 10 the question why he had made the at
tempt upon his own lie, he answered. that he had
been tried for an offence Of which ho was not
guilty. lie said he had never committed q rob.
berry or a murder, although he had been tried
three times, and each time found guilty. That
twice the Governor had saTcd him, but that OIL
