~Hon. DAVID ToDp, Of Columbia, died on
the 9th, in the 73rd year Of his age, The mem
bers of the Fayette bar held meeting last week,
and adopted the following:
WHEREAS, in the order OF an all wise Providence,
death has removed from our midst, and from
the places long familiao TO us, as the scenes OF
his usefulness, our professional brother and
highly esteemed fellow-citizen, the Honorable
DAVID ToDp, the pioneer of our profession IN
Central Missouri, himself the immediate des-
cendant of one of the pioneer settlers OF Ken
lucky; the oldest, with a single exception,
lawyer IN the State; Judge of the Circuit Court
Of Howard county, from the year 1919 until the
year 1886; and subsequently,, until within few
years proceeding his death, leading member of
our bar, we. his former associates. some OF US OF
forty wears standing, assembled here in order
to give public and durable manifestation OF
the high esteem, in which we held the deceas-
ed in his life time. and of our great respect for
his memory now that he is removed from US
forever, do Resofre,
l. In the death Of Judge Todd, at mature old
age, the community is called on to deplore the
loss of one, who, during long lite spent in their
midst, conducted himself IN all his public re-
lations, a citizen and ms gistrate, TO command
the highest regard and respect of his fellow citi-
zens, and whose course of life in the more tender
relations of husband and father, and of friend and
neighbor, secured TO him the strongest attachment
and fondest love of all with whom he stood in
those intimate relations
3 In the death that we now deplore, our pro-
fessIon is deprived of member, to whose long
life, both official and professional, we NAV always
point with pride and pleasure as n ornament to
our profession.
3. Although we deeply feel the loss Of our
friend, with whom we have been so long and in
timately associated in the discharge Of our pro-
fessional duties, we can not be unmndful that his
bereaved family feel still keenly the loss of
him who stood 70 them in the more tender rela-
tons of husband and father, and whose whole
course of life IN these relations marked by so
much kindness and affection; and unexpectedly
tender to his family our coincidence and sympa-
thy in ths their grent bereavment.

Inc sehols OF the country are closing their

ions and Exhibitions are the order of the day.
The examination of the scholars of the Male
SCHOOL, nder the supervision Of Messrs. War;
Cox, I this place, took place last Thursday,
which v were prevented from attending BY bus
mess engagements. Those who did attend, how.
ever, gle good account of the proficiency of the

which has not been the case for wears.
The examination of the pupils of sElm Ridge
Academy also took place last week, with cred
itabieresults TO Teacher, Pupil and Patron. The
Exhibition at the close of the exercises, was en-
pertaining and novel. The Essays of the young
gentlemen indicated deep thought and,weil trained
minds. Tie. colloquial and dramatical part Of
the exercises were highly amusing, and most OF
the characters were acted up to life. DR.. SAN.
BORN and his accomplished Lady deserve great
credit, not only for a good evenings entertain
ment and instruction, in which the proficiency
and talent of the pupils was set forth, but for their
personal aid and assistance. The Glasgow Brass
Band filed up the intervals with excellent music.
A correspondent, in to-day's paper, notices the
closing exercises of the school more at length.
The Examination of the Scholars of the Female
Seminary commenced on Monduy, and close with
an Exhibition, this evening.
Our duties were such that we could only give
these interesting exercises an irregular attend
ance. We were highly gratifed, however, to OBJ:
serve that our citizens generally took more in
terest in the occasion than is usual with them.
The scholars underwent critical and rigid ex-
animation, in their various studies, with great
credit to themselves and teachers. A friend, who
attended all the exercises, has promised review
for our next paper.
Before dark, last evening, every available foot
of space in the Presbyterian Church was filled
to witness the award of honors TO such scholars
as had pre-eminently distinguished themselves in
their studies, and TO hear the Annual Address, by
THos- SHAcKELFoRD, Esq. Not succeeding in
getting in hearing distance, we shall look to our
correspondent for detailed account of the pro-
ceedings of the evening.
