REsIGNATIoN OF PRoF. CAswELL-Rev
DR.. Alexis Caswell has resigned his professor
ship of natural philosophy and astronomy in
Brown University. He has held professor
ship there for the period of thirty-ive years,
giving instruction not only in all the branches
of mathematics, but also in various other de-
partments OF study. For many years he has
discharged the duties of president, whenever
the head of the college was absent. In the
raising Of funds for the college, and especial
ly for the library, and in every measure cal
culated to promote the welfare of the inStitu-
ton and of the students, he has always been
conspicuous. His long term of service fairly
entities him to the release which he now
claims, and which the corporation, after urg-
entity requesting him to retain his connection
with the institution, have felt themselves re-
luctanty constrained to grant. In accordance
with their desire he continues his labors until
the coming recess, which occurs in about
month. He will carry with him into his re-
tirement the sincere affection and best wishes
of his numerous pupils, who are scattered
throughout the land Prortdence Journal.
