DR.. Lord.

DIR. LORDS resignation of the presidency of
Dartmouth College, which has bat recently been
announced, furnishes us the opportunity, which we
gladly take, to say few words of him in his re-
latious for thirty-fve years with that literary in
stitut;on DIR. LORD was elected in 1923 Presi
dent of the College which was then in very low
condition, feeble, and burdened with q debt of
$4,000. Dartmouth Hall was then the only
College building. The foundation for Wentworth
Hall had been laid for some years, but there
were no means to proceed with the superstructure.
President LORD at once went to work raising
funds, and in a short time succeeded in obtaining
$50 900 and at subsequent times his influence
has procured for the College donations to the
amount of over one hundred thousand dollars.
He built Wentworth, Thornton and Reed Halls
the Observatory and Moor's Charity School
building, the latter of which is now used for the
Scientific Department.
DIR. LORD came to the College when the
CLASSES were small, averaging only from twenty
five to thirty-fve, and under his presidency they
have increased to an average of over sixty. More
than two thousand students have graduated under
his instruction. During all the period of his con-
nection with the institution he has given his
Ghoughts and unIemitted efforts to the best inter-
eSts of the College and all connected with it, and
1t is not undue praise to award to him the prnci-
Aot credit for the change in its position and pros
,pects, now as compared with 1S2S,-then strug-
Cling under financial embarrassments and with its
future still problem, now resting on a sure foun-
dation, its borders enlarged, its treasury full, its
SUCCESS assured beyond doubt, and standing the
lpeer OF the best colleges in the land. More than
that of any other man, and, we believe, more
his work. And that he might accomplish this
dor the College he has given unressrvedly of the

The LATE BATTLE AT CHARLESTON The Her.
aid has the annexed dispatch, by which it will be
seen that the 54th Mass. (colored) regiment has
received its " baptism of Blood" and acquitted
itself nobly:
Morris ISLAND, S. c., July %, !
via New York, July &c.
On the 10th inst. Gen Terry's division on James
Island was attacked by the rebels. The 54th
Mass. regiment, then doing picket duty, fought
bravey, losing forty-sx in killed, wounded and
missing. The rebels were defeated and driven
back.
On the 18th inst, our batteries on Morris
Island and the iron.clads bombarded Fort Wag-
ner all day, the rebel forts responding. The fir
ing on both sides was terrific. In the evening
Gen. Strong's and Col. Putnam's brigades at
tempted to carry Fort Wagner by storm. The
engagement lasted two hours, and our troops got
possession Of a part OF the fort but were driven
out. Both Of the brigades, which were largely
composed of New England troops, were badly
cut up. Our total casualties will number over
one thousand. We occupy all our old positions.
Since the 10Th there has been occasional can
nonadng, with but few casualties.
The Herald say the oath was composed of good
stuff, if they were colored No better fighting
was ever done than they did on James Island.
Their color sergeant is highly spoken of.

Bilious Diarrhea

Bilious diarrhea is always an effort of Ma.
ture to save herself from impending disease
hence it is a curative process, and should not
be interfered with. The passages in dysep.
terry are bloody and painful always in sim.
pie dlarrhea they are always thin, almost wa.
terry, always large and light coored. In
cholera, which is aggravated diarrhea, the
passages are infalIibly painless. On the 9th.
er hand, bilious diarrhea is kn0wn by the pas.
sages being colored either dark, green, or vel.
low, often with burning gripping, or other i'll
feeling before the passages come on. Bilious
darlhea ought never to be checked, except
by medical advice, because it is an effort of
nature to rid the system of that which would
destroy it if allowed to remain within it.
Life has been destroyed thousands and thou.
sands Of times by failing to distinguish bill.
ious diarrhea from common diarrhea, simply
by not noticing the color of the discharges,
and thinking that nothing more is necessary
than to check it; and whatever does THU
the quickest is the best remedy. Opium, and
and laudanum, and morphine are
resorted to with a fatal recklessness they ar.
rest, but do not cure they hide, cover over,
but do not eradicate; but that is not the worst
of it, they often send the disease to the brain,
10 children, to result in certain
death IN short time. In most cases, all that
is necessary in the bilious diarrhea is to
take nothing, keep still, keep warm in bed,
and do not eat an atom of anything except
when really hungry. There is but step be.
yween bilious diarr'ea and bilious or cramp
,olic, these last ending in death, often within
/ few hours The difference between them is
only this-nature forces the bile out of the
ystem in bilious diarrhea in bilious collie
The has not the strength to do it and In this
after case, unless speedily and efficiently AID
ID, death, painful, agonzing, and speedy, is
he result.
Bilious diarrhea is often preceded by cos
iveness, and is generally brought on by bad
lir or by chilling the skin, either by cooling
t off too suddenly after exercise, or by re-
naming 10 water or damp garments for a
ong time the effect in either case is the
anne namely, to close the pores Of the skin,
md drive the matters back and inward, which
would otherwise have escaped benefcially
rom the body. A sudden burst of passion,
Or other shock or great mental emotion, may
bring on an attack of bilious diarrhea. Those
therefore, who have observed themselves to be
ubject to attack Of bilious diarrhea, may
EASILY postpone them indefinitely by arrang-
~ to have the bowels act freely once every
wenty -four hours, by cuItivating an equabc
rame of mind, and by habitually avoiding
very thing which causes chilly feeling to

AFFAIRS IN LlBERIA.-The latest news from
Liberia is of gratifying character. The college
is going on prosperously; the farmers are very
busy, and are enlarging their plantations of sugar
and coffee barque had just cleared from Sierra
Leone 'or New York with twenty-six thousand
gallons of palm oil, and large shipments of coffee
and sugar. A commission had met at Monrovia
to determine the northwestern boundary of Libe-
ria. AT Cape Palmas there is a great deal of en-
terprise the vacant town lots have been put I'M
der cultivation, and farming is to be undertaken
on a more extensive scale.
From Cape Coast Castle we learn that there is
a serious misunderstanding between the King of
Ashantee and the English. A sharp conflict oc-
Cured in June, in which the English were worst

ARREsTED.-A young man by the name of
Stevens was arrested in Boston, a few days
since, for breaking into Arad Corliss house, in
East Coripth, and riding his pockets of his
pocket book and watch. He confesses the
crime and says that he hid the money and
watch near Manchester, New Hampshire, but
on being taken there by the officer, was not able
TO tell exactly where the spot was, and conse-
quently neither the money nor watch could be
found.

The DRAFT NORTH AND SoUTH-Jeff Davis
has issued proclamation calling out the entire
male population of the South between the ages
of eis hteen and fory.fve. This is the kind of
draft in the South. Here at the north the fight
ing population is divided into two classes, and the
second class is not to respond until the first class
is exhausted. At the South every able bodied cit
izen is compelled to shoulder his musket and take
the field, and no opportunity is left for escape.
Here many persons who are able bodied and per-
iectly competent for military duty are exempted
by the terms of our CONSUMPTION law, while at the
South no one is exempt from the sweeping con.
scriptlon which depends upon jeff Davis will
alone.

A HEAVY BALANCE or PRIsoNERs.-The bal
ance in favor of the government against the reb-
els in the number fprlsoners is sixty-four thou
sand. We have on hand and in parole seventy
nine thousand rebel prisoners, against fifteen
thousand Union soldiers in their possession.
This makes the exchange market easy.

CoTroN BURSIN6.-The New Orleans CORES
pendent of the New York Herald, says it 10
doubtless true that the rebels in the neighbOr-
hood of Mobile are burning all the cotton in
their vicinity. This, more than anything else,
indicates that Grant is expected that way very
shortly.

the recent capture of nine Of the enemy's
boats, near Piketon, Ky. The letter says:
Intelligence was received by Gen. Floyd
that several boats we're on their route up
the Sandy river, laden with arms, smmuni-
ton and clothing for a regiment recently
recruited near Piketon.
Early ON the morning Of The Sd ult., Col.
Clarkson proceeded in the direction Of
Prestonsburg, Ky. We found the boats
FIVE miles below that town. aud attended
by guard Of upwards Of 500 men. The
proper disposition .! the troops was speedi-
ly made, and the battle opened fiercely.
The enemy after holding their ground Tor
two hours, were completely routed and
dispersed, with the loss in killed OF 20 Of
their number, and 80 or 40 prisoners.
The men, already elated by their victo.
ries, were still more jubilant on discover
ing that their capture consisted OF nine
boats, 600 feet long each,) containing 500
Austrian rifles, with large supplies OF am
munition but what pleased their fancy
mure than all besides were 500 ogercnats,
500 jackets, 500 pairs of drawers, 500 pairs
splendid army shoes, 3, 900 pairs arm socks,
500 thick shirts, 500 pairs ct pants, 800
good army hats, and hundreds of heavy
blankets, besides heavy supplies OF sugar,
salt, and rofee. The value of the whole
can be safely estimated at S250.00O. The
loss on our side was three killed and
seven wounded. The boats were destroy
ed. with large supplies Of tents and accou.
tremsn,s, which could mt be well conseyed
away; and we set out in the direction Of
Plketon to make disposition Of Col. Dills
and his regiment Of 500 men. We en-
countered him on the road between Pres
tonsburg and Piketon. After a sharp en-
gagement his men were completely dis
persed.
We brought OF 900 horses. 100 cattle
Macy negroes. and prisoners to the number
Of 200.
