GEN. LEE AT WASHINGTON CoLLEGE-We copy the
following card Of announcement from the Lexington

fers to Gen r. f. Lee
The gratifying duty Of announcing to the country the
acceptance by Gen Robert L. Lee of the presidency

undersigned by the board of trustees Of that lnsttu-
ton. The accession of this distinguished gentleman
to the faculty of this venerable college, and as its
honored chief, is destined we trust to mark the COM
meucemeEt of new in its history, and most cor
daily do congratulate its numerous friends on this
most auspicous event. The high, noble and patriotic
motives which npeed our beloved chief, in accepting
the honorable but comparatively humble position ten
dered him by the authorities Of the college, must win
for him the admiration and love of his country
men The college, under the administration end
supervision Of Gen. Lee will resume its exercises on
the l4th inst.
At meeting Of the board of trustees of the college,
convened in Lexington Thursday, the 31st ult the

caon of which is demandedas an act of justice alike
to Gen. Lee and themselves.
Resolved, That the board heartily concurs in, and
fully endorses the sentiments SO well expressed by
Gen Lee in his letter of acceptance Of the presidency
of Washington college, that sit is the duty of every
citizen in the present condition of the country to~do
all in his power to aid in tue restoration Of peace and
harmony, and in way to oppose the policy OF the
State or general government, directed to that
obec and that Tit particularly incumbent or those
charged with the instruction of the young set
ample of submission to authority sentiments that
cannot fail to commend themselves to the president OF
the United States and to the unqualified assent Of all
sensible and VirtuOus citizens.
In dedicating his future life to the holy work Of
educating the youth of his country Gen Lee presents
new and interesting phase Of his grand heroic char
actera character than which no more perfect model
exists among living men. 'Tis solid fabric, and will
well support the aures that adorn it." Let the young
of +I,a wpll south hn wise
and profit not less by bis precepts than by bis great
example JOHN VI. BROCKENBR0UGH,

WAsHINdToN AND THE CzAR.-In an address to a
military company in 1851, by the governor OF South
Carolina, he stated q very Interesting tact: Nme
minister r N this country to Russia he visited the
magnificent gardens which surrounded Petecshof, near
St. Petersburg consecrated to the extensive use and
enjoyment of that most brilliant court of Europe; and
as he was perambuating that part Of thegrounds which
had been set apart for the private walks Of the emperor
and empress tree was pointed out to him, cultivated
BY particular and devoted hands, surrounded by wire
wicket work with flowers fourishing all around it.
On one Of the branches Of this tree there hung large
brass plate bearing this inscription, on one side IN
German, and on the other in Scavonlc
This tree was planted in 1882 by Nicholas, from
an acorn which grew near the tombof the great ash
ington."
The tree was fourshng and green when the governor
saw it. and watered and cultivated with more care than
anv other in the garden. Nicholas was one OF the most
absolute and desnotc rulers that ever sWayed scepte;
and vet in his private secluded retreat, he paid this
striking tribute to the memory of the greatest and
purest man the world ever saw.
MRS. JEFFERSON DAyIs-The Augusta Constitution

accosed him thus: my friend, you tell me if Mrs
Davis is in the city Of Augusta"
'No, sir" replied our friend "she is not"
"Well, sir, replied the stranger, "you may be sur
prised at my asking such question; and more particu
larly SO, when | inform you that am discharged
United States soldier But Gand here he eVInced great
feeling sir that lady has performed acts OF kindness
me which I can never forget. When serving in tht
valley Of Virginia, battling for the Union, received
severe and dangerous wound. At the same time

and he would be locked up in a cell OF the prison
where this article is penned and we are confined"
