AGRICULTURAL COLLEGg.

correspondent Of the Manchester Union
writing from Des Moinss under date of Jan.
18th, writes as follows Of the College Farm
The Trustees of the Agricultural College
and Model Farm held their session at the
Capital this week THere was pretty full
attendance, and considerable interest was
manifested. Sucl Foster, Esq, OF Musca
tine presided. The College aud Farm arc
represented as being in prosper condition
There Is good deal Of interest manifested
in the success Of the enterprise. The last
Legislature appropriated 500 ,G01 for the per.
pose OF erecting suitable building OH the
premises. Hon. VIM H. Holmes was an.
pointed trustee to fiji the vacancy occasion
ed by the resignation OF Hon. Wtn. Duane
Wilson. Mr.. Holmes is Chairman Of the
building Committee, and, &c oGicjo, Presi.
dent OF the College. Peter Melendy, ESQ,
OF Cedar Falls, was elected Superintendent
Of the Farm and Secretary Of the inStitu
ton. The compensation Of the SuperinteU
dent and Secretary is 1860 per annun,,
which IS poor compensation for the seryi.
ces required 10 be performed Second. rate
clerks, who serve without boud or oath. are
worth that in these times Of Inflated prices.
Five hundred dollars four years age were as
good as twelve hundred would be now. Mr..
Melendy IS q very competent man for that
position, and no better could have been se-
lecttd. We are not advised as 10 whether
he proposes to remain as Superintendent and
Secretary, but we know it would be greatly
to the advantage Of the Institution for him 70
remain. We shonlj have competent men TO
fill our offices Of honor and profit, and they
should be well paid for their services, and
men who are not qualified should not be EN-.
ployea nor retained at any price.
