FRYsINGER, Esq, its late Editor, after
conducting il nearly nineteen years
1t is not within our peculiar province
TO speak Of the general object or char
acter OF the paper during Hr. Frysin@-
cr's charge OF it: but we can with
propricty and truth say that it was
one Of our most welcome educational
exchanges, during the thirteen years
ofour experience in the ups and downs
OF editorial life No paper in this
State has been more liberal aud open
to the cause Of Education. and from
none have we extracted more numar-

wish the retiring Editor success in
whatever pursuit he may be called TO,
