AGRICULTURAL CoLLEGEs--The
Lexington (Ky.) Gazette, speaking of
the agricultural department Of the
State University, says:
This department of the University
is fast filling to the capacity of ac-
commodation. There are about eighty
students, and fine and more gentle
manly set Of young men are not to be
found in any college in the country.
1t is ~ handsome sight to see them on
parade, with their new uniforms and
martial air, stepping with the preci-
sion OF veterans to the drum and fife.
There are no students taken under
sixteen years Of age, and those now
enteredare fine grown, athletic young
men, in the very picture of health.
They present q marked contrast to
most college students, with their
sickly, bent forms and cadaverous
countenonces. This is the result of
the outdoor exercise and work which
they do. The drill, which they go
through, straightens their forms, and
their mental discipline deprives them
of the brutal expression which is OBJ
seryabie in the mere soldier.

The offending party is subject to

A KINGDOM E1TINGUIsuED.
cable dispatches announce the recall
of the foreign ministers of Hanover,
and the winding up of the affairs of
that kingdom-which henceforth will
be no kingdom, but merely q part or
State of Prussia. Hanover has an
area about twice as great as that of
Massachusetts,, and nearly twice the
population Of that State; but though
so small, the kingdom has played
conspicuous part in the history of
Europe, and has itself known many
changes. The ancient inhabitants
were conquered by Charlemagne, who
made Hanover a part of his empire.
1t remained a duchy of Saxony until
1892, when Earnest Augustus received
the dignity Of Elector. From this
elector descended George Louis, who
in 1114 inherited the throne of Eng
land as George L. From I'LL to 1887
Hanover had the same sovereigns as
England, but its own administration
In 1891 it was occupied by Prussia,
in 1903 by the French, and again by
Prussia in 1906 In 1910 Napoleon
united it 10 Westphalia. The death
of William ~ separated Hanover
from England, rs the crown could de-
scend only to male heirs. The Duke
Of Cumberland ascended the throne
as King Earnest Augustus, from
whom. in 1851, it descended to his
son, George V, the last king who
