dioceses with the view Of soliciting, 10y a
general appeal, the funds required. 1t was
also resolved 10 appoint one Of the Lay
trustees to act with Bishop Quintard, as a
commissioner, in obtaining funds, etc, and
also 10 take general charge Of all the busl-
ness affairs OF the University place. Maj.
Geo Il. Fairbanks one OF the lay trustees
from Tennessee, was chosen to fill this
position, and has accepted the appointment.
Bishop Quiniard rendered TO the Board
the new building at Sewanee known az
Otey Hall, and erected by him for the Sc
vance Mission and Training School, which
was accepted. The newly consecrated
Bishop Of Louisiana, Bishop Wilmer, ex-
pressed himself as very warmly interested
in the success Of this great enterprise, and
that as successor Of Bishop Polk, the great
founder Of the project, he should feel
peculiarly identified with it, and would do
every thing in his power to carry it forward.
Certainly no more noble tribute could be
paid 10 the memory Of that great and good
man than q rear the walls Of the Uni
versity which was the most cherished OBJ
ject of his thoughts and life.

Very few southerners are SO infatuated

be of advantage to that section, quite the
contrary. The Richmond Wing forcibly
says on this point -
Experience has long since satisfied us
that the disagreement between the presi

disastrous TO himself, has been much more
calamitous to us, and that the longer il
continues and the more embitlered il be-
