fessors are not more learned its orgapiza-
ton is not more complete, or its endowment
more princely, but it is the great name OF
it's distinguished President which gives to
it its unparalleled success. Its prosperity
is the homage paid by Southern hearts to
the character and deeds of General LEE
Others can be found whose worth, char
acter and honorable bearing have endeared
them to the South whose intelligence
and attainments recommend them for
position, whose moral and social standing
make them peculiarly fitted to have the
charge of youths-whose examples of pa
triotism and manliness have won the sym
patty of our people, and whose names
would prove "tower of strength" to our
University.
Let us, then, interest ourselves to call the
Importance of this fact to the attention Of
the Trustees. Let US suggest the names
of suitable persons and canvass their mer
its, so that when the elections take place,
those who have it in keeping may not be
entirely ignorant of the wishes of the
people.

The recent melancholy death of Hon.
G. l.. HAMILTON, at the hands of his ma
MAC son, leaves vacancy in the Eighth
Ohio Congressional District, to supply
which the Governor will, at all carly day,
issue writ of election. The occasion of
this special election will be one Of great
political interest and significance, and will
demonstrate how far the reaction last Fall
is real and whether the revolution yet
continues. In 1866 Mr. HAMILTON was
elected by 1852 majority. At the election
last Fall for Governor, while the District
gave evidence of a response to the great
political revolution, the Radicals carried it
by the reduced majority of 247. Ithowever
gave a majority of l. 1882 against the negro
suffrage scheme at the same time. The
Radicals claim the District as certain, but
their meagre majority is enough to inspire
their opponents with hopes of victory As
this is one of the nine Congressional Dis
tricts in the State which remained in pos
session of the Radicals, the contest will be
exciting, and its results may give some
Ioreshadowing of the voice of Ohio IN the
important election next November.
