Miss Ella Kibbee narrowly escaped
death by taking Aconite for Slippery
Elm tea. Last Friday night about
nine o'clock her mother gave her as
she supposed a tea cup containing
slippery elm tea, the contents of
which proved to be Aeonite, and Miss
Kibbee's taste being much out of or
der did not discover the mistake till
she had drank two swallows, which
but for the timely arrival of her ply
stefan would have proved fatal, but in
six hours she was out of danger.

and / understand they stoOd6
for to 2 against the bill. Mr.. REX,
Senator from Wayne, and q member
ofsthe committee, wishes to amend
the bill so as to prevent n R. R.
corporation getting controlor forming
running or business arrangements
with more than one through line in
this State. The object is to prevent
the Erie Co. getting control or use OF
the Pittsburgh, Fl. Wayne & Chicago
railway. I think the bill will pass
the Senate in a few days as it passed
the House. On Friday last Mr.. Jo-
sEPH PERKINS, of Cleveland, gave to
the committee his objections to bill,
on behalfOf the Mahoning R. r. Com
pany; and JEW. TYLER, of Warren,
presented on behalf of the A. & G.. w.
and tho Erie Companies reasons why
the bill should pass.

This is still a vexed question, await

sentative of the county, and Mr.,

doubt that the final action will be
favorable to retaining the county seat

For THE CENTRAL PRESBYTERIAN.
Augusta Female Seminary, Staunton, Va.

The rank which this school has attained under
Miss Baldwin's guidance ought to be source of
pride and qualification to all good Prcsbyterans in
Virginia, and the South. 1t ought to be matter of
thankfulness to them that there is no longer occa
sion, apology or pretcxt for going beyond their
own boundaries to find in Roman Catholic, Epis-
copal or any other Seminaries the means of i'm
parting to their daughters either thorough train.
ing in the humanities' or the utmost finish in
the elegancies of female education. This Seminary
of Miss Baldwins with its fifteen teachers and
Professors, can with confidence and without any
presumption challenged comparison with any other
in this country for the horoughness Of ats mental
training and discipline, the ertent and COMPLETE
ness of its academic course and the admirable finish
impaired to its pupils in the music department,
both vocal and instrumental. When to this we
add the refined and cultivated social influences
which pervade the entire establishment, imparting
to it the charms of sweet home, We have said all
that can be said for female school, and yet not
one word more than will be avouched by the most
intelligent patrons of this Seminary, whether res
ident here or in distant States 1t has steadily
won its way into the pubEeestfdence by the fdel-
ty and honesty of Miss B. in giUtng equivalents
for what she receives from her patrons. For as the
number of her pupils grows, she promptly in
creases the number of her teachers and Professors
and adds to their efficiency. So that whilst the
school has attained to the large number of one hun
dred and thirtyve pupils, yet it also boasts of f-
teen teachers. Now there are probably few schools
or Colleges which furnish a teacher to an average
Of every nine scholars; yet such is the fact here.
1t may be proper to add that the writer of these
lines has no manner of interest in this school other
than the interest he feels in the cause of education
generally, and of female education in particular
and that he has no sort of connection with any
teacher or Professor In it. He has weighed his
words carefully, and has written only that whereof
he has personal knowledge; and it is creditable to
the discernment of our Southern people that they
recognize these facts and that so many of the best
people in so many of the States south of us send
their daughters here, some to finish and others to
begin, continue and end their education in this
leading Seminary of the South. CIvIs.
