The SOUTH CAROLINA UNIVERSITY
meeting of the Board of Trustees, held
yesterday, the following members were
present: Gov. Scott, Comptroller Neagle,
Auditor Tomlinson, Superintendent of
Education Jillson and Senator Robert
son. We learn that the following new
professors were elected:
DR.. A. G. Mackey, the Nestor of the
radical party in South Carolina, was
elected Professor Of Natural and Me-
chanicat Philosophy and Astronomy,
rice DIR. John LeConte, resigned.
Joseph A. Jones, Of Georgia, Profes-
sor of Chemistry, &c., cice DR.. Joseph
LeConte, resigned.
L. E. Heart, Esq, of Darlington,
Professor of Mathematics, &C., rice Gen.
e. P. Alexander, resigned.
DIR. John Lynch, Demonstration of
Anatomy, rice DR.. Ed. D. Smith, re-
moved
DIR. Mackey is we'll known in this
State. His correspondence with Bowen,
to say nothing of his previous elegant
efforts, shows command of language
that may be we'll in professor; but, be-
fore this, we were not aware that he as
pired to natural and mechanical philoso-
ply and astronomy. We suppose the
idea Of the Board was that his election
would, at best, nuke the University
''see stars" from the telling blow it gets
in his election to chair in that seat of
learning. DIR. Jones, we are informed,
is of Georgia. We do not know this
professor. Professor Heart is gradu-
ate of the Citadel Academy-was Pro
fessor in the Furman University, and is
o gentleman of high character and fine
attainment. DR.. John Lynch is we'll
known as one of our local physicians.
