We regret to learn that Mr.. Jefferson Par

Asylum, has rendered his resignation to the
board of Trustees. to take effect September
LIST. Mr.. Parsons hls acted as Steward since
the death of Mr.. Alien, former Steward, six
years ago. For sixteen years previously Mr..

His long expert ne, ri led Iy good business

officer to the State, and much of tie financial
success that has attended the II stitution is due
to his efforts. We heartily join with the
Standard in the remark that his services can
not well be spared. and it is matter of re-
