A CORRESPONDENT writing us from
Richmond, Virginia, in reference to the rep
resentatives Of Memphis at the University OF
Virginia (Messrs- j. S. Williams, Moses L.
Wicks, -Winchester and Fred. W. Smith),
says Mr.. Williams was one Of the editors Of
the Unfuereftg Magazine during the last
quarter of the session, was one OF a iOrtun-
ate few who graduated in French, and he was
the fortunate one who graduated in moral
philosophy, az he took the hrSt honor or Its
equivalent-the first prize for the best logical
analysis. There is something remarkably
deep in this young man, and /, for one, shall
expect 10 see him, like his noble father, first
in the forum;I expect % look upon him in
some future day as the star Of Tennessee. MI.
Wicks had the reputation Of being an excel
lent student, and sustained his reputation by
obtaining the meritorious degree Of Bachelor
OF Law, He was also honored by the Jeffer-
son Society with the high Office Of Final
President. His beautiful and elo-
Quent address on the night OF the
celebration has celebrated the Society
which honored him.. I had the pleasure
OF forming the acquaintance Of Mr.. Winches-
ter and regret that my acquaintance was so
Of being one OF the moss social and free
hearted students in the university. From my
short conversation with him 1 am convinced
OF two facts, namely: That he is a gentleman
and a scholar. Mr.. Smith seemed 10 devote
most OF his time and attention dur
ing the Final to the young ladies,
from his polite and afable man
ners and lively conversations one would
Imagine that he could talk 10 half a dozen la
dies at the same time. All Of the students
called him "Fredw and that familiar appli-
cation. together with many friendly express
Ious from other students, deeply Impressed
with the idea that Fred. was wen known, |
tightly respected and very popular. This Is
more than can be said ofany other city which
was represented al the University Of Nir-
Memphis may justly feel proud Of her
7ast representation. Can she send another?'
