DIR. N. LABonDE. -On hearing the
tolling bell Of the University, in accord.
ance with previous understanding,
the Faculty Immediately assembled, and
Professor Cummings arose. and ad-
dressed them as follows:
Mr.. CHAIRMAN: The tolling of the
University bell, which for fifty-four
years called him to duty, as pupil and
professor in this his Alma Mute7. broke
the stiffness Of this morning by an.
nouncing to us, and to many other sad
hearts, that our late fellow laborer: the
honorable Maximilian LaBorde, M,
D., now sleeps in the quiet of death,
awaiting the last sad Offices Of the living.
Tho occasion is extraordinary; many
years have elapsed since death had in
vaded their classic shades; he has nov
prostrated one OF the most revered and
distinguished that ever soiourned with.
in these wallis: ALL the circumstances
are impressive. But short month has
elapsed since he was with us, in better
health than usual.
He accepted the off1oe of Chairman of
the Faculty, unanimously rendered hi m
by his fellow professors, and entered
upon tho duties OF the new term in the
most cheerfdl and hopeful state Of mind.
Subsequently, yielding to the advice of
those who. undoubtedly. thought they
advised for the best. he resi- gned hia
professorship in the University. Soon
after he fell into state of great de-
preston OF mind; disease followed. At
half past O'Clock P. NJ. on November
6, 1873, the earthly conflict ended, and
he now. as VIC confidently believe. en-
joys the rest of Paradise. =
Iu token of our respect for his memo
~, the following resolutions, on motion,
were unanimously adopted:
Resolue1l, That the exercises of the
| University be suspended until after the
interment, and that we will Individually
attend his funeral.
Res0ired, That we sincerely condole
with his family in this their great sos.
row, and commend them to the sustain
ing mercy of our Heavenly Father.
Resoloed, That the Marshal be in
structed to have the University bell
tolled from the time that tho cortege
leaves his late residence until. it enters
the church.
Resotoed, That the address of DR..
Cummings and the accompanying reso-
lutions be entered upon our journal,
and that our Secretary furnish copies of
the same to all the city papers, as per
order Of the Faculty.
e. W. EVERSON, Secretary.
PHd;N1xIANA.-Soold is an extreme
ly' disagreeable habit. It is dangerous.
Once introduced into family, it is
pretty certain in short time to affect
all the members.
Give foolish talkef rope enough and
he will hang himself.
It is asserted that man cannot be
good for anything who is vcty popular.
The moment man is satisfied with
himself, every one else is dissatisfied
with him. a
It is little tronhles that wear the heart
out.
