ACADEMY OF THE VISITATION MOBILE. This
academy was founded in 1882, by the Right
Rev. Bishop PORTER, aud that eminent an
!amented prelate could not have made a more
Judlcious selection for its location than the
present site, three and quarter miles from the
city, in the heart of the beautiful village of
Summerville. In the midst of a splendid neigh
borhood, sufficiently secluded for u frst-class
boarding school, enjoying the blessing of an
abundance of pure cold water and within easy
reach of the city, it is very obvious that every
essential feature conducive to the successful
operation of an Academy of the Order of the
Visitation was carefully consulted by it's pions
and learned founder previous to its location.
The Sisters act the part of a mother as we'll
as that of teacher towards all the children
and with the experience of over forty years
they are certainly entitled to our confidence in
the management and direction of the children
conhded to their care The academy is pre-
pared TO accommodate 100 boarders and a
limited number of day scholars upon reason
able terms. 1t is, indeed, first-class Southern
institution and, such, shouId have the en-
and support of not only our own

! One of your excellent Washington CORES

that. in his opinion, "any man was a damned
fool" and he did not wish to be understood as
using these words in profane sense, "who
would pen such an article as that in the Fee

intrigue for the transferring of Porto Rico to

of the government at Madrid. 1 am willing

and his envoy, as American Minister to Berlin,
Mr. bancroft Davis, join in the general opinion
of their countrymen that Mr.. Hamilton Fish

suggested that Mr. Hamilton Fish was upcon- |

Empire, without Knowing what he was DOING
Mr.. Hamilton Fish is, even in his advanced
age, better judge than / am of the value of

to use in an official dispatch the language at

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
Dr. Wells Thrown from His Buggy

On Wednesday evening, DIR. J. Il.
Wells met with serious accident, the
particulars, of which are as follows
DR.. Wells, his wife and Miss Morris,
a grand daughter, were driving down
a hill near Beaver Creek church in
buggy, when the vehicle ran against
the horse, causing it to kick and
plunge, and something about the har-
ness breaking, the animal plunged
down the hill at a breakneck speed.
The Doctor and Miss Morris were
thrown out, both receiving injuries,
while Mrs. Wells kept her seat, The
horse fortunately getting loose from
the vehicle at the foot of the hill, doubt
less saved her from like fate. Miss
Morris was but slightly injured, but
the Doctor is considered in critical
condition. We trust, however, that
under skillful nursing. he will recover.
