This gentleman, so we'll known here
as an efficient educator, and who won
additional laurels, in the Green River
country, in the same capacity, and af-
forwards distinguished himself as edi-
tor of the Western Recorder-an or
gan of the Baptist church. has accep-
ted the Presidency of Bethel Female
College, at Hopkinsville Ky. He re-
tired, some ten years ago, to his pretty
suburban residence, near Louisville, to
enjoy, in the bosom of his family, an
ample competence, the fruit of life
of energy and usefulness. But his de-
votion to his church and the cause of
education-a ruling passion-have en-
ticed him from retirement into the
field of active labor where, if success
equal his merits. he will reap an ad-
ditional harvested honor and proftand,
better still, the plaudits of an approx
ing conscience.

what we learn from others, the wheat
crop is promising throughout the coun-

the late heavy rains had washed away
many plant beds, one farmer there
having only one plant left in his bed,
the top soil and seed having been swept
away.

GAINESVILLE LEAF TOBACCO
MARKET.

Our receipts are stillon the decrease,
but sales continue large, between seven
and eight hundred hhds. per week,
with very full prices, especially on the
better grades.
We are now in the midst of a crisis
which will determine the price of the
weed. both here and at the seaboard.
Should the cool, dry spell continue for
Is or 20 days, with hard baked, un.
broken lands, together with barely
plants enough to plant medium size
crop, and to add to this the backward
ness of the farming community, with
general disposition on the part of the
farmers not to plant, in consequence of
the unremunerative prices obtained,
which leaves the renting population
largely in debt to the landholder,
thereby greatly discouraging the labor
heretofore used in the Indian weed. 1t
is but reasonable to expect a rather
light planting, even with the most IA
vorable season for planting, when we
take into consideration that corn is
now worth about s. 90 per barrel and
that one hand can produce IL barrels
of corn much easier than he can 600
pounds of tobacco worth$6 90. While
we wish to show the real condition of
the Leaf Tobacco Market and the
prospects, we would respectfully sug-
gest that it is unwise to dictate the dis
psnsatiOns OF Precedence and invest
without margin, to await the realities
of a visionary mind.
In our next report we hope to be
able to give the development of seven
days more of the crisis heretofore men
toned. The only change in prices is
that they are fraction fuller. espec-
tally on good grades. We have a very
sensitive market, easily excited and
closely watched.

rangements to build new church ed
ifce in front of the old building at
McAdoo camp ground. They have
contracted with Mr.. f. R. Smith, OF

sisting other neighborhoods, and we
hope she may now receive liberal do
nations from all the surrounding coun-
try. We are glad to know that they
have determined TO build church there
that will be an honor to their denomi-
nation and reflect credit upon those
engaged in it. We attended our first
camp meeting at McAdoo, thirty-fve
years ago, when barefooted boy, and
number the people of that vicinity
among our best friends, and we there
fore take pleasure in noting anything
that is calculated to rebound to their
prosperity and happiness.

SOUTHWESTERN UslvERsIrS.

The Board of Directors of tie above
institution, which met in Memphis
last week, decided in favor of locatins
tin this city. The misconceptions fol-
the location were. Huntsville and Ope.
liKa, Ala. Bolivar and jackson, Tenn.
and Meridian, Miss. Eleven Direc.
tors were present, and the vote stood
nine for GAINESVILLE, and two for Jack.
son. shFE EEfE
The GAINESVILLE delegation made
very strong and forcible presentation
of the advantages offered by our city,
and those of Jackson were as strongly
urged by her representatives.
DIR. B. NJ. Palmer, of New Orleans,
has been rendered the position Of
Chancellor, which it is probable he
will accept.
To DR.. j. B. Shearer, of Stewart
College, this great enterprise owes its
conception, and to him in a large de-
dree is due the honor of its successful
Inauguration. He has labored faith
fully and well for the consummation
of this scheme, and has had many OBJ
stacles to overcome, but his zeal and
energy have been untiring. He was
ably assisted in the noble work by
Hon. d, N. Kennedy, whose labors
have been unceasing, and whose aid
has proved invaluable, and success
crowned their efforts.
Wehave now the certainty of an in.
stitution which will be at once an hon
or and pride to our city, and our COM
munity should use every effort to assist
in its completion, and aid by every
means in their power the denomination
under whose special charge it will be
in making it what it is intended to be.
Let every individual use his best en-
deavors to advance and promote its
interests, for all are more or less in
terested in its complete success, and it
will prove of almost incalculable ben
eft to our town.
The enthusiasm with which the news
of its location here was received, we
trust, was but an earnest of the hearty
and enthusiastic support it will receive
from all classes. Every one can con-
tribute by some means towards its full
and complete success, and, be it much
or little, let each one do his part.
