THE USEFUL TROUBLE OF THE
RAIN."-Sundsy dawned cloudy
and rainy, and continued so until
night. The streets were compare
lively deserted and the churches
had sparse congregations. The
weather was qnite warm for Nov.

ed by drenching showers, and
as the evan day went down in wet
aud WEAKNESS" the demure squads
of men withdrew from the streets
and sought their rest or recreation
within doors. But the most notice
able feature of the weather, was the
sudden transition from q dreary,
dripping, gloomy day to the "long
glories of a winter moon," full
orbed and climbing the blue heavens
from which every cloud had vanish
ed. The lingering leaves of the
Court House pOplars sighed in their
uneasy slumbers" and Astarte. the
queen of the night, dispensed her
wealth of light, justifying the an
cient worship of those whose igno-
rance we pity, but who showed the
grandeur of their ignorance in their
worship of the most splendid object
of the visible creation. To him who
had stood under that almost verti-
cal moon, rapt in the contempla-
ton of the scene, was recalled the
exquisite picture ofthe summer mid
night in the garden of roses, drawn
by the poet pen of Edgar A. Poe.
Above the eastern horizon, Orion.

1t is to be regretted that two IN
successful efforts have been made
recently to secure = meeting Of the
Board of Trustees. There were
eleven only present at Milan on the
9th instant, and at Jackson on the
18th; the quorum consists of fifteen.
The want of money, no doubt,
increases the. difficulty of securing
a full meeting of the Board. 1t is
manifest that the -auOEaIa E.alst Do
made smaller in number, or else
greater powers must be conferred
on the Executive Committee. The
committee desires no increase of
responsibility.
Fifty-six acres Of land, on both
sides of the railroad, in small and
scattered lots near the city, were
subscribed by the citizens of Jack
son, upon the condition of having
the University located within GER
tain boundaries, before the 10Th of
November, 1874. The Executive
Committee were ignorant of this
condition until a few weeks ago.
Having no power to purchase a
site, and locate, they proceeded at
once to call a special meeting of the
Board. AS no quorum has been
secured, the condition of reference
to the lands has failed on our part,
unless the donors agree to extend
their offer until next April, when
the Board meets at Nashville. The
Executive Committee will make
the request of the proprietors OF the
lots offered to continue their
offer.
The subscriptions made in and
about Jackson must be secured by
bonds at once. The affairs OF
Union University turned over to
the Trustees need settlement and
Bro. G. W. Griffin can
not spare from his PASTORAL duties
enough time to wind up these mat
ters promptly, and such is the fnan-
cial condition of the country that
it is unwise to press an agency for
endowment. In this state of things
the Executive Committee has re-
leased Bro. DR.. Griffin from his
temporary agency, and employ
Bro. Z. A. Collins, of Milan, to
give immediate attention to the
business interests OF our UGiversi-
ty. Bro. Collins is an Alumnus
Of Union University, a successful
and business man. He
loves the University, and will give
prompt attention to its financial
matters.
The Classical School is doing
very we'll indeed. Prof. Jarman
s regarded by all as eminently |
Qualified for his position as Presi- |
lent. DR.. Patton and Bro. Mus
grove are in perfect accord with |
Prof. Jarman, and all earnest and 4
successful teachers. The school ]
numbers about ninety pupils. The
library and fine apparatus will soon
Dc moved from Murfreosboro to
Jackson.
The usual favor will be extended
o the sons of our minister's who
ire wholly engaged in ministerial
work. Efforts will be made TO
,heapen board for the next year.
