Editors Of the Dispatch II may be mat
ter OF interest to some ofs,he old graduates
OF the University Of Virginia to know of the
death of my uncle, Professor Key, which
took place in London on or about the first
Of this month. On his return to England
he was appointed to the professorship of
Latin and Mathematics at the University of
London, which, together with the headmas-
tership of the school (now numbering over
nine hundred boys), he held until his death.
He was in his seventy-seventh year.
Yours very sincerely,

DIABoLioAL AMUsEEEsT.-Hundre OF
|olr people, who cannot imagine how men
and boys can enjoy themselves by making
Others miserable, were less surprised than
annoyed last night 10 fnd Christmas ushered
In by the hideous noise of scores OF tim
horns. From 8 o'clock until past midnight
the young fends gparaded the streets, defy
ing ths police, outragfng the license of the
Christmas season, and spending their breath
and ayalDable timeo by fabrieating sounds
that fell on the ears of many tinid and ner-
vous persons with dread severity. The
police to-day will no doubt try to do their
duty and enforce the city ordinance.
At this gladsome period of the year no
reasonable amusement ought to be checked,
and ample latitude ought to be, and certain
ly will be, given young and old in their
efforts to enjoy themselves. 1t has. however,
been decided by competent tribunals that tim
horns, blown with all the violence OF youth
ful lungs, are not essential to the happiness
of every portion of the community. Hence,
they may be dispensed with.

vorabe to Colonel Coleman.
