sS, 600, and a considerable amount Of money,
derived from checks drawn by Fowle on
Richmond and Alexandria banks and caShed
by Worsham. About half of these funds

tanned, have not responded to the summon:

Contrary to the well-considered belief of
many men of the highest intelligence and
largest experience In education, iu and out
of the colleges, and In and' out Of the Gen
era Assembly, it should be found on trial
that the prosperity. safety, and efficiency of
the University is Injurious to, the colleges, 1t
will then be time enough to consider whether
the University shall be sacrificed for them.
