We are in recent of a catalogue

We are in receipt of a catalogue
of Union University, Murfreesboro,
Tennessee, which in its typhogra-
ply and press work does credit to
our con frere of the News. We find
at the head of this Institution as
president and professor of languages
and book keeping our friend Robt.
ID. Jamison, of Confederate memory,
with whom we shared some of the
vicissitudes and discomforts of the
late war. Even in those degenerate
times we were impressed by his
amiability, superior intelligence,
answering devotion to principle.
We are more hopeful of the future of
our country when we see such men
at the head of our educational insti-
buttons, training the minds and
hearts of our future leaders in State
and church. No truer and worthier
man ever presided over any school.
The University of which he is the
head is an old and honored institu-
ton, having been established in
lS48. Before the war it was famous
and prosperous school, and some of
our first scholars, at the bar, in the
pulpit, and in the chairs Of other
schools, claim it tor their alma mater.
f. Smithson. Esq'r, stepped into
his Office Tuesday night at a late
hour and found an owl perched
high on a shelf above his law
books. He didn't stop to apostro
phIze the blear-eyed invader, but
smote it hip and thigh with the
jawbone of an ass-uasive poker and
cast the carcass from his window.
Col. Poe of revered memory made
a fortune out of his owl and visited
upon the world an immortal effu
sion that has been parodied by
every cross roads lunatic in the
country, and we don't see why this
circumstance may not hand our
friends name down to the lunatic
asylum also, if he sees proper to
start off about thus:
Once upon midnight dreary,
As 1 came in tired and weary
From the strange scenes of sinful wsssails
WHICH
1 fain had sought to quell;
CHANGING to uplift my optic
Der the shelves bent low with Cophc
Lore and treasures of great learning which 1
vain had tried to spell,
As | conned 1t DER and DER,
Suddenly my vision rested
On blear-eyed, CHASTITY, crested.
Demon visaged speckle- breasted, horrid,
Notwithstanding fowl!
Mindful of the immortal Poe
Ker, fast 1 seized 1t and quick broke,
A fearful cash IN its grim visagel-Pshawi
The thing was but an Owl.
eross-eyed Owl, and nothing more.
Thus / spAke unto the craven:
''lf thou'dst been a stately raven
I'd not sent thine ill-starred spirit to the
dark Plutoniau shore.
When | saw thee there, delighted,
Sure, methinks, l now have sighted
Fame and fortune, lustrous glory grand repute
forevermorel" 80
But Pm tired and won't say more. /

Mrs. Harriet T.. Henry, whose
death is noticed in the proper column,
has for long time been great sufferer
from schirrous cancer, suffering only as
those unfortunate victims ofthis fearful
disease can know, but through all, has
patiently and uncomploiningly waited
till death came 10 her release. Snc has
been long known and respected in this
community, and was followed to her
last long resting place by large num-
Der of people from this and adjoining
towns. The funeral services were held
in the church in Leicester on Sunday
last, ut IL O'Clock A. NJ. Mr.. Henry
has the sympathy of the community in
his a1lliction.
"A few days ago we had the pleas
ure of viewing the new road--not
wholly unknown to fame-bcing built
by Frank Chandler from the Silver
Lake House TO the northern terminus
of the Leicester Hollow" road. This
road, it will be remembered, is the one
pctilioncd for of the town, bv Mr..
Chandler and others, some time since.
No definite action was taken, however,
except TO vote in town meeting not TO
grant the road, till the recent summer,
when on a second petition signed by Il
large number of the taxpayers, the Sc
lectmen authorized him TO build the
road on contract for the sum of $3.50.
Jle now has the road nearly or quite
completed, making connection with the
Lake and Brandon, Z 1-2 miles. The
length of road he has built is found TO
be nearly = 81 miles, and we must say
that it is a marvel of patient, pcrsever-
ing labor, and reflects much credit
upon Mr.. Chandler in its construction.
The road is built in the most thorough
manner, and is now the best road of its
length in town. This road will be open
to public travel during the proposed
campmceting TO be held there by Mrs.
Hammond and others, beginning on the
18th inst. This will afford opportunity
TO all to inspect the road and Judge for
themselves, and for those who may not
have the pleasure of visiting this de-
lightful region during these meetings,
we will soon give more extended and
definite account. Those who wish to
find this road will proceed directly to
Forestdalc from either direction, where
they will have no difficulty in learning
the way. Inasmuch as it will be neces-
sary that the strictest discipline shall
prevail during these meetings, those
whose presence at such places seems TO
be only for disturbance and disorderly
conduct, had best seek a congenial field
elsewhere. All others will find Silver
Lake one of the rare, romantic places,
and Mr.. Chandler genial. courteous
and accommodating gentleman, and
can hardly fail to admire this lovely
region and feel repaid for the effort to
reach j..
