College Dots.

Every circumstancein connection
with Liberty College at present APP
pears to be manifestation of the
progress it is making toward the
educational and moral welfare of
its pupils. The systematic manner
in which tits conducted is certainly
worthy Of our admiration, and the
kindness with which the pupils are
treated by their teachers gives them
pleasure to comply with all the
rules of the school. There are, at
present, about one hundred and
fifty pupils in attendance, thirty Of
whom board at the college.
For further promotion in literary
attainments the young men have
organized society, which is de-
signated "The Adelphic Literary
Society,"" the members of which
assemble at the college twice per
month. The active members are
obliged to participate in essays,
declamations and debate. After
the question for debate is discussed
by the regular debaters, the Presi-
dent extends the immunity of the
floor to all visitors, great many Of
whom indulge general debate. The
young ladies have also organized a
society which is governed by the
same constitution and bylaws as
that Of the boys. The members ol
this society also meet at the college
twice per month. Once in each
month the two societies meet in
unison. The commendable manner
| in which these societies perform
their duties is always interesting to
visitors.
Under the leadership Of Mr.. Roy
Smith a great portion of the young
men have organized themselves in
to a military company, and are
rapidly learning the tactics, ,ofwhich
their leader seems TO be complete
master.
Miss Carrie, an accomplished
daughter Of Rev. r. ]. Stewart, is
now assistant music teacher in the
college.
Let us all use our utmost ex-
ertions 10 sustain this excellent in.
stitute Of learning and bring about
results that will reflect credit on
the community in which the college
is situated, and the realization o.
the highest expectations of its
friends. The college is now full
fiedged, and prepared 10 take iti
stand among the colleges Of the day,
holding the highest place in tbs
confidence Of the people. Let il
therefore be the pride Of our people
to foster this literary enterprise,
and make it a blessing through The
