DIR. QUARLBs FOR THE UNIVERSITY

We sincerely trust that the rancors
and bi%lternesses which have been en-
gendcred by the disputes regarding the
state university will be put behind us
for good and all, and that the friends
OF the institution, regardless of which
side they may have espouscd in the
spirit of Cancellation and kind feeling.
No matter who may be elected to the
presidency he will come to its duties
with added burdens by reason Of the
quarrels of the past. We hope the man
found for The place may be as ripe b
scholar as Or. Laws, and that he will
have those qualities of a%daptability,
that tact, which DR.. Laws may, per-
haps, have lacked. Whoever he j., we
shall wish him well, and stand prepar-
ed to aid him in his work. AS the
first act of friendship, even before he is
named, we wish to say, that the pres
idency, and its consequent supervision
and care, is enough for any one man,
and to add that if this idea prevails,
there is now in a Virginia university a
Missourian filling the chair of meta
physics who would be u valuable man
for u university. We use the word
filling adviseily, for by scholarship,
general culture, zeal and aptitude in
his specially, the Rev. Jas. A. Quarles,
ID. D., fills the chair of metaphysics
in Washington and Lee University.
1t may be that he would not accept the
similar position at Columbia, as he is
well situated where he is, but if he
could be induced to do so, he would be
a most valuable accession to the fac
ulty. The better field here, where he
would have larger opportunities of ill.,
fiuence in connection with fuller class
es and the growing west; the fact that
in Virginia he has Bellies Lettres with
metaphysics, and that here no could
be limited to his specially; and the
well known love that he bears for
Missouri and its people. might all, to-
gether. conspire to bring him back from
Virginia to aid in making of the state
university what the people of the state
would like to see it.

Mr.. John Jaynes, of Sedalia, in an
interview at Washington, states that
Missouri democracy is rent into two
factions, the "mossbacks" led by Vest,
and the ''kids" led by Francis, and
that as a result the republicans will
win the next legislature and elect a
senator. Well, the Lord deliver us, il
the samples now at jefferson City are
to be more than duplicated. But there
Is not the least danger. The "kids,''
so called, will hardly want to be prom
inent, as such, in another canvass, and
the "mossbacks" now are the republi-
cans who are bowling for pensions and
the war, and who are welded 10 the
antiquated and exploded theory of a
high protective tariff. Even if Mr..
Jayne does part his hair in the mid
die, wear kid gloves in the day time,
and cover himself with stinkemgood,
there are more things that he has'n,
found out about Missouri than he ever
dreamed of knowing. to is a la dab
II a nice young man, but when he
smells a democratic quarrel right
ahead his delicate ol~factories are de.
ceiving him. If he will take out bis
lace handkerchief and blow his nose
maybe he can see better than he now
seems to do.
