Suddenly he dived under and disap-

animal COR moro correctly, some fish.
This was the last we saw of him. and I
never want to see him again. My friend

SECOND TON NONE.
so SAY REV. S. N. BARKER OF
r MALE COLLEGE.
A Talk with the Gentleman About
his Removal to Abingdon, Va.
Pleased with AslieVille.

Rev. S. N. Barker, who has had charge
as president and lessee of the Ashevile
Female College for the last session, has
accepted the lease and presidency OF
Martha Washington College, Abingdon,
Va, for a term of 10 years, and his time
begins with the opening of the fall term.
Prof. b. L. Atkins, who has long been
connected with the Ashcvile Female
College as teacher of mathcmastics, has
leased that property for ten years, and
his management will also begin with
the opening of the fall session. Prof. At
kins is brother Of Jas. Atkins, jr, who
for long time was president of the col
lcgc, and has been for several wears fully
identified with the success of that insti-
tuition. Mr.. Barker, in conversation last
night, expressed himself as highly pleased
with Ashcvillc and his reception here by
the people.
81 am very much pleased with the
place" he said, "and would he glad to
stay, but satisfactory arrangements can
not be made with the owners of the prop
crtv. NV success here has been mos,
satisfactory, and my business relations
with the owners have been pleas
ant. II satisfactory arrangements
could have been made, would have
been glad to spend the remainder of my
life here. ] think that coming here and
spending this year has saved my wiic's
life. She was suffering with pulmon-
AIRY trouble and Las improved wonder
fully since coming here. She hates greatly
to leave. My success here has been very
satisfactory. There have been about
fifteen States represented in the school,
and larger number OF young ladies than
were ever here have been at the school
this session.
"As to the new college under my charge,
| will cndeavor to keep that up to its old
standard oi excellence, and will make n
number OF improvements. Large mate
rial improvements to the building and
furnishings are contemplated, which will
make the college much more comfortable
and elegant"
Mr.. Barker will this summer erect an
additional building, which will give to
the college a large and commodious din
ing hall and chapel. He is now select
ing faculty that will bc first class in
every particular, and will so to consider
able expense to secure superior facilities
for educational purposes. lie says he
intends to keep the music department,
which has always been good, up to its
former reputation and will take great
pains for that purpose. In conclusion
Mr.. Barker said
THE people Of this place don't apprc'
ciatc what they might do Tor Ashevillc
il they would combine and build up n
good school here. II would bc great
advertisement for the place to have u
school that would compare with any i'll
stitution in the United States"
