terested to learn of his recent election to the
chair Of physical science at Hampden-Sidney

though only twenty-five years Of age. given
evidence Of exceptional intellectual gifts. His
course at tho Richmond schools and after
wards at ths University Of Virginia was
marked by unvarying success, aud he has at
the latter institution the remarkable record
of having attained within a period Of four
years the degrees of master of arts and
mechanical engineer.
Among his classmates he was conspicuous
for an aCutely accurate habit OF thought and
study which gave him thorough and logical
grasp of the subject in hand and two years
out Of the four spent at the University be was
voted by the men there to be the most in
tellectual man in college.
The course OF which Mr. Bagby will take
control embraces chemistry. natural philos-
ophy. astronomy, geology and biology. sub
ects which. imperatiyely important as they
are. have heretofore, as rule, received but
little attention in our Southern colleges, and
the institution IN question Is to be copgrat-
ulated upon obtaining the services OF as
