manned continuously until after the
death of Its benefactress.
Lady Huntingdon being, as a result
of the Revolution, an alien, il became
necessary to secure special legislation
to permit her to continue to hold Be
thesda in trust. Whatever feelings
may have arisen against the English
as a nation were not extended to her
as an individual. The bitterness nat
urally resulting from the eight years
struggle did not prevent recognition OF
her claims to consideration. Joseph
sHabersham and others of the patriot
leaders were still her friends and the
memory of Whitefeld and his work
was precious to the citizens of the new
sovereignty. Influences were at once
exerted in her behalf and among the
first proceedings of the legislature was
the passage on Feb. /, 1888, of the
following act:
Whereas, there is in the state a
very considerable property, as well real
as personal known and distinguished
by the name of Bethesda College. or
orphan house estate, originally intend
ed for an academy, and devised In
trust by the late Rev. George White
field for literary and benevolent pur-
poses to Selma, Countess of Hunting
don, be it enacted that the said estate
be vested in the said Selma, Countess
of Huntingdon, any laws to the con-
trary not withstanding. and whereas,
there may be in the said county of
Chatham lands INDICATED and not
granted. be 1t further enacted that all
such vacant lands not contained with
in any tract for which a grant has been
obtained, be reserved for the use of the
said academy or seminary of learning,
provided that the quantity of vacant
land thus reserved shall not exceed s.
900 acres"
This act further provided that lone
thousand pounds specie of confiscated
property in Chatham be put into the
hands of trustees by the sheriff for
the use of the academy. John Hous-
toun, John Habersham, William Glib
bons, Sr. William Stevens, Richard
WHY. James Houstoun, Samuel Ell
bert, Seth John Cuthbert and Joseph
Clay, Jr., were named as trustees in
the act, In the event of a vacancy
occurring they were to nominate three
persons. one of whom the governor
would appoint.
(To be continued in next Sundays

WoIfe's Monument.

Quebec Correspondence London Post
1t is sad to see the state of wolfe's
monument to-day. Rank grass grows
high inside the rusty and worn iron
ratings. The column is cracked. and If
nothing be done must soon perish. The
monument. a simple column with a he'll
met and sword on top. and its inscrip-
ton: wolfe died here. victorious. 10
Sept. 1850" is sublime in it's simplici-
ty. The present sordid surroundings
of the scene of the hero's death can
not be helped, but surely the monument
itself on the spot on which he died
should not be left uncared for.
