the president OF the Board be given
the authority TO discharge any an

Southern statesman will delight all who
are fortunate enough to hear him Monday
evening, and no one should fail to en-
brace the opportunity.
Mr.. Watterson delivered the lecture Sc
lected for this occasion in Washington to
an immense audience, the President, the
Cabinet and half of Congress being pres
ent. Of the impression he made, the
Washington papers speak in glowing
terms. The Washington Evening Star
said:
1.-The lecture was delivered without
notes, and apt interpretations dispelled all
impression of labored memorization.
Throughout it was full of poetry and
philosophy lighted by brilliant wit The
interest of the audience was not of that
casual and languid sort so commonly
yielded to lecturer The applause with
which the lecture was approved time af-
ter time was not the sort that is marked
in the manuscript please insert 1t was
spontaneous, earnest and deserved, and
showed the influence exerted by the lee
turer over the judgement, the Imagination
and the emotions of his hearers. The
thought running through the lecture was
that the most proper and profitable pur
suit of man is happiness here and here
after, and that this happiness is to be
found in the appreciation of the blessings
in reach, however humble, rather than
by following a fixed star of ambition for
wealth or honors which occupies the
whole mind, having no thought for the
sources Of true joy passed on the way"

casion of big junket to the west he
was one of a large party made up of
officials, members of Congress, the Dip
