[That last touch on Grant is very rich.l Messrs Editors.—In thelasKlssue of the “ Watchman,” I noticed a com- musication from Prof. W. Leroy Broun, in relation to the Subscrption of $25,000 from the City to assist iu the establishment of a Mechanical School in our City, in couuectiou with the Agricultural College. I am surprised to learn that there is considerable ob jection to the donation of that amount, aud ask the attention of your city readers, and more especially of those who may have objections to a few reas ons why it is gieatly to our advantage, both financial/, and socially that measure receive the unanimous sanc tion of the entire community. That the College is of immcnce advantage to our Mercantile community no one will pretend to gain-say. There are now some 300 students here who pay o:i an average about $6,000. per month for board alone, which is divided among our Merchants a snug little sum the loss of which would be severely felt. I learn from a very reliable source that strenuous efforts are now being made to have the College re moved to another location, and in view of the fact that Athens has never given anything towards its maintenance, 1 think it would be but a just retribution for her ingratitude. Were the effort to succeed if they defeat this proposed subscription, and in view of the fact that these efforts are being made, it behoves as not only to make the dona tion, bat make it unanimous, and let those who would take it from us kuow that we fally appreciate its valuable presence, and intend to spare no effort in our power to retain it I suppose that the objections that arise to the amount of taxation that it entails a n ere song in comparison to the inesti mable value that this most important addition promises. The direct benefits of the construction of such a building is no small consideration while the in direct benefits are incalculable. Not only the merchant, but all classes of our community are alike benefited by its location in our midst. The me- who will have free access to the lectures which are proposed, tbe benefit of which hecau hardly cs- (coBtale mow. In fact, not only the oMBBMmity, hat the State will feel die effort of its teachings, and we will have the honor wf planting the seed to die glorious tree of knowledge. Let there bo a meeting, and let the friends of pro gress and those who feel the welfare and piwperity-sf pin fltj at beart tally to the support of the untiring originators of this most important step. Carry the subscription “ Una Voce,” and aa a community we will have done a duty whtch we shall have just canse to feel preudof. *•-. V •. Progress.

Jane Smith, at her residence in Franklin, at six o’clock. Mr. Smith was a meek and quiet hus band, beloved for the graces of a culti vated nature. He excelled in the domestic virtues; as a cook he was surpassed hy few ; as a nurse, he was equalled by none.” The year 1372 will lbng be remem* bored (says the British Rcvieic) as one of the most disastrous for shipping in the Northern Hemisphere that has ever been expected that the casualty of collision should bear its proportion.
