In the inscrutable dLspcnsatinu of His Providence, it
iias pleased an Almighty God, to take suddenly from
the stage of human action, another of our beloved as
sv-tiaies—youthful expectations and brilliant promise
have again been prematurely blasted. Scarce had the
bud began to expand and to open its tender jtetals to the
genial sun of Hope,’ere ii has been withered by the
chilling Irosts of Death. Again and again have we, in
the brief apace of two years, been called iq>on to la
meut the departure of esteemed fellow-members; and
ilbw, still another time, are we summoned around the
cold aud lifeless form of a cherished and much loved
brother. Thomas B. J. Lamar is no more.’—A few
days ago,—a few hours only have, elapsed since he
mingled with us, apparently in perfect health and wi:h
the brightest anticipations for the future. Now, the
generous pulses of his noble heart are stilled iu ;he cold
embrace of Death’ While it becomes uto bow iu the
dust of humdity in view of this mournful visitation or
Providence,acknowledging that “the Lord gave aud
the Lord tuketh awayyet our hearts would faiu give
some expression to their gr.ef. Therefore-

The following contmuuica'.ion was received from the
Phi-Kappa Society :
Pk -aappa Hall, January 24th, 1358.
But a few days since, the loss of a Collcdge coin
panion was lamented in our midst. The cypress leap
dropped by the hand >4’ regard over his early grave, is
yet fresh ; and the tears of afreet ion at his untimely de
parture, have not yet ceased to flow. To-day another
announcement has been received, which, far from alle
viating, has still more painfully increased our recent
sorrow. Sudden is the hand of fate—painful the traces
that it leaves behind! Its coming, no man, age, nor
even the angels of heaven, can foretell. Snatched from
life in its morning, the night of death lias Midilenly
overwhelmed him. And as it has pleased Almighty
God in the dispense ion of divine Providence, thus sud
denly to remove frotn our midst our beloved fellow-stu
dent, T. B. J. Lamar,in all the vigor and bloom of vouth*
we fee-! called upon to deplore deeply his premature
death. Our dcceasoit brother, a member of the Senior
Class, aud of the Dvmostheuian Society, has sustained
during his connection with College, a chur.icter surpass,

New York World's Fair.—A number of the plan- 1
tersin the vicinity of Memphis have determined on pit
paring a number of bales es Cotton to be sent to the
Fair, to -ho’ what they car. do in the way of raising
and handling fine cottons. Hearing of this, several of
the largest cotton merchants of Memphis determined
upon otfering the prize of a magnificent silver Coffee
Lrn, to be r>resented to tbe j'luuter who exhibits the
/of L'i la'.d < .‘ttoil, of Mimlwd weight, at tha
New York World's F'air, in May next.
It strikes us that tlie example sis bv the Memphis
merchants, ii this regard, might tw i.itiUted with profit,
not only in this city, but in every considerable town
throughout iUaS:m-h. It might stir, ml ate such m sjiir
