The meeting was called fqr the
purpose of electing a President of
the Industrial college. After dis-
cussing the matter, the hoard de
cided to postpone the election un
til the 12th of February. There is
no reason to be in a hurry and the

to deliberate over this important
matter.
After attending to some routine
business the board adjourned until
the 12tli of next month.
The President of the Board was
authorized to dra^ the State appro

Merriwether School.
The people of Merriwether are cer
tainly to be congratulated upon se
curing the service of a first class
teacher. He is a ripe scholar and
experienced educator, having taught
for years in the South Georgia Col
lege in Thomasville, Ga., and for two
years as President of the Branch of
the State University in that city. He
was for a while teacher in Soul Uni
versity, Texas. He comes to us re
commended in the highest terms by
such men as Chancellor Mell. He is
a fine Greek, Latiu, French and Ger.
man scholar, able to teach any branch
in our colleges. I give a sample of
the testimonials. They speak for
themselves:
South Georgia College, )
Thomasville, Ga.,
June 22nd, 1832.)
Prof. L. S. MacSwain has been as
sociated with me as teacher for the
past eight years. During tliat time he
has had charge of the departments of
the Mathematics, and Languages, em
bracing, Greek, Latin, Frencli and
German. In Mathematics he is
original, analytical and thorough;
while in the Languages, Greek es
pecially, I am sure he has but few
equals, and no superior within my
acquaintance.
Asa teacher he is faithful, industri
ous and successful, competent to fill
any position in that capacity.
As a Christian gentleman I cannot
speak too highly of his virtues. His
character is above reproach.
O. D. Scott,

It gives me pleasure to testify as to
the qualifications of Prof. L. S. Mac-
Swain, as an instructor if youth.
Prof. MacSwain was for a number
of years a distinguished Professor in
tlie Brandi College of this University
< at Thomasville, Ga.,) and for two
years held the position uf President
of that institution.
I cordially recommend him for any
place for which lie may apply or which
he may be willing to accept.
