At a late meeting of the Board of Trustees, Dr. Robert Henry was' ejected Professor of Belles Lettres and the Philosophy of Laaguage, in. place of the,: Rev. Mr. Thornwell, resigned. We .ar er glad to see the great learning of this gen tleman again employed in its appropriate, sphere. The vacant chair of Greek and Roman Literature has been filled by the election of the Rev. Mr. Hoopkb, in favor of whom the recommendations were very high. The Steam ship, the British Queen, ar rived at New York op the 234 November, bringing news from England 14 days later, which, however, is scarcely interesting e nough to be copied. In the money and trade markets, little change had taken place. Massachusetts. Accounts are not yet positive as to the election in this State. 1 is there necessary to the election of a can didate for the governorship, that he should have a majority of all the votes given. Such does not appear to be the case with either Everett or Morton, (though the latter is several hundred votes ahead,) so that by pro vision of law, the election devolves on the Legislature. The composition of that body, too* is rather uncertain, each party claiming a majority. Mississippi. The two administration can didates are elected tto Congress. * Condensed statement of the condition of tbe Banks of South Carolina, at returned to his Excellency the Governor, November, 1839.

J. P. Richardson, ?he Convention adjourned to meet at 6 o'clock to-morrow etening. J " Mr. Editor ? I was pleased to see it late ly mentioned that it is proposed to put in nomination, Gen. Tops. F. Jones, for the Presidency ol the Rail Road, and would feel highly gratified if be should accede to it. It would certainly conduce much to the interests of that great work, to have a real practical business man at the head of it. ? One who would entirely and exclusively de vote himself, to the arduous duties of the office ; who would combine clear sound judg ment with firmness and energy ; and who would, with labour and perseyering industry, carefully and cautiously e*ami/je inio details. Such precisely, are the distioguisbiog cha racteristics of Gen. Jones; not hypothetical, merely, but faifly tested aod shewn in seve ral stfccessive works of a public nature, which have happened to fall under bis charge, as well as in the general scope of his own business. His penetration and good judgment, which are generally fcuowp, are not superior if equal, to the patient ai*d per severing industry with which he <. the most minute details of. every subjt . investigates I mean no disparagement ? the pretentions of any other gentleman who may be spoken of for that office, when I venture to predict that if Gen. Jones should be called to preside over the affairs uf the Louisville, Cincinnati and Charleston .Rail Road, a system of prudent economy* intro duced with forecast, and enforcrd ' with steal and ability, would, within a reasonable time, change tfie aspect of its affairs, and inspire the Company whh lenewed cotifidrnce.
