Tlic College of Charleston. j We arc gratified to learn that this j venerable institution is to be re-open ed on the 1st of January ensuing, I under an able corps of professors. In consequenae of the interruptions of ; regular instruction for several years, ! the wants of the young men of the i South arc peculiar, and general sen- ! timent calls for modifications of our j systems of education to meet those j wants. The expediency of a re-or- j ganization of the College was there- ! toro referred by thc trustees to a com- ] mit too, consisting of the Hons. H. D. ? Lesesne, W. 1). Porterand Geo. Buist, ! who reported on tho lGth ultimo, re- ' commending an enlargement of thc j basis of educational benefit, chiefly | by two measures. First, by admis- I sion, in addition to thc students pur- I suing thc regular curriculum, of other students to a partial course, under ! certain regulations; and secondly, by the delivery of lectures at the college by the professors at night, for the benefit of persons who, desiring libe? ral instruction, are unable to enjoy it in the ordinary mode-the professors to determine the subjects and order of the course, and to make a mode? rate charge for it. The Committee also recommend ed that, to meet the exigencies of the times, the charge to students be ten dollar per quarter. The report of the Committee was adopted by the Board of Trustees, and will form the basis of future operations. The Faculty consists of the follow? ing gentleman, viz: Dr. N. Bussell Middleton, Presi? dent of the Faculty and Horry Pro fessor, &c. Di". Lewis B. Gibbes, Professor of Mathematics and Natural Science. j Fred A. Porcher, Esq., Professor Bolles liftttvAs. Wistoiy, A.c. Rev. James W. Miles, Professor of 1 Greek and Latin Classics. John McCrady, Esq., Assistant Professor of Mathematics. F. S. Holmes, Esq., Professor of j Paleontology, Mineralogy, etc., and | Curator of the Museum. The library of the College is large j and valuable, and will, in the course of a few months, perhaps a few weeks, be opened under the charge of Dr. Frampton, lately appointed Librarian. To the liberal and choice donation made some years ago by Dr. Framp? ton, will be added the rare and select collection of books bequeathed by the late venerable and accomplished Judge King. These collections were, sent for safety during the war into the interior, and. we are happy to say, are safe. Tho more valuable and rare portions of the Museum were also sent away, and are safe. Both the books and the museum will be brought back, it is hoped, as soon as ! the railroads are completed. To the names of the Hon. Elias , Horry, Dr. Lingard A. Frampton and ; the Hon. M. King, known as liberal ; benefactors of the College, the insti ! tution now adds the nanio of Ephraim M. Baynard, who, by deed I executed in April, 18(34, made the : College a magnificent benefaction, j thus entitling himself to tho high distinction of be a prominent pro? moter of liberal education. ?
