That one year's salary be voted the President, and that it be urged upon him, as his duty, to resign his office. " ' It is presumed, added Mr. Smith, the President will not think of remaining, since he will have no services to perform.

I repeated the reasons for this course, if I mistake not, which were given before the Board in May ; and added, that my resignation, in such circumstances, would be virtually an acknowledgment to the world, that the reports in circulation were true, and that the pros- trate condition of the College was to be attributed principally to myself.
