rURDUE UNIVERSITY.

"Jefferson" Givea an Interesting Sketch of This Institution of Learning. Its Origin and Ideation A Derlptln of tne Edlueo and tne Vat-lone Ie partraents Toe Faculty and the Literary Societies. tSpeclal Correspondence of the Sentinel. Lafayette, Ind., Maxrh 7. A sketch of this institution wi'l doabtless be read with interest by the leaders of the Sentinel. Being the youngest in the family of oar state colleges it ia not so well knewn as most of tbe others, though in the simple title of Purdue university it is already recognized as one of the rising institutions of the land. Its broad foundations have been laid, its system of financial sustenance is fixed, and it has started out in its educational career with as much promise and with as auspicious prospects as any one of our state institutions. ITS ORIUIX. An appropriation made by congress some 10 years ago to establish an agricultural college gave a large body of land to this state on conditions that such an institution was organized and in funning order by the month of October, 1874. An act was passed by the legislature of 1S73 accepting the offer, and immediate steps were taken to organize such a school, and the law of the appropriation was met and the institution began life as the Indiana agricultural college. LOCATION. One hundred acres of land was donated by the friends of the enterprise, lying a wife west of the beautiful city of Lafayette and the same distance west of the Wabash river. Some 86 acres more were purchased on which now stands tbe buildings of the institution. The institution is one of picturesque elevation and romantic beauty. From the doors of the college the view la magnificent. The city of Lafayette is in fall sight on the eastern shore of the classic river, while the rural edifices of the village of Chauncey fill up the more immediate sur roundings on the west side. The whole farm lies like a plain, and every acre is visible to the eye from the yillage buildings, which gives to the locality an attraction of beauty which is not excelled by any literary institution in the state. Nature itself has seemingly marked the spot with her original fingers, and!points to it as a place that might be made or classic fame without a doubt or fear of subsequent criticism. The grounds of the campus are some 100 feet above the streets of the Star city. This elevation assures relief from the miasmatic atmosphere of the low lands, which affects so many with disease and suffering. EDIFICES. The buildings of the institution are com plete in number and of the most substantial character. University hall' is the main col -lege edifice. It is four stories in height and admirably arranged in all of its appointments, the basement being used chietiy as a museum depository of their numerous specimens. On its second floor we find the academical rooms, which are spacious and finely planned for general accommodations in acoustic and occular demonstrations on their blackboards, and in the exhibitions of their drawings, etc. It may be remarked that the buildings of the university are all well located for protection in cose of fire, as any one of theia might be destroyed without affecting the others. The boarding house contains on the first floor a spacious dining ball kitchen, laundry and rooms for the. family and servants. The second story is divided into suits of rooms designed for the faculty and the young lady students. Its furniture is plain, but substantial and convenient. The young men's dormitory is four stories high, and will accommodate xerhaps lift students. It is well arranged, with bath rooms on each floor, offering to the young gentlemen the luxurious inducements of clean lives and good health as well. The laboratory is a neat and appropriate edifice, judiciously arranged in its different chemical, physical and smelting departments. The Military hall presents a large drill room, and appropriate rooms for storing arms. Gymnastic exercises are also conducted in this hall. The boiler and gas house manufactures the steam and gas for heating 'and lighting the entire "group of buildings. Its engines pump all the water needed for the whole establishment. The engineer's house, gas refinery and stable complete their building conveniences, and, as a whole, they make a very neat and attractive display of university edifices. The farm house, barn, granary and other farm buildings are located a few hundred yards west, and are occupied and efficiently managed by Captain L. A. Burke, superintendent of the farm. The entire arrangement of the buildings shows the best of economy in construction, as well as accomplished taste and judgment. APPARATUS AXD CABINETS. The university has an ample supply of chemical apparatus and a well equipped laboratory. Each student Is supplied with all necessary chemicals for proper experiments. In the department of physics large additions have been made in apparatus, affording the finest facilities for illustrating the principles of the sciences. It is especially complete in the departments of elictricity and magnetism. GEOLOGICAL 8PECIME3X. The university is fortunate in its collection invertebrate fossils of the paleozoic age?, including the Silurean and carboniferous ages; several hundred species of Invertebrate fossils of the tertiary age also give interest to the cabinet. The collection of mineral specimens make a strikingadditional attraction. ZOOLOGICAL MCSKCM. The specimens of anatomy of the horse, cow, deer, dog and lion are the finest we have ever seen, while the suites of marine, fresh water and land shells serve to keep up the conception that thia has been a wonderful country, if it is not now. This musenm department of the university is being rapidly augmented in every possible particular. The effort is a commendable one. To gather specimens of every bird and aaimal known to the state; fish and serpents and every class ol tne lower life animals and l a sects can not fail to add to the variety and rich ness of this museum. ' THE HERBARIUM. This department, which is unique and practical, contains about a thousand species of manuted plants. It is rich in ferns, grapes and scages. All the lights of nature around us are seized upon by this institu tion to give tbe minds of tbe young students specific ideas of the physical grandeur of creative power, and to show up as well the complete and beautiful varegations ofour native soil. 5ATCRAL HISTORY. Tn thin rlenartmant Professor II ilftseT tfi tm. with his fine monacular microscope, startling exhibitions of animal life, such as is

found in the water we drink, which is enough to turn one away from "the cooling beTerage" to something stronger, if it does

Kill rouna a corner, me iaea oi guipinjr down great snakes and wiggling tadpoles doesn't impress one with sanitary convictions, and this microscope opens up such an inside world that it makes one feel that there is life in everything we see or eat or drink. I5DCSTTUAL ART. In this department it Is aesigned to teach students in crayon work, drawing maps and making models of every character. A number of maps shown us of our state, which were drawn byjths students, are admirable both in taste and correctness. TBS rMVRRilTT FARM. The farm contains 1G9 acres. The land is rich and well fenced, and 'n a fine . state of culture. It is stocked with a fine herd of valuable short horn and Jersey cattle, Berkshire, Essex and Poland China hogs, and a full variety of Plymouth Pock chickens. Captain Burke has been the farm superintendent from the beginning. He seems to be well posted in first class farming, and will doubtless make a model farm in connection with the university, which will give to students who may come here to work their way first class knowledge In the line of agriculture. COLLEGE LIBRARY. As yet the library here is somewhat limited. They have a good selection as far as they have gone. They are just flow adding some $2,000-worth of books to the catalogue, and in the course of years tvill be able to present a full collection of the best volumes of the age on all subjects connected with the studies of the university. LITERARY SOCIETIES. Of these there are iwo one for the young men and the other for the young ladies. For culture ia writing, declamation and debating the societies of a college offer opportunities of improvement superior to anything we know of, for it is there that students obtain many of their best criticisms, and brighten up to tbe full .measure of the finest practical developments. If they are well conducted they rarely fail to sift the grains of intellect in a college with fairness and reality, and lead finally to the front those who have been the best students and who have the most brilliant intellects. Judging from what we see here of the contour of the students, we would presume that they have a fair share of promising abilities. Tbe students seem to have tbe vim for healthy developments and the snap of certain future success. THE FACULTY", ' Emerson E. White, A. M.. LL. D.. is presideat and professor of Knglish literature. lie is to-day absent from the university at Crawfordsville as one of the judges in the ora torical contest which is going on there, lie ia classed, as all know, as a finished scholar of ripe experience, and, as all seem to think here, he is making a prudent and accom plished president of Purdue university. Harvey W. Wilcox, A. M., M. D.t Is tne professor of chemistry and physics. He is a native Indianian, a graduate of Hanover college. He afterwards entered Harvard university, where he perfected himself in chemistry, and subsequently graduated a3 a physician in your city. He is "chuck ' full of chemical compounds, and walks through the wilderness of physics as if he was on his native heath. i John Husser, A. M. Ph. P., is professor of natural history. He is a graduate of Oxford and a most diligent worker in the field of nature. His mind and culture fits him for just such a chair. Not satisfied with what he could see with his natural vision he has supplied his room with a microscope which opens a new world before him. He now plays with animalcules which float in a drop of water, as a boy would with a school of minmes. David G. Herron. A. M., Ph. D., is professor of mathematics and civil engineering. He is also a graduate of Hanover. He has for years 1 A - 1 . .1 f" 1 ueeu couuecieu wuu tue neiuucay univer sity. He is a profound student and a thorough mathematician. As a practical engineer be is thoroughly at home behind his compass. His surveying instruments are very superior, and are highly prized by him. l'roiessor llerron, whom we have known from his earliest years, represents one of the best families in Ohio; but,, good as he is, the outlook indicates that when he goes hencs he will leave bo one to represent himself, btill, he may live in the memories of other years; that will be something: CHARLES E. LAMBERT, A. M., is a professor of Latin and history. He is a graduate of the Northwestern university, and a Methodist minister. He has just entered upon his duties in the institute, and promise to make an efficient ana zealous workman. L S. THOXFSOJf, A. M., the professor in the industrial art, was It years connected with the schools ot Sandusky, and for a number of- years baa made drawing a professional specialty.. His con ceptions of drawing, carving, lithographing, etc., are an of the practical character, and with these ideas he is rendering his depart ment one of the most attractive rooms in the institution. Robert F. H. Weyher, the instructor in German, is a native of Prussia. He is a fair, open hearted German, well versed in tbe idioms of his own vernacular, and, besides all this, he is said to be a fine scholar. E. E. Smith is the principal of the university academy. His long experience as a teacher in the Kentucky university, of which be is a graduate, qualifies him eminently for the position he now holds here. Mrs. Sarah A. Oren, who is so wel. and so favorably known in your city, and who won such an enviable reputation while she was state librarian, is the associate principal of the academy. In this role, as in all others she has ever acted in, Mrs. Oren has maintained the prestige of her dignity and intelligence with commendable cousisteucy. We trust that the hand of time will ever rest gently on her. Mr. Mahr is, or wa?, the instructor on the piano, but we have heard no note of his soDg and not even teen a piano in tbe establishment; we have to inspiration to speak personally of this department. The organ of the chapel, in the morning service, is all the music we have heard, and that was only an old time tune which we had long since forgotten. A LIBERAL PROVISION. The legislature of the state has provided for the commissioners of each county to send two students to Purdue university free of all cost, save their board, which is a very fine opening for two young men or ladies to obtain a first class education. Four young men could pay all other expenses by work on the farm, and a poor young girl might perhaps find employment in the boarding house, where she would find a good home and a kind family. Why not? The effort would do honor to any young girl, and perhaps change the fortune of her whole life. JOH3I PURDUE, A life size portrait of the grand old man bangs on the wall of the chapel, where bis kind and benignant eye looks down on the assembled faculty and students with the lire sympathies of an eternal patronage.

DOWX UY THE RIVERSIDE.

The Water Front of LouisviUa' and Surrounding Sights. A Popular Hotel la If ew Hands Some of tbe Views to be Seen A Steam boat Bide. Special Correspondence of tbe UentlneLl Louisville, March 8. We have been a resident of the Falls City for two weeks, and the Riyerside hotel is our stopping place. This neat, comfortable, little hotel recently changed hands and business does not languish under the new management for tbe stranger who chances here goes away delighted with the accommodations and liberal charges. . W. S. Wolfe, the manager, Is an affable, courteous gentleman, never idle, never absent, and ever ready to minister to the wants of his guests. His wife is an accomplished and well known literary lady, and a very pleasant addition to the society of the hotel. She is one of those warm-hearted, impulsive little creatures whom it is impossible to meet and not love. The Sentinel introduces her to its readers this week, and we know her charming little sketches will lend additional interest to its columns. THE WATER FR.05T. The Riverside immediately frontsand overlooks the noble Ohio, and from its windows the view spread out before us is. panoramic and very hue, for Louisville's river front, unlike that of many cities, does not consist of sooty warehouses, unsightly, dingy and begrimmed buildings. Every morning at our first glance at the wharf we see a long row of puffing steamers, and as the river is high many of them are larger and pretentious looking. There seems to be a general revival of business on the levee just now, but we would like to have a word with those gentlemen who are in the habit of overloading their mules. Their unwarrantable cruelty in this respect has often led us to wonder if there were no law in Kentucky for preventing cruelty to animals; and if so, why not more rigidly enforced. SIGHTS FROM A WINDOW. Jnst opposite our window we 8ee Jeffersonville, with its numerous modest brick towers; off to the left the beautiful suspension bridge, where the railway trains, with their human cargo, are forever passing;, perhaps even while the iron horse is making the transit from"Hoosierdom" to Kentucky, far down the river, rounding bend, we catch a glimpse of a large steamer. Nearer and nearer she comes; how majestically she moves. With what grace and dignity does bbe seem possessed as she plows tbe waters. A wonderful work of man a thing of life, power and beauty. River, and river navigation of any sort, has an irresistible charm for us, and it was our good fortune to enjoy a trip over the falls a few days since. Our party embarked on board the Charles Morgan, one of the largest and fleetest steamers that ply the western waters. We found the Morgan superbly furnished, crowded with Mardi Gras excursionists, and tbe scene of much festivity. Among other Indianapolis people we met Dr. and Mrs. Wells en route for the sunny south on a pleasure tour. A THRILLING EXPERIENCE. The passengers nearly all assembled on the upper deck, where they watched almost breathlessly the progress of the boat, and as it approached the tremendous piers of the bridge all seemed filled with a sort of an imaginative thrill (not of fear) lest the boat, through some unforseen freak, might strike one of these pillars. But Captain Varble was at the helm, and in his skillful hands this monster of power seemed a gentle and obedient creature, and glided gracefully through, mid-way between the stone piers. As we were about to pass under the bridge, all draw back speechless, but with something akin to fright depicted on their countenances, for in our alarm we thought we would surety shatter the flag staff and chimneys. Again our fears were groundless, for -we cleared the bridge (it seemed to us) not more than six inches, and emerged from under it to have a beautiful view of the old Ohio in its wildest mood; no two swells were alike, and just at this point it tosses, tumbles and foama like the mad creature it is in going over the ledge of rocks. CLOSING NOTES. However, it soon ceases its antics and goes along like a respectable, well behaved river. Loth to leave, yet compelled to do so, wo bade our friends adieu at Portland, wishing them a safe, pleasant journey. - There is much wildness, much picturesque nesa and beauty to be found along this river, and how well we would enjoy just such a trip in the glorious autumn time. How dull and prosaic seemed our ride of four miles in a horse car, and our return to tbe hotel was without incident or adventure. The writer has gained very little knowledge of ixmisville, its life and society as yet, but hopes to soon report her impression. There is a trio of handsome bachelors boarding at the Riverside, but we shall not be so indiscreet as to risk any allusion to their particular merits. Mabel Lawrence. A handsomely dressed woman at a recent performance of "Hamlet," given by Edwin liootb, in tbe Brooklyn Academy, turned to her companion, in tbe midst of the first act, and asked audibly: "Which is Shakespeare?" She was told that Shakespeare was the author, and then added again, this time petulantly: "Well, what is it all about, any way?" A titter ran around the audience seated near her, and her companion's face turned all manner of colors. Mr. Moody told his Springfield audience tbe other night that he can tell on looking over a congregation the believers by the expression of their faces. Then he told them a story about a poor woman, who, hearing a rap, thought it was the landlord come to demand the rent. She refused to answer, and thus turned away a friend who wished to give her money. -The audience laughed at this, but Moody stopped them abruptly by crying: "You laugh at that woman, bat it was you, yourself, sinner." All sufferers from headache, giddiness, coated tongue, liver inactive, costive bowels, bilious, will find an effective remedy in "S wayne's Tar and Sarsaparilla Pills." Fevers are prevented by the use of these blood purifying pills, as they carry off mrougn tne moou, me impuniies irom which they arise.'
