We append the following statements from the Editorial correspondence of the Macon _Telegraph and Messenger_: This institution has been conducted with singular wisdom and propriety, and has already proved an inestimable blessing to the colored people of Georgia. Gradually, but surely, all the prejudices of the whites have been overcome, and the predictions of many that it would eventuate in a mere nursery of Radicalism and hate to the superior race, have not been justified by the facts. On the contrary, we have the testimony of our own School Superintendent, Mr. B. M. Zettler, that some of the most efficient and conservative teachers in the Bibb County schools were educated at the Atlanta University. Moreover, he favors the appointment, by the various Boards of Public Education, of teachers of their own race for the colored children of the State, in every instance where they show themselves competent. Accordingly, we find from the official report of President Ware, that of the fifty-one alumni of the University, forty-two have engaged in teaching as a profession, while three are pastors of churches, two theological students, and one, Nathaniel D. Harris, of Washington, D. C., is pursuing the study of law. Of the teachers, four only have located beyond the limits of the State. In addition, over ninety of the more advanced pupils employ their time during vacation in teaching. The institution is in a more flourishing condition than at any previous period of its history. Its matriculates number two hundred and forty, representing ten different States and forty-seven counties in Georgia. The trustees hold sixty acres of valuable land adjoining the college edifices, which is in itself a splendid endowment. The other revenues cover $8,000 per annum from the State of Georgia, tuition fees (only $2 per month), and donations usually amounting to $2,500 from charitable institutions at the North. But recently the trustees have had quite a windfall from the Stone estate at Malden, Mass. The widow of Mr. Stone, who, by her husband’s will, was made the almoner of his bounties, has given $50,000 to the University. They have fallen heir also to another sum exceeding $10,000, from the estate of the late R. R. Graves, of New York, who had previously donated a valuable library to the University. With these subsidies it is proposed to erect immediately another College building between the two present structures, to cost $40,000, and a large addition to the Girls’ Dormitory, which will include a dining-room capable of seating 300 pupils. The estimated cost of this improvement is $15,000. The library of the Institute comprises 4,000 volumes, most of them excellent selections, with a balance on hand in cash of $700 for further augmentation, derived from the interest on the permanent library endowment, which is $5,000. It will be seen from the above that the Atlanta University is on the high-road to prosperity. * * * * *
