Berea College is well equipped with buildings and a good corps of teachers. The Ladies’ Hall is modeled after, and about the size of, the similar building in Oberlin. Howard Hall gives excellent facilities as a boys’ dormitory. The new chapel is a model of neatness and convenience. Other and smaller buildings meet other wants, and while another edifice could be well used, yet Berea’s great need now is _endowment_; and to those who have the means, and are looking for a place to use it for the nation’s welfare and the advancement of the Redeemer’s kingdom, we can safely and unhesitatingly turn their attention to this worthy and growing institution. * * * * * TOUGALOO UNIVERSITY. African Macedonia—Usefulness and Needs—Work of Grace—Waiting for Supplies. REV. H. S. DE FOREST, TALLADEGA, ALA. A run into Mississippi, and two days spent at Tougaloo, have given me a fresh sense of the importance of our work in its entirety, and a special interest in Tougaloo. This institution, in the centre of the great cotton State, where the black soil seems the natural home of the black man, has a field as large, as needy and as hopeful as can well be desired. From Marion, Ala., at the east, to far beyond the Mississippi on the west, north from New Orleans and south from Holly Springs, each about two hundred miles away, Tougaloo sits alone, and has undisputed possession of a great, a populous, and a waiting African Macedonia, crying out, “Come over and help us.” The University, with meagre equipments and limited accommodations, is trying to answer that cry. It is doing much, very much; but how little compared with what might be done and ought to be done!
