The committee recommend the appointment, at an early day, of at least three Professors; and are prepared to nominate to the Board, at any suitable time, two men for such Professorships. They have before them several other prominent names, but desire to take all the time that may be properly allowed, to make assurance doubly sure, that the best men are obtained. If the Board shall see fit to lodge with the committee the power to employ, temporarily, such additional teachers as may be needed for the spring term, it will allow nearly three-fourths of a year more to prosecute such inquiries as may help to fill, much more safely, these important places in the Institution ; and the trial of some men in the spring term, will permi t us to test their qualifications, before any permanent appointment.
