yearspast, and during the last two years have been associated with
him aa an officer of this institution. I have found him excellently
tilted in all respecte to be an instructor of youth. His industry, de-
cision, and patient good temper qualify him in a high degree as a
governor ot the young, while his accurate scholarship and untiring
zeal render him equally suecessful es a teacher. In conyonitting their
children to the instruction of Mr. Ives, parents may (tA the most

perfectly competent to all he undertakes, and who will look with the
