' THE SEPTEMBEE FAIK.—PREMIUM LIST. 
Owing to the inadvertent omission of a most import- 
ant portion of the prizes for Horses, in the List published 
in our April number, we herewith insert a correct 
schedule. It will be seen that in this, as in all other de- 
|)artments, the Society’s awards are most discriminating 
and liberal. We hope to see the fine stock of Georgia 
^nd her sister States fully represented at the Fair, w’hich, 
it will be recollected, is to be held in Atlanta from the 
lllhto the 14th of September:

DEATH or DB. WILLIAM TEBEELL, 
We regret to learn, (says the Savannah Gimri>r,) that 
Dr. W^iLLiAM Terrell, well knowm, not only as an en- 
lightened agriculturist, but as one of the wealthiest and 
most public spirited citizens of Georgia, died at his resi- 
dence in Sparta, Hancock county, at half-past one o’clock, 
on the morning of the 4th of July. The deceased has en- 
titled himself to the gratitude of Georgia and of posterity, 
by the donation of twenty thousand dollars to the Athens 
College, for the establishment of a Professorship of Agri- 
culture. Called by his name, it will, for all time, be his 
monument. Speaking of this munificent endowment, we 
remarked, last January : 
“It is due to the history of Agriculture as a Science in 
this country, that we record the fact that no other person 
in this great Republic has given for immediate use, to in- 
crease and diffuse rural knowledge, more than one-fourth 
the sum donated by the patriotic and distinguished foun- 
der of the first Professorship of Agriculture in the Southern 
Slates. A similar Professorship was established a few 
years since in Yale College, on the gift of $5,01)0 by Mr. 
Morton, whosfe son was appointed to fill the new chair 
thus created. No' paternal or family lie has, in iiny way, 
been associated with the munihecnce of Dr. TerrelL 
View the transaction in whatever light we may, nothing 
discovered but the wish and the effort of a noble mind 
to arrest that tendency to impoverish the soil, which 
forms so striking a feature of American Agriculture.” 
The following letter from .Dr. Terheli,, to the Trustees 
of the Georgia University, states, in a few words, the pur- 
pose of the endowrheru ; 
“To aid in this great enterprise,” (of preserving from 
destruction the lands of the Southern States by bad til- 
lage.) “if you will allow me to call it such, I propose to 
yojur honorable body to give to Franklin College, Boipds 
of the State to the amount of tweiQty thousand dollars, 
the annual interest of which shall be applied permanently 
as compensation for a Professor, whose duty it shall be to 
deliver, in t!ie College, course df^lectures during its 
terms, on ‘Agriculture as a Science; the practice and im- 
provemant of different Peopje ; on|Cjiernistry and Geolo- 
gy, so far as they may be useful in Agriculture; on Ma- 
nttres, Analysis of Soils and on Domestic Economy, par- 
ticuhtriy referring to the Southern States the lectures to 
be free.” • 
We have no material^' from which to sketch the life of 
this model citizen. A native of VtTilkes, when a yt^ng 
man he removed Hancock county, y^hich he repeated- 
ly represented in the Legislature of Georgia. Later ia
