She began her duties yesterday. The need of another teacher was due to the increased enrollment, the matriculation having gone up to 268, and this action was recommended to the board by Mr. McDANIEL, president of the school. Miss BRITTAIN is one of our most deservedly popular young ladies, and has held several responsible positions in the best schools in Alabama and Georgia.
