Jefferson, the great friend of home instruction, was its patron. It M^as incorporated in 1802 by the then territorial legislature of Mississippi, and in the following year Congress made to it a grant of one township, or about twenty-three thousand acres of land. Had the resources of this college been husbanded, and its usefulness recog- nized and encouraged, it might have dispensed a vast amount of learn- ing, and boasted to-day of an endowment equal to half a million of dollars. Instead of thi...s it has languished for half a century — ^^starved amidst teeming wealth and gorgeous luxury. Its funds have been squandered, and to-da}^ it almost gasps for breath. Why has this been? Those who lived under the very shadow of the college refused to succor it; allowed its money to be wasted, and sent their sons and daughters to the North to be educated. In the thirty-eight years from 1802 to 1840, there were incorporated no less than one hundred and ten academies and colleges in Mississippi, male and female.
