STATE UNIVERSITY-
The Trustees of the State University have fully organized themselves by making a choice of the necessary officers; and have opened a correspondence with eminent literary men in the east for the purpose of securing the services of some gentlemen well qualified to act as a professor of the University; and design to commence operation as soon as practicable after such professor is obtained.
