A Gift of $30,000.

The Boston papers have an announcement that by the will of the late Rev. Frederick Frothingham, of Milton, Massachusetts, the sum of $30,000 is left to Harvard College for the endowment or enlargement of a professorship in Ecclesiastical History. No official announcement of the gift has yet been received at the Office, although it is earnestly hoped that the news may prove true. Mr. Frothingham graduated in '49, and was a devoted friend to the college.
