COMMENCEMENT OF THE USIvERsIrv.-The an
nual commenc ement Of the New York University
took place yesterday. The procession, comprising
the officers and students, and large number of dis
tinguishcd gentlemen, formed at half past nine
o'clock, in front Of the University, and moved from
thence te Mercer street church. The University
has had some serious obstacles to contend with, in
addition to the difficulties usually incident to the
establishment OF a new institution; but are happy
to learn that, through the wisdom and prudence Of
Mr. Freinghuysen the very able Chancellor, assist
ed by the faculty, il has nearly surmounted them all
and the income Of the Institution is now fully ade-
quate to its expenses.
The Church was crowded TO Overlooking, by a
very intelligent and fashionable audience, before the
arrival Of the procession. There an immense
assembage of ladies present, and they listened with
edifying attention throughout.
The exercises were commenced by the Chancel-
Tor, who read portion of the Scriptures, in i'm
pressive manner, and made very schema and APP
propriate prayer. The orchestra, under the direc-
ton of Mr.. Dodworth, then performeda noble piece
Of music.
The Latin Sautatory was delivered by Mr. Van
Wyck, of Poughkeepsie, and a very credit
able production. The elocution good, and the
ladies did not intermit their attention because the
address was unintellgible to most Of them. The
English Salutatory, by Mr. Dodge, the Grafton on
the choice of profession, and, in fact, the several
addresses, and the poems, were all verify Of the
institutions, and honorable to the young gentlemen
After the exercises, on the part Of the students
were completed with the exception Of the valedic-
tory, the Chancellor conferred the degree Of Bach
elor of Arts, on the following candidates -
Leonard Bachelor, Edward William Stuart
Jerony mus A. DaN export, Charles Taylor,
Robert Dodge, William A. Thompson.
Henry Bond Elliott William Elliott Trask, Z.
Thomas Picon Miner, Nicholas Van Brunt,
William Salter, William Van Wyck.
Henry Martyr Scudder, Ashbel Green Vermilye.

The Valedictory, by Mr.. Taylor, Of Auburn, was
a chaste, finished, and spirited composition.
The exercises through bout were highly CRAFTY ing
