ToUcHlNG INcIDENr.-The following touching
incident is related as having occurred at the last
commencement of Rochester University: "One
member Of the graduating class, Mr.. r. c. Fem.
OF Rochester, is totally blind. When his theme
was announced President Anderson remarked to
the audience that MIR Fem, at the close of his
junior year, in performing some chemical expert
ments III private, lost his eyesght entirely, from
the effects of an explosion, but that from uniias-
ging energy, and by aid OF devoted brother and
attached classmates, ne bad been able to complete
the studies Of the course with honor to himself
and satisfaction to his teachers He was then led
forward by his brother while there was scarcely
fearless eye IN all that vast asSemblage of near
two thousand souls. His subject was the Lost
Senses the object Of which was to demonstrate
the proposition that blindness is preferable to deaf
ress. 1t was discussed in an agreeable able and
earnest manner; after which Mr. Fem retired,
amid the prolonged applause of the audience
