Racine Co1lege-Commenoement Ex-
erCises

The commencement exercises of Racine Col
lege, at St. Luke's Church yesterday, were wit
messed by large concourse of our citizens. At
u o'clock ?. NJ, the procession was formed in
front of the Court House consisting of several
clergymen from abroad, city officers, members
of the various professions, students and others,
and marched to the church where a very large
audience had already assembled.
Dr. Parks opened the ceremonies with pray
er.
The Te Deum was then finely sung by the
parish choir, and was followed by the salutato-
ry Grafton on the " Permanence of Words" by
Henry l.. James of Racine. a fine production
and well delivered.
The Grafton, Love Of Country by Lyons
Lanyon, OF Mineral Point, was good produc-
ton, but delivered too fast, and with little con-
ception of intonation, emphasis, and the finer
points of rhetoric.
The Grafton, Party Spirit" by r. S Morri-
son of La Porte, Ind, was rather tame, and
badly delivered, but manifested untried ability.
Then followed the Anthem " will wash my
hands in innoccncy," by the choir
Then came the orations of Masters III. i.
Dousman, OF Summit, Il. A Baldwin, of Prairie
du Chen, and j. II. II. Millett, Of Beloit, all
good or so good at least, as to promise future
emnence to the speakers. We were especially
pleased with the last by Master Millett
The valedctory, by Mr.. John Yates, was a
most worthy production. The address to the
Trustees, the Rev. President and his fellow
students was noble and touching, both in com
position and delivery.
After the anthem " The Lord shall comfort Iii
on" by the Choir, the College address was deiv-
cred by the Rev. Mr.. Capron of Kenosha. His
subject was the necessity of cutivating the
heart as well as the head the affections as well
as the intellectual faculties. This he consider
ed in a great measure to be the mothers mission.
1t was on the whole, beautiful complete and
appropriate production, and one which did hon
or to the speaker.
The degree of A. Is. was then conferred upon
II. l., James, j. ii. II. Millett, and John A.
Yates, the graduating class of the present year.
Dr. Parks then read a closing address, to the
Trustees, Students and Audience, in which he
briefly alluded to the prosperity of the College,
after which the commencement hymn was sung,
and the Benediction pronounced by Dr. Park

A REPUBLICAN CONVENTION AND NOMINA-
TIoN IN SLAVE STATE.-On Wednesday
morning last Republican convention was held
at Newport, Ky, for the purpose of nominating
candidate for Congress The meeting was
presided over by Mr.. c. G. Payne Of Covington,
the city where Mr.. Jollffe was mobbed few
weeks since. A committee on resolutions were
appointed and at an adjourned meeting in the
afternoon, reported a series, a portion of which
we subjoin:
Resotred That it is to the paramount interest
of Kentucky, if she would keep pace with the
growth and onward race of her sister States of
the West, to foster and encourage free white la
Dor, and that all her white citizens should be
free men, free to think, free to speak, and free
to vote.
ReSolred, That the existence of slavery in
Kentucky is deeply TO be regretted, and that
however much differences of opinion may exist
in regard TO the propriety Of abolishing it now,
still,,were we free from il, we would unanimous
ly oppose its introduction here; and while en-
pertaining these principles, if applicable at
home,
Rssolrcd, That we heartily adopt the pyin-
ciples of the great American Republican party,
namely - non-interference Con the part of Con-
greSS or the free StateS) i'll regard to slavery in
the sovereign states NhcTe N now GAsSNSi anu
non-eXteusion of slavery over territory now
free"
ReSolred, That we hold, with Chief Justice
Marshall, that sovereignty is inherent in the
people, and not in property.
After the adoption of the resolutions without
a dissenting voice, Mr.. CT. Payne was placed
in nomination for the State Senate, and Mr.. B.
f. Sanford was unanimously nominated for
Congress

The Commencement of our State Univer:
sity.


The commencement of the State University,
to-day, was highly creditable We have only
time for brief sketch OF the proceedings.
The procession was formed, in accordance
with the programme announced yesterday, with
the exception that Col. \. w. Dean acted as
Marshal in the absence Of Gen. Bull
The spacious interior of the Baptist Church
was crowded to its full capacity. The exercises
were opened by prayer by Rev. Mr.. Butler.
The University Choir, under the direction of
Prof. Kursteiner, furnished excellent music for
the occasion. The singing was both IN Enghsh
and German.
The SUBSEQUENT exercises consisted of original
orations The salutatory, in Latin, was by VIM.
G. Jencks, and was admirably delivered. We
have heard several familiar with such exercises
remark that they had never heard an Grafton OF
the kind pronounced in a better manner.
The next Grafton was by Sinclair w. Botkin--
subject The French Revolution" 1t was a
pleasing and well written sketch, but it was not
well committed.
Tho Relations of Man to Nature was the
subject of the Grafton by Thos. d. Coryell. 1t
was well written and well delivered.
The next was poem by Charles Fairchid
very well written, and showing considerable
power of versifcation, and containing number
of capital hits at the foiies and foibes of the
day.
Next followed an Grafton in English, by Mr.
Jencls, subject The great Brotherhood evin-
cling well disciplined mind and an ease and
grace of manner rarely witnessed on s@ch occa-
sions.
The masters Creation, by Charles T. Wake
ley on the Influence of the Physical. Conditions
Of the American Continent upon the Anglo Sax
on Character, was thoughtful and original pro-
duction.
The closing Grafton by John F. Smith-"Lib-
eral Culture, as Preparation for Professional
Eminence" 1t was followed by the yaledictory
address, also by Mr.. Smith. His Grafton mani
tested good scholarship and a vigorous, earnest
mind. He is young man of decided talent and
will make his mark.
The degree OF A. b. was conferred on Messrs.
Jenckks, Botkin, Coryell, ard Smith; that of
A NJ. on Mr. WskeIey; and the Baccalaureate
Address, in Latin. was then pronounced by tile
Chancellor MasiiSsH Journal
