EXAMINATIONS iirst Annual Examination of
the Clarksville Female Academy, : began on last
Monday, and is still in progress This is an occa-
sion Of deep interest to our citizens, who manifest
their pleasure by thronging the halls Of the Acade
my from day TO day. This school has been in pro-
gress but collegiate year. and its present pros
perity strikes us.with surprise and admiration
BY reference to the Catalogue, it win be seen that
t'oO hundred and eighteen have been matriculated
during the year.
The Examination of the students seems to be car
ried on in the most thorough manner. And we
have the positive assurance of the gifted President
that such is the case. He says the pupils know not
in what part Of the books studied they are to be
examined. The young ladies answer promptly and
accurately all the questions propounded and appear
perfectly eonversant with that they have studied
From the Preparatory Department up to the highest
classes all give sufficient evidence of deep and thor
ough training The entire examination proves, that
whilst the pupils have studiid hard, the teachers
have spared no pains TO advance them The School
is an honor to our city-would be to any-and of
it our citizens justly proud.
The Concerts on Monday night and again on
Wednesday night were brilliant exhibitions of mu-
steal talent. The classes under Misses Barr and
Andrews, as that also under Mrs. MDaniel show
that every attention has been given to this depart
ment of learning The former on Monday night,
as the latter on Wednesday night, discoursed most
eloquent music to a crowded hall. For hours the
vast audience was charmed and delighted, and at a
late hour dispersed, pleased with themselves and all
the world besides. Those performances were not
only highly credtable to the young ladies, but
Elected much honor on their accomplished teachers.
The Concert of Mrs. Chandler comes off tonight
at precisely o'clock.

ICE-MAKTNG ny STEAM.-The Corresponding Sec
Rotary of the GAINESVILLE Ice Company has kindly
favored us with the following extract which de-
scrbcs Mr.. Harrsons wonderful invention. Mr.
Wilkie says;
"The refrigeration is produced by the evapora-
ton of ether in a vacuum; and the popularity OF
the invention consists in the arrangements for evap
Grating the ether at a low temperature, and con-
densing it at higher precisely the reverse of or
binary evaporatng processes. The ether is con-
tanned in airtight vessels relieved from the pres
sure of the atmosphere. The cylinder in the center
of the apparatus is fitted with valves, that each
stroke of the piston wthdraws quantity of ether
vapoF from the lei-hand vessels and forces it into
II condensing vessel on the right hand. Where the
vapor is raised an intense cold is pruduced where
it is condensed, corresponding degree of heat il
evolved. The ether, after resuming the liquid
state returns by sef-regulating valve to the evap
oratiug vessel and the process thus continues unn
terruptedly, without requiring any attention, ant
with the smallest waste of material.
"The expense of the process is merely that Of tn,
motive power; the ice is formed in block moulds
of any size required, This invention is invaluable
in hot climates where ice is priceless luxury, ant
has TO be transported from Northern chimes at i'm
mense cost, and is then only obainable ON the sea
board whilst by this new method il can he mad
anywhere at an outside cest of two dollars and
half per ton, The motive power is small steam
engine, and the size you enquire about is capable
turning out ten thousand pounds daily. The utilit,
of the machine does not rest on making ice alone
for it is applicable to the cooling of meats an,
wines, and in the sailing of provisions in hot eli
mates and many other purposes where a reduction

The CrOps.--We learn from our farming
friends that the corn crop of this county is very
promising; the wheat crop will be an average one,
but oats are seriously injured if not destroyed by
rust.
From our exchanges we make the following sum.
mary of the prospects of the coming crop
In McNairy county rust has appeared in the oat
crop and the Wig Banner says if it prevails to as
great extent as last summer, it will he squaly
times about getting seed for another crop.
In Rutherford county there will be n tolerablc
fair average wheat crop--also in Cannon county.
In Maury county the oat crop is likely to prove
complete failure-wheat said to be good.
In Sumner county the oat crop badly injured by
rust and wheat will not be over half crop.
In Carroll county, oats total failure--wheat suf
fering from rust and scab.
In Giles county, wheat average-oats will h,
worth nothing From almost every portion of tn,
State, and especially in West Tennessee, we Learn
that the rust is destroying the cat crop did las
year.
The Knoxville Wing has information that tn,
wheat crop of some of the counties of lower Eas
middle section it is promising and in the uppe
counties, except in some cases where it was dam
aged by the fly, it will be good.
The Louisville journal says that the rust has ap
pcared in the oats in that section. The Maryland
papers notice its appearance in the wheat.
Our Alabama country exchanges speak very fiat
tcringly of the crops in that State.
Crops of all kinds promise well in Illinois.
The New York Courier and Enquirer estimate
that the coming crop of wheat will not he less THAI
two hundred million bushels, or fifty million NOR
than the yield of last year. while an unusually larg
breadth of land has been seeded to corn, which a
present is very forward, with every prospect of
good crop.
Our Texas exchanges give the most hOttering ac
counts of the wheat crop,

1t is sad thing for the mother to be taken from

summons has been unexpected and the departure
hasty. The sense of Loneliness and desolation left
behind, brushes the heart in its vain effort to fill

This blow which has fallen so heavily upon her
household is felt acutely by this whole community,
and her grave, has been believed by its tears Mrs.
Roberts has been known and loved for many long
years as messenger of mercy in this neighborhood.
No place was too bumble-no time too inconven-

been trying to follow the example of Him who
went about doing good. Wherever there was sick
ness or distress or death-there she wouldpromptly
go to aid by her assistance, and to advise by her
counsels. But God has taken her-let the people
mourn and let them mourn "as one mourneth for
