N. C.-The annual examination of this pop
ular and fourishing Seminary were of unusu-
al interest this year, and the exercises n
merously attended, The proficiency and
thoroughncss of the pupils were marked by
all who attended their examination. The large
audience assembled on Thursday was sadly
disappointed in not hearing the literary adj
dress which was to have been delivered by
Victor G. Barringer, ESQ. A note from him
announced his unexpected inability to be
present. We know we were deprived of
a rich treat. Silver goblets were awarded
twelve of the girls q am tired o fseeing such
denominated young ladies' of the Junior
class who had no demerit mark and for an aver

same conditions. There were sixteen grad
yates, uponawhom the worthy and energetic
Principal bestowed Diplomas, and with them
gold medals were bestowed upon nine O
them whose average scholarship exceeded 81
and had passed through the year without
dement's. Prof Sterling's farewell address!

rental affection he felt for those who had 81
long been under his charge, and his a~nxiet.
for their future welfare. | neglected to stat
Ex-Gov. Morehead arose and in the name &
the Senior class presented Prof Sterlinl
with a large and beautiful silver Salver, as
token of their affectionate regard. The pres
ent was evidently unexpected, and so ovel
whelmed him with feeling as to unfit hI
for making scarce a word ofreply. And thu
closed these brilliant exercises. VERTTAS
