is remembered thatowiug to the dinuutiou Of The
usual number Of students. some Of ,ha friends u

During the hours allotted to Tie examination of

ton, fact announced At the close Of the even
ing exercises
There were present teachers Of schools Of almost
every grade, from different and distant sections
Of the country. Their united testimony to the
ability and faithfulness Of lie several teachers.
was highly complimentary, and, as may be sup
posed, particularly agreeable to the venerable
Principal on whom deyolyes the chief responsible
ity ofscloctions and appointments Of the corps
Another feature Of interest and worthy Of re-
mark, was the order and quiet which generally
prevailed in the chapel "a great improvement
on many former similar gatherings when the
good nature Of examiner and examined, was often
imperiled by the irregular movements, and inelc-
giant communications Of spectators. Such aprac-
tice is not in harmony with Tie courtesy due 10
the occasion. The same was characteristic Of the
exhibition in the evening . pretty good proJI
that ibe ticket system is meeting with public e.
yor.
Doubtless all the real friends Of Burr Seminary
would rejoice to sec the surroundings more in
unison with the intelligence, zeal, and industry
oftcachcrs and pupils--n fact more in accordance
With the mental standard and progress, which
pertains to it.
The solidity Of the building Is such that the con
irast, twenty-five years ago, with the appearance
Of things elsewhere in town, was hardly 10 be no.
iiced, but such an advance has been made, that
i seems as if the good taste of the citizens, and of
the Corporation, should be put in rcquisiton, to
promote Improvements, which would be highly
promotiye Of their own pecuniory interests, aside
rom extending the benefits Of such an institution |
