COMMENCEMENT AT MouNr Union COLLEGE.
"A correspondent sends US the following:
The recent Commencement Exercises of this
new and enterprlsing College were very inter.
eating throughout. The public examination of
the classes, the reunion Of the College Alumni,
and the anniversaries of the literary societies,
attracted large audiences, and reflected much
credit upon the parties concerned.
The Commencement Exercises came Oft on
Thursday, the 1lth inst, and were listened to
with marked attention. The orations were de-
livered in a very distinct and impressive man.
ner, rejecting tmuch credit upon the whole
class, consisting Of twelve members. President
Hartshorn delivered an able and interesting
baccalaureate address on Female Educetion.--
The Bachelors degree was then conferred upon
the members of the senior class, and the degree
of Master Of Arts was conferred, in cuTsu, upon
A. Baker, s. G. Hair, Geo. Hester and ]. w.
Gillaspie. The degree of A. M. was conferred,
honoris causa, upon Josiah Hsrtzell of Canton,
w. B. Watkins, of Wellsburg, Va, and o. p.
Brown, of Ravenna. We learn from the late
catalogue that the citizens of Mount Union,
which is q retired, healthy and moral village
near Alliance Station, Stark county, Ohio, have
recently donated $l3 900 for the erection of Q
new College edifce. The Institution seems to
be In very prosperous condition, with faculty
of eeven able teachers, receives students of both
sexes upon the same terms, and can accommo.
date two hundred students with furnished rooms
to board themselves, or In clubs at private fam
lilies, ct rates suited to the pockets Of young
men and ladies who are relying, these hard
times, upon their own resources for means of
acquiring good education.
During the past year some two hundred and
thirty teachers were in attendance, receiving
daily drills in the Normal Department, pretain-
to the theory and practice of teaching, as need
ed In the school room. The sessions begin on
the first Tuesday Of August, November and
March. Tuition rates from four to five dollars
per quarter. Self boarding has averaged fifty
Ave cents per week during the past year, and
boarding in private families can be had for
81 IS per week. ~ 1i,,sS -',5s,.s. I.-
In the midst of our political agitatious we
must not, II We would preserve good govern.
ment, overlook the rights of youth, or the edu-
cational interests Of our country.

H..EtI.- .I @ a-.7 GRAFTON, July lT.s
The advance skirmishers of the Grand Ar
my entered Fairfax Court House this after
noon, and found the enemy had fed. Official
dispatches to Gen. Scott, received tonight,
state that the, main division Of the Federal
troops occupy Flint Hill and Arrandalo, but
three miles from Fairfax. ~. l..lg be- -
Con. Mansfield has q dispatch that several
regiments Of Federal troops are in Fairfax.
The rebel camp was surprised, Q mile north
west of Fairfax, by skirmishersa Thinking 1t
was the advance of the main body of the Ma
tional troops, they burned their tents, left some
baggage, and retreated. II is the opinion here,
in Official quarters, that the enemy will make q
decided stand only ct Manassas junction. There
is every indication that the movement toward
Manassas Junction will be made by Saturday.
Congress will not adjourn this week. The
Tariff bids fair to elicit much debate, as also
the Army bill in the Senate. But few visited
Congress to day, the people remaining in the
streets and hotels, amid much excitement, await
ing news from Fairfax. r4 ~ a-a .scI
The streets presented great changes, being
free from soldiers for the fret time in nearly
three months. -..-.---------------------------

Looked intO-1 lao sweeping Charges
Against The Army Thieves, made BY
Van Wyck.
WASHINGTON, July Ill was profoundly
dull here to day. The Senate occupied all day
disputing about army rations, horse feed, etc.,
in connection with the pay of army officers.
The House had q skirmish about granting the
corruption investigating committee power TO in.
vestigate all contracts entered into by any Of
the Departments, in connection with this war.
The House voted, by two-thirds majority, to
give the committee full power, and to sit during
tho recess. Many Republicans kicked, and
many more lodged. Pennsylvanians nearly all
voted against the measure, of course to shield
Cameron. s.....f- ...-a Hrv
Van Wyck, radical Republican, is chairman
of the committee of Investigation, and declar-
ed that contractors had plundered the treasury
on system of audacity and wickedness with
out parallel. He said, not only here, but where
he had thought nothing but honesty and patriot
ism existed, In Cincinnati, there was contract
executed for hats ,at fifteen dollars dozen,
when they could be bought In open market for
ten. The House spent the remainder of the
day over the tariff bill, but did nothing. No
adjournment probably this week. ,,.
The city is excited by flying rumors about
what the army has done at and about Fairfax
Court House, but nothing authentic Is reported
at the War Department. ...n SIGMA.
