Music in Fourteenth street, the Hon. CHAs. KING,
LII. d., President in the Chair At 10 o'clock, the
hour announced for the beginning of the exercises the
Academy was crowded with ladies from parquet to
dome, and the hundreds Of boquets which they had
provided for the occaaion filed the place with most de-
ghtful fragrance But little did those kind mothers,
and sisters. and sweethears know of tie warllke as
sault which awaited them, and the withering blast
which was as yet in the bosom of the learned Presi-
dent That was left for future revelation.
Shortly after 10 O'Clock, the President and Faculty,
the Trustees of the Institution, and humber OF its
alumni entered the edce in procession and took their
places on tie stage Among them were the Hon.
Hamilton Fish, Lfesdent of the Board Of Trustees;
the Hon. Guliaa G. Vsrpanck, the Rev. Dr. Leonard,
the Rev. DR.. De Witt, the Rev. DR.. Gulon, the Rev.
Dr. Morris, the Rev. Dr. Spencer, the Rev stephen

the Hon s. b. Ruggles, the Hon. Frederick A. Conk-
ling, Peter Cooper, esq.,. Frederick Depeyster, esq.;
George f. Allen, esq. H. NJ. Pierce, ESQ., Principal OF

The musical appointments were under the direction
of r. b. Helmsmuller. .

Before announcing the first name on the prog anne,
the President addressed bis fair audience IN tie circles
md the stalls on the importance of reformation IN
reference to one of the customs which, although OF
comparatively recent origin, none the lees dl-tase,
full and ont Of place. lie referred to the practice OF
throwing fowery laurels at the feet OF young men

a cnstom WIS efeininate in tire extreme was 1t IN
keeping with that good taste which might be observed
ct time when the weghtier rewards Of learning and
collegiate enterprise being conferred by the con-
stituied authorities. He hoped that the audience
would omit ths part of the performance that occa.

to have delivered the Latin Salutoy and Mr. Albert

EARLY LIFE IN oREGoS.

1t was in the summer of 1913 that a
young chief of the Walla Wallas one day
entered the fort, and appropriated to
himself some articles Of little value-a
piece of wood, from a lot OF which, lying
therein, the Indians Lad been in the
habit of taking pieces whenever they
chose for the purpose Of making whip
handles. The practice had been strictly
forbidden, as the wood was Of a peculiar
kind, and of service to the company. 1t
was in expostulation with tie young
fchief, that a young clerk in The oompa-
ny's employ received signal affront,
which occasioned rencontre, aud the
chastisement Of the Indian. At this
time there were, perhaps, a dozen whites
in the fort, and although the buildings
were enclosed by stockades, yet there
were no means of efectually closing the
entrances. The stockade was Of recent
constructions and the gates had net been
made, consequently, they were, compar-
atively speaking, in defenseless situa-
ton. On the next day the Indians,
some of each tribe, crowded into the
fort, to revenge themselves in the death
of Mr.. T.. Talking could achieve
nothing; every consistent means was re-
sorted to in vain to appease' the turbu-
lent multitude. The men belonging to
the fort were at work in the field, even
could their presence have effected any
good in the issue.
The Indians were brandishing their
weapons, and seemed to be fully aware
of their superiority, and disposed to ex-
ercise it in summary manner. Already
had tIr. Mckinley suffered indign;ties,
and young Twas defending himself
as well as he was able, when Mckinley
started from the crowd that SURROUNDED
him, passed into the adjoining store
room, seized keg of powder, a steel and
flint, ani returning, placed tie keg in
the centcr of the room, and knocked in
its head.
Now, said he, "kill himif you will, "
pointing to T, but at that moment,
[ kill you all Two CT Us can die when
there are many braves to die with US.
The proposed slaughter was on too
extensive scale for the Indians; panic
seized them they turned in dismay and
rushed precipitately from the fort.

Of mischief is ended, should go down
the tide of time with Arnold and Burr,

no intermediate pugatory y'-nothing
less than damnation awaits here and
hereafter.
Il know not to what class of lawless
outcasts to liken these unconsecrated
demons now in power at Montgomery,

THE GREAT LAKES,

The first white persons who penetra-
ted into the Upper Lake region
were two young fur traders who left
NJ Montreal for that purpose in 1854, and
remained two years among the Indian
tribes on those shores We are not in
formed of the details of this journey;
but it appears that they returned with
information relative to Lake Superior,
and perhaps Lake Michi gan and Green
Bay, for in 1869 the fur traders are
known to have extended their traffic to
that bay. The first settlement Of Wis
cousin may be dated in 1868, when
Claude Allouez established mission at
La Point on Lake Superior This was
before Philadelphia was founded by
William Penn.
The first account Of voyage on Lake
Michigan was given by Nicholas Perrot,
who, accompanied By some Pottawatta-
mics, PASSED from Green Bay to Chicago,
in 1870. Two years afterward the
same voyage Was undertaken by Allouez
and Dablon. They stopped at the
mouth of the Milwaukee River, then
occupied by Kickapoo Indians. In
1873, Fathers Marquette and Joliet
went from Green Bay to the Neenah or
Fox River, and descending the Wiscon-
sin, discovered the Mississippi on the
18th of June
In 1879, La Sale made his voyage
up the lakes in the Griffin, the first yes
sci built above the Falls Of Niagara
This vessel was about sixty tons burden,
and carried five guns and thirty four
men La Sale loaded her at Green
Bay with cargo Of furs and skins, and
she sailed on the 18th of September for
Niagara, where she never arrived, nor
was any news of her ever received
Thus the want Of harbors on Lake
Michigan began to be felt nearly two
hundred years ago, and the fate of the
Griffin was only precursor of many
similar calamities since.

Steam Navigation on English Canals.

1t is rather singular that steam navi-
cation on American canals should have
been unsuccessful, as described on page
thirty mine of the present volume Of the
Scientific Ap,eric0n. while in England it
has become so successful as to reduce
the cost Of conveying freight no less than
twenty-five psr cent. The Grand juno
tion Canal Company, .which formerly
used to tow their boats with horses,
have dispensed with animal power, and
now use steam alone.
There are five thousand miles Of ca
nal in Great Britain, representing cap
ital of about $500, 600, 900, and since the
adoption of steam as the propelling
agent, the traffic increased last year
twenty-five thousand tons. The most
peculiar features in the steamboats, which
are now employed by the Grand June
ton Company plying between London
and birmingham or Manchester, is an
improved form of screw propeller, called
the ''wiggle tail, which has the advau
tage of Keeping all the disturbance of
the water Immediately behind the stern
of the boat, instead Of spreading them
right and left The effect of this i'm
provement is at once to secure the canal
banks from being damaged by the wash,
and to economic the motive power.

@Those who imagine that since the
secession of the Cotton States from the
Union, all the suffering from the crisis
is confined to the trading and manufac-
turing North, should observe such
paragraphs as the following from the
Aberdeen Conservative, paper published
in the northern part of Mississippi:
We attended the Sheriff sale Of
Monday last, and were perfectly aston
ished to see such sacrifice of property
One gentleman actually purchased 100
odd acres of land for $40; another
bought a half interest in a brick law
office for $50; $l25 buggy was sold for
$50, and other property sold equally
low.

The Result OF a Century Change.

TIE Result OF a Century Change.
One hundred years ago there was not
a single white man in Ohio, Kentucky,
Indiana or Illinois Territories Then,
what is now the most fiourishing part in
America, was as little known as the
country round the motintaiiis Of the
moon. Itwas notuntl 1869, the gallant
and adventurous Boone left his home in
North Carolina to become the first set
tier of Kentucky. The pioneer Of Ohio
did not settle Till twenty years after that
time \ hundred years ago Canada be
louccd to France, and the whole popu-
lation OF tie United States did not ex-
cced a million and half Of people. y
hundred years ago the great Frederick
CT Prussia was peItorming those great
expluits which have made him immortal
in military annals, and with his little
monarchy wGss sustaining single handed
contest with lussia, Austria and France
the three great poEers Of Europe com
birel.
a hundred years ago the Lnitqi
States was the most loyal part of the
British Empire, and on the political
horizon no speck indicated the strug
giles which within score OF years
thereafter established the great Rcpub~
lie Of the world a hundred years ago
there were but four newspapers III Amer
lea; steam engines had not been i'm
agined, and railroads and teiegraphs
had not entered into the remotest con-
ceptions of man. When We come to
look back through the vista Of history,
we find that the century which has
passed has been allotted to more impor-
tant events, in their bearing upon the
happiness Of the world, than almost any
which has elapsed since the creation.

THE OTHER WORLD.

BY HARRIET BEECHER STOWE.
1t lies around us like cloud
A world we do not see;
Yet the sweet closing of an eye
May bring us there to be.
Its gentle breezes fan our cheek;
Amid our worldly cares
It's gentle voices whisper love
And mingle with our prayers.
Sweet hearts around us throb and beat,
Sweet helping hands are stirred,
And palpitates the veil between
With breathing almost heard. .--
The silence-awful, sweet and calm
They have no power to break;
For mortal wold DIS are not for them
To utter or pertake.
So thin, so soft, so sweet they glide,
So near to press they seem
They seem to lull us to our rest,
And melt into our dream.
And in the hush Of rest they bring,
'Tis easy now to see
How lovely and how sweet pass
The hour of death may be.
To close the eye, and close the ear,
Wrapped in trance Of bliss,
And gently drawn in loving arms,
To swoon to that--frcm this.
Scarce knowing if we wake or sleep,
Scarce asking where we arei
To feel all evil sink away,
All sorrow and all care.
Sweet souls around us! watch us still,
Press nearer to our side;
Into our thoughts, into our prayers,
With gentle helpings glide.
Let death between us be as naught,
dried and van shed stream;
Your joy be the reality,
Our suffering life the dream.

Right to be Romantic.

We have a right to expect Of the
young certain degree of youth; which
is very much needed. If you can cut
off the side brush of a tree, you weaken
the stump. 1t may look a little better
but the leaves provide the nutriment
for the tree. There is certain amount
of youthfulness in man, like the side
brush of Il tree. American youth have
the right of imaginative liberty, of the
liberty of feeling and impulse.
The man who sees things just as
they are, is generally meagre and poor
specimen of a man What you see de-
pends upon what you bring to see it
with. One man sees with his eyes,
hears with his ears, tastes with his
mouth, smells with his nose, feels and
and touches with his hands, and that is
all. 1t is material that he estimates
Another man sees more than the eye
can take in, or the ear, or the tongue or
the nose or the hand. [ hold that we
should encourage that romance by
which We may see more than the outside
of things-H. " Beecher.

WHO SAW THE sTEER.


Tho richest thing Of the season. says
the Newburyport Herald, came off the
other day in the neighborhood of the
market. The greenest Jonathan i'm
aginable, decked out in slouched hat,
IA long blue frock, and pair of cowhide
shoes, big as gondolas, with huge whip
under his arm, stalked into billiard
saloon, where half dozen persons were
improving the time in trundling round
the ivories, and after recovering ffoTa
his first surprise at the to him singular
aspects of the room, inquired if "any of :
EN- had seen stray steer affirming
that "the blasted critter got away as he
came though town with his drove t'other
day, and he hadn't seen nothin' on him
since The bloods denied all knowl-
edge Of the animal in question, and with
much sly winking at each other, pro-
ceedcd to condole with him on his loss
in the most heartfelt manner. He
watched the game with much interest,
as he had evidently never seen or heard
Of anything Of the kind before, and
created much amusement by his demon
strations Of applause when good shot
was made-"J erusalemn: being favorite
interjection. At last he made bold to
request the privileges of trying his skill,
when he sets the crowd in a roar by his
awkward movements. However he
gradually got his hand in, and played as
we'll as could be expected for greenhorn.
All hands now began to praise him,
which so elated him that he actually ha-
gan to think himself second Phslah,
and he offered to bet a dollar with his
opponent, which, of course, he lost =
The loss and the laugh SO irritated him
that he offered to play another game
and bet two dollars, which he pulled out
of big roll-for it seems his cattle had
sold we'll and he was quite flush. This
bet he also lost, as the fool might have
known he would, when mad as March
hare, he pulled out a fifty spot, the
largest bill lie had, and offered to bet
that on another game. The crowd
mustered round and raised money
enough to cover it, and at it they went
again, when, by some strange turn of
luck, the gieeny won. He now offered
to put up the hundred he won against
another hundred. Ofcourse he could
not blunder into another game, so they
could now win back what they
had lost, and fcece the fellow of
his own roll besiles. They sent
out for a famous player, who hap
pened to. have money enough TO bet with,
another game was played which Jona-
than Won. Another hundred was also
raised and bet and won; and it was not
until he had blundered through halfa
dozen games, and by some uuaccounta4
BE run Of luck, won them all, draining
the pockets of his opponents, Of about
four hundred dollars, that they began
to smell a very large 'mice. When
every body got tired of playing, gawky
pulled his frock on over his head, took
his whip under his arm anil walked qui-
etly out, turning round at the door aid
"Gcntlemen, if yoa should
happen to see anything Of that steer.
wish you let me know" At last ac-
counts they had not seen the steer, hut
they came to the conclusion that they
had seen the elephant
