The salutatory in Latin was far above the
average of salutatories; it was well written
and eloquently delivered. Putnam lost none
OF his reputation as one ofthe first declaimers
in college.
John G. Calhoun was treated in an able
manner, and although the sentiments express
ed were not those of majority of the audi
ence, yet they were advocated with great
energy.
"Wallenstein." Gilmore showed thorough
appreciation of the merits of his hero, and
though laboring under the disadvantages of
biographical subject, did not lose the attention
of the audience for a moment.
"The Compensations of Life," by Haines,
was very finely delivered.
Forgotten Brave Men," by Pease, was one
of the finest parts of the evening; the deliv-
cry, however, was not SO good as in some 9TH
er parts.
"City of Tenochtitlan." Trufant delivered
this as IL he meant what he said and intended
the audience should believe it. The part was
highly descriptive and received undivided at
tention.
All the Junior parts were well delivered.
The prizes for excellence in composition
were awarded to Beverage and Pease.

A GRATUTTY TO
Wool.Growers and Stock Raisers


Who should understand at this time the great ad
vantages to be gratuitously enjoyed by them in
Northern Missouri.
Any quantity of superior hay can be cheaply and
readily obtained without trespassing upon the rights
of any for IL the grass not from the prairies
and gathered 1t rots Is destroyed by fire. But lit
tie hay is needed, the winters are mild and short
and the "blue grass of the country furnishes ex-
cellent grazing even in mid winter. How long this
opportunity for gratuitous and superior pssturage
and fodder will continue, 1t is impossible to tell
doubtless the rapid march of freedom will cut it
short by inducing an immense emigration but as the
Railroad Company and nonresident spectators own
all the land, except a small proportion occupied by
very sparse population the strong probability that
Wool Growers and large Stock Raisers can enjoy
the present facilities long enough with proper enter
prise, to accumulate independent fortunes before the
present vacant lands purchased and settled so as
to circumscribe ample ranges for their stock Thus
poor men can use and virtually larger and more
productive farms in Missouri than rich men do or
ever can in the Eastern States
