KishacOqu1IIas Seminary,

The summer session of KishacoQuillas
Seminary and Normal Institute, ended
on Friday evening, Sept. 14th, with u
spirited contest between the.two flourish
ing literary societies connected with the
institution. The large and intelligent
audience, assembled on this occasion, was
well entertained during the evening by
the reading of two more than usually eX-
cellent manuscript papers, several essays,
Oratlons, and two tirst-rate Debates inter-
spersed with appropriate vocal and instru
mental music. Most of the speakers of
the evening, especially in debate acquitted
themselves with credit; the best original
oratiOn, to our way of thinking, was de-
livered by J. Foster Bell; and in debate
the efforts of Levi Carver, r. A. Patton,
w. y. Huey, e. w. Rupert, ]. G. Yoder
and others, were of noticeable merit. AS
usual the singing of Miss Florence Long
well was admirable.
