! Down TowE BoYs' HIGH 8cHooL We vester
day attended the interesting ceremony Of The ex
hfbition at the Boys High School in st. Phflfn
| street. Second District, and must say that we
were pleased even beyond our expectations,
| The exercises commenced at 10 A. VI. The hall
was tastefully arranged and over the head OF
! each young candidate for honors was displayed
as he recited his selected OF original piece upon
the platform the well chosen motto, q Ezcelsior.''
! The senior class of this High School numbers
I fifteen scholars. OF these four have already
ceived diplomas namely H.. Bohus, John Davis,
| r. Prattina and Tb. Mnnel.
/ The young gentlemen who received diplomas
yesterday were John Long, Charles Stark, John
| auherin, Aug Barckhart, John Meyer Richard
Byrnes, Richard Devonshire, Thomas Finn, Geo.
1 Purves.
Certificates were issued to Samuel Fitzhugh
and Charles GeaIback.
The attendance at the exhibition was qute nu-
merous and was especially graced by galaxy of
ladies'. It need not be said that this was quite
consolation to the reporter who unlike our father
of the public schools" has not an inordnate love
of watching the gunuery practice acquired by
persistent efforts to teach the young idea
how to shoot"
4 The vaedictory was delivered by Geo. Parviss
and vel chosen, quiet, unaffected effort it was.
1t seemed to be the natural eHusion of the heart,
aud was listened to with marked attention.
A sprighty boynarned Peter Aurray, delirereda
very spirited answer to young Ir. Purvis, and one
that gave general satisfaction. His elocution was
