For this Minnies hand must be sold.

INTERESTING CEREMONY AT DoLBEAR's CONNER.
c1AL CoLLEGE.-We attended the commencement
ceremonies of the above mentioned institution on
Saturday last, and in common with large num-
Der of persons who were present also, were much
grat6ed and interested. The honorary degree of
" Master of Accounts " was conferred upon the
following young gentlemen by the faculty of the
college: ]. R. Luckett, of Mississippi; ].
L. McCurdy, of Alabama; J. E. Griffin,
Of Mississippi; W. A. Pinkston, of Mis-
sssippi; John 7. Addison, of Texas; S.
H. BOykin, of Alabama ]. H. Crawford, of
Mississippi; W. N. Kirk, of Mississippi; j. NJ.
Burton, of Louisiana; NJ. L. Fincher, Of Mississippi
Jno. Weber, of Louisiana; S. H. Heard, of Missis-
sppi; j. A. McLelland, of Mississippi; j. r. Nc
Williams, of Mississippi The address to the
graduates was delivered by President DolDear.
That gentleman is usually an eloquent and in
structiye speaker but on this occasion he far
exceed any effort we have ever heard him
make. He spoke logically upon the immense
importance of commerce to the world in assisting
the progress of enlightenment and religion and
aiding in the development of its arts, sciences and
agricultural interests. He impressed it upon his
hearers that the calling of merchant was one
second to none among mankind, and closed by an
eloquent appeal to the graduates to become
worthy and useful members of profession which
offered such high and noble inducements.
President Dobear was followed by Mr. ]. R. Luck
EFT, of Mississippi, who had been chosen vaedicto
ran by his class. The address of this gentleman wa
highly credtabe to the class as well as to himself
eliciting frequent rounds of applause from tbs
audience. Mr.. L., appeaaed to be master of hl
subject and his diction was elegant and finished
giving evidence of high cultivation not only in
commercial matters but also in bellies lettres gen
orally. That he will do credit to his able instruc
tors and the commercial profession, can hardly be
doubted, and his selection by the class is proc
that they have Judgment and an appreciation o
talent as well as thorough knowledge of thei
profession.
With this address the ceremonies closed, and tht
assembly dispersed, well satisfied with what they
had seen and heard. We wish all success to the
young gentlemen who were so auspiciously
launched into the broad sea of commercial life
and hope that they will meet with no rocks o.
qnicksands to wreck their hopes in their voyag,
through life.

For the Crescent
The Quandary.
BY ELLIS AMMoNETTE.

Sara, dark and pale and very still,
And busted always with some task,
Thou dost not my ideal fill,
And much thou might of beauty ask
And yet thou hast subtle spell,
That makes me linger near thy side
What tbs, I'm trying now to tell
As oft before, and can't decide.
Turks it among the shadows deep
Of heavy locks so deity coiled?
Or in the dark and downward sweep
OF lashes which have ever foiled
My keenrecurring wild desire
To fix thy soft and brooding eyes,
And kindle there the flash of fire,
Electric, as in summer skies?
Breathes it in the low monotone,
OF placid words thou'rt given to speak?
Which seem like balm, though which own
Pierce me as might the vulture's beak
Or is it in the tender lines,
That melt and curve thy mouth around,
When PHYS light diyinely shines,
Or thou some source of mirth hast found
Sometimes think thy woman's form,
Possesses the magnetic spell,
When noting thy full rounded arm,
Thy shoulders slope, or soft breast SWELL
But It's not these, full well know,
For some who own matchless grace,
Have not the power to trance me SO,
Or drive the blood from heart to face.
Sara, dark and still, and very pale,
scarce dare tell yOu what think,
And yet it's not a dreadful tale,
Why linger on disclosures brink?
l do believe upon my soul,
What makes me hover near your side,
Is that l love past all control;
Pray will you help me to decide? ..
