on Saturday evening, by Rev. ". B. JONES, OF

ness. The sermon before the Society OF Mlssion-
ary Inquiry, on Sunday evening, by Rev. O. c. BIT.
TNo, Corresponding Secretary Sunday sohooi
Board, was also eminently calculated to do good:

and tho faculty Of the Female College, marched
from tho Seminary building to the Baptist church
The commencement address was by Rev. JAMES
P. BoyoE, D. D., Chairman of tho Faculty OF the
san,;narv- TO the exertion and influence Of this
distinguished Charlestonian is mainly due the
establishment of the Seminary, which began in
1859, with q larger number Of students than any
other theological seminary in America has ever
had for it's first session. and which, but for the war,
would in all probability, by this time have equaed
in numbers the Oldest seminaries at the North, OF
whatsoever denomination. After the war it had to
begin de nopo, and the number Of students In the
session Just closed was seventeen, from six differ
ent States.
The address was one Of great power and value,
endeayoring to show that the principles as to
theological education which are laid at the foun-
dation of the Seminary are such as the Scriptures

the Baptists for centuries past. It showed much
historical research and force Of argument, was In
terestng throughout, and in several passages rose
TO 8 most impassioned and oyerpowering elo-
ouence, particularly when alluding to the
Baptist martyrs Of other days, and when urging
the supreme Importance of personal plety
in order to ministerial success. We understand
that various requests have been made Tor the pub
