The MONTHLY GRADUATING CLASS AT
DoLBEAR CoLLEGE.-Yesterday class of
twenty-four of the students in Dolbear Com
mercial College graduated. The exercises
took place in room in the college, and
about hundred gentlemen and several la
dies were present.
The ceremonies opened with some re-
marks from Professor Dolbear himself, who
spoke highly of the talents and diligence in
study of the young gentlemen upon whom
the distinction of graduation was conferred.
Hon. VIM. ii Burwel, of the Bulletin, de-
livered discourse to the class admonishing
them that upon the young men of the South
depended its future prosperity and greatness,
and showing the necessity of the Southern
people turning their attention to the culti-
walton of scientific and practical learning
and the acquisition of q knowledge of in
dustrial arts. 1t was an impromptu effort,
and one of the ablest and most interesting
speeches we have ever heard.
Mr.. c. c. Williams, one of the graduates
delivered very neat and pertinent farewell
address in which he showed the self-posses'
sion of trained speaker and the power of a
thinker.
Letters were read from General Longstreet
and General Wade Hampton in reply to in
vitations to attend, and expressing their
regret at their inability to be present Gen
eral Longstreet referred to the political con-
dition of the country and advised all to work
earnestly and faithfully to restore the whole
country to state of harmony and prosperi-
ty, and pay no heed to the idea thrown out
in the Northwest of o combination of that
section and the South looking to another Sc
cession movement General Hampton ex-
pressed his regret that institutions such as
Professor Dolbear's were not in every part of
the South.
A few words from Professor Dolbear, as to
his constant endeavors to give his college a
polytechnique character, closed the exerci-
ses
Subjoined is a list of the graduates:

ton, of Georgia; H. l.. Nusom, of Texas; H. H,

The ninth instruction refera-to the rules
as stated in the preceding instructions, and
states that II the Jury believe, by the rules
thus stated, that the testating gave the
amount sued for to the defendant, they
should find for him. This was error, for the
reasons above stated, KEW
II Is contended, in behalf of the defend
ant, that the testimony of the witness San
ders shows, that the gift of the debt by the
testating to the defendant, was absolute
and without any condition. If such gift
could have the effect in law ola release Of
the debt--which we have seen would not be
the case, there being no written release. no
delivery of q promissory note evidencing
the debt, and no accord and satisfaction
yet the testin ony Of this witness properly
considered, shows that the alleged gift was
coupled with o condition and reservation of
her right to demand the debt at a future
time For when the witness speaks of the
facts that transpired at the time Of the
alleged gift, he distinctly states that it was
with a condition: and he quotes the lam
guage used by the testating in the matter.
He afterward, when again called, stated
that he intended to say that there was no
condition about the gift But it is plain
that this latter statement is merely the
opinion and conclusion which he formed as
to the legal effect of her declarations, and
that such opinions is entitled to no weight
against the statement of facts previously
detailed by him.
1t follows from these views, that the
rulings of the Court, were erroneous, and
that the motion for new trial should have
been sustained. The Judgment is reversed
the verdict set aside, and the case remanded
for new trial.

HENRY STANBURY.-A Washington
correspondent of a Western paper
thus describes the United States Attor-
ney General:
Henry Stanbury, whom the Senate
declined to raise to the Supreme
Bench, is man who seems to have the
respect of his strongest political foes,
and the good will of all with whom he
comes in contact Tall, vry spare, dress
ed in the somberest black, his crane.
like neck enclosed in a black stock,
with long profile and broader face
than you expected, the Attorney Gener-
lal is the most unique and old fashioned
e gentlemen. Seeing him, you must
Think of times hundred years gone,
or ofmen who figure in the delightful
exaggerations of Dickens. He looks
out at you with gentle blue eyes, and
speaks to you in tone ofrarest court
esy. He is not wanting in force or
decision, but there is nothing aggres-
sive or revolutionary in anything he
says or does. He may believe Con-
gress wrong in its judgments and its
action respecting the political situa-
ton, but the President will not thwart
the execution of the military law, or
any other duly eEacted law, if he fol- |
lows the advice Of his legal counsel |

From the Copiahap,
The Negro.

Who would have supposed, that af-
ter being taught by an enemy to de.
sert his master, and to seek to Stay
him, and having arms put in his hands
and instigated to fight for his freedom,
that freedom once gained with his rude
notion of freedom, and with all the re-
collections of, his former enthralment,
the negro would have been as patient,
quiet and respectful as he is at pres
ent? We take it, that the conduct of
the negro since the surrender, few
cases excepted, is unparalleled in the
history of any people.
An ignorant race of people, born to
servitude, and reared in bondage, rude
in morals and untaught in affairs Of
governments and wise .maxims of
society and order, suddenly turned
lose from bondage, and elevated to
freedom, and equality, in all matters
of law, with their old masters them
selves, but by the armed power of
their masters enemy, it was but rea-
sonable to expect, that through igno-
rance, they would run into the excuses
of INSTRUMENTATION and riot. But such
has not been the case They deserve
the highest credit for their civility and
quietness.

DEsTITUTIoN AT THE SoUTH.-Yester-
day we were shown a letter from a
Washingtonian in the town of Madi-

announce, forcibly confirms the worst
rumors of starvation in the South.

most piteous language for money to
buy food for his starving family. He
says: 81 am without one cent, and
have had no money in four weeks. /

the only one in this fix, but thousands
more are like me. In plain words,
there are awful times in this and other
parts of the South. Starvation com
pels me to ask this favor of you. The
facts here are a great deal worse than
my pen can describe. l have been in

The Louisville journal now discov-
ers what we are surprised that SO saga
cious an observer of passing events
has not sooner discerned, that the
Southern people, recognizing the pow
er of the Federal Government to pre-
scribe the conditions of their restora-
ton to the Union, will accede to the
terms embraced in the Military Bills.
They will do SO, on the same principle
and for the same reason that they
acceded to the plan prescrib-
ed by President johnson. They did
not approve the terms required by the
President; nor do they approve the
terms prescribed by Congress; but
they will obey the DEGREES of power
which has acquired the means of en-
forcing them. 1t is true they have the
privilege of rejecting the proposition
of Congress, as they might have re-
jected the Presidents policy, but to
make this choice is to declare prefer
ence for the condition of provincial
dependents governed by Martial law
for time, but with clearly defined
prospect of the unconditional en-
forcement of terms of reconstruction
thousand times worse at future,
but not far distant day.
1t is under the influence of such re-
Elections as these, that the Journal has
reached the conclusion which it an
nounces in the language following:
1t is now probably fact, whether
for good or for evil, that the South
will organize under the Legislation of
Congress, hard and oppressive and re-
voting as it is Nearly all of the lead
ing Southern papers out of Memphis
are advocates of this step, and nearly
all of the popular manifestations are
in favor of it. A short time ago we
did not dream of the possibility that
such state of things would ever come,
but it has come, and there appears to
be no averting or changing it.
