LETTER FROM THE UNIVERSITY
OF VIRGINIA.
COMMENCEMENT WEEK.
UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA.

UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA,1
June 30, 1870.
Mr.. Pendeton's great speech seems to
have given universal satisfaction, and is
commended by our best critics us model
of good taste. 1t was feared by some that
his prominen, position M leader of one OF
the great parties of the country would i'm
pei him to avail himself Of the occasion to
make political speech, but those who
thought thus did not remember that this
distinguished gentleman is elevated far
above the general run of northern politi-
clans, and has far more good sense, good
taste, and culture, than We often find. His
speech was free from the slightest allusion
which could offend the most faStidiouS taste.
1t was literary address admirably suited to
time and place, and model which others
we wot OF would do well to initiate.
The lawn was again brilliantly illumina-
ted tonight, and the promenading until Il
late hour enjoyed rs usual.

ing officers for the ensuing year: Presi-

NARROW ESCAPE FROM DEATH BY LIGHT-

lightning on Tuesday afternoon last. He
was engaged with his two little SONS in
making hay in one OF the lots purchased Of
the Kyle estate when the rain and thun-
der-storm Of Tuesday afternoon came up.
Disposed to seek shelter from the storm
and rain, he proposed to his boys to get un-
der large willow tree near the creek run
ming through his lot. To this they objected,
stating that they had learned in their phi
losophy that 1t was dangerous in u thunder
storm to seek the shelter of tree, especially
one near the water. He then suggested that
they could shelter themselves under the
overhanging bank of the creek. To this
they also urged the objection that their phi
Iosophy taught with equal clearness that it
was dangerous in storm to be In close
proximity with body of water. The
earnestness of his sons reasoning induced
the Judge to listen and pay attention to
them, and he aud they made shelter OF
