A more thorough, vigorous and extensive

These are demonstrated facts.
SUCCESS OF GRADUATES.-The majority Of
graduates from this school succeed better in

Because students, here, pride themselves in hard
work, Sinking and shamming, so generally
the boast of college students, are here Of rare

general feeling of the school,

ADVANTAGES AND FAcILITIEs.-This large

The Late EIectiOns.

The net result of the recent elections is,
that the Conservatives have made gain
of four members of Congress, or five in
Guiding Greedy, of Pennsylvania, who ran
as an Independent Republican, against the
Radical nominee, and was set down as
Democrat by the Washington Chronicle,
before the election. The Republicans
were enabled to carry two districts in
Ohio, solely by the accession of negro
votes. Schenck, of Ohio, the Republican
leader in Congress and Chairman of the
Committee of Ways and Means; and
Cessna and Morrill,, of Pennsylvania, are
among the defeated. The Radicals have
lost 20, 900 of their majority in Iowa; and
the Conservatives have elected their State
ticket in Indiana, and secured majority
on joint ballot in the Legislature. They
lost, or rather failed to gain one of the
districts, (the 4th) in Indiana, by four
votes.
The returns show, that the opposers Of
the Radicals are making sure and steady
progress. They have done well in Octo-
Der. Now for November.

desire is to make this fine bale of cotton
clear the society of all Indebtedness.
THE Democrat seconds the efforts OF
Messrs. Shryock & Rowland, and states,
that when the St. Louis merchants are
Informed that nearly every ounce of the
cotton in that $500 premium bale was
picked by the fair fingers of Mrs. McShane
herself, that the entire bale might be with
out speck or blemish, and that it might be
sure to take the prize, there will be a gen

|of the bale will be an object worthy Of
effort. 1t thinks if matters are managed
right, this unequaled bale of cotton can
be made to bring large sum to the socie-
|ty to which it was donated.
