SCHOOL EXHIBITIoN.--Those who
went to the school hall last Friday
evening expecting to be amused, en-
tertained and instructed, were in no
wise disappointed in their laudable
expectations. The room was SO full
that very many were reduced to the
extremity of keeping their Perpen
dicular as long as the entertainment
lasted. 10 the main the cxhibi-
ton was very good, and nothing
detrimental can be said about it.
Many of those who appeared in pub
lie on the stage" were extremely Ju-
venile in years a. well as experience,
yet they demeaned themselves with
all the ease and self-possesson OF life.
Dialogues, declarations and music
with singing were on the programme.
The order maintained was not par
ticuIarly good though much better
than is generally expected from 80
large an assembly.
