view, to blend tho colored light Of individ-

expression gives fetichism and transcend

that fate Is fable, that outward circum-
stances neither help no hinder, that the
measure Of the minds resources is the
measure of opportunities, that tempera-
ment is not tho enemy but the ally of 'tho
critic Of his own moods"
So learning, thou mayest-

Seek nothing Fortune seeketh thee.
No: mount nor dive all good things keep
The midway Of the eternal deep,
Nor scour tho seas nor sift mankind,

Behold, he watcheth at the door,
Behold, his shadow on the floor.
Open innumerable doors,
The heavens where unveiled Allah pours
Tho food Of truth, the food of good,
The seraph's and the cherub's foodl
These doors are men the Pariah hind
Admits thee to the perfect mind.'

the programme.
Before comforting the degrees, Prot: Moore
remarked that the time had come to dis
miss from the institution its first class
a kind of frst-fruits Of its labors. You
have done your work we'll; you have made
substantial progress; and you 60 forth

are not mere machines: but each one is an
independent power, capable Of exertipg def
mite influence. Make broad your culture.
Use your present mental requirements as
q standpoint. You have passed the ex-

having been approved by the State Normal
Board, now present you, in their name,
the diploma of the State.
After another song, the evening closed
with prayer AID benedic,ion by Rev.
Campbell. The large audience dispersed,
highly grati6ed by what they had heard
and seen. The essays were, one and all,
very creditable to their authors and were
we'll and distinctly pronounced.
A SAFE, RELIABLE CoMpANY.-Life In
surance is no longer, with prudent men,
disputed question. Its benefits and its
necessity are fully realized. The selection
of Company in which to insure is gener-
ally the only matter involving doubt.
Many are good, but everybody wants the
best. We have no hesitation in recon-
mending the Northwestern Mutual Life
Insurance Company Of Milwaukee. Its
system is pronounced the safest and most
liberal known, and the Company is est4b-
lished beyond all danger. Its assests are
over $40, 000.O 900. Its receipts in 1870
were $3,670,s70, Of which 176,S97.79
came from Minnesota. The Northwestern's
receipts in this State last year were almost
four times as great as those of any other
Company. We speak OF this Company now,
as its Special Agent, Mr.. W. B. Mason, is
in town for the purpose Of taking policies
Mr.. NJ. is already well and favorably
known to our citizans, having taken, with
in the past year, torty-ntne policies here,
This success is due in part to the
excellent showing of the Company, and in
part to Mr.. Mason's clear and gentlemanly
manner Of presenting his business. He is,
without doubt, the most effective Life In
surance Agent in the State. Many of our
best citizens have gone into the Northwest
ern, and some have been so we'll satisfied
that they have added to amounts previous
ly taken. Among these we may mention
Mr.. F. Talcott, who has increased his poll
cy from $4,000 to $4,000 We say to
every man, married OF single, insure your
life, and insure in the Northwestern.
POLICE CouRr.-On Tuesday Charles
Grantson was brought from St. Paul, on
the charge of bastardy, preferred by Mary
Larson. After partial examination yes
terdsy before Justice Barnes, he was COM
mitted to Jail for further hearing. This
case will probably be settled.
On Wednesday, H. V. Ditmars was
brought before the same Justice on CON-
plant of Alonzo L. Cram, for au aggravated
and unprovoked assault. dinners had,
with out cause, the evening previous, struck
this lad on the head with the loaded butt
of driving whip, knocking him down and
cutting cash three inches long. He went
before Justice Parsons, complained on him
self and was fined $50 and costs, which he
paid. He was arrested by the Sheriff,
brought before Justice Barnes and fined
$50 and costs. He appealed from this.
This morning the same individual was
fined SIS and costs by. Justice Barnes for
having been drunk the previous evening.
