Der ever having passed a summer Of
such uniform GOODNESS in the night and
mornings asst he present. Even ats;mid.
day, the temperature was higher in
MAY than it has been in June. Take
yesterday morning as a sample. 1t was
cool enough for a fire as late as eight
o'clock. We have always consoled
ourself when under the infection OF
cold weather that the Fourth Of July
would give it a sweat, but we have our
doubts about it this year.

r,,,r,,vcvvvrr,-This is the season

CoxxRScExENrs.-This is the season
Of ACKNOWLEDGEMENT at the various schools
and colleges, and the annual inquiry
comes up as to the propriety Of the
word. An exchange discourses on the
subject, and says that Webster defines
the word commencement" applied to
colleges, as "the day when degrees are
conferred by colleges and universities
upon students and others" In this
connection, Of course, the word is quite
apropos, but still, considering the gen.
eral character OF commandments,
we have always regarded the term as
exceedingly malapropos. Forasmuch as
these occasions always conclude the
term of tuition and the term OF close
confinement 10 college, and form
the grand windingup day OF
the students oiten-times tiresome
task, we would suggest that such
exhibitions be called BINDINGS,
and not commandments" Again. it
might be argued that the time honored
title is most correctly applied, in view
of the fact that the closing day Of the
College term also witnesses the COM
mencement of the regular vacation,
when the well-primed, college-crammed
youths may don their best attire, assume
their prettiest appearance, and recite
their wondrous pieces Of prose in the
presence of hosts OF wondering parents,
guardians, pretty girls, and the college
faculty, and then commence the reallza-
ton of those home and social pleasures
to which for 80 many months they have
been strangers. In this light OF the sub
ject the word seems quite in place.

Quintilus, or fifth, received its present

Pitches his load reluctant the faint steer,
Lashing his sides, draws sulkily along
The slow encountered vain In midday

ONLY two teaspoonfuls Of Dooley's
Yeast Powder to quart OF Hour are
necessary to produce extra biscuits,

enterprises projected for the Improvement of
her natural situation. For five years the work
of deepening the Illinois and Michigan Canal

The case of Paymaster Richard Washington,
in whose accounts very large deficit was dis
covered in the recent trial held in Washington:
has been compromised by the payment by Mr..
Washington, of the larger portion ofthe amount
found deficient, and the case was closed yes
terday at the Treasury Department. The
grounds of the compromise were principally
that no evidences whatever of fraud were dis
covered, but that the money was lost in the
rush of business under the supervision of Mr.
Washington during the late war, when he,
with but slight assistance, had charge OF the
Paymaster duties at Norfolk, which are now
under the management Of two Paymasters and
corps Of clerks.
