THE COLLEGE OF NEW JERSEY.

The one hundred and twenty-ifth annual
commencement of Princeton College has just
taken place. Between four and five thousand
dollars were distributed In fellowships aud
prizes, and a trustees medal, twenty-five dol
lars, was awarded to Mr.. j. P. Kennedy Bryan,
OF South Carolina, son of Judge Bryan.
The chief prize OF all Is to be awarded In
September, at the opening of the next term.
This Is the Slinnecke scholarship OF five hum
dred dollars year, for three years. (6tteen
hundred dollars In all, for the one who passes
the best examination In Latin and Greek, for
the sophomore class. This prize ia open 10
competition both 10 the freshmen of the last
year and to new comers from without, and
will doubtless draw large crowd OF compet-
itors. Old graduates OF Princeton. who have
not visited it of late years, would hardly know
the college under ils new dress. Besides the
old North. West and East Colleges, we have
now Reunion Hall, a finer building than either,
the observatory, the gymnasium, Dickinson
Hall, (erected for lecture and recitation rooms,
and costing one hundred thousand dollars, }
the new library, now almost completed, and
costing one hundred aud twenty thousand dol
lars, with fund OF one hundred thousand dol.
lars for the purchase OF books and for add.
lional buildings, aud, lastly. two hundred
thousand dollars just given for building and
endowing scientific school, and one hundred
thousand dollars Tor other purposes.

must be taken lest the fields be flooded with
salt water. In times of prolonged drought the
salt of the ocean impregDaies the river waller
at distances from the Sra which Seem almost
Incredible, and one application OF such water
will suffice I'd deslr' y the crop.
From what I have said, II may be readily
seen how disastrous must be such entire neglect
of these lauds as occurred just previous to
and Immediately following upon the close OF
the war. Mr.. B. assured me That he always
calculated upon losing the crops of the first
Two years upon these lands while In the pro.
cess of regeneration. He pointed out one
flood-gate just completed which had cost one
thousand dollars. AAG there are dozens-I
might say hundreds-such scattered over his
land, fifty thousand acres In extent. Just con-
slider this. The land which he thus controls
either In his own right or by lease was for
merly divided into nine plantations. The
negroes living on these p'autationS and now
dependent upon Mr.. B. tor their daily bread
are over two thousand In number. He en-
ploys six wlite overseers. and under the latter
are thirty or forty negro fOremen. His mules
are reckoned by hundreds. His expenses, at
rough but moderate estimate, are in the neigh
borbood of sl25.000 yearly 500 900 alone 20
to pay the rental OF some Of his land winch ne
has leased for terms OF three or five years.
While I was with him he was having little
ssmeadow lot" of one thousand acres fenced
in az cattle--ange. And yet the war left him
literally without cent In the world, and
nothing but combination OF courage, tact,
energy and perseverance could have given
him his present success. All that he has done
has been accomplished soiely by the aid of
borrowed capital, upon portion OF which ne
paid thirty-siX per cent interest, and from
that down to twelve. And after all this bis
frat three crops were failures, and debt OF
hundred thousand dollars natural result.
But he has struggled and fought his 10Y until
to-day-seven years from the comme 7cement
of bis eforts-he is in fair way 10 rsalize
well.deserved success.

The Nomination Of Greeley a Foregone

NEW YORK, July l..
The World, to-day, says: "Greeley's nomina-
tlon at Baltimore is foregone conclusion,
and there Is no Indications OF formidable re-
VOLT" It adds: There will be but TWO candi-
dates. For our part we shall advise nobody
to vote for Grant, and, as between the remain
Ing alternative Of voting for Greeley or stay

duty may more clearly appear after the can

BOSTON, July /.
The Labor party has decided on a confer
ence at Germanla Hall Assembly Rooms. New
York, ou Tuesday afternoon, July 80; Judge
Davis and Governor Parker having declined
their nomination. GovprHor Parker, In his
letter Of decllnatlon, says: VI have always
been member Of the Democratic party. For
nearly thirty five years I have shared its
lTlumpus auu uelealS, duueTius W lbs loEtuues
because l considered Its success essential to
good government and to the elevation
Of the laboring classes. Having been
placed in the important pubic posi-
ton as the nominee of that party, I am
bound in honor, as well as by inclination,
TO slaud by lts organization, and abide by the
decision of its National Convention. To be
the candidate of one party, while supporting
the nominee Of another, although the two
may agree substantially In principle, would be
Inconsistent. therefore respectfully decline
the nomination rendered me by the conven-
Lion which you represent.
