STANTON FEMALE SEMINARY The closing ex-
ercises of this young but fourishing institution
were held on Thursday evening (13th inst. in
the Lutheran Church, and were of very inter-
esting character. They were opened with the
singing of beautiful Introductory Hymn by the
youag ladies of the Scteol, assisted by several
members of the Choir which Was followed by
prayer, offered by Rev L. Fox, pastor Of
Bethlehem Lutheran Church.
The Principal OF the School then, after few
preliminary remarks conferred certificates Of
distinction upon the following pupils: Miss E.
Lushbau gh, Stanton, Va. for proficiency in
,-ttbmetic; Miss Carrie Summers, Baltimore,
Md. for Music and peumanship; Miss Minnie

man Miss Ella CHICKEN berger, Burke's Mill,

ton, Va. for commendable progress Ia general.
After these young ladies had received shelr
certificates, the Principal announced that the
first diploma from Stanton Female Seminary
Va, young lady who coming to this institu-
ton with fine preparatory education, bad for
two years so diligently and successfully applied
herself to study as to richly deserve the honor
she was about to receive. Those who are best
acquainted with Miss McCauly's character and
attainments are ready, we under stand, heartily
to endorse all the complimentary things which
the Principal said of her and to her, as be hand
led over the parchment and declared her full
graduate.
The leading feature of the evenings exercises
was the address by Rev.. Hawkins, pastor of
the Lutheran Church at Shepherdstown, West
Va. 1t was production admirably suited to
the occasion upon which it was delivered, char
acerized by sacred thought, vigorous expression
glowing imagery, aad an earnest and impressive
style of oratory, which produced marked and
very happy effect. As far as we naye been able
ito lcara all who heard it have spoken of tae eff.
fort in terms of highest commendation.
This address was followed by touching fare
wv ell address to the pupils by the Principal of the
Seminary, when the Parting Hymn was sung,
and the Benediction pronounced by Rev. Mr.
Gilbert, the pastor of the Church
We congratulate the friends of staunton F e.
male Seminary upon the high character of these
