MATTERS IN MAINE.

Commencement Week at BowdOin. I
Especial to Press,
BRUNSWICK, July THE Junior exhibition
this evening is regarded as the best for years,
the young gentlemen showing the evidences of
careful training in both voice and delivery.
Some of the selections were admirably de
livered, and called forth repeated plaudits from
the large audience The first prize was award
ed to Myles Staadish of Allston, Mass, and
the second to Seth L. Larrabee of Oak Hill
The awarding committee were G. T. Bracket
of Princeton College, James NcKeen of New
York, and w. G. NOVEL; of the Boston High
School. There have been many arrivals so far,
chiefly of members of the boards.
The boards held an informal conference this
afternoon and evening, at which the subject of
the military drill was very fully discussed. 1t
is understood that a proposition was Submitted
by President Chamberlain to the effect that
both the drill and the gymnasium course be
retained, and that they be made optional but
whichever the student selects he must adhere
to throughout the course. This proposition
does not prove satisfactory, and there will be a
warm contest in the boards tomorrow. The
general opinion is that the drill is doomed.
The following was the programme:

pie of Congress Square Universast church at
the unfavorable weather of Sunday last. was
made by our reporter without any intention of
disrespect to that very respectable society. The
high character, social and moral, of the church
and its members, is sufficiently well known TO
prevent any injury or misconcepton The
Congress Square Society is in the front ranks
of our religious associations and is always fore
most in all good words and works.
CoLLIsIoN.-Th steamer Lewiston collided
with schooner Monday night near Half Way
Rock Light. The schooner is supposed to be the

she struck the steamer. The schooner lost her
bowsprt. The damage to the Lewiston is not
serious. She arrived here nearly on time.
