manner in which the debatants ham
died the subject, spoken of in very
complimentary terms.
Thursday was commencement day.
The Baccalaureate was conferred on
NJ. B. Mem ahan and S. n. Newman.
The annual address was delivered by
Rev. DIR. Mays of Knoxville. His
subject was, The influence of Greek
Philosophy on human destiny" The
classic diction and scholarly bearing
of the orator, were aptly calculated
to awaken in the memory Of the stu
dent of Grecian history, panoramic
visions of Academic Groves, with the
magisterial figure of Plato in the
fore-ground-o Athenean Lyceums.
with the philosophic part of Aristo-
tie announcing the grand principles
and doctrines of the peripatetic phi

down through the ages, moulding
thought and theory for the scholar,
statesman, and philanthropist, till
the last wave of time shall break on
the shores of eternity.
In the evening the alumni Of the
College waited upon the Board of
Trustees, asking that body to take
steps at once looking to the erection
of a new college building--the alum.

The proposition was accepted, and
citizens and others present being in

which increased till it was deter
mined not to end the matter that
evening, but to adjourn to next morn

The colors~ of the sky At particular

Not only does . rosy sunset presage
fair weather and ruddy sunshine, but
there are other tints which speak with
equal clearness and accuracy. A bright

wind; pale yellow, wet . neutral gray
color constitutes favorable sign in the

Every one who has struggled through
the five hundred and odd pages Of the
"Gilded Age" will readily recall the
character of Colonel Sellers. 1t turns
out that, instead Of being an emanation
Of the Imagination of Clemens Warner,
Colonel Sellers is a bona -6de person, cx-
isting outside the pages of the book. A
short timo ago gentleman called upon
tho President Of the American Publish
ing Company, at his Office in Hartford,
Conn. After making sure that be was
addressing the proper person. the stran-
ger introduced himself ~ Colonel Sci
Isrs, and picking up copy Of the "Gild-
ed Ago" that was lying on the table, he
turned to the engravings fthat charac.
ter, and remarked: "Perhaps ysu will
recognize me by tho picture" The
President glanced from the engraving TO
tho man, and then from the man to the
engraving. Certainly there was .
strong resemblance between the two,
and ~ the President had read the book.
his first thought was: II wonder what
now speculation the Colonel has on hand
new " He was not suffered to remain
long in doubt. Said the Colonel: "My
lawyers have advised me that in conse-
quence of. the unwarranted use of nv
name by Messrs. Warner 4 Clemens, l
can recover good round sum for dam
ages. l don't like lawsuit. and CUES.
We can settle the matter without one"
The President, Of course, did not view
the matter IN that light, bat finally he
agreed 20 write TO Mr. Clemens, and
pending the answer to that letter, the
matter remains in sfafu quo
