HEBREW EDUCATIONAL SOCIETY.
Yesterday at O'Clock A. NJ, a brilliant a.
semblage, q crowded auditorium, smiling
faces and anxious young hearts, marked the
opening of the scholastic exercises of the
Female Academic Department of the institute
Of which Mrs. Alice sDalsheimer is tie Smost
efficient and successful directress, under the
Educational Board. At each warning Of the
bell, juniors and seniors took their places on
their chairs and in alternate charges came up
to the proof of study. application and prof.
cheney. sM ste a5 a.5
And nobly did they furnish the proof, and
we'll did they reward the, years of care, kind
and intelligent, devoted to their informing,
moral and intellectual, by q most competent
and conscientious teacher. As they bent
themselves in succession to their task, the
various branches of study, history, ancient
and modern; elements of science and philos-
ophy, arithmetic and algebra, literature and
physiology, and other ologies," were spread
before an audience, pleased, approving and
intelligent at once.
Our duties have frequently called on us to
embody our observations on occasions such
as yesterdays but seldom has it been our
lot to witness in young and otherwise artless
girls, the self poised assurance which asserted
that the teacher had faithfully taught, and
the pupils, with equal fidelity, boarded the
many men of methodical minds and dis
ciplned thought As we stood jotting the
impressions of the moment, We heard one
gentleman whisper to his neighbor !: .'This
can't be mere examining; there is too much
expression in the face, too much lighting up
in the eye, too much decision in the answer,
to warrant the idea of routine" So thought
we, as We took note of the remark to back
our own judgment
So much for the hard, right up and down
work of the day; but that work was made
light and pleasant to the audience by q sue
cession of compositions, recitations and dia-
logues of the most CRAFTY wing kind. OF the
compositions those which struck US most were
those of Misses Josie Solomon, Flora Loeb,
Cecilia Calm and Lizzie Dimitry Ruth, all
written with good discretion and not inele-
CANT language. Although these young ladies
have studied rhetoric, they seemed to US to
have kept their fancy within its more sober
rules. The Rotations were of the most sat
isfactory character, and betrayed the nice
taste of Mrs. Dalsheimer, their teacher, who
trained them to the utterances.
Miss Adeline Frautman's "Wifs's Conf
Dental Letter, o humorous confidence; Miss
Cecilia Gains :. Woman's Question and it's
Answer sad, sad song Of heartless pride
and holy poverty; Miss Lizzie D. Ruth's
THE Mother and Poetess," most touching
poem, involved in Mrs. Browning's artificial
lines, were all delivered with opposite refer
ence to the subjects and with all but faultless
accuracy of elooution. The palm certainly
belongs to Miss Lizzie d. Ruth and Cecilia
Calm. OF the dialogues, we have barely
time and room to say that, selected with a
special view to please the visitors, their rem
dition by the young ladies, SO true to nature
and so picturesque of society, convulsed the
audience with laughter. s4
We might here close our report of one Of
the most pleasant morningsin the scholastic
annals of the city which we have spent, but
that we wish to linger while on an equally
pleasant incident At the close of the exer-
cises, DR.. Leucht, the scholarly superinten-
dent of the institute, called to the platform
mon and Cecilia Calm, and in few, pointed
predatory words, informed them that, as they
had most successfully run through the curri-
oulum Of the Academical Department, he an
nouuced them as graduates of the institute.
In language evidently springing sponta-
peous from the heart, he advised them of the
Longtime care and anxiety of their Alma
Mater and calling on Miss Lizzie Ruth, he
said:
i"You, Miss Ruth, the granddaughter Of
Professor Dimitry, one of the most eminent
scholars OF the country, who committed your
education to our hands, you can be witness
how We have tended and made good thai
| trust. which he safely reposed in us. You,
and the loved companions Of yoar daily tolls
require to-day no parchment to tell the world
that here you have found those who have laid
their informing hands on your young intel
lects, and that this imposition of hands hai
been to you and to your classmates .
sacrament Of intellect Go, now, you and
the companions of your exertions and tolls
with the seal of mind upon your young brows
and tell the world of the work which has beer
done here for you. - ,aH IN.
| EDO you 60, Miss Ruth, and. as mission
ary of loving Kindness, tell them that here

yours, Cunning to Mrs. Alice Dalsheimer,)
besides the lessons of knowledge which, GU
of her bountiful means, she has dispensed Il
YOU and to your classmates, none other has
been taught than that of this same loving
kindness, in which God would bind all OF the
creatures of his hands"
We cannot trust ourselves to describe TIL
effect of these touchingly eloquent words o
DR.. Leucht on the audience Yet we saw
gentle tears in gentle eyes and manly tears OF
manly cheeks As close of all this, as w
were hurrying down the steps. we heard, on
