Closing Exercises at southern Academy.
EIitor BrookhdUen Ledger:-
The closing exercises OF the little school
in the C~ageyville n~eighborhood, taught by
Miss Jennie Ellis, came on Friday, July
It'll. Considering the Indifference of the
people on the subject Of education, especi-
ally in the country, it was surprising to see
The exercises before noon consisted in
examinations. In these the pupils reflect
ed great credit upon their teacher, showing
that her efforts to train their young minds
had not been Intellectual.
After the morning exercises, all were in
vited TO a table of sumptuous viands, where
the old folks showed the children how
proficient they were in that part of their
education. All did justice to this part of
the exercise,
Then followed recitations in poetry and
prose and dialogues. These were excellent,
giving us quite an intellectual treat. The
pieces were well chosen and admirably re-
cited. :.
Prizes were awarded to Lula Anding and
Etha Watson for proficiency in orthogra-
ply and penmanship.
The exercises closed with speeches on
educational topics from a few of the min
listers present, viz: Messrs. Anding, Sny-
der, Grafton and Green.
The patrons express themselves delighted
with the exhibition, well pleased with their
teacher and seemed to regret that the ses-
sion had closed. We trust an impulse has
been awakened in this community in favor
of educatiod not hitherto felt. Wonld
that we had more such schools for the chill
dren all over our Southland.

THANKSGIVING DAY.
by J. \. NEWPORT.

The Pilgrim Fathers own'd the nee6
OF divine oonsecrations;
And, resping blessings, blessed the seed
Sown in their habitatlons.
They won gem from Mammon's hand,
And gave it precious setting,
TIL now the ring enfolds the land
inscrib'd Day OF Thanksgiving.
Oh hours that State and Church unite
To give TO holy keeping,
Effulgent be the beams that light
Your stay benign, but fleeting.
Or should morn wake 'aid snowy drifts,
Or foods make wild yon river,
Still let true hearts from countless gifts
Turn TO the wondrous Giyer.
Blessings come in silent waiting,
Or responsive to a call
Some are fadeless, some are fading
AS the leaves that droop to fall.
Outward ones, TO sight appealing,
WelcoInd are as sunrise beams,
But the deepest founts of feeling
Gush from out some hidden streams.
"Unseen" mercies. Oh how countless;
Gifts the soul can only see.
Why, o why, this love 40 boundless,
This abounding sympathy.
Look up, faint heart, the stars have shone
Through all the clouded night,
And sweetest voices bid thee own.
- walk by faith, and not by sight"

The Russian Loan.

The surprising quickness and readi-
ness with which the recent Russian loan
of 100, ,000,0 900 roubles was taken by the
two cities of st. Petersburg and Moscow
alone only finds its parallel in the ease
with which the French raised the enor-
nous German war indemnities. The
llkase of the Gar authorized the Bank
of Russia 10 Issue notes for 1OO, O,OO0, 600
roubles, receiving cash subscriptions at
90, the notes TO have the character OF
bOuds aud bear , per cent. interest.
Estimating the roublo rs 78 pts, the
amount would be eqnivaieut to $50, ,OO0,-
600, which would yield TO the Govern
ment, at 90, the sum in cash of S71,-
76O, 600. No time is fixed for the loan
TO run, and il Will be at the option vi tho
Government TO redeem the notes when
ever it sees fit. Looking at the loan
from al unfinancisl standpoint, the
ouickness with which il has been taken
shows the uncompromising spirit of the
Russian people upon the questions at
issue between Turkey and the Sclaves.
II is an eloquent testimonial Of the do
termination OF the people that the
Sclayes shall be free.
