other time in the history of world
The civilization Of Greece and Rome
was the most refined of the days of
antiquity, aid to Il we are much in
debted for the great degree in which
the world to-day enjoys its blessing.
The cause of its history being pre-
scented, and read and enjoyed by the
student of to-day was the strict obser-
vance of the law. The respect and
love of the Romans for their laws was of
even more than reverential charac-
ter. The degree of respect in which
women are held indicate the degree
of civilization of a nation. The sanct-
ity Of the marriage relation was
shown to be held in a high degree
Of estimation, and that domestic love
constituted one of the chief bulwarks
of the perpetuity of government.
The only stable and unfailing de-
pendence in stable government,
that guards the happiness of its pee
pie, and insures the perpetuity of its
institutions, is q trust in God and a
strict observance of his Laws. This
effort was highly spoken of By many
persons, and was good performance.

A deep, powerful and affecting
speech was that delivered to the
graduating class on Thursday by
President Thompson. 1t was full OF
momentous meaning. 1t will long
he remembered by the audience as
well as those to whom it was adj
dressed. The young men aprreciat-
ed the advice SO beautifully and ef-
fectively given. The compliment
paid to the boys was deserved and
its sentiment fully concurred in by
the. acquaintances OF the gentlemen
who y ere present. The unexception-
able characters of all the class were
referred to. 1t is unusual to find a
whole class without its.'black sheep"
and this was one of these unusual
cases. The young gentlemen were
admonished to not give up when as
sailed by temptation, and not TO de-
spair when overtaken by adversely.
Every one OF these graduates are al
ready men Of character and, mark
you, will be men through life. You
all have ability; you all have self
reliance. and there is no reason why
you should not succeed.
