CARRIER-PIGEoNs TO BE TEsTED.-Ar-
rangements have been made for testing the
utmost powers OF carrer-pigeons by flight
OF 760 miles, from Rome to Brussels, on
June 22d. There are more than 600 birds
entered for the race, but it is not expected
that over half dozen will succeed in
making the journey, as on the last test-raee
for great distances only about one per cent.
of the birds arrived at their destination.
The line OF the projected race crosses
Mount St. Gothard, and it is supposed that
the successful birds will take the direct
course, which must carry them over that
peak at 10000 feet above the sea-leYel.

urged activity in that direction: &ao
MIR. Josiah RyIand made the point that
the number Of students at the college frem
Richmond was proportionately SMALL. and
that the Richmond alumni should use their
influence to- increase this number. II
Rev. c. 81. RyIand indicated scheme for
rednions OF the alumni in different sections
Of the State. ~ ,sseia- - zatr Z a4
Rev. DR.. Curry spoke Of the. great adyan-
tage to the College which had resulted alrea-
dy from the influence OF the alumni, both in
the raising OF the endowment and in the
securing of students, and expressed the
hope that this was. but the beginning Of
what would be accomplished in the future.
He made the point that as q mere matter Of
dollars and cents Richmond College was
equal to the introduction into the city of q
capital OF S750,000. He said that manu-
facturer who should invest that much money
in the city would be hailed az beneiactor,
and could procure almost any privileges he
wanted. Richmond College asks not dol
lar from "the City Fathers" except that
they should improve the streets running to
her grounds, and should show her at least
equal consideration with the lager.beer
gardens, the streets leading to which they
have been prompt to improve. He thought
the alumni Of Richmond should quietly
but firmly insist upon this justice to the
College at the hands OF the city.
DR.. Thomas suggested that there should
be closer relationship established between
the academies of the State, and as soon as
possible series OF Richmond College
scholarships should be offered as prizes in
these schools.
The Society unanimously and heartily
adopted the following resolution
"ReSoLued. That the alumni OF Richmond
College tender their sincere thanks and con-
gratuIations to Rev. 2. S. Henson, D. D.,
for his brilliant and instructive oration."
The meeting was considered a pleasant
and profitable reunion Of the alumni.
