Academy, In charge of Mother Superior Cen
evieve, occurred last evening at the Convent
and Academy, In Greenville. A brilliant as

of education and proficiency in music, decla-
nation drawing and other accomplishments.

precludes us from doing ample justice to the
commencement, but we must not forget to
pay our compliments to Miss Burke, who de-
livered the valedICtory, and Miss Marie Ca
pella who made the response.
The award of the diplomas was an interest.
