doubtless, the aim, the hope, the
laudable ambition Of every one who
graduates this evening. Although
this, to you unexplored sea, to whose
vast waters your fortunes are now
being committed by tender hands,
and sympathizng hearts, is filed
with an infnituds Of psrils, although
dotted with eddies and currents, and
whirlpools, over and around which
danger and death lurk in each pass
ing wave, and in every whispering
breez., it has also its barbors of ref
ugs, its lies of beauty, its coves of
safety, its sunny skys and peaceful
calms, its favored winds and its help
ing tides, and above all a green, a
happy, peaceful shore on the dis
tant other side.
And while you must be your own
mariner, still you are not left to steer
your bark unaided across this SEEM
ingly trackless ocean; for on its very
shore stand erected in stately grand
eur the beacons of experience which
ages have builded, and whose bril-.
liant reflections cast their rays across
your pathway. Upon its promonto.
ries, history, cleaning among the
centuries for materials, has erected
perpetual lights to guide the future
generations acro1 its waste Of wa
ters; over the spots of peril, under
meath which lie ruined fortunes and
ship-wrecked lives, time has changed
its signals and history has stationed
its buoys to warn the lonely voyager
Of the dangerous surroundings. The
chart Of all human experience, and
human knowledge, the growth OF un-
numbered cyles, as we'll as the book
OF revelations, with its inspirations
and its warnings lie open before you.
But while have all these advanta.
ages over those Of many generations
that preceded you; while you, un-
like them, are living in an age of
reason, Of intelligence, of light, Of
knowledge, ct civilization and chris
tianty, and in land more favored
in all these prospects than any other
on the inhabited globe; while the
light of countless ages is shedding
It's rays upon you, and the receipts
OF all the learning of both ancient
and modern times are yours to guide;
still, on this voyage you must each
DO your own commander; you can
not call from the echoless shores be.
yond any who have gone before you
to pilot you over. 1t is voyage
though made by countless millions,
and must be made myriad millions
more, can be made but once.

This is progressive age, human
knowledge so far from having reached
the acme Of its existence on earth,
and come to stand still, is today
making strides into the boundless
realms of the unknow such as wero
never before witnessed since the cre-
alton Of man. Its line of march these
later years is being crowned with
laurels, adorned with victories,
marked with triumphs, in the pres.
e"ce of which all history pales, and
before whose peerless and dazzling
record the nations of the world do
homage. Through tho onquiring
and ever advancing spirit of modern
scientific enquiry and development,
the reciprocal influences and relations
of mind and matter are being traced
out with greater precision, and more
startling experimental force AID
beauty than ever before.

A MODEL ADDRESS.


recently took place at the William.
ette University, at Salem, Ogn.,
Hon. j. II. Mitchell, ex-senator from
Oregon, delivered an address to the
graduating class. We make the fol.
lowing extracts:
Human life, like the life of nations,
has its epochs; both are equally
marked by distinctive periods, around
the approach Of which gather deep
interest and momentous sClicitude.
Shakespeare tells us
--"All the worlds stage
And the men and women merely players,
The have their exits and their entrances,
And one man in his time plays many parts
His acts being seven ages"
With what tender care must the
founders Of this government have set
ahoat upon the great sea of time the
irail structure Of this Republic; with
what solicitude must her course have
been watched by those who had i'm.
periled their lives that she might
have All existence on earth; and as
she grew in strength, in beauty, in
influence, and in power, what tongue
can speak the qualification, the joy,
nat must have swslled the bosoms
aud thrilled the hearts Of those who
gave her birth ?
So in the life Of man, the several
periods of his existence, infancy,
youth, manhood, &c., his "ssven
ages" as Shakespeare terms it, are
each surrounded by a peculiar inter.
est, and the entrance upon each
epoch in his existence is the signal
for extraordinary solicitude, not only
On the part OF the individual himself
but of all those who by consansuini-
~, affinity or more friendship, aro in.
teres,ed in his future welfare. And
ui these several periods, none, per
haps, ut tue commencement, is OF
more interesting Importance, none
surrounded by graver considerations
all
that upon which you enter this even.
ing. Until the present hour you
have been attended, counseled,
guided, in Iiie's strange journey by
kind parents and earnest, solicitous
teachers, who have with paternal rs
siduity, month after month and year
after yoar, conducted you through
the intricate labyrinths of-tirst, the
common school room, then tho acade
my, and still later the university.
Tonight you, in a most important
sense, a sense you may not perhaps
ut present, or for time, fully realize,
take all these by the hand for the
last time. Their work as to you, if
we may except their hopes, and pray
ers which will ever follow you, is
done; while yours is but begun.
Your bark is now being launched
upon another, a different, deeper,
wider, grander, yet more dangerous
sea. The shore from which you sail
tnight is dotted with unnumbered
friends, who, with sympatIizing
hearts, with radiant hopes, and with
joy mingled with tears, and sorrow
with gladness, bid you God,speed
on your pcrilous journey-on that
lone voyage across the busy, the
tompestuous, the dangerous sea Of
active business life; a sea whose
sunken rocks and shifting sands,
whose cheerless isles and pestilential
winds, whose lowering skies and
treacherous waves, whose winter
storms and summer heats, have, since
creations morn, strewn its lnerclless
waters With the shapelsss fragments
Of ship.wrecked lives; and along
whose time SCARED shores iia bleach.
