Sullins College.

The closing exercises Of this very sue
cessful Institution were very gratifying
to its patrons and interesting to the pub
lie. The litary address by Rev. X. n.
Price was one of the most pithy and
chaste ever delivered in Bristol and en-
titles him to a ID. d. We have not space
for detailed reference to the splendid ex-
hibition of the NJ. V. Literary Society.
In the exhibition of the senior class Miss
Rena Doriot's salutatory was spiced with
keen wit and elected much laughter
by Miss Allie l.. Rogan and indeed all
the senior compositions were fine. Mis-
SEES Mollie Withers, Annie Neil and AL
ma Seneker were the recipients of the de-
gree of NJ. K. L., and Misses Rena Do
riot and Allie Rogan of the degree of b..
A. The diplomas were awarded by
Pres. Hearon who has quickly risen to
the highest rank as q disciplinarian and
Instructor. Indeed, we regard him as u
very rare college president, and predict
for him very extended fame us such.
We have no hesitancy in saying he has
no superior and few equals in Va. or
Tenn. The medals and other prizes
were awarded as follows:
The Fowler medal for latin and the
James medal for composition, to Miss
Rena DOriot; the Courier medal for de-
pertinent, to Miss Allie Rogan; the G.
G. Pile medal for mathematics and the
Picken medal for reading, to Miss Allie
Chapman: the music medal in Prof.
DillwOrth's class, to Miss Sue Blair; the
same in Miss Mamie Is. Fowler's class,
ia Miss Sallie Conner. The department
prize in Miss Whiteaker's department
was drawn for by Massie Deaton and
Scilla Fowler, and was drawn by Miss
Deaton. Handsome prizes in spelling
were awarded to Charlie Davis, Charlie
bod, Carrie Dunn and Massie Deaton;
in penmanship, to Lizzie Nave.
The new catalogue Of the college was
freely distributed and shows for the scs-
sion $50 names, showing of which
President Hearon has right to BOAST
In the music class there were 43 pupils
and this ought to satisfy the am
bition of Prof. c. L. Dillworth, who de-
serves well of this or any other public.
We believe him to have no superior as a
music teacher in Holster Conference,
and we shall thank some one to show us
his equal therein.

Last night at midnight Joshua Ship

well known owner of Shipley's Ferry in
Sullivan county, Tenn, was found well
tering in u pool Of blood in Mosby's
Grove, Goodson. He was shot under
the right eye, the ball entering near the
nose and ranging slightly below the
brain. His head was terribly cut and
bruised with sharp limestone
rocks taken from Ii c
Narrow Gauge cut and his skull frac-
tnred in four places. He was and up
to this time has remained wildly deliri-
Gus, and the chances are against his re-
covery. lie was found by Messrs. Jno.
B. Keller, Jno. b. Templin and John
Merriman, and taken to his hotel the
Speer House, which he left slightly un-
der the influence of liquor, at TO p. NJ.
He is aged about 30 and has a large fam
lily. This T.. NJ. he was taken to his
sons house, some five miles out on the

VIM. E. CAMERON.

The Lynchburg News (Funde) of
Saturday morning has this to say of the
Readjuster candidate for the Govership
of Virginia.
*** But we merely propose to-day
to give sketch of the nominee, and
will try to do it fairly.
Col. VIM. Il. Cameron Ia native Of
Petersburg, and is about thirty-eight
years old. He is Of high family connec-
lions in Virginia, North Carolina, and
other States of the South. lie was mar
ried some eleven years ago to Miss Eyer
ton, at st. Paul, MINI. Col. Cameron
was not educated ut any regular college,
but had the benefit of the best private
tutors, and is one of the most variously
accomplished and wcll-read men Of his
age in the State. He was captain in
the Confederate armay, and for some
years was Acknowledgement of Mahone's
Brigade. He behaved with gallantry in
the war and received three or four
wounds in battle. Near the close of the
war, he was commissioned to raise col
orcd regiment, but the collapse ut Apo
mattoX prevented The prosecution Of the
plan. Shortly after the war he became
associate editor and then chief editor OF
the Petersburg Iadsc, and was acting in
that capacity ut the time Of his duel
with Hon. Il. W. Hughes in 1869. Cam
cron made reputation by The skill and
polish Of his pen in the journalistic field,
and was successfully editor Of the Nor
folk ViUinidn, the Petersburg Progress
and the star, and afterwards Of the Rich
mong Enquirer and Richmond HhW He
is Il poet MS well as politician, GOOD
musician, fences, skates, dancG3--lyery-
,hing that thorough man Of the world
can do, and Notwithstanding the def
cheney of u weak voice, is Il fluent and
forcible public speaker. lie was Mt one
time violently opposed to Gen Mahone's
railroad policy, but was rcconcilcd to
him in his (Camcron's) election to the
MayoraIty of Petersburg in 1876, an Of
flee he has ever since held and the duties
of which he has discharged with suits
faction to the people, when not absent
on political missions. He is regarded by
his friends MS verv amiablc and attrac-
tive gentleman. His weak point Is the
Inconsistency Of his record on the bebt
question. His nomination gives as.ur-
ancc that the canvass will be conducted
with propriety and dignity, which is to
be desired, in the present excited State
of the public man.

oring to replace II the lamp was knocked

extlnguish the burning oil, when two
other lamps were overturned. The au-
licncc not being able TO understand the
state Of affairs, The alarm Of fire was rails

did not entirely subsido until the hall

duct.

A raven sitting high up on limb had
fine piece of cheese. He was just 60

Fox. Now the Fox wanted the cheese,
but he knew he could not catch the RAJ

one of his "swect songs" At last the
poor Raven, silly with flatterry, opened
his mouth TO sing-when 10! the cheese
dropped to the ground and off ran the
willy fox with the stolen treasure In his
mouth.
