After an elegant collation. on the lawn,
the commencement exercises of the Insti-
tute were held. Three sweet girl gradu-
ates-none of their performances q whit
behind their more fortunate sisters, whom
we had listened to In other places, Gov.
st. John very gracefully presented the
diplomas and made some pleasant re-
marks. The situation is beautiful and
deserves more interest than Is generally
accorded to il. After a dramatic perform
ance at Deming's hall, we separated from
our friends, with way down deep feel
ing OF gratitude, that we were permitted
TO be member of the editorial fraternity,
during the first week of June, 1882. The
of the trip, taking in the Insane
Asylum at 0ssawattomie, State Normal
School at Emporia and the State Agrlcul-
tural College, at Manhattan, although no
doubt very interesting, we we're obliged to
iorgo, in order to reach home before Sab

Our trip will long be remembered not
only from the information and instruc-
ton we received, but from the opportuni-
ty given Us of making the acquaintance OF
so many estimable people of the Safe and
exchanging ideas and trade secrets with
members of the craft. With such men as
Martin, King, Anthony, Proutty, Griffin,
Folks, ct al. In our party, how could it be
otherwise than enjoyable. The pro-
gramme for our next meeting In June,
1888, with California as the objective
point, met with universal enthusiasm
and hopes that the same party might re-
new the pleasant acquaintance now
formed, on that occasion.

Mr.. Stoddard delivered the last lecture in
his charming course at City Hall, last evening
to the usual crowded and delightful audience.
While there will naturally be difference OF
opinion as to which has been the best lecture,
no one will deny that all have more than
equalled anticipation. Not only have some OF
the views-for instance, the Parthenon OF
Athens by moonlight-fars surpassed in equisite
finish and beauty and truthfulness to nature
any stereosco2ic scene ever before thrown on
the screen in Portland, but all have been de-
scribed with delicate humor, thorough his
torical knowledge and brilliancy OF style that
is rarely met with on the platform at the pres
ent time. 1t will be borne in mind that neces-
sarily, from the number of views presented,
the lecture must possess more or less OF frag-
mentary character, and it is remarkable how
Mr.. Stoddard has seized ON the salient points
in the time at his disposal and made such thor
ough use of them. We shall gladly welcome
him back to Portland-in fact, we know he has
been compelled to decline an urgent request to
give another course in City Hall this season.
Next winter we must insist on another series
of these delightful journeys to foreign lands,
for such they really are.
Last evening, starting at Athens with mag
niticent picture of the port of Greece, the
Pirseus and the Acropolis, the many beautiful
views of the greatest known architects and
sculptors passed before the eyes in quick sue
cession; the Propyleum, the temple OF the
Winged Victory the Parthenon, the Portico
of the Caryatides, the Eaectheum, the Court
of the Areopagus, the arch OF Hadrian, the
temples of Jupiter and Bacchus, the Forum
the platform of Demosthenes, the prison OF
Socrates, the modern city with the palace OF
the King and Queen of Greece and the battle
field at Marathon. AT the latter place he told
the sad story of the death of young Burnham,
the Oxford student, captured and murdered by
brigands, who gave up his life for his friend
One great feature of these Grecian scenes was
the atmospheric effects, all of which were
really wonderful.
From Marathon the audience passed to the
Holy Land, entering that Mecca of Christians,
at Jaffa, the dirtiest of the dirty. Thence to
Jerusalem, the city of the cross, where mailed
Crusaders have bent the knee i'll alteration, to
the Mosque of Omar, the church of the Holy
Sepulchre, the chapel Of the Holy Cross, the
Mount of Olives, the garden of Gethsemane,
beside Siloam's shady rill, to Bethany, the
Dead Sea and the Jordan. These were but
few of the places visited, with which so many
have almost intimate acquaintance from study
and research. The lecture closed with visit
to the Convent of the Nativity and the chapel
