borS and success Of the retiring
Board:
To THE PATRONS AND FRIENDS OF
RIPLEY INSTITUTE:
We, the 1'rnstees of Ripley Insti.
tute, beg leave respectfully to re-
port: I
That, pursuant to the expressed
wish Of a majority Of the patrons,
we arranged for a nine months sesl
sion, commencing the first Monday
in September 1882, and experience
having proven their efficiency, we
procured the services Of Profe r.
%. Prewitt and M. II. ArmOr.
We are happy to report that the
matriculations for the term were
in excess Of any former session,
having reached the number Of 118.
We are proud Of Ripley Institute,
of the noble work which it has done
and is doing. 1t is as a. center Of a
system Of educational light, which
it sheds upon the iatellect of the
youth Of the country BIZ means,
Of the number Of young men, who,
by its very liberal terms, are ena.
bled to prepare themsely ss l0r Aeir
.life-WOrk, and 81 forth to blssp man
kind as teachers Of the aFts ana sci
ences, religion and sthics, and we
feel that every effort put forth, ev-
cry word spoken, and every dollar
spent in the interest Of Ripley In.
.stitute, has been worthilY and ell
rciently expended for the promotion
of yirtne, religion, morals, and civil
and religious liberty; that society
is thereby improved, domestic life
.sweetened and the material and in

The closing exercises Of the tenth
animal session Of this wel known and
popular institution came or on
Wednesday and Thursday last. We
could not attend on "Wednesday, but
had the pleasure o rbeing present on
Thursday. Arrived about 10 o'clock
and found the large church building,
near the College, in which the ezerci-
ses were held, full to oIerfowing with
people. We have seldom seen a house
more densoly packed. We made an
effort to enter the bpildingsbut seeing
no vacant seat, took position on the
outside, which, pretty effectually pre-
vented us from Witnessing the exerci-
ses, but it was more pleasant outside
than inside as the day was very warm.
We cannot therefore give any report
of the exercises early in the morning.
At IL o'clock the Rev. W. T. Lowrey,
of Simpsonville, KY, delivered the an
nual address. Subject: christian Ed
qcation." We succeeded in getting q
standing position at the door, near
enough to the speaker teABar the pin
.cipal part Of his address. The subject
was well chosen and handled in a mas
terly manner. The address, as a
whole, was beautiful, chaste, elegant,
and it no doubt fully met, lift did not
exceed, the expectations Of the friends
of the young and gifted orator. At
the close of the address, recess was
given, and the. people were invited to
dinner. We shared the hospitality Of
our friends, DR.. j. f. Merritt and W.
H. N. Durham, to whom we ape placed.
under special obligations for their
kindness and attention.
After dinner the crowd was again
called together, and after the usual in
t~roductory exercises, one or two beau.
tiful pieces of music, songs, were sung.
The music was all very fine. But the
browning event of the afternoon. was
the reading of essays by the gfadua
ting class and the comforting upon it
the diplomas. There were five gradg-
ates in the English" course, viz
Misses Mary Lou COvington, Ripley,
Miss, Mamie Carter, Bolivar, Tenn. ;
Emily Rutherford, Blue Mountain,
Miss. Annie Robertson, Dover, Miss.
and Lee Stokes, Canton, Miss. Each
young lady, in the order named above,
read an essay, and each one acquitted
herself splendidly. After a few ap-
propriate remarks by Gen. Lowrey, he
delivered the diplomas to the gradpa-
ting class. The exercises throughout
were intersperssd with excellent music.
At the close, General Lowrey made q
few remarks of interest to the friends
andpatrons OF the school-stating the
terms upon which the school would b
hereafter taught, the timeit would be-
gin again, &c. He also stated, among
other things, that Jas pupils had been
enrolled the last term, ~ Of whom
were boarders, and that the College
had never been in . more prosperous
condition than il is at present. He
evidently was proud of Blue Mountair
Female College and he certainly has
cause to be.
At night there was a free concert
given by the music class, but we could
not remain to witness it. The lady
who has charge Of this department, we
are informed, is highly accomplished,
and we doubt not that those who re-
NAMED were amplYrewarded for doing
50.
