EMMETTSBURG. MD.
The Annual commencement Exercises
az st. JOseph's AcadeEay, the oldest
IN lsIe Country

ESPECIAL TO THE APPEAL.l
ST. JosEPH's ACADEMY, NEAR EMMETTs-
BURG, MD., June 26.-To-day the seventy
sixth annual commencement of St.J Joseph' s
Academy took place. The exercises, ex-
ceedingly brilliant, consisted OF the rendi-
ton of many beautiful pieces, vocal and
instrumental, of many able composers. A
notable feature was the awarding of gold
medals and crowns as certificates Of
graduation. Prominent among the gradu-
ates we were happy to distinguish Miss
Ellie McCarren, OF New York. The other
graduates are the Misses G. Tiffany, of
Hartford, Conn; L. Conner, of Charlottes-
vile, Va; Farrell Rahily, of Petersburg,
Va, and j. Baker, daughter OF the late
Capt. f. II. Baker, United States navy, of
Norfolk, Va. The yaledictory, an excep-
tlonally fine one, written by the last
named young lady, exhibits high degree
of poetical talent. The respective vocal
and instrumental solos were skillfuliy
rendered by the Misses Farrell Rahily and
Tiffany. The gold medal award
ed for domestic economy was won
by Mics X. Coleman. A visit to
the cuisine proved beyond the shadow of
doubt this Young lady's claim to the dis
tempting variety Of dishes in the culinary
line. She proved equally skilliul in the
art department, her specimens being very
fine. In connection with this, we may
say this academy hes standing reputation
for art, music and culinary culture. The
successful competitors Tor silver medals in
their respective classes were Miss A. Ab.
bott, Chicago, H.: Miss N1'--
, uonroe, Va Miss NJ. Joyce, Washington,
d. c.; Miss 0. Freyhold, Washington,
d. G. Miss r. Eyre, San Francisco, Ca.
The costume of the graduates was one &
charming simplicity, it being white mul
embroidered robe, relieved by white satin
sash, and very noticeable feature was
the total absence of the fashionable bangs
and fIizzes. The audience might lie called
distinguished one, il judged by the hon
orable representatives of the hierarchy
and laity. Prominent among the latter
were several leading business men OF New
York and adjacent cities. All deeply re-
gretted being obliged to depart so soon
from this veritable Eden of America, where
exquisite scenery and salubrity of atmos-
phere combined to render it one of the
most favored spots for the education OF
youth in the United States.

ing that constant changes in the exec- |
utive department are not conducive 70
the best good of the state. The trouble
is the great mass of the politicians are
very willing this rotation in Office shall
cease after they have had their turn.
Civil service reform is fine thing
at a distance, or for some other state.
But if we are to wait until the politi-
clans are ready, before a governor can
be reelected, we may as well give up
all hope first as last. A few of the
state papers have modestly suggested
that in our present executive we have
man with whom the new order of
things may well begin. There is no
breath of disrespect towards him: he
would not turn his hand over to retain
the office he has served acceptablv:
he is far better fitted to fill the office
than two years ago. Let us turn in
and elect him. By so doing the people
will show that the desires they have
professed for pure and stable govern
ment are not superficial. That the
reform so long talked about has become
a fact. We say nothing against other
men that have been named, but do say
that there will never be a better time
than now to inaugurate this reform
! which everybody admits is right and
the best thing for the state Newport
Express. .....
READING BETWEEN THE LINES.
We are constrained to believe that
the Free Press, in the precipitancy with
which it dropped Mr.. Billings, and in
its later advocacy of the nomination of
| DR.. Nichols for governor, does not rep
resent Burlington or the section of the
state of which that city is the center.
| From all that we can gather, we judge
that Mr.. Billings is still the "Queen
City's" first choice, and that its people
do not relinquish the hope that he will
! yet be the nominee, notwithstanding
! his recent letter. The fact seems to be
proved by the result, that the pOliti-
clans were altogether too quick and too
willing TO drop Mr.. Billings. The tell
tale haste with which his declinatiOn to
be candidate was seized upon and ac-
| cepted, showed what u weight had
rolled from their burdened spirits.
There was instantly significant stir,
a smiling hustle throughout the state
Political linemen were busy putting in
position the wires which the Billings
movement had disarranged, and the
click of rival "machines" was heard
again, Notwithstanding they had been
deity mutf1ed. Agents were fitting
here and there, and thriving business
in political cultures" was driven. Who
will he ''shOrt" and who will ''long" Oh
governOrships, state and United States
offices, at the midsummer political ex-
changes, time will tell Montpelier

A Church Quarrel.

They are having a bitter church
quarrel in the Madison avenue Congre-
gationalist church, New York, which
has ridiculous as well as deplorable
aspect. The fight between DR.. New
man, the pastor, and his enemies 1.-THE
straight Congregationalists), seems to
be to gain possession Of the church
property. DR.. Ranney-antiNewm
and fOur other deacOns asked per-
mission to hold church meeting in
the vestry Thursday evening, but the
trustees would not grant the request.
At the hour indicated, however, about
300 assembled before the church only
10 find it closed. New locks had been
substituted, and when DR.. Ranney
arrived in IA carriage and WAS assisted
To the steps, he leaned upon his
crutches and declared the meeting add
journed to the Harvard rooms on Sixth
avenue. Here protected by the police
the faction voted the discOutinuance
of DR.. Newman's services as a ''supply
pastor" and also called u council to
settle the troubles of the church, in
Pentecost, DR.. Dexter of the Congre-
gationalist, an accepted authority on
| Congregational church usage and Pres
idents Seelye of Amherst and Carter
of Williams colleges, DR.. Rankin of
Washington, DR.. Storrs Of Brooklyn,
DR.. Taylor of New York, and other
prominent divines in the denOmina-
ton. While this meeting was proceed
/ ing DR.. Newman and Il few friends at
ii social gathering in Fifty-third street
received reports by messengers of its
progress.
DR.. Newman's strongest card just
now is the 100000 TO be left by Mrs
Waring to the church, as her will read
three or four days ago. She now
through the friendship she bears New
man, has made new will leaving the
money to him personally, and he says
SO it is repOrted-tha if he stays he
will pay the church debt, but if he i:
sent away the money goes with him
Altogether the quarrel is most deplOr'
able; but the refusal to allow a meet.
ing of the disatfected party in the
church building will hardly add to DR.
Newman's strength in the eyes of the
public.
