wesleyan Female Institute Com
Inencement.

For the DispAtcn-l
The commencement exercises OF Wesleyan
Female Institute, Stanton, Va, OF which
DIR. William A. Harris is president, recently
closed with great success. The address BE-
fore the Lee aud Jackson Literary Societies
was delivered by DR.. W. w. Smith, presi-
dent of Randolph Macon College. "Outy
and Beauty" was his theme. With phllo'
sophie grasp and poetic beauty rarely
equalled he discussed his topic. He was
yery happy IN the conception and delivery
OF his thoughts. His address made fine
impression and was well worthy OF the able
president OF the time-honored college over
which he presides.
The commencement sermon was delivered
by Rev. DR.. W. V. Tudor, Of Norfolk, va.
This sermon was masterpiece OF pulpit
eloquence, and made deep aud lasting I'M
presHOn. The entire scene and worship
were singularly impressive and beautiful.
The most interesting feature was the one
hundred young ladies In white uniform from
various States, seated together IN front OF the
speaker.
The art exhibition in the chapel OF the In
stitute was thronged with visitors from
various sections OF the country. The specl-
mems exhibited did great credit to the class
and It's accomplished teacher.
The annual soirfe Of vocal and instru-
mental music at the Opera Hall was bril-
liant affair, and testified to the high standard
and great proficiency required in music in
in this school.
The closing exercises consisted in confer
ring degrees, awarding diplomas, &c, In the
Opera Hall. The programme for this occa-
sion was very interesting. The entire CON-
mencement, lasting i've days, was well wor-
thy of the high reputation which this school
enjoys as ore Of the best OF our southern
schools for young ladies'.
The sermon before the Young Ladies'
Christian Association by Rev. Ii. II. Kenne-
DIV. of West Virginia, we did not hear, but
It was well received by bis large, appreciatiye
audience. H.
