The audience assembled early, and
were present to hear the first song by
the Intermediate Class. The little
folks followed in dramatic little
song. This is the way the snow comes
| Gown"
The speaking was opened by Miss
Clara Lulker subject, battle OF Fred
er.cilsburg, in we'll delivered
speech. Miss Clara recalled the des-
perate fight, the glorious Southern
victory achieved upon this bloody
field.
OF more peaceful cast was Mr..
Wheeler's resume of the life of "the
printer boy" the inventor and the
stalcsman, The greatest diplomat oi
his age. MIR. Wheeler drew good les.
sons from the life OF the illustrious
man and held out to each the possibil.
\ lty OF being remembered.
The debate, owing to the illness O
Mr.. Hines, was omitted.
/ Miss Annie Dean rendered sweet
! solo, 4 1T prelude TO the followinf

"Introduction of Christianity into Eng.
land" Miss Cora delivered a talk
worthv OF the subject and credit tc
herself.
But you remember there came a
time when England became restless
under this established religion. Miss
Julia Jones told US in her own pleas
ant way of the causes and effects OF
this reformation, making US to renlize
how free indeed we are from the
former bonds of superstition and op-
preston.
The boys of tho Intermediate Glass
now gave us a jolly musical relation,
in several languages. concerning that
world famous animal, ..Mary's Lamb. :"
In tho following speech Miss Mollie
Gist paid high and deserved tribute
one OF the South's most worthy

"Music In the school, the home. the
| heart"
To emphasize the argument, Mrs.
Howerton and Miss Annie Dean gave
US Sonata from which there cou.
be no appeal.
Mr. Racot always holds his audience
when he speaks. Whether richest
humor or deepest pathos, he is equal
ly at home. We think no one on this
occas ion can find fault with the ad-
vice given, or the manner in which il
was delivered.
If there was any shade of disap-
pointment it was not apparent after
the Qua tette had related in meiodious
strains the wonderful success" achiev-
cd by cevtain Master Horner in ex-
tracing plum from a miraculous
pie, of which the said Horner seems
to have been in undisputed possession.
Tho consequent JOY OF Master Horn
or seemed in a large measure shared
by the audience, and so in great good
humor the evening closed.
