way, kissing would be confined to family
usa and for medicinal purposes, and not
indulged In as beverage"

AS stated last week the INTELL1aENcEE
was on the eve of going to press when the
Commencement exercises Of the Patrick
Military Institute were drawing to close,
The address of Mr.. Pleasant A. Stovall
was q perfect gem, and his subject-"The
True Gentleman"-was treated In such
manner as to convince every one that the
orator was thoroughly and intimately ac.
ouainted with the character he was por-
traying 80 delightfully."-. We knew Mr..
Stovall of old, and were confident that the
sparkling and brainy editorial writer who
so long made the Augusta Chronicle gen.
eral favorite, and who is now conducting
the Savannah Press with such marked
ability, could not make any but capital
speech. His praise was in the mouth OF
every one. After his speech the following
prizes and medals were presented: Best
drilled commissioned officer, Capt. B. 8.
Patrick, Anderson, handsome sword
best drilled nor. commissions officer, Ca.
det II. Thomas, of COlleton, q capital
breech. loading rifle. These prizes were
offered by Lieut.. Donaldson, and were
presented by Rev. G. B. Smith. Cadet
Stone won the medal in bookkeeping,
which was presented by Prof. j. Scott
Murray. This ended the commencement
exercises, and all thoughts were then turn.
ed to the military hop to take place that
evening in the Hotel Chiquola.
