THE LYCEUM COURSE OPENS.
4 Large Audience Hears Mr.. Wend-
Iing's Lecture on stonewalI Jackson.

Nearly every seat in the Academy was
occupied last night when the Lyceum
Course was opened for the season with
Mr.. George r. Weddings lecture on
Stonewal Jackson. Among those present
were well-known professors, distinguish
ed divines. men OF literature, physicians,
lawyers, scholars, and students.
The lecturer was introduced by Mr..
Garland Pollard, and was given an en-
thusiastic reception. Mr.. Vending has a.
splendid delivery, and from the first
words he uttered until the last sentence
of his hour and half talk he held the
closest attention OF his audience. The
military career OF Stonewall Jackson, as
related by Mr.. Vending, was thrilling
story. and as the lecturer told OF the
Christian soldiers wonderful achieve
ments on the field OF battle and his skill
as a leader OF armies, the audience was
either held spell-bound or carried away
with enthusiasm. The lecturer devoted
some little time to a description Of Jack
SONS personal appearance He mounts
his sorrel horse" said he. and We laugh
al him. In truth, he was In the saddle
the most awkward man In the army.
His way was thoughtful. and he loved 10
be alone"
MIR. vending gave a vivid description
OF the first battle OF Manassas, when the
great soldier was given the title, stone
wall Jackson" The Valley campaign was
then mapped out by the speaker. and as
he told of those wonderful moves OF
Jackson. when the latter fell upon the
opposing armies and defeated them at
every turn. his hearers reached the nigh
est pitch OF excitement
In regard 10 the cause OF the war MT
Vending said slavery was but an episode,
and that when a phllosophic history OF
the great struggle was written that would
not be given as the chief factor. IL was
the social state existing between the
Puritan and Cavalier, and the result or
the war was the fusion Of the two into
one man-an American.
Stonewall Jackson, though born CaVa-
lier In his religion entertained somewhat
the views Of the Puritan. and. therefore
he was an American.
Mr.. vending concluded his lecture by
describing the death 81 Jackson and quo
ting the last words Of the soldier: Let
lis PASS over the river ana rest IN the
shade OF the trees beyond" After Jack
son's death. he said, the fortunes or the
confederacy fell and II was probably the
Divine hand that was laid on the great
comma nder.
