Interesting Occasion

HAMPDEN-SI VA, September
25.-(Special MANY matriculates have
been added to the roll Of the college since
the opening of the session. bringing up
the number of students beyond that OF
last year. One or two old men and few
new ones are still expected The lite
rary societies have made desirable access
sions to their ranks, and the college
classes are now fully organized and regu-
larly at work. Mr.. Mebane Smith, coll
lege secretary OF the State Young Mems
Christian Association, has been here two
or three days, and addressed fine con-
gregation in the memorial chapel last
night on the work OF the association in
this and foreign countries.

Captain +. W. southali. Of jamestown
church; c. r.. Morton. Esq, Of Farmville
church, and DR.. James Blanton, OF Cum

ship, was present, and the exercises were
interesting and instructive. DR. Murray
was elected moderator. presided. pro-
posed the constitutional questions, and
delivered the charge to the pastor, and
DR. McIlwaine preached the installation
sermon and delivered the charge 70 the
church. Ii was regretted that DR. Hard

could take little part I'm the services. He.
however. made the interesting statement
that the three ministers present were
students at Union Theological Sem
mary with one another and the father
of the young minister placed over the
congregation. and that while during the
larger part Of their lives they were far
separated from one another in their work,
they had in the Providence OF God, been
thus brought again into close relations,
and were present 10 participate In the
interesting service connected with the
settlement Of the son OF their old and
honored friend Rev. John III. Davis. ID.

ters on his work In Cumberland under
most auspiciOus circumstances He Il
fine scholar. literary and theological. ana
a Christian gentleman OF the highest
chavacter. and in the few weeks In
which he has been In the field has taken
firm hold on the affections and confidence
OF the people. AS the successor OF such
men as Kirkpatrick. Armistead Leach,
Wharey. Jones and other able ministers,
and numbering among his flock some OF
the best people I'm Virginia, he has great
work before him.

CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET

CHICAGO. September 25-With the eX-
ception of a short period Of weakness
early in the session, wheat was strong
to-day, and closed at a 7sdlc. advance
for December and a 1sc. advance for
September. The strength Of corn, a small
visible increase and a recovery in cables
helped, but the strength was mainly due
TO the increase in trade and the timidity
OF the bear crowd. Corn was strong, and
advanced sc oats advanced kHlac.,
and provisions closed unchanged to 7Ac.
higher.
