YESTERDAYS RAIN STORM.

Lexington was visited by one Of the
hardest rains which has fallen here in
recent years, at about o'clock yester-
day afternoon. Shortly before that
hour dark cloud appeared in the
vest, and it looked as though we were
to have a shower from that direction,
but tie cloud shifted to the north;
However, it changed lis coulse and
returned, and broke over town in all its
fury, the rain descending in three
heavy showers. We understand that
The rainfall observed by Prof. II. d.
Campbell, of W. & L. u, was q inches.
Streets were flooded, sidewalks badly
washed out and considerable damage
done to gardens by being washed.
Woods creek was higher than it hes
been for fife n years and the foot logs
across it were washed away. So far as
learned no great damage was done the
wheat or corn in the county, as the
severity of the storm seemed to be
confined to Lexington and vicinity.

The commencement exercises Of the
Colored High School took place I hurs'
day night, June 18th, at Odd Fellows
Hall. The affair was the first Of its
kind held in l. xineton and was suc-
cess. The rostrum was decorated with
palms and banked high with masses OF
towers sent to the students. MIR.
Matthew Osborn led in prayer, followed
by few touching remarks from Prof.
W. P. Todd, principal, introducing his
pupils. In the course of Prof. Todd's
Introductory he said he did not a low
his pupils to present excuses. We
carefully noted the fact that there was
not an excuse offered for single pupil.
At the sound of the organ, (presided
at by Mrs. M. r. Johnson,) every
student rose promptly and broke forth
with song of praise. No music could
have sounded more harmoAiously. The
orations delivered by the stud snts
could not have been surpassed, We
have a clear evidence OF their advance
ment. We feel that Professor Todd is q
great power in Lexington with his
people as an educator. A handsome
prize WIS presented 10 Mr.. Marcellus
Lewis for the highest standing in ex-
| a ninai n. The prize was awarded by
Rev. w. 7. Johnson, B. D l., who in his
