The Last Day of the Feast.

At 1880 on Tuesday morning
another large audience assembled in
the Auditorium to witness the clos
ing exercises of the commencement.
The opening hymn was sung by the
GIee Club and the prayer offered by
Rev. z. r. Dadman, presiding elder
OF this circuit. Miss MILAN Brooke
followed with a pleasing salutatory
which was delivered with spirit and
refreshing distinctness.
Then came the orator OF the oc-
casion. DR.. George H. Denny, presi-
dent of Washington and Lee Univer-
sity. who was presented by Dr. Jar
man as a son of Southside Virginia,
the garden spot of Virginia, having
been born in the good old county OF
Amelia. The Doctor at once captur-
ed his audience by an appropriate
and well told anecdote and then
held it willing slave until his last
word had been spoken.
His first claim was for a healthy
public sentiment, and appealed TO
the young ladies', who were soon
TO become teachers. to contribute to
its formation. His second demand
was for a higher patriotism, not a
mere sectional nor sentimental pa
triotism. but one broader and deep
er. And upon woman he laid the
burden of fostering just such. And
then he charged the young woman
hood before him to resist with all
their womanly powers the spirit OF
ultra commercialism abroad in the
land. Lay less stress upon the char
acter of the house i'm which the man
lives than upon the character of the
man who lives in it, regard more the
fitness of the members OF the facul-
ty than of the numbers of which il
is composed and the salaries paid
Despise not the material, but guard

There was a time, said the speak

at the Courthouse in Virginia, but

are grateful for the privilege.
