A feature of the int year's studies, In addi

neering corps and the mining corps, is the series
of excursions which took place this spring. One

The Commencement day dawned cloudless
and sweet-scented to those who were about to
sever the hearty ties of .rood-fellowship and
allection formed within the college walls. The
sunshine must have seemed a bright in-oniiso of
happier days, and a nre.it clearing up ol morbid
fancies in overworked brains. Tho First Presby
terian Church was thronged at an early hour,
the diarininnly-habitcd younic ladies forming, as
u.-ual, a good majority of the audience. The
procession of dignitaries formed at tho foot
of; the college hill, and marched through the
leading streets to tho church.
In the absence of Kov. W. C. Cattell, D. D.,
the esteemed and accomplished President of
Lafayette, the exercises of the Commencement
were presided over by llev. Dr. Lyinaii Cole
man, Professor of Latin, who discharged his
duties with fitting dignity.
Governor Pollock read tho following resolu
tions of the Alumni Association:
Whereas, It has pleased the Almighty, in His
Divinu Providence, to raise many new aud firm
friends for our Alma Mater; and, whereas, their
uiuiiitieent gifts of money, apparatus, and iu
lluenco have placed old Lafayette upon an equal
r4uotm,g with the best in the land; therefore, be it
HexOlved, That the highest expression of grati
tude fails to express the thanks due from the
Alumni to the President and those Professors
who, by a devotion of their talents and private
property, aud a noble forgetf illness of self, car
ried the college triumphantly through its season
of adversity.
liexolved, That our highest esteem and warm
est thanks are due and are hereby tendered to
those who have so muuitieeutly endowed the
college.

Thomas 1). Logan discoursed pleasantly of
"The True Ambition." He said:
The desire for the attainment of excellence
is a heaven-appointed feeling and is not blame
worthy. Few men start out in life without the
determination to do something for mankind, but
many fail. What is the cause? Mistakes in
regard to a proper calling are not, for although
a man succeeds best in that for which ho is
pre-eminently lilted, yet a faithful performance
ol tho duties of any profession will insure some
degree of success. It is not a mistake in regard
to the field of labor, it is a mistaken ambition
which causes so many failures. A desire tor
honor without labor is the false ambi
tion. The true ambition prompts to desire
ultimate success only through the faithful per
formance of present duties. It is a noble feel
ing, w hich is worthy to bo cherished by every
true man. The American scholar should possess
it. He must devote his labors to the eradication
of ignorance before ho attempts to advance fur
ther the standard of science. Hero is work
which must be performed by patriotic scholars.
Since there is so much to be done, let no one
Joiu ins arms anil wait for some immortal ab
straction to visit him. Let each work for the
amelioration of his fellow-men, and then he will
1)0 guiilcil liv the true ambition: let bun live for
mankind, and when he dies it can be said of
him, as of Brutus, "This -as a man."
The valedictory, by William . Scott, of Wash
ington city, was an eloquent address, and was
chastely spoken:
Ciliii tis of Fctxlou: On the brow of tho hill
that looks down upon desert-bound Damascus,
bedecked with the bewildering beauty of the
lovely valley encircled by the Ab.uia ami Pliar
par, the ilazzling streams that leap Iroin the
rocky sides of lofty Lebanon, the False Prophet
reined his steed and exclaimed, "Man can enter
but one Paradise ! I will not cuter this one
below, lest 1 should have none above." With
less extravagance, yet with equal delight, we
have gazed from yonder hill over the enchanting
vale embraced by the wedded waters ot our sil
very streams. And glad! v. too. under the even
ing shadows, we have descended the muse
favored hill to lie refreshed by a cheery welcome
to the hearts whose warm" good-will welded
them to ours in lovim; unison, and tho homes
where the delightful amenities ot fireside
friendship became doubly pleasant when
adorned with the graces of beauty and refined
by the vigor of Intelligence. In this parting
hour, when the melodies of merry music and
the fragrance of beautiful (lowers are so
strangely mingled with the sad words of separa
tion, there comes the full sense of the joys we
had when the sweet courtesies of the evening
circle were added to our daily feast at the Cas
talian fountain of yonder academic shades.
And when in the future we rest by the wayside,
our eyes will fondly turn to this scene of our
delightful stay, and our memories will love to
linger on the'happy hours of our life with you.
The union of hands which began our friendship
is to-day forever broken, but the union of hearts
which grew therefrom is a spiritual unity wider
than space and more lasting than time. And
uow we beg you to accept the grateful offering
we bring of hearty thanks for your kindly deeds,
and to follow our footsteps in tho future, for
giving the faults and remembering the virtues
of the class which now bids you a hesitating
farewell.
Gentlemen of tho Board of Trustees: Wo are
strangers to each other, yet tho sons of Lafayette
cannot but revere her guardians. We exult with
you in the magnified power and expanding fame
of our Alma Mater. Founded on tho eternal
rock, Christ Jesus, her power is more permanent
than the everlasting hill whereon she stands.
God is the sum and centre of all science. May
He be your wisdom in the device, and your
power in the execution, of ever-growing and over
greater schemes for dear old Lafayette. Her
multiplying facilities for discipliuing'the leaders
of Ame'rictm progress give earnest of tho coining
day when your fostering care shall have wideued
the way and supplied the means for that mas
tery ot the principles of every science which
finds their addition and convergence in Him
who is their sum aud centre. God bless you in
your exalted and exalting labor of developing
into stupendous power and periect symmetry
this world-regenerating institution; for it springs
lrom the eternal rock, a lountain of lite to a
dying world.
.Mr. Chairman: we miss to-aay our ueiovcd
President; but though an ocean separate us, an
unseen bond unitesus, and our spirits commune
with voices more quick and silent than the elec
tric thrills. He animates us all. With double
spirited power he has breathed a new life into
our Alma Mater, and now with bounding pulse
and elastic leap she speeds swiftly to the front in
the race ot glory. W itn a personal magnetism
he has drawn a growing patronage from every
luartcr ot the land, and with wise counsel lias
constrolled the conflicting elements ot college
life. His Midas hand has touched with golden
Wfimty all appliance. The Muses will love to
dwell amid the enchanting scene devised for
your Parnassiau height. No narrow bounds may
circumscribe our Alma .Mater, lor tne eagle eve
of her roval guardian looks down from a world-
encircling view, and scans the radiations of her
inlluence lo the outer bounds of space and time
tier sons nave already Heralded nor name in
every continent, and her President now demands
tribute lrom the intellectual treasures ol both
hemispheres. Wherever he maybe this day, wo
know that his spirit is at tins hour hovering
here; and to that felt though unseen presence the
Class ol till now bids an affectionate farewell
Gentlemen of the Faculty: What shall 1 say
to you.' Year by year successive classes ac
knowledge the completeness of vour instruc
tions and speak the parting words. Yet this
ever-recurring separation is ever new. The
bonds that bind us are strengthened by the daily
intercourse oi years, and the occasion that sepa
rates us is powerless to sever the unity of our
spirits. Let tho merry nuisie and fragrant
Ilowers heighten the gladness of this gala-day in
other hearts than ours; for we are sad in ibis
closing hour of our intimate communion w ith
the beloved instructors to whose laborious care
and kindly counsels and patient indulgence we
owe so much. There comes, too, a penetrating
sense of what you must feel tho task to bo ol
training up leaders of society, the Church, and
the State; of showing them where and how to
delve deep into the mines of the truth, of
developing and disciplining their minds,
teaching them how to teach themselves
how to think and act when confronted by
the ever-multiplying problems of human
lile. Humanity, enslaved by ignorance and
polluted by sin, struggling for the freedom of
truth and the purity of virtue, cries loudly to
vou -anil vour noble brotherhood. God bless you
in your liigh endeavors to develop heroes for
Immunity, and send them forthwith the con
quering arms of truth to break tho shackles of
the enslaved, and. with a pure philanthropy to
reform tho vicious. May these high aims bo
ever sought, and the memory of their beloved
instructors be tenderly cherished, by those whoso
voices now mingle in the last word wo fondly
and regretfully utter farewell.

and other thoughts than you now experience,
vou will soon stand where we now are. Let
your Hearts, men, ten you now Keeuiy we real
ize the loss of your constant fellowship in the
united labors and pleasures of successive so-
sions. And thoughts like ours wi',1 then come
crowding thickly up for utterance. If there be
one thought more than another that now strug
gles for lull utterance to you, it is that you ap
prehend what, and where, and whence, and how,
and for what you arc. The philosophy of im
mortal life Is involved in that apprehension. Do
not use text-books as reservoirs of knowledge.
They are gymnastic apparatus. Think, and re
spect your own thoughts. For yon, for the
world, they are belter, even if the'y be poorer
than the thoughts of the books. Ho' disciplined,
not stiilled. The glutton-grown cormorant
sweeps his low llight over the ocean's surface,
and crams his craw with any food: but the keen-
eyed eagle selects his prey, and with wide wings
leaps up to the heights of heaven. We leave
vou wllli the parting praver that God may grant
to each of you the high hope and glory, the work
ing activities ol an heroic Christian manhood.
Students of l.afavelle. farewell.

Classmates, will not tli.it star culminate at the

At the coueltiHou of the commencement ex

marched in procession to the lecture-room of
the (iernian Keforined Church, escorted bv the

covered with delicacies were quickly sur
rounded. The ladies of Eastou were the hosp'r
table providers, and they liberally served all the

fioveruor Pollock, President of the Board of
Trustees, on their behalf then welcomed all to
the day's festivities. He did not desire to iutliet
a speech upon them: but he could not refrain
from giving rent to their rejoicings at the pros
perous condition of Lafayette. He desired
to remember the beloved President Cattell
in his absence, and asked Dr. Greeu to respond
on his behalf.
Dr. (ireen, iu answer, read a letter lately rc
ceived from President Cattell, tendering his
hearty good wishes for the prosperity of tho

that throughout Europe it is acknowledged that

James C -Mollatt, I'M)., as a representative
both of the Theological Seminary aud of the
College at Princeton, alluded to his own prot'es-

those days.
Kev. Dr. Ilammill, of Lawreneeville, N. J,
spoke briefly in response to the toast, "High

William E. Barber, of the class of 1810, spoke
on behalf of the Alumni, ho being the oldest
