To this l'rofensor C. 8. unite, Pro vost of the Institution, responded as follows: 1 feel,tentlennm, of course, la ymt coming here to Bight, ir.M joii look rat.hor to the lunt, than to I lie future wlul thonn xnnagrd in tha avadmnicni work of tho Uni versity look more J,o thn future than to the pant.

And the result of the nirKtilioatiiiiiH tor the college ban Ixiena Tory largo in crease in the eornuer of students.

JCvou for the ISO students, with their llftoua pro (union, what ai'OoininodntioiiH baa if f Now, gentlemen, what is the npirit in which thaso tbinps have been doner Not merely in raise the reputation of the university though aKgradn atee of the utnvcnity you itiunt all lmve an intnroHt in that repnt-ation, and foel anxious to Kive tho ooll'te its proper aoeitinn but for a far higher object, we wunt to make thia artrvernity wlmt it nlwaya nnxht to lmve been, a (rrund biladulhia iiiHtitution. ( Apiilaune.) VV fool tliat we onght to have the ndvantacon here that other institutions have and thia ia a matter of the first import anco. W are not merely stniKbiis for ecientitio reputation, for toe reputation of the nuivereity, but for the reputation of Philadellihia. Now, Kiintlemen, how far nave we sono into thisl What do we proposu to (lo Two tilings. I'lrst Ut itet a proper aite for the building of the University, and secoiui to art money enouch to endow the institution. (Applause.) And one of these t hings is dependent on t oe otlinr. How, tyr . Instance, can we no to any man and ask tor aid when Councils, aa Helnct did the other day, aulboriKO us to pur. chase seven acres and a half of Kround and not alluw us to sell one foot for the purpose of putting np buildings? Wn bavc not Rot tho money to pay, and to Rot it we must have the building. The btiiblinKN are necessary. Now the trouble is just I bib. Homo imagine that we arn going to apecnlatoon the city of Philadelphia, but nothing could be more erroneous; our interests and theirs are tlie am.. Aa guardians ol the city thi' should take an interest in the success of a Vhilailelphian institution like this. If we onlil only mnke them understand t Ins there would bo no tronbla at all in the matter. And I nin happy to aiaiethat some of them do unriVrstnnd it, and see that, it is to tho rest iutureat ot tbe city, ltniile. what, we want in nurney. We cannot keep np a seiomitio nistiiution with, ont it-norcanwe cninpeto or ennmare, without money, with the eiimtitic aehools of oihnr places. 1 ran suite, &oo, that our efforts In thif direetion have not be;m in v.-iin, ior during the paat year SMM.iKio b;is been raiMod for the pnrpoee. I have notiiing but words of oncour.igniiient to say in repard to the pronpect of endowment. It dMndi niHin the city. If wo have a loral habitation in which to put our buildings, we ahould have ni dilticnlty in getting ibc whole endowment (applause) of hall a million. Tho speaker then resumed his seat amid great applause. . Tito "City of Philadelphia" was the next toast a toast to whlrh his Honor Mayor Vox ritplii'd. Tho next toast was the "Alumni of the University." To this Hon, V. V. Smith responded. To the toast "The Law Alumni,'' (icorge I). Budd, Eho,., niadu a happy rospouse. The toast, "Our MedH'ul Graduates,' was respond ed to by Or. 11. L. llodi;o. The toast, "Our Army and Navy," wns answered by Onncral Louis Wagner In a lu iitf tribnto totue eonti'tlmtioiis which tho L'liivrrni'y had made to the army and navy during the late war. Tlie toast, "Tlie ITchs," wits responded to by Mr. Francis Wells. The toat, "The .Tndicliry," wns assigned to .lodge TIarc, whose response was listened to wllii great attention. Tho last, regular tnast, "Woman,'' was responded to by Thomas A. liiddle, Ustj., in some felicitous re marks. Mr. Henry C. Carey was then toasted, and In reply referred to tho important positions occupied by Pennsylvania in all its relations, educational and Industrial, to the Union. Trie company separated at a timely honr after an tvenlDg very agreeably spent.

Lttwact Cark The case of George W. Draper, Which waa to have been heard on last Saturday, came lip to-day on a writ of habeas corpus, but was post poned for another week, on account of the absence of counsel. - The writ waa for the purpose of testing the right of the managers of Klrkbrlde'a Insane Agylnm to detain the complainant, who Is said to have been an inmate of the institution for twenty years. The patient is related to a well-known bank note engraving firm, and his particular phase or in sanity is said to be In imagining himself a poet. We luive quite a number of such cusca running at large, to which the attention of the authorities should be directed. A wholesome correction or Imprisonment of all such would result In a great saving of time to editors. It AUCioi'B Miscn IB p.
