The One Hundred and Thirteenth Annual Com
mencementA Brilliant Nceue at the Academy
The Master' Oration and the Valedictory
Addrene.
It Is now considerably over a century since the
University of Pennsylvania was established In our
midst and since Its first annual commencement In
1867, the attendance of students has increased
yearly, and the facilities of the old structure have
been enlarged to a corresponding extent, until now
the space of ground occupied by it aud the adjacent
tonlldings is too circumscribed In dimensions to allow
of any further improvement. Necessarily, another
Bite had to be selected, and on the west bank of the
Schnyikill, In a short time, the ground will be broken
for the erection of the proposed buildings. It had
been Intended that the services of laying trie corner
stone should have taken place to-day, hut owing to
the impossibility of preparing that article In time,
the ceremony has been postponed to some future
day.
The annual commencements of this department
have always been among the il nest in Philadelp'ila.aii's
they have always been attended by the moBt refined
audiences. The 113th commencement to-day was
no exception to this rule, but on the contrary It out
rivalled all the preceding ones. The doors of the
Academy of Music were thrown open at 9 o'clock,
and in the next hour a constant stream of most
elegantly attired ladles and gentlemen poured into
the mammoth auditorium. So crowded was the
building that the aisles in the p irquette, parquette
circle and balcony were made use of by those who
had been unfortunate enougU to believe that the ex
cessively hot weather would deter hundreds from
being in attendance.
Each of the ladies seemed to be armed with a bou
quet intended for her favorite graduate, and the
ushers were kept busily employed in transferring
these tokens of regard from their fair custodians to
the stage. Here gentlemen commenced by laying
them In a line along the footlights, but It was soon
found that If that were continued the spectators
would have no view of those taking part in the cere
mony, and the floral gifts had to be conveyed to the
green-room, from which they were distributed at the
closing of the exercises.
At lo o'clock the Germanla began the proceedings
with a delightful piece of music, after which Pro
fessor and Kev. Charles P. Krauth addressed the
Throne of Grace.
This was followed by the reading of the Latin
Palutatorv, Harold Goodwin, the gentleman carry
ing oil' that honor being too ill to deliver his oration.
The programme subsequently was as follows:

ftlaater'n Oration) by Hainuel II. Collins, Esq.
Samuel B. Collins, Esq., delivered the Master's
oration, in which he paid particular attention to the
progress of education. He referred to the Middle
Ages, which had no prizes for the poet laurels alone
for the warrior; which had its very continuance and
life in arms, not in acquirements ; which obeyed ouly
the law of force of the stronger, and which had the
sword mightier than the pen.
In conclusion, and in referring to the progress edu
cation hal made since those duys, the orator said :
Our school systems are the admiration of the
world. And other civilized nations follow, some of
them not far behind, in the glorious course we have
taken. Right education. To its Importance and its
claims the whole world, the whole modern world,
has awakened. The revival of learning in the Mid
dle Ages aud the revival of learning in these ages!
Why, the one was but the flashing of a star, the
oiheris the blazing of a sun. Education with ui is
intellectual; and, a strange expression, it is intelli
gently intellectual. It not ouly takes hold of the
minds oi men, but of dissimilar minds ; and, know
ing this, it adapts itself to the mind strong and the
mind weak, the mind acute, the mind obtuse, the
speculative mind, the practical mind; it adapts
itself to every variety of mind. It is Intelligent.
Tbo farmer does not bow the same seed on the
highland and in the lowland what thrives on the
mountain dies In the valley. Ho with modern
education. The same thoughts, the same Ideas, the
same studies are not salted to all minds, and she
treats different minds in a different way. But why
dwell on this? To do it justice would take the many
pages of a voinme. Yet that volume is not needed
to-day. Of the truth of my words in this regard you
are all witnesses. The educational institutions of
the world, of this land especially the colleges, the
seminaries, the public schools are witnesses. Ap
peal to them. The colleges of the land I said ; I add
universities. And here a word rather let me glory.
I glory in this ; I glory in the University of Pennsyl
vaniathe venerable, the grand. I glory In my Alma
Slater, the Institution whose one hundred and thir
teenth commencement we celebrate to-day. One of
the first founded In America, her history has been
honorable, her repute noble. But for some years she
stood stllL she disobeyed the law of progression,
on which we are dwelling. Her children feared
for her lest she was to be removed. To-day, thanks
to you, Gentlemen of the Board, to you, sirs, of the
Faculty, to the energy and push of her friends, the
kindness of the city, she is again on the advance,
and the far advance. Is lie satisfies the law. With
the swelling of the new life within her, her old
dwelling-place, the classic halls her children trod
for many generations became too small. She has
driven her stakes anew beyond the river, and there
she will be first and proudest among universities.
Take her catalogue; run over her corps of profes
sors ; see her curriculum. As a classical school she
never bad a superior; as a medical, never; her law
faculty is composed of eminent jurists ; and now ar
rangements v.re being made to furnish her with a
scientific school, which her friends fondly hope may
rival those of Yale and Harvard. I'nllke many the
great majority of our colleges she is built upon
no sectarian foundation ; she recognizes no religious
'tests;" within her walls the believer of any creed,
the adherent of any sect, may become a student. Her
views are the broadest, the most liberal. And this
being so, in a great city like Philadelphia, she should
be a pride, and from the citizens the wealthy and
cultured especially her claims for support should
receive munificent recognition. The University of
Pennsylvania, complete la all her parts, should be
. the glory of Philadelphia, as she is the glorv of her
children to-day. And she is a witness of the truth
of my words in respect of modern education. With
her you are witnesses. Tais I said. Many of you
whom I address are grey with years of honorable
service in education's cause; you have beta in the
battle, and yon now wear the laurels; you know if

The Valedictory, by II. tJ. Ward, Esq.
Henry G. Ward, the valedictorian, after paying a
handsome compliment to the Faculty and the Board
of Trustees of the University, addressed his feilow
stixlents as follows:
The true character of college life as the era of
preparation, the time for the formation of character
which conditions alike the future tuauhood and the
future man, is too little appreciated. Students who
should be training themselves for great things, often
act as a gardener who. having sowed a precious
seed, lets the sun bake the earth hard about It, and
the weeds grow thick aronnd It, expecting that by
some marvellous freak it shall shoot up strong and
beautiful, an exception to the laws of nature aud to
the conditions of its true existence, louth and
manhood are two stages not related in the way of
consecution alone, but so intimately blended that
manhood, with its glory or lis shame, depends
almost entirely on the youth of which it is merely
the development. Neglect this all-important fact as
you may, hereafter, when you consider the successes
and failures of your life, you will trace them with
the certainty of intuition to the axioms which you
assumed in your youth.
We ourselves write down our futures in the book
which we ignorantly call the book of Fate. While
in your college course do your duty without fear.
Cultivate mental strength aud moral firmness, ami you
grasp the elements of mauhood In your youth. This
is not only moral it is politic ; this is not only re
ligion It Is prudence; this is not only the command
of the Gospel it la the wisdom of the world.
In these years of preparation you may neglect the
laws of nature and the laws of God, but they are
laws still. You may forget the future, but the fu
ture will come; aud when you have emerged from
a course that once seemed long enough to err and
amend in a thousand times, you will look back and
see, as we do, that those few years were shaping the
conduct of your lives. Valete.
And to you, my classmates, I come last of all, to
say vale over the ties aud associations which have
crept around our hearts and to bid them farewell
forever; to cast a vail over the irrevocable past, and
to bid you look forward Into the future determined
to make your new commencement with new im
pulses and higher resolutions.
Though a sad occasion, it is one on which we may
drop good seed iuto our hearts, chastened by the
sorrow that accompanied our new-bought freedom.
There is no more tender nor more humane passion
than the regret man feels at relinquishing those
persons or things which time and association have
made a part of his nature. Including every variety
of sorrow and love, this feeling has within its com
pass the sweetest and richest chords of the heart.
And these are the chords which are so rudely
struck to-day. Those who for years have met to
gether, those who have shared the same toil, the
same pleasures, the tame pains, separate to-day to
meet again only by chance and each to enter a new
and different sphere. The connections and relations
of college life are severed, and we feel a void within
us, a void which hungers to be tilled, but which nevr
can be really satisfied till we have eaten of the Tree
of Knowledge and the Tree or Life. Of the first we
have already tasted, and to-day it shall be mine to
point you to that other tree which can add to know
ledgeLife. The days of our fellowship are gone and
the heart involuntarily demands "Is it all over?-'
Our youth is passed, aud we ask "Is it dead for
ever ?" No, no, my classmates ; four years arc gone,
but the fruits of those years are stored within us
the acts of those years are becomo a part of our
nature are entered into our souls. How bitter the
retrospect to him who can look back aud admit that
they have made him no nobler, no purer I To
such an one this day should give a new heart and
a new goal. The day w hlch introduced ns to life is
a tit one to fill our souls with tho resolution tp for
sake those crooked paths which moat be trod with
bleeding feet aud aching hearts (or thoso higher
walks which with toil bring satisfaction, and to
whose wayfarers, when night cometh down, "He
giveth His beloved sleep."
We may look back upon our college course and
find every possible element of life and character.
Each has been tested in youth, and experieuce
points out those necessary to successful manhood.
We have found that steady application is the con
dition of solid attainment; that chicanery and de
ceit may mislead for a season.but In the end come ex
posure and remorse. We have learned that an honest
appreciation of every man's work crushes that
jealousy which belittles Its posstssor without lnlnrjng
lis oojeci; ana, iinany, we nave learned mat nib de
sire to make others happy aud ourselves contented
is the true love of our feliow-men the genuine
philanthropy. Let us, thpn, as we enter upon th?
great highway of life, cast away those elements of
character which can only weigh us down, ami resolve
to keep that clear conscience and stout heart which,
even after a life of trial and disappointment may
make our motto our epitaph :
"Ad astra per aspera."
I have spoken of the future because it is to be met,
and because, had I spoken of the past, I could have
uttered no greater, no truer eulogy than that we
have lived together, and now separate without envy,
hatred, or dispute. And now, my classmates, we
part for the first time. When we meet again in the
battle of life may the old spirit of 70 make us young
once more, and when the last name upon our roil
shall be marked "absent," may the whole class of
'70 meet In that Eternal Chapel where no rod shall
be called, no absence recorded, and where never
again shall be uttered the word Valctel
T1IE GREAT OIL FIRE.
The Disaster at PlttsbursT-OlI Tanks Struck
by Lightning Loas of Lite Terrible (Scenes
Hall ii Million Dollars ef Property De
stroyrd. The Pittsburg Commercial of yesterday elves the
following particulars of the disaster previously re
ported by telegraph:
"ine most uisasirous on connagration ever Known
in the State of Pennsylvania occurred yesterday
afternoon, in the Eighteenth ward, opposite the
borough of Sharpsburg.
THE THUNDER STORM. .
Shortly after 8 o'clock there loomed up around
the horizon black threatening clouds and the ram
bling thunder told of the terriho etorm that was
approaching. In a few moments the wind became
almost a tornado; vivid flashes of lightning and
terrible peals of thunder followed, aud soon the
awful work of devastation commenced.
THE CON FIGURATION.
About half-past two o'clock tho lightnlntr struck
simultaneously a 20,ooo barrel tank belonging to the
Eclipse works, anu one neionging to tne citizens'
Woiks. The burning oil from these set Are to the
adjoining premises, and flowed rapidly down to the
bridge, setting lire to all buildings that came In its
way, and soon the bridge was enveloped in flames.
It was hut an Instant and a pall as black as midnight
settled over the entire vlclnltr,and men were fleeing
from the terrible scene without scarcely being able
to see then way. The flames swept down upon the
office where Mr. H. B. Foster, the book keeper of
the Eclipse Works, was iltting, and only a few
charred remains are left to tell his sad fate.
In a few moments the scene presented was in
describably and awfully grand. The spectator who
stood upon the hillside above the bridge could obtain
a complete view of the dreadful conflagration.
About fifteen acres of burning tanks, dwellings,
and buildings lay just before him. From each tank
came rolling up lmmease columns of deuse smoke,
and ever and anon the flames wonid leap skyward,
as If anxious to follow the pillars of smoke in their
upward course. Five huge columns of smoke
marked the points were oil tanks were burnlnir. and
the dwelling house of Dr. Tweedle and the buildings
of the Eclipse Refinery tilled In the intervening
space with lurid flames. Beyond this, clearly
eleaming through the smoke, the Sbarpsburg Bridge
was to be seen, clearly defined and blaztug ami
cracking, about to fall. Soon it fell: on each side
of the high piers the woodwork fell into the river,
and, serpent like, floated hissing down the current.
Just then there arose from the burning mass or
the Eclipse ruins the screeching of the steam, es
caping from the safetp-valvea of the six large
boilers, and the crowd drew back In momentary
expectation of an explosion. The valves whistled
and screeched in a tone that sounded like the
mourning of some unknown monster over the awful
spectacle.
The conflagration extended along the river bank
for about hail a mile, and the ties of the Allegheny
Valley Railroad were set on Are and the rails warped
into almost every conceivable shape.
The air was tilled with burning cinders, and some
f the nrst struck and ignited a tank of crude oil
belonging to Forsytbe Bros., and also set Are to the
settling aud agitating house of the National Ke
nning and Storing Company, over a quarter of a
mile below the place where the first tire broke out.
TUB LOSS.
Dr. Tweddle estimates the total loss at his place
at atout tiiso.ooo, on which he has an insurance of
$iu,uoo. His loss on the buildings and oil machinery
was about iwi,0ii0 snd on oil SiO.ooo. and on para-
one and machinery iioe.ooo. -i n loss at the ciu
ulj' Woria was tsUuwicd. at f iQfiW early last even
leg, but it was not Improbable that their building
might be destroyed. This company ts pretty fully
Insured. The loss of Forsythe Wrothers, by burning
of a tank, is estimated at tl.vooo on which there is
no Insurance. The Astral OH works lose f 50.000;
slight Insurance. The loss of Dilworth Brothers Is
probably not over 11200. The loss of the National
Works will likely be upwards of 130,000. Eight cars
of crude oil standing on the track of the Allegheny
Valley Railroad In front of the Citizens' oil refinery
were burned, and also the same number at one or
of the refineries below. The Sharpsburg bridge was
Insured for l-m.ooo.
The most of the property destroyed was Insured
In Eastern companies, a great deal of it through the
agency of Swearingen & McCandless.
TDK DEATH Of MR. FOSTER.
Our reporter conversed wi'h Mr. John Moreland,
who found the charred body of Mr. Foster, and he
stated that the remains were found Just where Mr.
Foster, who was book-keeper of tho Arm, was likely
to have been.
The body was subsequently Identlflcnd as that of
Mr. Foster by the finding of his pocket-knife and
other articles near the charred remains, the articles
being recognized by Dr. Tweddle last evening. Mr,
Moreland, the Ulegraph operator of the Western
Union Telegraph Company, whose office is in the
same building with Mr. Foster, stated that when he
left the office but a few minutes before the Ore, Mr.
F'oster was there. It appears that Mr. Foster h id
been np town about 13 o'clock, but had returned
shortly before the Are. It is net improbable that he
was knocked down by the shock of the licrhtnlng
and failed to recover in time to make his escape.
Mr. Foster was a brother of the late Stephen
Foster, and a most worthy and estimable citizen.
VARIOUS INCIDENTS',
An employe of the Citizens' Oil Refinery, It is
Stated, observed the flash of lightning and saw it
strike the tank alluded to. He also felt thesh ick
produced by it and canr.e near being prostrated.
Almost instantly, however, he rushed frantically
to a window in the second story and leaped out. By
this time his brother and several other persons em
ployed in the refinery, who also felt the shock, had
run upon the bridge, and the immense vol
ume of flame and smoke which immediately
thereafter entered the opening on this sld of the
river caused an exciting chase over tho bridge, the
brother on tnis side of the river, and who was the
only person who saw them run on to the bridge,
being frenzied in regard to their safety. The time
consumed in the burning of the bridge was only
eight minutes, and we can imagine the feelings of
these men on the bridge, who, iiaving once enturcd
it, were terrified at beholding the burning oil sweep
ing after them with a velocity almost double what
they could run.
A car of the Citizens' Passenger Railway, well
filled with passengers, had just turned the curve In
the road leading to the bridge when th lightning
struck the tank and sent the burning oil high In the
air, and the driver barely had time to check the car
beiore getting into the midst of the fire, as there is a
very steep grade here. Had it reached its usual
stopping place, there would have been little hope for
the passengers, for a number of them would either
have been on the bridge crossing, and possibly all
of them would have sought shelter in the bridge, a
slight, rain prevailing at the time, or len in the
otllce of the Ecllrse Oil Works, where Mr. Foster
was located, as it was generally used as the railway
station of the passe.cger railway by those acquainted
with Mr. Foster, whose geulality won lor him many
friends. In any event, these passengers would have
been hemmed in on all sides by the fire, aud escape
would have been next to Impossible.

THBIR WORK.
Since the departure of the expedition from this
port on the U'id of January, both the Guard and
Nipsic have been as busy as bees. Their crews
have woiked diligently from Monday morning until
Saturday night, and frequently the Sabbath has been
made a day of labor, in order to achieve the great
object oi tneir unuei taking, on account or the
rugged nature of the country on the Pacific side, the

(February) a transit line and a line of levels was

of Lieutenant Schultz, of the Ouard. The source of
the river was reached, after which they crossed the
Corderillas at an elevation of looo feet above the
level of the sea. and descended down the Faclrla
side until they struck lb- R ver Sucubtl at an eleva

Untaxed Tobacco.
Collector J. P. Wilcox, of the Fifth Virginia dis

He estimates the amount or tobacco so used In
Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, Texas,

million ponnds.
xne law provides ror taxing oniy "mannractnroQ"

were yesterday transmitted to the Chairmen or the
Committees on Finance and Ways and Means, and
the revenue law will be so amended as to cover the
case.

The mistrict Attorney opposed the motion, but the

Increases the dullness in business circles, whilst

"The report of the oonferenoe committee on the Cur
rency bill was rejected this afternoon bj an emphatic
vole of the Hiuee, which is no more than was expeoted
by those who knew that the Western members and
many of their Eastern brethren are unalterably opposed
to contraction in any form. Tne Washington
telegram further ssys that 4 new conference
committee has been appointed. The question naturally
sugitests itself. Are the new committee to act upon the
virt ual wishes of the House as manifested in the rejection
of the Contraction bill and ro to the other extreme by
reporting one or lnimtionr i tie defeated bill originated
in the benate. Should the new one to be prepared by
tbe I!oue committee propose expansion it would meet
with little favor at the bands of the Henate, and for
tbis reason the currency question will go by the
board for tbe present aeuion, Tbe whole country will
then rejoice that the antagonistic position of tbe two
brunches of Congress on tbe question of tbe finances has
prevented tbem Irom tinkering witb tbe currency. Last
winter tbe Funding bill hung like a pall over commercial
circles. It is time that tbe depression in trade resulting
from tbe agitation of this currency question was for ever
dissipated.
"Kxcopt during a brief interval In the afternoon, when
the vote was being taken on tbe Currency bill and when
tbere was some unosinoss lest it niiabt accidentally
go turougn (wan stroet being vsry suspicious as to
wnat tne speculators in uongresa mignc do), gold
was steady and strong. At the period referreif to
a large sale eccurred on Canadian account, the
proceeds to bo reinvested in five-twenties, and
the price declined from lllsi to llljrf. Tbe average price
of tne day, however, ws IUM. The stronger tane of the
market was dne to advanced quotations for foreign ex
change, whioh in turn is firm in consequence of tbe light
snpply of commercial bills on the market, and also
by reason of an expectation, not deeply founded,
however, that tbe activity in money in London
reported to-day will suggest, if it does not occa
sion, an advance in the (discount rate when the Bank of
Kngland directors meet to-morrow morning. These faota
must account for the sodden strength whioh the market
(hews, despite the continued dinbursement of coin in
terest at the Sub-Treasury, wbere$l,2Hl),13 gold was paid
out to-day, making a total, thus far, of $3,ti87,i39.
