417031DENCEMENT WEEK OF
DEAVER LADIES' SEMIS-
• Having been present throughout
the closing exercises of this Semin
ary, and taken notes of all that occur
red, we propose furnishing the pub
lic a statement of our • views, hoping
that others better qualified than we
are will do justice to the occasion.
• The first thing on the programme
wasa sermon 'on Sabbath evening,.
June 20th in the U. I'. Church of Bea
ver, by Rev. J. M. Shields, pastor of
the Presbyterian Church" Of Bridge

finely written and well deliveted.—
His theme was to hold forth the wo
men of the . Bible for an encourage
ment to those whom ho addressed.
We cannot give even an' outline of
the diseouise bete; but must say that
the pictures lie dreit of the moral and
mental excellence of setae whose bi
ography is given in the Bible, and of
their superiority over some who fig
ure before the world In our own day,
was'really fine; and in mane instances
sublime. And whilst claiming that
the instances cited 'proved that wo- '
men possessed the mental ability to
tuba the world, he assigned her a
more unostentatious, but more use
ful position, such as' we think her na
ture and her God have specially qual
ified her to occupy. An'appreciative
audience listened with a quiet and
fixed attention, which proved that
in their judgement his sermon was a
success. • ,
The examination of classes com
menced on Tuesday at 10 o'clock; a.
m., and continued throughout that
day and all of the next. There were
eighteen classes in all examined.—
•Miss Lizzie H. Dever conducted the
examination of the classes' in Arith
metic, Algebra, Gratinnar, Geogra
phy, Citizen's Manuel or Constitution
of the United States, and General His
tory. Miss Anna M. Smith conduct
ed examinations in Arithmetic, Al-
Geometry,'Botany, Physiolo
gy and Astronomy; Dr. Riggs in
Latin Lessons, Ursa.; Horace, Trig
onometry and Logic; and Dr. M'Lean
In Mental Philosophy. All these
Blames did well. At first the pupils
did not speak loud enough, but their
diffidence wore off after one or two
classes had been examined, and they
spoke louder: Generally their an
swers were given promptly and dis
tinctly. There was nothing like a
falluniin any class. The Principal
showed his confidence in both his
teachers and pupils by asking_ ques
tions on the different studies and in
viting persons from the audience to
do sat, some of whom embraced the
opportunity.' The result proved that
the training was thorough, and that
there was no attempt to put pupils
over the Course of studies simply for
the sake of the form.
It Is an easy thing for teachers to
so train classes for examination that
the pupils may seem to recite well,
and yet know little or nothing of the
text-books, and teachers putting their
questions In such forms as almost to
tell the pupils how to answer. Ex
aminations of this kind. are some
timesladmcsi on the public as evi
dence of. scholarship. Nothing of
this kind was witnessed here. We
venture nothing in sayinfpthat every
intelligent person was satisfied with
the fairness of these examinations.
Miss Mary I•l'Lean, teacher of vo
cal musid, presided at the organ,while
her pupils from time to time inter
spersed the exercises with some ex
cellent music. -

There was but asingle defect In the
whole of the above performances—
the young ladies did not read loud
enough to be heard by the whole
audience. ; Those In the niiddle block
of the church, and some on the sides,
heard all the maws, but others di ck
a
This, the Principal informs us,
Was chiefly owing to the fact that,
having read their essays there in the
former part of the day, their inexpo.
rience did riot enable them to make
sufficient allowance for the Increased
volume of voice necessary to 1111- the
house when n large audience was
present. In the preparatory reading,
when few were present, they could be
distinctly heard In every part of the
house. The 4awys were well writ
ten, and the style of reading was
generally good, with the exception
that there was not sufficient volume
of voice.
The musk; both instrumental and
vocal, was good, and did credit to the
pupils In theirdifferentdegrees of ad
vancement. The solo by Mbap'Gra
dy, Teacher of Instrumental Music
In the Seminary, was really excel
lent, and has seldom been equalled,
before a Beaver andience. _
One of the very best evidences of
the whole performance as having been
a success, is the fact that, though the
exercises continued till after 11 o'clock
there was no evidence of weariness,
no uneasiness nor confusion in the
densely packed audience; but every
person seemed disposed to remain
quiet and attentive to the last. Bet
ter order we never witnessed before
on any like occasion.
After the exercises were over, the
teachers, performers, last }Toes grad
uating class, and a few 4tnuigers, re
turned with the Principal and fami
ly to the Seminary where they en
joyed the good things prepared for
them, and sPent some time in social

OLIVER HUNT'S GREAT PLEA
When Oliver Mint was . twenty
one, he decided to study law. He
was a good, looking, pleasant' fellow,
of fair ability. The young ladies
thought him handsome and talented.
The more enthusiast le ones prolmine
el him 'splendid.' Ile certainly had
a great deal of niney, and spent it
very freely, points On which all were
agreed.
When Oliver onnounced his deter
mination to study law, many opin
ions yore expressed on the subject.
lle was, the center of an admiring
eircie of friends, who, of course (lid
not all }bli nk alike. The older ladie.:l,
among 'whom was Ms mother, hoped
that he would he a clergyman ; while
the younger ones, with charming
worldliness, thought he would make
a magnificent lawyer.
There was,
however, ono notable
exception. Funny Shaw said one
day,
'Oliver Hunt will never make a
saccessfill lawyer; he is too fituciful.'
Oliver heard the remark, and rt. , -
'membered it.
In due time he was admitted to the
bar, but as this honor is conferred on
all young men who luve gone
through the required studiesand pre
sented themselves at the proper time
and place, his admission signified
nothing, except that he was ready M
improve hiinself,
Privately, Oliver hadl no especial
liking for the profession; nor did he
need its fees. He resoneil thus: 'By
studying faithfully for two or three
years, I shall add greatly to my stock
Hof knowledge, aftd make myself a
, stronger man. Moreover, if this for
! tune of mine-should some day take
to itself wings, and that other plan
should fail, 1 would still have some
thing to rely on.'
After his admission, he mid to him
self: 'Now I see that everybody is
expecting me to do something In the
professional haVen't the least
Idea of doing anything ; ! but I shall
hang out a shingle, just for appear
! afire. So he caused a wing of his
.mother's house to assume a legal air,
and placed a sign on the door, post.
.If read after this fashion:
`Now,' said ho jocosely, must
wait for a client.' It
Ile did not 'wait' by sitting in his
Mike until the client tame; 'that,'
he said 'would be conduct-Ye to dys
pepsia.' Accordingly ho exercised
and,refreshed himself by such gentle
stiniulants as croquet and • picnic s.
with - the ladies, while with his
mugher companions he boated, fished
mid hunted . with a mil that Inside
dyspepsia a sheer impassibility.
. Indeed, 'When I say that three
Months fisted away without bring
ing a client, the assertion is founded
on my own observations, for that
'personage might have knocked at the
office door six days in the week, and
Oliver would have been unconscious
of the fact. on Sunday only Aid he
honor his sign by getting behind it.
Between church hours he diligently
raid the magazines, retiring to this
uncongenial region last he should
worry his mother by a display of lit
erature not appropriate fo the day.
Had ho by chance seen a poMble cli
ent coming up the gravelled path he
would have summarily locked the
door.
Ilisfriends were troubled by such
strange conduct. It became Mogen
end impression that though Hunt
was a clever fellow, ho was altogether I
too easy for a lawyer. Not content
with astonishing his friend by .ne
glectlng his bassinets during the day,
ho comassionly Iperplexed his mother
by sitting up ludf the night. What

'Thank you, Judge, ttuutk you,'
said Oliver. tutn glad Id hear you
say so; it gives me courage. The.
fact is,' ke continued, with some hes

very IPorttudorte. Indeed,though
I have said nothing about it, It has
bothered me a good deal of late. I
—I think I shall bring it before the
court inn day or two.
'Right, Oliver, right,' said the
Judge greatly pleased 'Cautious,l
see, yotrdim't want to . he over coni

more confidential tone, 'ls the case
an important one? Any money in

• 'Twenty thousand at least,' replied
Oliver. 'lt lam auceemful will be ,

'Oh, you won't fail—the word Isn't

'Let me see,' said Oliver With an
air of "deliberation, 'you musn't do

'Good,' returned the judge as he
walked brisk ly away. 'Twenty thou

while,' he soliloquized. Oliver is a
deeper fellow than I took him to be.
He knows how to keep hisown coun

Meanwhile, Oliver had looked at
his watch, ordered the carriage, and
was ransacking the garden for a gor
geous Ixspiet. He did look rather
deep, and there was an odd expres
sion on his Ewe which the keetust ob

l its daughter also looked quite NM

was evidently a friend of long stand
