The weather at starting was splendid. Two splendid trains conveyed the party from Camden Station, the first train comprising live coaches, and the second six coaches, all richly decorated and resplendent in the national colors. There were about MO persons in the two trains, Including Presi dent John NV.

FRANKLIN h MARSHALL COLLEGE A STATUE UNVEILED AND A CORNER-STONE Seldom have the towers of Franklin and Marshall College looked down on a scene so animated, and exercises no interesting as those witnessed on her Campus on Wednes day. The occasion was one set apart for the unveilingof the Rauch monument, and the laying of the corner-stone of Harbaugh Hall. At the time appointed a large num ber of the Alumni, and others connected directly with the College, as well as a good ly number of the citizens of Lancaster as sembled in front of the building where ar rangements had been made for their accoinmodation. After the singing of the 'Pc //cum by the College choir and students the blessing of God upon the exercises was invoked by the venerable head of the in stitution, Dr. Nevin. Dr. Gerhart delivered a memorial ad dress, briefly sketching the life of Dr- Rauch, his labors and their results. Com ing to this country while yet a young man, the quick sense of the German Retbrined Church, sharpened by a feeling of its ne cessities, led it to call him to the Chair of Mental and Moral Philosophy, and the Presidency of her literary institution.— Bringing with him his rich store of classi cal learning and profound philosophy, his entrance into the Church constituted a new epoch in its career. Resisting the tempta tion which circumstances offered to trans plant the German spirit, literature and philosophy, to this spot, he proceeded to direct the vital forcesof the Church to a com bination of the two elements and establish an institution, and philosophy eminently Anglo-Germanic in its character. A ripe scholar in the literature of both languages, he found here, in .the German Reformed Church, circumstances well titled for the realization of his ideas: lie laid the limn dation of a positive Christian faith—plant ing the seed and watering it with his tears, which has grown a mighty tree. Devoting his life and labor to the building of all in- • • • - - titution and philosophy moro enduring von than this beautiful tribute of affection bleb the pupils of his teachings rear to yto his memory. The speaker dilated length on the character of Dr. Itauch's ilosophy and its subsequent develop eta in the church and through its educa inal institutions. Hon. John Cessna being called upon, as former student of Dr. Itauch, in a brief [threes Lure testimony 1, his remarkable .raider as a Christian philosopher, 1. ,found nihulur and a polished gentle Inm—irreproachable in character and uni 'ersally popular. Mr. CeNNIIu spoke of the inurement among the Alumni in the erec ion of this monument, its origin, progress, mil congratulated them On its final Coll ,ttrittnation to-day. Ile was followed by Ilan. John \V. linger, who spoke of Dr. It.'s personal 4 . 11 dueler, his social relations, and gave sonio interesting reniiniscencesof his death and burial, the, latter occurring um the 4th Si!,l the day of (len. I larrison's uuigi ration.

Mr. K. relerred feelingly to the different Presidents of the College, and trusted tin present moyemeuL might result in a testi inomal that their labors haul lea been it After his address the procession was inintql, and moved to the monument, hicL 1111,1 110011 erected on the right hand • file of the campus, between the right wing f the College and the avenue. It is set on mound surrounded by in neid railing and beittitilul, chaste and classical piece ot orluuaunhip, rtilleeting great credit opt. he artist. Tho base is of blue marble, and the body ,r on which is inscribed on the mall sale Moappropriate inscriptions: "A Mristian phlusopher, Philo:mph, (1 dtatet "lighted it deo, pr7l It UN /1,11.thl refilled 1,1."

The con .opuon of this idea Was a very happy ono, mil its execution a decided Success. The tionument is surmounted by IL handsome •ross, tine whole adding greatly to the matity and interest of the Campus. Alter llin invocation and the repetition it the A pestles' Creed, the unveiling ad tress was delivered by Rev. J. Miller, who spoke fir LAIL, significance of this testi monial to the memory of the Christian philosopher, and of the propriety of plac ing it on the College Campus, where it may servo to inspire all who may look upon it with zeal in studying that true philosophy Mituded in the Gospel of Johns Christ and Milos , : the faith of those Saints who have died in the Lord and now live with Ilion forever more. May this memorial of it Christian philosopher's study, in which lit , is seated in the middle thereof, with the word id' God before him comparing the philosophy fit s this world with revealed truth, and thus testing its morits, teach the students of this College what is the be ginning and end of all wisdom. :slay this midnight lamp, the upturned hour-glass, and the fallen manuscript, remind them too. that knowledge is only gained by pa tient. toil. :slay this globe celestial, broken wreath of flowers and volumes which remain of departed genius remind them Chat true iv is nionn comes from above, and the truly beau tiful is only found in the person of Christ. And that whilst we all tau fade as a leaf, and like the flowers, wither and die, they will have found the unfading and unchanging when they shall have truly learned to know II nu who has made the cross sacred Mill glorious, "fir he is the saline yesterday, to day Will forever. " And may each student ILS he returns from each recitation, if his eye rusts upon this nionuniontof tine first Presi dent of the College, remember the motto it bears, "Philosophy slightly tasted leads from html,lt but deeply drank leads back to the same," and that when they leave these I shades, the world lies before them, not sim ply to excite their ambition, lint in which each for himself shall be called to solve the problem or The address of which wo have given but an extract was eloquently delivered, and made a deep impression fin the minds of the listeners. It was followed by prayer, and after the singing of the Gloria the exercises closed with the Benediction. After many had availed themselves of the opportunity to examine the monument the procession moved to the new hull, in tended for the accommodation of students, and of which the corner-stone was now laid in accordance with the following ordet of exercises: Prayer by W.

Seldom has it been our lot to witness a scene to interesting, so sat isfactory, and co appropriate. The exer cises throughout were conducted is an im pressive nonuser, well calculated to pro duce effects which augur hopefully lor the success or the institution. We heard several a t h e Alumni remark that this seemed like old times, and while it led them back to the gala days or Mqrshall College, opened to their view a bright prospect fur the future or their Alma Mater, 'l'll HE-UNION. The re-union of the Diagnothian Literary Society was held in an upper noun of Ful ton Hall, at the conclusion of the able Ad dress in the large hall, before the Society of the Alumni by Cyrus V. Mays. It was ap proaching ten o'clock, as a large company of the members of the Society sat down at the well-tilled board ; to the discussion of its elegant viands, after the saying of grace by the Rev. Mr. Barker, they gave their devoted attention for half-amffiour. Then Mr. Louis Zahnor, of the class of '72 made a short but very neat address of welcome, after which General Hartraffit assumed his place as presiding officer, and with a few introductory words, began the announce ment of the toasts. lie introduced the gen tleman who was to respond to the first toast, after first stating the satisfaction it had been to him at one period during the war, when it had been his duty to open a ' correspondence with the enemy in his 'front, to Bud that the officer in command was a Diagnothian; he felt assured then that should the fate of war place him in the hands of the enemy, he would have a friend at court who would make his lines as easy to him as possible. It was Henry ICyd Douglass, who would speak to them of "Our Ite•union." Major Douglass made a very eloquent ad dress. He said in substance: This re union is to me the more impressive, be cause of the faces I do not see, the voices I do not Lear. There is in, this no want of compliment to those present hero this evening, and, I will be forgiven if in trying to wade back through the ex citing events which lengthened and filled up the years since I was a student, I I should look about me for the faces and listen for the names of those who are away from us in the world or who have gone to where beyond these voices there is peace. My connection with the College was of short duration, but, that time w • as full of struggle for the Diagnothlan Society. (He then spoke of the difficulties and em barrassment encountered in the erection of the present beautiful Hall.) After I left, the horrid wave of war rolled between us ct• the South, and our Alma Mater, and carried away many of our dearest friends with it. Others'may speak of our distin guished dead, the fragrance of whose mem orles still hangs about us;but Just now there clime bunk to me, the names of two -won from their untimely graves, upon each of whom. in his way, had been stamped the seal of noble manhood. For gentle ness in manner, and firmness in principle, modesty and charity of speech, strict Integ rity, cultivated mind and a long line of virtues:—the Diagnothian Society has on its rolls the name of no one, who will fill up the measure of such a man more completely titan Theodore Fisher. The other, Clinton Remit, was the bravest, most chivalric, most open-handed and truest man I have ever known ; if not without reproach, cerotinly without fear ; one with a courage as keen and as pol ished as his sword. The speaker spoke in fur ther eulogy of his two friends and Diagno thians,one of whom died in the Union army, theother perished for the cause of the South; both by terrible and early deaths; and then said;,—Clinton Hermit and Theodore Fisher, two men more unlike it were diffi cult to find ; yet they were friends ; friends iu wiety, friends in the fraternity ; to the last, friends in reality, although foes in nano. 1 would like to drop a rose from the same stem on the grove of each.— And hero to-night let us call up their mem ories, and strike hands across their graves. Summon them back to life and there would be no enmity between them. Can we not learn a lessoh from their lives and deaths. I wish to arouse no unpleasant recollections. Let (hero sleep. / COMO not like Old Mortality, with hammer and chisel to freshen the scars and dig deeper the re cords, wine!) mercy would dint and oblit erate. I Mil 110 t here to chant a sad re frain by the sea-side, and to give ceaseless moan fur the dead its bil lows have swallowed up. lint, like the fabled land, may this people arise from their ashes p, a new and a higher life of civilization. Let us hope that they have gathered manhood from adversity, like the jewel from the shinny head of the annul ; and as true and brave men sprang from the dragon's teeth which Cadmus sowed, so from the 1110011 which necks the intround and the political re-union of our people, may there arise another generation, and wiser children, who will bear our ban ner of civilization in the van of peoples anal tat war-drum , throb no longer, and th Jar e lurk tt of than, the Federation t lie world. A. Iteitioehl responded to the toast of "the Society at !Mine." lie expressed his doubt as to whether he WILY expected. tlc Of that female society at lititne,which the student so assiduously went in search ado t all his spare evenings after making an elaborate toilet; or of that other satiety aL Immo which had accrued to the married graduates; or of the Inaginithian Society in its tattle at Lancaster. Ile accepted this latter its the true meaning of the sen timent and proclaimed the re-unions of the Society at Home to he green oasis to its members struggling through the desert of life, to which they were wont to past ti for refreshment and solace. The l',tst of the Society trite spoken of in in very pleasant way Icy the lion. John W. I: Winger, of Lebanon. Ile commenced by saying that the Society was a great iustilu tiotl; "its struggles and triumphs wore .mall With those of the ('allege.'' 'I his "hipsus,"Joliiit'essini,who was sitting close by, called attention to by asking, — which ;ire small, John, the struggles or the triumphs?' \I r. K illingcr alter a momentary ctiort to recover himself and itir Cessna, acknowledged the point, declaring "I am not often taken down ; but Our cool impudence commend me to John Cessna." Speaking soberly, ho said -1 which John Cessna never does) the Society hits grown and prospered in a veryttlatter nig way. When it removed from York about Is:ti; it had but ten members and four of these lell by the wayside ; so that it hail but six in hen it arrived at Mercersburg, "sweet Morcersburg, loveliest village of the plain; but 'tis tiistance lends enchant- Illent to the View." live Or these mem bers were Dr. Bomberger, A. S. Young, burgh 11. Martin, I/r. t/erhard and I. E. I [ousel% They had only No volumes then in their library; but the members borrow ed on their individual credit, small as it was. By the energy of its members the Society has been growing ever since; it was in perpetual motion, and was the only sue cessful instance of the execution of that vexed problem that he knew of. Mercers burg in the olden time was the whole world to the students; they knew of but four phwes beside it, and they were Famum's IC imb,Back Creek,Jamesllnehanan's birth place, and the Cave ; these were their points of the compass. John Cesr ua was the great agent of the Society in securing new /nem -I;ers ; he could smell an inchoate freshman ho approached the village in the stage coach When it was yet ti he miles oil', and by the time it arrived he had talked the youngster nearly to death and quite to Di agnothianism. The speaker ;let-tared that he owed more to the Society than he did to the College; the latter had never conferred a D. D. or L. L. D. on hint, and for his sheep-skin lie had paid its full value. Ile thought the Society should take a new departure; it could not live on dead issues; he did not know whore it should depart to, but it was fashionable to depart and they should follow the fashion. They should all try to get into oilier they could nut all expect to be Congressmen, but he hoped that one of them would 1,0 the next to,e ernor of Pennsylvania. [Referring to I tart ranft's candidacy]. 1/r. Nevin, President of the College, spoke briefly of "The Theological Seminary of the Reformed Church," and expressed the happiest anticipations of the good that would arise from the re- union of'tho Col lege and Seminary now being accom plished. I/r. Washington L. Atlve, of Philadel phia, spoke of "Lancaster; her educational and literary efforts; /luring the third and fourth decades of the nineteenth century." The first eflort he cited Was the, establish- Meta of the Lancasterian system by the NZW!E row. About the same time, or in IS:2S, a Medical quizzing Club and Debating So ciety was started and continued fur three years by 17 surge P. Pepper, Jonathan M. Foltz, Ilenry Deitrich and the speaker. Only two of these were now living—Dr. Foltz, who is a distinguished surgeon in the Navy, standing at the height of his pro fession, and himself. Then the Academy was instituted under the control of Mr. Mareellus, Mr. Muhlenberg and Mr. lteed. It was alterwards merged into the Common School System, and then ;tgain transferred to Franklin College.— Soon an organization of the Master Mechanit.s way started ; their first l'resi- . . dent, was Hugh Maxwell, and the Associ ation became a very flourishing one. A Lyceum was started; at the first meeting called to organize it in the old Court I lo•se, (a beautiful building whosedestruetion:was a sacrilege,) only four persons attended— James Demant,George I'. Pepper, Eli Parry and the Speaker. 'rhey persevered in their effort, however, and in a year or two had In members. Dr. Atlee concluded by urging his young hr: u •rrs to diligently strive in the second, third and fourth de cades of their lire, by industry and applica -6( in, to achieve the fame and success which would be thereby secured to them (luring the latter periods of their lives. J. W. Yocum, of the Columbia Spy, .puke of the present of the Diagnothian society. He said it numbered nearly 1000 Mein hers on its rolls, and was in a very nourishing condition. It invariably laid low the finethean Soctety whenever they cantle inn competition before the public—es pecially when the ladies were the judges. Any contributions which One members prevent (211(.13 to intake to its treasury could to advantageously used. Hon. John Cessna responded to the last toast—" Franklin and Marshall College." As the hour was late, he would make what he had to say have a practical bearing.— After a brief reference to his connection with the Society, and to the active interest he had taken inn its well:ire, he asked how much money it wanted to raise now, and what it was wanted Mr. Mr. Zahner said they wanted to raise $3,000 for the purpose of re-renting their building, purchasing new carpets, and making au endowment for the benclit of the library. Mr. Cessna advised them to address circulars to their ex-members, reginisting a contribution trout them, which should be conditional upon the raising of the whole fund. Here tofore, be said, the members who attended the re-unions of the Society, were called upon again and again to contribute, while those wino did not attend escaped contrib uting. He would subscribe $l5O on condi tion that the whole fund of $3,000 was rais ed before he was again called upon. Mr. Hensel and Mr. Yocum jointly gave $150; llon. E. L. Acker, of Norristown, sub scribed 050; and some resident graduates pledged another WO. At nearly 1 A. M. the Society adjourned. COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES. At S A. 3t., on Thursday, the Faculty, Alum ni and students of Franklin and Marshall College assembled in front of the First Re formed Church in Orange street, where a procession was formed, and with the City Band to the front, marched to Fulton Hall, which was already well-tilled with a large audience. The Faculty, Alumni, and graduating class took their places in a semi-circle form upon the stage, when a prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. Nevin. Samuel M. Otto, of Walker, Pa., deliver ed the Salutatory in a clear voice and with graceful gestures. His subject was handled with much skill, the leading idea being that all labor was, or ought to be, religion, and all religion, labor. Milton Gerhard, of Lancaster,delivered a very tine oration on "Elocution," showing much knowledge of his subject. He stated that the orator was not now the great power that swayed the world, as was for merly the case. The art of printing bad taken from him his former glory and con ferred it upon the editor. Man was for merly all ear—he is now all eye. Instead of listening to the glorious periods of the orator, we now look upon the long columns of the newspaper. Elocution has become neglected, and now while It takes years of close study to fit mentor the position of an editor, the public speaker without even an apprenticeship mounts the stump and bel lows without criticism to all who may choose to listen. But the art of elocution is now of comparatively little use, and we have no systematic education of the voice; and yet the true orator will always have a place in the front rank among the votaries of Fame. The minister of the Gospel should especially regard the girt of speech as given by God as a means of salvation, and the lawyer should make elocution a part of his daily occupation. Mr. Albert F. Sheuck of Lan• aster was the next speaker. lie took for the theme of his subject "American Nationality" and opened by asking the question whether it was possible furs Community composed of such heterogeneous masses to possess any distinctive nationality. He argued that the true national character hail been de ve.oped in New England by the hardships and suffering's through which our ancestors had passed . • but in the West the great in flux of pushirig Germans and excitable Irish bad worked a great change in the general characteristics of the inhabitants. On the Plains and the Pacific coast there are classes possessing still different charac teristics. The war of the rebellion, how ever, had shown that all these different classes could coalesce, and it is not proba ble that any other nation on the face of the earth could have shown themselves so eap• at le of rising with the emergency and sur viving the treason of so large a proportion of its people. The reason of our success was that we knew how to command and how to obey. Instances were frequent where private soldiers stepped from the ranks to tako command of troops with which they were serving. And now we are experiencing the great civil teat of our national character in the manumission of 4,ooo,oo(taslaves,and the enfranchisement of thousands of those who attempted to destroy the government. History fur nishes no parallel of such successful mag nanimity, Mr. Shenck's oration was well received. J. Abram Gerhard, of Host, Pennsylva nia, discussed the subject of " Women in Politics," taking high ground against the strongininded, who have neither the re finement and delicacy of their own sex, nor the courage and determinedness of the other. tie denounced with much vehe mence the demoralizing: tendency of the woman's rights movements, and was re warded with a number of bouquets and a salvo of applause. He is a graceful and vigorous speaker. Mr. John Dotterer, of New Hanover, Pa. delivered the classical oration, which Was on the subject of the late treaty negotiated at Washington. lie argued strongly in fa vor of the adoption of the principles em bodied in it, anti also of international measures to settle . all matters dispute between nations, by arbitration rather than by the sword. The "Poetry of the Troubadours" was the subject 01 the Literary Oration deliver ed by H. Clay Geiger, of Lancaster. lie described the rise a the Troubadours in . - - Provence in the llh century, the beauty of their compositions and the power they exerted in love and war, and portrayed the hivh tended to their decline an extinction—principal among which was the want of religious education. The ora tion WO, distinctly, though rather too rap idly delivered. J armies W. Schrock, of lorristow 11, Pa., chose as his so bjeut "Franklin and Mar shall on the Defensive." After stating • that the College wino one of the oldest m the State, !laving long received support from the public, and particularly from the Re hirmed Church, he said its interests could be touch furthered iv a greater th gree of harmony among the Alumni, Wile' should take pride in supporting the institution which had supported them. lie eulogized the philosophy taught in the College, and the determination of the Trustees to throw its doors open for the education Mail. But the standard of its learniug should never be lowered, even if the number of its students was no greater , than the number of its faeulty; it will newer administer eiluvation in homeopathic doses. NVllea irbuisaties free hi all, our High Schools and academies will be regarded as prepai awry schools iu connection with the College, and it will at, longer be louhed Upon its it ~.ectitritlik or ari,Locratic Mr. I). Ralph Luckenbill, of Ilernville, Pa., delivered the Philosophical Oration, his subject being "Justice Man's Nobles) Vi Odd" The speaker drew a most beasti• ful picture of this cardinal virtue in man and depicted in glowing language the Mali ur rather the monster, devoid of it. 'its oration was one of the best of the class, ex• vellently written and eloquently delivered "Adversity the School of Genius" was the .subject of an oration by Jacob A. Gerhard, i; this city. The speaker took the ground that almost all men of genius have suffered intense grief and vain, and that these ad versities have developed the latent spirit within them. Ile instanced Dante, who in Iris boyhood's days fixed his affections on the beautiful Beatrice, whose early death he bewailed, not in tears, but clothed her in the attributes ;if divinity and placed upon her grave his own immortal bays.— 110 had other troubles that tended to de velop his genius—being driven front his home and country, and forsaken by Lis friends and by Mrtune. Byron's genius germinated in an early knowledge of his deformity—was quickened by the assaults and unjust criticisms of his enemies, and ripened in the ruin of his deserted heart and home. It was then that lie struck the lyre with a magic power, which enchanted the world. Mrs. Humans, who sang with the sweetness and sadness of the shells of ocean, wits shrouded in adversity by the unfortunate estrangement and separation from her husband. Without these dread ful lessons, learned in the school of adver sity, it is most improbable that those great geniuses would ever have stood prominent in the love and admiration of the world. The oration was well delivered and re ceived. "The Significance of the Late War in Europe"—au historical oration—by David N. Dittman, was thought by many to be the gem of the morning exercises. it was carelully written and correctly delivered. The speaker reviewed the cause and terrible consequences of the war, and believed that the world, and even France herself, would emerge from the struggle with increased greatness, if the result of the war is accept ed. The masses must be educated to rely. not on the power of military despotism, but upon the intelliirence and virtue el the pen pie. Add to the French spirit of independ ence the power of thought and education, Zuld you have the ele nents with which to make a greater people than has ever exist ed ; while the adoption of some of (the re fused French mantic; s and customs by the Germans would greatly help them. Mr. John C. Bowman, of Chambersburg, Pa., delivered a brief and graceful oration on " Bubbles," in which he tried to im press upon r ervoUS and sensitive old con servatives the fact that there is no danger of the immediate dissolution of nature,sim ply because silly belles will persist in wear ing huge chignons and horrible looking poinpadours,while flips delight in swallow tail coats, and wait their illoastaches en as to mak o them grow upwards it stead of downwards. Ile assured the old fogies, that these annoyances, like :lecturers on woman's rights and capital pa•lishrneut, were mere bubbles, floating on the sr-la-e, of the stream of society, and would in due course either burst or p.ss harmlessly away and be followed by quack doctors, quack lawyers, quack preachers, and quack creeds. .Modern civilization and education Inds already pricked many of these bubbles and is competent to remove) them all, in .ue course of time. Alter music, by the Orchestra, the, Moili ng session of the Commencement terinilia ed, and the aildienco was dismissed with benediction. The afternoon session was commenced by tl r. Will ism C. ttichaelfer, of I: IajdCWII, was awarded the honer of the Franklin Oration. 11 is subject was "The Inspiratiou of Genius." lie said that Originality, Genius and thspiration go hand-m-hand. It is the province of ge nius to reveal to man what is unknown, and to: tleveltopi what lies hidden and der 11➢111t in the hollain WWI. This devel opment and awakening of the soul or spirit can be done only by spirit. It can thus by training be developed as far as the teacher's mind is developed. But this is very limited. llonce to learn what is as yet unknown it must receive its light from an other source, and this is the eternal Logas. The way of this illumination is of course a mystery, It must be remembered, how ever, that its light comes front above, from something higher than itself. 11 is perora tion was tine. The I%larshall Oration was delivered by Mr. John F. DeLong, of Bowers, Pa., who chose for his subject "The Sacrament of the Hod." He set out by stating that of all created things the will alone is free. All other created things obey a law they can neither accept or reject. The will must be disciplined to comprehend the necessity of the law, and to obey the law from free choice. Without law tho will is false and falls into bondage and sin. To prevent this the general moral idea which has been refused, must be forced upon the will contrary to his own selfish decision. The symbol of this Is the rod. The disci cipline commences in the family, and ends finally in the Holy Catholic Church. Submission to the law iedemanded because it is the law. Such obedience is not blind and slavish, but is born of love, and be comes a free and conscientious perform auce of the law. Charles E. Gast, Esq. of this city of the class of 1688, delivered the Master Oration, his subject being "The fikepticism of the 18th Century." He charged that the infidel ity of that age was a reaction ever against:the religious agonisin of former ages. The 18th century was prodigal of great men, whose apoatacy from religion was the result of an attempt to shackle the mind. In proportion as private judgment is suppressed, true be lief and faith are suppressed. A confession of belief may be extorted through fear, but as soon as that is removed infidelity re sults. If the faith of the world in Christi anity ever again becomes shipwrecked, it will result from the same spiritual despot ism which made the 18th century infidel. Mr. Gast's oration was eloquently deliver ed, and his denunciation of all attempts to repress the free action of the mind by any despotism exercised over thought was very bitter. The Valedictory was awarded to Mr. W. T. Linn Kieffer, of Carlisle, Pa., and his address fully justified the distinction which had been conferred upon him ; although, as he said, the field of the valedictorian had been so frequently and so thoroughly gleaned that there was but little-new to gather. In appropriate and feeling terms, and in the name of the class, he bade fare well to his auditors, thanking them for their presence and frequent tokens of ap plause; to the citizens of Lancaster, with whom they have formed such Intimate rie qUalntance, whose doors were over thrown open to them and the hand of friendship ever extended ; to the ladies for the man ifestation of their favor during their Col lege life; to the Janitor of the College who had so often rang the bell that eAlled them to their studies; to his fellow-students of the Junior classes, who bad pressed in and crowded the graduates out; to the Alumni, among whom the class would soon be numbered : to the Board of .Trustena, who had done so much for them, and who were capable of still greater efforts ; to the Fac ulty ofithe College with whom they had so long lived and studied; to the venerable and beloved President of the Institution, Dr. Nevin, their literary father, who had lifted them from darkness into light ; and to the graduates, who were now about sep arating. and with some of whom, perhaps, he would never meet ugain. The Valedic tory atammiled in many brilliant and feel ing pin sages, and was delivered with toneh ease and grace, though the Speaker's voice was scarcely strong enough to be heard in all parts of the Dr. Nevin, in the name of the Trustees of the College, and by authority of the Com monwealth, then presented diplomas, con ferring the degree of Bachelor or Ai is en the following gentlemen comprising the graduating class : John C. Bowman, Chamliersborg„ Pa.; John F. De Long, Bowers, Pa.; David N. Dittmar, Pattonville, Pa. ; John Dotterer, New Hanover, H. Cay Geiger, Lan caster, Pa. ; Jacob A.

I'll PPA- PSI SY Si POST UM. The Commencement Exercises of the College were concluded on Thursday; the last, though by no means least feature— being the symposium of the Eta Chapter of the Phi Psi Fraternity. These fraternity exercises, though generally denounced and ridiculed by College Faculties and bigoted students, :have in theta much worthy of our warmest admiration and most heartfelt encouragement. A large num her of noble advocates of the Interests of Phi-Psi were present from other Colleges,- the Gamma, Epsilon, 'Zeta and Theta Chapters, being represented by large delegations, making in all a 'band of some fifty-two. At nine o'clock the Chapter convened and transact ed such business which of course was se cret. At ten the Literary exercises com menced in the hall of the Eta, which throughout were highly interesting. The programme consisted of an Oration ta m s the Chapter, by 11. C. Swentoel, Class of '72," giving in pleasing style a cordial welcome to allpresent. Next was a Chap ter Poem, by D. R. Luekenbill, Class of •"71," which was short and sweet, breath ing tortli in exalted strains the deco and undying love of Phi-Psi. The Alumni Oration, by Dr. .1. O. Kllif.lo, of Norris town, were elegant, giving a glowing de scription of the high and sacred principles of the circler. The Alumni loam, by Prof. J. H. K ershner, of Id oreersbn rg, Pa., • showed that his muses favor even matho matieians, and bid thew hold sweet com mune with things too fair for earth. The last oration was to be by D. N. Dittmar, but on account of the lerre given by Dr. Nevin, he was obliged to be absent that part ‘,r the evening. After these exercises the Fraternity, headed by the City Cornet Band, started from their Hall up North queen to Chestnut, Chestnut to Duke, 'who to King, and thence to the Leopard I iotel, where a title l'Opt:§t awaited their commands. Full justice was dune to the mane good things on the table. The i lig toasts were then responded to:— " Our Fraternity," by Charles McLaugh lin, Esq., of Carlisle, Pa. "The Grand Chapter—the crown of the past, the light of the present, the anchor (fl' the future,"— by W. It. Woodward, Washington, D. C. "The U. A. C.—the Sun of our Constella thm,"—by 11. J. Beaty, Esq., Harrisburg, Pa. "Our College Days,—may their mem ories brighten in the !Inure as they recede the past,—by S. H. Bridenbaugh, Class of '•'72." "Our Alma Maters,—may wo as true children honor them,—by S. B. Rath von, Lancaster, Pa. " The Professions," by L. I'. Rosen wilier, Jr., Esq., Lancaster, Pa. "The T.ady Friends of Phi-Psi," by Jacob A. Gerhard, Class of "'71." " Bach elors and Benediets," by A. C. Reinoehl, Esq., Lancaster, Pa. This part of the ex ercises sects very interesting, and called forth peals of applause and much hearty laughing. There were no drinks—that is liquor of any kind—on the table or in the rOOlll, and every thing was conducted ill a strictly moral way. This was in truth a gala time for Phi-Psi, and long will be re membered by all who attended. It draws closer the bonds which ties them to their mystic and sacred pledge. And long after College days aro forgotten, and College thoughts buried in oblivion, the recollec tions of fraternity will linger in tho hearts and cluster round the pathway of Phi-Kap pa-Psi. They adjourned at a very respect able hour all hearty and hale. AMERICAN CITIZENSIIIP.—The address of the lion. 13. Markley Boyer, on the above subject, delivered Tuesday evening, in Fulton Hall before the Literary Societies of Franklin and Miirsliall College, was a ' literary production of unusual excellence and was delivered with the grace and finish peculiar to the accomplished orator. It was listened to throughout with marked attention, accompanied by frequent bursts or hearty applause. These who heard it, wo aro sure, left the hall with higher and more correct conceptions of the duties, privileges and responsibilties of an American citizen than they before entertain ed. The address abounded in pregnant sent ences full of practical political wisdom, and it was adorned with many flowers of rhet oric clothed in the choicest language. It was far above the average of such prochu•- tions, and added to the reputation which the author has won as 0110 of our most accomplished public speaker. We under stand that Mr. Boyer will be requested to allow his address to be published in pamphlet form, and we hope he may con sent to do so. It is abundantly worthy of preservation. No mere abstract of the speech would do justice to the distinguished author, and therefore we will attempt mine A Dk:NERvED CON PLI>I ENT.—Amidst the many evidences of the healthful conditim of Franklin and Marshall College, as mani Posted in the late Commencement Exercise of this institution, there comes to us fron the reports of a sister institution the news that the degree of Doctor of Divinity has been conferred upon the Rev. Theo. Ap mei, of our College. In view of the too oftun injudicious conferring of academic degrees, it is satisfactory to recognize such a due appreciation of ability and worth, and we venture to say that seldom has the Uni versity of Pennsylvania bestowed like honors On one more deserving or Sllllll tribute to scholarly attainments and Chris tian virtues. Dr. Appel was born at R:lo ton, Pa., of a family which hits sent hirtl several distinguished sons to labor in thi cause of Christian education. lie was pre pared Mr college by Rev. Dr. Vandover under whose care many of after distinct ioi in the political and religion, world laid the foundation of their future curves, lie graduated at Marshall College in IS-12, with istinguished honors, in a (Aria of unusual ability, numbering among i 4 member, Hon.

Itauch,Scha and Nevin, and at the feet uf these use imbibed his positive Christian theologici and philosophical views. For a number years he performed pakoral duties i Franklin county, Pa., and Maryland, ui til in ISSI, he was elected Professor of Nlathematics and Mechanical Philosophy in Marshall College, in which position he has since continued at and after the ro anoval of this institution to Lancaster. Ile was one of the founders of the Mercers burg Review, and for a number of years, after the withdrawal of Dr. Nevin from the editorial chair, was managing editor of the same, and has ever since been au active contributor. For the past two years he has written extensively on the subject of " Cosmogony or the Nebular Theory of Creation," his exhaustive treatment of this profound subject having excited great interest among scientists and theologians, as combining scientific re research with Christian faith. His die position to be at the some time prac tical, has rendered him of great service in behalf of Franklin and Marshall, en abling him while setting forth its peculiar spirit, to meet the true necessities of the institution for its successful development. He has been actively engaged in the pro motion of the late endowment scheme for the purpose of making the College free. Dr. Appel is well known to most of our citizens as a Christian gentleman, and is no less esteemed for his ripe scholarship than for his genial mammas, his sound theolog ical views, and his worth as an estimable citizen. His many warm friends through- Out the church and the country generally will be glad to hear of the honor con forre upon one who has been of such active ser vice in the (111.180 of education and the church of Christ. NEW PATENT.—Curtis Miller, assignor to himself and to J. R. Royer, Lincoln, P. 0, has just received letters patent, dated June 28th, 1871, for a Reaper binding car, to be attached to harvesting machines.

This is as it should ho. When parents can be per suaded that to take a pupil from a lower u a higher department, before such scholar Ines acquired the necessary training en titling him to advancement, will result in an injury rather than in a benefit, the duties thrown on directors and teachers will not only he made much more pleasant but the cause of education greatly benefited. Inn conclusion, let us all remember that the confidence of the people, whose money in this, as in war, furnishes the sinews, can only be retained by an honest and practical management of the Public Schools in whose welfare the interests of every one are so intimately blended; a system scone what peculiar in its organization, may still advance much higher than it now is, and thereby keep pace with the march of im provement. WILLIAM R. WILSON, Chairman Superintending Committee. The graduating classes made a very line appearance, and the essays read by the girls and addresses spoken by the boys were without exception well composed and well delivered, reflecting credit alike on teachers and pupils. In the crowded state of our columns, incident to the commence went exercises of the College and the High Schools, it is impracticable to publish even a synopsis of the addresses and essays, while a criticism of the relative merits of the graduates, where all did so well, would seem invidious. Let it suffice to say that at no former High School Commencement have the graduates evinced a higher de gree of educational acquirements. The essay prepared by Miss Annie E. McCullon was read by Dr. Levergood, at the request of the author, whose little sister died a few days ago. After a neat and appropriate address by Won. P. Winton, Esq., President of the Board of Directors, he presented each of the gradnates with a diploma. The Band then played a polka, and the audience was dismissed with a benediction by Rev. B. C. Suesserott. gNotWithatanding the crowded condition of the Hall, the utmost good order pre vailed during the entire session of four hours, and there seemed to be but one opinion in regard to the high merit of the graduates. A pleasing incident connected with the exercises was the presentation of a very beautiful bouquet to W. P. Brinton, Esq. President of the Board, by one of the liuly graduates. The compliment took the learned President entirely by runprlsci, but ha received it with becoming grace and SHERIFF'S SA I.E..4.—The following prop• erties wore sold by the Sheriff nu Satur layafternoon: A house 11111 i lot of ground knitting Li feet on West King street, Lime moor, sub jeot to dower's right of way and first mort gages amounting' to $2,0•28 2a, was sold as the property of Peter 11.
