The Anniversary Exercises at Waynesburg College. All the exercises at the College at the cloSe of the present session have been char acteaized by a uniform success. Their-nu-m ber and variety forbid our giving them more than a passing notice, although their merits would demand much more. The public ex ercises properly began on Sabbath evening, the 18th inst., with the Baccalaureate Ser mon of President Miller, though several days of the preceeding week had been occupied in the private examination of classes, princi pally in the male department, 'all of which - creditably acquitted themselves . The sermon, like all of the President's oratical efforts, was replete with sound login and wholesome advice. lie placed the standard of moral conduct on an elevated plane,—quite elevated indeed, for these corrupt and selfish times. "Do right al ways, and leave the consequences with God." His standard of patriotism was no less high; a patriotism above party, which knows "no North, no South, no East, no 'West, but the whole country." Hon. W. T. Willey, of West Virginia, de livered the annual address to the literary societies on Monday evening. The audience was quite large, and listened with profound attention ahroughout the whole address.— His subject, in brief, was CHRISTIANITY, and Its effects on nations. Never, indeed, was the truth that "righteousness exalteth a na tion, but sin is a reproach to any people," more clearly demonstrated than in his ad dress. It was thought so able that a com mittee was appointed from the Societies to procure it for publication. On Tuesday the public examination in the Female Department came off, the classes acquitting themselves with honor: the com mencement exercises in the Ladies Depart ment in the evening were, perhaps, as fine as any ever known at this institution. The first essay, read by Miss Han. C. Day, sub ject, "Columbia," touched chords in the heart of every listener, who had the least senslbtlity in his nature. Her elocution was almost faultless, which united with her ease and dignity of manner, made her reading very impressive. Miss Jennie Webb follow ed subjee, "Night Thoughts ;" which was very prettily written, and pretty well read, though not so well as if she had been self possessed all the time. Next Miss Emma Downey entertained the audience with a very clear and analytical essay on the "Clouds." After this followed the Valedic tory by Miss Jennie Woods, .which was truly a fine affair and well delivered. The exer cises of the evening were enlivened by vo cal and instrumental music from Miss Bat ler's pupils and others. . The Alumni Association met on Wedues day, at 2 o'clock, P. M., and officers, speak ers and essayists elected for the ensuing year. The following persons were chosen to fill positions: W. E. Gapen, Esq., Presi dent, Prof. M. E. Garrison, Secretary ; Capt. J. B. Donley, Orator; Miss Sulia Bar clay, EsSayist. The "commencement" in the CAlege be gan at 7 o'clock, P. M. The graduating class although small, did as much honor to their instruetors, the institution and them elves, as many larger classes have done here tofore. J. Jackson Purman delivered the first— oration, subject, " Elements of oar National Character." The audience seemed quite well pleased with his effort manifest ing their approval more than once by their applause. P. Albert Knox, of Carmichaels, followed: entertaining the audience with one of the finest Valedictory Orations to which it has ever been our privilege to listen.— The honorary degrees were now conferred, Messrs. G. N. Mattox, J. Jackson Purinan, and P. A. Knox, receiving the degree of Bachelor of Arts; and Messrs. W. S. Van cleve, John Cowan, and 11. G. Anderson, (graduates of three years standing,) the degree of Master of Arts. This was follow ed by an address to the Alumni, by Rev. H. G. Anderson, abounding in good sense.— The whole of the exercises of the evening were interspersed by music from Captain Stoy's orchestral band. Remembering the Printer.

On Friday last, says the Genius o Liberty, the sad announcement was made to the people of this place, that Gen. Joshua B. Howell had been accidentally killed by his horse on the 14th inst., in front of Pe i tersburg, Va. Gen. Howell has been long and favorably known to the people of this county. In his profession he stood deserved ly high. As a citizen he was very highly es teemed, and his charities and gentlemanly deportment will long be cherished in the minds of the people. In 1861 he was commissioned as Colonel inidiatheirized to raise the 85th Pennsyl vania Regiment, and in November, 1861, left this place with one of the finest regi ments that ever entered the service. The gallantry of Gen. Howell has been displayed upon many a Woody battle field, and he dis tinguished himself as a brave soldier upon every occasion that was affirded. We are at present .without particulars in regard to this melancholy event, but shall hereafter refer to it more tally, The follow ing is furnished by a correspondent of the N. Y. Herald : "It appears that shortly after dinner the General proposed to mount his horse and ride to a point somewhat distant from his quarter. Ha had only succeeded in gaining his position on his horse, which was exceed ingly uneasy on the bit, when, the General unfortunately grasped the wrong rein, the horse suddenly careered and fell backwaids, falling when,' on the person of the deceased. His orderly at once rushed to the General's rescue, and with much exertion got his pros trate form from beneath the vicious animal . Being borne to his quarters he was found to he insensible, and did pot rally to the last. lle died in the evening, and his embalmed body is now on its way to his home in Uniontown. Gtn. Howell entered the ser vice as Colonel of the 85th Pennsylvania Regiment, and participated in nearly all the great battles of the campaign. His regiment formed part of Gen. Casey's division pre vious to the battle of Fair Oaks, and so well did he stand, even then,. in the opinion of liis superior officers, that though but recent ly taken from civil life, he was entrusted with the provisional command of a brigade. He was about sixty years of age, and previous to his entering the army followed the law as a profession. He was a splendid looking man, while a gentleman of more courteous or winning manners we have rare ly met with. In his death the army loses a valuable officer, and one whose place can not be easily tilled. The Cost of Boring an Oil Well in Venango.

Sheridan learning their move ments ordered the whole command to break camp, and prepare to march.— Accordingly at three o'clock on Mon day the tents were al struck. The dif ferent divisions were alt under arms and prepared to move at a moment's notice. About 9 o'clock orders were received from Sheridan for the 6th and 19th corps to be ready to start at three o clock for the army of West Virginia under Crook. The following morning shortly after 5 o'clock Wilson's division of Cavalry crossed the Opequan at the l3erryville and Winchester pike, mov ing his command rapidly along the road, driving in the enemy's skirmish line, he gallantly charged their field works with the first brigade, and carri ed them at the point of the sabre, cap turing thirty prisoners. In this charge Colonel Branton of the 18th Pennsylva nia cavalry was wounded within a few teet of the, enemy's works whilst gal lantly leading his regiment. These field-works were constructed by the rebels to guard the ford at the Opequan and prevent a passage at that point. Our cavalry having secured a sate passage for the infantry, the 16th Corps was moved across the Opequan and along the pike toward Winchester, leaving its train on the opposite side of th stream, at a point about 1, miles distant from the ford where it formed a line of battle and threw out a strong skirmish line. At the same time the ar tillery opened on the wo , ds into which the enemy's infantry had retreated, and kept up an incessant cannonade. The enemy replied briskly with parts of two batteries. $2,100 00 150 00 50 00 150 000 300 00 i There was a delay of at least two hours, caused by the non-arrival of the 18th Corps, who, througli misconcep tion of orders, had thiled to come up at the proper time. Gen. Sheridan having learned on Fri ; day that the main portion f Early's forces were eneampA in the vicinity of Bunker Hill and Stephenson depot, re solved to mass his forces on the Win -1 chester and Berryville pike, and by a rapid movement hurl them on Early's (rear. There is no doubt but the enemy were completely surprised and out-man wavered by Sheridan's march to the ap pointed place of rendezvous. A portion of our cavalry under Gens (Torbett and Averill, kept up a strong picket line along the Opequan, and by a demonstration in force at Burns' Ford, kept a large portion of the enemy at that part of the field, which was nearly twelve miles distant from the point • where it was intended our infantry should operate and strike a blow which should result in the signal defeat of Early's army. The delay in the arrival of the 19th corps enabled Early to move Gordon's division at double quick from Bunker Hill some ten miles, and bring it up in time to form in line of battle with Breck mridge's raiders and Hood's command, who had already arrived, and were formed in a belt of wooded thicket skirt ing Berryville and Winchester. As soon as the 19th corps arrived it was formed in four lines of battle, about three hundred yards apart, on the right of the 6th, and everything beino , in radmess, the advance was sounded at about twelve o'clock, and the different lines moved forward. The 2d corps advanced in splendid style—as though marching at a review or on parade. The first line had not advanced more than two hundred yards before it be came engaged with the enemy, who were posted in line about six him died yards distant. At the same time our :irtillery opened a furious cannonade, throwing shells and solid shot into the opposite woods, where the enemy could be distinctly seen moving up reinforce meats. 150 00 570 00 350 00 300 00 400 000 1,350 00 37 50 20 00 5 00 15 00 $6,057 50 Our different lines of battle continued to advance steadily, until within nearly two hundred yards of the enemy's line, when the rebels opened a furious can nonade, with grape and cannister, from two batterries which they had previous ly kept secreted, and which ploughed through our advancing lines, mowing down large numbers of our men. The first line was obliged to give way under so murderous a fire, and in re treating behind the second line threw it into momentary confusion, and it al -80 was obliged to fall back behind the third line which had in the meantime been ordered to lie down, in order to avoid as much as possible the effects of the withering fire which the enemy's batteries were directing against our 24 yawing line.

Full Particulars of the Bottle BALTIMORE, September 20-10 r. The following is the American's special of the great battle in ;the Shenandoah - V alley : HEADQuAtinuts MIDDLE DI VISION, Winchester September 19, 9 e. i‘t.—General Sheridan's army has this day fought one of the most successful and decisive battles of the war. Victo ry has again crowned our banner, and the rebel army has been defeated and uttwly routed, with the loss of at least 3,000 killed and wounded, including 7 Generals—namely, Rhodes, Wheat on, Bradley T. Johnson, Gordon, York and Godman, the two first of whom were killed, and the others badly wound ed, and we have captured 2,500 Prison ers. nine battle flags, representing nine different regiments and organizations, five pieces of artillery, with caissons. On Sunday morning, Early sent Gor don's division of rebel infantry from Bunker hill where it had been station ed for tile past tew days, to drive Aye rill from Ma:-tHsburg, and destroy a idge on the I>ahimore and Ohio rail road-across the Opequau, whieh thi.v erronoons,ly thought trul lw;:n rep nirj. They occupi e d I.artinsburg tlu• a short time, without doing any damage to the railroad, and were eventually driven by Ayerill as fin. as Darksville. lenee these batteries of the enemy which had caused us so much annoyance, and our line was reformed and again order ed forward, regaining the advanced po sition they had held wl'en they were obliged to fall back. But success was not gained without an obstinate resis tance on the part of the enemy. General Sheridan had previously rid den about the lines and was received everywhere by the men with the greatest enthusiasm—they advanced. It was the terrible determination to do so or die in the attempt. Having re gained the advanced position, which we bad previously occupied, the differ ent lines of battle were ordered to lie down and wait the arrival of General Crooks' corps, which was held in re serve on the eastern side of the Opequ- an. They were ordered up to take po sition on the extreme right of our line, and in order to counteract a movement on the p:u•t of the enemy, who were massing troops on their left flank with a view of turning our right. About 3 o'clock General Crook form ed on the right of the 19th corps—his first division on the extreme right of our line, and his second division iu the rear and supporting a ..Uvision of the 19th corps. General Crook having formed his men, rode along the line, and was received with the most voeifet ous cheering, the men promising to "go in," and wipe out Winchester. Gen. Torhet with Merritt's and Av erill's division of cavalry having crossed th e Op, (plan about 9 olclouk at Burnes' and Kin:x's I.rds bad been lard at work ail day tilditing considerable bodies of the enemy's int.mtry and cavalry, and having been successful, instead o f driv ing before them now arrived on our ex treme right and was prepared to take liart in the final struggle which secured us the victory. General Sheridan rode out to where General Torbett was stationed, and af ter a consultation with him as to the part the cavalry were to take, ordered a final charge, which was nude with an impetuosity which nothing could resist. Our line, extending nearly three miles in length, advanced with cheers and yells, which could be distinctly heard Jar above the noise of artillery and mus ketry, which, for its impetuosity, has seldom been exceeded in any battle of this war. Our men had determined to win the day and nerved themselves ac cordingly for the coining struggle, and as our lines advanced closer and closer to those of the enemy the battle became more and more fierce, and the slaughter now was awfill ; at every discharge men could be distinctly seen dropping all around, and the two contending lines at some places could not have been over two hundred yards apart. Just at this critical period, above the roar of artillery, musketry and fierce yells of contending armies, could be dis tinctly heard, several 'miles Offthe car alry bugle, sounding the Charge which was the death-knell to their army.— There could be seat the gallant Custer and Merritt, each with a headquarters flag in hand, advancing gallantly, lead ing the chare:e, whicli; in connection with the desperate courage of our in fantry, secured us the victory. The cumuli n , . of Early's command were forced to give Way before our cav alry, who with sabre in hand, rode them down, cutting them right, and left, cap turing seven hundred and twenty-one privates and non-eonuni,tsioned officers, with nine battle flags and two guns. The broken and demoralized divisions composing Early's command now fled in confusion, throwing away everything which could in any way impede their flight, and with their arms some made for the heights btyond Winchester, but they were soon dislodged by Ave rill, and forced to beat a hasty and ig nominuous retreat up the Valley, where such of Early's command as are lett him are now scattered. Our victory is a glorious one, and well aculated to fill the heart of every loyal , man with joy. Among the killed and wounded are Col. E Bright, 12th Ohio, killed ; Capt. Wright, killed ; Capt. McEuston, 2d United States cavalry, Lieut. Jack son, Ist Michigan cavalry, arm shot off; Lieutenents Matthias and John Allen, Ist Michigan cavalry, killed. The Mi chigan brigade of Costar's command claims the honor of killing General Rhodes when they charged his divis ion.
