Tho millstones of memory tliiKter ing around the National Capitol are rich with historic lore, and relrenh inff to the touriHts from every land and ( lit ne. Stand with mo for a moment at the Scott Statue on the heichtd of the National Soldier's Home, to the north of WnnhinRton, tin the tdnnt ing Lhiuhh of evening irradiate the cene. Far to the right and west the rolling hilln of the Old Dominion lift their pine clad orentx over the troubled water" of the upper Toto niac; and on a nearer view the tower and turretH of tho Jcmiit Luivermty thine over George town Heights like Alpine Heutineln guarding the vale below. Tho forest trees of Oak Hill and Arlington cemeterien nod thoir em erald heads to tho beholder, while the winds of nature sing a mournful requiem over tho citizens and hoI diors who have gone into camp on tho upland Mopes of Omnipotence. Oak Hill contains the dust of many illustrious meu. C'has. Gover nor, Secretary of tho Treasury and Chief Justice of the United States slept there until removed to Cincin oatti. Stanton the Great war Secre tary and iron arm of tho rebellion rests under a tall granite shaft that is not more firm or compact than the heroic character it memorializes. General Reno who fell at South Mountain finds peace beneath a broken marble column. Captain It. U. Morris, of Monitor, Merrimac, and Cumberland memory, mingles here with Mot.herF.srtb, and aslong as tho waU, 0f wrMr ny t i. shall tumble t;r Vnit caps to sea his heroic ai f patriotic conduai will bo cherished by a gratelul country ! Lorenzo Dow, tho great apostle of temperanco and revival religion is covered with a sandstone slab, grown over with lichens and creeping grapes. Howard Payne, author of Home Sweet Home, has a monument aud marble bust to glorify his dust in death, while in lifo he was a poor forlorn wanderer, often without home, food or shelter ; another Diogenes: When I am dead, let no vain pimp (ll-.pl.iy A outface ttorruw oVr my pulseless (,,y, Hut all the dear old friends I loved In life May hheil a tear, console my child mid wile. When I am dead, some shrc for self renown May uru my ailie In IiIh native loan. And Hive when I am cold and lost und dead, A marhle shaft where once I needed Itread. James G. Blaine, that erstwhile tilled the eye of a nation, bleeps beneath tho giant oaks of this ceme tery, by tho side of his son and daughter, with grave unmarked and memory fading into the twilight of oblivion. Many great and good soldiers sleep their last sleep on Arlington Heights, that we see in tho glimmer ing distance. The dashing Sheri dan ; gallant Crook, the Indian fight er ; General Meigs, the faithful Quartermaster; General Hunt, Chief of artillery ; Belknap, Secretary of War; Hazen, Sturgis, Baxter, Crane, Ayers, and the illustrious Admiral Porter, with a gallant crew of his naval subordinates, rest under the shade of those towering trees. Lengthen your view from tho Sol dies' Home, and we behold fifteen miles away the hill-tops of Mount Vernon looming up in fading hori zon, and nearer the walls of Fort Washington shining in tho distance ; the spires and smoke of Alexandria rising over the ancient town where Jackson shot Colonel Klsworth in the hotel, and where Brownel sent a bullet tin-ouch tho heart of tho rash Virginian, who defied a whole Gov ernment and fiung his rebel Hag to that May morning breeze. Let the eye linger along the bunks of tho pellucid Potomac, aud you boo a long dark lino spanning its Hashing waters, aud perhaps, a rapid railroad train rumbling over tLc crumbling timbers of the historic Long Bridge Could this bridge talk what a Btory it could tell of the hopes and fears of those beaten Union soldiers who crossed its stag gering piers in July, 18(51, while the echo of cannon from Bull Run rang in their ears. . Look at the swelling dome of the white Capitol ; the great monumen tal marble pile, erected to tho memo ry of the Father of his Country, and lifting its head 555 feet into the azure sky; and the State, War and Navy Department building, are among the chief landmarks that meet the vision. Then behold the great green squares, parks, circles, angles, ana the long shaded, avenues sweeping away to the horizon, and the travel er has some idea of the possibilities of Washignton a thousand years hence, when the bright flag of the Great Republic shall light up the pathway of mankind and guarantee universal suffrage and home rule to the whole world.

Suffice it to say, he is the man to please the boys and girls Let them come and enjoy an eve ning of rare yet healthy fun. Dr. Levin I. Handy is an inde pendent ttnnker. lie nas the grace and skill and wit and eloquence needed to delight an audience. Hi cloquece comes not from carcfu declamation i it comes from a mind and heart on fire with tho theme, His lecture, "The Road to Victory, is a masterpiec and is delivered by a witty, skillful natural born orator. ur. uyron u.lvmg is the prince of entertainers. Ho is a scholar. author, actor, teacher and incom parable orator combined a glorious combination meetiug in an accom plished and lovablo gentleman. few months ago he carried by storms of applause a select audience in Se linsgrove. Corporal Thomas Kay known to his auditors as the "Irrepressible Tom" is full of originality and in vcutivo genius, possessing a sweet voice and being richly endowed with the powers of mimicry he is enabled to perform all the functions of royal entertainer and will most as suredly drive away tho cares nm' blues of those who come in his pres ence. in conclusion let us show our teachers that we intend by our pres ence at the Institute to rejoice with them in their season of pleasure and lend our aid to theirs in making the joy the more complete and raise tho statue of our Institute to a still higl er aiuinuo oi success, uoiuc one, come all.
