The lauds are highly cultivated, the farmers pros. perous, climate salubriousand water nn re". ' Since we first visited this College many wonderful improve mcnts have taken place in and around Trinity. The landscape is beautiful, residences handsome, the fields are now waving with the golden grain the meadows are clothed with a lovely mantle of clover and herds grass, aud everything beautiful greets the eye on every haud. Here I spent my school days and myriads of happy recollections crowd our memory the veil of the past is lifted and we again live over the happy by goues 'School days" are taismantc words which dispel all gloom and bring forth bright cheerful thoughts and pleas ant memories of the by eones. These magnetic words seem to electrify and enthuse us, for they are suggestive of the bright moments spent here "long ago." They re-call the familiar faces, the kind greetings over whose memo ry we love to linger. Yesterday, (Wednesday,) has al ways been regarded as one of the big days, as it is the day for the delivery of the Annual Address and Sermon. A large crowd assembled in the Chap el earl v in the mornins to hear the Annual Sermon by Rev. Dr. A. O. Haygood of Ga.

That this has been an anomalous spring as regards meteorological con ditions none will doubt, and many had about concluded that the year 1883, in this particular, would be analogous to that of 1216, in which year, it is said, no actual summer occurred. But some sections suffered less by the ano malous weather thm others.
