Exactly one half of itsstudents during the past year have paid no tuition, amongst who there are fifteen ministers' sons, besides nineteen candidates for the nioistry. Having referred to the condition of the finances as healthful, we may properly par ticularize, and state that there has leen both an increase of income and a decrease of debt during the past year, and that the general result is that our assets are loth enlarged in their bulk and improved in their character. This reflects honor on the skill and faithful ness of our Treasurer and our finance com mittee. ' The collections from interest and bank dividends are this year $3,020.74 more than they were last year. The increase in this particular is due, in part, to the collection of overdue coupons, lclohging to previous years. The debtsof the college are this year $512 less than they were last year. The in come which is reasonably counter! on, and expecteJ for the year to come, exceeds our anticipated expenses. The whole debt red ing upon the college is only $1,812.00. and we think there is good reason to hope it will all la: lifted in the course of the next two years. Ami then there is an increase of available assets to the amount of $2,360.00. These stand now at the figure of $88,500 00, while the real estate is estimated to be worth not less than the sum of $150,0w0.

The Commencement exercises at David son College are always well attended, but last week the? attendance was unusually large. Beginning on Monday with the ar-. rival of the Executive committee, the crowd swelled until Thursday, when itjs estima ted that fully two thousand visitors were on the ground. The public exercises opened wilhja learned and interesting address on Wednesdiy morning, by Rev. Wm. E. Boggs, D. Di of Atlanta Ga. The learned speaker discussed the supposed an:aifnism between Chr.fttiai.ity and the teachings of Science, conclusively showing that the Bible rightly interpreted was in perlect accord with true s;ience. j.n tne anernoon tne nev. m. o. Lacy f delivered an interesting, spicy and louchinir address before the Alumni associa tion, in which he showed the influence of Davidson College upon the country through her alumni. Sketches were given of a number-who have graced the highest positions of honor and trust,'or who fell on the battle field during the late war. Few of the grad- j uates-present ever knew before how long was the roll of the distinguished sons of their beloved Alma Mater. Wednesday evening was occupied by the representatives of the Literary Societies. Six addresses were delivered, and to .the most finished oration of the six was -to be awarded the -KovV!o -Medal tor uratorv. r cw wereois- appotnted snd many delighted when on Thursday that prize was awarded to Herbert Wt Beall, of Lenoir, N. C. O But Thursday is the great day at David son College, and between twelve and fifteen hundred eop!e crowded into the capacion 'Chambers Hall" to hear wh.it the thirteen graduates had to say. Of these thirteen five had won the first "distinction in scholar ship, that is, had scored an average of over ninrty for the four years course, when one hundred indicated perfection. They were the following: J. P. Paisly, of Guilford N. C, Valedictory; P. M.v Brown", of Charlotte, C Or? Salutatory ; J. A. Gilmer, of'Greens I oro, N. . Uosoph ic Oration ; J ames Ilorafi of Salisbury, and Thomas G. Harie of New Orleans, La. It -would lie difficult to distinguish when so many displayed ex cellence both in matter-aof manner. Be sides ithe five first honor men, whose public appearance justified the distinction they had received, I may mention that Richmond Harding, of Charlotte, N. C.. delivered in a graceful and tellinir manner, a well conceiv ed and critical address on "King Lear," ami that James Horah of Salisbury oneof the tive-jvas 4istened to with deep attention, whilehe discussed in a clear, sensible, and practical manner, the merits of "The Par ty and the Term System "r !

Second Resolved that this deplorable condition of the administration of our national government is largely due to the eclectiou to office and contiuuance therein of corrupt, dishonest aud venal men. Third Resolved that it is useless aud hypocritical for any political party to de clare for reform in its.platforms, papers and public, addresses while it insists ou ret urn iiii; to high official place and power men who have been notoriously connec ted with the very schemes of fraud which render reform necessary and urgent ; that to send those to enact reform who themselves need reforming to make them honest is worse, than fettiug the blind to watch the blind. Fourth Resolved that there is no man to-day officially connected with the ad ministration of our national government against whom are justly preferred more and graver charges of corruption than are publicly made and abundantly sus tained against James A. Garfield; the present representative of this congress ional "district and the nominee of the Republican convention for re-election. Fifth Resolved that since h hist en tered Congress to this day thire scarce ly an instance iu which rings and mon opolies have beeu arrayed against the in terest of the people ; that jlie has beeu found active in speech or vote upou the side of the latter, but iu almost every ease he has been the ready champion ol rings and monopolies. Sixth Resolved that we especially charge him with venality and cowardice in permiitting B. F. Buttler to -attach to the appropriation bill of . 1673 that ever-to-be-remembered iufainy the Salary Steal; aud in speaking and voting for that measure upou its final passage. Aud charge Mm with corrupt disregard of the clearly expressed demand of his eonstit ueuts thut he should vote for its repeal and with evadiug said demaud by voting for the 'Hutchison 1' amendment. Seventh Resolved that we further ar raign and denounce him for his corrupt connection with the Credit Mobilier. for his false denial thereof before his con stituents, for hi perjured deuiat thyreot before a committee of his peers in Con gress, for , fraud upon his constiuouti in circulating among them a pamphlet pur porting to set : forth the finding of iaaid committee -tnd.lM evidence Igainst him, when in fact material portions thereof were omitted and garbled. s Eighth Resolved that we further ar raign and charge him with cbrnrpt bribery, in .selling his official influence a chair- on so grand a scale as to make the achievement illnsti io is' and.is a "slue ne of rascality and colossal swindling." Twelfth Resolved that neither great ability and experience or eloquent parti san discussion of the dead issues of the late war, will excuse or justify past dis honesty and corruption or answer as a guaranty of integrity and purity for the future. . - - Thirteen Resol ved that believing the statements in the foregoing resolutions set forth we cannot without stullifyiugonr nianhood and debasing our self-respect support at the polls the nominee of the Republican couveution of this district for re-election, nor can we without sur rendering our rights as electors and citi zens, sit quietly by and see a man so un worthy again sent to represent us iu the national Legislature. That strong iu the conviction of light we call upou the electors of the district irrespective of former orpresent party attachment who desire honest government to unite with us in an earnest, faithful effort to defeat the re-election of Geueral Garfield aud elect in his stead an honest and reliable man.
