and I trust there is no officer in the
Company's seryice .'that would allow
a train to run over any bridge that he
uia nor, consider sate. ,
It is true the bridge was an old one
and was soon to j be rebuilt, and be
cause, or its condition had been
strengthened by "benches'? or sup
ports every thirty feet, makinsr it
abundantly able to carry any load that
it would be submitted to; new floor
beams were put in at the same time,
and the track, so far as I knew, was
in good Order, j
This bridge is of the kind known as
a "lattice'' bridge, and in a railroad
experience of j more than twenty
yearsi I have never known one to
breakdown. i
They! always give warning by set
tling and by means of additional sup
ports can be made safe much longer

Closing Exercises at the Academy of
the luearnatlon Order of Exer
cises and Partial Premium Ilt. '
- The annual commencement of tbe Acad
emy of the Incarnation, look place as we
stated in yesterdays' issue in the- new and
spacious hall of the institution Wednesday
night . The hall was thronged with an ad
miring audience. The walls were hung
with crayon drawings and paintings in wa
ter color and oil, tho work of the young lady
pupils while handsome festoons of ever
greens here and there, made the scene very
attractive. On one side of the stage
was seated Right Reverend Bishop Gib
bons who presided on the occasion and
Reverend Fathers Gross and White. Dur
ing the evening tbe .young lady pupils oc
cupied the other side of the stage, present
ing a charming picture and seeming the
very 'embodiment' of gtace,'. beauty
and happiness. The exercises! were of a
high order, the musical performances, Eng
lish and French recitation being especially
excellent The entrance march was per
formed by Miss Josie Deans, a charming
youngimiss, who gave evidence of much
musical ability. The Hymn, "Sweet
Mother Pray for Us," was rendered in fine
style, by Misses Conigland, . Callahan and
Brad8liaw. The mnsical accompaniment,
by Miss Anna Monk, added much ' to the
excellent rendition of the beautiful hymn.
An instrumental solo, "Dawn Waltz," by
Miss Leua Monks, was much appreciated.
One of tbe attractive features of the enter
tainment was "A Talk on (be Play Ground."
A recitation, by Misses Maggie Darby ,t Kate
Sweeney, J. Deans, Kate Collins, jKate
Bauman, Annie Conigland, Lena Monks
and Kate Fitzgerald. The young ladies
entered into ibeir several parte with a
modest confidence and earnestness , that
gave evidence of excellent training. 'The
recitation was one calculated to present in
an entertaining light the joys and little
vexations experienced during the happy
school days. Most faithfully was the pains
and pleasures' of the school girl, repre
sented, and one wound almost imagine that
he was viewing the young Misses engaged
in an earnest conversation beneath the
shade on the pleasant play ground, so life
like, was the picture. "The Harp that
Once Thro Tara's Halls," ah instrumental
solo, was rendered n &U i8 most soothing
pathos, by Miss Lizzie Monks. Tbe young
lady was loudy applauded. "The Birth
Day Party," a recicitation, by Misses F.
Conigland, Louisa Turner, Mary Divine,
Cecilia Callahan, Anna Monk, II. . Brad
shaw, S. Diviue, Susan Reilly and Mary
Anna Furlong; was highly entertaining, and
listened to with interest The young ladies
acquitted themselves with much credit.
Miss Fanny Conigland took the principal
character in this pleasing little drama. She
evidenced much vivacity and genuine
ability in the rendition of her part "Sing
ing of the Birds," a 'sweet instrumental
solo was charmingly performed by Miss
Anna. Monk.- This .young lady gives
evidence ' of rnnch musical talent
"Silvery' ; Waves," an' instrumental solo,
justly appreciated as a rare musical gem,
was rendered by Miss Fanny Conigland in
fine style. A French , recitation by Misses
Fanny Conigland, Mary Darby, Mary and
Sallie Divine, endured much thorough
training on the part of the young ladies in
that language.' After tbe rendition of sev
eral other instrumental solos Miss Mary C.
Darby delivered the valedictory in a very
creditable manner. The "Greeting Glee,'',
as sung by all the pupils, closed the exer
cises; after which Rev. Bishop Gibbons in
his peculiarly eloquent and happy vein en
tertained the pupils and the audience with
an instructive and interesting address. The
Rev. Bishop, in fitting terms, complimented
the young ladies for the -proficiency they
had manifested, and paid a high tribute to
their efficient teachers, 'the good : sisters.
The . annual commencement .was then
brought to a close, after having occupied
nearly three hours, and the audience ro
luctantly took their departure. 4 "

The Ashpole Celebration.
We copy from the liobesoman the follow-
ing account of the recent celebration of St
John's Day, Bannocksburn and the com
mencement of Ashpole Academy, Robe
son county:'77; ---
"An immense crowd of persons, various
ly estimated at from 2500 to 4000 in num
ber, assembled at Ashpoleon Thursday last
to witness the literary and Masonic ceremo
nies appointed for that day. J
"The exercises commenced by declama
tions on the part of the students of Ashpole
Academy and were followed by tne liter
ary address byHori. ' A. M. Waddell, of
Wilmington. We will attempt no eulogy of
that address. "The Great- Deep" was
treated in a masterly manner, was exhaust
ive in scientific detail and . showed a most
thorough acquaintance with all the latest
scientific discoveries. The vast audience
listened with attention throughout tbe en
tire address and were evidently satisneri
that the speaker was no ordinary man. ; At
the conclusion of the address Col: Waddell
made some general remarks, paying a high
compliment to the South Carolinians who
had flocked to hear him. He was compelled,
owing to the vastness of the audience, to
speak in tbe open air to acres of people wbo
had come expecting to hear a great speech,
andlhey were not disappointed. He re
minded his audience that the occasion was
the annivery cf the battle of Bannochburn,
fought June 24th, 1314: paid a glowing
tribute to Masonry, and concluded by al
luding to tbe happy effect produced by the
centennial celebration throughout tbecoun
try. i ,
Col. Mullins, who was selected to de
liver the Masonic address, was prevented
by severe illness. This was a sore disap-
E ointment to his North Carolina friends.-
is selection was signally, appropriate, as
the spot where he was to speak was the first
settlement of his ancestors in this State and
his friends were eager to greet his return as
an honored son to the ancient family seat
after years of absence. : . ' . :,zr
Altogether the celebration was an im
portant event in the history of the Ashpole
country. . Not the slightest thing occurred,
to mar tbe pleasures of the occasion. . The
dinner was spread on a table three hundred
feet lone, and was ample to supply the vist
multitude in attendance. ' -The. music Was
excellent ana everyooay pieaseu. . , s -

.'.'OPERA HOV8EJ
Concert in Behalf of the memorial
;v The musical entertainment, given I by
Prof. Tamburello with several of his most
proficient pupils, waS one of the moBt enjoy
able '(we have ever attended. Tbe pro-
gramme was made up of a pleasing .variety
of vocal and instrumental pieces, all of
which reflected great credit on teacher and
students. : The rendition of the 'Ave Maria,"
composed by Prof. Tamburello, was inim
itabl& i'j The pianissimo passages and del
cate trills - with which the J composition
abounds were worthy of" some of the mas
ters of the divine art of music, who, like
Prof. Tamburello, first drew their inspira
tion from the storied land of Italy, ' ' 'Sap
pho," (Pacini) . sung by Miss; Calais, was
heartily encored by the audience. The
next piece oh the programme, composed by
Tamburello, was a vocal sextette. ! It was
also encored. At intervals during the per
formance of this piece Miss Savage's high,
pure, sweet,' soprano voice held her listeners
spell-bound ' as she sang the short-solos
which had been appropriated to her.
In part second it is more difficult to dis
criminate between the different pieces than
in the first part From the 'beginning of
the "Serearadi" until the close of the final
t'.4Concertato" we wondered, as each piece
was (almost perfectly executed, whether
Prof. Tamburello and his accomplished as
sistants could offer a more delightful mor
ceau to a warmly appreciative audience.
Mrs. Taylor's touch is peculiar for its
silvery eloquence and her unembarrassed
and not to frequent use of the pedal, a fault
so often found, was particularly noticeable.
Her time is also very good. We regret that
Mrs. Lippitt did not favor us with a solo,
but we were charmed with I her full, rich
notes in the vocal duet with I Miss Savage.
. Seven of the pieces pn the programme
were composed by Prof.' Tamburello. He
gives promise to occupy no moderate posi
tion in the profession which he has chosen.
We are indebted to him for a delight
ful evening, and the noble causc to which
the proceeds of the concert will be given
renders our indebtedness doubly great. ' -
XII II LAST OF TnELOWSSY GANG.
George Applewhite a Prisoner He Is
T "ldentlfiea by a Photograph. .:
We learrt from a special telegram sent us
last night, that George Applewhite, a ne
gro, and the! last' of the Lowery Gang, is
now a prisoner and in the custody of the
Sheriff of Wayne county. - From what we
can learn, Applewhite was arrested on
suspicion and identified by means of a
photograph. The prisoner was some time
ago," sentenced to death in one of the interior
counties of our Stato and broke jail while
awaiting the day of execution. This is the
last of the gang of thieves and murderers,
that once infested a portion of the State
It is to' be hoped that the bird will be se
curely caged this time, in order that the
majesty of the law may be vindicated. .
