WAKE FOREST COLLEGE COHI-
juencejuent..
BY OUR SPECIAL REPORTER.
Tuesday evening the Alumni Associ
ation was addressed- by Henry
B. Folk, Esq. of '. Brownsville,
Tennessee1 who graduated from this
College in the class of 1849. Mr. Folk
is a native of North Carolina, having
been born in Bertie county, but early in
lite removed to Brownsville Tennessee.
rwhere he is now recognized,not ohlv as a
hrst-rate . lawyer, but a gentleman of
admirable character. He is, not a
preacher regularly ordained, but some
times preaches the Gospel.
His topic was "Common Schools
arid Ministers," and was discussed ior
nearly an hour in. a very interesting and
spirited jnanner, setting lorth the basis
on which schools are based, giving the
history of higher learning from the days
of. Greece and Rome up to the present
time, and developing with force and
beauty the great needs of liberal cul
ture..
Mr. Folk Is a very graceful and pleas
ing speaker, arid his address , was heard
with much interest by the youth,
beauty and wisdom assembled:
At 11 o'clock Wednesday the two
Societies, the Philomathesian and Euze-
lian,, organized in their respective halls,
ana marcning 10 me notei oi tne ora
tor, lion. A. S. Merrimon, escorted him
to tha chapel of the college, where a
large audience wps in waiting to hear
and see this distinguished gentleman:
As he entered the, chapel, leaning up
on the arm of Dr. Wingate, the , Fresi-,
dent of the college, he ,was warmly ap
plauded. '
The exercises were opened with pray
er by "the Rev. Dr. Pritchard, 6t Raleigh :
after which, music by the Stanley's City
Brass Band.
Dr. Wingate introduced to the audi-
encettie speaker' in the following
words ; -It is my r pleasure, ladies and
gentlemen,.to introduce to you the dis
tinguished gentleman (and also our
present U. S. Senator) who has been se
lected to deliver the. annual address be
fore: the two literary societies, the
Philomathesian- antho-uzelian, the
Hon. A. Si Merrimon, of Raleigh."
(Applause ) " - .
Judge Merrimon advanced to the
stand amid the deafening applause ol
the large audience. .
We could not of course give a synop
sis of the excellent address of Judge
Merrimon withont doin him iniustice.
We have heard him frequently at the
Bar, and olten before political assembla
ges, and his reputation . inv bpth of the
above capicities is too vrejl known for
lis to add one word in his'praise, but..we
never saw him more at nouetndn in ms
address on education -ednesday, the
anbiect he chose for his. theme. ve
only express the opinion of his large
audience, many of whom had heard him
often before on other subjects, that, his
address before the two literary societies
of -Wake Forrest College was realy the
crowning act of his life. ' '
As above stated'1 his theme was; the.
subject of education, which,.- he sai.d, in,
his preparatory remarks, though gener
ally considered as worn out, was never
theless not exhausted. In this State
ment he-fullv sustained its truthfulness,
that is, if we are to judge by the wrapt
attention of the large audience .during
the delivery of the lengthy, but, .truly
interesting and entertaining address.
.The address will undoubtedly be pub
lished in pamphlet form for-the use: of
theoceties and general .clistributioii,
andnot untu it is out win us great
merit be properly appreciated.

THURSDAY MOENING.f
COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES
AT PEACE INSTITUTE.
Yesterday the Commencement Exer
cises were held at thi3 Institution, and
were1, witnessed with evident delight by
an audience, of culture and taste, and
the spacious and handsome chapel was
filled to overflowing.
Many strangers, friends perhaps of
pupils and attracted by the inviting
programme of -exercises, were present,
and enjoyed the literary and musical
festival. ' .
We recognized upon the platform,
members of the Board of Trustees,
clergymen, professon and gentlemen of
literary culture.
The exercises were opened at 11
o'clock with an appropriate prayer by
Rev. Dr. Atkinson, of this city. This
was followed by a sacred chorus, "Sing
Praises to God," rendered ia excellent
taste and with fine effect by the singing
class. -
The Principal then announced dis
tinctions awarded the pupils in the
various departments of scholastic study,
in music and in art, and also in deport,
ment.
Rev. II. G. Hill, of FayetteviHe, was
introduced by Rev. Mr. Burwell, Prin
cipal, and delivered an address replete
with literary polish, humor, instructive
counsel and especially hard sense. His
subject was Woman's Wrongs, and his
earnest and impetuous oratory showed
how deeply he felt them and how
earnestly he desired to redress them.
His assaults on fashion and deceptive
compliments of men, defective parental
training, and superficial education, and
especially the vain and foolish whims of
so-called reformers of woman's sphere,
ere just and severe. The address was
fitly closed by referring all jtrue redress
to the word of God and allegiance to
its teachings.
It was listened to with profound at
tention by an unwearied audience.
The address was followed by an ex
quisitely beautiful Duo for two Pianos,'
"Fantasie on Lucrezia Borgia ' which
was brilliantly executed by Misses Lacy
and Dewey.
Rev. Mr. Burwell next introduced
Prof. S. J. Stevens, who delivered the
address to the graduating class. The
task was done with fidelity, taste and
much feeling with a delicacy and. ten
derness that touched every one: allusion
was made to the cause of the absence of
one of the graduating class, whose ex
quisite vocalization Raleigh audiences
had appreciated and applauded, sud
denly summoned rby the saddest be
reavement that may befall a daughter.
The Diplomas of Graduation "were
then" awarded the class of young ladies
by. Rev. Mr. Burwell with a few re
marks, simple, appropriate, solemn and
given by the Principal to each ot the
young ladies.
The graduating class i3 as follows :
Miss Marv V. Elliott, Winsboro, S. C;
Miss Ella.V. Flemming, Raleigh, N. C;
Miss lonnie Hannah, Charlotte county,
Va.; Miss Sallie A. Howard, Union
county, N. C. Miss Hannah was absent.
The young x ladies were beautifully
dressed and presented a lovely scene
upon the platform during these presen
tations. A "Parting Song" concluded the
programme and was rendered with feel
ing, many eyes being suffused with tears.
The music was under tne direction ot
rof. A. Bauaiann, who added to his
already high reputation as a Prolessor
of Music, not only by his bwn perform
ance, but bv his abiiitv to teacb others,
as evinced in the great proficiency of his
pupils.
After these exercises tne audience
visited the Drawing Roobs where the
drawings and paintings of the pupils
were on exhibition, in e room, was
tastefully adorned, and the pictures
were all admirableundmany ot tnem
really beautiful.
Tbe Uecitation looms and tne ran
osoplucal and Cliemical Apparatus were
shown to " visitors, who roamed with
evident delight through the spacious
apartments.
The 'first "'Commencement of Peace
Institute has passed; but lor many a day
will the sweet Pdor of the nappy yes
chastened pleasure of so delightiul an
occasion .linger in the memory.

are several of these factories at work at
Greensboro, and now two are at labor
in, Charlotte, one started, by Vus Whis

St. John's Day at Roles yille.
The celebration of St. John's Day at
Rolesville, this county, on Tuesday,
proved to be a most enjoyable affair.
There were seven Masonic ; lodges well
represented, besides a largq crowd from
the surrounding country present. The
ladies mustered in strong force. On
every hand we hear the address of the
orator of the occasion, Geo. H. Snow,
Esq., of this city, spoken of in the lan
guage of high compliment. A gentles
man of great "culture, who resides not
far from Rolesville, informed us that,
although he knew Mr. Snow, to be a
young man of decided talent, yet the
address far surpassed his expectations.
It contained, said he,': not only choice
flowers culled with nicest judgment
from the field of rhetoric, but food upon
which the reflective mind could feed
with profit, and was elevated in tone.
happy in conception and gracefully de
livered.
One of the features of the day was an
appetizing and -ample barbecue which
the large crowd relished greatly.

Movements of the President Ru
mored, Official Decapitation.
New York, June 25. In the billiard
tournament Cyrelle beat Dion and Ubas
sy beat Decry. . , , :
A Tribune special from Long Branch,
dated the 24th, says that the President,
accompanied by Thomas Murphy, left
here to-day for Washington. He was
visited last evening by several gentlemen
who urged the removal of Mr. Richard,
son from the Treasury Department, and
it is known that Wall street is , making
a determined effort to induce the Presi
dent to make this change, E. E. Mor
gan is urged for successor. AU these
facts and others that cannot now be
given, induce well informed men here
to believe that the President's visit to
Washington at this time has referenc e
to this subiect. - .' . .
I'crsona who have spoken to the Prea
ident lately on Jthe matter say that while
ne did not declare his intention of mak
ing a speedy change in the Treasury
Department, they left his presence with
the belief that his decision was made to
do so. It is also ascertained that tha
official life of Minister Jay will termi
nate upon tbe close of the Vienna Expo
sition. He has loner been -marked bv
the President for removal, and he would
have been dispatched several: months
ago, but for the fact that hia long resi
dence at Vienna seems to furnish a suf
ficient reason to the administration for
retaining him for his experience during
such an important period.
