The impulse of last year lingers in' even more wide-spread evidence, making a most auspicious beemning for the first commence ment of- the University's second cen tury. t This is the fourth time in the his tory of the University that its com mencement has been honored by the presence of an' executive officer of the nation. Away back in ante-bellum days James K. Pplk returned to do honor to his alma mater, and later Buchanan was here, and still later Andrew Johnson. Not since the Avar, however, have we had with us a Presi dent or a Vice-President. Mr. Hoke Smith, the giant son of Georgia, graced the commencement of '94, but he was simply a cabinet officer.

The auditorium was filled and to-night was .packed on the occa sion of the brilliant concert, which was a fitting final to the delightful exer cises. -. ' Dr. Hoss address v was a combina tion of happy humor and; deep philo sophic reflection. He traced the influ ences of heredity and environment upon the lives of young women and closed by impressing the fact that in walking according to the laws of God lay the only safety. "Dr. Hoss is a man of depth and pleasant delivery, with a habit of introducing many popular sidelights, frequently getting a hearty applause of laughter from, the whole audience. The recitations and essays by the graduating . class have been marked by careful culture, aid this morning the presentation j of diplomas and Bibles was a pretty and impres sive picture with the girls in pure white. . , t. .

This is a day of incessant work, and such work takes' endurance, and such en durance, all things being equal, takes young years, a constant desire to be undertaking, improving, enlarging. The work here and the man are well met. The president ,Mr. i-Dred Pea cock, is a young man of 32, thoughtful, staunch of body, of executive tempera-rnftTvt- Tine in training:, possessing the confidence of all. President Peacock hns nr afternoon methods; he is all morning. If there have .been : dark shadows, his back is turned to them, nnd his face is toward the noon It looks to me as if it has taken all the heroic efforts of all the heroic men of the past to get this colllege on its feet, and that it might be said to be entering the threshhold of a new vigor with the incoming of ;the present young presidtent. The library is a case in are now 3.0U0 volumes in the library representing $5,000 outlay, all - the work of two years, and $1,000 of this amount was contributed by the noble wife of President Peacock, whose ef forts should not be separated from those of her husband in the wonderful leap forward of the institution. But the practical thing to know is that the departments of study and the internal management generally ; nave been brougrht up to the modern line. That is the main question for parents.

Dr. Callahan in his prayer yes terday morning- sent up a petition foi womanhood "that she may spread light against the times of darkness in whiclrwe have fallen." That tells the whole story. As Dr. Turrentine hap pily said last uight in his address, it was from a letter received by Thomas Jefferson from his wife that the Mon ti cello sage first got his . idea of the Declaration of Independence. Intellectual light is poor stuff unless it be flushed with love, and the Greens boro Female College, in its training, is fulfilling the whole law, in throwing about its. young women such tender influences as to enrich their mental at tainments with the subtle and sustain ing fragrance of womanhood. W. E. C. Columbus, Ga., June 1. At 1:45 p. m. this evening a mob of six hundred armed men broke into the Webster building during the trial of Jesse Slay- ton, charged with assaulting Mrs. How ard Bryan last Tuesday, and took the prisoner from the officers, j Slayton's trial had already begun be hind locked doors and a heavy armed uard of men was present: to protect the prisoner from any demonstration of violence. The mob forced the doors and with a resistless rush, swept back the spectators and guards and seized and carried the negro out into the street. A rope wus placed around . Slayton'a neck and he was dragged up Broad street, the crowd shooting; at him as he went along. Near the bell tower, they swung the negro up; and perfora ted him with bullets. . After this the mob, as coolly and de liberately as in the first instance, went immediately to the courtlnouse and overpowered the jailor and took Will Miles, a negro charged with assaulting Mrs. Albright two years jago, and mardhed slowly to where Slayton's lifeless body was hanging from a tree. The trembling negro was made to look upon the fate of his brother-in-crime, then a rope was placed about his neck and he was slowly suspended in the air and his body filled with lead. I Mrs. Bryan was assaulted at Clapp's factory, four miles from here, early on Thursday morning. She! is a young woman, not over 18 years of age. Her husband haa left home for Columbus about day-break. Shortly after he left. a big burly negro entered Mrs. Bryan's ; ,0 a Kt v. !22d of January, 1890, marked on epoch. . . .

Louisiana's New Senator Favors the White Metal. Before the Democratic caucus that nominated Mm, Mr. McEnery explain ed bis position with regard to silver and protection. It was in 1866 that he first made his views understood, he said. He had studied the question without even thinking he would be called upon ; t participate in national councils. , "During the time of the Confederacy of the States, before 1789, the nation was, without a currency," Mr. Mc Enery, continued, "and the coins of all nations circulated in the colonies. Governor Morris had one plan for a currency and Thomas Jefferson want ed another. Morris wanted the coin to be so impressed as to appeal to the af fections of tabs people, and Jefferson .wanted the deimai system. They both wanted silver. "in 1745 the Jefferson plan vvas adopted and . the silver dollar was de clared 1 the standard. Hamilton per fected the final system, but only car ried out the? plan of Jefferson. These facts impressed me with the belief that the silver dolar emanated from the Democratic party. It was placed in the currency by Washington, Jefferson and Hamilton, and that was sufficient, authority for me. Gold should take its place as a token money and circulate side by side with silver. Let us have bimettalism." Oh the question of protection, he thought sugar, the great staple of Louisiana, was "the ideal article for protection; also that it was entitled to protection in the same ratio as other manufactured articles. His authority for this came from the same Demo cratic source.; HARRITY ON THE SITUATION. Does Not Think There Will Be a Split in the Chicago Convention. Chicago, HI., June 2. Wm. F. Har rity, Chairman of the Democratic Na tional committee is . here attending the ' meeting of the sub-committee looking after arrangements for the convention. Discussing the flnancia situation in the National convention Mr. Harrity said: "I believe a fairly amicable adjust ment of the issue will be reached. It is possible the free silver element wil have a majority sufficiently large to control the convention. No, I do not look for a split. In fact, I am satis fied there will be none. Democrats as a general thing, recognize the right of the majority. to rule, and they are willing- to accept the result. "Furthermore, I think the St. Louis convention will have the effect of clarifying the atmosphere a good deal for us. We can better judge then what we want to do." ADDRESS TO FRIENDS OF SILVER. Dr. Mott Says That All Party Line Must Be Wiped Out. Washington, June l.The following circular has been given out for pub lication: Headquarters National Silver Party, Washington, D. C. May 30. 1896. To the Friends of Silver: Since the founding of this party, on January 22, 1S96, the work of the organization ha been steadily but quietly pursued, and the country has been aroused to a pitch of excitement unknown since the civil war Silver is on all lips throughout the land. It is echoed and re-echoed from the gilded mansion to the lowly cottage. As each hour pass es it becomes more apparent that a political conflict the like of which ha not been seen before is just at hand. It must be clearly understood at once that party lines cannot with stand this conflict, and so far as the friends of silver are concerned, thej must not. The party leader who puts . in his time mending party lines while the silver cause suffers will be rele gated to a deserved seclusion. There is no time for composing differencee between men who do not agree on this question. The only thing to be con sidered is how those who do agree can get together. They who say they are for free silver, aoid at the same time plead for the unity of parties, are not the friends of silver and the suf fering people. The unity of old paj I ties is the death, of silver, as every body knows. Those who look to coming years for a peaceful settlement, of this matter mistake the condition of the. times and the temper of the people. There can .be no delay. The conflict will not wait. The hour has come. The secret of success in this conflict consists in the lining up for the battle Those who compose the line must be friends, striking the same blows for the same object. This breaks party lines, and party lines oncebroken sil ver will be free. That meeting of earnest jnen on the scour the woods for the negro who was soon captured. CROPS GROWING RAPIDLY.
