The Exercises of the Commence ment Day. The closing eiercixes of the Raleigh 1 male academy, Messrs. Morson and i Denson, principals, were held this j morning at the school house, in the presence of a large audience compris ing many of the most cultured and prominent citixens of Raleigh. After a most appropriate and touching pray er by the Rev. Dr. A. M. Simms, of the Baptist tabernacle, ('apt. C. B. Denson made a -brief address upon the character and scope of the work per formed by the school in its various de partments of classical, scientific and business instruction. The special means employed to call forth the ex pression of the facts and principles acquired in each subject of study were explained in detail, and the system of mental development illustrated. The gratifying results were pointed out in the after career of the students who had remained long enough to enter college and business life with full preparation. The thorough and com plete course of English in all depart ments of its study was especially ad vocated. The long lists of honors were then read, embracing the names of those who had made the highest percentage in Latin, Greek and English literature, the mathematic, physical sciences and commercial studies, as well as the work of the primary department un der the immediate charge of professor Lentz. Mr. J. C. Scarborough then deliver ed the annual address, filled with broad and patriotic spirit and directed inainly to the need of building character in the young men of the future. He deprecated the consideration of edu cation from the point of view of its monied value. His remarks, while ex temporaneous, were pointed with apt illustrations, some of which were felicitously introduced, from his re cent trip to Gettysburg and Sharps burg. He dwelt eloquently upon the success open to every man who has sincere desire to accomplish good in the world. North Carolina must edu cate her children, not merely to get the wealth of some of her northern sisters, but to develop the noblest faculties of her people, and to uplift herself to the highest possible plane of social and individual happiness. The address received hearty ap plause, in which the students joined enthusiastically. The certificates of distinction were distributed, Prof. Hugh Morson announced that the cat alogue would soon be issued, and that the school, under the same manage ment, would reopen the first Monday of September next. The Rev. A. B. Hunter pronounced the benediction. General satisfaction was expressed by all who were present, and the princi pals were warmly congratulated by the parents of pupils and others. The following note, which explains itself, was received too late, unfortu nately, to be read as intended: Raleigh, June 8, 1894. "My Dear Messrs. Morson & Denson: Please announce that, beginning with your fall term of 1894 I will pre sent to the young man attending it a gold medal, to be known as "The Nes bitt Kendrick" medal, for deportment; the mark to be 100. With best wishes I remain, your friend, M. N. Kendrick. Dr. Hubert A. Royster, who gradu ates this week as first in a class of 271, at the university of Pennsylvania, was thoroughly prepared at this academy. The present students are keeping 'up the old reputation. Junius Grimes, of Pitt, a pupil of the academy, has just taken the position of alternate in the examinations at Edenton, the first place being awarded to a compet itor three years older than himself and specially prepared for the exami nation by several years drill. The appearance of "Jack the Peeper" about Goldsboro is not heralded with much delight by the citizens. His objective points are private bath and bedrooms usurally frequented by the gentler sex.
