4 CLOSMG EXERCISES.
A PI.EASAWT HOUR IN SCHOOIi.
Last Friday the pupils entered on a'
two week's vacation. Friday after
noon we were present at .the closing
exercises, whiotTinterested us much,
as they doubtless did every lady aud
gentleman present.
Mary Lockwood opened the exer-
clses with a very pretty 'essay on
mountains.
MortimerIcComa8 then, with goo
voice and easy manner, delivered a
declamation 4n 'defense of " .American
Indiaus.
. Mary Harris gave a recitation on
Dan'l Boone, belngan eulogy upon that
brave hunter's Hie and fitting epitaph
uponhis death, rendered in pleasing
voice, with effect andjwithout affecta
tion. Tillie Beach. read an essay on Vol
canoes,. Which was well written and
pleasantly delivered, "and tho'' brief
almost exhaustive of the subject.
Then came music, "Distant
Chimes, ,; .the rendering of which
captivated the sense of every lover of
vochi limply, we regret not ueing
acquainted NritbT the- names of ?the
quartette who rendered it.
Mary Peery'then read with appro
priate force a piece entitled "Old Wo-mari,T,"giviilgfuH,-'e;xpr8sIun

Cora-'Gates read a beautiful essay on
climate. It was couched in well
rounded seutencea handsomely group
ed together aud was as well1 receded
,as. read.
Wm. Baily thern declaimed, his sub
ject being a reply of one En
glish Statesman to another, showing
that in temper n"f style American
Statesmen have not deteriorated from
the English1 standard. j . ,

Mary t-ogswell followed wltn a rec--itation,
;MiJt,on on hia.own blindness,
revealing the contentment of the
Christian ijierp uuder his affliction,

Another beautiful piece of music
entitled "Coraeblrdies, 'come," was
finely rendered.
Jenny Rquser then read an essay
on Magnetism, a comprehensive and
thorough history of the Magnet and
Magnetism. Well- "conceived and
well read.
Lucius Church declaimed on the
"Restoration of the Old Union."
Those acquainted with Lucius need
not be told that his declamation was
well written and admirably ren
dered. The sentiment of it howev
er, was untenable.
Anna McComas treated in a well
written essay,, the subject of Gulf
'btreams.
"Brightly Beaming" was then sung
by the Glee Club.
