Thcclosingof the ten week's term of school, held here by Profs. Hare and Jackson, was a very entertaining, and certainly a very interesting one. Although the earliest part of the day made its appearance with a heavy fop, it gradually grew brighter till the hour arrived that tho students and teachers gathered at the old school- house for tho last time. The ringing of the bell struck deep in that foun- tain of the soul that always carries a deep sigh to the heart on such occa- sions; but these thoughts were dis- persed by the singing of that old fa- miliar hymu * Shall We Gather at the River,” after which the Profs, pro- ceeded with the usual forenoon reci- tations. As each class was excused the faces of all wore the sad expres sion of "tiik i.ast timk.” At 11 :15 tho classes wore all hoard, and Prof, llare gave the school a lecturo that was certainly remarkable for the pure- ness of thought uot only on the prin- ciples of gaining mu education but also advico to the grand success of life at large, giving good advico to the young ladies, and also warning the young men of the dreadful preci- pice they arc sure to plunge over if thoy should ever attempt to follow the muddy stream of lulcmperanco, whose waters are ns poisonous as the deadly Strychnine, and whose banks nre lined with thousands of reptiles whoso eyes aro as piercing ns the glittering sun and whose form is greater than that of the Boa-Constrlo tor or the An acondas. After giving this advice, he dismissed tho school, a part of which was now in tears and the rest with quivering lip. Iu addi- tion to the common school branches the pupils had the advantage of sev- eral good lessons on elocution, taught by Mrs. John Crane. At the begin- ning of the school she announced that she would give an entertainment at tho close of the term, and also ofTcrod two prizes—the first was five dollars in gold and the second a fine bo >k on elocution. Those who entered the contest consisted of Miscs Jennie Names, Mattie Coperaan, Kfllo Feath- er, Oda Metzlor, A. E. Michael Mo* eea Lee and VV. ,K. Michael. This conUbl was held .in the afternoon. The house w as crowded at 1:30 p, m. At 2 o’clock the Bchool opened with a piece of music played by threo of the bc.-t musicians in the state— Profs. Porter and Jackson and John Crane. The contest lasted about one hour and thirty minutes, after which the judges decided that Min? Edie Feather, merited the first prize a tie between Miss Jennie Names and Mr. A. E. Michael for the second. The pieces recited were all very good, and the participants showed no sign of embarrassment. Mrs. Crane is cer- tainly a very useful and gen »rous woman, and has the thanks of all the students. Prof. liar3 also gavo two prizes to the ones who made the best progress in arithmetic, and after a close examination they were awarded to Miss Lillie Elliott of the ladies and Mr, George White of the boys class These prizes consisted of two books of poems.
