Weare sorry to add, how- ever, that some young persons were not a) - ently very Pesely. interested themselves. oe raauing In out of the buildiay, distar others, and at one time interfered se ously with the comfort of the scholars, who were engaged in reading their essays. ‘The stand was tastefully decorated with adense forest of foliage, in the height of its summer green, which was thickly interspersed with gor- geous-hued flowers and. ornamented here and there with spangles of tinselry and ties of ribbon The costumes in which the scholars were altired were im ke ng with these decorations, and were at once rich, picturesque and becoming. The brilliancy of the scene was greatly enbanced by the bappysmiles which i!lumed the countenances of the scholars, and by the flood of mellow light that shed its radiance upon bushes, flowers, scholars and teachers, infusing everywhere a softening influence on the splendid display. The Weather was aiso auspicious, as the atmosphere was cooled by gentle breezes, and had to a great extent lost that suffocatin; tendency with which we have been oppressed for several days past. The exercises commenced with the perform- ance of that beautiful petile opera, the ‘Flower Queen,” which has of late become very popular with our schools generally, and is a most attrac- tive and appropriate f-ature for an occasion like this. As there were no programmes distributed by which we could be guided in a criticism of the va. tous parts, and inform the reader by whom they were rendered, we are compelled to speak of this portion of the exhibition only in general terms. The singing was very good, though sey- eral solos Were sung in tones so low as not to be appreciated ne more than half the audience. ‘Throughout the entire piece the choruses were excellent; and, indeed, all the performance showed that the pecccipante were well acquaint- ed with the vocal xclence, and competent to exe- cnte ditticult puis skillfally, and we attribute the above noted fault, if it be one. to natural dif- fidence, which arose from unusual circumstances. On the conclusion ef the Opera, or oratorio, (as sowe prefer to call it,) dialogues were recited in the English and French language, in which ali the members of the graduating class participated. ‘These were rendered faultiessly. though hardly loud enough; and the Pronunciation, accent, and gestures prove the xcbolars to be proficient in both the Janguages. Original essays Were next read on the following sn bjects: On Auction Sales,”? (by a little girl whom we are sure must be acknowledged to be a most excellent reader; ) * Life and Character of Martin Luther;”’ Going Home 5” Two Graves on the Island of St Helena—Napoleon’s and Mux. dudsou’s;? “A Peep through ‘Time's Spy-Glass—Valedictory We were sorry not to be able to get the names of the authors and readers of these essays. Tiey were ell tich in thouzht, and written in an ac- curate and fucnt styie. Several other essays were deferred on account of the late hour. Rev. Dr. Bacon, formerly President of Colum- bia College, was called upon the stand, and at the request of Mrs. Kingsford, distributed the pre miums, consisting of Landsomely bound books The following are the scholara who received pre- miums; Miss Simms, Emma Page, Mary Long, Florence Clark, Matty Willard, tliza Wales, Julia Lewis, Fanny Fossett, Miss Gwynn, Flora Ryder, Mary Fowler, Miss Fowler, Molly Northby, Mary Stevens, Ellen Mattingly, and Louisa Craig. Dr. B. then tendered the warm- est approbation of the accomplished principal aud teachers tothe Yraduates; and, aftera prayer, dismissed the audi=nee.
