SOUTH SIDE RAILROAD, This road has resumed ite transportation of freight and ngers hroogh to Lynchburg. The interruption of continuity of the line at High Bridge is for the pres- ent obviated by the use of hacks and wagons, and there isa water carriage of six miles by canal boat between the burnt bridge at James river and Lynchburg. But for the immense amount of damage done, such as the destruction of bridges, freight cars, &c., the Board of Directors, who have worked most energetically since they Tecelved permission from the government to com- mence operations, would have had the line open ere now. laced on under SOUTHERN ROAD. Ina very short time Petersburg will be in direct com- munication with North Carolina and the South. About ten miles of the road remain to be completed. The Petersburg Index suggests that the superintendent, R. M, Dunlop, make the experiment of employing white labor, “as colored labor has rather been a failure on the South- ern road,”’ and adds: “The Norfolk road is now reaping the benefit of this experiment.” OUR RETURNING VETERANS.

From an early hour in the morning thousands of people from Rensselaer and Washington counties gath- ered in the streets of Troy to witness the memorable pegear. The Twenty-fourth regiment (Colonel Isaac lcConihe), Major Steenbergh commanding, turned out in full fc with Sullivan’s band. Tho Washington Volunteers, the several steam fire engines, civic and literary associations, and thousands of citizona, among whom were the Mayor and Common Council, ex-Mayor ‘Thorn, the press and the clergy, extended a most hosp!- table and earnest gratulatory welcome to the ooncien- tious brave.

M. the proces- sion from tho college of the students and faculty, accom- panied by the trustees, with their newty elected presi- dent—the patriotic John Cessna, Esq.—entered Fulton Halt, heralded by the inspiring music of the Fencibles band, and occupied the places assigned to them, The house was immediately filled with many hundred well dreased and intelligent ladies and gentlemen, a great part of whom were from a@ distanco, The exercises being opened by an impressive prayer from tho Rev. Dr. Nevin, the late venerable Presklent of Marshall College, the band performed in excellent style the grand old an- them associated with that sublime paraphrase of the hundredth psalm, beginning with, “Before Jehovah’s awful throne,” &o, THR ORATIONS, Next came the orations of seven or eight of tho gta- duating class, with music between, the first being the Salutatory, by Stephen K. Kremer, of Lancaster, ¢xcel- lent in sentiment and spoken “with good emphasis and discretion,” An oration on the ‘Sorrows of Genius,”’ by Ezra L. Reed, of Stouchsburg, succeeded; then an oration on “Silent Cities,” by Robert ©. Weaver, of Easton, and an oration on “Marshal Ney, the Bravest of the Brave,” by Ellis N. Kremer, of Lancaster, The Franklin oration was pronounced by Peter D, Wan- ner, of Kutztown, on the ‘Roman Law;” the Marshall oration, by Tilghman 0. Stern, of Cherryville, whose sub- Jeet was “Socrates, the Wisest of Mankind’”’—according to the oracle—who was murdered by a faction on account of his pre-ominent virtue. The last of the morning ex- ercises was on oration on ‘The Empire of the Seas,” by Edgar C. Reed, of the city of Lancaster, who delivered his address with the spirit of the soldier-student who had shouldered his musket in defence of his country. He introdaced his subject appropriately by reciting Lord Byron’s magnificent lines— “ Roll on, thou deep and dark blue ocean, roll; ‘Ton thousand fleets sweep over thee in vain,” &c., which he gave with a force and modulation that would have satisfied the ear of Murdock. The whole oration was admirably declaimed. THR AFTRRNOON SESSION. With a recess of three hours the afternoon session opened at half-past two, and the hall was soon filled to overflowing. First, a prayer by President E. V. Gerhard, D.D., followed by appropriate mysio by the brass band; next the honorary orations, viz., the Salutatory by Philip D. Bakor, of Lancaster, the German oration by Jacob 8. Neift'r, of Perkiomenville, and the Valedictory by Calvin L. Gerhard, relieved by music after each address, Of the orations throughout the day, which were of judicious brevity, it may be added that they were considerably above the average merit of similar performances in thought and composition, and commendable in point of delivery. f.

Our Lewisburg Correspondence. Lewissura, July 27, 1865. ‘The fifteenth annual Commencement of this rapidly growing University came to a happy close to-day. Tho festivities began on the previous Sabbath, when sermons were preached as follows:—At half-past ten A. M., by Rey. Dr. Pendleton, Inte of Tennesse; at threo P. M., by Rev. Dr. Warren, of Boston, and at eight P.M. by Rev. A. K. Bell, of Pittsburg. Tho discourses were all of a marked character—that of the morning being dis- tinguished for its strength and earnestness; that of the afternoon for its length, and that of the evening for its happy hits at prevailing clerical follies. On Monday the public examinations of the Ladies’ Seminary, which had commenced on the previous Saturday, were brought to a successful close. On Monday evening the class day exercises of the class of 1865 took place on ‘he College Campus. THE GRAND FRATURES of this occasion were the dedication of the class tree and the presentation of the class cup. Hundreds of people wore gathered to witness the interesting ceremonies, and everybody went away delighted, The music consisted of the singing of original and selected college songs. The well known ‘“Lauriger Horatius” was finely rendered. At the close of the exercises Mr. T. E. Clapp delivered an original pocm, which deserves to be ranked among the first productions of our best poets. A mirth provok- i hecy was read by H. F. King, who jcted the friere 6 the Claes of '65 amid ane fos from an appreciative audience. WEDYESDAY MORSING was taken up by the Theological Commencement. Amon, addresses most entitled to distinction were those Thomas Leyse, of Hyde Park, and Owen P. Eaches, of Phoenixville, Pa, The addreas to the graduating class by Prof. J. F. Curtis, D. D., was of very rare ability, show. a metaphysical acumen very rarely equalied. 2 Wednesday afternoon the graduating exercises of the University Female Institute took place. The essays of the ladies were finely written, but for the most part ‘wore heard og Gomer aor by rea- son of timidity or vocal incapacity. xteen you! ladies were eraduated, fifteen of whom recelved. gold medals—tho highest honor of the institution. ’ attend.the funcral, from Base Ball, ' KEYSVONS VS.

Atthe close of the fifth inn.ngs the totals stood 16 to 15 in fuvor of the Keystoues; but alierwards the Stars rogained the lead, In the last innings the Philadelphians made a grand rally for the game, thereby deserving success, if they did not obtain it, In the eveung the Stars hospitably entertained their gu and afterwards took them home iu a large six horse stage.
