Later in the evening an English dia logue was performed, In which Miss Ju|ia H«jtor admirably sustained the roll assigned her. The musics] exercises were profit fiueccessfully conducted, with the simple exception af the time being rather fast, but that may be accounted for in the trepidation felt by the children in ap- l>earing before Bitch a houseful of folks. Several young ladies, whose names we did not ascertain, acquitted themselves in a manner highly cred itable, Among the younger puuijj Miss Maggie Crankshaw and Miiu Julia Hector, deserve especial men tion. The distribution of prizes was not the least entertaining port of the pro gramme. Between W50 «nd *300 worth of chotoe volumes wseiy awpfd- ed, and the recipiepta looked in every way worthy* . n The presentation of the gold medal to Miss Emma Bntt^ was a pleasing incident This young lady is the first graduate of the school, and in leaving it she carries with her the love and admiration of her companions, as well as the kind sisters. Father 0’- Reily made a well-timed presentation address Mias Butts also reoeived the first wreath for general conduct Her valedictory was pleasing, and clothed in elegant diction. The exercises were prolonged to a late hour in the night, and the schol ars and their friends had a most agree able evening. This school is qne of the best con ducted and most success^] in the city. It is rapidly taking a front rank, an^ will, no doubt, soon have to enlarge its capacities to meet the. extended la bor it will be required to perform. VI BT ARMIfi.

On the way, a number of mm rushed into the ladies’ cat; and some of them took seats. Mom ladies coming in, the conductor requested one of the gentlemen to give up Ms seat The young gent got. his beak up, and drew his pistol. A scbffle ensued, during which quite a “flight of doves” was witnessed. The affair ended without material damage, how ever, and the cry was, “all quiet along the Air-Line.” Cade James Harris la Tkaaked. Our worthy Sheriff, J. O.
