OARLINGTON'S ADDRESS fjllcwnd uj reading U tto Kiu, Thoos of J-oor riider, who ben bud the pleumre of hearing flit. distinguished gentleman apeak on any subject can form something like a correct idea of hit effort yesterday. conaumed about forty-fivo minutes in delivery, and he made one of his heppieet effort*. It iru an address to the school In general, and tho Alum na* Society in particular. His audience were charmed and delighted with his es*y, graceful manners, beau tiful allegories, pathetic reminiscences and patriotic allusions. Indeed, it was outside and far superior to the general ‘’run’* of such address, and showed that the General was as much at homo and altogether as familiar with the classics end fine srts ss he is learned in the musty lore of Blackstone and Story. Tho ad. dress will be published, as it should be, and preserved as a literary jewel of rare value. DIKNXn. After Goneaal Garlington finished, tho exorcises wero adjourned for dinner. Now, West Point shone forth in her great role of hospitality. The large number of visitors pressntwere only perplexed on one point, and that was, “who shall I dine with?' It was only necessary for them to know that one was a stranger, and bo was at once besieged with solicita tions of “you go with me." It wi9 no hollow formality, these invitations. They were genuine wishes for one’s comfort and enjoyment while here. I made promise and went to tbe Chattahoochee, with those whole-souled fellows, Billy Williams and John Higgin botham, for I know that there I would find a good dinner, accommodating hosts and cool rooms. Their greatest pleasure seems to consist in rendering a guost comfortable while ho is around. And I found it THE AFTERNOON SESSION consisted in priza reading by tho Sophomore Class, and an address by W. P. Pinckud, Esq., of Alabama. Tbqpclass consisted of thirteen young ladies, who read and contested for a beautiful prize, which was awarded by a committee to tho best reader. Those who read were Misses Georgia Callaway, Helen Gaines. Jennie Heyinan, Jennie Leverett, Mollie McMceken, Mo’.lie Johnson, C^rrinne Holstun, Mary Seales, Rebecca Ruff, Fanny Sellers, Gabie Brugnot, Annie Smith and Lulla Bass, la a matter of this sort it is a hard mat. ter for a committee to decide. All do not agree, snd it is perplexing to decide who shall have the prize. At last a compromise was effected, and the prize was given to Miss Corrinne Holstun. <& CO., J. M. AX.

His theme was “the Philosophy ol Clubs," His fpeech was well prepared—showing great famil iarity with the subject, and great depth of tbonght. His delivery was alsotexceilent. Altogether the effort was a highly creditable one, and we are giaJ to see that it is to be published. W. II.

Yesterday 3. W. Billings petitioned tbe Ordmaty for a writ of habeas corpus to recover possession of Rose F. Wakaister, a minor child aged 13 years, whom it was alleged was illegally detained by Simon Below. Billings claimed that the child was bound to him by the Ordinary of Union county, in December 1870, and produced a certified copy of tba articles of appren ticeship. Below claimed that the chili was bound to him In Dawson county in January 1871;' his articles of ap prenticeship were also in evidence. Billings’ articles were not properly attesteJ, snd Be’.ow’s had never been recorded. The parties asked time to have their papers properly attested; meanwhile, the girl t oes to the poor bouse. This case was reported to ns by J. Tyler Cooper and Jam?* D. Collins, Esquires. Mr. Billings was represented by T. F. Black, Etq. Thos. Finly for Below. N.

Oaths, bad i umes, knives and razors flew round freely, and nobody was hurt. Goodlett sad Dick Hoff each paid ten snd costs, but the peacefnl Joseph was only required to deposit a V.

Yesterday forenoon a very serious if not fatal acci dent, took place at East Point in’tbic county. Docb D’Alvlgny, an* old and respected resident of Atlanta, accompanied by bis lady, drove in bis buggy to East Point, six miles from tbU city, on the Macon Railroad, for tbe purpose of purchasing a piece of land from Major Laiterree, in that vicinity. The Doctor, after hitching his horse to a tree in front of Mrs Wi residence, leaving liis wife in the buggy, started with the Major to look at tbe premises he intended buying the Utter riding a mare, accompanied by a mule colt- The Doctor's horse broke the bitching strap aud en deavored to follow, which Mrs. D'Alvigny tried to prevent by lightning the rein, causing the animal to toward the railroad, which, at that point, ia in a ent, some teu feet below the surface of the wagon road, over which were precipitated Aba horsa, wagon and Mrs D’AWigny, Tba lady, who Is well stricken in years, was brought to a state of insensibility to tbe residence of Mrs. Ware, who, with the ladies of her household, and Mrv. D. L. Hill, who happened to be present, were un remitting in their attentions to aleviate the Bufferings of the unfortunate lady, who was much bruised, snd it wsa feared internally injured by the accident. The buggy was smashed into splinters, la the afternoon ths Doctor procured a covered spring wagon and con veyed hia wife to hia home on Peachtree street. Tbe Doctor and his lady have car sympathies in their great misfortune. Forsyte, Ga , July 16, 1873. The present is conceded to be tbe moat brilliant commencement here since the establishment of the institution, nineteen years ago. Despite the lapse of time since tbe inauguration of the exercises, the in terest in them Lave been increasing steadily, until now the College is the central figure of attraction in Forsyth, and the pride of the citizens in whose midst it is located. On yesterday the SOPHOMORE EXHIBITION. The prize rhetorical reading was concluded by Misses Ella Amos and Ella Proctor, the first of whom recited “Curtain Lecture—Forsyth Town Council,” and the last named “Minnehaha," or “Laughing Wa ters." The class was composed of eight young ladies, aud we cannot forego the expression of our gratifica tion at the admirable manner in which they all ac quitted themselves, and particularly four of the num ber, whose recitations elicited univerral commenda tion. At this exhibition the b auty and chivalry of the section was well represented, and the spacious hall w. 11 filled. But at 8 r. x., on the occasion of the ATHXNEAN SOCIETY ENTERTAINMENT, the audience was swelled by arrivals on the evening trains, until the hall waa crowded to repletion. The scene at this time was beautiful beyond descrip tion, for, added to the brilliancy of the lights was the illumination from the fair faces of the ladies of Forsyth, of whom there areas many as in any town of no larger population In the State, to gether with charming repreientativea from Macon and other places. The Society, which is in a highly flourishing condi tion, was equal to the expectatioas of th s p.ople. and riveted undivided attention from the first appearance of its members on the stage. This last had been beau tifully and artistically decorated with evergreens, and when brought in contact with nature’s most splendid production—amiable and lovely ladies—the triumph was apparently complete; but after a brief suspense. A sudden aud delightful transition was announced in the introduction a ‘Cantata,’’ enti tled “an hour in Fairy Land," which was soon de veloped into a grand coronation festival, Mias Laura Lee, of Atlanta, an amiable and graceful young lady, being triumphantly crowned “Queen of the Faries." She appeared with a retinae of attendants, who hand somely performed her bidding. The other imper sonations were Miss Kata Hillyer. who represented “Faira Content," Miss M. Dannielly “Fairy True Heart," Mias Gould Aabury “Fairy Fun," Miss 8- Gibson “Fairy Good Will," The procession marched around tbe stage, after which the Queen was con ducted to ber throne and seated. This was followrd by the chorus from rich voices, “Hail! all Hail Our Sovereign 1” The Fairies were then com manded to give an account of their doings since last meeting. In response to this “Fairy Cricket" sung “When the Lights of Home are Beaming," and illustrated her song by a tableaux, “An Old Fashioned Fireside." “Fairy Fun” followed with song. “I’m the Life of the Young and Old," endiDg with tableaux, "A Winter Scene." “Fairy Content" sung “Though Homes be Dark and Poor,” concluding with tbe tab leaux “Cotters Saturday Night." “Fairy True Heart" sung “The Loving Charms of Home." introducing the tableaux a “Golden Wedding. “Fairy Good Will" sung “Up and Down the World so Weary,” illustrating tbe same with a tableaux. The Qaeen, after the last tableaux, returned thanks to her subjects, aud “for worthy thoughts and gentle deeds" crowned the Farries Content and Good Will, after which her Queenly Majesty bade her sub jects “good night" and retired amid applause from the audience. The exercises of the evening con cluded with the reading of a composition by Miss Gib. son on the "Fashions. ’ This article evinced deep thought and research by tbe author, and was admira bly read. At 11 o'clock a. u. to-day tbe Junior Exhibition and presentation of a gold medal to the successful com petitor of the Sophomore Class, by Judge Robert P* Trippe, c f the Supreme Court, took place. Tho Junior Class Is compoeed of 4/01!owing eight yonng ladies Miss Augusta M. Greffn»ho read composition entitled “What must it be;" Miss Sallie A. Garland, “The links of old;" Miss Cynthia J. Tollcson, Miss Cordelia Hor- nady, “What does it cost;” Miss Ella B. Newsom “Our mission;" Miss RosieS. Sneed, “Will it pay;" Miss Lillie B. Carswell, “Drawing and painting;’’ Miss Katie Banks, “It might have been." Tbe gold medal was awarded by tbe committee to Miss , tbe suc cessful contestant. Tho grand concert takes place to night. West Point Female College. The Proceedings on Monday—Description of tho College Building—The Annual Es say—Gen. Garlington’s Address—Dinner— Afternoon Exercises. Special Correspondence Atlanta Herald. West Point, Ga., July 15, 1873. From the short dispatch 1 sent you yesterday you hare only the skeleton of what was done here on that day. At an early hour the citizens of tbe place and the good honest, substantial farmers, and their wives and daughters from tbe adjacent country, early began pouring into town, and from thence across the long bridge which spans the waters of the murky Cbatta* hooches to the College Cbappel, which is situated on an eminence overlooking, and about three quarters of a mllo from town. This is one of the finest sites in the whole country for the purpose to which it is assigned. Situated high and far above the lew flats of the river bottoms, it is free from any miasmali- cal influence which may arise from such places, and Is at once cool, clean and commanding. Here it is that the West Point Female College is built. THE BUILDINO is a large, two-storied, framed edifice, neatly and com* fortably constructed, with all the necessary surround ings to render the attendants pleasant aud comforta ble. Tbe institution is presided over by Prof. Mooty, one of tbe best Instructors in tho South. Asa proof of this assertion, he has been here several years, and his school has constantly increased every succeeding year, and at the past session his roster called for nearly one hundred young ladies and misses. This, of itself, is an unqualified endorsement of the Professor, because the people of West Point are not of the sort to encourage aod foster any man or enterprise In their midst which they do not believe to be conducive to their iutereets, and they are generally a successful snd prosperous people. Bat to go back to tho chapel. We left ths crowd pouring into it like be.s. The first on the day'w pro gramme was the ANNUAL ESSAY to the Alumna? Society, by one of Us members. This time the essay was read by Mrs. Mollie B. Hig ginbotham, nee Miss Winston, of this city Yonr correspondent did not arrive in time io hear this paper read, but is most reliably informed, by competent judges, that for chaste and elegant language, pathos and sentiment, it excelled any similar production ever lxfore pre sented to the society. Her anbject was “ The E evation of Woman lathe Elevation of the Human Race." Those who personally knew Mia. Higginbotham were prepared for this literary trsagj and to strangers who were present it was indeed a meat agreeable surprise. As Gen. Garlington remark ed, when he arose to address the audience, *« it had so completely taken the wind out of hie sails as to leave him but little to say." Mm. H. ie the accomplished wife of Mr. W. B. Higginbotham, one of the rising yonng merchants of this place. MR. nXCXAED S ADDRESS to the Scphomoros waa short, sharp aud entertaining. He is a rising young lawyer of Alabama, and has all the early marks of a prom inert man. He is young yet, but time, patience aud due diligence has told, asd will tell again.

This band is composed of some of the finest youcg gentlemen of West Point, and is quite an acqisi* tion to the town. Last night they were assisted In their entertainment by several pretty young ladies, and the proceeds were for the purpose of improving the talent of the band. The play of TEN NIGHTS IN A DAB ROOM was presented, and I must say that I have never seen the same play better rendered, even by professionals. It was such an agreeatlo surprise that I grew enthu siastic, as did the immense crowd present. The acting of the Messrs. Higginbotham, Jones, Calhoun, Sheppard, Birch and Henderson was first rate, while the parts sustained by Misses Gatchet, Harrell and little Miss Hatchett could not bo excelled by tho best performers in the country. Particularly did the plain tive voice and child-like simplicity cf the latter at tract the attention cf the audience, who were more than once molted to tears as her perfect “Father, dear Father, come home with me now" softly stole upon the ears of the entranced assemblage 1HE RECEIPTS * of the eatertaiument netted nearly two huudred dol. lars, ard was the best attended of any “pay concert’' was ever at in a country town.

TO-DAY the exhibition of the junior c!as^, and an address by Mr. Smith, of Newnan. To-night ths grand con cert by the music class of the College comes off. To morrow is commencement day, and at night annual reunion. M. Latest from West Point, West Point, July 15, 1873. The Address before the Junior Class of the Female College to-day by F. P. Smith, Etq., of Newoan, waa the grandest effort of bis life. He spoke for an hour. Piety; Miss Ella Davidson represented the Genius of Beauty. This piece, taken as a whole. wa9 one of the grandest over performed upon the stage by young ladies. Music, by Miss Thompson and Tom Armistead— “Evening Star Waltz," the best thing of tho season— could not get along without Miss Thompson aud Tom Armistead. Next a Charade—“ Mrs. Vaticia Smith’s Parly," a piece of rare excellence. Next a Poem by Tennyson, “ The conclusion of New Year's Eve," read by Miss Nannie Zachry. It was read with earnestness and pathos of feeling. This Poem, like all others from the celebrated author, was very rich; and Mist Zacliry done herself much credit. Music, then a Cbatade, “ Very Bashful." This piece had more good fun in it than all the others. They were frequently interrupted by tlie outbursts of laughter from the crowd. Then a poem by Hood, “The Bridge of Sighs," read by Miss Mary Farmer; read with distinctness and beauty. Music. Fire-Fly, Polka—Misses Stewart, Zachry and Thompson. Next a charade, “Tho Me’] clnnic'i Daughter," a piece of rich beauty. Next charade, “The Minister’s Guests," this buruted up grand melee; the audience seemed as if they would burst with laughter. If all ministers are treat ed like this one it is no great wonder that “ The Har vest is Gfeat and the Laborers few." After this, music by Misses Thurston and Thompson. Then came the address by Col. Edgar H. Orr, ot Atlanta, a young law yer of considerable repute, and a son ol our State School Commissioner, lie waa introduced by G. W, Gleaton, Esq. The speaker then announced as his. Theme Reading. Ho then proceeded in a very elabo rate manner to show the advantagrs derived from a close perusal of literature. One advantage was, it cul tivates the imagination, also the heart. Another ad vantage was, it wai a eource of pleasure and relaxa tion. He then proceeded to tell hoic we should read; First, not too fast, giving time to reflect, to separate the chaff from the wheat, the good from the evil, uot believing nor disbelieving all we read. Anything worth reading is worth remembering, Next, What we should Read. This, he said was a hard question. First, we should read tbe Bible; next, II tory. What would the world be without History? We should understand the history of other Nations, as well as our own. Next, that class of literature under the general head of Miscellany—such as newspapers, periodicals and magazines. Here the speaker paid a gioiflng tribute to the Press of the country. Next, fiction—such as novels, romances, etc. He then pro ceeded to seperate the good from tho bad; he enume rated among the good the famous works of Dickens one lifts up snd ennobles man; the other, such yellow-backed fiction lowers man to a level with brutes; drags him through all low haunts of vie through barred prisons Ac. Then last, but not least, we should read poetry such as Shakespeare, Byron and Moore. Upon the whole, Mr. Orr gave us a well-timed speech, creating quite an impression on all who were so foituuate ■ to heir him. All pronounced Mr. Orr a young mar ability, “a chip off the old block.” After this, the exercises for the evening closed. T. J. B.

The profoundest silence was kept, showing to what a high degree it was appreciated. We were particularly struck with tbe oratory of the speaker—his articulation being very flue. Wo regret our inability to give you a more graphic account of tlie sermon. I will only add that all went away deep ly impressed with what they had eecn and heard. After the sermon Mr. Hardin delivered tho addreis to the graduating class, consisting of Misses Angie Bostwick and Hessic Scott—only'two. This is ac counted for from the fact that the College has only been in operation two years. We will not attempt any description of tbe two young ladies that graduated for we could not do them justice. I will only say that mortal eyes never beheld two lovlier or more beautiful youDg ladies. After the address Rev. Mr. Bradshaw, of Covington, led in prayers, aod the crowd dispersed, all proclaim ing that this had been a “grand gala day” for Conyers. Tbe audience was one of the largest and most intelli gent ever assembled in the county. Monday’s exercises wero opened by some delightful music. Rev. Mr. Hardin then led in prayer. Then came the reading of compositions, as follows: 1st. Vacation—Miss Alice Lee. 2d. The Death of the Flowers-Miss Emma Oaks. She spoke loud and articulated so distinctly that those farthest off could understand. She taught an import ant lesson to man by the Death of Flowers. 3d. No Royal Road to Honor—Miss Emma Shipley. 4th. I’m my Mother’s Little Girl—Miss Miuerva Hurst. 6th. Music. Gth. Tho Itum .Seller—Miss J.aula Reid. 7th. Twilight—Miss Ella Davidson. 8th. The U»eful and tho Useless Lady—Miss Dallie Smith. 9th. Music. In the absenca of Miss Thurston, tho Music Teach er, the music was splendidly discoursed by the Muses Shipley. We dislike to personate, but feel that it would be injustice if wo did not speak of the mannery delivery of Miss Davidson, whioh was very good. She spoke with boldness and with intrepidation. Mias Dallie Smith also had a good composition plete with sense and wisdom, plainly setting forth the differences between a useful and useless lady. The day’s entertainment was very agreeable to all present. MONDAY night when the curtaius were raised, there was revealed t( your reporter’s eyes the loveliest sight ever beheld his eyes literally drank in tbe scene at one glance There had been a great many people ip town all day, and the crowd was very large. We noticed among the assembly Miss Winburn, of Augusta, Miss Stallings and others of Covington. * The performance waa given by tho “Evans Society,’’ a literary society formed by tho young ladies of the College, aud, as I understand, named in honor of that distinguished military and Christian son of Georgia, Gen. C. A. Evans, of Atlanta. The exercises were commenced with music by Mrs Thurston, Miss Thompson, the Belle of Thomaston, and Mr. T. M. ArtaisU-ad (erroneously called Tom Alexander in your Sunday's issue). Next came the flalrtatory, by Miss Dana Shumate. After this, music and tong— “8w<oteat"—by tbe So ciety, which would have driven off ths blues from a mnltitude. They were greeted by loud and cod- tin usd applause. Music—“Revel Polka." Tha next ou docket is “Woman's Rights." tcreating discussion, which frequently brought down tbe bouse. ▲11 aetad their parts spl ndidljr, aapecteliy Miss Emma Shlply.
