Mel drlni— I The Prlxe* Awnrded. Athens, Ga., June 6.—The most brilliant commencement exercises in the history of Lucy Cobb Institute came to a cl >se lust night. The graduation exercises were brief and simple, bufc none the less at tractive. The stage was beautifully deco rated, among other things being the lovely tapestry painting of Cinderella by Miss Funnie Meldrim of Savannah. The graduates were gowned in white and pink organdie, the full graduates in white and the eclectics in pink. Hon. P. W. Meldrim of Savannah deliver'd the literary address, speaking of “Ponia” of the “Merchant of Vendee. “ He said in conclusion: “My real object has been to impress upon you the great and controlling thought that Portia is to-day a living, breathing woman. In the days when, Venice sat in state, throned on her hun dred isles, there was but one Por.D, bur* now beneath skies as bright, there aie many Portias. Upon every field human I endeavor brave, virtuous and s;df-reliant women are waging life's battle. Many of them bear the cypress while others wear the laurel. The right of woman to be edu cated had in Socrates its first 'and ablest advocate, a right which to-day many of the foremost universities of the world recognize, a right that found its per fect demonstration in the lact that comparatively recently there went forth from a great English university a woman whose paper on the Roman law was held by the examiners to have been the ablest ever presented by a student of either sex in that institution. If from the study of the life of “Portia,” there is one lesson more beautiful than another which I have learned, it is that though sho had won honor and high praise standing in the dudal court and speaking as no one has ever spoken be fore or since, that she turned away from the glare and blaze of the fierce public light that fell full upon her in the scene of her splendid triumph and with the wo man's love and the wife’s devotion, went back to Belmont, to husband and to home. Yes, fair young Portias, there is a light in the home, be it ever so humble, that comes from the throne of God and crowns the wife and mother with a halo that sanctifies and glorifies her. All the pomp and vanity of this world, all the smiles of throned monarchs, all the admiration of all the courts is not worth the simple love of one honest man. And now ’’Fair thoughts and hours attend you.” The Prin** Awarded. Mrs. M. A,. Lipscomb announced the fol lowing awards of prizes: Art. Miss Fannie Meldrim of Savannah.
