SUNDAY MORNING, AUG. 16,1868 [Ooirespondenee New York Times. Oommenoement at the Georgia University. Athens, Ga., August 5,1868. Commencement, which begun on Snnday, the 2d inst., ended this evening at the Uni versity of Georgia, which is situated in this charming and beautiful town. Crowds of people from every part of the State, inter ested by relationship or friendship iii the career of tffe students, anxious to obtain a few days’ relaxation from the cares and re sponsibilities of every day life, and partake of the generous hospitalities and festivities which the good citizens of Athens offer to their friends on such occasions, filled every public and private house, and ever since the exercises commenced there have been “sounds of revelry by night,” driving and riding by day, dining and lunching and breakfasting in all the hours not devoted to listening to the public exhibitions in the chapel, of the Sophomore declaimcrs on Monday, of the Juniors and the address of Hon. Thomas Hardeman to the two literary societies on Tuesday, and of the Seniors, the valedictory addresses, the conferring of degrees, and the Baccalaureate address on to day (Wednesday). Os the Board of Trustees, wlto absolutely control the pro ceedings and government of the University, there was a very large attendance this year. The President of t*»e Board, the venerable Wilson Lumpkin, twice Governor of Geor gia, ex-United States Senator, &c., was not present, owing to feeble health, the result or old age and infirmity. He lives in Athens, and is universally venerated and respected as well on account of his long and distinguished public service, as of liis private worth and purity of life. He is the elder brother of the lamented Chief Justice, Joseph Henry Lumpkin, who died last year. Os the notabilities present, Governor Cobb, Hon. Robert Toombs, the newly elected United States Senator, 11. V. M. Miller, Judge Eugeni us Nisbet, Hon. James J icksou, and Hon. James L.Seward are the best known outside of Georgia. Considering the straitened circumstances of the University since the war, the order of Gen. Pope forbidding the payment of the interest due by the State on its debt to the College (lately revoked by Gen. Meade,) and the poverty of the people generally, the con dition of the College is wonderfully pros perous. The number of students of all classes amounts to 300, and the prospect is that next term it will be largely increased. The Faculty consists of the Chancellor, Rev. Andrew A. Lipscomb, D. D., and a full corps of able Professors ; and the Trustees have recently added to the number by found ing"# chair of Modern Languages, and ap- I Squares. 1 Week. j ~ ■|2 Week*. ■ 3 Week*. ’ 1 Month. 2 Month* 3 Month* 4 Months 6 Month* 6 Month*. pointing adjunct Professors of Belles Let tres and Mathematics. The Law School attached to the University, under the admirable direction of Mr. William L. Mitchell, one of the ablest lawyers in the State, is every prosperous, and promises to be still more so. Thece is also a High ffsfcilY*? 1 anlM YiMlL l ‘t Pot lege, b> which all the Softools ana vtmonk deplrtmontr, are under the control of the Chancellor, who devotes all his energies of mind and body to promote the efficiency and perfection of all. Dr. I.ipscomo’s Commencement Sermon was one of the greatest specimens of pulpit oratory I ever heard. lie took for his text Luke, chapter i., v. 2ft, and from the story ofZacharlas and the Angel, exposed the dangers of skepticism and unbelief, oras he termed it, “emotional skepticism” of the kind expressed in the writings of John Stuart Mill, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and “ George Eliot.” To tin ordinary audience, on ordinary occasions, the Chancellor’s dis course would have seemed rat her too meta physical and abstruse, but before the most refined and enlightened congregation which could be assembled in the State, and at the seat of learning on an occasion especially devoted to the exhibition of the progress of high education, the sermon was admirable, and will be long remembered by those who heard it. On Monday the Sophomores had the day to themselves. Seventeen declaimed for the gold medals, and “Osmond’s Dream,” “Spartacus to the Gladiators,” “Grattan’s Invective Against Cory," “ Rioir/.i to the Romans,” and “ Cataline’s Defiance," were rendered again as they will be next year and every year hereafter, and as they have been every year in the past. The declama tion was not strikingly good. It was mod erately so. The deelaimers of “ Grattan’s Invective” and-“ The Maniae" carried off the first and second gold medals. The heavy rain in the afternoon compelled the postponement of Mr. Hardeman’s address to the Phi Kappa and Pemosthenean So cieties until Tuesday afternoon. Tuesday morning was devoted to the exhibition of the orators of the Junior Class. There were twelve siieakers, and they acquitted themselves remarkably well. They exhibit ed culture, taste, and rhetorical finish. In the evening Mr. Hardeman’s speech attract ed a large audience. It is to be stated that Mr. Hardeman represented the Macon Dis trict in Congress before the war, was a prominent Whig, has since been Speaker in the House of Representatives in the Geor gia Legislature, and is head of one of the largest cotton and commission firms in the South. Mr. Hardeman’s subject was the “Battle of Life,” and Ids aim was to show how, from the cradle to the grave, all was struggle and strife, how this was so from the creation to the present hour, and how everything animate and inanimate in na- ture, ideas, customs, policies, systems, par take of the. same context and ifi'P subject to the same revolutions and disturbances. For richness of imagery, for redundance of flower and figure, for comprehensive allu sion to everything, from a lady’s toilet to the piauetary system of Galileo or the phil osophy of Rousseau, I have never heard auything equal to it. It was the “ high fa intin’’ raised to the Nth power and kept t\t that degree of tension for an hour. The wit, sarcasm and humor, particularly in the hits against the present fashions for ladies’ dress, were admirable and were loudly ap plauded by the ladies. To-day, Commencement Day, the Seniors made their speeches, and, except that they were much too long and too many of them, they were exceedingly Creditable to the talent and skill of their authors. 3jany of them exhibited a great deal of profound thought, varied information, and considera ble oratorical power. But they were too long No orator or orators on earth could fix the attention of a mired audience from 10, a. m., to 3, p. m., ill the dog-days, in a crowded chapel. After the speaking the degrees were delivered to the graduates of the University proper and the law school, and the honorary degrees of D. D. and LL.D. were conferred upon the Rev. Mr. Fulton, of the Episcopal Church in Colum bus, Georgia, and upon Judge Nisbet, of Macon. These high degrees are very rarely bestowed by the University of Georgia— In this instance, however, they were very worthily bestowed. Mr. Fulton is one of the most eminent and exemplary divines in America, and Judge Nisbet, ex-Judge of the Supreme Court, stands at the head of his profession in the State, esteemed and ad mired by all who know him. AUGUSTA, (Ga,) SUNDAY MORNING, AUGUST 16, 1868 The desire was expressed by some to take advantage of the (great crowd in Athens, and of the large number of prominent men present at the time, to have a political meeting and political speeches. Both the Trustees and the Democratic Club opposed the desire, on the wise ground that the Uni versity exercises had nothing to do with politics, that politics should be rigidly ex cluded from the College, and that those whose duty it is to protect the interests and govern the affairs of the institution, should abstain from political matters while en gaged in the duties for which they came together. The wisdom of this course can not be too highly commended. In old times it was always the custom to give the negroes a holiday ou Commence ment Day, and large crowds of them from the towns and adjoining counties used to come here and enjoy themselves in and around the College Campus. They con tinue, as freedmen, their custom as slaves. Thousands of negro men, women and chil dren (locket! hither this morning. At about 2 o’clock they formed a procession at the lower end of the town, and, headed by the loudest brass band lever heard, they passed the College in the midst of ttie speaking, and with uproarious shouts proceeded to the colored school, where the Freetlmen’s Bureau Agent, and a Mr. Robinson, from Oglethorpe comity, addressed them at length upon the “ issues of the day” and the “ state of thecountry.” There was no disturbance, however, not even'aiigry words. I saw but little drunkenness, and therefore, those who had drank more “corn-juice” than was prudent, were good-humored and jolly, rather than cross or combative. There was a very severe storm of wind and rain on Monday, the 3d inst., which did considerable damage to the fences and growing crops. Os the actual extent of the damage, or of the area of country visited by the storm, I have no precise information. Quondam. [ftiom the “ Philosophy of Eating,” hy Dr. Bellows! published by Hurt A Houghton. What to Eat. The author gives the following classification of food : First—Carbonates ; that class which supplies the lungs with fuel, and thus furnishes heal to the system, and supplies fat or adlpoise sub stances. Second—Nitrates; that class which supplies the waste ol muscles. Third —Phosphates ; the class which supplies the bones, the brain, and the nerves, and gives vital power, both muscular and mental. We subjoin a portion of one of the many valuable and instructive tables In the volume, exhibiting an analysis of different kinds ol food In their natural slate : Carton- Phot- Nitrate*. ates. ph ales.

The author speaks as follows of the daily amount <>f food necessary for man : Animals have been fed on pure starch, or sugar or fat alone, and they gradually pined away anil died ; and the nitrate? in all the fine flour bread which the animal can eat will not sustain life beyond fifty days; but others fed on ii(limited flour bread would continue to thrive tor nn indefinite | -riod. It is immaterial whether the general quantity of tood be re duced too low, or whether either of the muscle making or heat producing princi ples be withdrawn while the other is fully supplied. In either ease the effect will lie the same. The animal will become weak, dwindle away nnd die sooner or later, according to the deficiency ; and il food isoaten which is deficient in either principle, the appetite will demand It in quantity till thedeflelentele.inentis supplied. All tlielood beyond the amount necessary to sup ply the principle that is not definite, is not only wasted but burdens the system with efforts to dispose of It. Food, therefore, containing the right proportion of heaters and muscle makers is not only best but most economi cal. ft * * In Bost< u, aud probably in all American cities, a largo part of the expenses of the table are butter, superfine Hour and sugar, neither of which contains enough of the inurcie or brain feeding element to sustain file over fifty days, as lias been proved by experi ment. with flour, while butter and sugar would not sustain file n single month without food. As fir as we have articles ol food deficient In carbonates, we can use, without loss, butter or sugar to supply the deficiency ; but most of our national food, both animal and vegetable, con tains a duo propotlon, and if with them we use butter and sugar they cannot be appropriated by the system, and ore therefore lost. All meats, fat aud lean together, oil groin and milk, contain oil the carbonates that ore needed, or cun I>e used, to furuish heot in moderate weath er. AH the butter or sugar, therefore, that is added to either ot these common articles of food, as they are used, in making cakes, cus tards, pies, etc., are not only lost but by adding too much fuel increase the tendency to inflam mations, embarrass the stomach, and Induce dyspepsia, congestion obstructions, etc. With beefsteak, or uuy other lean meats, or fish, or potatoes, or any green vegetables, or fried beans, op peas, aotpe oily substance seems to be needed, as all tlipse urllcleware deficient in carbon, and in common use we have the choice between lard, swept oil, or butter, or perhaps lat pork, all of which are precisely alike in chemical construction, and that one is most wholesome which is best relished* Sugar is needed with the acid fruits and ber ries, and especially with apples, which iu New JT.ngland arc the most valuable of all fruits, either with, or without cooking, aud which, with Bugar, furnish excellent fpoii, especially iu Win ter and Spring, when other if nit ganopt bp find. But to find a good use for supotfitie flour, out of which hag been taken nine-tenths of its food for muscle or brains is exceedingly difficult, indeed, impossible, in health; and it can only bp Useful iu disease when the irritability of the stomach Os bowel? forbids the use of their nat ural stimulant, just aa inflamifiaticm of the eye makes it necessary to exclude the light. The di ctor’s recipe (or malting natural bread is ns follows; “Bread, light, sweet, delicious and eminently wholesome, may be made by mixing good un bolted wheat meal with cold water, or milk il preferred, making a paste of proper consist ence, which can only be determined by experi ments, pouring or dropping it quickly into a fipated pan, and placing it ffuickly in a hot oven and baiting ip as spoil as possible without burn ing The heat of the oypp and pap suddenly coagulates the gluten ol the outside, which re tains the steam formed within, mid each parti cle of water being interspersed with a particle Ol flour, and expanded into steam, separates the particles into cells, and being retained by the glufun, Which is abundant in this natural flour, till it is cooked, Miff jfiass regains porous nnd digestible, and, containing no carbonic acid gas, is wholesome when eaten immediately, and, of course, equally 90 on Incoming cold." Death of an Indian Frincess.—Wan-ne pe-wir.k, (“Pretty Bird”) daughter of “Dandy,” the bead chiel of the Winnebagoes, died on the 4th instant, to injuries sustained in the rescue' of her child at the LaOrosee depot, in Wiscon sin. Her injuries rendered amputation neces sary, but as she would not submit to the opera tion her life could not be saved. Fonr days of mourning ceremonies were held by the Winne bagoes over the remains. ISTew York Ooltrmn.
