Editor Enquirer-BunYeeterday wae , the great day of the year to the people of this aeotion, and aa early aa seven o’olook they asm. flowing in from the anrronnd- ing country in awarme. Long before the exeroi.es oemmenoed it wae evident that the ohnrah wonld not hold more than ona- half the peraon. present. The graduating olaas, whioh oontained twenty-fonr student*, waa repreaonted on the platform by twelve .peahen, the ma jority of whioh did exoeedingly well. . The honor, of tha oollega were borne away by Heun. W. W. Lewi.) of Oreone oonnty, first j M. T. Burks, Henderson, Texas, aeoond; B. H. Lewis, Bpsrta, third; Selwyn L. Smith, fourth honor. Among the graduate, known to yoor leaders, we me; mention A. F. Barnett, aon of Col. N. C. Barnett, of Atlanta; J. M. Myers, son of Bev. Dr. E. H. Myers, "of Maoon; W. W. Lewis, eon of Hon. ' 11. W. Lewis, Greensboro j Selwyn L. ..Smith, son of Bev. Dr. O. L. Smith, and H. Stevens, son of H. Btevens, Buena . Vista. The Baeoalanreate Address of Presi dent Smith waa brief, earnest and appro priate, and contained mneh sound advioe to the young men who were so soon to go out into the busy world and assume its duties and responsibilities. Then followed the conferring of the degree of Bachelor of Arts upon the en tire class ; and the degree of Doctor of Divinity npon Bev. Prof. W. O. Ban and Rov. Prof. O. W. Smith, of the Wesleyan Female College, Maoon, and Bev. Brink- ley M. Messiok, pastor of a Methodist ohuroh in Louisville, Ky. ; the degree of Doctor of Laws upon the Bev. E. M. Muvin, D. D., Bishop of the Methodist Church, South, and Bev. J. O. A. Clark, D. D , of Waynesboro, Ga., formerly a professor in this oollege. The conferring of the degree npon Prof. Bass was very timely, a. he has just been elected to succeed Bev. Dr. Myers as President of the Wesleyan Female Col lege, at Macon, an institution to whioh he has moat devotedly and eflloiantly given his best talents and undiminiahad ener gies during the past fifteen years. The annual Literary Addreae to the Phi-Gamma and Few Societies, set on the programme for yesterday afternoon, was delivered by the Hon. Thomas Hardeman, Jr., of Macon,and was attentively listened to by s vast andienoe of ladies and gentle men. Although leboriug under a severe indisposition, the speaker threw an un- naual amount of earnestness and power Into the delivery of his excellent prodoo. tion, in whioh he treated, inoidentally, many subjeola, but in the main sought to ereate in the hesrte and minds of his hearers a higher estimate of the exalted , position and boundless reaouroes of Geor gia, and a deeper and more steadfast in vest in all her future growth and devel- j'.opment. His references to the noble Read of the Btate, and his appeal to the young men not to forsake the grand old ' "Empire Btate” of the South, were elo quent and effective, and oallad forth pro- „ longed and hearty applause. This olosed the oommeooement exeroisee of 1874, and after the benedlotion from the Ups of the able Dr. Loviok Pieros, the vast throng dispersed, to assemble no more un til similar scenes shall call them together .a year hence. At night the various societies of the •college held their sooial levees, and mirth, music and sweet converse made the bants fly past on swift and noiseless feet. .From the seashore to the mountains, the ibeautyand chivairy of Georgia was as- isembled. Savannah, Augusts, Maoon, Atlanta and smaller dtles contributed to sweU the ro^ki of the reigning beUes. The midnight hour found many of the more susoeptible belles and beanx stUi lingering about the classic HaUsof the Phi Gamma and Few Societies, reluotant to bid adieu to familiar aoanas and dearer friends. It will be gratifying to you numerous Methodist readers, among whom ire many of the honored alumni of this iustitntion, to know that the prospects and condition . of Emory College are bright and enoour- The present oommenoement has rn that President Smith and his asso- t have kept np end improved the lit- r standard, while Bishop Pieroe, with accustomed seal and success, has ed the financial matters of the Col- upon a substantial basis. Nearly ten nd dollars have bean given or dged, during the past few days, to the lowment of professorship* and the otion of the proposed new chapel and ory. These buildings, with the smaller chapel for religious aervices, which ia now nearly completed, will be fluisbed and ready for use within the next twelve months—two handsome build ings bnve been finished and ocoupiod du ring the past year—and from that period, it is hoped, a higher and more gloilons career will dawn upon this venerable end time-honored institution, who: e graduates have filled, and many of them still occu py, exalted public stations, er stand forth upon the foremost towers of Zion as faithful preachers of the Gospel. We oannot bring to a dose our hasty and brief letters from this point, imper fect at they have been in mamv other re spects, without making a public acknow ledgment of the unbounded and unwea ried hospitality of the good people of Oxford on this oeeeaion. Oar own thanks are due President Smith, Dr. Callaway, and Prof. Stone, for favors' shown us in our editorial espsefty. ’ But Yrf the latter gantlemau, whose kindness of heart and generous hospitality are proverbial, we are deeply indebted, through our young friend, Mr. Don Q. Abbott, for a must delightful homo during our stay here There are fow nobler specimens of tho purest type of an exalted womanhood than MrB. Prof. Blobs, whose daily (lo- meatio life so beautifully exemplifies the doctrines of Christ which her now sainted father, Bishop Capers, made so attrac tive by his eloquence of apeook and holiness of life. Nor is it strange that snoh a mother should have growing np abont bar daughters whose own characters are being rightly moulded and developed by the gracious influences that flow from a quiet and oon soientious discharge of her maternal du ties. Well were it for the future of our country, not to speak of its present needs in this respect, if there were more anoh noble, old-fashioned mothers, and well- trained and useful daughters. Long shall we remember their Madness to as, and never shall we lose from our heart the sweet Influence that gathered around it from the beanty and holinesa of this family eircle. Sidney Hebbebt.

Bullwms Descended. Sabatooa, N. Y., July 27.—Professor Donaldson and his balloon oame down abont eight miles north of this place at 6 p. M. Saturday. New You, July 27.—The following is a portion of tbe Tilton croae examination before the Beecher inveetigaling commit- xsittee i “Have yon not frequently asserted the parity of your wife 7" “No; I have always had a strong tecta nioal use of words; I have always UHed words Hint conveyed thot impression; I have taken pains to aay that she was a devoted, ohristian wo- That necessarily oovered the otb er, as he took it. I do not think it cov ered the whole. I have laid that Elisa beth waa a tender, deUosta, kindly, ohtis- tlsn woman, which I think she is." “Have y*u not stated that aba was as pnro as an angel 7” ‘No; I have not sought to give Eliza beth a good charaotor. I bava always wanted to do so. I think she deserves a good character. I think she is batter then moat of us—better than I am. I do not believe, in point of aetnal moral gooduesa—barring some drawbiolm—thst there is in this oompany so whits a aoul as Elizabeth Tilton." To the question as to bis wife's devo tion and purity of life, witness said, she was pure, unless a technical meaning was applied to the word “pnrity." She sought consultation of her pastor, and he took advantage of her orthodox views to make them a net and mesh ia whioh be ensnared her, and for whioh witness held some eontompt whioh no other English words could describe. “You say for a yearnfterwhat you state as Mrs. Tiltotffl confession, she insisted she bud not violated her marriage vows 7" Yea, Elizabeth was in a sort of vapor ous cloud. She was between light nnd dark. She oould not see that it wss wrong. She mentioned to her mother in my presence that she had not dona wrong. She cannot boar to do wrong. A sense of haring done wrong is enough to orash ber. She naturally seeks for her own pesos a conscientious vardiot. She never would havo had these relatious, if she had supposed at the time that they ware wrong. Elizabeth nevor aloes anything that at the time seems wrong. For such a large moral nature, there ia n Isok of s csrtsin balsuoe and equipoise. She has not a will that guides and rastrains, bat Elizabeth never does at any time that which does not havo the stamp of her conscience at the time npun it.” “Do yon say that she did or did not in sist that sho had never violated her mar riage vows?” “She always was saying that it nevor seemed to her wrong, and, ‘Theodora, I do aot see that I have now wronged yon."' Tilton described in detail their improp er caress, which oecurred in the parlor while looking over engravings, Baying that Beecher touched slyly Mrs. Tilton’s lower limbs. t‘ He said of the bed-room aoene: “I wont to tho mom door; Eliziboth oame, and 1 w is surprise J; tha door waa locked; sho was sur'-.sud at finding me; Beecher waa Bitting in a rod-plush rockiug chair, with his vest nubottoned; his feoo color- ed liko u rose when I saw him.” “The explanation was satisfactory to you on that occasion?” “Entirely so; I should have thought nothing of it had I not wondered at tha door being locked. ” “What was the explanation given which yon found satisfactory 7” loving and knowing him to be long an abusod man, and that be still shrunk from hurting others in order to shield himself, I resolved thst this defenoe should be published, and I published it. I did so without his knowledge or consent, and I did right, and stand by tho act of justice to a man who has been wronged, aud to a community that haa tne right to know all tha foots.” Beecher Uets Love Letters by tbe 4'ertl and His Wile Reads Thcui. A gentleman whose official business has lad him to reooive aud open most of Beecher's correspondence, said last eve ning: “In Beeehet’s love letters you would be surprised to know how foolishly soma women write to him. Every once in a while a woman gets a little oraiy and write* to Beecher to tell him how much ■he adores biin. The letters used to go to the Independent office sud Tilton, un der directions from Beeoher, opened them. Many of them he made oopies of, and to-day has manuscripts, names and oopies ot b t.oir, *U oonneoUd with res pectable ladies who have written to Beech er all abont their lov* for him. H* receives love letters by tha ream and cord and tho joke of it ia that aa his wito takes earn of all letters thst oome to him, she reads his love-let ters before be sees them. Mrs. Tilton’i letters to Beecher were very affectionate and enthusiastic, and expressed a deep pervading love in him. Mrs. Beecher read them all before he saw them, and they are ail in her possession now. When the soaodal was first noised about, Mrs. Beaeber looked np tbs letters, and at Mrs. Tilton's request has presented them to her. Yon Csi't Convince Mrs. Beecber that her husband is guilty of anything that Tilton oharges. Sho saya that if aU the women in creation wero to swear that Beeober had been unfaithful, she would not believe them. Tilton Charges that tbe Plymouth Committee Omits the Moat Important Evidence. New Yobz, July 27.—Theodor* Tilton pnbliahcs a card calling the publio atten tion to tha fact that the Plymouth Ohuroh Committee, in it* publication of the testi. mony, omita the most important fact* namely—that the criminality whioh his sworn statement charged upon Beeoher and Mrs. Tilton was confessed to him (TiltoD) not only by his wife, but by Beeoher; and furthermore, that it was confessed by her and him toMr. Moulton, as tbe friend and counselor of both ; and still further, that Moulton’s mediation between Beeoher and Tilton was baaed on the one solo fact of this pre-existing criminality between Beeoher and Mrs, Tilton.
