Apropos of tho recent congratulatory notices of tho press upon the honors Co lumbus girls havo recently won, a thought suggests itself. Our friend, Air. Prescott, shares doubly in these complimentary no tices, his two charming daughters, ICIMOS Fannie and Annie, having been tho recipi ents of first honors—tho one at Macon and tho other at Marietta. While much is due to the application and natural gifts of the young ladies themselves, they can but heartily concur with us In giving praise to the preparation thoy received for collegi ate duties—having been instructed solely by Miss Sal lie Mitchell. It is a note-wor thy fact that tho pupils of Miss Mitchell havo been peculiarly fortunate in all con tests for honors. A thorough teacher, she appreciates "The way the twig is bent so tho tree inclines,’’ and hus laboriously fit ted them for the duties of after years. Wo .can point with pride to many instan ces of her success, and wish for her what she richly deserves -continued prosperity. For several years she has conducted a high school for young ladies in this city, each year her patrons becoming more nu merous. Now the school lias vacation, but in tho fall she will commence again under oven brighter auspices. Attache 1 to tho school is a boarding department, under the same roof with the family of her father and mother—Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell. This school is an excellent preparatory school, and wo doubt if there is a better one In the Htate or the South than this, or a more thorough or competent teacher than Miss Mitchell. This is a Columbus institution, built up entirely by a genuine Southern lady. Every patron that has ever had their children at her school will agree with us in what we havo written. The school is, in fact, a pride and an orna ment to tho educational facilities of Co lumbus. A Pico for the l*o&r. Wo learn that there are several poor men who havo been -convicted at this term : of tho Superior Court, and are now work ing out their sentence either on the chain-gang, or in tho State pententiary. It lias occurred to us that if in fact the entire court was illegal, then they must bo hold by false imprisonment. It is fur ther suggested to our mind that justice, and strict justice, would require that these poor devils have their sentence arrested. The fact that thoy have no powerful (?) friends is not a sufficient reason why they bo granted a respite. Homo Ignorant men have been imprisoned, and it looks like the great State of Geor gia, through the proper officers might, upon the court’s own motion, have their sentence removed. If they had friends, thoy might get a respite, but away off' upon the public works, with a pair of striped breeches, and a pick in their hand, they might never know they were Illegally convicted, and that there has been no court held this spring in Muscogee coun ty. Wo hope thoy will at once be notified and grunted tho respite. It may cost the county an additional sum to that largo sum already expended, but give them an equal showing; as wo are going to have a now trial in some cases, let us havo anew trial In all, for all convictions were equally illegal. Another lluggy Nnathi’d. Tho pretty span of horses owned by Mr. Wolfo Moses took into their heads yester day afternoon to tako a little more vigor ous exorcise than that gentleman is in the habit of allowing them to bike, especially when attached to his buggy. Mr. Moses had occasion to quit his vehicle at the lower end of Broad street, and placed a small colored individual in charge of the team, to see that tho animals did no mis chief during his absence. From some cause tho horses became frightened, and the boy, who was holding one of them by tho bridle, offering such slight resistance to their movements, t hey soon got from under ids control and bounded off at their utmost speed. The result of their flight was only a shattered buggy, as there was no person lu it at tho time. That boy ought to havo had moro strength or nerve, by which means he might have controlled tho horses, saved the buggy, and prevent ed Mr. M. from being deprived of ids ride homo this terrible warm weather. It was no doubt a great change in tho programme, but we hope it was borne with as good grace as possible under the circumstances. .Unit Wltn nu linn. The Detroit Free Frees has the following on tho man for whom wo wore searching yesterday: It wasn’t right, and future generations will say that it wasn’t. He came tramp ing up stairs, tossed ids hat on the table, and as he sat down on a chair he carefully remarked: "Suppose you’d like a big item?” "Yes, of course;” replied the lone re porter. "I haven’t been to any other paper with it." he continued, as ho leaned forward. ‘‘l’ve taken the Free Press for twenty nine years, and I’ve walked four miles to give you this item." • "Well, I’m very much obliged, indeed. What is the item?” "Well, you know tho Grand Trunk Junc tion?” “Yes. out here about three miles from the City Hall.” "Well, it was about a mile beyond that. Me and another fellow was coming in on the track. Ho was a stranger, and seemed downhearted and gloomy; said he didn't care two cents whether he liveni or died’” "Poor fellow! Can you describe him ?" "Yes. he was about five feet six, InuUod hair, big foot, coarse clothes, blue eyes and no whiskers. "Well, goon.” "Wo got within a mile of the junction when the express train from the East came thundering along.” "Yes." “And of course wo stepped off tho track." "Yes.” "I wasn’t looking for nor expecting any such thing, you know, for the man didn’t let on nor betray himself by word nor look. If I’d only suspected it, why, 1 could have grabbed him." "Yes, I see.” "Well, we stood facing tho train. 1 was a leetJe ahead of him, and what did he do as the train got within 300 feet of us?” "Hushed on the truck?*’ "No; not that. He made a jump for the rail, kpeeled down, and— " Great blazes, but it was awful!" inter rupted the reporter. "Awful! I guess It was! 1 was never so weak in my life. He deliberately laid his neck on the rail, shut his eyes, and—" “And the locomotive took his head clean off.” shouted the reporter, springing up. “No. As I was eaying, ho deliberately placed his nook on the rail, and held ft there —" "And was mashed!" "No, sir—held it there fora moment and then ” "And was then struck by the pilot!’’ "No, sir, and then he deliberately took it off again, and is now in a saloon around the corner inquiring for a job.” The reporter leaned back and looked at him for a long time. The stranger leaned back and looked at the reporter. Nothing disturbed tho deep silence but the ticking of the clock. By and by the man with Uie item looked up at the skylight, down at the floor, aigl softly slid out into the hall and was gone. Dress Uool Below Coat.

CLOSING EXERCISE* -LAUGH CROWD TN AT TENDANCE—-SPEECHES INCI DENTS, ETC. Macon, July 14th. Dear Times: To-day the Commencement exercises of tho Weslyan Fornalo College, th'e oldest institution of its kind in this country, came to a close. The preceding days have been marked by a series of exhibitions by tho various classes, and by other interesting exercises. The sermon of Bishop W. M. Wlghtman, of South Carolina, delivered last Sunday, is sakl to have been a master-piece of pul pit eloquence. Tho Bishop is one of the most polished orators in the .South. The Triennial Alumnean Address of Ho v. W. P. Harrison, D. D„ formerly of Colum bus, but now of Atlanta, was delivered Tuesday. His theme was the influence of woman on tho progress of tho world. It Is said to have been full of his wonderful research and louring, and to have been presented in that strongly attractive style, so peculiar to himself. The address must have boon a rare literary treat. All who heard it speak of it as a fine production. Tho Soph more and Junior exhibitions are said to have been good. The annual Concert was sllmly attended, on account of a heavy rain. The music was not oa good as could have been wished. An elevation of the musical standard of tho institution would result iu great benefit to it. No accomplishment renders a woman more capable of becoming a queen of society, than a fine musical edu cation. It is to be regretted that most of tho female colleges in our Htato pay so lit tle attention to this important branch of female education. WHAT WE SAW. We arrived in tho city early this morn ing, and iiad the pleasure of attending the exorcises of the last day. Tho graduating classes of this popular institution aro always so large that they are divided into sections, and read at dif ferent times during commencement. The present graduating class consists of twen ty-seven members, and was divided into three sections. We heard only the lasi section; the others read on Monday night and Tuesday morning. Tho preceding sections are said to have done well, al though there is some complaint that most of the subjects chosen wore trite, and worn out. It is not very difficult to guess the themes of about half the compositions of a female college commencement Ixifore you see the programme. College girls love a certain set of subjects with a strong affection, and they will write on these same subjects year alter year, no matter what people say about them. There aro about half a dozen themes that havo real ly been talked of enough, considering their Importance, and if the college girls who will read next summer will omit them, just for a rarity, the public will lx? grate ful. Several poetical quotations have also been thoroughly impressed on the minds of all who have ever attended a female commencement, and if they could bo per mitted to rest a few years, nobody’s po etical fame would suffer, and those who hear tho annual compositions of tho young ladies in this State would be glad. These remarks are, perhaps, not more applica ble to the present commencement than to many others that have occurred at the va rious female colleges in the State since the war. Let us hope that a time will come when it cannot bo said with truth, as we fear it now can, that when you have at tended one fornalo college commencement nothing moro remains to be seen in the same line. An effort of originality, fresh ness and novelty would be hailed with de light by all who bike pleasure in visiting tho annual exhibitions of our female col leges. Wednesday’s exercises. Wednesday morning the Chapel was crowded to hoar the compositions of the last section of the Senior Class. After prayer and music, Miss Mary L. Jackson, of Macon, road a pretty salutatory in verso. She was fortunate in leaving the beaten track and in presenting a produc tion the conception and execution of which displayed originality and thought. Some passages In tho salutatory wore beautiful and worthy the pen of many a more dis tinguished writer of verse. Miss Cora 1. Nutting, of Mocon, road a composition on Life, with a sweet, woman ly grace that was the subject of general comment. Miss Nettie Dunlap, of Macon, asked tho pertinent question. “A Graduate, What Then?" Miss SalHe W. Snider, of Macon, read a poem on “My Classmates,” in which the I>eculiarities, excellencies and follies of each of twenty-seven young ladles wero wittily presented. Tho fair reader was just to all save herself. Wo would like to have written that part of her composition, and are sure wo would have come much nearer the trut h than she did. Miss Kate Keaton, of Texas, read an es say on doubt, In which she contended that it was tho mother of truth. The valedictory to tho audience, under graduates and trustees, was and olive ml by Miss Lillie Johnson, of Cartersvilie, who shared tho First Honor. Sho is said to be a young lady of fine talent. The valedictory to tho class and faculty was delivered by Miss Fannie S. Prescott, of Columbus, who shared the honor with Miss Johnson. Her composition was line, and was delivered so that all could easily hear it. She displayed boldness and orig inality in the treatment of so difficult a task as a valedictory. Miss Prescott has only been in the college a short time, but she has wou an enviable place in tho re gard of the faculty, her classmates and all who know her. She has represented Columbus well, and we hope her course in life may be as happy and successful as her college career has been. While her sister bore oIT tho First Honor at the Marietta Female College, she gained a similar distinction here. Columbus should lx? proud of two such lovely and accomplished daughters After the valedictory President Pass conferred the degree of A. M. on the class of 1860. lie then delivered tin' diplomas to the graduating class. THE BACCALAUREATE of President Boss was remarkably brief, and consisted in tho best advice to the graduating class and warnings not to in dulge in the follies and extravagances of modern times. If all baccalaureates were ►as brief and pointed, audiences would be saved many a boro. “Home, Sweet Home,” was then sung as a "parting hymn. THE ANNEAL ADDRESS was delivered by James H. Carlisle, L. L. IX, President of Wofford College. S. C. His theme was the title of a little volume which has been much read, vizi “The Me morials of a Quiet Life.” Dr. Carlisle treated tho subject in a masterly manner. He is no orator, but he is surely a very profound thinker, ami a learned scholar. His stylo Is very re markablo for terseness and strength. Not one unnecessary word was used in the whole discourse. There was no studied effort at ornament or effect. The fine thoughts of the speaker were presented ixddly, and were clothed in the purest, chastest diction, and the most faultless rhetoric. The main idea was grand, and it was presented in a manner which de lighted all who wore capable of apprecia ting strong thought, pure stylo and ele gant diction. After the address the doxology was sung by the very large congregation, and tlie benediction pronounced by Bishop Wlghtman. CHANGES. Bov. W. F. Cook has resigned his posi tion ns Professor, of Chemistry, and Rev. H. W. Key, son of Dr. J. B. Key, has been elected to fill his place. Mr. Key is well known in Columbus, and his friends will be glad to hear of his election to such an important position. The terms of tho College, instead of be ginning in October and ending in July, will hereafter begin in September and end in J uno. A VETERAN. The venerable Dr. Lovick Pierce is In at tendance on the exercises. This wonder ful man lias attended every commence ment of this institution, save one two years ago. He looks quite feeble. DISTINGUISHED VISITORS. There are a large number of distin guished visitors, among whom are Bishop Pierce, Bishop Wightman, Dr. Morgan, of Kentucky, and many Doctors of Divini ty and gentlemen of State reputation. The city is full of visitors and presents quite a gay appearance. A large number of the ulumulal of the institution are here. The grand alumnian banquet comes off to night. The commencement has passed, and by many it will bo looked back to wi- h pleas ure. On the whole, it was not as good as the similar occasion of the same institu tion last year. The music was not as good as the public expected, and by next year it is to bo hoped great Improvement will bo made in this department. We omitted to state that Miss Kate Ashburn received tiuymly musical diploma awarded. NUISANCES. There were at this commencement two or throe nuisances whose presence ren ders every occasion of the kind disagree able to many in the audience. Chief of all these nuisances is your senseless com mencement appiauder. He struts in armed with his formidable emberreila and until he retires peace and quiet aro un known. He tries to raise a furore of ap plause at the end of every sentence. In the most pathetic portions of the finest es says ho comes down on the floor with both heels and occasionally calls in his hands as auxiliaries. If tho audience ap plauds, ho grows furious in his jo/; he jumps and leaps and yells if the applause is very great. If he fails in his attempts to start a noise lie is not in the least abashed. He has chosen his seat in front of everybody, and he faces the audience if he can. The frowns or comments of those around him arc unnoticed. He glories in the thought that lie is the center of public notice, and cares not a cent if he is the object of public disgust. At every interval lie comes down to his work and keeps the whole Chapel in an uproar. Ho is tho bane of and the torment of all sensi ble people. There is only one doom of which he is worthy, and that is to be seized "vi et armis” and tumbled head long out of the nearest window. Another nuisance Is your incessant talker, whoso musical buzz is heard for hours together, and whose mode of draw ing breath is -a mystery to all who see him—perhaps we should say her. Several minor nuisances are scarcely less annoy ing. but are too insignilieent to be digni fied with a notice. After all, perhaps, these nuisances just spoken of—old subjects, worn out politi cal quotations and “slngiug reading” —are the necessary evils which attend upon the many pleasures of every female Com mencement, aiul we will not complain against the Commencement applauder, however, we cherish an animosity which time can never efface. F. H. 11. Peramiult. Francis Fontaine, Esq., left tho city yes terday, to be gone for u week or ten days. F. H. Richardson, Esq., eity editor of the Times, left several day sago for Oxford, but we heard of him as far north as Chat tanooga, which is on the route to Mem phis. He may be back to-day sometime, but we doubt it. Dr. Key and lady were in the city yes terday. The many warm friends of this favorite pastor were glad to see him back. He leaves to-day to attend commencement at Oxford, lie is a trustee of the College. Rev. Howard Key, son of Dr. Key, has been elected a professor at Wesleyan Fe male College, lie is a young man of good mind, and has nmny line elements of char acter that will make him a succesaful teacher. it Col. Frank Wesself, late of the Enquirer, loft for his old home, Philadelphia, yester day. His family are the city. Returned. The party that went to Auburn, cauio back yesterday. Some of the boys had rod eyes and looked rather -sleepy. Nnyor'i Court. Lucinda Brown and Morey Do non were up before liis Honor for the row near the Georgia Home building. For this little disturbance those ladies (?) of color were fined to tho tune of $3 each. These color ed ladies ought not to clash. Their little hands were not made to tear each others eyes. Among the inmates of the guard-house wo noticed, the other day, quite a number of the sisters. They wero in the cell, over the entrance to which was marked an in scription something like this: “For La dies Only.” Roya Roilting— Wild h Stolen. Yesterday afternoon a number of white boys were in bathing above the City Mills. They piled their clothing on the bank, as boys always do, regardless of what be comes of them, or what may be taken from their pockets. They hod a jolly time In tho water, but Frank Colsey was not so happy when coming out ho found that a thief had filched his watch. The moral of the story is: Boys, sot a guard to watch your clothing while you are performing your ablutions. !*►* Pui*ond. That line dog of Mr. It. W. Lodsinger was poisoned by some rascal.

AT COST • * I will sell all my stock of Gents’ Low Cut Calf Skin and Morocco Shoes at cost for cash. J. Marion Estes, jyll-3t 12*2 Broad st. | (SCRAP*. Charity is nevor lost; It may moot with ingratitude, or be of no service to those on whom it is bestowed, yet it ever does a work of beauty and grace upon the heart of the giver. The separation of friends by death Is less terrible than tho divorce of true hearts that have ceased to sympathize, while memory is still recalling what they once wore to each other. Generosity during life is a very different thing from tho generosity in death. One proceeds from genuine liberality and be nevolence, the other from pride or fear. 0 Say nothing respecting yourself either good, bad or indifferent—nothing good, for it is vanity; nothing bad, for that is aflfcctation; nothing indiffcaent, for that is silly. Small means often accomplish great good. Each of us may do something for others, and true sympathy and loving ministry are never lost. This is the season for mad dogs. If your dog begins to act queerly you had better disposo of him or he may dispose of you. Keep your rooms well ventilated. Take the screens away from the fireplace. There is no telling the amount of Injury one of these screens may do. My life! won’t we move when Koely’s motor is ready to puff us along? Tho Sultan of Turkey has eight hundred wives, and every time Brigham Young thinks of it he gives his poor little sixty three partners a glance of contempt and pity. Philadelphia husbands are not allowed the use of night keys, and when the clock strikes ten, if they are not ut home, the grieved wife sobs: "Sarah, hand mo my bonnet and shawl and sword cane!” If any mother has a bad boy she wishes to dispose of, let her send him to this of fice. We will hire a man to steal him, and then start the whole police force to search him. Meantime, we will pay five hundred men at various places to swear they have found the stolen child. In short, we will get up a first-class Charlie Boss sensation. Theso moonlight nights are drawing the young folks out after tea. If that river bank could only tell all that it has heard, what wondrous tales it could unfold. Must Have Ntolen It. Charles and John Williams came to town yesterday with a young steer, which they offofed for sale at ten dollars. The low price excited the suspicion of one of our vigilant policemen, Joines, who took the Williams brothers with the steer to Mon day’s stable. While there the latter made their escape, thus confirming the belief that the ox had been stolen. The rascals said they came from William Paldren’s plantation, near Giennville, Ala. The ox is still at Munday’s stable. Wo trust that the thieves niuy be caught and brought to speedy punishment. It is high time this cow stealing was stopped. A number of cases of similar character have been re cently reported. A. IS. IlUoud. We learn that A. B. Eilaud has been al lowed anew trial by the Supreme Court of Alabama. He was convicted of mur der at Seale, and sentenced to twenty years inprisonment in the pententiary. Mum Hunter’* Plenlo. Wo were not present at tho entertain ment given by Mr. and Mrs. Sam Hunter, at their residence over tho river. From those that did attend, we learn they had a splendid time. There was a large crowd present, and the festivities were kept up till a late hour. All went home happy, and wishing that occasion might bo repeated. The leader of the music, while arranging couples on the floor, caught his toe in a plank and fell, injuring the knee cap. Dr. Palmer was sent for, and announced the patient not seriously hurt, after which the gaity proceeded. •lut In. A largo lot of Crewel and Zephyr, in all colors and shades, at apls dwtf J. J.

We are happy to state that tiiis remedy gives better satisfaction than any article we sell. We have been selling it since 1808, and witnessed many remarkable cures by it. Among others, there was a lady friend of ours who was sallow and sickly until she was twenty-six years old, when she was married. Her husband lived two years and died. She continued in bad health; in fact, she has never been what a woman ought to lie. A few months after the death of her husband she saw vour advertisement, ami came to our store and bought a bottle of your Regula tor from us, and took it according to di rections. It has cured her dbund and well, brought her regular monthly peri ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom ing widow—with tho use of but two bot tles of your Regulator, costing her only three dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without any benefit.
