The commencement exercises of the Car olina Collegiate Institute ennui oil' on last Friday night, and consisted of speeches !>\ the young men and 'noys, and the delivery of premiums to thc successful contestants in oratory. Thc large chapel hall was prettily decorated with festoons of ever greens, and at thc appointed hour a large assemblage of ladies and gentlemen attested their appreciation of thc institution and their interest In thc occasion by putting in an appearance, despite the intensely wann weather. The Anderson Palmetto Laud contributed t<> the enlivenment and pleas ure of the occasion hy discoursing sweet music at intervals during ; 'ie evening. At i.all-past eight o'clock Prof. Ligon opened the exercises of thc evening hy re questing Kev. J, E. Carlisle, of thu Metho dist Church, to lead thc assemblage iii pray er, at the conclusion of which he announ ced that the commencement exercise- tliis year would consist of speeches by tho young men of the school contending in thr"c classes for three premiums, as follows: Fur tho lirst class thc premium was three dol lars; tor the second class thc premium was five dollars, ?ind for the third class thc pre mium was icu dollars, which would he awarded upon the judgment of a committee of three gentlemen, who would sit in thc audience and give to each speaker such rank us they might see proper, marking with ten as a maximum and zero as a min imum. After the speeches were concluded tlie three gentlemen composing the com mittee would retire and award the premi ums to the speaker in each class receiving the highest aggregate mark. He began with the first class, und intro duced llvo little* hoys, who evinced a won derful ilegrec of proficiency for their tender age, and were very frequently applauded by tlie audience, who seemed to sympathize with ano* ndinire thc. little fellows very much. The speakers of the second class, eunsisting of thirteen larger hoys, were next introduced, and acquitted thctnsolvcs in a remarkably creditable manner, so much so that some five or six of them stood almost together in the score, and the award was made on less than half a mininer over the three next speakers in a score of twenty five. The speeches of this class were grace - fully delivered, and the members of the class showed thorough training, which promises for them much success in the art of delivering public addresses in later years. Thc speakers of thc third and higher cla-s, consisting of nine young men, were intro duced last, and acquitted themselves in more than a usually creditable manner. The contest between them was close and intensely exciting to Hie friends of the yoting gentlemen, and it was a matter of various conjecture as to who would receive the prize. At the conclusion of the speaking, tho committee of judaes-rconsisting of Messrs. E. M. Ruckcr, K. L. Parker and E. 1!. Murray-retired, and in a short time re turned, whereupon Col. Ruckci, in a short and appropriate nddress, delivered tho prizes a's'follows : For the lir.-t class, Master Marshall Ligon ; for the second ( lass, Mas ter Robbie Ligon : for tho third class, Mr. N. A. McCully. ,. , Thc exercise- of the evening displayed much system and thorough training on thc pnrtof'Prof. Ligon and his assistants, and is the highest testimony that can bu offered of the efficiency of the instruction and dis cipline attained at this li litlltion.
