I'S The Bains and the Crops.?Now that the rain fall for a "little season" is apparently over/ it becomes interest ing to inquire what damage has ret salted to the farming interests of the ^ county, and what are the present condition of the crops in consequence, f Eeports come from almost every secf tion of the county that grain in the fields is very badly injured, and that I the young corn on ibe lowlands has * been, by the freshets, in places literally ruined, and all of it very seriously damaged by the overflow. Another p result of the three weeks of rain is that the cotton is all weed, and as yet yery poorly fruited, and the farmers * everywhere are fearfully behind with crops, and grass, rank and tall, seems to have taken the country. If the good weather continues, however, much progress in crop working will be made during the present week, and ^ good crops may yet be made in this portion of the State. * s * The Pluhe Dkhx axd Ball.?On last Thursday evening almost every man, woman and child in Winnsboro f gathered in the Thespian Hall to witness the drill of the members of the * Gordon Light Infantry for the plume, and a very large proportion of the ^ assemblage was there an tact for the ball also.- Before nine o'clock,:and Br this is early in the summer season, every seat in the hall was occupied, and after just a little J^^ing and less grumbling the prize drill began, and squr.' Xo. 1 and then No. 2 were pat through the manual of arms. It was not long before the squads were thinned , out, and after awhile they were thrown together and the contest, as the numbers decreased, grew more exciting. Before the hour appointed for the ball the contest was over and the judges bad awarded the^plume to SerI* geant J. H. Harden. The much coy eted prize was presented by J. M.

We were glad to he able to attend the closing exercises of the Mossy Dale Academy in the southern portion of the county, and to meet and talk with the kind people of that community. Friday, the 4th of July, was the day appointed for these interesting exercises, and, all the elements seemed to smile approvingly upon the gathered crowd of teacher and pupils and fathers and mothers. By eleven o'clock, in company with the school commissioner, we arrived npon the grounds and found the examination in progress. "We listened with much interest and with some de gree of wonder at the great proficiency of the different classes in the various branches. The examinations were continued for several hours and the interest of the audience never flagged throughout the ordeal. Mr. Thos. E. Bell now has charge of this very flourishing school, and the examinations on the 4th proved Mr. Bell to be a thorough, active and highly competent instructor. To test the progress of the older pupils in essaywriting a number of excellent compositions were read by young ladies and ivanflomon nnftn iho r>finMne!nri fif examination. The following is the programme: _ "Incentives to Culture"?Mr. A. A. McCain. "True Piety and Modesty"?Miss Pet Perry. "Kindness"?Miss Phenie Perry. "A Good Cause^iti&es* a Stout Heart"?Miss CautTW^cnniugs. "Friendship"?Miss Haiti? Leituer. "Saturday Night"?Miss Clara Chap peii. "Does it Matter who Educates a Child?"?Miss Edna Ligon. All of the essays were excellent? thought good and language chaste. This part of the programme over, addresses were made by Dr. John Boyd and C. A. Douglass, Esq. About two o'clock a splendid and very tempting dinner was spread in the grove near the spring, which is convenient to the Academy building. "We enjoyed the repast as did every one. The people of the Mossy Dale community are kind and hospitable indeed, and no one can go in that section of' the county- without seeing and appreciating it. COSUTEXCEMEXT AT EBSKISJE. The Celebration of the literary Societies? The Contests in Essay-Writing and Oratory?The Graduation Oration?Baccalanres.te-.The Anniversary and Alumni Addresses. Messrs. Editors: It was the writers pleasant privilege to be present at the opening exercises'of commencement in this well known institution. It was a wise selection when, the graduating classes elected the Rev. J. T. Chalmers to deliver the Baccalaureate sermon. Long before the appointed hour a large and expectant crowd had assembled in Lindsay Hall to gather instructions from the chosen words of this eminent divine. It was well, for part of tlie crowd at least, that the exercises were held in Lindsay Hail, as tnc cnnrcn could not have seated the audience. After the rendition of a beautiful anthem by the choir, Mr. Chalmers read the 15th chapter of Luke, and invited the attention of his audience to some well prepared thoughts, founded on Col.ii. 10: "And ye are complete in * v n. . i j ~n .mm, wdicu is uie ueuu ui mi principality and power." Man, fresh from his Creator, was complete, but he had fallen?sin had touched the instrument; only discords are heard. There is something in mau of which the counterpart is in hearven. For one hour he held the undivided attention of his audience, and revealed,to them the glorious plan of salvation. With a tongue almost inspired he spoke of a complete Christ and our completion in Him. ' M ' , r EUPHEMUlN". CELEBRATION. _ . ^ One of the most entertaining exercises of commencement was the annual oolAhratinn nf t.hft two liferarv snrifi ties, which took place on Monday night. In the Euphemian Hall a large and appreciative audience had. assembled to witness the presentation of diplomas to the graduates. After a few words of welcome from the president, Mr. M. B. Grier, the programme was taken up and carried out in full. The query, "Should South Carolina have a Divorce Law ?" was ably contested by two members of the senior class. Mr. J. F. Pharr, of Atlanta, Ga., represented, the amrmative, and Mr. T. B. Stuart, of Anderson, S. C., the negative. After consultation, the committee decided in favor of the negative. The presentation of diplomas to the graduates then followed. Mr. S. P? McElroy of the junior class performed this duty with grace and dignity, and was replied to in behalf of the senior class by Mr. T. H. "White, who spoke of the benefits of a literary society to young men entering upon life. xne most important part 01 tiie entertainment to the members of the Society was reserved for the last?the presentation of medals to the successful competitors in the different classes. After a well prepared address, Mr. C. P. Presslv, of the Augusta bar, proceeded to "deliver the medals. The following persons were awarded medals for excellence in the diflerent departments: M. B.

"While the above exercises were in progress in .the Euphemian Hall a no less~appreciative audience had assembled in the spacious hall of the Philomathean Society to witness a similar celebration. The Philomatheans had chosen as their presiding officer F. I. Osborne, Esq., of the Charlotte bar, a young man of prominence, who presided with ease and dignity. He opened the exercises by some appropriate remarks on eloquence, showing by examples from the pages of histow that it was by continued persevernn ^ thai? mo5t men rose to eminence r. tnat greatart. The query, "Resoivc J, that the prize system in schools and colleges is, in its general results, an evil," Wis r.bly discussed by two members of the junior class. Mr. T. G.

Mr. Douglass took as his subject, "Young men?their responsibilities;" He was happy in his selection, for fewyoung men "could have presented to the Society in a better way the responsponsibilities of the rising generation. It was 'the unanimous opinion of the audience that the Society had sho^vn wisdom in her choice of a medal orator. "We congratulate the members on their selection.

Tuesday evening was set apart for the contests in oratory and essay reading between the two societies, but owing to the inclemency of the weath er tbey uad to oe postponed. -^Notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather on the previous evening Wednesday was bright and clear, and and long before the hour for exercises the hall was filled to overflowing- by one of the most intelligent and brilliant audiences we have ever seen assembled ' on Commencement Day. The exercises were opened with prayer by the Rev. "W. T. Mathews, after which Dr. Grier stated that the sophomore orations which were to have nff thp- eveninor before would be omitted, bat that the essays of the juniors would be readin the afternoon.

He spoke of the ministry of Christian scholarship. First, it'was conservative ; it finds in history many lessons, and it has preserved all that is important in* the records of the past. There are principles of truth to be preserved and supported, and as we hand to you the inheritance of our losses, consecrated with tears and blood, we imflore you to hold fast to them. Next, e spoke of it as progressive, battling against difficulties, its direction is on ward. Lastly, It was philanthropic. It protects the weak, and its characteristic is love.

The crowning event of the occasion was, yet to come?the anniversary oration by the Rev. A. Ceke Smith, of Columbia, S.. C. Mr. South is too well known in this place for me to give even a brief summary of his address iind do him justice. With a power of oratory possessed by few men, and a gift of the pen unequaied by any man in the Slate, he held the undivided attention of his audience during the whole exercise. Few men have ever filled the position so ably. All true success, said the speaker, has been achieved, ana is not dispensed by chance. He deserves to be successful who has a mission. No matter what that mission be, if he pursues it faithfully he cannot and will not fail. Failure is a crime, success a virtue. The power to work is the greatest ; success; success represents toil and perseverance. Labor is the best of all endowments, and upon it depends all success. With faith in our destiny, in our mission and in God, with true effort held up by this faith we may yet reach that high destiny to which as individuals and nations we are called.
