The Annual Com ruo nc o me nt Exercises A Pleasant and Interesting Occasion. Tho Fourth Annual Commencement Exercises of tho Anderson Female Soml nary last Friday is pronounced by all aa having been a most pleasant and interest ing occasion. Indeed, it is the opinion of many that the exorcises wore far ahead ol any Commoncemont of this Somlnary In formoc years. Tho pupils, togother with the friends and patrons of tho Seminary, looked forward to tho occasion with no little anticipation of iuterest and ploasuro, and we verily believe no one was disap pointed, as the occasion was a success throughout. As previously stat6d, tho Baptist Church had been gonorously tendered Gen. Ayer in which to hold the exorcises, for on former occasions tho Sominary building had proved inadoquato to ac commodate tho crowd in attendance. At tho appointed hour Friday morning the Church, which in ono of tho most ample buildings in tho city, was well lilied by the pupils, friends and patrons of thi Seminary. Tho exorcises consistod chiof ly of reading tho reports of the result o tho examination of tho various class?? interspersed at intervals with somo excel lont music by tho pupils on the piano ant' organ. The institution graduated nc pupils this year, though a numbrr of tm pupils evinced very high attainments ir their classes. Every class bad nndorgom a thorough examination, and lt <vas our prising, as well as gratifying, to sei wha a degree of proficiency many r,ad at tamed. After these exercises w>.rj con eluded, un invitation was extended to al to visit the Sominary buildings and view the drawings and paintings of the art pu pi?s.

A platform, whlc had boen erected botwoen tho pulpit an pew, was beautifully and tastefully dect rated with bright flowers and verdal avorgreens. Resting upon the two froi bornor posts of tho platform, ton < twelve feet high, was a beautiful aroh< frame, completely covered with flowe and evergreons, in the mids!, of which, i well formed loiters, ono could read "Ai ?07BOU Fe rn a-! o Seminary." in the re: of this, suspended from the other tv sor uer posts, was tbe motto, "Excelsior The platform and all ita appointmen were simply lovely. We never saw more beautifully decor-?ed stage. Promptly at 8 o'clock the pupils marc 3d into the edifice and took the front ai side pows, which had been resorved f them. By this time every available BOI both on tho floor aud in the gallo rios, w occupied. The orowd in attendance variously estimated at from eight twelve hundred. The exercises wore opened with prayer b. Rev. T. F.
