Hr. Nell Warner and Miss Grace Rawlinson gave an entertainment at the Academy last evening, consisting of representations of the cottage scene from the Lady of Lyons, the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet, and the courtship scene from Richard III. Mr. Warner's fine and spirited acting are well known to onr readers, and served him In good stead In spite of all the disadvantages at? tendant upon the presentation of* isolated and detached scenes. Miss Rawlinson ls pleasing In appearance, and her reading ls graceful and sympathetic. Mr. Warner read Poe's "Raven" with considerable effect and truthful? ness; and "the performance was concluded with the admirable parlor comedy of "Delicate Ground.'' The part of "Alphonse" was, of J course, dispensed with, but Miss Rawlinson as "Pauline" and Mr. Warner as "Sangfroid" were very successful. CLUBS AND STARS.-Washington Daniels, arrested for disorderly conduct upon the premises of Frank Boyce, In Tradd street, was referred to a trial justice for prosecution.

THE CBRESTOMATBIC COMMENCEMENT.-The commencement exercises of the Chresto? mathie Society of. Charleston College took place last evening, at the College Chapel, in the presence of a crowded array of youth, beauty and Intelligence, which did honor to the Interesting occasion. The Rev. J. H. Elliot', opened the proceedings with a prayer, after which the anniversary orator, Mr. Frank W. Capers, Jr., was Introduced by Mr. N. M. Porter, the president of the society. In a very neat and eloquent speech, enhanced ?by an easy delivery, the youthful orator set forth the advantages accruing to the youth of the col? lege from the society, and spoke in glowing terms of reason as the distinctive feature ol man. In conclusion he attacked the theory thai reason ls the only perfect evolution of | Instinct, and sat down amid a burst of ap? plause. The Rev. James W. Miles, the commence? ment orator, was then introduced and spoke upon the unity of language. He discussed the remarkable character of the Sanscrit, the Indo-European family of languages, and showed how the latter differentiate only In cognate sound. The learned and fascinating speaker kept the attention of his audience riveted for more than an hour, while he poured iorlh his varied treasures of research upon this interesting subject. The diplomas were then delivered to the graduating class by the president of the so? ciety, who delivered his Latin address inn dis? tinct and emphatic manner. The selection by the Boclety of Mr. J. Bich man Chlsolm to deliver their valedictory ad? dress, was a well-merited tribute to the ora? torical gifts of the young speaker. It would be bard to speak of his touching farewell as highly as lt deserves. It is but just to say that his effort was singularly felicitous, that the grace of bis manner was only equalled by the happiness o? his language, and that belore the echo of his last vale had died in the hall, a storm of enthusiastic applause burst from the entire audience. Then came music from Mul? ler's band, which had varied the exercises by its Btrains, and the benediction followed. The occasion reflected credit npon the society, and wtfi long be remembered by those who were j THE CITY FATHERS.

A LIVELY HOUSE.-Monday night two Jolly tars on pleasure bent wandered into the house of Samuel June, in Elliott street, and being both intoxicated speedily got into a quarrel with the proprietor, and began to smash np and throw everything about in the rabat pro? miscuous manner. They were arrested and fined, the lesser offender one dollar and tbe greater two dollars, for their fun. CLUBS STILL TRUMPS.-Yesterday morning, the case of Policeman Grant, charged with striking a young man on Sunday evening with his club and severely wounding him, was In? vestigated before the chief of police. The testimony of several witnesses proved that tbe young man was drunk and very obstreperous, and that Grant tried to arrest .him without as? sistance. That the young man resisted, and while being forced off tore the policeman's clothes, and struck him heavily in the mouth and in other places. This bad compelled Grant to use his club to secure his prisoner, a large crowd having gathered, and a disturb? ance being threatened. lu view of these faclB, the chief discharged the case. The wounded man ls doing well, and all apprehensions In re? gard to his condition are at an end. THE STOKES MASS MEETING-How rr BEGUN AND How IT ENDED.-Tue call upon the people of Charleston to assemble and bear a political speech from Edward F. Stokes, graduate, Ac, Ac, In the City Square, last evening, received a very niggardly response. In fact, lhere was no meeting at all, and the square was as quiet as usual. Nothing daunted, the would-be public speaker procured Mitchell's brass band and swept through the streets to the Bound of martial music This took. At first but a few errant darkles Joined the procession, but these Increased rapidly In number?, until about nine ! o'clock a large crowd was following the music The dusky procession, thus gath, ered from the highways and byways, finally turned into the City Square, and Stokes, ascending the steps of the Fire? proof building, began his harangue to a curious motley assemblage, all wide-awake for fun, and consisting mostly of colored boys. He announced himself as a Democrat, [loud whoops.] He had no confidence in the Beform movement, and had run against, [successive hooting? and yel?ngs.] Not finding this theme attractive, the speaker branched off into a broader field, and announced that Grant could not be elected. The enthusiasm or dis? gust of the crowd now could not be re? strained, and perceiving their vicious incli? nations iLe lieutenant of the police went ap and suggested to the discomfited ora-j tor that he bad better leave. The speaker concurred, and aided by the officer effected an exit through the Jostling and infuri? ated crowd, and made his way in safety to the Guardhouse. The assemblage were now in a bad humor, and showed every symptom of a row. Seeing this, the police were or? dered out and the public square was soon cleared. Mr. Stokes is hardly equal to "rullDg at will that fierce Democracy," and it will probably be some time before a "National Democrat" will again risk a political speech before an impromptu Charleston mass meet? ing._ Hotel Arrivals -Hare h 5.
