As the reading public are well acquainted with the history of St. Mary's, we will not attempt to impart any new knowledge in regard to it? All persons who have ever visited there are well aware of the beautiful and picturesque scenery by which it is surrounded, and we do not wonder at the reluctance with which the young ladies depart from a place whose associations and surroundings are such as to sink deep in the hearts of those who love nature's work, as do those who are taught within thejwallsjof that institution, of which we are proud, and upon which we look with a knowledge of its true merits. The success which has attended the labors of the women, under whose care the institution has been placed, is a true example of what women can do, and with what rewards they are favored for their effort

Ono effect of living in our close highly heated houses through the winter is iu nine persons out of ten, that nature has no opportunity to throw off the poisonous humors of the system. Consequently the Ihrer, bowels and kidneys are inactive and biliousness, constipation, etc., are the result. Kidney Wort acts at once on all these organs, and stimulates them to re* newed action, restoring health and strength. llOwl.

The thirty-ninth commencement which took place yesterday, was attended by over three hundred relatives and friends of the graduates and persons who were interested in some way with the academy. The hall in which their exercises were held was tastefully decorated with beautiful oil paintings, and flowers painted and arranged by members of the school.
The exercises of the day began about nine o'clock with a "Greeting Chorus," from Donizette sung bj' Misses Jeanette Rodgers, Helena McKinney, Jessie Taber. Catherine Doyle, Catherine Burk, Julia Sell null, Emma Sholem, Clementas Thayer, Wood nut Stillwell, Luther Redmon, Anna Ogden, Caroline Bearse, Helen Allen, Maud Smock, Elizabeth Bronillette unci Mary Ilaldeman.
The accompaniments were played by Miss Ferriman, piano: Miss Mary Nestcr, organ Miss Caroline Moran, seraphine.
The audience were next favored with an instrumental duet, Miss Jessie Taber playing the harp and Miss Alice Cullen the piano. The exercise was well rendered and was enjoyed as is all the music, by all in attendance.
The Sunbeam, a scientific recitation, by America Cnle, Margaret Grav, Mary tester, Elizabeth Collins and Georgia Crawford, was truly an exercise worthy of comment, but as the points of the address are so dependent on the arguments and explanations attending them, we can not do the exercise justice by commenting on it. It was excellent and was certainly a credit to the ledics taking part. "A Musical Surprise," which was a bur lesque on modern opera singing, was enjoyed by the audience. It was rich, and caused a grout deal of amusement.
Misses Pressley, Mancourt and Schnull rendered a trio from Faust in a creditable manner.
A poem entitled the "Conqered Banner, was then declaimed by Miss Mary Ward. The poem was written by Father Ryan, and the thoughts which he intended to impart' through his lines seemed to have impressed themselves firmly upon the mind of Miss Ward, who was encored at the end of her exercise in away which revealed the appreciation of her hearers. "The lone harp" was next sung by Miss Emma Sholem, this was followed by an instrumental trio byt- Misses Moran, Cul len and Pressley which was wall given.
Miss Thayer sang a beautiful solo "con' sider the lilies," and was well accompanied on the piano by Miss Moran.
A disquisition "Is the nineteenth century the most enlightened age of the world" by the five graduates, was too long to allow us to give" an account, although it was probably the best exercise of the day, the different arguments were good ftnd showed great ability ofithought, and expression.
A grand march from Faust was next given by the following ladies: Misses Alice Cullen, Woodnut Stillwell, Catherine Burk and Catherine Doyle, pianos Miss Ada Pressley, onran Miss Caroline Moran, seraphine: Miss Jesse Taber, harp Miss Nellie Davis, guitar. The audi ence next listened to a very well writfen Essav by Miss Mary Ward, entitled "Where lies the land to which yon ship must go?" This was truly a fine production. Its poetical composition and the display of imaginary power was such as to be enjoyed bv all lovers of such exercises. The applause which followed her reading showed that her exercise was received'with intense interest. "Affections Wreath," was pn exercise in which all the graduates took part. They marched to the front of the stage, each bearing a boquct of different plants and flowers, emblems of their affection for their teachers and friends, and with speeches in which they expressed their love for teachers and fellow students, and reluctance at leaving their woodland home, contributed their flowers to the wreath.
This was followed by the valedictory by the five graduate?, which was well rendered. After the distribution of laurels and diplomas, the graduates were readj to receive the congratulations of their friends. The sadness with which they care up their beloved school life defies description. After a day spent so pleasantly among the woodland of St. Mary's, the excursionists returned home, well satisfied and pleased with the days* enjoyment.

General Grant.
GALENA, III., June 30.—Notwithstand ing General Grant's denial of the report that lie had pronounced for Hancock, he is daily besieged with telegrams and letters of inquiry on the subject. For the benefit of his friends and the public generally he is desirous of again denying that he ever made the remarks attributed to him and he emphatically asserts that lie has no other intention than to vote and support the Republican ticket at the elec tion iu November.
General Grant and Mrs. Grant will leave to-morrow morning for Colorado,-accom-panied by Mrs. Colonel Fred Grant, of Chicago, and Hon. W. W. Smith, a prominent banker of Washington, Penn. They go in a special train, tendered to General Grant by the Chicago, Alton and St. Louis Railroad Company.
Suffering Anionic the Sand Hills. GALVESTON, June 80.—A News' special from Fort Stockton says: Major R. J. Lawrence and corps of the Texas and Pacific Railroad, after a number of days of extreme suffering from thirst in the White Sand Hills, arrived at Pecos River without loss of life. Some stock and wagons were abandoned at different intervals for forty miles. These first arriving at the river, went in search of the others. A number, when found, crazed with thirst, had entirely stripped them selves. They were found within a hundred vards of Pecos River, drinking the blood of animals they had slain. Some men were almost blind. Arriving at the river they plunged in head foremost. But for the bravery of the most experienced a large number would have perished.

Louisville Democrats.
LOUISVILLE, KY., June 80.—-All is not lovely among the Democrats of Louisville. The ratification meeting in Louisvilie was controlled entirely by the old Tilden clique, who would consult no antiTilden Democrat, nor invite any but the anointed to address it. The action of the Executive Committee is, severely pondemned by the Post of this evening, and much disgust is manifested by those Democrats who think now that all dissensions should be reconciled, and that an old ring should not be kept alive by a dead issue.

PrrrsBtfBG, PA., Juno 80.—John Evans, a prominent member of the Amalgamated Association of Iron-workers, ended his existence in a strange manner to day. Tuesday he was arrested for drunkenness, and being ordinarily an industrious aud sober man, this disgrace effected him so as to make dim exceedingly despondent. His wife, a good companion to tho unfortunate, instead of paying his fine during the day, waited until after dusk, in order to shield him from further disgrace, to which lie was sensitive. Going home, he retired, and to-day he left home, informing his wife that he intended to take a walk. He soon afterwards returned, unobserved by any ono, and proceeded to liis room, where a few moments later his wife heard two shots. Heading to the direction from whence the shot came, his wife was horrified to find her husband lying on the floor, with blood streaming out of his mouth from two wounds near the back aud top of liis head. He held the revolver with a death grip in both hands, tightly clutched to his breast, and on examination it was discovered that he had placed the muzzle of the revolver in his mouth and fired two shots, one ball tearing its way to the back of his head and the other to the top, a short distance from the erown. The sight was a sickening one, and made his wife frantic. Ho died ten minutes after the shooting.
