Several cities in llie Western States, ainorii; them Indianapolis, are becoming intcros'ed in water works improvemeiifs. : T.lie. Holly' EjteVi e-ecma to be ai trading the most attention, and a committee thaa bieu appointed by the Common Council of Indianapolis, to vMt Peoria, Illinois and examine into the system, as it is in operation in that city. The Holly system, as wc understand it, eouM?t.s (-imply in establishing a largo stcarn ecgine near the stream from which, the supply of water is taken, and then forcinsr it through st-rvice pipen info all parts of the city. It is claimed 1 r this system that it furnishes a fisil supply of water, and with so Rrca pressure as to do away with all necessity for steam lire engine?. To extinguish tires all that is required is to attach hose to the nearest hydrant, and a 1 ive stieam of water an at once be turned upon the flames. The Indianapolis Stitti.ne.7, however, seems to bo skeptical with regard to the merits of the IIoLLY system. It thinks the only certain way of con strueticg water works is to build res crvoirs after tho old plao, and uis- . tribute tholwatcr through the city from the.-e. It urges the Indianapolis Council to be careful about adopt ing the Hoi.LY plan, as there are se rious objections to it, and it has been regarded unfavorably by the most ex perienced and best qualified civil in gineers. The Sutinrl urges that the temporary wants of that city for the extinguishment of fires and oth cr requirements, can be supplied by the "driven wells" which have been in $.ucccs:ful operation in our city for the past two years. The owner oi tho patent for these wells has proposed to the Indianapolis i.;ople to drive one, of six inches in diam cter, sutlieiently deep to insure au am pie supply of watjc to run a steam fire engine all day; and that if his well fails to furnish tuieh supply, he will barge nothing f r the experiment We do not know what tho capa city of a six-inch driven well would bo, but our acquaintance wil ! the lasting qualities of wells of sjialler diameter gives us confidence to believe that they would easily and lastingly supply a steam engine. I erbaps it would be well for our Council to have an experiment made. If be found truo that a well with a six inch tube will supply a steam engine with all tho water it can di.s charge, it would be advisabl to have several of them driven in that portion of the city where the greatest property interests are at stake. DeRides, if thcyare so well supplied with water the public cisterns might be filled from them with much less trouble and expensw than is now the case. Wo sucgest to the Council the propriety of examiuiiig into this matter before-the ia inter tho season of fires isagaiuupon us. Wabash College commencement. Wabash College, ) June L't, 1SG0. j MVltors Jotvnal : A the close of Col. Wilson's address, which was mentioned in our last, the Alumni aiet and elected, as officers. Dr. Tuttle-, President, r.c ojtleio; Judge J. M. Cowan, Vice President ; Prof. W. C. White, Secretary, and J. W. Iiutler, Treasurer. Hon. John Coburn was elected Orator for tho next annual reuuion. Judge Cowan then read a biographical sketch of the late Hon. James Wilt-on, which was well received and ordered to bo printed. The new graduates were elected members of the Society of the Alumni, when they adjourned to meet one year hence and enjoy tho eloquence ot Mr. Coburn. At two o'clock the Calliopesn and Lyceum Societies, according to custom, " whereof the memory of man runneth not to the contrary," held their reunion. More of the Alumni were present than usual. Old memories were revived and eloquent speeches made by those who once were of us, but now arc of the busy world. Nothing seems to afford greater pleasure to graduates and students than to meet again in the old halls, the scenes of so many arduous struggles, call arourul agaiu tho scenes of other days, an3 dwell upon the mimic contests so exciting and so valued. Many a hearty laugh echoed round tho hall as the deeds cf the past were reproduced by those participatiug in tliem. The Calliopcaus, not fancying the appearance of their hall so uu oh as iu days gone by, resolved to refurnish it, and a collection was taken up fur. that purpose, which resulted in a handsotno sum. Alter some lour hours of lemonading, speaking, and flowing of soul, the Societies were adjourned, hoping the coming rc-uuions may continue as pleasant as this. On Tuesday evening, Mr. Kumler repeated his address to a large and select audiene.". All joined in the sentiment n Dr. Tuttle that "it was grander in its repetition than first delivery." Yesterday, the grand gala day of the year. Centre Church was crowded to us utmost capacity. Many distinguished persons were present on the stage, upon whom rested tho laurels ot Church, iStnte and Natiou, come to witness another natal day oi" Wabash. The death cf Mr. llice, of the Senior Ciass, threw a glo m over the exercises, but with this exception all things conspired to enhance the pleasure of the day. Tho weather, cool and pleasant, could not have been more propitious. The class was small, but did honor to the College. Not a failure in memory marred the exhibition, and Senator Lane's cane, asisting at times in the applause,' gave evidence of the appreciation of the orations, while bouquets from friends and bonnio lasses were showered - upon the nowfiedged graduates. The Master's Oratious by Messrs. 11. JI. F. Pierce and JO. II. Post, sustained the high character of the class of 'GO for able oratory. Dr. Tuttle, in delivering the diplomas, made a short address to the class, replete with sound and eloquent advice. IJia welcome to tho

assembled patrons and friends of the Institution, and farewell' to the class, was a fitting close to so prosperous a year. The attendance on the President's levte, in the evening, was large. . The two Society Halls were thrown open, decke l in their best, and . beau'y, tulciit. and fashion added brilliancy to i ho occasion. Some fine vocal unisie was yiven by the amateur musicians present, mu?h to theiiratifieatioo of all. At a late hour the j srty broke up, well pleased with I'oinnioneeni-rnt, tho levee, and .Wra uh in general. i ,-, , r Thus c.tosed the thirty-first year , in t i.o history of Wabash Col ege, lopg to be remembered as one of the"rrosrotis years c f her existeuce. Struging upward from feeble means and t -ehl,' support, watched over by men of hu mhli; m ans but noble spirits; ledicated amid the snows of Wiutcr, to i he welfare ot humanity, and con secrated by the prayers of hofy men. she has steniily labored on, and labor ing riscu to bo a power lor good, loved by hundreds, and daily increasing in influence. ithout a dent upon her shoulders, and "some left in bcr locker lor a rainy day, , she commences the erection of the much longed-for wings. Slay 'wo not hope they will be lull grown by the time lSiil) bids us farewell. How 'much this room is needed can be appre ciate.! onlv in ita lull .extent bv those who know the growing prosperity and progress of the College. Mr. Hose, of Terre Haute, incna-cd his liberal donations by S'3,000 a lew days since. Caunot sotao of Kvaosville's philanthropists rival this in a good cause, and associate their names with a noble work by aiding in the completion of the buildings now begun? Tho Faculty are able. Christian men who know their duty well, and win the approbation of students and friends of the Cj'.Ie.ee. Not only do they eire well for the rneutal wants of the man, but with parental affection labor lor the higher culture of the souls of their pupils. Kind, yet firm, we ure sure every student will congratulate himself that Wabash is U'toor such control, and he a s-tudeut ther. The fa-nous camrms now rejoices in a coiling so thick as to cou ecitl the buildiui-s from the view of ti e town. Th'j health of the place cannot be rivalled. Iut odo case of serious illness has occurred during tho year. Charles W. llice, of the senior class, died on June 4th, of consumption. Of brilliant intellectual end 'Wmcnts and pure, Christian character, his death was mourned by n lai'ie circle of tricn Is in aud out. cf' C'dlc.tc. The Cabinet continues to increase. A valuable collection of shells i'r.im Wisconsin is the last addition to iis valued contents. Tho apparatus needs additions, which we hope, ere loni', to see. Tlu revival of '(J7 placed the institu'iou upon a moral basis, which still supports it as strong as ever. The C in i.-tian and. moral infinences here exerted is nt surpassed by institutions Hast or West. With her excel lent Faculty, high moral standard, and healthy situation, till Wabash needs to bee,. me one ot the famed and honored institutions ol the laud, is to be known Let, the Church having it in charge, the Alumni who leave its -shades, and its friends, tell ol what it is; make its true standing known, and a numerous attendance will bo the result. J-jvans ville had three representatives there this year Mr. Baker, of the Second Preparatory; Mr. Paleoek, of the Sophomore, aud Mr. Coleman, of the J unior classes. All are well pleased with their choice; and hope to see mere of the Evansville boys attend-' ingand ailding lustre to the name- of Wabash. J ULICS. TSI a (Otf MENiIiMOT bEASO.V.'.

CiRKFNCASTtE, Iod., ) June l!t, 1SG9. j We left Cincinnati at ht.li past three in the afternoon, by the Indianapolis, Cincinnati fc Lafayette Railroad, and arrived at Indianapolis four and i half hours thereafter. We immedi ately proceeded to the Northwestern Christian University Building, which was to ba the scene of festivities for the grand re-uoiou of the- three Indi ana chapter?, Lambda, Psi and llho, of the ancient Creek fraternity, "Sig ma Chi. I he attendance was large, and embraced the eltle of the city, and, indeed, of the entire State. Ample prepara lions for a seas jn of eujoyineut had been made by the managers who had the sWiair iu charge. 'A ho bociety hails in the upper portion of the buiiJiug were tastelully decorated with beautuul evergreens anei rare flowers, furnished by lady friends of the ancient and honorable fraternity The reception in these parlors lasted several hours, when an adjournment was mado to a hall reserved for the occasion, when the censintt part of the celebration was next in order. Tho fraternity had made arrangements for a tirst-ciass banquet, and they got it. It we are allowed to draw our conclusions from the manner in which it was elis patched, it was a feast " lit for the gods." The welcome oration was delivered by Mr. W. Scott Hay, of Jlho Chapter, and was a very ielicitous and appro nriate effort. As it is short and .dt rectly to the point, we take the liberty of reproducing it, knowing that the larire number of Jiiama Chi residents of your city and friends of the order wia reau n wuu micieai. iuciuilowing was the WELCOME ADDRESS. In behalf of llho Chapter of the Sigma Chi Fraternity, I bid you, kind friends,, a cordial welcome. To the bright galaxy ot youth anel beauty so larrjeiy represented to-night, 1 t.ay thrice welcome, and have only to regret that the chances are so favorable tor leading captive the cardiac strings ot our brothers from a distance. For you, lirother btgmas, who lonvr ago but lareell to your Alma Muter, and who are now engrossed with the cares of an active world, 1 extend a welcome, accompa-nit-awitu tne hope that the happy reminiscences of past academic Jays will to-night bo revived, and that you will drink deep and long at the fountain of unalloyed pleasure. I welcome you to a commiDgling with kiud friends to a relationship of generous hearts. I welcome you, "Lambda," in behalf of a rotrrie that has ever entertained a deep iuterest in your progress. I welcome you to the festivities to-night in the somewhat laconic language of Shakspeare: "A huudri-tl welcomes; A cm') bvuiu at llie very rout of his heart That is uot glad to &ee you."

I welcome you, " Psi " to the hospitalit' the most grateful, and assure you there's exultation at your presence. It is well that we have met. A social reunion tends to smooth the asperities of life and refine the soul. I cannot pause without an allusion to our Fraternity. It is an aneient.-an honorable one; it- dates many years back.- On its roll are inscribed the names of men, the bffght scintillations of whose genius adorned the flgj tlicy livi.-d in, and shed a halo of ben'gaaut light around the precincts ot the grave, which. the corrosions of time atone will darken. The devotees of the White CVo.w dot the terrestial globe as stars

checker the firmament 'above. In every State and College of renown they still occvjpy positions of'rcoilil worth, are esteemed "as high-toned men. The Order will ever survive tho ruthless-hand of lime cannot de stroy it. It win not aie, ior it. is ounded on tho eternal and immutable principles of llight. It reti upon the Divine doctrine that mind, not matter, should rule the universe. It strives to promote good and noble endfl. It pleads- to day as it pleaded in the pa3t, lor the dissemination of knowledge, ior the cultivation ot the mind. Its mission is not a showy one, but rather of duty and justice to fellow-man.' In its dealings with the world, its motto has ever been: " FIAT JUSTICIA SIAT COILUM." The address was well received, and its conclusion was a reminder to the company that the groaning tables of rich things were next in order to receive their attention, and the sym pathetic crowd did ample justice, it was indeed a " feast ot reason and flow of soul." interspersed with an excellent variety of the substantial prepared by the clitf tie cuistne ol the affair. During the hours that were consumed around this festive board, a number of toasts were offered and responded to. " The Press ' as given by one ot the members, was beauti fully pronounced, and called forth an clegaut response. The baueiuet dis patched, the party returned to the halls, aud didn t go noise till mofn- . ii ;ng. Asiitmv. Oa Friday, as ou the preceding day, the entire time was taken up in class examinations, which passed oil pleasautly and profitably to all. lhe young men as a general thing were well prepared in the studies they had conducted duringthe year, to undergo t lie final tost, and acquitted themselves with honor, and reflected credit upon proud Alma Jfati.-r, Tho hour appointed lor opening the evening's exercises of the Piii (J.nnma Delta Fiaterui-y (seven o'clock) was early, but rendered necessary by the large number of performers and the class of performances that had been prepared. The doors of the college were thrown open ut half past six o'clock, and very goon crowds of lalics and gentlemen began floekiig in; and by halt past seven tho Chapel was complet !y tilled. It was one of the iiuest. and largest audiences we remember ever to have seen ass- mbled (n .-uch au occasion. And still with the complacent assurance that " t here is always room for one more," stili kept crowding in until even this trite sayiTTs was elemonsfrate 1 to be 'alse, filling all the vacant room With extra chairs and seats. Unfortunately, the weather was excessively hot, but with good ventilation of the Chapel, and a Irte use of fans, the ladies kept quite comfortable, and enjoyed this occasion more than almost any exhibition of the kind during the year; ',Wc here present the programme in full, from which it will be seeu that six performers contested for the "hbuois of the evening. The following is the ! PrteitiRAMME. ! Music. Invocation. Music. Poem, by J. F. Cirrotf. Quinsy, III. Music. Tin-sis, " Tho lixeellcncy of Misfortune," by. C. IV Jones, Covn.ston, Ind. Music. Special Oratioo, ' The False and tho True?," by Louis Nahm, Louisville, Ky. Music. Dissertation, "Talent," by W. K. .llickctts, Wuldrotr, Ind..- Music. Dissertation, "Genius," by Mc. Blakely, ltussellville, Ky. Music Philosophical Oration, "Life's Battles Lost and Won," by J. B. Sargent, Oaklaud, 111. Music. Benediction. Music. In a performance of the character of this one it would bo next to impossible to discriminate directly in favor of any particular one, and we will simply in a brief manner uientic l the characteristics of each performer. J. F. Carrott, of Quincy, Ills., the first to raise his voice before tho audience, made a happy impression. lie was entirely calm, and spoke deliberately, and was distinctly heard and understood from the cimpus outside of the building, where a latge number of persons, uuable to effect an entrance, stood, eagerly drinking in every word that fell from tho speaker's lips. , C. D. Jones, of Grcencastle, had a spirited but too lengthy recitation on the excellency of misfortune, and suggested some good ideas. .. Ilis performance was well received. To Louis Nahm, of Louisville, Ky., must be given the honors of the evening, by common consent and the applause of tha audience for his impressive manner and truly eloquent How of words in " The False and the True." Not only did he speak line an experienced orator aud a finished scholar, but his argument was sound and able, and his touches of pathos carriedlthe audience away wrth him. He is a credit to Phi Gamma Delta, the excellent rules of which guided his footsteps "for the best; and to "old Asbury," who fitted him to become a man among the proudest men of the nation, and knew himself to be their equal, - - W. ft. llicketts, Waldron, Indiana on the subject of " Talent," rehearsed "a well written argumcut in favor of constant application to useful employments, in which there was more honor as well as pre; tit than in idle affluence. The dissertation by Mc. -I! lackey, of II- ssellville, Kentucky, on"Geuiua." called up mauy til" the circumstances arisipg iu the history of our nation, illustrating the sublime genius of those who liveu in former ages-. He took hold of the subject in a manner at once eredirable and pleasing, and handled it iu a manuer that displayed that he was master of his work." ilis performance was -pokc-n.of by the audience in terms of the highest praise. The Philosophical oration " Life's Battles, Lost, and 'Won." by J. B. Sargent, of Oakland, Illinois was in every way fit to be classed with the best. Its arrangement aud wordings showed great care in preparation, and revealed many good thoughts, and pictures of such exquisite beauty, as convinces us b has imaginative faculties of the higher order. That his performauee was able aij . recognised to a certainty, before he had spoken twenty words. He was loudiy applauded. At the conclusion the benediction was pronounced, and the large crowd dispersed for their homes and tho various ice-cream depots; a large proportion of tho crowd to the latter, which were flooded with beauty and fashion from all parts of the State until a late hour.

The music of Professor Grcsh's famous band, from Indianapolis, udder the leadership of Professor "Vogt, was a feature of the evening. This' band is one of the best in the State. Saturday evening we are to have, in the College chapel, 'the performance of chosen' members from the Philological Literary Society ; Sunday morning at SV, annual class meeting; at 10 o'clock, Ice-alaureath sermon, by President Bowman; t a quarter to three in the alterooen, annual Lecture, by Kev., Kiuben Andrus, D.
