Commencement .Exeroiiei Interesting Speech of Gen- Sherman Hii Own Bam " tfuacencei f an Eventful Life. - ' . " . HaxovIb, N. H.. July 19. 1306. ' The' commencement of Dartmouth -College, took place to-day.. Mnj. .Gen. Sberiuuji, Cliirf Justice Chnee, Gov. Smith, of New Hampshire, Senator Pt teraon, Mayor Lincoln, of Boston, and a Iar(te . number of other distnguihed (lUests were present, together with an immense audience. ' The : graduating class numbered forty-two, nnd the ora tiotia all iudicnted a high order of ability in the npeaker9. Among the decrees conferred was that of Doctor of Lawa (LLiD.) npon Gen. ghermftn.. President .Smith, of the College, in a few happy .re marks conferring it,; called upon the General for a speech. . On stepping for ward fo comply, Gen. Shermnn was re- '.cei veil with the wildnst expressions . of deliglit. k, SPEECH OP CtS. SnEBVAK. . ' Gun. Shermnn said : i '" ,i Ladiks and Gentlemen It is be yuud -my power or the power of any liv Jn creature to fill one half the picture yonr worthy President has jnst painted. I ant aCraid you aro dying what was done in iho ejirly part of the war elevating men far above their ability and letting them down pretty hard. (LatiRhter end applause.) Nevertheless, as in former parts of jnj Jifa, I will try and discharge the duly ; assigned to me humbly to the best of my ability, nnd turn with pleas ure to the men to whom we have been listening with ao much delight. The ar ray of ladies and gentlemen before us, of mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers, attest the interest that is felt in you, and the hopes they entertiiin of you, now that you are about leaving your teachers, who have been titled by former experi ences, by the study of books, and by association with other men. to impart knowledge to you that, will fit you for the) lil'e: before yon, Unfortunately for me, I was not so favored as you have been, and I regret, it now and shall re gret it to the end of time. I was cotn- rlled to pick np what little knowledge posse by grasping it, as it were, through brambles, nnd I so betimes had my hand prelty sharply pricked too. You have' had thote around you. who have gladly told you everything you desired to know,' whoso minds were well 'stored with the richest learning of the past., . And now, young men, you must look out for yourselves. , (Applause.) Your ship is about to sail on an unknown sen. . You have your charts and your compass; see that you steer your course properly, that you watch your compass, and do not allow your minds-to be turned aside by the scudding of the sea or the winds across your Bails, but follow your compass, and you will just as surely ar rive at your destination as- honesty will produce a good man. (Applause.) My young friends, I remember that twenty six years ago 1 stood as you now stand, about to go forth to do whatever might full to my share, and I now find myself here in the presence of men w ho were graduate of this college before I was born. It appears to rae almost like sacrilega for me to stand up in their presence and attempt to give advice or instruction, and I would not presume to bbv one word bad not your honored Presi dent asked me to do it; probably for some reason nuknown to me. (Applnuse.) When I graduated, I wiis told, in plum English not in L.Hin (lanahter) that I hud finished, and win qualified in na tural philosophy, chcmUuy; mathemat ics, and so forth. . To prove that I was qualified, I was sent d.iwn to Florida to catch Indians, I did not see the logic of it then, nor do I now ; bnt I had to go. I went from place to place in that coun try, aud, finally, I brought up in Charlea ton; and whether I h:ul "a foresight of what was coming, if that could be, or whether it was by the directing hand of Providence, who rules all things, I cer issinly was a wanderer in thosedays, and hunted through the marshes of the San tr e, the Kdi.ito and the Savannah rivers, obtaining knowledge wbirh has since been of value to the nation. Cheer. Again, by what seemed a Providential accident, 1 was sent to take testimony about some lost saddle and bridles value, nothing; but nevertheless those lost .sudJles and bridles took mo into a regioa of country the knowledge of which afterwards proved to be of the greatest importance to the people; of New llamshire and the whole civilized world. ' I went to Manetla and Chattanooga, and stayed six weeks, and in that short time gained knowledge which has inet; I think, repaid the mile age paid me at ten cents per mile Ap plause. Shortly afterward, just about twenty year ago, I remembef sitting with many young officers Braxton Bragg was one at .he dining table of the Hon. James Pettipa I believe the best Union man present will not doubt the lovalty of Mr. Pettigru, for be was loval in lfil. He was the only loyal in telligent man in Charleston during the --n-'V-Oj. ...nGXrf .... t LARGEST CITY Cinc;ULATIO.. rebellion, and bt is loyal now. Mr. Pet tigru listened to our complaints that onr future looked poor, and that the only promise held out to ns was a brevet ma jor commission and command of some little post on the New England coast He told , us; ; "Gentlemen, do not be alarmed; there is a Providence guides this world, and you young men will yet bave'to wait an opportunity to put yonr talents to use." His language gave us encouragement.- - The Mexican war soon broke out, and I was sent to California, where, in my wanderings, Law tho first piece of gold discovered, and watched its magical effect upon the whole world. The discovery of that gold gave millions to America, and I doubt much whether, if that gold had not been .discovered, the nation would have managed to work out the problem of finance which the war of rebellion had raised, and preserved its present glorious position. That gold gave us wealth and credit abroad,and a strength and durability that survived the war. After some ytars Iagain went Sontli, and all at once I paused to see and feel in the very air that we were upon the verge of a sectional war. I bad heard it spoken of in Charleston. We had laughed and joked over it at the mess table. I had heard it discussed by politicians. I had hoard Gen. Scott say we were on the eve of war; but my mind nevef realized it until the spring or summer of I860, when ' I was in New Orleans and ' Baton Rouge. ' Then for tbe first time I saw that it was not all talk. The cry of "wolf, wolf," meant something, and that civil war was upon us sure enongh. And wb-t bits been the issue ? ' Yon all know it has been a short war to" the world at large,' but long enough to us during those dark days which formed the early part of it j I will not review it Let history take charge of it All I will say is that in that war arose men, one by one, equal to . the emergency, nntil the war closed aad the nation was saved. (Applause.) And now, young gentlemen, I ask you to look at these men and your future. They are like yourselves. Look at General Grant, a modest, plain, bold, brave, un changing gentleman,' with the simple idea to do what is right, and nothing will turn him aside from that. A more modest man than George Thomas exists not on earth. If he were present, you could not begin to get him to stand up here, and Phil. Sheridan would infinitely rather, with saber in hsnd, ride down tbe rebel line than enter this room and stand in my place. (Cheers.) Gen. Meade is an accomplished gentlemen and scholar nnd would fill this place far better than I. (Cheers.) Thus you see that during the war men have risen to the highest positions, and stand there now, not one of whom pretends to he above you ; and this teaches the simple lesson thut with honesty of purpose you can master every problem if you go at it with a good purpose nnd a determination lo do bo. fbere is no doubt of that in my judg ment. It requires, of course, a great in tellect to become a renownc judge or lawyer or man of science, but for a mini of business or tbe thousand and one employments that give tone and temper to the country, any young man with a good, honest heart, can master them. , For tho art of war, in which renown seems thrust npon us, all that is required is nerve, honor, courage and faith in the flag that wins, and wins always. I will not occupy more of your time, for I have seen Indies and gentlemen standing here for five long hours, patiently, and you uiust be tired. I know you will say amen to the words I have bpoken to tbe.se young men and give them a parting and cheer ful word as they leave your little village of Hanover and start out into that world, which is not so dark and full of bad pro pie as has been represented., There are a great many good people in the world. You will find them wherever vou go, and you will find people alike wherever yon go. for they are all prctly much as God Almighty designed them. Therefore, young gentlemen, wishing you a happy passage through the sea of life, I bid you farewell. (Cheers. ) From Washington. Special Dispatch to the Republican. Washington, July 21. The Senate spent seven hours to-day in discussing the House resolution to admit Tennessee to representation in Congress, and final ly adopted a substitute for it, which is more of a change in phraseology than in the principle of the resolution. It of course goes back to the House for con currence. Senators Sumner and Brown, Buckalew and McDougal voted against the admission of Tennessee. The discussion growing out of this question and the disagreement between the two houses, inevitably postpones ad journment beyond Weenesday next. The House consumed three hours in reprimanding Gen. Rousseau. He made a speech denouncing certain members who had acted, he declared, as public prosecutors and" then as judges in bis ease, for which he-was excitedly called to order from aeveral parts of the hall. He concluded by tendering his resigna tion as a member, which the House deci ded did not clear him from its censure. He was then called to the bar and very briefly reprimanded by the Speaker- He then immediately retired from the hall. To-day a concurrent resolution was adopted providing for a recess of Con gress until October. There were only hve majority in favor of it, but it is be lieved this or a similar proposition will be adopted next week. It proves on investigation that tbe ac tion of Congress in cutting off the sal ary of Minister Harvey, M Portugal, it so adroitly fixed that the Secretary of State can't even pay him out of the se cret service fund. AYashington in literally filled with poli ticians representing every party and almost every section of the country. The White House thia afternoon wat fairly besieged by them, but the President! declined to receive any persons but Sen ators and members, and other oflicials of the Government M'Ccial to Ike tU Loo is Democrt. WashiKutox, July 22. InformaUuu Las been received al the Internal Reve nue Ollice of extensive frauds at the West on tbe revenue, principally in whiskey, and unless tbe parties impli cated ara allowed to compromise, heavy seizures will toon take place. A num ber of Ohio distillers are involved. The President yesterday announced bis determination to remove Isaac New ton, Commissioner of Agriculture. Ihit is not to much on account of his ineffici ency at in obedience to tbe demands of Senator Cowan. . A state dinner was given by Mr. Seward yesterday. All the members .and ei membert of the Cabinet, except Mr. Harlan, were present E D L Strenuous efforts are being made to remove John Defrees, the present Super intendent of Public Printing. The most prominent applicant for the position it Mr. Flinn, money agent at this place un der Buchanan, and during the war a semi-rebel. . ' The Hall of the House of Representa tives was packed this morning to hear a sermon from the chaplain appropriate to the close of the session. The subject was, "God's hand in our material con flict" t . , Many Western Congressmen. who had expected to reach their homes in time to look after the nominating conventions of this and the coming week, will now remain to watch the Tennessee question. The nominations in the districts now represented by Clark, of Ohio, and McClurg, of Missouri, occur the first of this week. Information received here seems to render their return certain. Mr. Seward declared most emphati cally a few days since that the Mexican question would be satisfactorily settled in ninety days. There is much speculation whether the President will sign or veto the Tennessee bill While his purpose cannot positive ly be indicated, it may be said that there are some reasons for thinking he may do neither, but return it to the House with out his approval or disapproval. In a conversation Friday evening.he it known to have argued that the mutter was one with which he had nothing to do. He held that the State had never been out of the Union, and therefore no legislation was neces sary to bring it back, while the question of admitting Senators and Representa tives wat one for each House of Con gress to decide. He said that the meas ure was not a joint resolution merely because it was called such, but was in the nature of a concurrent resolution, directed solely to the . business of Con gress, and therefore not of a character to be laid before the President What Become! of the Fiat! . This question has often been asked, but ge Lave never met with a satisfactory answer to it. Few persons are aware of the enormous consumption of the useful little instrument The annual report of the Secretary of tbe Treasury ten years ago, contained some interesting memo randa relative to manufactures, furnished by Hon. Philip Allen, then Senator from Rhode Island, in which, among other things, he slated that the number of pins made per annum in tbe United States was six billions, six hundred and seven millions, three hundred and sixty thou sand. Now the old question comes up for solution what becomes of the pins ? The population of the country was then twenty-six millions. Does each individual- man, woman and child consume one hundred pins a year? For that would be the average supply. But it is well known that it is only one sx whi use pins at bII. Does each American example of the femanine gamier consume two hundred pins a year ? From baby hood to maturity and from that to the grave, the passion far pins, it is admit ted, is a p'art of woman's nature ; but we submit that this fact affords no satisfac tory explanation of tho disappearance of twenty-six hundred and seven utillious of pins per annum. The question there fore still remains What does become of the pins? Whls"J.N1" Everybody knows "J. N," but few l;now his history. Those who know him nest, hesitate in what catalogue to place hira. The Cleveland Leader gives the following personal sketch : " J. N." is Mr. J. N. Free, formerly of Tiffin Ohio; now of the world. He is about forty years of age, tall and erect, with a powerful frame. He wears long hair, has a piercing eve, but over all is cast the peculiar look and acting of a monomaniac. Ten years ago Mr. Free was a thriving business man. He was considered a man of more than ordinary literary at tainments, possessing a strong intellect and considerable talent. . About the year 1855 he wat doing businessin California; and brooding over extensive losses, on sea aad land, that followed npon each other in quick succession, he became de mented. SinCe that time, in an inoffen sive way, he has wandered np and down the Union and to and fro in it MISCELLANEOUS. jjlj I1CEU, I1S0.U RIGLAJH, JJ"JWJ Boots, Shoes, ' ' onrl Tfrnirona Af WHOHilLI AKC aiTilL. jQB gj"BH 310 Mala SI reel, VS MEMPHIS. - TENN. j2J3m W NV JIOOH SOUTHERN WORK, Ity R.
