Rev. N.H. Loose on last Sabbath evening, preached a "commencement sermon" for the benefit of the young, more especially the pupils of the high school and those about to graduate.

Miss Lizzie Linn Meredith  (d/o Hon. J.B.), Miss Emily Judson Fry [Frey] (d/o Samuel), Miss Alice S. Breckbill (d/o Jonathan), will graduate this Thursday evening at Bowman Hall, with usual honors. 

This is the first class who have taken the full course of study prescribed by the Board of Education, while a member of it several years ago.  We feel greatly pleased that these first fruits have appeared, and doubt not, many more will now be induced to follow in their footsteps, until the Shelby High School shall have its Alumni, as well as other institutions of learning.
