AU the aids In this direction are offered you here to an extent which you can only measure when hereafter, perhaps, you revive the recollee-tlon of Inst advantages. A generous rivalry has ever prompted your endeavors.

Each of you clings with very proper pride to the society of his choice. Among shades like these, in halls made classic by treasured recollections, tlie stories of the men of earlier days, whose lips here learned to speak the words of eloquence, almost brinit with them inspiration. Both societies have sent throughout the land, and throughout all lauds, men of ability beyond question and reputation above reproach. 'And in the long succession of eminent men whose names illustrate the pace of American history, there are many who signed your rolls whose eloquence has been effective, hose oratory has been powerful, whose Influence has been wise aud extended who formed the basis of their public life within your halls, aud traced tlie origin of their success to the days when they wore the red badge or the blue. Again year rollsonandbrlnesthe day of departure from these scenes.

It Is the old, old story. With all its happiness It has the same sad side. Tartings are made of friends for whom there may not be on earth another meeting. There are ties broken by this separation which can uever be renewed. To you it seems as If your years reached far into the future.

The shadows of the nay are uot more fleeting. The bauds on the dial begin to move faster and faster even now. Soon from the weary work of life, regretfully looking here, you will remember days which, never returning, will be hallowed in your hearts. Hereafter, when sometimes hope seems gone and disappointment conies in all its bitterness, the recollection of this college parting will be gladly welcomed as you recall, when friends seem few, the beuedictlons of this hour, i Our glimpses of the future are uncertain, and none can claim prophetic vision but we can have faith lu the hoped-for fulfillment of those wishes which go with you as you leave this consecrated spot Then, when your days on earth are done, mingling with your memories no regret, there will be given from you to those you love the honored record of a manly life. Tho distinguished speaker wag warmly applauded in the course of his address and at the conclusion of it.

Id the afternoon at two o'clock the trustees of tho college tendereed a grand complimentary banquet to General Grant and party. About seveuly persons sat down to a most bountiful table spread In the gymnasium, and the galleries were occupied by a large number of spectators, The occasion was a very happy one. Speeches were made and sentiments responded to by President McCosh, General Grant aud a number of others.

The banquet occupied more than two hours in its discussion. During this time by far the larger portion of the students and guests had betaken themselves to the base ball grounds, where a match game of great interest was announced to be ployed between the famous amuieur Olympic se Ball Club of your city, and the well-known Princeton Nine, the priuce of the college clubs, ruling the Harvard as the king. The batting of either club was not heavy, the pitching of both pitchers being heavy throughout. The fielding of Alann and Rverson wa marked by some excellent plays. OftheOiym pics Wagner at short stop was the ouly one who spcdtlly distinguished himself, making a very fiue catch hot from the bal.

Tho play of Raslail at third was also good. His Excellency the President honored the g.tinu with his presence, and appeared highly delighied tb the progress of the contest. 90 and the Accrued Interest Added. six hundred and three members. Moneys received Mrs Moore tt dau, Pa Ford.

At the close of these exercises, anont mir-pasi ten o'clock, the procession was formed ag tin, aud iu long army, two by two, prceed by the Ui ml, which Ihrnughout ths day played anything but religious music, took tip its wav to ths chapel, wheo the Secretary of War, General William W. Belknap, was to deliver the address before tho American Whig and Cliosophic Soeie-liie.

The chapel was more th.tu thronged, if that were possible, for crowds poured in after ihere was no' iitwie standing room, and crowds Heul clespoudent uwuy. Iho iollowiog is the address: It la the same old Trinceton still. The ground on which we tread seems sacred. The very air revives the memories uf days long gone. The memo, ries of college davs come crowding on us now as fresh and full as ever.

The lapse of time makes older nieu of ail of us, but It does not dim thesiuht that looks back upon the past; and the recollections that are dear to every graduate, with all their pleasant are with us now ai if they were fashioned into form but yesterday. To these halls we return totlnd the Institution of our love the same, and Vet more )ii'iperous. In Iter progressive march she gathers newfrieudsto her support; she forms increased attachments and attracts new allies; she calls to her command new recruits, and under the guardianship of her protecting arm and her instructing voice, holds uew access ons of young men. In such a land as ours there can be no continued failure lu the efforts of the educated mau who. reliant on the will which God has given him, on the strength of mind which he should possess, and on the education which In earlier days has disciplined his life and thought, stands a peer among his fellows in that power which enables him to mould circumstances to his uses and to make himself manifest as a man among men.

There are no troubles too great to be overcome, there are no barriers in the path of him who wins success by the accomplishment of duty. Willi tho will and the desire in harmony theie can be nothing but certain victory. Repetition may weary us with ths story of the advantages which our country offers to men anxious tor reputation and the distinction of an honored lift-, and yet no clearer held for high advancement was ever before opened to the hope and the conscientious ambition of the Christian statesman. To men of no single creed or pride of birth alone does tlie opportunity come. Determined trial and strong will aud patient energy all lead to prosperous lortune.

There Is a purpose which, when once resolved upon, rarely results in failurs. There Is a trust, too, which, when all other reliance seems weak, is found a sure support. Aud he who keeps the faith will temper his self-reliance with the sacred Influences of that Inspiration which tells him that "Promotion cometh neither from the East nor from the West nor from the South Hut Ood is the judge he putteth down one and setteth up another." The teachings given in early life are firmly fastened In the minds of all who have enjoyed the benefits, and, in proper spirit, accented the advantages which larger colleges extend. Fixed forever are those moral principles which were instilled into their hearts before they grew, perhaps. Impressionless with age.

As the years go on they lind thenselves relying on the lessons of early days to lead them. And It Is when the remembrance of those distant Iniluences strengthens their purpose and renews their hope; It is when relieved from fear of failure, from doubt and disti ust-they come triumphing from their trials that they should realize, In the fullness of its measure, the amount of the debt which i. due from litem to the institution which has schooled and prepared them for these struggles. In one of the most severe battles of the war of the Rebellion. In the Atlanta campaign, on July 28.

1864. known as the battle of Ezra Church, the Fifteenth Corps, part of the Army of the Tennessee was attacked very heavily by the enemy under Hood, and reinforcements were required at special points. Among the forces sent to aid their brother soldiers, whose lines were becoming weaker under the repeated assaults of a foe more numerous than themselves, were two regiments of Blair's Seventeenth Corps, one a regiment from New Jersey and the other from Iowa. Falling into line in the work temporarily vacated bv their toil-worn comrades, side by side aud shoul'erto shoulder, the men of these regiments repelled attack after attack of the Confederate battalions. Iu the lull that occurred after one of the ten ilic charges made by the enemy, and while the men were resting and quietly awaiting the next advance, it happened that the adjutant of the New Jersey regiment and the Colonel of the Iowa regiment were thrown together, aud in a soldier's informal way, entered into familiar conversation.

They had never met before, but each was surprised to learr. that the friends of one were the friends of the oilier that the early teachings of the one were given him on the same spot and among (he same scenes where was passed the student life of the other, and there, in tho midst of the havoc of battle, each greeted in the other a graduate of Princeton. Another charge came from the enemy, which was repelled as were the others, and as these two men. hen the fire abated, returned again from the military duties their position required, under the trees and upon the rocks in the rear of that line of battle, they talked of college days; of those earnest teachers who, years before, had led them In ways which were ways of pleasantness," and of that venerable mau whom all graduates love with tender aflec-tion. for his kindly character, and his devotion to them in hours when they needed friendship.

Never was there a more forcible illustration of the power and spirit of early associations. Without their knowledge, and almost Imperceptibly, the ties of regard for their Alma Mater had been fastened so securely around the hearts of there two men, one from the extreme Kast and the other from a rising State beyond the Mississippi, that in actual action, and in the presence of death, that memory was sacred and abiding. The free school system cf most of the States of the Union extending the privileces of insti notion (o the young of all classes, and gathering within the unlimited circle of its beneficence all of every station, regardless of wealth or position commends itself to the considerate Judgment of those who reflect upon the necessity which requires central education; a necessity which demands ihis result tor the well-being of the Mate for the public comfort, and for the furtherance of those principles of justice, morality and order which should characterize every civilized Commonwealth. Wherever settlements spring up in remote regions, the school houses are among the earliest signs of promising growth, and even where all seems uninviting, the presence of this sure indication of an approach to more Intelligent life removes an impression otherwise unkind, and, generally, by the power of their influence, the plainest localities are made attractive. With the growth of the country, and with the extension those measures which, as communities become stronger, increase educational facilities, institutions of greater power and higher purposes, rising from time to time, mark by their own advancement the Improvement of the people.

For the last two or three days ihey have teen pouring in from all sections of the couutry, especially from the neighboring towns and next from Philadelphia and New York. The beautiful privato residences, surrounded with trees and clinging with Bowers and vines, arc doing a joyful service for the guests, there being scarcely a prominent citi-icn of the town who has cot thrown open his doors to the visitors and made him welcome with I truly PriDcetonian hospitality.

The streets are crowded with promcnaderi. The fathers and mothers of the graduates to be have come up In force to sec their sons clothed nritb the blushing honors which the college will jive on the morrow, and sisters and brothers ire not wanting to greet their prides of the household with the love which has kindled by a Ions; absence. It "is impossible to describe the joy which everywhere prevails. It is something of a manifest yet subdued cltaractcr which fills the i yj with gleams of delight and makes every lace beam with a happiness which has Its most visible demonstration in the greetings exchanged Crura mouth to mouth, the handshakings and the mutual good wishes of friend to friend. Old Princeton has iudeed undergoue a wonderful change under the management of Fresident McCosh.

A new and great impetus has been given to every department. Emiuont men have been called in to hold up the bands of the venerable scholar to whom the world's thought owes so much the great metaphysician as well as the great divine, who has brought his hearty, genial presence and hk boundless energy Into collegiate life, and has put a new face on the higher cdueatbn of mauy of our American colleges. The remit was to be foreseen. With increased energy infused into every department, has come a fuller prosperity. Students bave been added in great numbers, and the famo of Princeton, as possessing a thorough and elevated educative standard, with a ctirriculum calculated to make the most of time and brain, has gone far and wide.

The liberal-minded citizens of this and other States, recognizing this fact, have come op nobly to the work of furnlshiug means for the endowment and support of each department oi the college. The record of Princeton for the past year has been one of addition after addition, foundation after foundation, and wllhal a strengthening of the things that are, and a placing of every chair in the stablo foundation of an ample moneyed support. Museums, libraries, balls have been built, apparatus collected, cabinets cnlnrged, until now Princeton has begun to look around it for room, and has come to kDow that her present grounds, already filled to the full with splendid buildings answering busy and indispensable arc much too small for present needs. And still the donors corno forward with munificent gifts, demanding new exertions and new ground. The most recent gift is that of $117,000 from Mr.

Joliu C. Green, of New York, fur the purpose of a new lib ary building. That the library will be well furnished, when constructed, is evidenced by the fact that, for several weeks past, the faculty, at their Friday meetings, have named five hundred new volumes, which will he placed on the shelves at the proper time. Arrival of President Vranl. The first great event of yesterday was the arrival of President Grant and several members o( his staff.

About ni'X' o'clock the distinguished party arrived at iho ImI near the grounds, where they the students in a The proci took Its way to the chapel, where an impromptu reception was given to the President. His Excellency, upon bring called npou for a ecch, made a very characteristic one, as follows: 'I did not come here to make a speech; you all know that I scarcely ever do speak nt all. I came to hear my secretary, General Belknap. I remember the saying of the old philosopher, that he had two to hear and one mouth to speak, and I have determined that I shall be spectator and an auditor, and nothiug else." The distinguished vMtor was loudly cheered before and after Irs speech, and was the object of general interest for the rest of the day. Among the other eminent gentlemen, generals aud civilians, who erne up with the party or in a later train, were Secretaries Belknap and Robeson, Meade, Frank P.

Blair, Porter, Halstead, Myers. Chief Signal Officer; Drum, Adjutant-General, the President's ion Fred, Governor Randolph, Senator Frcling-huvsen, Chancellor Zabiiskie, Professor Metau, of 'West Point, Henry Clrwes and Robert Bonner. The President and staff, together with several Df the accompanying party named were guests of President McCosh, while the others found a warm hospitality in the bonses of the other professors md residents of the town. The clergy were largely represented from all parts of the country so that an enumeration of the tames would show the presence of many of Lie leading divines of the Union. I willingly ipare you the tedious infliction of the names of ihese.

After the reception of the President and party, the vast concourse of people which had bv this lime collected, including the professor the nudents snd guests, betook themselves to the rast and well appoiuted gymnasium, under the imtrol ol Prof. Goldie. of New York, one of the in uyor, eorrei fiouse Mrs Sliehuiie.

To-morrow is commencement day proper and nil are in a joyful state of exultation over its attractions of oi ation, degrees and awards of honors. Visitors are constuutly arriving and the hotels are lull to repletion to the distraction of tho laud-lords who are compelled to billet late comers around at private housts. Nothing has occurred to detract from the harmony of the occasion. Princeton is singularly free from all rowdy elements, and all disturbance on this score is quite a matter of impossibility.

The students themselves, actuated as most of tliera are by the deep religious feelings which maik the Instruction of the classes, are characterized by none of thatsuobbisu rowdyism which is the bane of many similar institutions. No swell mobs parade the town singing bacchaunlUn ongs or practicing orgies of hideous serenndi: beiore tho bousi ol odious professors; but everything about tlie young undergraduates is g'- tie-manly aud perfectly decorous, a id as there nre no odious professors where all are loved and -sreeteJ, calitbutnpian serenades arj not heard of at all.
