OPINIONS.
Every mau has his opinions. Few,
indeed, there are who feel any delicacy in giving them expression on
any and all occasions. The vast
majority of our fellow creatures
come into the world with a very
stio g, inate conception of their right
to entertain whatever opinions they
please, and live apparently for the
sole purpose of constantly exercising that highest of human prerogatives. "I think so and so," says
Squire Brown. "I beg leave to differ
with you," says Squire Smith. ''Sir,
be Careful how you dispute my word,
for I tell you my observations have
convinced me that I am right," insists Squire Brown. "Well, I will
state, sir,thatmy observations equally as good as yours, have convinced
me that you are wrong," retaliates
Squire Smith, with a rising inflec
tion towards the close "Well I
say you are a . fool," returns
Squire Brown. "Well, I say you
are a liar," roars Squire Smith,
in auger. Thereupon tue infuriated
Squire Brown pounces upon Squire
Smith like a hungry tiger, and sooa
the two dignified squires are rolling
in the dirt in highly animated confusion. Finally Squire Smith subdued by the pugilistic power of his
antagonist, a result which his logic
fails to accomplisl^ and painfully
realizing that this is physically if
not metaphysically the weaker side
of the argument, cries "enough."
Accordingly Squire Brown, satisfied
with his triumph releases him, add
ing as he does so, "I'll let you go
this lime, but be careful in the fu
ture how you contradict me." In
shame and tatters Squire Smith
turns his foot steps homeward,swearing vengeance as he goes. Mrs.
Smith meets him at the door, with
the affectionate salutation, "I told
you so, you stupid blockhead." "If
you were as harmless and inoffensive as your wife, you would never
get into trouble. 1 hardly finish
mending one of your shirts and
patching one pair of 3'our breeches
before here comes another. I wish
I had never married you, Mr
Brown." Such a scene as this is too
often the result of a clash of opinions. Both cannot be right, and in
the great majority of cases both are
in the wrong. If a man would only
stop to inquire how deeply his con-
rictions ie and whether they are
founded u ion reason and right, be'ore prove cing a dispute, such uniiappy res ilts would seldom occur.
When e come to seriously consider the importance of opinions in
the light off human nature what little value (Jo we find them to possess.
Very few ^e"sons, indeed, hold opinons that represent the result of deiberate conviction. It would not be
unreasonable to estimate that hardly
one man in a hundred has paused to
nquire whether his opinions are
founded upon observation and reason, or whether they are more sentimental ideas unconsciously contracted during the course of his
ife time. 5 The opinions which many people entertain have been received froan
i. others. In childhood
when impressions are easily and
)ermanently made, we are constantly hearing the opinions of those
about us. I Respect for these persons
and a desire to possess their app>obation, would naturally lead us to
adopt their views, even should we
not insensibly contract them by the
mere frequency of hearing them expressed. As we grow older and hear
nothing that is inconsistent with
these prepossessions, they acquire a
stronger hold upon us, regulating
>ur conversation and operating in
all our actions. Educated in tbete
ideas, we never once dream that they
may be fallacious, or that those directly opposite may be correct. Such
opinions as these cannot be approved by reason, and yet there are
thousands who are influenced by no
other kind.
A great many opinions reflect the
results of particular positions in
which men are placed. The man
who is introduced into the world
amidscen'.'s of elegance and luxury,
and as lie grows up is attended wiih
all the appliances that artificial distinction can confer, is disposed very
naturally liy his own personal feel
ings to adopt those opinions which
tend to secure and. perpetuate those
advantages. On the other hand, the
man who l.as been oppressed by adverse circumstances, is disposed by
his own natural inclinations to
adopt the very opposite views. And
hence it is that we find such a diTer
ence of opinion between thewealth}'
and influential on the one hand, ant
the lower working classes on the
other. A man's political opinions

CLASS TREE EXERCISES.
Last Wednesday, the Seniors wen>
in all their glory. If any one ol
them had previous to that time
been lacking in dignity, or any of
those superior attributes of person
and manner which readily distinguish the Senior from the common
Junior and the plebian Sophomore,
he acquired them all on that occasion. And well might such an occasion call forth the dormant pride
and gravity of the most jovial and
undignified, for such an event as the
planting of a class tree is not without significance, and not until
that time is it possible for the
student to realize that he has
truly leached that serious point
of his college existence where
rendered all the more propitious by
the friendliness of Nature, who laid
aside her frigid aspect for the while
and put on her richest charms, to
IK; in full accord and sympathy
with the occasion. The exercises
>vere opened with prayer by the
class chaplain, Mr. W. H. Quarterman, after which the president of
he class, Mr. E. J. Bondurant, in
reduced the class poet, Mr. P. H.
Kstes. His poem was a gem of sim
plicity and beauty, and reflected
4real credit upon the poetic genius
fits author.
The next feature of the programme was the depositing of a
jnade lull of dirt, by each member
of the class, around the roots of the
tree. As each one advanced in his
urn, a few silly numb-skulls in the
sack-ground, whose preppish actions
would have declared them Freshmen were they not known by their
faces to be the black sheep of the
Sophomore class, would indulge in
personal remarks of such a coarse
and unrefined character as to provoke the disgust of everybody, and
elicit severe criticism from strangers. Those of us who have met
such persons, have felt constrained,
as fellow-students, to defend their
claims to tiie title of gentlemen; but
we trust that the next time they
venture out on public occasions,they will not leave their credentials
at home and force upon us the un
pleasant necessity of reconciling
their conduct.
The last and crowning feature of
all was the Class Song, for the success of which so much is due to the
kind assistance of Miss Ellen Mell.
As the mellow strains of "Come,
dear comrades, let us sing," to the
tune of ''When the swallows home
ward fly," was wafted ou the soft
breezes of the evening, all thoughts
of a light and trivial kiud gave way
to those of soberness. If there was
a single chord that did not respond
to the pathos of the poem, it certainly did to the melody of the song.
The heart of the most obdurate was
touched, and as "music hath charms
to soothe the savage breast,'' con-
science for awhile retiiried to the
demons in the back-grquid. After
a benediction by Dr. M«ll theexer
cises were declared complete, and
the crowd dispersed.
:
Thus closed the Class T ee exercises, and as the day gave p omise of a
bright sun-set at its close, so each
Senior felt constrained t< hope that
Providence might spare the life of
the tree they had plants until, in
its towering form and spreading
branches, it should vie wi:ii the aged
oaks around it. It is tie fervent
wish of the REPORTER tha the hopes
of the Seniors may be i.i'Hindautly
realized, and that eapl one may
bring his chi'dren and) liis gran d
children to its trunk, ati<l tell them
the story of his college dsivs beneath
its ample shade.

The costumes worn were all handsome and suited to the ocoasion. A

"chips" from Dickens, in which all

programme was conducted in a very
happy manner by Bryaut Collier.
Miss Blanche Lipscomb, by special request also recited several extracts in her usual charming and
talented manner.
At half past ten the guests were
ushered into the supper room, where
the table was groaning beneath its
load of delicacies. It can be safely
said that no finer table of fruits and
ices was ever set in Athens.
The company departed at halfpast eleven with the consciousness
of never having spent so agreeable
an evening before.
