FEDERAL COURT.
Yesterday, the Court decided to grant
William Bowler new trial, upon the ge-
neral ground that no person ought to have
communication with the jury on the ma
ture OF their duties, i'll their retirement;
and that if they wished any information,
thew must come into Court and receive it.
We are informed by the Deputy Mar
shall, that in this case, on Saturday last,
it was only because he was apprised by
the Jury of their wishes to have ascer-
tanned how they were to bring in their
verdict, that he returned to the Court and
communicated those wishes to the United
States Attorney-who informed him,
that if thew found him guilty on all the
counts in the Indictment, they were to
bring in a verdict of guilty generally, but
ii found guilty on some, and not on the
others, they were to specify those of
which they found him guilty. The jury
stated that the communication made by
the Deputy Marshal on Saturday, had no
effect on their Eiinds,

COLUMBIAN COLLEGE.

COLUMBIAN COLLEGE.
Some account of the progress of this
institution, SO interesting to the commu-
nifty in general, and to this District in par
ticular, it is believed will not be unac-
ceptable. The beautiful scite on which
the college is located, commanding an ex-
tensive prospect Of the cities of Wash
ington, Alexandria, 4 Georgetown, Fort
Washington, and the Potomac as far as
Mount Vernon, is eminently calculated
to elevate the mind of the student, and
aid the human intellect in its efforts to
embrace the whole circle in which it is
destined to reyolve Commensurate with
its object, are the plans which the found
ers OF this institution have devised for its
future prosperity; and it is confidently
believed. It's operations will be commenc-
ed upon the most liberal principles, and
on scale that will entitle it to rank "a
NOM the most respectable seminaries of
learning in America.
Asrceably the provisions of its char
ter, the Trustees assembled at the Col
lege, on College Hill. on Monday, the
5.n Of March, and Resolved, unanimous
ly. That the act Of Congress, entitled
= an act to Incorporate the Columbian
College IN the District Of Columbia"
apprOred Feb 9, 1921, be receiued as the
charter Of this Institution,
The Rev Obadiah b. Brorn was then
elected President of the Board of Trus-
tees, Enoeh Reynolds, Esquire, Secre-
tary, and the Reverend Luther Rice,
Treasurer.
The Board has since been actively en-
gagged in concerning measures for bring
ing the College into operation at as early
a day as practicable. The College edifice
is nearly completed, and calculated for
the comfortable accommodation of 100
students. Two dwelling houses are now
in a state of forwardness, and will be fin
ished in the course OF the present season,
for the residence of Professors The
Trustees have resolved to open the Col
lege for the instruction of students in the
various branches ofliterature and science,
on the second Wednesday in Jan. next
10 be divided into four classes, each Of one
wears duration, agreeably to the general
plan of Colleges in the United States; al
the close of which graduates will be en-
titled 10 the first degree in the arts.
AT subsequent meeting of the Board
of Trustees, for the purpose of electine
the Faculty
The Rev. WILLIAM STAuGHToN, Of
Philadelphia, ID. ID. was unanimously
elected President of the Columbian Col.
lege.
The Rev IRA CHASE and Mr.. ALvA
woops, were unanimously elected Pro
fessors.
The annual commencements are intend
ed to beld on the third Wednesday of De
cember, when the degrees will be confer.
red and diplomas granted.
A committee, appointed for that pur-
pose, it is expected, will shortly publish
an address to the public on the subject Of
opening the College, and communicate
such information as may be interesting to
those who may be induced to patronize
the establishment, and avail themselves
ON behalf of their children and wards, oil
the advants ges which it may afford.

L0age0itg. j. a common opinion. that
every generation Of man i less N stature, as
well a. shorter lived, than that which preceded
III. The author II Wayery has sbewn, from
an examinations Of the stones into which the
Devil long ago converted a refractory WITCH
and her flock, that old women and geese are
much smaller now-a days than they formerly
were and It seems quite settled, that every
thing in This world grows less aud less, except
taxes and straw bonnets Whether there -
any chance that these also may be diminished
~ The course of ages, we know not, but We
hope So The life also, as well as the stature,
is shorter. There are now very few giants
with three heads. and we cannot say are
sorry for il ; but we should like 70 meet with
man seven or eight hundred years old he
would be able TO tell US many strange tales,
and, we suspect, would make an excellent Ed
ilor Of a Newspaper. But, alas there j. no
hope that we shall ever Ue blessed with such
sight; for il we listen to The croakers OF this
age, man of forty has already one foo! IN
The grave, and a. for the women, they wither
from their cradles. To prove, however, that
times are not quite 50 bad as some good people
would have them 70 be, we can state, that
there are now living, within one mile OF the
White Horse Inn, il Myerscough, about six
miles from Preston "a district not remarkably
populous mo fewer than 27 persons, the young
est Of whom is 70, and three Of them SO years
old, and The total amount Of whose ages Is
