Tha late Eek Presidents, JEFFERSON S ADAMS,
having been honorary members of the Columbian
Institute, that Society some time ago appointed
two of lis resident members to deliver, before it,,
Discourses on the lives characters, and public
vices, of those eminent patriots and fathers of the
Republic. The first of these Discourses was de-
livered on Saturday last by SAMUEL HARRISON
SMITH, Eco. on the life and character of Mr..
JEFFERSON lin the Hall Of the Institute, and in
the presence of large invited auditory of ladies
and gentlemen, and full assemblage Of the Soci
ETY., comprising the President of the United
States, president Of the Institute) the Heads of
Departments, many members of Congress, and
other public functionares, foreign as well as do
nestle. The discourse was highly appropriate.
and the qualification which it afforded to The select
and discriminating audience that heard it, was, we
believe, unmingled and without exception. The
Orator had the advantage of having enjoyed long
personal acquantance-w might perhaps say in
timacy-with the iIlus,rious subject OF his Euo-
gy. This circumstance combined with the gene
raj fitness OF MI Smith for the interesting task
assigned to him, rendered his selection for it very
judAcious, and he acquitted himself in manner
that did full credit to the choice of the Institute
We have understood that the Eulogy on the
other departed patriot and sage is to be delivered
| BY Chief Justice CRANcH, OF which we presume
due notice will be given. Nat. Int.
The Nashville Wing of the 23d ul,. says
" Another scene of bloodshei has recently been
witnessed in this vicinity. MIR. Peyton Randolph,
OF Rutherford county, was wounded few days
since in conflict with his brother-n- law, Mr. a.
+. Keebe, asd died in a short time The nature OF
| the controversy unable TO state, nor do we
know who was the agstessor. The matter will, no
doubt. be made the subject of judicial c,tigaton
The parties, we understand, were by theinselve s
at the time, and 1t may be difficult TO ascertain the
| particulars. They can probably be learned only
from preceding and subsequent circumstances and
from the statement of the survivor hmself.''
