The following 10 IN extract. fiere iol-
lows the article from the Berlin State Ga
zette, above quoted.
This is the first official announcement
made by the Russian Government of its
views and intentions regarding the course
about to take place in Belgium; but these
views and intentions had been known to
tho French Government few days be-
fore. Baron Werthcr had explained them
verbally to the Duke dc Broglie, and he
continues to assure this Government that
the corps of observation about to assemble
on the Rhine w,i, remain stationary there
so long as the coerciye means about 10 be
employed do not extend beyond the stipu-
lations made in the London Convention.
The Prussian Government seems to rely
most fully on The good faith of the present
Ministers Of France, and does not fcnr
that they would continue the war after its
proiessed object has been attained, or
that they would wish to take uny other
advantage Of the success of the French
arms. But the Prussan Government APP
pears to think that no reliance is to be
placed in the stability Of the present Min
istry, nor on the pacific sentiments of the
men who may come into office in case the
state Of public feeling and the votes OF
the Chambers bring about a change in
the Cabinet. 1t is, therefore, solely with
the view of being prepared for the conse-
quences of any change Of men and meas
urcs, that the Prussian Government thinks
it necessary to take precautions. IS

BRowN UNfvERsITy.-We have seen
the Catalogue of this College, for the Ac-
ademical year 1928 from which
il appears that the whole number Of stu
dents now pursuing a course of study in
this Aourishing Institution, are 1872 of
which % nre in the Senior, % in the
Junior, 81 in the Sophomore, and 4l in
the Freshman Classes, and 3 in partial
course.
1t gives US great pleasure to observe
the increasing popularity OF this college,
that it is receiving that support and
encouragement from the friends OF Educa
ton throughout the Country, which it so
justly merits. We believe the require
ments Cor admission are equal and the
whole collegiate course Of studies second
to no University in the United States.
In looking over the studies ofthe present
year, we perceive the Mathematics al
course has been very much shortened, s.
other studies substituted in their stead, Of
I more general advantage and Of greater
practical utility. This is decided i'm
provemont, and undoubtedly, will meet
the candid approval Of every friend Of
Blown Unive:siiy.
The present Fsculty consists Of
| A President,

Professor of Moral Philosophy and
Metaphysics,
4 Professor Of Languages,
Pfofessor Of Ma,hemasics and Nstural
Phiiovorhy,
Professor ofibs Latin Language and
Literaiure,--and
Three Tutorsi--making in all eight
officers ofinstruction--of which tho Pro-
icssor Of the Latin Language and one
Tutor have been added the present year.
u! tho qualifications Of these gentlemen
for the duties incumbent upon them, we
shall say nothing for they are to well

REMINIscENcE.-It was, think, on
the !2d Of February, 1915, that the glad
Ftidings ofa return oil peace reached this
town and in celebration Of the event a
lofty arch Of evergrecns was erected, ex-
tending from the Rising Sun Tavern, (now
Commercial Hotel to the opposite side
Of the street. In the evening, the town
was Illuminated; and, there were suspen-
ded from the top of this arch, in the form
Of a triangle, wooden boxes representing
the United States. The name ofa State
was painted in large letters on tho white
paper which formed the front Of each box,
and the whole when illuminated, produc-
cd grand effect. A large concourse of
people were viewing the triangle as it
was moved to and fro by gentle current
OF air, when unexpectedly, one of the box
es took fire, and wus followed at intervals
by several others. Twas about nine years
Of age at tha time, and it is firmly i'm
pressed on my memory, that when the
first box was in blaze, the exclamation
was general" there goes South Caro-

Termination Of Mr.. .arery.-Ths ex-
animation OF Witnesses closed at Bristol,
on Saturday evening last, ut 4 O'Clock, Of.
ter careful & critical investigation Of 10
dnys.-38 Witnesses were examined on
the part Of the state, and about 80 on tho
part OF the prisoner. Immediately on the
close Of the examination, the counsel for
the prisoner, r. X. Randolph, Esq. en-
tered upon his defence which occupied
the attention Of the Court four hours and
a half the counsel for the State, VIM.
X. Staples, Esq. then commenced an ar.
gument in behalf Of the State, which last
ed l-2 hours, and at 9 O'Clock on Sum-
day morning, the Court adjourned over
to Monday afternoon at 2 O'Clock. Tho
State House was filled at an early hour
with persons eager to hear the result
Tho Court were unanimously of opinion
that the prisoner should be discharged,
and he was thereupon fully discharged,
there not appearing in the minds of the
Court, sufficient evidence to authorize a
committal for trial. A full report of this
examination, we learn, has been taken,
and is now in preparation for the press.
In addition to the testimony of witnesses,
will be given the judgment OF the Cou.t,
which we understand was given at con-
siderable length. 1t will be issued in
few days, in pamphlet form, when all
will have an opportunity TO read ands
judge ofthe testimony for themselves.
The excitement caused by this trans
action has not materially abated. The
Newport, Republican, says" IntelI-
gence SO adverse from what had been
expected, caused great excitement. -
In Fall River, the excitement remains a.
bout the same. A village meeting was
held on Tuesday evening, at which, it
was judged nearly 800 persons were pres
ent. What the result was we have not
learnt
Whether any further proceedings will bs
had touching this matter, we cannot say.
We presume, however, from what we are
able to learn, that there will be farther
investigation. Great zeal, ability and
learning has been displayed by the coun-
sci on both sides, and no case could have
been more thoroughly and critically i'd p
vestigated than this was, and no evidence :
has been omitted either for or against the
prisoner.
