UNION OF COLLEGES

The subject of uniting the two Colleges in west
ern Vermont has of late been topic of CONVEX
sation among the friends Of collegiate education
in this state and elsewhere. This is by no means
new idea; as far back as 1919 the respective
Corporations appointed Committees to consider
and report upon the practicabiity of such union
That attempt was not successful
We understand that gentlemen of high standing
in otherStates and many friends of sound learning
in Vermont, have, during the past year, expressed
an earnest wish that another attempt should be
made to attain an object which to them seems so
desirable. To meet what appeared to be public
demand, the Corporations of the two Colleges
at their recent annual meetings appointed Com
mittees again to consider this question. Those
committees we hear, have recently held prelim-
mary session, but have as et..5ome to no definite
result. Among the very difficult questions con-
nected with such IN effort that of location is not
the least. We are authorized to say however,
that nothing has yet TRANSFERRED which can justify
any opinion as to probable results.

That officer, with McClenahan and Qui-

On the 18th of June, in pursuit of horses
belonging to Capt. Horine's company,
which had been stolen the night previous,
when the camp was attacked. They were
expected TO return the next day, but did
not, and fears were entertained that they
might have been killed. On the fifth Of
July, these suspicious were realized, as in
formation was then received from Mex

PARTICULARS OF CAPT DE RUssY's Ex-
PEpIrIoN.-The first detachment had
marched up towards their place of destln-
alton. unmolested, until they came IN
narrow pass-several miles from Huejutla,
when they were surrounded BY twelve or
fourteen hundred Mexicans, who COM
menced heavy fire on them from all d.
rections. Captain Wayne got his piece
of artillery to bear on them; after giving
them six or eight rounds of grape, which
cut lanes through their lines, they gave
way, and fed through chaPParal, on
each side of the road. This was on the
morning of the 18th. They continued
fighting their way back towards the river.
at intervals, when they were released by
the reinforcement of $50 men sent by Col.
Gates.-They returned to the city late on
the night of the 10th inst, with aloss of
twenty killed, ten wounded and two mis-
sing, and fifteen or twenty horses, and six
ty pack mules. Iregret to state that Capt
BOYD was the first who fell, with three balls
through the body. Also, his first Lieuten-
ant fell, MORALLY wounded, and was left dy-
ing on the field. Col De Russy had sew
eraI balls through his clothes. Capt. Wyse
had three horses shot from under him. The
Mexican loss. by report of Mexican, was
$50 killed and wounded. Their General
fled, and left the charge to the second in
command. The names of the officers who
accompanied Col De Russy are not recol-
lected.

INDIA AND CHINA.

On the Doth of July the Calcutta mail
arrived at London. The news is not i'm
portant. India remained tranquil.
The state Cf affairs in China was still
unsatisfactory.-Up TO the Odd May, when
the last accounts left Canton, all business
remained suspended, and fresh disturban-
ces were anticipated. The mob had me-
naced the Governor, Keying, for his re-
cent concession TO foreigners, and threat
cned to burn his palace if he attempted to
give effect TO the terms of the treaty; es-
pecially as regarded concession to the
English of adequate land for dwellings,
warehouses, Sc on the Honan side OF the
river, a site for the erection of church,
in the vicinity ofthe present factories, and
space for the formation of cemetry at
Whampoa. Mr.. Pope, who had been APP
pointed to examine the grounds for these
purposes, had been obliged to abandon the
attempt. Under these circumstances. a
fresh expedition against Canton was ex-
pected. The Pluto was stationed oppo-
site the British factory, and the Scout was
ordered TO approach as near as possible TO
the city.
A letter published in the London Times,
from Hong Kong, Of the 24th May. states
that the latest Intelligence that had been
received in the Island from Canton repre-
scented that city to be perfectly quiet, as
