there as we came up this morning They
so surprised us, after waiting for their ap-
pearance for two years past, that we were
almost ready to stop before them and
ask: Where did they come from %
The heavy rain Of last night quickly an
swered the other question: "Where are
they going to-" But the good work is now
fairly begun-thanks to all concerned. Let
there be no time lost, gentlemen. The

most popular officers of different Universe
ties and Colleges call it with pride their
alma Mater.
1t is gratifying to be able to state that
some of the chief difficulties under which
Columbia College has been laboring fer
several years, are now in a fair way Of
being removed. By the liberality Of MIR.
Withers, (of tue firm of Seldom, Withers &
Co., who he's made the College donation
of ten thousand dollars, the institution will
undoubtedly soon be placed on a permanent
and prosperous footing. 1t has been highly
favored, of late, in the very devoted and
highly efficient services Of Rev. Alexander
Broaddus, D. D., Of Virginia, who is now
its acting General Agent. We commend
the reverend gentleman and his important
mission to the liberal patronage of the
citizens of our District
We have not copy Of the catalogue of
Columbian College before US, or we should
be happy to enter more fully into particu-
lars. DuC we Will avail ourselves OF the
first favorable opportunity to obtain all the
facts with regard to its official mana cement.
and submit them to our readers Our per-
sonal acquaintance with three of the men,
brs Of the Faculty-Dr Bacon, the Presi-
dent, and Professors Huntington and La
thaR-abuudantly warrant us in assuring
the public that the studies and regulations
of the College will be all that its most de-
voted friends could reasonably expect
These gentlemen we know to be possessed
of the very highest neral and mental quail
fications for their positions We feel entire
confidence in assuring the people of he
country, who may wish to send their sons
to enjoy the rare advantages of a national
institution like Columbian College, located
at the seat Of government; that the Board
and Faculty of this institution will exert
themselves to the utmost to give entire
satisfaction to all who may favor them with
their patronage.
We will recur to the subject in few

COLUMBIAN COLLEGE.

We have devoted the columns of the Eve
ming Star to the best interests of all parts of
our city. Hence our articles have been di-
rected to abuses that exist and to improve
ments that are required in some of the
most distant portions of the metropolis.
The Columbian College, situated on a
beautiful eminence in the Northern section
of the city, is one of the best institutions of
Washington, and merits a fair share of, the
attention and patronage Of our citizens. 1t
is one OF the oldest seminaries of learning
in the country. Some Of the most infiuen-
tial of our public men have graduated from
within its classic walls. A number of the

FILTERING WATER.-The following COM
munication, written by DIR. Gideon B. Smith,
and published in the Baltimore Patriot, NAV
be interesting to those of our readers who
use hydrant water:
II would suggest to the citizens of Balti-
more very simple plan for straining all
their hydrant water, which, at this season
of the year, is matter of some Importance
to delicate palates. Take about quarter
of yard square of good fine flannel, and tie
1t firmly over the mouth of the hydrant
spout leaving small sack or bag, of the
size of goose egg, in the centre CT the fan
mel. The writer has fixed his hydrant in
this way, and it proves periodically effect
ual. At this time the little horse snake or
ell is very abundant in all the streams and
pools of water, and frequently makes it ap-
pearance in the hydrant water, and the
above plan will certainly catch it. This lit
tie reptile is believed to be perfectly harm
ess. 1t is generally supposed to be pro-
duced from horse hair that has fallen in the
water. This is, Of course, ridiculous COM
mon error. 1t is, like all other organized
beings, animal or vegetable, regular or

A VENERABLE DIVINE.

The Rev DR.. Sharp, of Boston, one of
the oldest and most excellent of the minis
ters of the Baptist denomination has recently
been much Frustrated by disease, and has
come to this vicinity with a view to recruit
ing his health.
A gentleman writing to Northern paper
abiding to the aged and good man, says:
"The writer spent an hour with him o
few days since, at the beautiful country re-
sldence of K. 2. Brown, esq near Baltimore,
an elevated, and as healthy spot as can
be found in the country. The weather has
been for the most part mild, not unlike the
weather at Boston the last of May The
trees have been in blossom, and everything
breathes the freshness of Spring. This has
had the effect of giving DR.. S. increased Wig
or. He takes his walks and short drives
with considerable degree of pleasure. He
does not perceive any change in the disease
which has Frustrated him, but feel some
what stronger. He could not be more plea
sanity situated. He could hardly 90 to
place where he would find friends more
warm hearted than here.
IS He is surrounded here by old friends of
forty years standing. He has, also, before
oil other friendships, the cheering compan
ionship Of his devoted partner in life, and
ABOVE all, the presence and support Of the
sure rock, Jesus Christ, whom he has faith
July served for half a century. If he fluids
that his strength keeps up he will probably
remain here for several weeks longer"
Many hearts in Washington will unite in
the prayer that the health of DR.. Sharp
may be speedily restored.
