COLUMBIA COLLEGE.

When men deliberately make up their mnds to
disregard the principles OF honor and fair dealing,
they embark in a career whose end they do not
forsiee. Thisis true enough with obscure persons
and acts of petty wrong, bu. much more is it
true where the parties hold an eminent position
and aim their blow at the entire community,
who're laws they evade and whose sentiment they
contemn. In such cases the deed is sure to co pe
back again and again to plague the perpetrators;
aud even after they fancy it laid in safe oblivion,
it rises like an unquiet ghost to haunt and punish
them.
1t is now nearly year since the Trustees of
Columbia College, after prolonged and thorough
canvass In which even the Alumni Of the insti-
tu,ien took part, rel acted distinguished cav
didate for the Office of Professor of Chemistry,
and appointed smother gentleman OF inferior &C.
complisbments and claims. The ground for this
rejection was VIGOROUSLY the fact that the candi-
date held different theological opinions from these
of the msority, at least, of the Trustees. At
the time, this proceeding was widely discus'etin
the journals, and was finally brought before the
Lepislature 1t wss contended by those who
were moved to resist this act of bigotry, that it
not only violated the spirit of the original char
ter of the College, prescribing that no person
should ever be excluded from its degrees, prlyI-
leges or immunities, on account Of his particular
religious tenets; but also that it cOntravened the
express provision of the Constitution. which says
that no religious qualification or test soall De re-
CURED of any officer 10 any Academy or College.
Hereupon, the Senate appointed Committee 70
investigate the case; that Committee neia /"
sessions in this City during the Legislative Ssca-
ton; and their Report, which was presented In
the Senate yesterday will be found in our columns
hi. morning. The bigotry Of the Trustees was
well nigh forgotten in the rush of other interests
and Affairs; but it is revived BY this Report and
anew stands forth to accuse and condemn them.
We rarely meet with pubic document which
does more complete justice to its subject Or
which treats it in more unimpassoned and sat-
isfactory manner. On the question whether By
