intervening between jamestown, tho first cani-

over 2, 900 people, and now it is reducad In
about half that number. William md Mary

war BY B. s. Ewell, brothar to the aged rebeI

tality, 60 that the pupils left to claim tho Same
alma mater here with Jefferson, Madison, Mon.
roe, John Marshall and Winfield Scott. seemed
to me to be very little boys. scarcely biz
enough to go to grammar school. Tho row
enues OF the college arc in 4 bad way: tho
part OF country formerly tributary to it has
been gutted and rasaged, and tho college ia
hardly rs populous or as consequential N the
State Lunatic Asylum, which is also a feature
1t Williamsburg, and both arc roouy, yener-
lble, and sleek1y edidces Of brick.
