regretted that whole year had to pass
around before another st. Patrick's Day
came.

The COLUMBIA LITERARY AND DEnAT-
ING SOCIETY. .-Columbia has long felt
the want of some literary association,
which would afford to its business men
advantages which they cannot otherwise
OBJ ain. But we now have good reason
to hope that this want will be supplied
in the society mentioned above. This
society has been in operation-part of
the time under the name of "The Co
lumbia Debating Society"-for about
two years past. During that time it's
prosperity has varied through almost
every degree. bnt now, through the per-
severing energy of some Of its members,
it seems to be established on firm foun-
dation. Its constitution provides for
ries. which is composed of those who
feel on interest in the institution, and
are willing to contribute to its advance
ment. They have ell the privileges and
powers of regular members, and are sub
ject to the same duties, except that they
do not participate in the regular aoeekly
debates and ora,ions, and are not re-
quired to attend the meetings of the so.
ciety more than once month. As it is
the purpose of the society to establish
library and reading rooms for the conve-
nience of its members. this class should
comprehend almost every man in Co.
lumbia WHO is not regular debating
member. The society meets every Mon
day evening. The query for discussion
on next Monday is: "Was the Character
of Queen Elizabeth to be Admired?"
We are informed that there will be pub
lie debate before very long, as soon as
the members prove their ability little
more thoroughly in private.
