t^Jowi Mb Ian Cpvlkuic.?The exercises at the
Commencement ?f the Columbian College, of
which we yesterday made bjjef mention, were
equal in interact to thoa? of any former year,
and the order of talent and extent Qf ?oquir?
(rnent displayed by the members of the graduat
ing class speak volumes in praise of the insti
tution under whose auspices they hare received
the preparation necessary to . enable them to '
enter upon the stage of life with a rich promise I
of future usefulness U> society, honor to them
selves, and credit to their Ahim Afutvr. The
orations pronounced by the graduates were ill
w^l written and well delivered, and contained
lues of the vapid declamation of the schoolboy
-tjgin if usually heard upon such occasions.
Where all acquitted themselves so well. It 1s
hardly fair to particularize: but we may say,
without disparagement to the other orations,
and without pretending to pronounce authori
tatively upon their respective merits, that we
were most pleased with the one entitled "popu
larity," by William Y. Titcomb, of Massachu
setts; and another by Mr. U. S. Willey, of Vir
ginia, on " Modern Eloquence." To these two ]
we are inclined to believe public opinion will
award the palm of superiority. The former,
besides containing many just ideas, happily
conceived, and expressed in pure and polished
language, was, we think, deoidedly the beat
delivered.
The oration of Mr. Willey evinced powers of
sarcasm and criticism not often possessed by
so young a man, and discovered a mi^id ac
customed to appreciate things at their ;true
value. We would venture the prediction that
tinsel will never be palmed off upon-him for
gold; and if some of the pretenders to science
and wisdom of all Borts, with whom our lfind is J
| so copiously favored, had been preBenjt, w?
' think they might have received some littlf ben
efit, especially if it be true, as some " knights
of the ferulo" assert, that castigation produces
improvement; and we are inclined to tlAnk?
and that of course without meaning any thing
disrespectful to them?that some of our worthy
clergy, who are given to the practice of divi
ding their instructive discourses into ten or a
dozen distinct heads, might have received a
useful lesson from the analysis the talented and
witty young speaker made of such compositions,
and the amount of thought he proved that they
embraced. It is true that the observations of
the orator were not addressed to the class allu
ded to, nor aimed at any particular class; bat as
they are applicable to them as well as to others,
we have taken the liberty ourselves of making
the application.
?lu our account of the commencement
of this Institution yesterday, the name of Mr.
Peyton K. Randolph should have appeared in
the list of candidates on whom the first degree
in the arts and sciences was conferred.
Cuu for Headache.?A gentleman writes
to us that the following recipe has been pre
sented to him by a lady whose faith is strong
in its efficacy:
Sick Headache cubed bv full Inspira
tions.?By M. Tavignot.?"It was in the fol
lowing manner that I discovered the efficacy of
this new and apparently strange method for the
I cure of this affection. In October last I was
I attacked with pain and weight in the head, a
nausea, a physical and mental prostration, &c.
Experience taught me that 1 had to remain in
this state for twenty-four hours. I concluded
that this peculiar state of the nervous centres
might depend upon a stagnation of blood in the
venous Binuses of the dura mater, as M. Ausias
Tusenne supposes; or upon an imperfect aeration
of this fluia. I immediately commenced ro
up irin^ freely and ftilly during several minutes,
i perceived a sensible relief, which induced me
to continue, aud in a short time I was cured.
I got ap and undertook my usual occupations,
as I felt bat a slight pain in my temples, which
vanished in a quarter of an hour. This result1
was doubtless agreeable tt) me, as it furnished
me with a new and practical remedy. In ten
persons, upon whom it has been tried, one-half
have found instantaneous relief, and in the
others there has been an amelioration or a com
plete failure."

The Pui.?1t.?Memrt. Editors: 1 suppose you
will allow a hearer of Mr. Orvia, of Baltimore,
I on Sunday last, to bear a public testimouy to
' the great ability and shining promise of a young
gentleman not yet twenty-six years of age.
Mr. Orris not only proved himself familiar
with the Soriptures, buteviuced a clearness and
force of intellect very rare fbr one of his years.
Among other interesting positions assumed by
him was that of planting himself upon the liv
ing oracles of God, as the only infallible rule of
faith and practice in religion.
He assumed, and supported with great show
of reasuiv*?observing thd utmost decorum, and
even courtesy towards all dissenters from him? |
that the introduction of all articles of faith,
rules of decorum and discipline, with all and
every formula, compiled and adopted by human
skill and wisdom, as rules of faith and practioe,
were wholly unnecessary, and constituted the
principal cause of the divisions now existing
among Protestants.
It is not my purpose to undertake a defence
of Mr. O.'s peculiar views, or even to intimate
my concurrence with him ; but merely to draw |
public attention to a source of intellectual en
tertainment.
He is connected with that society calling
themselves Christians or Disciples, and mav be
heard when in this city at the Medical College,
corner of F and Twelfth streets. I

I saw whero jealousy and assassinations come
from, and how the regular habits and bvuu4 cva
stftutions ot many Americans, military and
I ofrviHanh, become, but too often, undermined and
broken doaro. i
Most of the party seemed to enjoy themselves
very much, though to me there waa very little
i gratification apart from the nqvelty. For a time
, '?*? dancing and changing partners, and (to forth,
went on pretty orderly; bat by-and-by, when
the roused blood excited, and the honriblfarliquors
stimulated, the assembly became tuinifltuous,
.and more than one of the American visiters be
0utragcously. Towards the conclusion
or the bayL most of the gentlemen selected a
lady, and retired with her from the scerfe.
Although I took no part whatever in the
affair beyond spectatorship, a waiter wai poked
at me, and my pocket lightened uh ptto, or sil
ver dollar. By this method are contributions
raised id meet the supplies for candles and
musio, and, no doubt, to support the family
giving the fandango in idleness the rest of the
time.
When thoroughly satisfied with seeing the
fiintliiugo, I left,' miniit my castor, for 'during
the latter history of the evening one or two of
? the gentlemen present?Americans, of course?
took it into their heads to diversify the amuse
ments by a busy game at football. In default
of the legitimate instrument of sport, they fell
foul of all the hats and caps about the room,
aoid mine they had so abused before I discovered
it to bo in their possession, that when I did
1 let them take theif full f\in out. The next
day I was, with some others, compelled to pur
chase a new tile.
The Sxumeiui of the DaotAnanos ot Inue
pemdencb.?The professions of the Signers of
the Declaration of Independence were as fol
''lows:
Nineteen lawyers, five physicians, six farmers
six merchants, one printer, one shoemaker, six
gentlemen, one sailor, one minister, one sur
veyor^ and one soldier.
Their nativity was as follows:
t,.!Vin? wcre born in Massachusetts, eight in
Virginia, six in Pennsylvania, five in Maryland
two in Rhode Island, one in Maine, twoih Con
necticut, three in New York, three in New Jer- '
sey, two in Delaware, one in England, three in
Ireland, two in Scotland, and one in South
'IYmVB*'
Benjamin Franklin (aged 71) was the oldest,
and Lldndge Gerry (aged 32> the youngest of
? the signers; Stephen Hopkins (aged 6ft) was
1 the next oldest, and Thomas Stone and Thomas
? Jeiferson (aged 83) the next youngest.
Important News from Kossuth.?The Exe
i ter Newt Letter learns by private letters received
1 m that town from "Constantinople, that Kos
? suth has recently stated to a gentleman com
r missioned to visit him at Kutahiah, the place of
- his confinement in Turkey, and inform him of
. the offer of this Government to furnish a free
t passage to and au asylum in the United States,
r that he heu finally resolved to remain in Eutvpe."
^ ^ Desperation.?A letter to the Tributu men
tions the circumstances of a merchant at San
| Francisco, who, having been burnt out of all
t that he owned by the previous fires of that city,
( when the flames of the last conflagration sur
rounded his building in which he had all he
possessed, coolly invited his wife to walk out
aud see the fire; when they had passed into the
street, in a moment of mad phrenzy, he drew a
revolver and shot her through the head, and
then instantly ended his own life with another
shot.
Whoever expects that social institutions are
ever going to be purer or better on the Whole
than the individual characters of those who
form them, looks for an effect without a cause,
and might hope as well to see a reservoir rise
above its fountain. All that ever can be ra
tionally looked for is, that happiness and good
ness, wherever they preponderate in individuals
or society, should become active and try to dis
seminate themselves as much an possible around
them, and thus overcome suffering and vice.
Sizes of Shoes.?The Lynn Directory for
1851 says a size is the length of one "hfriey
corn," or one-third of an inch. A size stick is
thus formed : Take a rule or piece of pine wood
thirteen inches in length, and divided into thir
ty-nine equal parts, of one-third of an inoh each.
I he first thirteen are left blank, and counted
I nothing. The second thirteen are called men's
I and women's syies, each marked from one to
| thirteen. Thus nine inches is a man's size, No.
1; ten inches is No. 4; eleven inches No. 7 ;
and twelve inches No. 10.
lA Discirts of old Izaak.?The BostonPott
says that at the recent dinner in Syracuse, Mr.
Webster stated that his only connexion with
, any State government was a service of ten days
in the Massachusetts Legislature, in which,
"after much reflection," he introduced the bill
now in the statute book, that trout should not
Ih- caught in any other manner than with the
ordinary hook and line.
| The Wtomino Massacre.?Anderson Dana,
esq., died at Wilksbarre on the 24th ult., aged
eighty-six years. He was a boy at the time of
the ever-memorable Wyoming massacre. His
, father and brother-in-law were killed there,
when he fled with his mother, her family, and
j others to Connecticut.
The suits brought against New York and
Massachusetts, by merchants in New York and
i Boston, to recover back bead-money on emi
grants, have been carried by Mr. Webster for
the claimants. A bill passed the New York
Legislature, at its recent session, to refund two
hundred and odd thousand dollars of head
mouey paid by ship-ownera Mr. Webster's
commissions on these suits, and others of a sim
ilar nature, are stated to reach the enormous
sum of $70,000.
GeN. Wiwfikld Soott is sojourning at-Coz
zens's Hotel, West Point, where there is a num
ber of distinguished visiters. Among them we
| notiw the names of Admiral Wormley, of the
British Navy, Judge Wayne, of the United
States Supreme Court, and others.
Lonoevitt.?There are forty-eight persons,
says the Springfield (Mass.) Pott, residing in
that town, who were living when the Declara
tion of Independence was made, and several of
whom nre over ninety years of age.
The venerable Dr. Nott, now in the 97th year
of bis age, was present at the oelebration at
Hartford, Ct., on the 4th instant, and closed the
service in the church by pronouncing the bene
diction.
A strong effort Is making In Boston to es
