EVENING STAR. “LOCAL UNTELLIGENCE, CoumENCEMENT OF CoLumBlan CoLLEGs.— The annual commencement of this usefal in- stitution was held yesterday in E street Bap- tist ehureh, (Rev. @. W. Samson’s) as briefly stated in our issue of the day. A large au- dience were in attendance, and the exercises were enlivened by the musicof Weber’s band. The young gentlemen of the institution ae- quitted themselves ina eslevnertiny manner; —reflecting credit upon themselves,—while the faculty have reason to be proud of the standard of attainments and talents exhibited by the graduates, a8 manifested in the excellence of the onions delivered, a list ef which we ap- nd : 1. True patriotism. By Thomas M. Scott, of Northampton county, Va. A patriotic and well delivered oration. 2 Acadis ; its settlement and the expulsion of its inhabitants. By James @. Board, of Bedford county, Va. Well put together, and giving evidence of patient research. . 3. The spirit that should accompany our in- stitutions. By J. B. Kidd, of King and Queen county, Va. Sensible, orthodox, and worthy of an older head. 4 The Fall and Future P, ts of Poland. ford county, By Mablon A. Hensley, of Virginia. This oration showed much research in the history of Europe, and detailed the moving causes of the partition and final dis- memberment of that unfortunatecountry. But we doubt much the realization of the hopes of the speaker; which, while they do honor to his head and heart asa lover of freedom and a patriot, are nevertheless but the ex- pression of sympathy for a people worthy of a better fate than total extinguishment. The peroration was truly eloquent. Alluding to the final establishment of the kingdom and the restitution of their ancient rights, the speaker remarked that the ashes of Kosciusko and Pulaski would be gathered together, and, amid the chanting of priests, the thunder of eannou, and the tears of millions, would re- ceive a sepulture equal to that which marked the entombment of the Great Napoleon. 5. The Influence of National Monuments. By Charles H. Utermehle, of Washington City. This speech was brilliant, and eulo- gistic of the virtues of Pater Patria. The pres- ent condition of the Washington Monument of this city was denounced, and a ati: ap- peal made for its speedy erection—that its “summit might pierce the clouds.”” 6 The responsibilities of the man of letters. By George F. Bagby, of King and Queen coun- ty, Va. This, in our opinion, was the best eration delivered. The elocution was better, and a grace of manner, the effect of self-pos- session, gave a charm to the matter spoken. We predict that the yellow-covered novels of the day—those ‘“caterpillarson the tree of knowledge,”’ as they have been aptly termed, will find no favor in the sight of this young gentleman, in his future career, which we trust may be a brilliant one. We published yesterday, the list of those on whom degrees were conferred, failing, how- ever, to add that the honorary degree of Mas- ter of Arts was conferred upon Rey. Alfred S. Patton, of New Jersey ; that of Bachelor of Philosophy upon Kev. Chas. Sexton James, of Lewisburg Academy, Pa ; and that of Doctor of Divinity upon Rev. James B. Taylor, of Richmond, Va. The valedictory was then proneunced by Rev. Dr. Binney, President of the College. In closing this account, we congratulate the young gentlemen upon the success of their several efforts. They bear with them to their homes the best wishes of @ large number of our citizens, whose efforts, with the essential aid of the gentlemen of the faculty of the Col- lege, have been to make it a model institution. We doubt not the graduates will, in the fu- ture, recur to their collegiate course with emo- tions of pleasure, and ever retain for their Alma Mater a bigh and abiding affection. Circorr Court—Several attaching credt- tors vs. McKnight —In this case the follow- facts appeared: Anthony Preston died tate, leaving a large real estate in this city. His widow and heirs applied to the Cireuit Court for the appointment of commis- sioners to make partition of it, which appli- cation was granted. On examining the va- rious parcels of land, the commissioners re- ported that they were so situated that it could not be equally divided. The court thereupon, at the request of the petitioners, directed the lands to be sold, and the proceeds to be divided and paid to the widow and heirs. The sale was accordingly made, and the shares duly paid over, except that of Mrs. McKnight, who was a daughter of Preston. Her husband was inzolvent and largely indebted to sundry judg- ment creditors, who sued out attachments thereon against him, and levied them upon Mrs McKuight’s share, consisting of money and bonds, while in the hands of the eommis- sioners. The creditors contended that the sale, and confirmation thereof by the court, convert- ed her share into personal property, and that as such it belonged to her husband, and became liable to be attached for his debts. lo bebalf of Mrs McKnight, it was insisted that her share of the proceeds of her real es- tate continued hers until he had exercised a lezal control over it A motion was made in her behalf to quash the attachments. During the pendency of this motion, Mr. McKnight died, his wife and two children surviving him. The cases were elaborately argued on both sides. After full consideration, the court held that the attaching creditors acquired no right to Mrs, MeKnight’s share in the pro- ceeds of scid sale, and thereupon quashed the attachment. She will now come into posses- sion of 2 respectable property, sought to be taken from her by creditors of her late hus- band. Counsel for attaching creditors, Messrs. Bradley, Davidge, and Chilton; for Mrs. McKnight, RH. Gillet, and J. M. Carlisle.— Union. 4 Youse Orvexner —The boy Wm. Connor, who was sharged in connection with the boys Wilson and Harrod, with certain larcenies, is only about eleven years of age. The other boys were tried by the Criminal Court in three cases—onvicted in two and acquitied in one. ‘The reiations and friends of the poor child have applied to the District Attorney in his behalf, and we are credibly informed that he pr ui in ve has eonsented to enter a nolle Connor's cases provided bis friends bend in the sum of $500 that he will cut of the District and not return for a spec: fied time. The bond was ready agama aad only waited the approvel of the District Attorney to go into effect. This is another argument in favor of a house of correction for juvenile offenders. Crogem asp Ray.—Marshal Hoover and his deputies are still actively engaged in the ‘earch for those fagitives from: justice. Yes- terday, Mr. Ward, of the jail guard, having under him a number of county constables, left the city for the pur of pursuing them ona track that promi: lead to their lurk- ing place. Atten o'clock none of the posse bad returned, and the Marshal had received he intelligence from them. Itis believed that Kay and Croggin are making their way to- wards Norfolk, Va., with the design of ship- bing #s sailors from that port. Sac sur Vatvante Parext.—Among the TBumerous patents issued this week, is one to our towosman L R. Holmead (assignee) for a "mall article called a shield, to protect breast- Pins or other personal decorations from loss or ‘heft while an use. This invention, although ‘wall, and sold at a trifling price, will prove of great value to those who wear the above “rticles either for their intrinsic merit or as Wewentoes. The shield is entirely concealed from view, aud protects linen or other fabric {rom ordinary wear. Sceoestion —A friend suggest that the *cavenger who is employed on the route that ‘ucludes the southeru part of the avenue and euth street might repair bis cart to advan- tage, judging from the Sppearance of the Mtreeta, it must be in a dilapidated condition. ; Fortmen Heantse —A man named Geo: Anson, Wag arrested to-day for au assault = battery, is which ano er was severely Ldated.

Criuinat Court.—This morning as the re- porter left the court room the court and ju’ were engaged with the trial of Daniel Dw gan, charged with assault and battery with intent to kill A. E. L. Keese, an officer of this county. The clerk’s desks were surrounded by pe-sons who had been summoned to appear before the grand jury, and all the officers of the court were busily engaged.

He was taken before Jus- ti Le hiss ae ES who after examining the testimony, held him to bail for peace. Arrests, &c.—Martha Hall, larceny; jail. Joseph Lewis, breach of peace; security for peace.

Map Doa® ar Larce.—The editor of the Star will add greatly to the safety of our citi- zens, from the attacks of rabid dogs, if he would announce the fact that mad dogs are running at large in the city, and, of necessity, coming in hourly contact with troops of dogs, from the little barking, squeaking fice to the majestic Newfoundler. Is it not in the com- petency of the powers with which the Mayor of the city is invested to issue his proclama- tion commanding all owners of dogs to keep them up during the “ dog days,” and direct ing his police to catch, or shoot, or kill, any and all dogs that may be found at large with or without collars, until the termination of the hot weather? Better that all the dogs in the city should be killed than that the lives of our wives, children, and servants should be in jeopardy whenever business or pleasure may call them out. McK. Warcu Rerorns.—Patrick Flemming, mis- chief; costs and dismissed. Colored boy Dick, a runaway; sent to jail. et Drs. Hunter & Williams. Physicians for Diseases of Throat and Lungs, 52 North Charles street, Baltimore. The practice of Drs. Hunter & Williams is scahaed, exclusively to the treatment ofchronie diseases of the throat and lungs by Medicated Inhalation, and the success that has attended their labors is sufficiently well known. It has demonstrated not only that Bronchitis, Asth- ma, Catarrh and Granular Sore Throat may be permanently cured, but that Consumption in all its stages isacurable disease, and that the direct application of remedies, by means of inhalation, the seatof the malady, instead of giving them by the stomach, (always over: taxed and delicate in these diseases,) must here after be regarded by the profession as the only rational and scientific mode of treatment. ‘arties unable to visit the city may he treat ed by correspondence—medicines, inhaling instruments, &c , being sent to them by ex- press. In order to obtain a proper statement of such cases, a form of questions has been prepared, which will be forwarded by letter. Dr. Hunter or Dr Wittuiams will visit Washington on the 12th and 29th of each month. The next visit will be on Saturday, the 28tb instant, and Sunday the 29th.
