Tux Cottace Exminition Last Evextxe — The invitation to the citizens of Washington to Attend the exhibition of the Junior Class of Co- laumbia College, at the Smithsonian Institution, Jast night, was responded to by a vast assem- blage of ladies and gentlemen that filled the floor * galleries of the capacions lecture room to their utmost limit. The utmost decorum pre- vailed doring the entire exercises, and every one seemed pleased. Upon the arrival of the students and professors the band played “Jennie Jones,’ with varia- tions Kev. Dr. Binney, President of the Col- lege, presided. The throne of the Most High — been invoked in prayer by the Rev. Mr. Smith— Mr. Chas. W. Hassler, of Wasbington, was introduced, and turning at first to the venerable President, and then directing his attention to the aadience, delivered, in Latin, the oy ning ad- dress, the style and pronunciation of whic: are said to be classic and the matter excellent ** The Relations of Religion and Liberty’ were then discussed by Mr. John H. Wright, of Nan- semond county, Va., in an oration, contending that Christian civilization was the only founda- tion of rational liberty. Lis delivery was good, as the spirit of his oration was certainly excellent. ‘The next xpeaker, Trezvant Harrison. of Sus- sex county, Va , addressed the large anditory on the * Character of Dr. Kane,” aad paid a glow- ing tribute to the memory of that noble man. The cs orator needs more command of his voice, ut bis elocution was quite creditable. “: Gepthe, the Poet and the Man of Science,”’ an oration of T. Major Freeman, Frankfort Ky, followed. ‘The oration was able, and though the style was at times florid, yet at one time, when the orator introduced a comparison be- tween poetry and science, we knew not which toa ve, the chastity of bis language or the “— of his thought. i: he *‘Frank Polka,” by the band, fillea up then— _Mr. Jobn T.

The young gen- tleman paid many clowing tributes to the glori- ous Commonwealth from whence he come: he oration ‘Intellectual Superiority,” by Robert K.

The speaker was quite youuy, and his advice to young ladies to prepare for maternal duties, avd “his proposition that crinoline and a bonnet might make a bel!e. but could never frame a mother, were received with hearty approbation. . One of the best executions of the Canary Bird Waltz, we have ever hea-d, filled the hail with music for a while, and then the concludin: por- tion of the exhibition commenced by a ¥ ora- tion on “Wit and Humor” from Chas. H. Hass- ler of this city. We dothisgentieman the barest justice, and speak but the universal sentiment of the assembly, when we say the oration was a rieh treat. The whole range of humorous authors, from Goldsmith to Irving, were discussed in a genial spirit; and apt illustrations from their works found, for every turn of his argument; a coinie recitation of one of Hook’s minor Ts Was irresistible, and brought down the house Mr. H needs no local pen to predict his future “The Maid of Orleans’ was the title of the next oration; Mr. Wm S. Wright, of Nansemond Haarge © Virginia, the orator. It was a biograph- ical sketch of the unfortunate Joan of Arc, and closed with a beautiful tribute to her many vir- tues. The exercises, which the large assemblage hed lis ened to with profound attention, were closed with an “‘ Address in Latin® byJohn H. Wright, of Nansemond county, Va . which equalled the opening address in the same tongue. Throughout the whole exercises the audience frequently testified their pleasure in hearty ap- plouse; and, at the close of the various or aS, numerous bouquets went from fair hands as trib- Utes to intellectual excellence. ~The Benedictiou,”” by the Rev. Dr. Binney, closed the exercises, and a delighted audience retired to music.

Reeoiany.—Night before last, the hotel of John Miller at the steamboat wharf, foot of Sixth street, was broken open by some party who, it would be supposed, were anxious to test the qualities of his liquors, the entrance having been made through ove of the bar-room windows. The thieves had not probably been in the house jong before something happened to fnghten them, and they necessarily decamped so hastily that they only had time to abstract « few botties of Hquor and some boxes of cigars which they took alomg with them.

To stop the recurrence of Seok scenes, the Marshal has caused to be posted on the jail door the follow- ing notice, which we publish forthe benefit of the public at large: ‘* Notice.—The number of persons who attend the public jail interrupts the order which ought to prevail there, lessens the punishment which the confinement is intended to create, and ren- ders the custody of prisoners troublesome and unsafe. I direct, therefore, that no person (ex- cept the public officers who have business there, the physician and immediate members of the family of the prisoners) shall be permitted to enter the jail or jail yard. The Jailorand Guard are requested to execute this order strictly. Wx. Se:pen, Marsbal.** In this connection, we transfer to the Star's columns from the States of yesterday, the follow- ing letter from Marshal Selden, which explains the above regulation, and will meet the approbe- tion of all interested in the well being of the Dis- trict of Columbia. Its tenor vindicates most ad- mirably the propriety of President Bachanan’s act in selecting Col. Selden for the position of great- est responsibility among us he fills, as ail will perceive: Wasntncton, May 5, 1858. Dear Sir: I received your letter of the 2d inst., respecting visitors to the public jail. In that letter, yon approve my order placarded on the prison door. You pronounce iy purpose to be wise and prudent -It excludes visitors in the general, but admits the family of the prisoners, under proper circumstances, and the physician and public officera having otticial business about the jail. I never intended to exclude employed counsel, nor spiritual advisers of any pfisxoner under sentence of death, or extreme feebleness of body or mind. All other applicants for ad- mission except in special cases, of which the Marshal must judge,) | shall be constrained to exclude. The administration of justice was plainly de- signed to punish offenders, and solitary confine- ment often constitutes the sole measure of pun- ishment. Public officers should be no respecters cfclasses. If one order of our fellow-citizens can, at pleasure, visit the prisoners, it is not easy to perceive why all others should be excluded. If every person who belicves that his visit to the public jail will promote the cause of humanity and mitigate the evils of crime is to have free in- gress and egress where wholesome privacy should prevail, the legal disposal of offeuders must be- come precarious and unsatisfactory You must be aware that the Dist of Colum- bia bas become a rendezvous for lawless disturb- ers of the public ce. Rufans have become so bold and reckless that they set all heman rights at defiance, and mock the terrors of crimi- nal justice. When tried and convicted, they go only to a prison where they are clothed, housed, fed and doctored at the public expense. And if ladies and gentlemen visit and offer them ¢ versation. countenance, and support, the condiy: punishment which the law directs and intends asa warning example to others, will be plainly and miscbievously counteracted .

I respectfully submit, then, that the generous ladies and pious visitors, whose habit it has been to visit the inmates of the publi: jail, should limit their friendiy offices to a supply of the Bible and such usefal tracts ax may have a tendency to impart religious consolation to distress. The practice which has prevailed, though charitable and well-intended, does not accord with any notions which I bave formed respecting the objects of public policy and ¢ nal justice. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, WILLIAM SELDEN. Geo Wood, Esq. Carusi’s May Batu.—Yesterday, we pub- lished a brief communication from a matron of Washington, calling the attention of all of us, (now fathers and mothers, and, in not a few cases, grandfathers and grandmothers,) who, years ago, as lads and lasses, made Carusi’s Sa- loon ring with our joyous hilarity, to the recur- rence of our old teacher's annual May ball—or festival, as it has come to be designated in these latter times. Weneed hardly say that the appeal of our fair correspondent touched a chord in our breast, which, though unstrung for many years ast, still occupies its proper place in our organ- zation, as, we doubt not, in that of hundreds of our fellow-citizens of both sexes, who, from 1825 to 1835, danced annually on the night of the first of May, in brigbt-bottoned jackets and whi'e trousers, or in lawn dresses, blue sashes and flowing tresses, in Carusi’s Saloon. As this isto be the last occasion upon which our old dancing master will appear in all bis ylory—and Napoleon never loomed out more con- spicuonsly in his,than Carusi, for thirty past, in conducting his annual May balls—we take it for granted that we shall find congregated, under his auspices, at the Assembly Rooms, on Mon- day evening next, huudreds of familiar faces as eagerly watching the enthusiasm of their ehil- dren and grandchildren ax, twenty-five or thirty years ago, their parents and grand parents watched theirs, as they awaited the well-remembe flourish with which Carnsi gave the; the music to strike up. Mutatis mutandis—all the world changes, but Carusi, whose voice, countenance, fisure and flonrish on the occasion, will canse “ bright spots’? to spring up “in the waste of? the “*memory” of hundreds, doubtless.

Correspondence of The Star. “ Guonoztown, May 8, 1858: Business upon our canal, this week, has been quite brisk. Since our report of Thursday 35 boats have arrived, 28 of them from Cumberland with coal, and the remainder from other points with flour, lime stone, grain, &c. The arrivals for the week nmount to 82 boats, 65 from Cum- berland bringing about 6,000 tons of coal to the American and Detmold Companies. The re- ceipts at the Georgetown collector's office ariount to $3,700. This office is in charge of Mr. J. MeHenry Hollingsworth, collector, and Mr. C. A. Peck, deputy ; and we venture the assertion eet te blic office of any kind in the land is res over by two move efficient, accommo- ating and gentlemanly individuals. Some of our uptown people are loud in thetr complaints about the nuisance which they say has n created by the street scavenger placing the manare, garbage, &c.,taken from the streets. on the vacant space at the intersection of High and Market streets. The summer is rapidly ap proaching, and we hope the cause of these com- plaints will at once be removed. We have been requested by some of the Star’s lady readers to say that the Rev. Dr. Smith, of Baltimore, will deliver the annual sermon before the Ladies’ Union Bible Society, in the Bridge street Presbyterian church, to-morrow (Sunday) afie-noon at 5 o'clock. ‘The following shipments of cost have been made from Ray’s dock since our report of Thurs- day: Sehrs B.
