tbeStbof january, 1790, after alluding to
mjqrtaoce'bf the promotion of spienc and
literature, he added, "whether this desirahle.

the denomination of Christians with whom ' it' is

wjWheu r the - question of granting' a charter to
1 Columbian College was before Congress in 1 82 1 ;
several amendments were proposed, for the "pur
pose of placing that institution under the control
of the Government. . Among the.most impor
tant of , these were: That the Secretaries of
tho Treasury, War, Navy, and State depart
ments, the attorney General of the United States,
and the Judges of the Circuit Court of the pis.
trict of Columbia for the time. -being, shall re
spectively beex-officio. trustees of the said ia
stitation.,?, And, " that a visitorial power over
the v said institutton shall bo tested in a joint
committee, to be appointed by the Senate and
House of. Representatives." But none of these
amendments .were agreed to, and the only power
reserved to. Congress, in ,the charter, is that the
Journal i of tb Trustees " shall at all times be
open to the inspection or examination of the
Attorney General of United' States Van d.
whenL required by ; either House , of ,' Congress j
it shall , be , the duty of the said Trustees tq

The Smithsonian Institution, founded and sup
ported by-c a legacy,, is under the -direction of
Congress ; and the ! national1 Institute for the
promotion ' of Science chartered by Congress,
and supported by the contributions of its own
m embers, provides by its constitution that th e
President of the United States and the heads of
he Executive- Departments, shall be cx -officio
directors. " Neither of these are educational in
stitutions. . .7 .7
When the Columbian College was chartered
it was regarded with high expectations not only
by- the individuals more immediately' interested
in its success, and by the community 'generally,
but also by ' many distinguished statesmen, and
divines both. in this country and in Great Britian.
The President of the United States, Mr. M on
roe, expressed bisf" earnest desire that the col-
ege might acfeomplish ill; the nseful purposes
for which it was instituted," and added : 'There

tonozeneous' our citizens can be made in these
particulars, the greater will be crar prospects of
tTTDacent union." .... " -
.-Mr. 'Jefferson also held the" same view of the
kportaace of the measure, but questioned, the
,pts of Coti-ress to efFect it, without an aniend-
eentof the Constithtion. In ' hw - message of
