GRAND NATIONAL JUBILEE.
Partasse Otim Memimsse Juvabit.
Having lately perused Burke'g his
tory of Virginia, I discovered that on
approaching thirteenth of Mav, two
centuries will have elapsed t'mce the
forefathers of Virginia, and it may
be -said that the founders f Jorth
Americi landed on the peninsula of
Jamestown It ia impossible to con
template this event without feelings
of reverence and sublimity. Nothing
in any ancient story furnishes any
parallel at once to the humility and
the grandeur of this incident we
read of conquerors leading their thou
sands and tens of thousands, tn the
sack, of cities and devastation of con
tinents, and by the pretended righte
of corqnesr, extirpating or enslaving
their inwjptants ; we read, with hor
ror of i ft? destructive progress of Pi
2arTO and Cfirtez, and the inhuman
syittrns of titil and ecclesiastical
palicv, by which millions of innocent
human beings perished in tprtues,
and agony at the shrine f bigotry
and avarice ; every page a filled with
thg successful ambition of Kings and
the unavailing and impoem smug
gles of suffering humsnity ; every
where j,vict triumphs, virtue is dis
countenanced ; or if some solitary ct
or event, bearing the features r.f h -nor
or the stamp of iadependt-nct a'
pears if by somt generaus effort o.
!y B"me sudden convulsion, we se
a people rising upon their oppres-ors
and establishing a form of govern
ment that promisrsgn ater happiness
and security, we find it fleeting as the
flash, whose short and sudden lit
renders the gloom more awful and
portentous.- The mind is sick with
viewing those scenes of horror am
bloodshed,, this picture of human ca
lamityj and turns away with disgust
to reposr iiself on this grand and con
solatory event. A handful of hardy
adventurers forming the adanced
guard of the distreased, the persec
ted, the virtuous, the brave, the in
dependent of all the nations of the
old world, commit themselves in two
frail barques to the trackless anft un
fathomable deeps of the Atlantic ;
they deliberately forego the tfmfon.
the refreahmenti, the iMXurict &ft i
viliacd lift; they tetr themselves from
the endearing scenes of their child
hoot, the tender tits of affection and
kindred ; animated by the spirit of
generous adventurers- they prepare
themselves to encounter tht danger
of unknown seas, of the howling wil
demess, and of savages, more ten i
ble than ttmpesta cr vfild bttvs.
With what transport must they have
contemplated, after their long and
hazardous voyage, (he magnificent
bay of Chesapeake,- wooded to 9
margin, and embosoming them in i s j
vast amphitheatre of forest I Wc fo?
low them to ihe muth of the majes
tic Powhatan, a name since changed
ifi compliment to a pedant and a ty

tastic costume of nature, follow them
upon its batiks, their faces impressed

wounds antl distresses of our forefa
thers, and like a guardian spirit in
terposing between them and every
danger. The gallant and romantic
Smith, is a striking figure in-the
groupe, and his agency is intimttely
connected with the denouemept ; but
who sh W be able to follow the course
of these striking events. Yielding at
length to labor, tblndustry, to intel
ligence, and to patriotism, the suzV-j
derncft began to blossom as the rose
The haunts of wild beasts became
the habitations of men, and instead
of their bowlings mingled with' the
yells of savages, are now heard the
exposition of law, the discussion of
sciences, and the eloquence of Se
nates ; cities rise as it were by ma
gic ; the arts andsciehcesencoursgid
by an uniestrained enquiry,, extend
widely their empire, whilst liberty,
the first snd greatest of human bles
sings, like th key stone to an arch,
giv a security and permanency to
those great and manifold blessings.

for gratulation & triumph! Compar

thentic, wi'l they trust, deservtht

- The remote causes which have led
to thii vt ntf are to be found in the j
pernicious principles and loosejmn
!ers of some youths who liafe ob
tained admission into the irrttittuion ;
au( i'ill more, perhaps, in thealmos
.t.dimitcd allow ancfc of moner or ot
i edit, given to niany others and.
wmcn, u a societ pi ycung men
whose passions are not vetcorrected
by experience and reflection, are so
apt to corrupt mmdi originally the
most innocent. And although the
dangerous and tinitwful practice of
introducing spirituous liquors into
College, and of frequenting taverns
an other placet ot entertainment, at
late hours- ol the night, was known
or believed to be common among a
portion fcf the students, yet direct &
peeitive evidence of these facti could
hot be obtained only against a few.
who were immediately cfismisscd
ft om the oc fety. For the tiioii bold
and artful oiTendere, who, y their
very boldnets commonly rendered
themselves popular among their as
sociate, had too succaaafully esta
blished among ihem this false buj
plausible principle,! that, to give tes
timony ajrainst afe How itudent, how
ever gross his vices or faults might
be, was in the highest degree disho
norable. Any evidence, therefore, a
gainst this claU cf students, on which
an act of discipline could be founded,
must depend entirely on ihe vigi
lance and pergonal observation of the
faculty themselves. And iho' thev
were much the smallest class, yet
hey were able, under the protection
of this principle, frequently to give
great disturbance to the order of thr
College, at different periods durinp
the late session ; and towards th
floae of it. their insolence assumed
a bolder tone. The door and win
dows of the room of eneof the tutor.,
who had been the cause of the di
rection und punishment of some of
them, were broken.! Atutnpts had
been made at midnight to destroy
certain convenient enclosutas, be
longing, and contiguous to the C l-
lege, and one small building was ac-
uaiiy consumed by lire.
They were informed thatiiltboiirh
the faculty had no authority to pu-
nisft, except on clear atd posiiive
proof, yet that the trustees, whose
properly the colleee ie, aod who wen
to assemble in a few days, hadptjfrer
to send away all those stu dent whoee
presence lhay esteemed deng-nous
to .he institution ; and the miscon
duct of some of them had now ren
dered the intrrpoiion of that power
a measure of mdisptnsible ner verity.
These who were most conscious sf
being exposed to the exercise of that
power, which is the last reiort of the
discipline ot the (.allege; from that
moment, i hat appeared sinee bv
the confession of scversl of the stu
dents, planned a cerabination to re
s ;st the authority of the heuse, and
thus to screen themselves, or to di-
mit.ish their own diserace bv involv
ing others in their fate. This com
bination was hastened, and brought
into immediate operation by an act
ot ihe tacul'y, suspending three of
the students for insolence to certain
officers oftheCbllege isi the discharge
rt ibeir duty, er t.jr other practices
contrary to the taws, and clearly as
curtained. One of these yount: men,
especially, was popular among' his
associates. Many ol the more or
derly student!, , and tome who even
deserved praise for theif regularity
and diligence, were induced to enter
into this aombination from the notit.n
thatii wus honorable to come forward
ia the deft nee of a illov student,
and, iiiomeof thrm have since de
clared, from a btlief that a firm as
ocittion would induce the faculty to
rcc&l their act, k yield to the wishes
of the aiiociatoia without producing
any further disturbance. They had
probably, no appreheosioh of the vio
lent cHVcU of the excited Damons
m
;oi such a number of youn? men, who
aao once thrown then selvcs looie
from the restraints of law. Many
have ssia'hat thV believed no more
was designed than a respectful pen-
ion to the faculty, requesting them
to review their proceedings, in the
case ot tne last mentioned young gen
iemea, and under this impression
signed, without reading, the remou
rnce which was prrstAted. Bu
he leaders in this combination had
hr addrrss to egress taeir rernon

tne name of a p-trian, in such lan

Thit ppper was presented tooneii
of the professors, in the. name of th

admissinn inta Jjthe College, and at
the commencement pf each session
they had solemnly pledged their truth

a severer punishment on each indi
vidual than if the offence intended
had been committed in his individual
capacity, whatever be the number
cancerned, or whatever the conse-r
que nee te the College." On the
ground of this law, the students were
intnrmcd that nothuig could be cotv

in his transaction did not return tc
