my blue broadcloth cloak into the one horse wagon
of an individual, who, with his wife and a small
child, was crossing at tie same time. The wife
knew of the fact, for it was to her I addressed
myself. When I arrived at the la: ding, I came olf
leaving my cloak, which was carried off by the
individuals a luded to. The lady, if I mistake not,
told me they were moving Com South Carolina to
the western part of this State, (Georg a). If any
kind friend could give me the clue to their names,
or the place to which they were traveling, so that
I may obtain my valuable eloik, he would confer
a favor upon one who at limes is too forgetful for

.. C *] T l ,n ? penal size, from the 10th of May to
j. trie Itthof November next, for One Dolla? in
: a vance. As its name indicates, it will be devoted
exclusively to the cause of Reform, the elevation
of WILLIAM HENRY HARRISON, of Ohio, for
President, and JOHN of Virginia, for

Administration,—the necessity of relorm in which
is Le oming every day more and more apparent. —
It wi ] observe a mild, dignified tone, and address
itself to the common sense of every class of citi

i.u- I iospcctus is issued under the impression
that the friends of reform will make a united and
zealous elFort to give the papier a general circula
tion, in short to send it to the house of every man
who reads. The People want light, and if our
friends will aid us in our work, we shall be able to
counteract the thousand calumnies of the Van
Buren presses, and carry the “war into Africa.”—
In the language of a distinguished co-worker, “All
we ask is to be heard by the people. It is for
them we speak, and if we can get a hearing, we
have no fears of the result,” even in Georgia.—
The people will vindicate their wrongs, and hur
their oppressors from office.”
We ask the press throughout this and the ad
joining States, to insert our Prospectus, and we
especially invoke the fricncs of the cause to be
vigilant in procuring subscribers and forward thei
names by mail as early as possible.
The paper will contain nothing but leading mat
ter, being entirely free from all advertisements,
and is p aced at so low a price as to bring it within
the means of every man.

R ANA WAY from the subscriber, on Tuesday,
, the 29th ult. three Negroes : One man, by
the name of Miles, spare made, down cast look,
thick lipped, and when spoken to, is slow in an
swering. If taken u-i and noticed closely, his left
thumb has been bitten ; and is a pretty good fiddler,
wore ofl’ a white straw hat. His wife Hannah, a
stoutly made negro, of rather a yellow complexion,
witii a small sore on one of her cheeks, not now
recollected which. When spoken to, her counte
nance rather mild, and speaks very proper for a
negro, and can face the interrogator well. She has
vvilh her a child, about 2 years old by the name of
Amanda, of a nice copper color, with the features
of her mother. Any person apprehending sMd
Negroes, and putting me in possession of them,
will receive a liberal reward.

tion of a limited number of Boys. His residence is
i near Clarksville, Geo.
In assuming the responsibilities of a Teacher, it
is his intention to have the best professional aid to

I nary in the heart of the South —in a region which
for the purity of its atmosphere and magnificence
of its scenery, has become a favorite abode for the
wealthy and refined; the determination of the
Principal to make every effort to establish at home
an institution where a well grounded and liberal
