From the Georgia Journal. \ Letter from Governor Troup. tVe have never attempted to place Governor Troup in any other position than that in which ji P places, and has placed himself. Whenever | ve expressed our opinion with regard t o his , )o siiion on the Presidential question, we gave it, wc know he would himself if called upon to ji so. We know that he was an advocate for a jjvorcc of the Government from Banks, but while advocating the establishment of Mr. Van Buren’s ( ib- treasury, wo also know that he had the most hoiv horror of the corrupt administration of the Federal Government, and that he could not he induced to lend the influence of his name to ad vance his re-election by the people. We also j. neW that Gov. Troup was exceedingly desirous of pieserving the unity of the State Rights party , in Georgia, and that he disapproved of their policy of running Gen. Harrison. But his opposition t o this movement is not because of leant of con fidence in the integrity and honest;/ ot Gen. Harrison, that forms his main objection to Mr. Van Burcn. Not so. But he is nevertheless determined in the present contest, to occupy a neutral position,- and for the benefit of those who ], .ve been using the name of the “old Roman” to advance the pretensions of Martin Van Burcn, vve publish the following letter, to Col. C. Y. p err y of Talbot county ; “Laurkxs, sth July, 1810. “C. Y. Pkbbt, Esq.—Sir: You ha'e seen by the public prints, that consistently with my own principles, I cannot do otherwise than to observe a strict neutrality in the pending canvass foi the ; and I hope my reasons will be sat isfactory to you. Respectfully, G. M. TROUP.” Now, after this, we hope to hoar no more from Mr. Van Buren’s friends, of Governor Troup’s devotion to their cause. We can assure the “Democracy” that he has the most profound con tempt for those who would thus endeavour to place him in a false position. He will support neither candidate for the Presidency cither direct ly or indirectly, and in that position, those who have any respect for his feelings should most unhesitatingly leave him. As much as wc would desire to see him enlisted to support the election of Harrison, wc have too much respect and affec tion for his great and good name to use it in any other way, than Governor Troup himself desires it. We are not his admirers “of an hou and as such, we have determined that he shall not be misrepresented by those, wh« scarce three months ago. were bitter in their denunciations of him. Will the Van Buren papers publish this let ter! From the Southern Christian Advocate. Georgia Female College. IMk. Editor: —It will 1 trust, be a sufficient apology for the following remarks, to say that I have been requested, by several friends of the College, to assign the reasons of my resignation of the Presidency. An institution dependent on pub lic confidence for its existence, and on its patron age for the means of prolonging that existence, might be seriously injured by the mistaken appre hensions that are ofltimes adopted under similar circumstances. Most men regarding the place I have left as one of honor and emolument, and ac customed to consider lhe>e as the great motives of human conduct —naturally enough inquire into the reasons of the case, and being uninformed as :o the fact, lay hold in the eagerness of their search upon those that seem most p ausible, and believe and retail them as true, without any other testimony than the mere aspect of probability. But without farther reflections, I have resigned, not because 1 regard the enterprise a failure, in fact or in pros pect —not because 1 do nut believe the institution to be an instrumentality of great and extensive usefulness, but because high moral considerations compel me on through conviction, to believe that the ministry of the Gospel is my proper—my only work. I accepted the appointment at first, not from inclination, but from the earnest entreaties of brethren and friends, to whose judgments in the case I felt some deference was due. The time for which 1 const rued to take the place has expired.— The expci iment nas been made, and I am perfectly satisfied of the correctness of my first opinions ou this subject. The policy of abstracting effective men from the itinerancy and employing them in the service of education, (although a great and ac knowledged interest) is in my judgment unsound in itself —doubtful as to its Immediate utility—and dangerous as to its prospective bearing. But I will not argue the question. Nor do I condemn those who differ from me. I thinx —feel—decide only for myself. 1 believe 1 have been called of God i to preach the Gospel, and I intend and desire to do j it, with the certainty ol many privations and of 1 auich toil, but adopting the faith of the Christian j instead of the judgment of the world I will shun | no cross and I fear no want. To speak of myself j is no pleasant task, but necessity is laid upon me. ‘ But of this, enough. Kvcry friend of literature —of learning —of wo man, must feel an anxious concern for the pio-- perity of an institution, the most enlarged in its ' plan and® the most extensive as to the course of i instruction, of any ever projecte I for the improve- j meat of the female mind. Without partiality for ! the college, and without compliment to the Facul- | ty, I will say that the instruction of the pupils has j been as thorough, as pnctical, as in any other sem- , inary, male or female, high or low, to be lound in the length and bread:h of the land. The annual examinations have shown as much profici ncy— j promptness accuracy thorough acquaintance j with the sciences taught, on the part of the young | ladies, as aie ever seen on similar occasions. In • every department —mathematical —moral —litera- j ry,we submit to the multitude who have attended — j to the patrons who were present, whether they did not witness the exhibition with pleasure and delight. It T the unqualified and voluntary testi mony of many distinguished gentlemen who are familiar with the modes and results ot teaching common throughout the country, that they have never seen at any institution more satisfactory manifestations of scholarship, than hwe been given at the two examinations ot the pupils of the Geor gia Female College The religious influence is divine in its character and pervading in its extent, i the facilities of education are as abundant, and arc brought within the reach of as many people, as may be seen by a compaiison of relative expen ses, as at any institution of high character, in ail the land. The derangement cf the currency, an 1 the pressure of the times, have restricted the re *ources of the College, and exposed it, it is true, i tosome embarrassments,but this stale of tilings we : trust, is temporary. The friends of the church :, nd the College, cannot do more in an}' way at j present to advance the interest of the latter, than i Ihy sending their daughters as pupils. The enter- : prise deserves to be sustained, and I woffd most ; earnestly recommend it to the liberality and pat- j J °nage of the Southern people. You shall hear from me more in detail soon. G. F.

W e have now arrived at that period of the sea son when the number of buyers remaining in the city is always smail, and when the stock on sale, also, is generally so greatly diminished as to pre ventany very extensive transactions —such, at all events, is the posture of affairs at present, and hence proceeds the inactivity which has character ized the market since our review of last Saturday morning, the sales daring (he-whole week having only amounted to about 900 bales. The stock re maining on sale too, besides being exceeding light, is genera ly composed of small and not very de sirable parcels, if we except two or three lots, which are, however, hedd at rates so far above < ur quotations as to lie considered entirely out of the market. In most instances, the purchases this week have been made principally for the purpose of completing cargoes. Holders continue to mani fest considerable firmness, but prices remain the same as at the date of our previous report. A few small lots of cotton of the new crop have been re ceived, of qualities from fair to good fair, and gen erally of good color and staple—one parcel has been disposed of, which will he found among the sales of the week, viz: 19 bales at 6| cents, 183 at 7|, 24 at at 9j,20 at 85, 30 at 7,46 at 10, 56 at 7, 63 at 65, 6 new crop (good fair) at 12A. 40 old at BA, 40 at 10, 21 at cents, all Louisiana and Mississippi. liverpooi classifications.

The greater put of the sales however, were at 5£ cents, and for a few hhds very choice, we understand that as high as 7 cents was obtained. In addition to the above transactions, a lotot 145 hhds changed hands at sjf cents. Only two or three lots have been re ceived this week, and these are not on the market —a part has been shipped. The whole stock is now in very few hands, and prices seem tending to a further advance. No transactions on planta tion. Molasses. —The only transaction of importance, which we have to notice, is a sale of about 45U bbls , received since our last, at IS cts. p gallon. This lot was purchased for shipment to the North. There is scarcely any now for sale on the Levee, but, generally, there is very little demand. We have heard of no sales on plantation. Flour. —Since our last publicalion, nothing has occurred to change the character of the market, as then reported. The demand generally, has been confined to the wants of consumers, though we are advised of one sale of 400bbls fresh,from flit boat, for shipment to Mexico, $6 75. Most of the trans actions have been at $6 50 (S' $6 75, though limi ted sales are effected at $7. We therefore confine our previous quotations of $6 50 (d 7 00 for super line. The receipts this week are some 2000 bar rels, and the sales amount to about the same quan tity, leaving but a small stock on hand for sale. There is little probability of an advance, however, unless supplies should entirely cease fore several days. Bacon. —Owing to the very limited stock of good Bacon, a further advance has been realized this week, in all descriptions. We now quote canvassed Hams at 11 (ft) 12 cents, uncanvassed do., of which there are a few in market, 10 A(S 11, Sides 94 fa) 10, Shoulders, of which the market is nearly bare, 7A (S S cents. Transactions are confined to very limited parcels. Lord. —Wc can learn of no sales of importance in this article, though holders are still firm at our former quotations —say (d cents,live latter being the prevailing rate for prime quality. The markets abroad will not yet warrant shipments at these prices, and transactions, therefore, ate en tirely confined to- sales for consumption. The stock has received an accession this week, of 1053 kegs. Whiskey. —Considerable supplies continue to come forward, and no improvement has taken place in the demand, hut the pi ices of last week, which were 24 (d 25 cents gallon for Rectified, are still maintained. Most of the sales, however,are made at the former figures, they being thejate from the Levee. Grain. —The receipts of Shelled Corn, in sacks, have been quite light this week, but the demand continues limited, and prices have undergone no change since our last.
