There are no pan- ! pers—-cross the State in any direction, you will not see. a poor field, a deserted clearing, a alrollm>» woman, a drunken man, or an irreli gious, inhospitable, disorderly village.

RELIGION. Man, in whatever state lie may be considered, AS well as in every period and vicissitude of life, experiences in religion an efficacious anti dote against the ills which oppress him, a shield that blunts the darts of his enemies, and an asylum into which they can never enter. In every oyent of fortune Io excite in his soul a sublimity of ideas, by pointing out to them the just judge, who, as an attentive spectator of his conflicts, is about to reward han his imeslimable approbation. Religion also, in the darkest appears to man as the iris of peace, und dissipating the dark and angry storm re stores the wish for calm, and brings him to (he port - of safely.

COOPER’S CASE. In the summary of last week, we copied Hom the Cohunbiu Times a notice that the trial of ’his gentleman had resulted in his ac* quitul. His case is repotted at considerable length in tho same paper of the 14 h inst. 11 is trial Wis before the Board of Trustees of the i S?u’h Carolina College, auJ the charges, we learn “were, in number three, and in Substance, [ that by various publications, such as his Puhti- ; cal Economy, his Letter to any Member of i Congress, and his Translation of Broussais on Insanity, he had unnecessarily advanced opin ions respecting religion, offensive to parents of students committed to his caie, and to large daises of citizens, and injurious to the inteiv ests of College, and that he had, at lectures Hid on other occasions interfered unnecessarily ' with the the religious opinions of the students, and inculcated upon them doctrines contrary to those in which he knew they bad been edu cated, and offensive to their parents and guar dians.” The testimony tn the case consisted were the Books referred to, and the evidence of Students taken by the Trustees in support of the charges, and by Dr. Cooper in his defence. • We shall not occupy the time of our readers ’ with detailing the arguments, hy which Dr. ’ Cooper has attempted to repel the charges i 1 prefered against him. They are precisely I ' | such, in substance and in spirit, as any one fa- j ’ miliar with his previous history and writings, ' ' might have expected, hi the judgment of the ’ Trustees, he has succeeded in his defence, and (< 1 they have resolved, “That no charge against i J Dr. Cooper, showing that his continuance in t | office defeats the endsand aims of the Institu- : I lion or authorizing his removal, has been sub- I stantiated by proof and that the charges a- * j gainst him be therefore dismissed.” Dr. Cooper is, therefore, restored to pub-' J lie confidence; and Christian parents arc a- ( gain invited to entrust the education of their s children to a man, who has ridiculed public j prayer—who has attempted to undermine the s authority of Divine Revelation—who has treat- > ed with contempt the Institution of the Sab- 1 , bath—who has evinced a reckless opposition to ' | the Clergy and denounced them in terras of! I unmeasured severity—who has denied the im- ' . materiality and seperate existence of the soul-- ‘ who has attempted to dissuade the people from j , doing any thing to support the Institutions of ■ t the Gospel—who Iris assailed with act imonv '« the Doctrine of the I riuity, and other doctrines * 'which are held sacred by a vast majority of I f ' professing Christians in the State—and who is I believed, on sufficient grounds, to be as bitter < * an opposer so the Christian Religion, as was ; 1 Voltaite, or ILi roe, or I’.line. Such in bi ief is [ the man-—the “hired, paid salaried” man, who ! t presides over the College of the State, and ! t who has received for the last ten years $35, :<1 000 of the people’s money. And in token of 1 » his gratitude for their favors, he lias infused his s own anti-i iligious views into the minds of their children, and caused the Press to teem with productions, desigiK’d to destroy all regard for tho Bible—-to break down *he restraint which it imposes, and to blot out tt»P encouragement which it offers for llio practice 01 religion and virtue.—- Charleston Observer. g t DOCTOR COOPER. <1 It is rumoured ; upon what authority we do not a pretend to say ; that Dr. Cooper was acquitted of 3 the charges preferred agaipst him in his late trial h before the Board of Trustees of the South-Caroli- t na College,by ihe cashing vole of the chairman; n i and that had all the members of the board been j. present the result would have been entirely differ- i ent.

I Dear Friend— l take this opportunity of t informing you of our situation. Capt. Ford’s ■ Company of United Simes’ Rangers left this : place on tha sih instant, by order of Col. n Arbuckle, on an expediiioa ag iinst the Paw- a nees, but to their surprise, they were al- s t icked on the 9th, bv a bind of Camanshu ’ Indians, five bundled in number.

I was at the Fort when tho express ■( came in. One of the Lieutenants made his .

There is every pro- , I liability of a bloody War with the Camansha i Indians. JAMES SMI I’ll, A Ranger under Captain Boon. j From the Susquehannah Register. ' LEWIS CASS. , SEcnr.TAnY of the war department. . i Among the few distinguished individuals of the j nation who have escaped the missiles of party du ring the recent political conflict, the present Sec- / rotary of War stands conspicuous. His brilliant and commanding talents —his unspotted integiity and cininetit national services, all combined, seem to have raised tor him a shield ot delenee, alike I potent against the bitterness ol party hate, and the reckless spirit of rivalry and ambition. Indeed, a very respectable portion ot the party opposed to the administration of which he is an ornament, have j been loiced to concede publicly that their opposi- | ‘ tiou extends not io him. I his high tribute to tal- I ents and public virtue, is in the present instance amply deserved ; as a hasty and bru t recurrence ! to sonic distinguishing event iu his past hie may serve to illustrate. Gov. Cass is emphatically a self-made man. He was born we believe in the state ol New-Hamp shire, but emigrated soon after completing lus ed- ( ucation, to the then mart ol youthful enterprise j and ambition, the new state of Ohio. Here, lor several years, ht pursued with eminent success and marked ability, the profession of the law ; and gave I eaily presage of those powers ol mind w h ich even tually raised him to his present elevated position > in the public view, hud as a profound jurist and ac complished statesman, the same genius ami tndim trv evinced tn the humbler but intricate controver sies of individuals, readily enabled him to extend his intellectual grasp io those great t ipics ol gen eral interest, involving the principles, the policy -1 and the rights of nation?. ! After tilling several important stations to which | ; he was called by the people of Ohio and by the gen- j i eral government, at the declaration of war in 1812, j he enrolled himself under the banner of his conn- j try, and received a Colonel’s commission in the North Western army, under General Hull. I n , yiew of their comparative lesults in the sum of hu- I : man happiness, the civic glory to the statesman is , much to be preferred to the crimson fame of the , warrior; but those brave spirits who like Gov. 1 Cass, at the period to Which we have referred, vol untarily relinquished home and its endearments, i the pursuit of wealth and its concomitant blessings, to suffer and perchance to bleed in defence of their i insulted country, deserve —richly deserve the hon- , or and everlasting gratitude of that country, and < all its well-wisher. From the period of his entering the army to the present, the career of Gov. Cass has been one of uncommon usefulness and celebrity. He it was 1 though a subordinate officer, who struck the first) blow* against the aggressors of his country, and | with the troops under his command achieved the I , first of that glorious series of triumphs, so nobly I 'crowned by General Jackson at New-Orleans, j' which shed a luster upon the American character, i and elevated our country in the eyes of the world. I Had bis counsels been adhered to, his spirit pre- I dominated, the American people never would have < t occasion to blush at the disgraceful surrender at < Detroit. The brave and honorable parts winch he ; i afterwards bore in (he struggles upon the frontier, < and especially in the defeat of General Proctor and | Tecumseh at the river Thames, are matters of his- j < tory. and need not be repeated here. < His subsequent appointment as Governor of Mich- ) t igan. though far below his intrinsic deserts was 1 i most fortunate for that territory. Under his judi-j t cious and efficient administration it has risen to a 1 state of exampled prosperity, and is soon to lake its place as a sovereign member of the Union. In the I selection of Gov. Cass to fill the important place v in his cabinet as Secretary of the War Department, f President Jackson has afforded another proof of a that disernment and discretion which his enemies have uniformly affected to deny him. < Right and punctual in his business habits, plain l and affable m his manners, with powers of mind t which grasp as it were by intuition every subject to < which they are applied, united to various and ex j tensive acquirements, which stamp him as the ripe t scholar, Lewis Cass, we disparage no one in saying ! [ it, has no superior in the present able cabinet, and I tew, it any, in the nation ; and as he is yet in the t prime of his life and usefulness, we feel that we 1 hazzard nothing in the declaration, that the meas ure of Ins fame is not yet full, < * On 19lh July, 1812, Colonel Cass, with a de tachment of 250 men, attacked with great bravery, the advanced posts of the British army, near Mal den, and succeeded in driving them back upon the main body. This we believe was the first blow struck against the enemy in the late war. ■ THE DEAF AND DUMB. Extracts from the examination of the Deaf and ■ Du -.b, in the Hartford Asylum, before the Le gislature of Massachusetts. Number and appearance, of Pupils. The Pupils were eight in number. Four were girls of a very interesting appearance. One of them, apparently fifteen, dressed in blue, was deci der.’. I '' P re,, yr w *’h afresh and blooming countenance as indtc? l ‘ ve of thought, as the faces of the best ' sducated yoC’’n hidy in our high schools. She has lost her hearing six years of age, still retaining the faculty of ariiculal'ou, hut unable to use it as a ' medium of communication. * here was a pleasing propriety in her manner, and an e<? sc and unassum- , ing self-possession when she was standing in the I presence of the whole assemblage, that is u ot often [ attained in the drawiug-r<K>..». 't’he moven.'ents of j all the Pupils were unembarrassed, and those the i females even graceful, resulting, doubtless, in par? i from being shutout from hearing, but particularly I from the constant action given to the hands and arms, in the use of the manual alphabet. They i are never at a loss what to do with their arms, those I troublesome appendages to all children, when con- > scions they are objects of public notice. In fact it would be almost worth while for those who can hear and speak, to take lessons in this art, to learn tro’.v i to use the limbs with freedom and grace. Their manner of expression. j Tn the examination, two of the Pupils were placed ; near a black board, on which they wrote with cfialk, . and the others were furnished with slates. The in- ■ structor, who seemed excellently adapted to his 1 task, cormnunica’' d with them by spelling words, through the man. 1 alphabet, in the use of which they are very expert , and by the use of conventional signs, communicating words and ideas to the mind, j For instance, he gave out a word, such as learn, re- | quiring them to form a sentence containing it- One wrote, “ There is an asylum, and the Pupils , learn well." Another word, wonder, was thus in- ■ trodueed into a sentence by one ot the pupils : " L wonder that so many persons are curious to see me on the present occasion.” Other words, such as j swiftly, about, knowledge, &c. were thus w ritten by I the pupils : “ A rein-deer runs very swiltly, and j can jump across a river." “ There is about six , hundred Legislatures in Massachusetts." jl h ,s was written by a small boy. The teacher pointed with his finger to the two errors in this sentence, ] and the lad’iostantly substituted are for is, and Le- j gislators for Legislatures. " Knowledge in the i United States is power.” “I love to acquire | knowledge and religion and many other things. The teacher then asked a question by signs, which the pupils wrote down to answer, viz . > ‘•Why do you stand hear before this great assem- , bly?” Answers —“ Because we make exhibitions , before them.” “To exhibit to them ” ” Because ; we wish to exhibit to those who wish to believe t.tat we. can write and read." “ Because we exhibit »>> the Legislature of Massachusetts.” " Because we - wish to exhibit our improvements, that the Legisla ture may send other ignorant children to lhe Asy- ' luni.” A voting man, who is an assistant-teacher wrote; “ That we may show the Legislature, and , through them the people ot the state, that their ap propriations have not been misapplied. Their conversation with one. another. j Mr. Weld sai l i.c had often been asked if the | educated deaf and dumb conld enjoy each other s 1 conversation and society. To show this, two ol the lads took the stand, and were directed to converse with each other on atty subject they thought pioper. They immediately commenced an animated inter change of signs, which the teachcr-mterpreted some ; tilin'' in this manner —"Have vou been to New- Hampshire ? Yes. Did you see the White moun tains ? They were pointed out to me, but 1 saw them at a great distance. Mas their appearance 'white? They were white at the top, but all the other parts black. Did you travel in a sleigh, or • upon wheels ?

Three of the pupils were called upon to relate n story, or an incident in Bible history. One of them gave an account of Paul and Silas in prison, their singing at midnight, the bursting open the prison doors by an earthquake, the terror of the jailer, liis attempt to kill himself, his releasing Paul and Si las, applying someth ng to heal their stripes, per haps oil, but does not know, and the baptising of the jailer and his house. To signify this last act, the pupil made ssigu for plunging in water. His manner and gestures throughout were particularly expressive. M X.,., »;• >;• »;; y, m, .... CHEROKEIT Saturday, March 23, 1833. PRESIDENT’S INAUGURAL ADDRESS. The Inaugural Address of President Jackson, like eveiy thing else coming from that patriot, is looked to with the deepest interest. It is expect ed in that address, whoever lhe incumbent of lhe office may be, the views entertained of the govern ment and ihe maiiner of its administration, will be chalked out. At this very interest period of our political history, we look, anxiously, into this ad dte’s’s, ahd, behold, the “blood-sucker, Ihe destroyer of siate-rrghts, the uiilitary-dictatdr, the bloody ty rant, the federalist, lhe king" appears in every line ; if the President pursues the course marked out in that address, farewdll ——, but, stop, we will not | lament departed Liberty until it is gone. Andrew Jackson hhs been inducted into office as President for the ensuing four years, we hope he will, al least, recognise his steady and consistent ) friends, who have continued faithful to him in weal and in woe. What will the old elevenlh-hour-men of Georgia ' do now ! there was not much confidence placed in their fidelity, notwithstanding their vociferation , j they came in late, but could not bear the service o f one short hour, during the last quarter, as the jockies term it, they bolted; yes, not only bolted, but turned all their energies against him—but he has parried the njissi es leveled against him, and we trust, will continue, without deviation, to adminis ter lhe government for the next four years as it has been administered for the past four. But, what will the eleventh-hour-men do ? shout “ Glory to Henry Clay !"—Be it so. From the (Ga.) Times. ESTIMATION OF JOHN FORSYTH, AT HOME. “The betrayal ol the feelings of constituents, and tho abuse oi their confidence, was never moro plainly evinced than it has been by the Republican citizens of Hilisborough, and its vi cinity, in Jasper county, in their recent mani festation of abhorence at the conduct of Mr. ■ Forsyth, in his support of tho Bloody Bill— his opposition of the peace-making and reduc tion bill, and his unnatural alliance with Web ster, Van B uren <fc C ■o. His apostacy to the I views of his constituents, has very deservedly incurred their most indignant displeasure and reprobation ; and whilst we are no advocates or justifiers of the manner in which they mani - fested their proud spirits and sore feelings at tho strange course which Mr. Forsyth has so ! madly pursued, yet we admire and applaud the j motive which actuated them. Let an insulted 1 people frown with indignation upon an insulting I public servant, and they thereby leach him his i dependance on theii suffrages. But we have not yet told our readers of the facts. They may be comprehended in this short sei'tence. On the arrival of the mail at Hillsboro’, on the Sth inst. it was aucei taiued that Mr. Forsyth had suppoi ted the Collection alias bloody bill —and opposed tho reconciliatory and peace making cffoit made by the patriots of the coun try. This mortifying intelligence, induced the citizens to show their indignation ; whereupon, a gallows was erected with an effigy of Forsyth attached, and he was znwcAr-exectitetl. The ef figy was suspended for an hour, with the bloody bill in one hand and Jackson’s Proclamation in his mouth, and many other significant terms; after which, it was consumed by fire, &.C, We received a comniuuiciitiun fr< ni a respec table source, i iiibudy nig tire übOve Si.iieniCnt, and to publish the particulars, at the reijuest of many of ihe citizens who witnessed the exhibi- n , lion. ) We do not pretend !o deny the right of the con ’ stituent, to offer what indignity may be proper, to ' a public servant, when that servant may prove re creant to the interests committed to his care ; in deed, we approve it. Amongst all the indignities ’ and disgrace with which the American people are 1 accustomed to brand their faithless officers, the : burning in effigy is esteemed the gieatest ; but ! this mode of punishment looses it effect, entirely, as j does all others, by its frequency and by a resort to ’ it on improper occasions and by improper persons, I or if the person intended to be punished does not ! deserve it, in all or either of which cases, lhe result ) is directly the reverse of what was intended. For j i this mode of punishment to succeed, lhe person on ; whom it is to operate, must have acted in direct j opposition to the known and expressed will and ) interests of his constituents, on some cardinal ' point of duty. For a few inexperienced boys of a College, or a few rash and unthinking individuals 1 ol some remote hamlet, upon every trifling and un- ' ! suitable occasion, to oiler such indignity to the President of ib« United States or to expect to I I blacken the character of Mr. Forsyth, is, entirely, I chimerical ; the consequence o. such a course oi | conduct is, to cover with shame, those concerned, ‘i We should not have noticed the foregoing piece or made the subsequent remarks, had it not been for the imposing words placed at its head ; the piece, certainly, brought us the first and only in formation we have on the subject ; we have not heard the slightest whisper, ot the transaction of which it speaks, other than it affords , ami, we are clearly of opinion, that the pt isons engaged, intended its effect shot.ld not pass the precincts of their imine liate neighborhood, which it has not done, we presume. We need not. on this occa sion, attempt to wipe from the character of Mr. Forsyth, anv disgrace that malice may have de signed but has not succeeded in affixing upon it. ° GOVERNOR HAMILTON’S SUGAR. i We rimlcrstaml. savs the Southern Patriot, that Governor Hamilton lias declined to give bonds to the Collector for Ins sugar imported in the Catha rine, but requires tb it they should be stored lur the , presets A fire broke out in Columbia, South-'Cartilin.% on the night of the 20th ult. and before it could be got under destroyed the buildings occupied by Mes srs.

Fayetteville, February 2&. The Cape Fear has been higher during the past l week, we understand, than at any time since 1817. Other water courses North and South of this also have experienced the effects of the heavy rams, as the Northern mail’s, we believe, were delayed some hours, and the Southern entirely slopped for two or three days, by the impossibility of crossing some streams. Among the other effects of lhe flood, we under stand that the Mill at the mouth of Rockfish has been nearly under waler—the roof Was taken off from the Mill at the mouth of Cross Creek, in this I vicinity, and the water upon the lower floor of the cotton factory and the Cool Spring Mills.
