This they have at length obtained. In an ther to a request of Gov. Hamilton, he has come out ill, a lengthy exposition (occupying nearly a whole .Lumber and an extra sheet of the Pendleton Messen ger) in which he not only advocates the doctrine of ■Nullification, but evidently recommends an immediate appeal to it as the only arbitrament between South Icarolina and the General Government. What will be Itberesult? is now the question which should engage Ithe anxi ius solicitude of every friend of his country.— God grant that the fears (and hones ones too) which 3 have felt on this subject,may prove groundless, and Ithat our beloved country may be saved from internal commotion, anarchy and bloodshed. Perhaps, howev- |«r it may be as well that an experiment of the kind I should be tested at the present time as at any other; for I we have long entertained tlie most sad and gloomy fore- | boding* with regard to the stability of our Government have often doubted either the mural or political jabihtic 9 of the people of these United States, under ■ present circumstances, long to remain under the bonds |of * Union which would, if rightly appreciated, make I them the greatest and the happiest nation under the But let the experiment result as it may, one sa- liisfaction at least will be left us, and it will go with us ] through storm and through sunshine.

His manner of im parting instruction is efficient and easy; and the per- severing attention that he has paid to the scholars indi vidually, while it merits my warmest thanks, must claim for him the confidence of ail who are acquainted with the attention he bestows.

Athens, Sept. 28—28—It. To the Public. F ROM my late connection with the Bank of Macon as President, I understand that a portion or the FOR THE SOUTHERN DANNER. Messrs. Editors,—I was clad to notice in your pupur same time since, Proposals issued [>y Mr. James VV. Price, for tho pohlicntion of it religious Paper in Wonrno, Georgia, to he entitled the Southern Baptist Register. Such an undertaking is like all others of a similar nature, dependant upon the people at largo for support; and it is therefore at their disposal to say. whether this undertaking shall be ac complished, or suffered to sink for tho want of encouragement. As this is the cusc, I am incited from a deep sense of its importance, to recommend to those, who feel themselves able, this enterprise as an object worthy their patronage. It is unnecessary for me to enu merate the many disadvantages we labour un der from not having a speody means of com municating general religious knowledge. It is well known that in this section of our coun try, many of our citizens nro ignorant (for the want of means) of tho religious condition of this Stale. There is now no public medium of this kind existing bel ween the upper and lower pnris of ourcounlry; tho knowledge de rived from either must be through n privalo source, and thnrefore limited. This paper, while it presents to its readers in a particular manner tho actual condition ol religion ai home, will not leuve unnoticed its progress abroad, and tho efforts made to enlighten n heathen world. By lending aid to an enter prise so laudable,wo shall not only he indirect ly the means of disseminating useful knowl edge, hut also of giving a-sislanee to one who deserves our cnoourugement, by the praise wort V spirit which urges him to the accomplishment of this desirable end. A SUBSCRIBER. A CARD. M R. CARPENTIF.R informs iho Gentlemen of Athens, that two Classes in Book Keeping and iV-tmiaiishij), are in operation, between 8 and 10 A. M. and 7 and 9 P.

A T a period when improvements have been made in almost every other branch of education, we have had still to regret the very alow progress made in the art of Penmanship, and the little use that the pupil could make in aft#*r life, of all that in this branch he had acquired at school. In Europe this has been in a great measure obviated by the introduction of the sys tem of Carstair’s; and in this country a neatly similar system has been lately introduced with the greatest success, by Mr. Carpentier, a gentleman who has been for the last three months in this city, instructing in Pen manship and Practical Book Keeping. In the former he has been for some time attending to a class in my community are disposed to indulge in reflections unfa vorable to my character as an upright man, and to at tach to me some b'ame for the unfortunate, and to me unexpected failure of that Institution—The churges against me so far as I have heaid them, are 1st. That I have spoken favourably of the solvency of the Bank, and have thereby given a currency to its paper which it might not otherwise have obtained. 2d. That I resigned my appointment of President secretly, thereby continuing to the Bank the influence of my name after I had withdrawn from it. I will take up these charges in their order, and meet them in a manner which will satisfy every candid, and unprejudiced mind of the purity of my motives, and honesty of rny conduct. In the first place, before 1 consented to become an officer of the institution, when applied to for that purpose, I was assured that several of the most responsible merchants of Macon, had con tracted for the purchase of one thousand shares of the stock of the Bank, and that the balance was owned by Dr. Robert Collins, Robert Coleman, John Martin, and J. Stone & Co. of Savannah—Kerr Boyce, Henry W. Conner & Co. and Patterson and Magwood of Charles ton. Having a personal knowledge of the pecuniary circumstances of most of the Gentlemen represented as the proprietors of the stock, and having been in formed by two of the Gentlemen who had agreed to become purchasers of the stock in Macon, that from some examination into the affairs of the Bank, they found it so far as that examination went, in a sound condition, I did not hesitate to accept the appointment of President. A short time after 1 entered upon the du ties of the office, the Cashier made an exhibit (o me of the state of the Bank, which proved it to be solvent and amply able to meet all paper in circulation. In addi tion to this the favorable report of the Legislature upon the state of the institution, always made out as I sup posed upon oath by the officers—completely satisfied me that the Bank of Macon stood upon a solid baris— In the month of February, Dr. Collins informed me he had sold his interest in the slock to Mr. Ellis and his friends in New York. I at once supposed that Mr. Ellis’s friends in New York would prefer his presiding over the Bank, and spoke of resigning—but as I very soon learned that Mr. Ellis did not wish me to resign, {continued to servo as 1 had previously done, without having any change produced in my mind as to the sol- vency of tho Bank. During the whole of the time I served the institution as President, every demand made upon it was promptly met, and the Bank continued to meet so far as I know, every demand after my resigna tion, up to the time I left this place for New York.— From these circumstances I had no right to speak otherwise than well of the condition of the bank. Af ter my resignation, and after setting out for New York, I tola my partners that I thought every confidence might be placed in the credit of the Bank, and that it was safe to hold its bills—I gave the same information to ono of my brothers in business in this place, and to another in Eatonton—these persons might he presum ed to be the Inst that I would deceive, if 1 could be supposed to be governed by two of the strongest pas- sionsof the human heart, self-interest and the ties of na tural affection. As additional evidence of my implicit faith in tue soundnesss of the institution, I will re mark, that since the 1st day of December 1831, and the 24th July 183*2, (eight months,) my Bank Book shows that I deposited in the Bunk of Macon for the concern of which I am a member, in cash and good paper for collection, the sum of three hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and that it was not unfrequentiy the case that from ten to twenty thousand dollars, were to tho credit of our House in the Bank, from six days to two and three weeks at a time. These deposited were not only continued after my resignation, but I reques ted Mr.*Laird H. Wiley, in whose charge our business was left before I started to New York, to continue to make all our depositee there—Mr. Wiley’s certificate will prove this. These facts will I hope satisfy an im partial public that if! spoke favourably of the solvency of the Bank, I spoke nothing but my honest opinion, and if I have misled others, 1 was myself deceived. This brings me to the second charge, that 1 secretly resigned my appointment as President. On the last day of June it becamo indispensihly necessary for ino* to go to the country on business; on that dm I made out my resignation—on the 1st day of July previous to leaving Town for tho country, where I was detained about eight days, 1 handed the letter with my resig nation to Mr. Leroy M. Wiley,—told him what it con tained, and requested him to hand it to the Bank, which he done on the 2d day of July witl as much pub licity as such things are usually done—I made no se cret of it; it is true, I did not pu.iliah it, but when spo ken to in relation to it, I always stated I had resigned; there was no concealment about it. In a conversation with Docl. Clopton nine or ten days previous to my starting to New York, I told him I had resigned—I met with Mr. Washburn in the street before I left, who tuid m» he had heard it, and asked me if it w as so ; I told him it was. The certificates of these Gentlemen will enable the public to judge whethersecrecy was en joined— or not. The reason for rny resigning when I did, was not induced by any distrust of the ability of the Bank to meet its issues without loss to tho holders of its bills, but in compliance with a compact with my partners, by which I wus to attend to that Branch of the business previously attended to by Leroy M. Wi ley, to wit: the purchase of goods, and the time had arrived when it was necessary for me to start to New York, in order to be prepared for the business of the approaching season. 1 left Macon when I did for this purpose alone. If I had believed the Bank was in a failing condition, and had resigned from a motive of this sort, then it would have become my duty both to myself and the country, to have made public not only my resignation, but the causes of it, but being influen ced by no such motive, and having confidence in the credit of the institution, I could not see the necessity of publishing my resignation. It was my intention on my return from New York, to have submitted to the public a complete expose from the Books of the Bank, and sought the earliest opportunity to do so, but was denied the privilege of doing so, and the reason sis-ign- rd by the proprietor was, that “after its fai.urc, the Bank was under the necessity of refusing access to its Books from prudential motives alone, os such an ex pose it was feared would throw difficulty in its way, and prevent the collection of its debts.” I am prepar ed to anticipate all the blame that will fall upon me when a complete developcment is made, and this I do admit—ills remisneas; for this I shall always feel the deepest regret; and particularly if it shall turn out when a disclosure is made, that a fraud has been prac ticed upon the public. Conscious myself of having been governed by the most upright motives, both to wards the Bank, and the public, during my connection with the institution, and desirous ofmaintainingliefore the community, the character of an honest citizen, I submit this statement, and the certificates of Gentle men accompanying it. Wliut verdict the public may award 1 cannot say, but be that os it may, I am sensi ble that I have incurred no moral, or equitable responsi bility—and I have the consolation of feeling (hat I have throughout, acted with none other than the purest of motives. So long as I live I shall be found at roy post, and ready to answer to any tribunal of my country—I am prepared to shew that the email property of which I am possessed, is nothing more than the honest fruit of unceasing toil and labour, for the last ten years of my life,—I owe just debts, and should it become neces sary for me to dispose of any part of mv property to meet them promptly, I shall do it, and ray honor is pledged never to place the balance beyond the reach of justice and equity. ROBT. W. FORT. P. S. Could I see Mr. Ponce of lugurta, I should be enabled to obtain his certificate, that in a conver sation with him about tho IOth July. I told him I had resigned my appointment of President of the Bank of Macor, and done it without concealment, or placing him under any obligations whatever to keep it secret. Justice to Messrs. J. Stone & Co. Kerr Boyce, Hen ry IV. Conner &l Co. and Patterson and Magood, R. Coleman and John Martin, requires me to' sav that I have been informed, they sold their interestin the Bank ol Macon some time before its failure. ROBT. W. FORT. Maeon, Sept. 12, 1832.

Athens, Sept. 28-28—4t. Office Hunters Look Out ! Messrs. Editors,—As it has become fashionable to put interrogatories to candidates up for office, that tho people may vote undt-rstandingly upon all matters that concern them, I have assumed to my-elf the right of inquiring of hie honor Judge Clayton, whelhci if the doctrine of Nullification, (us advocated by him) ifes* Bank of Macon, has been uniformly correct; that he I tabliohed, would not go to the correction or nullifying has in all cases acted with uprightness of intention, {the tmamxftJuftoHal laws, ns w ell of Georgia as that of and has done nothing which should cast suspicion on the General Government? If so, what we would do his character for integrity, during the time of my con nexioti with the Bank of Macon THOMAS M. ELLIS. After its failure, the Bank was under the necessity of refusing access to its Rooks, from Prudential mo tives alone, as such an expose, it was feared, would throw difficulties in its way and prevent the collection of its debts. Macon, Sept. 11(4, 1832. I resigned the office of Cashier of the Bank of Ma con about the 15tli of February last, and R. W. Fort Esq. had acted as President of that institution for se veral months previous to that time. Front my situa tion I had a good opportunity of judging of his official acts, and I have no hesitancy in saying, that in all his transactions with the Bank, he seemed to be actuated by the purest and most honorable motives; and 1 know of nothing that ought to render hint obnoxious to public censure. 1 believe hint to he a correct and upright officer, and during that time, the affairs of the Bank were in a safe, solvent, and good condition. ROBT. COLLINS. I do further state, that R. W. Fort never did to the best of my knowledge, have a note, draft, or any other paper discounted at the Bank. ROBT. COLLINS. Macon, Sept. 14,1332. hereby certify, that in a conversation held with Robt W. Fort, about the middle of July, after his re turn from tho up-country, he spoke of his resignation as President of the Bank of Macon, without any appar ent design of concealment, and then gave it as his opinion that the Bank would go on well with its busi ness, and that there was no injunction of secrecy. A. CLOPTON. Macon, Sept. 14,1832. I certify that I became a member of the firm of Bax ter, F<»rt, and IViJey, on the first day of July last, and that Robert W. Fort did. after resigning his appoint ment as President of the Bank of Macon, and before he left Macon for New York, request me to continue to inako all our deposites.bollt cash and paper for collec tion, in the Bank of Mucon—and that our House con tinued to take the Notes of the Bank of Macon until its failure. L. H. WILEY. Macon, Sept. 14, 1832. I hereby certify, that on or about the 12th of July last, and directly after his return from the up-country, where he had been on business, Robert W. Fort, spoke of his resignation oh President of the Bank of 1 aeon, without any apparent design of concealment; I then asked his opinion of tho Bunk, lie told me it was his opinion the Bank was good, and it was perfectly safo to hold the Bills. There was no seciecy enjoined on me not to mention the resignation. WILLIAM FORT. I do hereby certify, that when Mr. Robert W. Fort, mssed through Milledgeville, on his way to New York, ‘ enquired of him, whether we should continuoour de- liosites with the Mucon Bank ? His reply was “ Yes, lor I conceive it to be entirely safe.** I also certify, that an advertisement put in tho Ma con Telegraph, that “Baxter, Fort fit Wiley, would receive Macon Bills for goods, nt 25 cents in the dol lar,” was without his knowledge or consent; he was then absent from the Stale, and I hud not received a letter from him, up to that time. THOS. W. BAXTER. Macon, Sept 14th, 1832. I do certify, that I was appointed Book-keeper for the Bank of Macon in the month of February last, and held that nppointment until its failure. Mr. Fort had acted as President of the Bank, for about four months previous to this time; it was his habit to call at the Bunk every morning, but, from the presaure of his own business, never remained long at the Bank—he uni formly manifested a deep interest in the institution, and on ull occasions, an entire belief in its solvency—a plain and conclusive evidence to mo of his sincerity, was the large deposit kept almost constantly in the Bank, uinonnting frequently to Twenty Thousand Dollars, and remuining for weeks untouched. To tho last day of Mr. Fort’s stoy here; previous to his de parture for New York, this confidence appeared umiba- t*d; I nevar saw anything in his manner, nor was there any thing in his remarks, that betrayed in tho slightest degree, a doubt of the solvency of the Bank. His only culpability in all that I have observed, and all that will, on a full developcment of the affair of the Bank, fall upon him, consists in not more fully examin ing its condition, and keeping a register of all that was done. Of his integrity and honor, I have no doubt, his wlioleconduct there was so eminently distinguished for rectitude and < xuct honesty, that I think his name should forever be above reproach so fur as relates to the Bank.

For near, And sometimes more than three mouths after the expiratiou ofthc Session, the Laws of the State, with a few excep tions, are as a “ sealed Book” to tho great mass of the people ; and frequently, such aro the injurious effects produced by this delay, that men have been known, who, in obedience to a preceding, have actually viola ted a subsequent law which hud hecn reversed or modi fied—not knowing that a new had been substituted for an old law. In addition to the entire proceedings of the Legislature, the Journal and History, will contain the general in* telligencA of the day, and its interest will be increased by faithful reports of the transactions of the important Redress Convention of Georgia, which contemplates sitting in Milledgeville, the ensuing session. The De bates in the Convention, as well as those in the Lcgis* lature, will bo regularly and correctly reported; for which purpose arrangements are making with acapa* ble ana experienced Stenographer. The Journal and History op tup. Tihei, will bo published daily, and the Legislative and Conventional Proceedings of each day laid in extenso before the pub* lie on the subsequent morning, and immediately trans mitted to any part of the State to which the paper may be ordered. The large and interesting mass of information which this Publication will contain, und the great expense which must he incurred to carry it into operation, will require a liberal patronage, and such a patronage the editor flatters himself will bo extended to him. It is unnecessary to enlarge on the convenience and important utility of such a publication to members of the Legislature, in enabling thorn to ascertain immedi ately the precise state of any measure in winch they are interested,and to keep their constituents advised of the progress of public business, without the abstraction of time and attention from their special duties, expen ded in letter writing.
