Newspaper Page Textthe channel through which correct information ia made known to the community, touching the feelinga and view* of the Prcaident on important matter!, in the fol lowing article contradicts thia groundleaa aaaerlion: “IVe perceive that the oppoaition printa are givine asintelhgence, intimation! spread abroad by the Tel egraph, to make the impression that the President is ta king measures to blockade the port of Charleston, by revenue cutters, and is marching troops to inako war upon tho Nidlthers. 1 here is not the slightest pretext fur tho supposition, that any one considers such pre cautions necessary, to secure tho collection of the rev enue. No resistance, by force, to the due adminiatra- tion of tho laws, is apprehended. But a little while ago, tho nullifying paper gave it out, as a fearful sign, that the President was about to remove the United States troops from South-Carolins, and leave the Stato in danger nf an insurrection from its slaves. Indeed, it wae falsely stated, and made a grave charge against him, that he had said he would withdraw the troops, for the purpose alluded to. Now he is accused of sending a handful *f Regulars to con quer the Commonwealth!!” The supposition, however, in the above article, that no opposition by force to the due administration of the laws would be resorted to by South Carolina, proves, by the position which that state has lately assumed, entirely groundless. That Carolina is determined to resist in ferry tony the collection of duties by tho Gener al Government within her limits, no one can doubt, af ter reading the ordinance adopted by the Convention at Columbia, and Gov. Hamilton’s late communication to the Legislature. It was no doubt the anticipation of this state of aiTsirs (which if not “apprehended” by the President, he thought might possibly arise) that in duced him, as a precautionary measure, to order the -companies of artillery, &c. to the forts in Charleston harbour—not for the purpose, as alleged by his ene mies, of levying war upon Carolina or her citizens—not to interpose force, and at the point of the bayonet, drive the Legislature of that State from the ground it -has assumed, but simply to effect that which he doubt less felt himself compelled to do in accordanco with his present themselves through the society, to tltc j Senate, and sol down for trial on Thursday the school. But not wishing lo confine tho ad- 13th inst. vantages of llic institution to anv class, the On the 5ih inst. the House of Represents- school will bo open to all olhors of good mor- lives reconsidered the proposition which they al character, of sufficient age and strength lo had rejected the day before, relative lo the perform valuuble labor upon the farm ; and it is the intention of tho Directors to reduce the expenses of all ns low as possible. They have Land Lottery, und passed a Resolution requir ing the Commissioners to proceed forthwith with tlie drawing; which was immediately therefore determined, that for the first year, sent to the Senate, where it was concurred in, all who board in the institution, except Bene-1 with a slight amendment, which llte House ficiaries, shall pay for board, fire and washing, | will probably agree lo to-day—und if so, llte only 36 dollars, besides their labor. Those > Lottery will again bo in progress, in a lew from llte neighborhood, should there be any who wish to board at home, will have ono half of their tuition deducted for their labor. Tho tuition will be 25 dollars, paid half in advance. Each student will ho expected to furnish I,is own hed and bedding, candles and the few ar ticles of room furniture which may be needed for his lodging room. It is the intention of tho Directors that tho whole discipline of the school shall be pater nal, and that students who will not cheerfully submit to the rules and regulations, shall not remain. They intend that economy shall per vade tho whole system, and therefore recom mend to those who send their sons to the insti tution, that their clothing be plain and econo mical. Each student should be provided with a coarse dress which he may put on and off with ease during tho hours of labor No student will be received for less than one year As this institution is intended to advance the interests of piety and education, the Di rectors hope the friends of these will afford it that aid without which it cannot suceced. All articles, or stock, useful upon a farm, or furni ture in the house, will bo gratefully received. ays.—Ibid. oath of office—viz: to sec that, under every probable I as well as any donations for enabling the Di emergency, tho revenun laws of the United States, were! roctors lo accomplish the work they have be- enforced. We think it probable that Gen. Jackson, anticipating the coune that South Carolina lias pursu ed, felt it his duty to go thua far—in order that the ground might bo occupied, and the General Govern ment enabled hereafter, (in the event such a course should be determined on) to collect duties of vessels bound for Charleston,under tho walls of old Fort Moul trie ; or to compel such as should refuse the requisl tion of the revenue officers, to enter some other port where the duties could be seemed to the Government. In this precautionary movement we see nothing to warrant ths fears of his friends—the malignant insinua tions of hia enemies—or inconsistent with his duties as Chief Magistrate of the United Stales. That ho will project, of his own accord, any measure of s bclligerant or hoattle nature towards the authorities or people of South Carolina, wc have no fears. He will, it is to be hoped, lay the whole matter before the present Con gress; and wait patiently the decision of that body— which God greet rosy prove to be founded in Wisdom, Justice and Moderation. —r&fe— [C7* Wc call the attention of the public to the fol lowing article which contains the proceedings of the board of directors nf the Georgia Education Society, lately convened at this place ; and our brother editors, throughout tho Slate, to tho request contained in the last clause of their notice: MANUAL LABOR SCHOOL. The Directore of the Presbyterian Education Society, having made arrangements for the commencement of iheir Manual Labor School, would now give notice lo their friends, that its exercises will commence on the second .Mon day in January next. The school is about one mile from Athens, and will he andcr llte instruction of JMr. B. H Hopkins, for a num ber of years past, an officer of Franklin Col lage. Tito qualifications of Mr. H. as a teacher, are too well known lo need any re commendation by such a publication ns this ; and his age, and experience, and piety, we trust will give tho friends of llte institution every assurance that their sorts and wnrda will bo profitably employed while under his instruc tion. Mr. Hopkins will resido in tho house with tho pupils, who will bo at all limes under his guardianship, and subject to his control. The boarding-house will be tinder Ihe sttperiti- tendoucoof a lady whnso qualifications for this department are very superior, and whose dig nified manners and ardent pictv, must ensure the respect of the student, as well as secure for them that maternal kindness,which they so much need. The public are nlrcady aware that Ihe ob ject of tliia institution is to afford a good edu cation, and at the same time preserve the health of our students ; snd that lo accomplish this object, it ia believed labor must be united with study. The Students of this institution will thereforo be required to labor on the farm at least three hours each day, except Saturdny and the Sabbath. The labor is intended to defray a portion of the expenses of boar ding, and ultimately, it is hoped, the whole of this, at least. Provision will ho made for such young men as wish to defray the whole expenso of their education by their labor, or a larger portion of it than tho usual scholars of the institution ; and it is hoped that in a short time a young man will be enabled here, by industry, to rise above the frowns of that poverty which now prevents him from securing the advantages of a good education. The grand object, however, which tho friends of the school have in view,is to secure health and morals; and these arc advantages equally de- airahln to the rich and the poor. Many of our young men now leave our se minaries of learning, so enfeebled in body, that they are unfit for the active duties of life. It is confidently believed, that in un institution nf this kind, a voting man may labor 3 or 4 hours each day, and yet pursue his studies to better advantage, than if no labor had been performed. As the institution has been raised liy the friends of the Georgia Presbyterian Education Society, it is intended to extend its advantages to the Beneficiaries of that socie ty- All pious young men, therefore, who have the Gospel ministry in view in that denomina tion, and who have been thought worthy of the patronage of the Education Society, will enjoy the benefits of the institution. Any who desire to prepare for the preaching of tho G on- gun. We would also respectfully request each editor in tho stale, and the Charleston Observer, lo give this notice a few insertions, and also make any remarks concerning insti tulions of this kind which they may consider useful.

All the branches of learning usually taught in our county academics, will be taught at this school, and students, if it bn desired, will bo prepared for the higher classes in Col lege.

But Messrs. Young and Hutchins, who were of that Com- mitteo, proposed that another should be up pointed for that spoctal purpose. They said that the investigating committee had already been subjected lo an onerous duty, but without insisting on that, it was not ascertained that their investigation was at an end. Them might be other frauds, and of an unknown ox lent; the enquiry into which, was incompati ble with the management of the impeachment already resolved upon. Another committee to manage (he impeach ment, waslhrrenpnn appointed, consisting of Messrs. Glascock, Ryun, Ilardetnan, Steel man, nnd Burney.
