Sewnrd a Georgia School-Master—The Original Adver tisement.” ^Undor tho above head tho Albany Patriot republishes from tho “Georgia Journal” of March 1819, published at Milledge- ville by John B.- Hines, the original ad vertisement of .Senator Seward as a school-master. He is spoken of by the trustees as “lato of Union Collogo New York from which institution ho comos highly recomtuondod ns a young gentle man of good moral character and distin guished for his industry and literary acquire ments.” The Patriot says: There is ono foature in the .Senator’s character when a vouth, that ho has well preserved iu his advanced life.— Whon ho came to Georgia, ho came un- dor a practical assertion of his “higher law” doctrine, llocame as a fugttivo from justice, lie lmd rebollod against parental authority, and had fled from his futhors roof, that ho ahould bo under no other restraint titan that of somo high, or rather very low law of his own making. Auothor similar feature is, that his father demanded his fugitive from the Georgia planter under whoso roof ho had sought protection,; and he refused lo deliver him up. Mr. Seward, thus iu early life had a taste of tlio practical working of tho fugitivo slave law, and did'nt like it. He may havo thought in opposing the execution of that law, ho was following tho proeedent set in his own ease by tlio noble-hearted Georgian. We do not tiiink that he lias ever publicly alluded to tho fact that ho was once a citizen of u Southern State. Ho Rcems desirous to altogether ig- noro that portion of his history. Wheth er for weal or woe, wo desire to give it all possible publicity. His is not the only instance by hundreds, of persons who havo partaken of Southern hospi tality, and have then gone back North, and passod tho ballance of their lives iu slundoring Southerners.

Loveliness.—What constitutes truo loveliness/ Not tho polished brow, tho gaudy dress, nor the snow ‘and parade of fasldonnblo • life. A woman may have all the outward murks of beauty, ami yet not possess a lovoly tempera- ment. It is the benovolont disposition, th* kind acts and Christian deportment. It is in the heart, tvharo mookness, ami truth, affection, and humility are found where we look for loveliness, nor do we look in vain. Tho woman that soothe t ho wrinkled brow, alleviate tho anguish of tho mind, nnd pour the halm of consolation in the wounded breast possesses in an eminent degree, loveliness of character. She is tho renl companion of man, and does tho work of an ungel. It is sucli a character that blesses with warmth and sunshine, und makuth earth to resemble the Paradise of God.—Amer.

The Negro Outrages in Canada West. —By the Detroit Free I\ess of yesterday morning, wo learn that at Chatham, for ty miles from Detroit, a gang of ne groes took possession of the sohol-houso on last monday and rofused to allow the toachers to enter. The authorities were called upon but dared not act. The negroes were head ed by ono “Shodd” a negro of despor- ate charactdr. Tho negroes demanded not only that the schools should bo thrown opon to them, but that they should be allowed to participate in their management, which, on account of their numbers,!* equivalent to giving them tho control. A conference took place between the negroes and the authorities, when* tlio negroes were finally quieted by. the ai- Hurunce that their claims should bo ta- kon into consideration, nnd such ar rangements made as could with propri ety be brought about. A similar dis turbance occurrod at Sandwich, three miles below Detroit, on the same day.

This ho could not do, as tho cars were about starting, so tho pickpocket was placed on board and taken to Hamburg, whore we learn ho was committed to trial. Anothor pickpocket, supposed to be an accomplice ot the former, was ar rested on Saturday at Branclivillo.
