made agreeably to an act passed at the last
session of tbe legislature, which directed a
committee to be appointed, to visit the north

of education in operation in that section of the
union. Accordingly a committee was appoin

A resolution introduced the other day in the

up this morning for debate and action. The
resolution is to authorize the Central Bank to
borrow a sufficient sum us money to meet the
amount remaining to be distributed among the
several counties, according to the distribution
now in operation. It seems that the Central
Bank included, and calculated on, the 4th in
stalment of the surplus revenue of the United
States, in the amount of .*750,000 to be dis
tributed. This 4th instalment, not having
been received, a deficit occurred. The debate
was animated, in whicli Messrs. Haralson,
M’Allistcr, McDonald, HilL.King of Glynn,
and Black, took part. Asitßsßlute was otfer
' and bv Mr. Gibson for the c»J%nal resolution.

receive their proportion of the distribution.
Nov. 15. Resolutions passed the House

under the command of Gen. C. 11. Nelson, on
their way to Florida, and requiring the Govern
or to take such steps as will be effectual to
have refunded by the Federal Government,
any amount of the appropriation as may be
disbursed. The resolutions were taken up in
The Senate this morning; but before any de
cisive action could be had upon them, the
nienibers of the Senate had to repair to the
rcljcsentativo chamber to proceed to the elec
tion of State-house offlprs, which resulted as I
follows:
W. A. Tennlllc, Secretary of State.
J. G. Park, Comptroller General.
Thomas Ilaynes, Treasurer.
J esse Cox, of Burke, Surveyor General.
Nov. l<wThe House
did not sit mng this morning ; an adjournment
took place at about 11 o’clock.
In the Senate the resolutions from the
House, appropriating s*>o,ooo for the expenses
of the mounted mem on their way to Florida,
under Gen. Nelson was taken lip. A debate
followed, wliiclf was attended with much
warmth on the part of the opponents of the
resolutions. At about 1 o’clock the Senate
adjourned to meet again at 11 o’clock this af
ternoon, though several attempts weft made to
adjourn to the next day.
Noy. 17. The Senate, yesterday afternoon,
saWfrom 3to nearly 10 o’clock, when a vote
was taken on the adoption of the resolutions
authorizing a loan to defray the expenses of
the mounted men on their way to Florida. The
resolutions were carried by 42 against 40 votes
—7 Senators absent ,
In the House, the question was also decided
by a party vote.
The Susquehan.nah —The question settled.
The New York Commercial Advertiser says:
“It affords us great pleasure to give a more
satisfactory account of the packet ship Sus
quehannah, than any that has reached us since
the report of her capture. The steam packet
New York, which left New York on Saturday,
the 21st of October, reported that she saw the
Susquehannah the next day. This intelligence
was a great relief to those concerned, yet it
was feared it might have been some other ship.
All doubts are now removed, by the return,
this morning, of the New York. We learn
from ('apt. Spinney, that on Sunday morning,
at 10 o’clock, he passed under the stern of the
Susquehannah—read her name—saw the pas
sengers, among whom were several ladies—
and was sufficiently hear to liave thrown a
buiscuit on board. The ship was then twelve
leagues east south east from Cape Ilenloperf
It was calm, and she had all her sails set—
heading east, and no other vessel then in
sight-” •
The Susquehannqji,.was also spoken by the
schooner Planet, for Charleston, on Sunday at
12 o’clock, steering E. by S.
Weepixu yvtuoyvs in Aat a. —Our rea
ders will remember the pathetic language
of the 137th* Psalm, “By thq rivers of
Babylon, there we sat down ; yea, we
wept when we remembered /Jiou. We
hanged our harps upon the willows in the
midst thereof.” By “ the rivers of Baby
lon” wore mcant'the streams of Euphra
tes ; and a Turkey merchant named Olep
po, transplanted the weeping willow from
the Banks ts the Euphrates, brought
it with him to England, and planted it at
his Scat in Twickenham Park. This was
the origin of all the weeping willows in
our gardens and gleasurc-grounds. How
pleasing the reflection, that such an inci
dental circumstance should furnish us wit h
collateral proof of the unimpeachable ver
acity of Holy Writ. And ought uo not
to regard every weeping willow that comes
under our observation as an illustration
of the authenticity as well as the accura
cy of the song of the captive Israelites,
as handed down to us in the Holy Bible !

Barnard, “whose virtues were known in
the gates,” had a son who very little re
sembled his sire ; who one day told his
father that he was tired of England, and
earnestly wished tft sec the world. Sir
John listened to him with great attention,
| and then replied, “Indeed, Jackey, I
should not have the least objection to
your travelling, but while you are seeing
the world, I am afraid the world will see
you.”

PROPOSALS
for publishing, by subscri/dion, a ivork lobe
entitled
Tiara f*corgiensis.
rpiilS will be, both a Grammar ..ml Diction
.l ary of Botany ;—presenting, first, Vegeta
ble Physiology, and, second, a minute and ac
curate description of every plant yet discovered
in Georgia, together with its medicinal or nox
ious proper! ies—its English name—its emblem,
language, «Ve. Such a work is much needed,
at tins time, in our Southern institutions. We
have uo text book in Botany, calculated to
render the science attractive. Such as we
have, are not liing more than a few disconnected
facts in Physiology, or a dry desc iplion of a
few leaves, roots, Ho.wer.-i, Ac. ail tending to
excite disgust rather than taste. Students
should, as soon as possible, lie inducted into the
practical part of the scienct—it is that only
which can inspire them with enthusiasm in the
prosecution of their researches. We have nev
er known a profound botanist., made so, by
delving for months over pages treating of sap,
alburnum, cambium, and the like. This work
will teach pupils, first, the names of the classes
and orders in the Linuean system, the method
of analysing flowers, and, proceed next, to the
examining, collecting and arranging of them
into an herbarium. A lore for the science be
ing thus implanted, it must and will increase,
and urge them on to further and further investi
gations.
We intend that our work shall bo, at once, a
text book for schools-—a pleasing companion
for ladies in the boudoir and saloon—a useful
friend and companion for gentlemen in their
travels, their daily rambles, &c. Finally, it
w’rff be enriched with every species of informa
tion which can render such a work entertaining
and instructive.
We solicit the assistance of scientific gentle
men throughout the State, in furnishing vs with
information concerning the names, locality and
habits of plants yi their immediate vicinity.—
Such information will be gratefully and proper
ly acknowledged.
Postmasters are requested to act ns agents in
receiving and forwarding us subscriber’s names,
as early as the Ist November.
I’lie work will contain from 5 to 700 pages,
octavo, and be furnished to subscribers, in
boards, at $5 per copy. It. will be issued dur

subscribers warrant the expense.

SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER,
rrtl 11S is a monthly Magazine devoted chief
-1- ly to Lrri:n vaunt;, but occasionally find
ingvoom also for articles that fall, within the
scope of Sci Unci: ; and not professing an en
tire disdain of tasteful selections, though its
matter has been, as it will continue to be, in
the main, original.
Party Politics and controversial Theology,
as far as possible,are zealously excluded. They
are sometimes so blended with discussions in
literature or in moral science, otherwise unob
jectionable, as to gain admittance for the puke
of the more Valuable matter to which they ad
: hut whenever that happens, thuy aft- in
cidental. only ; not primary. They are dross,
tolerated only because it cannot* well he ser
ved from the sterling ore wherewitlftt is itieor
po raff'd. • ‘ *
RkvixwA, and Critic N«ticf.s, occupy
their due splice in the work : and it is the Ed*
itofs aim that they shffnld* have a threefold
tendency—to convey, in a condensed form,
such valuable truths or*interesting incidents as
are embodied in the works reviewed, —to direct
the reader’s attention to Jiooks that .deserve to
be rood.—and to warn him against wasting time
and money upon that large miyilw-r,-which mer
it, only to be burned. In this ags of publica
tions that by the : r variety and multitude dis
tract and overwhelm every un-liscriminatiiig
studenf, iMiMKTixr. ciirruis.-f, governed by
the views just mentiuned.-is one of llm most
inestimable and indispensable of auxiliaries, to
him who do-s wish to discriminate.
"Essays, and Tales, having in view utility
or amusement, or both— Historical sketch
es— and R i:m i msi i: n < es of events too miftute
lor History, yet elucidating it, aad heighten
ing its interest, —may lie regarded as forming
the staple of the work. And of indigenous
Poetry enough Is published—sometimes of no
mean strain—to manifest and to cultivate tin
growing poetical taste and talents of our coun
try.
. Tin* limes appear, for several reasons, to do
' mand such a work—and not one a!-*ne, lmt
many. The public mind is feverish find irri-
I tated still, from recent political strifes :—The
| soli, asmnsive influence of Literature is nced-
I eii, to allay that fever, ami sooibr that irrita
tion. \ ice arid lolly are rioting abroad :—They
1 should he driven by indignant rebuke, or Insli
|ed by ridicule, into their fitting haunts. Igno
rance lords it over an immense proportion of
1 our people : Every spring should be set in
i motion, to arouse the enlightened, and to in-
I crease their number ; so that the gja at. enemy
of popular government may no longer brood,
j like a portentous cloud, oyer the destinies of
j our country. And to accomplish all these ends,
j what more powerful ageiji can be employed,
I than a periodical,on the pkuref the .Messenger;
j if that plan he bufcarried out in practice ? '
Tile South peculiarly requires such an a
gent. In all the Union, south of Washington,
1 there are but two Literary periodicals ! Nurth
j ward of that city, there are probably at least
j twenty-five or thirty ! Is this contrast justified
| by the wealth, the leisure, the native talent, or
j the actual literary taste, of the Southern peo
i'jile, compared with those of shc Nothorn ?
J No : for in wealth, talents, and fqsle, we irtay
| justly claim at least an equality with our breth
| ren ; and a domestic institution exclusively
lour own,beyond all doubt affords us, if we
| choose, twice the leisure for reading and wri
! ting, which they enjoy.
It was from deep sense of this local want,
that the word Southern was engrafted on the
name of this periodical : and not with any de
sign to nourish local prejudices,or to advocate
supposed local interests. Far from any such
thought, it is the Editor’s fervent wish, to sde
the North and South hound endearingly togeth
er forever, in the silken bands of mutual kind
ness and atfection. Far from mediating hostil
ity to the North, lie has already drawn, and Ije
j hopes hereafter to draw, much of his -choicest
i matter thence T and happy indeed wilWw deem
1 himself, should ltis pages, by making each !*e
j gion know the other better, contribute in any
i essential degree to dispel the lowering clouds
| that now threaten the peace of both, and to
brighten and strengthen the sacred ties of fa-
I ternal love.
The Southern Liti r!ky MessksCej: has
I now reached the 111th No. of its third volume.
! How far it has acted out the ideas here uttered,
jis not for the Editor to say. lie believes, how
! ever, that it falls not further short of them,
| than human weakness usually makes Practice
fall short of Theory.

a Volume, and must either begin cur-
I rent one—or may commence with yol: TV, the

which must be paid in all rases al the

j now, to avoid misapprehension, mis
i understanding—as no order Will hereafter he
