The Exhibition of the Junior Class took place ‘
in the College Chapel, yesterday morning, com- 1
mencing about half past nine o’clock, and closing
about twelve. The exercises commenced with
prayer, by the President, Dr. Church, and conti
nued with the Orations, as follows ;

ment, a state of true felicity. |

A. J. COOK, D. S.—The Nineteenth Century. >
J. V. HARRIS, D. S. —Influence of party spi- c
rit and personal views on Science. (
W. H. LEE, P. K. S.—Female character and £
influence.
B. C. YANCEY, P. K. S.—The influence of j
popular opinion on men of genius. e
M. WILLIAMS, D. S.—The literary institu
tions of Georgia, claim the undivided support of ®
her citizens. s
The Orations, generally, were creditable to the li
speakers and the institution. In the afternoon, 8
the Anniversary Oration of the Alumni Society
was delivered before that Society, and the citizens
and strangers generally, in the College Chapel, by tl
Col. Wjr. C. Dawson of Greene. Itwasadis- 8
course eminently worthy of the high character and
talents of the Orator, and well deserved the fre
quent enthusiastic bursts of applause it elicited.
We cannot, however, agree with him in that part <1
of his address to the Board of Trustees, which w
ardently entreated them to abandon altogether the ,
party and sectarian influences and distinctions u
which have hitherto prevailed, by common con- a
sent, in filling vacancies in the Faculty and Board *
of Trustees. It may seem all very well in theory,
and no doubt wo should have agreed with it, and !*
, , ’ II
perhaps still agree with it, in the original formation p
of such bodies. The proper general principle oft(
selection, is undoubtedly the one advised, of found
ing it always on literary and scientific character, r j
merit, influence, and ability, alone. But, experi- tc
cnce sufficiently proves, that general principles ai
must frequently be modiiied by the circumstances
under which they are exercised—that practical tj
evidence is better than theoretical—and that the
old maxim, “let very well alone,” is a sound one. C
The zeal with which we advocated the College C
in its hour of trial, when the party with which we
mostly acted was almost unanimously opposed to
will serve to shew that we arc capable of laying
aside parly influences and prejudices on such oc- C
casions; yet, even now, we would not advise an
implicit reliance on our impartiality, and devotion tl
to literary and scientific considerations alone, in 41
a selection from Nuliifiers and Union men*. We j|
should not probably exercise any wilful prejudices ri
or partiality ; but man’s prejudices and partialities b
often govern and direct him unknown to himself. 4 *
It is well known, that before the present col-
y legiato arrangement was effected between the two .5
parties, the Trustees were confined wholly to one
parly, and had been for years, perhaps from the a '
first formation of the Board; that their selections '
to fill vacancies, were always made from that one g'
dominant party; and that the other party, after d
long and perhaps in some degree, just, suspicions, °.
that the institution was used as u party machine,
finally abandoned all interest in it, and warmly w
and generally opposed it, to the great injury, of •'
both it, and the State. When a larger portion of
it was destroyed by fire, and an appropriation cl
from the Legislature was necessary to rebuild it, ai
the accordance of that party, which was found S 1
necessary to effect it, was refused. A compro
mise was finally agreed on, to the effect, that the |j
number of Trustees should be doubled, the now u
ones selected from the antagonist party, and the ”
future vacancies filled from the party whose mem- 0
her previously occupied the place, so that the bal- o
once of party power should always bo preserved: 11
and the result of it was, a liberal appropriation for
rebuilding, and numerous other importantppurpo- e
es, and a cordial support of the institution by
both parties, which still happily continues without tl
interruption, under groat advantages to the Col- 41
lege and the State. We had great doubts of the
ultimate consequences of this compromise, when tl
it was made, but approved and advocated it as the P
only measure which could then save the instilu-
J ti
tion from destruction ; and no one can now doubt g
or deny, that it has -worked -well, and done great s
good.
Shortly after this public prejudice was again
greatly excited, by charges alleged that the in
stitution had been converted into, and was used
as, a sectarian machine, by the sect which then
predominated in the Faculty. The advantages of =
the recent compromise were just developing them
selves, and the friends of the College, fearful that
the new harmony might be interrupted, and the
reviving prospects of the institution materially 1
injured, agreed to another compromise, founded 1
on sectarian representation, as the other on party.
To this we were decidedly opposed, fearful of |
the results, and believing, as we still do, that no
clergyman should be admitted into such an insti
tution, as a Teacher or Professor: But, despite 1
of all the seemingly well-founded doubts and ar
guments of its opponents, the compromise, also,
has, so far, worked well! Harmony and effi
ciency appear to have resulted from it, both in the
■ College affairs ond the public support ; and while
this combines, and the present and prospective
prosperity of the institution is so decidedly flat
tering, valuing tried practical results above all
speculative theories, however promising we say,
"let very-well alone," lest wo have hereaher to
write over the lamented and buried remains of
that prosperity the significant epitaph of the
Spaniard: "I was well—l wished to be better—
and here I am !”
(fj- Captain Read’s sentence is received with
derision by the press generally ; and those who
inflicted it, will be remembered as men more anx
ious to screen guilt, than to do justice; more
tenacious of their own usurped authority, than
solicitous for the welfare of the Navy, and the
supremacy of the Laws. Even the New York
American, one of Capt. Read’s apologists in ad
ranee, says, “ the sentence seems to us, and will
we think to the public, inadequate to the of
fence 1” The sentence 1 Can it be called a sen
tence ? Call it playtime for a year—exemption
from duty, but not from pay —a favor and privi
lege in fact. Yet wo anticipate good from its very
leniency—from the most evident and palpable
partiality that dictated it -for it will open the
eyes of the people to the declension in the
character of the Navy, to the causes which
produced it, and to the humbug system of Courts
Martial to try Post Captains and Commanders.
These gentlemen must not be the tribunal for try
ing themselves. If it was doubted before, the late
Court Martial has established the radical defect of
the system. Had they tried a Junior instead of
her citizens.
a Post Captain—that is, one of themselves—all
men know that cashiering would have been in
stant and inevitable. The big flics break the
meshes and escape—the little ones are caught and
held fast. —Richmond Whig.

Philadelphia Gazette, of the insurrection which
took place among the blacks at that port on Sun
day the 13th of July, but publishes the sentence
and decree of the authorities, by whom six of the
ring-leaders were tried and convicted. The sen

Our readers will doubtless read with interest,the
accounts of the insurrectionary movements at the
West, and will probably feel more personal con
cern in the matter, from the disclosure that the plan
extends itself throughout the entire South, inclu
ding our own Slate of course. The vigilance of
our fellow-citizens on this subject, should at all
times and on all occasions be exerted, but more
especially at this lime when treason is hatching
within, and our enemies from without are assail
ing us, by every means within their power; inun
dating every Post Office with vile incendiary
pamphlets and newspapers, got up by those mis
creants to instruct our servile population in the
art of butchering, secundem artem. The patrol
system should be vigorously pursued in every
Captain’s district, and in all our villages; and the
most vigilant measures adopted to bring to the
light of day the agents of our enemies, now among
us.—Should any such be caught at their infernal
work, much as we are opposed to mob justice, and
highly as we estimate the regular atl ministration
of the law in all cases of crime, yet for this parti
cular atrocity, we trust the murderous villains may
meet the same justice as the mad dog, and not
fail in their due reward, so long as there are
plough-lines on our farms and trees in our for
ests.— southern Recorder.

patched this morning to apprehend the author of

tured and brought back, it is to be hoped that our

Remarks. —Advices to the 24th from Europe
have been received but they are unimportant.
Our own market has been without much change.
There is much more activity in the market than
is common at this season.
Cotton. —Tile market since the 25th, the date
of our last report, has exhibited no new features ;
it still remains without activity, yet prices have
undergone but little alteration. The transactions
consist of sales to spinners and shippers, and ship
ments on owners account; they amount in all,to
about 2400 bales, sly 1600 Uplands at 174 40
19) cents; 200 New Orleans at 18 to 21; 300
Alabatnas at 18 to 22, and 300 Floridas at 17)
to 21. By the packet ship Roscoo we have re
ceived accounts from Liverpool to 24th June;
prices there were about the same as at our pre
vious dates, with rather a bettor feeling—Uplands
are quoted at 9}d to 12)d sterling per lb. Sales
of the week preceding 16,040 bales.
Cotton Bagging. —There is a fair and steady
demand but no change.
Coffee. —There has been no demand whatever
for export for the last month. The sales are whol
ly for home consumption. Prices continue quite
uniform. The sales since our last are as follow :
700 to 800 St. Domingo 11 cash and 11J a 12
time; 30 Laguayra 14.
Sugars. —Generally have been in a very quiet
state; prices however arc firm. There will not
probably be any activity in the market until busi
ness is more lively. Wc estimate, the stork in
first hands as follows, viz—New Orlcina 2000
hllds; Porto Rico and St. Croix 3000 do; Brown
10,000 boxes; White 250 do Com. Adv.
New-Orleans Market, July 25.
Cotton, —Stock 14875 bales. Wc have not
thought worth while to alter our quotations for
Cotton, as we deem if of no great importance this
late in the season, when actual sales am given,
and when there is so little inquiry, and consr
opinion of those we have consulted on the
qeunlly so little doing as at present; hut
the market, as evidenced by the few sales
that have been made, is down fully ) cent;
such in fact is the subject, some of whom are
willing to sell at this decline, while others are
holding backin anticipation of realizing something,
better. The following are the only sales worthy
of mention of which wo have heard, viz: 560
halos Mississippi at 17) cents, 500 Alabama and
Tennessee at 17} cents per lb.
Sagal'. —The weather ha i been so wet that no
business of arty consequence could well have
been done, even if there existed a disposition to
purchase; but at present rates there are but few
buyers, as holders arc strenuously insisting on 8
aß} cents for what is termed prime Sugar. Or
ders for the purchase of a considerable quality
have been received, but those to whom they are
addressed, find it impossible to execute them at
the limit given. Cleared this week, for New-
York, 4 hhds.
Molasses. —A few barrels continue to he
brought from lime to time, and are disposed of at
prices ranging from 33 a35 per gallon. No clear
ance.—Price Current.
Liverpool Market, June 23.
Cotton, —There has been only a very limited
demand for Cotton to-day—the sales not exceed
ing 1500 hags,—During the week, 16,040.— N.
Y, Com. Adv,
Liverpool Market. June 23.
The 21at instant was Sunday. Yesterday the
sales of Cotton were 2500 bags, and to-day
they are 1500 hags. There has been no ad
vance in the last few days, in any description
of Cotton, and the accounts from Manchester
continue to state that the demand for heavy
goods is very limited, and for light goods and for
Yarn, the market is steady, though without ani
mation. We think the lower qualities of Cotton,
which have been the most neglected, are scarcely
so dull as at thn beginning of last week,
June 24.—Tho transactions in Co ton con
tinue to be on a limited scale with us, lint tho
firmness of holders has kept prices remarkably
steady, and we can make no alteration in our quo
tations of 16th inst.
Tho Manchester buyers appear careless about
allowing their stocks to undergo further reduc
tion, hut wc think the late accounts from the
United States are calculated to add to the confi
dence already gaining ground amongst importers,
and wo are. led to oxneet some improvement on
the returning demand by tho trade, which, must
occur shortly.
■Speculators arc on the alert for any cheap par
cels to he purchased, and there appears a daily
d'minishi ig choice of good clean useful Citton,
nearly all that remains being off the market for
higher rates.
Since Friday, the transactions up to last even
ing amount to about 7006 bales, with a firm and
pr imising market. For tho next three weeks we
look for light receipts, which will add to the con
fidence of holders generally.
Speculators continue to buy sparingly, and
many export orders remain unexecuted, in the
hope of accomplishing them on better terms,

ATTEMPTS have recently lieen made by a
house in the city of New York, to practice
unu of the most unblushing impositions over con
ceived by tho most designing.
It is known that “ Huwand's Topic Mixture,”
after nn extensive trial of its merits through:) it
the country, has proved its usefulness to such uni
versal satisfaction, as a thorough and radical cure
(or Fever and Ague, as to have become identified
with the neceusitics of a great portion of the inha
bitants of the United Slates.
The unbounded popularity, tbo.rafjre, that this
medicine has secured to itself, has excited tire cu
pidity dice lain nostrum venders oforntoriety,who
have dared to mix up a trash, bopiil'Mo palm it off
upon the ignorant and unwary, as tho genuine
“Rowand’a Tonic Mixture,” For this purpose
they have substituted a fictitious name, in sound
and appearance very similar to the true “ Row
and’s Tonic Mixture.” The border of tire enve
lope has been very closely imitated, and ope half
of its reading matter purloined, whereby
right of the author has been irfringed t and Lave
without authority and fraudulently made use of
the names and certificates of highly respectable
individuals, who have testified to the value and
excellence of tho true “ RowamTs Tr nic Mix
ture,” attaching tho same to the base and spurious
imitation. This trick cannot sneered amongst
the careful ami intelligent part of the community
—but is calculated to deceive to a dangcronu ex
tent, the ignorant and uncautioun. Legal pro
ceedings, however, will bo immediately instituted
to punish the fraud, and at the a uric time an ap
peal is earnestly made to all who may have an i
opportunity to expose the imposture, to extend
their influence in order to protect distrains and (
suffering from such inhuman designs.
