and thought upon the vicissitudes to-which we
are subject in our sojourn o’er the meandering
and boisterous scenes of life's troubled wave!
And the last sad notes of the funeral knell
had now ceased to vibrate Upon my ear, as I
returned witluhese melancholy reflections from
performing the Ipst obsequies to tiie manes of
my early and valued friend. Tho beams of the
pule faced i;«jpu at intervals shone in briglil-
ness nrcuud, and. brought a sad reflection to
my mind—not.- could I but sigh with regret,
that the temporary pleasures of life wore so
transitory and fleeting; and that the fondly
cherished and gay companion of my youthful
years, had been so soon, in the active spring of
life, consigned to the dismal mansions of the
dead—“to lie in cold abstraction and to rot,
his active form to becomo a kneaded clod," nnd
to moulder in the lone recess of ihe gloomy
grave! It brought fresh to my mind the vari
ous scenes and rounds of pleasure in which wo
had participated, and admnnishod me, indeed,
that our best founded and most stable anticipa
tion hangs upon a wavering and slender thread,
liable to be severed by every passing wind! I
had known him in the gay hoars of life’s early
bloom, when fortune showered in profusion her
rarest gilts upon his course—and tho blandish
ments of pleasure, with her alluring smiles, lus-
treil his path with the sweetest flowers that
could be culled from tho garden of her delights! >

imprudent follies of his youthlul careor, he dis
sipated a patrimony that, perhaps in the frauds -

mically, but could not have been bestowed
with moro heart-felt genorosity— for he was
possessed in an eminent degree of a feeling heart

melted with kindness for the woes of the hu

FAYETTE SUPERIOR COURT.

T HE Grand Jury for the county of Fayette, hav*
ing discharged the duties pnrticul&ly assigned

of a more general character.

2. VYe present, as a. grieveance, the situation of
Franklin College, the State’s Institution ot Learning,
which seems to bear on the 8tate, aid on us as an in
dividual county; we, therelore, beg leave to submit
the following preamble to the public eye, nnd to the
members of the Legislature to read, if they cannot
remedy: After maturely deliberating on the subject
of this inititution, w ? e believe that it has fallen far
short of the design for which It was instituted; we
deem it our privilege to say, that, if the amount of
money appropriated to the institution of the State,
wns equally distributed among the different county
Academies, that it would diffuse learning moro gener
ally throughout tbc State; and the common rank of
the people, which compose about two thirds of the
population of thrstntc, would be more generally ben*
efiied, by bringing the menus of education more di
rectly within their reach: We moreover recommend,
that the appropriation tor the tuition of a student from
each county, be thrown into tho academy funds of
each county: We also recommend that the Grand
Juries throughout the State take the above matter in
to co.isid' ration, and recommend tbc Members of the
Legislature from each county to endeavour to adopt
a remedy for the same.
3. VV have appointed n Committee of the follow
ing members, to wit. Thomas II. Gay, Berry W.
Gideon, Robert Chambers, and Wilimm Reeves, to
