Mr. Joel Crawford of Hancock county, and Mr. George It. Gilmer of Oglethorpe, arc annonoed in the Milledgeville papers, {e by authoity as can didates for Governor at tho election in October. Col. Lamar of Macon, and Mr. Dougherty of plarc County, we believe, yet hold out as candi dates jfcr Congress. Dr. Waddel, President of Franklin College, has resigned tne situation which ho has so long and ably filled, and the Rev. Alonzo Church, Profess ed Mathematics in that Institution, has been clect | iu his place. ! rom accounts received through various chan nels from Athens, it appears evident that King Caucus has been unable to arrange the conflicting claims cf the different candidates, but that indi. vidual selfishness has prevailed over party discip line, and those wno conceive their talents should be no longer -hid under a bushel, have determined to run. on their own bottom. If so, God speed ’em all! The system of caucus dictation has too long been submitted, to, and we are pleased in noticing any decline of its influence. Lot the voice of the people, free and unrestrained, decide upon the merits of the different candidates. Bolter is it by far, that they should sometimes err, than that a self-constituted tribunal should interfere between them and the freedom and purity of the elective franchise. Though the one may sometimes intro duce weakness and imbecility into the adminis tration of the laws, yet the otqcr saps the funda mental principles of our government. The Augusta Constitutionalist seems sadly cha grined that the authority of King Caucus has not been equal to his good intentions The proceed ings A-thens are noticed in the following terms of reproachful irony: “ We have hoard (says the Editor) from Ath ens. Our familiar has not been overly commu nicative, but we shall hear more anon The news is that a caucus was held—the names of Chairman and Secretary aie not known, tut we subjoin some account < fits actings and doings, viz : after some debate it was determined— 1. Tii it party c trife is a wholsoiae check upon the abuse of. power. 2. Tint the Clark party mnot strong enough to oflfbrd that check iu the present aspect of our af* : (airs. 3. That new- parties and combinations shall be forthwith established. Therefore it was unanimously resolved: 1. That two of the most respectable, well tried j and faithful democrats, be selected as rival candi- ) *’ t j dates for the government of Georgia ; which will j no doubt very soou eliect tlie object intended, arid eo much wished. 2 That Geo. R. Gilmf.rand Joel Crawforu, Esquires, be and they are herby selected for that purpose. 3 As auxiliary to the end proposed, that candi. dates from every part of tho State ha, and they arc hereby invited to come forward to fill tho vacancy O ocasioncd by the resignation of Mr. Gilmer, and by their efforts, increase the political contention and strife, which is now so desirable to those who seek in tho confusion to “ ride on the whirlwind and direct the storm.” 4. That the Clark pirty bo respectfully requested to remain quiescent in the present crisis ; and let their old political opponents decide on their differ* encs among themselves, without any extraneous and improper interference.” Only think now, of the enormity of accusing King Caucus, whose faithful subjest the Editor has hitherto been, of an attempt to revive thq ‘slumbering embers of party strife, and of sowing the seeds of political discord and confusion! Why this is rank treason—rebellion against their liege jord! And then to accuse their old friends, Gil mer and Crawford, of being used as the instru ments of such a base design* Let the Editors be ware, King Cancus is not to be trifled with ; and in these times, when the policy of punishing and rewarding Editors is in fashion, they will soon find that they must change their tone, or be “ ref or med ” out of the ranks. A Privatp letter received from Washington j County, Alabama, under date of the 2Gt!i ult. j states that the crops in that section are far supe* ; rior to any that have been raised within the last 1 four years past, and that the country generally is peculiarly blest with health. ’ We copy from the Georgian cf yesterday mor ning, the following account of the exercises at A thens, furnished by one of the Editors of that pa per. Athens, (Geo.) 7th August, 1829. Th® examination of the under-graduates, which closed this day week, was in the highest degree creditable to them, as indeed were all the exercises of the Students, that I had an opportunity of witnessing since my arrival at this place. But perhaps the best evidence of the onward progress of the Institution to fame and usefulness, will be found in the numbers attached to the seve ral classes, jest before the close of the Col legiate year, which were 105 altogether; and likewise in the actual and prospectve applications which have been and are about to be made for admission. On Saturday ‘25 candidates presented themselves before the Facuity for the blush ing and uncertain honors for the Freshman year ; et horribile dictu , even these that are the humblest emblems of distinction in the grove of Acadsmus were refused to one fifth of them. However, it is expected that there will be a further influx in another week*s time, when the present short vaca* tion will have ended and the first term of the new Collegiate year re-commeoce. On Sunday, the 2d inst. the commence ment Sermon was preached by lb® Rev. Mr. Hoyt, the Pastor of the Presbyterian Church in Washington, Wilkes county; and was a discourse cot only every way $4?Ai\yAH, THURSDAY MORXIXG, AVGUST 20, 1829, worthy of the occasion, Ynst, powerfully calculated to advance the reputation of this eminent clergyman as well for great lear ning, as fur ability ia upholding the doc trines of unr!e£i!ed religion, or fer zeal in his labors to carry the precepts of mere morality to tho homes,, the business and bosoms of wordly-minded men. The sub ject of it was the importance of self gov eminent, admirably drawn from the text, which was xxv chap, provenbs, 28v, The following day Was marked by little else except tlie interest displayed on account of its having been set apart fur a meeting of the Board of Trustees. They are 17 in number, all of whom were iii attendance, excepting the three last mentioned iu the list given below: Hon. VV m. 11. Crawford, of Oglethorpe co. Edward Payne, Esq. of Clark co.

Hon John M Berrien, of Savannah* Alter organizing, the usual standing Com mittees were appointed; as also, one to confer with that venerable patriarch in the Literary History of the Southern States, Dr. Waddell, upon a tender made by him some time since, of his resignation cf the Presidency. v * Tuesday was more diversified in its sha* racter: —the morning was occupied in wit nessing exhibitions of elocution and origin al composition by 10 or 12 members of the Junior Classes, selected from the Collegi ate Societies, called the Demosthenean and the Phi-Kappa, by the two rival bodies respectively. In the afternoon, a company composed emirely of Students attached to the institution, paraded, and marching through the town exhibited the martial ap pearance and acquirements of the corps to groups of admiring spectators, collected to gether from every part of the State. Before he was a graduate, it was commanded by our townsman John M. Cuyler; and further has a uniform resembling that of the S, V. Guards. A little after dark, the two Col lege edifices were illuminated; after which, the “lookers ou” vanished also, some to Church, a few to the chambers of the drow sy god. and the rest to tlie examination of that portion of political astrology, which teaches us how to defiae the shadows of coming eveuts. Bat, the next was “The day, the great, the important day, Big with the fate if Cato and of Rome:* 1 For by this time, it had been fully ascer tained by tho Committee of Conference, that Dr. Waddell could not be prevailed upon to withdraw his resignation;—where upon the Board of Trustees proceeded to the choice of a successor, when, upon coun ting out the votes, it appeared that the Rov. Alonso Church, (then Professor of Mathematics,) was unanimously elected. After this, they proceeded to the Chapel, attended (he exercises usually had upon the occasion of the commencement, and then witnessed the Baccalaureate degree already awarded by them, conferred upon the following 21 young gentlemen. Nalh’l Macon Crawford, of Oglethorpe co. Tlios. F. Scott, of Iredell co. N. Carolina. James M. Adams, of York District, S„ Ctu Wm. C. Adams, of York District, S Ca. Wm J. Vason, of Madison.

John B. Trippe, of Eatonton. Wm. Flournoy, of Eatonton. Edward C. Payne, of VVatkinsville. Gray A* Chandler, of VVarrenton. The first honor, which is the valedictory’ Oration, was conferred upon the son of the late Secretary of the Treasury ; but the se cond, or tlie Salutatory, was divided be tween Messrs. Scott of N. Carolina, and Vason of Georgia. The degree of Master of Arts, it was then announced, had been conferred upon fifteen persons, one of whom was the Rev. George White, of Savannah. This ceremony being over/ President Waddel delivered his parting ad dress to the graduates and his other pupils; and after one ®f the same purport to the Trustees, Gen. Harden, as Chairman of Conference, arose and read the complimen’ tary resolutions that were passed by the Board on the occasion of this ultimate reso lution to withdraw himself from the cares and anxieties of a most important, fearful and responsible office. On Thursday, the Board elected Mr* Megehee, (formerly an instructor at Wes Point, but latterly from Tennessee, to the Mathematical chair, in consequence of a previous determination to blend with the multi-form duties of President, that of also superintending the departments of Ethics, Rhetoric and Belles LettreS. It was also agreed to restore the Professorship of An cient Languages; and, to this Mr. James \Y add el was appointed,—a gentleman evoiy way qualified to perpetuate the tumor of his name and generation. I Since writing the foregoing paragraph, t have learned that in consequence of some sectarian excitement, demonstrated yester day in this place, by persons of a religious belief differing ibe one fioni the miter, but claiming for their own particular faith a ro tation in office with other'denominations of Christians, that iio place will uot be ac cepted until the meeting of tho S,cn tius in November next ’‘When that learned body does assemble, I hope that it will adopt effectual measures to ex clude from all literary institutions over which it has any control, polemics of a the ological or political character of any and every nature, whatsoever it may be.—All i l o clock the wh#le ceremonial of tho Commencement was closed by the delive ry of tho annual Oration, by Judge Wayne, i an honorary member of tlie Phi'Kappa; who on this occasion addressed bt th So cieties, in consequence of a mutual resolu tion to alternate, though previously it had not been the case. Tlie subject was ope well calculated to enlist tlie best feelings, and excite tho warmest sympathies of youth conceived in the writers most happy style, and delivered in tho speakers happiest maimer; no wonder then, that the discourse had every success required by the occasion, for i* first dilated upon the exalted nature of patriotism in the abstract, and then upon its beautiful character as exemplified by way of comparison in that regard between other countries ;vnd cur ow n. One word as to politics and I am done. Several gentlemen high in the confidence of the Troup party, have requested me to have the name of George R Gilmer, of the County of Oglethoipe, formally an nounced as a candidate for the office of Governor, at the election iu October next. Major Joel Crawford of Hancock Coun ty, was also confidenly spoketi ofby friends residing in his neighborhood, and who only left this place yesterday, for tho same of fice. In fact tlie campaign may be shid to have been already opeded, and a very few weeks will £j.hew us who has the vantage ground. The successor to Mr. Gilmer’s seat in Congress, is a subject even yet very much afloat in the public mind; nor does it seem altogether satisfied with regard to the valid ity of such an election, provided another proclamation bo not issued by the Govern or, — for tho oue is but the assignee of the other, entitled to dl his rights and made liable to all his disabilities. Col. Flenry G. Lamar is the only person, whose name I have yet heard as positively announced. From the correspondent of the Charleston Courier. Washington, August 2. SIB —On Thursday evening it was an nounced in tho Telegraph, that John Jack son, of North Carolina, was appointed to be consul at Martinique. Mr. Jackson has. always been a consistent and determined, but by no means violent friend of tlie late administration, and this he had avowed in the letter in which lie made application for the office some months ago. I avowed it, he represented that political opinions coilld havenothiug to dp with this office, which was purely commercial, and of no great val ue. A few days ago, perhaps a few days before Mr. Van Buren left this city, on his visit to Mr. M‘Lane, of Mr Jackson received his commission, aim as a natural consequence, the congratulations of his friends on the agreeable result of his ap plication. People began to think that the determination of vengeance, which hafi hitherto marked the measuresof Gen Jack son was exhausted, and that out of its ruins, magnamhiity'was about to step forth. The annuuciation of the appointment confirmed these hopes. A little reluctant praise was extracted from some of the opposition, who knew that Mr. Jackson, although a very discreet, was a very constant opponent of the General. But it was all a delusion; and although it carried us with it for a mo ment, it soon lost its power, and left us as we were, only with the addition of a little mortified feeling, to lend anew excitement to opposition. No sooner did the informa tion in the official organ shew that Mr. J. Jackson was appointed, than one or two of our lawyers, whose abilities have never yet obtruded themselves upon notice, nor rpade rivals sick,aad a ci devant M. D. who has abandoned his profession, for the study of letters**- all members of that Central Committee, to whom General Jackson ac knowledges so much gratitude—from whom he has recei/ed so much insight into (he characters of men and things, and by whom he submits to be governed in all matters of removal and appointments, sallied out from their offices, and posted away, leaving cli ents and clerks to shift for themselves, to the palace of the General. Sundry per sons who met them on their way, marching at the rate of seven miles an hour, in the dog days, with flashing eyes, and the saliva of indignation effervescing from the mouth, began to conjecture that they had become the sudden victims of hydrophobia; and if they had not very rapidly ensconced them selves within the mansion of the immacu late, it is pfrobable that the posse comitatus of the city, armed with pitch-forks, dung forks, rusty swords, worn out bayonets, cudgels, and all the implements of modern chivalry, would have been at their heels But before the alarm had produced tfiia for midable arraying of the natural defence of the district, the interview had terminated — the reasons sound and strong had been de livered and the result was easily deducible from the modified mien, and abated rapidity with which the gentlemen of the Cential Committee retraced their steps through the avenue.

We forgot to mention in our last the changing the name, or newly christening tho ship Brittania, which was wrecked, brought into this port, and sold to Captaiu John Morrison, On the 16th of June, this ceremony was performed with some degree of solemnity, and the ship now bears the nimß of James Webb, in honor of our worthy and meritorious fellow citizen James Webb, Judge of the Southern Judicial District of Florida.

Captaiu Brown, with cargoes of wrecked property; They report that tho’ schooner President, Captain Baker, of Providence, Rhode Island, from Matanzas, with a car go of Molasses, was stranded on Pickle Reef, on the 14th day of July. She re mained ip the most perilous situation for four days, and was at length relieved of her cargo by the above named vessels. They left the President on the reef, iu such a si tuation that it is supposed to be impossiblo that she can be brought into port. July 30 —lt was stated in our last, that the wreck of schooner President, which was cast away on Pickle Reef, would not pro bably be in such a Situation as to render it possible for her to be brought into port.— Capt.
