In doing all this it must have required an outlay of twelve or fifteen thousand dollars. li was tendered to the Grand of Georgia, m this fink'hed state, as a donation, and accepted, and from that time it has been nominally, if not really, under the supervision*of masonry, ami tlie s *■ put at ion of the fraternity has been involved in the • imiuiHt ration of its c.ffaiiv. Whatever of good it has done, and is doing for s*k iety, masonry gets the credit for it, and take the responsibili ty for whatever 1 of illiberally there 1- in its manage -i ns.

There is no niggardliness about Masonry. The history of the brotherhood, from the days of tin* wise King of Israel, to the present period, in all countries, at all times, and upon all occasions, shows thftt.jt has maintained a charac ter for benevolence and generosity . and if its repu tation, in lliis respect, is to suffer in the administra th'iiot the Southern Masonic Female College, it would be better to sever all connection with it, as soon as it can be done. On* of tlk- reasons which I have heard given, for ■h .ig::g forTim Coiii*:t, Ac, was that it would keep out II »• noisy and disorderly crowd.

Atlanta, Ga., July 18, 1857 Mr. Editor : —My hasty und ill-advised letter, written to you a few ip reference to the Bank of Fulton, lias given offense to many friends 1 designed no attack upon tlie present managers of the Bank) and suppose it to be solvent. That a portion of tlie stook is owned by non-residents no one can deny : but if the entire stock cannot be sub scribed here, we are satisfied bo long Op. it is con trolled by the parties who now represent it. The other letter was written without the know ledge or consent of tlie mercantile house with which I am connected. Yours truly, A. K. Seago. , P. S* Please give this the same publicity you did < tiie other, and oblige, A. K. S. 1 Jr j>ge Brown on Kansas.— The speech of Judge • Brown at the Canton meeting—an extract from j which we give this morning—will attract very gen eral attention among the voters of Georgia. It is a ! little remarkable that this speech, delivered on the i rh, and containing the full programme of his pros pective administration as Governor of Georgia, * should have preceded by two days the letter accep- * ting the nomination. This, however, is more a mat- r ter of form than of substance. The letter may have ’ been written previous to the delivery of the speech and kept back to undergo the usual scrutiny of friends—for there was evidently some cunning * head at work in devising its phraseology. s The most important part of this speech is that re- lating to the administration of Walker in Kansas, j and we give it entire. It fully endorses the senti ments of the Convention in regard to the conduct of Walker, whose policy he denounces as encourage- uR-nf to the emigration of Abolition votes from the States—inducing to riot, violence, blood shed and ** civil war, and finally to the overthrow of the Union. t With this opinion, we do not blame him for his condemnation of Walker as unwoithy the counte nance or support of the South. There can be no doubt, then, of the position of the Democrat ic can- 1 didate upon this point. The Augusta Constitutiona- £ lief commends the whole speech as a “strong, sound, r and satisfactory declaration of his position upon the c prominent issues of the canvass. ” If “sound and sat- t is factory’ to that journal, which has condemned both Walker and his administration champion, the I Washington Union, we are at no loss to ascertain the exact whereabouts of tlie Democratic nominee } on the questions to arise and which are destined to J exert a controlling influence on the future move- I ments of the people. r Wo have only a word to add, and that, on the con cluding paragraph of our quotation. We presume ° Judge Brown lakes the papers—at leaet that he lakes care to b • informed, in some way of the pro- f l iniuei.f pditie&l events that transpire in the country. Conceding this to be so, how, as an honest man, he ” can coinc forward ut this day and tell the people to ( l iln ir face that lie docs not believe that the policy of Walker meets the approval of the President, sur passes all comprehension. If he is uninformed of * iho v/ell ascertained views of Mr. Buthanan and nis Cabinet of the strenuous defence of Walker and his policy by the organ of the President and its se- J. vere rebuke of southern Democrats who have dared d jo question it, we must say it is a most lamentable c degree of ignorance for a candidate to rule over an c empire of nearly a million of people. if, on the other hand, he is aware of what has c transpired, and still has the hardihood to maintain f? that the President does not approve, and is not re- c sponsible for, the conduct of Walker—we shall 1 not say that lie states what lie knows to be untrue, but we do assert the belief that no other honest man J could be forced into the same position. Wo are * constrained to believe that be errs ignorantly.

A bill which was introduced as an antidote to the new Divorce bill—if* otject being 4o exempt the clergy from the duty of marrying persons divorced on the grondd of adultery—was rejected by a rote of 62 to 23. The House of Commons was mainly engaged in debating the Supply bill. On the 3d of JtnylAml Kilenborougb, iu.tlie House of Lords, called attention to the redaction in the rate of exchange with India, recently made bj the East India Company, by lowering their terms for bill of Lidia, with the object of preventing the ex port of silver. He said that it shutild be left to the discretion of the local government to remit funds to this country or not to do so, and that considerable inconvenience might result to the Indian govern ment if an v further alterations were made in their country, lie bad heard on good authority that the mutineers at Delhi bad obtained po-session of no less than live or six hundred, thousand pounds, a large portion of which was publie money. He thought such a fact indicated the necessity ot great caution in the adoption of charges of this kind, as otherwise the government of India might possibly be found unable to meet its engagements. Eari Granville said every precaution would be taken against upnecessaty dram upon the resources of the Indian government That government, how ever , at pre-amt had large bakuices at its disposal, and there was no reason to fear that it would be uu alde to meet all its engagements. In the House of Commons Mr. s' Baring call ed attention to the necessity of taking step* to fa cilitate by emigration the supply of labor in British Girina.

This important measure, it is said, will go into operation July 15. The Paris correspondent of the London Times writes: —The conspiracy of a certain number of Italians against the life of the Kmperor, seems to be marked by a more serious character than was originally supposed.

The steamer Cagliari, bound from Genoa for Tu nis, was seized by a band of armed Italian insur gents, who landed on the island of Penseaaud libe rated some prisoners. The Sapril Neapolitan frigate captured the steamer, and the troops were pursuing the insurgents. The revolutionary attempt at Leghorn was sup pressed.

The Belgians appear to have made a tour in the Principalities and commenced agitation in favor of their Union, assuring the people that the European Powers were agreed upon its expediency, and were meditating the establishment of a monarchy under a Belgian prince. It is intimated from other sources that the rupture had been brought about by Lord Stratford, and the Constantinople correspondent of the Daily News says the affair seems likely to assume some impor tance.

His sickness was very brief. The duke was in the 64di year of his age. He was the fifth in succession bearing the title. He is succeeded by his sou the Marquis of Blandford. To the notice of his death the London Times adds the following paragraph : It may not be uninteresting to our readers to be reminded here of the terms upon which the Dukes of Marlborough hold Blenheim from the nation. It was enacted in J.HJ4 that “On every 4th day of August, the anniversary of the victory of Blenheim, the inheritors of the Duke's honors and titles shall render at Windsor unto her Majesty, her heirs, and her successors, one standard of colors, with three jkurs de /is painted thereon, in acquittance ot all maimer of rents, suitsaud servioesdue to the Crown of England.’' It is by similar tenure that the Duke of Wellington holds the mansion of fitraitbfieldsaye, anil in each case the acknowledgment of the Royal or national favor is annually paid down to the pres ent time. * Thfe following scene took place on.the visit of the Queen to Manchester: His Royal Highness the Prince of Prussia, accom panied bV their Hightfesaes the Prince Consort, the Prince of Wales, and Prince Alfred, and attended by the Prussian Minister, Count Moltke, and seve ral members of the suite, proceeded to the Town Hall for the purpose of receiving a congratulatory address from the Mayor and Corporation of the city of Manchester.

It presents a terrible picture, though some allowance perhaps should be made for the Writer's evident agitation and alarm, and considerable de gree of personal feeling: Calcutta, Mgy l.tU To conceal the conuition of India any longer, is now impossible. The disaffection that has existed se long among our Nepoya from one eud of our-East ern possession* to the other has at length displayed itseii in all its meaning. You, ddubtless, are al ready aware of what has taken place at Barracks pore, a station 15 miles distant from Calcutta. One regiment, the 12th native infantry, about 200 si 10ng.2: a.- hegn disbanded, and seven companies of the 34th native infantry, about 700 men, have shared the Same fate, make in all 1,600 men, who with their wives and families, have been turned adrift to pluuuer and murder ; for the meu are not lit for labor of any kind, and their families and selves must.be fed. This, for a time, quieted Bar i ackpore, as. the disgraced men were passed over the river and the banks guarded by European sen tries to prevent their return. Other disturbances, however, ki the Northwest were soon reported, and yesterday morning, by electric telegraph, the go vernment received the news of most alarming out breaks, with great loss of life, about Meerut and Delhi. I t H* tt'lfiP.ii Ima iihhn alnmluirinrs ainnn 41. es C r That which has been slumbering since the time of .Sir C. Napier has broken out in lull vigor, and ere auother mail reaches England it is not impossible that the European population of India, that is from Calcutta upward, may be considerably diminished. This in an astounding assertion ; nevertheless it is no exaggeration. The government suppresses every kind of information it receives that is likely to create alarm, and even, it is said, pays heavily to our daily papers to do the same. It is consequent ly difficult to arrive at the truth, or even a knowl edge of what is gofag on. Shortly after the fiarraekpore affair,the 3d caval ry at Meerut stiwed symptoms of disaffection; about SO men (Sdfrars troopers) were tried by court martial, a long term of imprisonment and hard labor. The sentence was read on the pa rade ground iu the presence of the regiments sta tioned at Meerut, and the men were ironed imme diately after, and marched off to prison. During the process the native troops appeared sulky and rest{ess, but not a word was said. About midnight of the following day, however, the»r feelings being worked up to boiling point, the whole ofthe Sepoys and Sowars stationed at Meerut left their lines and proceeded straight to Delhi.— These consisted*ofllth, 15th, 20th and 74th native infantry, and the remaining troops of the 3d caval- , ry. On reaching Delhi they were joined by the 38th and 54th native imantry, and the native artillery at that station. Here the most atrocious acts were committed. Headed by the 38th, they attacked every house containing an European, and killed every man and violated and killed every woman. Among their victims were Mr. S. Fraser, the com missioner, Rev." Mr. Jennings and daughter; the death and sufferings of the latter are said to have been such as no pen can describe or heart conceive. Dr. Balfour and Capt. Douglass, commanding the Palace Guards, was killed ; and every officer of the 38th and 54th present with his corps, and visitors and residents in the place, shared the same fate, ex cept the following : Major and Mrs. Abbott, Capt. and Mrs. Wallace, Capt. and Mrs. De Teissier, Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson. The insurgents then proceed ed to the Delhi Bank, looted that and retained pos session of the building; also, the Treasury, which was well supplied. Lieut. Willoughby, iu charge of the magazine, seeing all this, at once blew it up, and, we fear, has perished by his own hands. Had this magazine fallen into the hands of the insurgents there is no calculating the mischief they might have effected. The devotion of Lieut. Willoughby is be yond praise. God grant we may hear he is still alive. At present he is missing. Tiie insurgents now hold Delhi. The Comman der-in Chief is said to be on his way from the hills ■with three European corps and a Goorka regiment. Lord Canning is frantic, and a general panic per vades India. The steamer Alma, which ought to have left to-morrow morning with the mail, is post poned with the hope that better news may arrive on Monday. The probability is, news more alarming will reach us. Other regiments may have risen, and other massacres be reported. "To protect the capital (Calcutta) General Hearsey has been in communication with the Governor-General (General Low is utterly useless) and a plan has been devised which will be carried into effect to-day or to-mor row ; it is, I hear, to concentrate our troops iu Cal cutta as far as possible. The above are facts, and I have every reason to say may be relied on with confidence. We only fear for our wives and daugh ters ; if they were safe our work would be easy. Such news as this coming suddenly upon you, it will naturally bj asked, “But how has all this hap pened V* It is easily answered, such feelings as at present possess our native army have for the last three or four years been gradually but steadily en gendered, and what was regarded as the unexam pled administration ot my Lord Dalhousie is now pecoming exposed. It is too long a story to show how his lordship is to blame for all this ; suffice it at present to remark that Lord Dalhousie was as sure of what was about to happen as I am that it has occurred. The whole burthen of his mal-ad ministration Lord Canning lias had to bear, who, to a certain extent, has been made a tool of by his predecessor. Os course everybody here blames Lord Canning for his apathy and want of decision at the first outbreak at Bai rackspore ; but I think he does not deserve so much censure as is heaped upon him, for this reason, that he has been entirely in the hands of his staff, and to them he has listened on all matters connected with the native army. When Lord Dalhousie left India he introduced his aide de-camp—Capt. Bowie of the Bengal Artil lery—-to his successor, as a person who thoroughly understood the native character, and more particu larly the Sepoy as to his habits and pecularities, and stated in all such matters he (Capt. Bowie) might be referred to with great confidence. Lord Canning in consequence dubbed him his aide-de-camp, aid to this officer’s counsels it is that so much mischief is to be attributed. It is certain that no military appointment has taken place here without his being consulted. Now what Lord Dalhousie could see in captain, now Brevet Major Bowie, no one can con ceive. But Lord Canning must and will be re-call • ed, and his staff scattered, before all goes well; and Gen. Anson must accompany him iu hi 3 homeward passage. AH we want is an independent, active man as Governor General, and an energetic Com mander iu-Chief—a Governor General who will keep his establishment at arm's length and in troduce into India as secretaries men of known ability. I am no alarmist, but I am not blind; the many years I have spent in India, the observations I have had numerous opportunities of making from one end of India (Bengal Presidency) to the other, te.ls me British India will cease to be unless speedy and energetic measures are resorted to, and unless some noble-hearted, honest-minded, and independent no bleman is sent to our relief. The power of the Go vernor General is absolute; he can make or mar the prospects of hundreds; and it is worse than criminal to leave us at the mercy of ignorant, and puffed up secretaries and aide-de-camp. Sa&ipay Evening, May IC. Since writing the a government notifica tion has been issued confirming almost everything therein detailed. Monday Ev eking, May 18. As expected, the telegraph is in, »and the news for which the mails have been detained has reached us. Nothing, that I can learn, from Delhi. From Meerut we have the following : On the evening of the 10th the troops rose as it were, cn mem sc. The I ith, iotL, and 20th native Infantry, and the third light cavalry, fell with mer ciless fury on their officers, destroying very many of each regiment; some contrived to escape. Os those killed we have the following Col. Fiunis, 11th killed ; Lieutenants Chambers and Mm. Cham bers! 11th native Infantry ; Capt. Taylor and Capt. M’Donald, of the 20th native Infantry, and Mrs. M’Don aid also killed, and many others. Dr. Chris tie ofthe 3d Cavalry, mortally wounded. Mrs. Courtnay, hotel keeper, and ail her children, with severalladies and women, were killed. How these poor souls died no one knows. It appears that the men of the 3d cavalry who were confined in goal were liberated by the insurgents, by whom the greater part of Meerut has been consumed by tire.* Many Europeans have been destroyed, whose flames have yet to be published. The excitement here is fearful in the extreme. The Governor- General is, of course, very unpopular, but more so his advisers —his staff. As I before remarked, noth ing but a thorough change will do now ; the old Dalhousie clique must be expunged ere tranquility can be restored to India. It is now midnight, and the mail leaves early to-moriow morning. A Shipwreck — Capt. Turpie, of brig E* H. Fit ter, arrived yesterday from Philadelphia, reports having come across a wreck in lat. 2H+l N., long. 73 0y \v r . ? on 27th of June. The wreck was appa rently that of a full pooped new brig. The weather being calm, Capt, T. sent his boat to the wreck, but could find nothing from which to tell her name, where she was from or her destination, all excerite ther poop bemg under water and the vessel badly broken up. No sign of life could be discovered, but from the stench which prevailed, the pieces of raw meat and fish nets that were seen lashed to the poop, Capt. Turpie was led to the belief that all hands' must have perished, ana that the dead bodies were somewhere entangled in the wreck. In the ship’s long boat, which was badly stove in and tied to the wreck were found a revolver and a daguerrotype likeness of a woman and two childien, (apparently about two and five years of age,) the youngest be ing clad in blue, the oldest in brown, and the wo man, evidently the mother, in black.

IVEY departed this life at the resi deuce of his father-inlaw, John Mixon in Dallas 00., Ala., on Saturday, June JO 1857. aged thirty-three years. In recording his death, he deserves moi c than passing • otlce. Reared and educated in the county where he died, his associations wen- strictly local, and las attach ment to his neighbors and relations trong and lasting. I knew him the c arai tor of neighbor a d friend, and ever found him affectionate and kind Fie aj>rei to no political notoriety ; neither did lie rejoice over the suc cess of one can ddate over the defeat of *.he other He was willing'rather to cultivate :i spirit of “ peat e w ith all men.” Hewa? a Christian. For. several years a consistent member of the Methodist Church, !. - * t . firm, though humble defender of its doctrine*. and l* . simple and unpretending trust iu Christ, he added, g' D o leekness, Caitib HI wore radiant with a hope of a “glorious iou.:« • ho yond the grave a happy re-union with those *• not dead, but gone before.’ He “ died in the faith,” and is now the recipient of an inheritance “ incorruptible,-:uu : nntiefiicd and that fude-th not away. In his death, an aged mother, affectionate wife, two children, brothers and -o >, ; tain an irreparable loss. His place cannot easily be tilled —he was his mother’s ‘ Benjamin,’ and staff t> con duct her weary earthly pilgrimage in safety. But • has the full assurance of his preparation to meet God, of glorious manifestation* of his acceptance l»v Him. Then weep not—nor consider thy Creator angry in thus visiting his “ chastening rod” upon thee. “ Trust him for his grace ; • Behind a frow niug providence He bides a smiling face." To the friends of the deceased, I would say, strive to emulate bis good deeds, let their recollection incite in yon a resolve to do right— “So live, that when thy summons comes to Join The innumerable caravan, that moves To that mysterious realm, where each shall tak? His chamber in the silent halls of death , Thou go uot, like the quarry-slave at night, Scoured to his dungeon,; but sustain’and sqoth’d By an unfaltering trust.-approach thy grave Like one that draws the drapery of Ms couch About him, ami lies down to pleasant dreams.” A FRIKNH.
