TO MECHANICS.!
I PROPOSALS will be received j
by the Prudential Coinmht.ee j
until lilts first Monday in April next,;
to rebuild the College Edifice lately j
burnt down, at Athens. And to the
end that Mechanics may know wfiat i
is required to be done. vyrnkiVite them [
to an inspection of the present ruin, [
and to a further commiii.icatkm with j
the Committee, on any srnhject con-i
neefed with the above object. In
the first place it must be understood, j
that the propositions made, will not!
j be binding, either to the proposer or j
; the Committee, as the same will
| have to be laid before a full meeting
j of the Board of Trustees at the time
| aforesaid, subject to their ratification
|or such alterations as they maybe
pleased to make. With this under
standing, it is requested that the
proposer will state the lowest sum for
which he will restore the Edifice to
its former situation In all respects.
Then what deductions will be made,
Ist. For omitting the mantle pieces,
which before were of the satne kind
of those in the old College. 2d.
For changing the pannel into baton
doors. 3d. For omitting the small
bed rooms attached to the sitting
rooms. 4th. For omitting one oi
the closets in the jams of the chim
neys, and sth, what difference will j
be made in the ceiling or plastering
over head. The Edifice is expected
to be rebuilt as strong as it was be
fore, and in a workman-like man
ner, ami to this end, when the build
ing is finally let, bond and security
• will be required. As the building is
| much wanted, the shortness of tune
; j in which it will be completed, will be
. | a great object in deciding on propo
sitions. The payments required
must also be stated.

REMARKS
OF
Mm. h firsts^
On the Tariff, Concluded.
But let us view tho subject sotnc*
what more in tho aggregate.. If one
thousand pounds of sugar to the a
ere be a fair average, and if it varies
from the truth, he believed it was
; below it; and if a baud can manage
live acres, and he believed from his
general knowledge of southern agri-
S culture iu relation to articles requir
ing similar- cultivation to the suirar
cano, lie can do so, wo arrive at the
conclusion, that the land cultivated
! in cane docs not exceed, and
bly falls below, one hundred thousand
acres, and the hands cultivating it
cannot exceed twenty-five, and pro
bably do not number more than twen
ty thousand. Taking, then, th<§
whole product of eighteen hundred
and thirty, at one hundred millions
i of pounds of sugar, and the molasses*
i he should not estimate, because he
j had uaderstood it would cover the
I annual expenses of the plantation on
which it was made, at least the ex
penses of cultivation—and the value
of the sugar amounts to five milfiomj
and a half of dollars at New Orleans-,
and probably two millions, or two
and a half more before it gi ts into
: the general consumption of the conn*
i try- If we divide the five millions
.J and a half between twenty thousand
> >;ands, the distributive amount Uj
leach is two hundred and seventy-live
■ dollars. It like (ristribuliciii bo
made between twenty-live thousautr,
i it* s two hundred and twenty dollars
ea*. h. Then is it just, is it-reusnnu
! ble, that the whole agriculture of the
’ country should be burdened by a tux
” f four m iillees and u bail* oi doliaap
