Guayachjilians ! The torrent of civil
dissensions has swept you along, until it
Ihas brought you into your present situa
tion. You are the victims of a misfortune
which you have endeavoured to avoid by
every sacrifice. Yen are not in fanlt; the
pconle never are ; for the people desire
only justice, quiet and liberty, gauger-
mis and improper designs are generally
ascribable to their leaders. They are the
authors of public calamities.
I know you. You know me.

name of Colombia.
Government Palace nt Bogota, Sept 11,1827.
Speech of the vice President on receiving the
Liberator in the Government House.
Most excellent Sir Liberator President—
After all the demonstrations of love,
rerpect and confidence shown to you by
the people, I, who am also a member of
the supreme administration of the state,
must confine myself to pxpressine to you
our gratification, in seeing you restored to
the capital of the Republic, and in posses
sion of the supreme authority which the
nation has conferred on you. What from
hearts that love *heir country, are faithful
to its institutions, anxious for its stability,
and its institutions, and interested in
your glory d They are assuredly, none
other, than to see the Republic again
imbed under your authority, the par
ties which have distracted it destroyed,
public quiet re-established, the rieh*s
.of the people secured, and the laws
liberty, equality and your transcendant re
putation triumphant. Should this be the
result of your efforts in the supreme na
tional authority which all expect with per
fect confidence, the vicisitudes of the Re
public and the troubles which have afflict
ed your mind as well as ours, will but have
served as a crucible to purify our love for
liberty, and what makes us deserving of it
for thfe power and stability of Colombia,
and for yourself. We will spare no ef
forts that may contribute to thp tranquifitv
and happiness of Colombia, and to the
sdory of the government. I have spo
ken.
Address pronounced by the Liberator in Congress
aft'r taking the oath.
When I first accented the charge of the
"P residency, I nromised 'to support the
constitution ns fir as lav in rav power,
that is, as a soldier, Pledged to the war
of intfependence, I marched to the sooth
jod effected the liberty of all that teritorv
which was under the Soanish dominion,—
There public was made entire Peru called
for the protection of ?ho Cnlomb'a armv,
and confided its de$t ; nins rav hands ;
she named me Dictator. She triumphed
Completely over her enemas * and under
the shade of the liberating Colombian flaw,
two sister republics were bore—Pern
and Bolivia. D’srord divided Colombi
ans. The north struggled to break tbe
fundamental laws. Fratridical cannon
were thundering. I flew to appease the
tumid*. and bv a decree (of January 2d)
re-established peace and union. Public
order and tranquility were afterwards re
stored. Tbe Congress heard the general
erv of the nation-imperiously demanding
reform. The Grand Convention was
’ summoned,' and bv this means Con
gress has saved *he Republic.—Theactu-
republican hearts in the path upon which
they have entered? We will overcome
all obstacles which oppose the perfection
and contemplation of the grand Colombi
an edifice. But it is you, sir, who are to
take the most interesting part; in the ar
duous enterprise, recognizing the re
public and consolidating its liberty ;
uniting its dismembered parts ; appeasing
the fury of factions ; concentrating in one
point tbe difference of opinions ; and,
finally, giving freedom and happiness to
your fellow citizens, who threw thewselves
into your arms and expected safety from
shipwreck.
We have not forgotten that to your con
stancy and valor, and to your sacrifices,
we owe the advantages of independence,
and the enjoyment of our security. This
recollection will forever excite, in the bo
som of all Colombians, a profound senti
ment of gratitude, which, constituting you
the arbiter of our differences, gives you,
at the same time, all the power and all the
influence necessary to produce the most
beneficial results which we can antici
pate.
EAGLE TAVERN,
QN XLSlTZrOLDS-STB.£ST, ATJCrTJSTA.
You will now, Sir, show yourself
more than ever worthy of the title of Lib
erator, which is so honorable to you ;
worthy I repeat of that name which you
have not wished to change for any other,
and which distinguishes you from those
falselvstyled heroes who being the scourge
of humanity, strive to found all thVir pomp
and grandenr on the oppression aud exter
mination of their species. The spirit of
the age has long marked out the path
which those must follow who preside over
the destinies of mankind. Colombia ex
pects that you will not depart from it, and
that as a boundless career is newlv .open
ed to your reputation and to your desires,
you will dissipate the shades with which it
has heen attempted to obscure the picture
of your glory ; will justify the admiration
which the world pays you as its tribute,
to the present generation, and to the more
grateful remembrance of posterity.
T HE SUBSCRIBERS respectfully tender their grateful acknowledgments fot the liberal pat
ronage hitherto conferred upon them, take this opportunity of informing their friends and the
public, that their establishment having been considerably enlarged, and undergone many exten
sive repairs and improvements during the late summer, fhey flatter themselves that it will now ena
ble them to tender every possible comfort, convenience and satisfaction, to all who may be induced
to favor them with their company.
B ENJAMIN DEAN, grateful for the liberal
patrouage he has received, begs leave to in
form his friends and the public, that w ith a view of
extending his business, he has connected himself
with an extensive Manufacturing Establishment
in the City of New York, from which he w ill be
constantly supplied with HATS in the rough or
unfinished state, and have them finished in this
place by experienced workmen, under his own
direction, which will enable him to get them up
in a neat, handsome style, and much better suited
to this market than they could possibly be or
dered from abroad; and he pledges himself that
his work shalVbe equal to any in the market, for
fashion and durabilitv, and that bis prices will
be such that they cannt t fail to suit purchasers
at wholesale or retail.
Persons wishing Hats made to order can be
accommodated.

EDMUND BUGG.
Augusta, September 3, 1827. ^4
Professional Respectability— Teach
ers.—When Dionysius was exiled from
the throne of Sicily, he became a school
master at Corinth. Whether he was
prompted by this step bv a desire to pre
serve the miniature of power in govern
ing boys, since he could no longer govern
men, or by his intellectual taste, we can
not say. But he probably found the go
vernment he assumed, more painful than
that from which he had been banished.—
To govern boys properly, is a more ar
duous task thau to manage men. It may
sometimes be a delightful task” to rear the
fender thought,” but the thoughts of boys
are occasionaly somewhat tough, rand
while you are teaching the young lad’s
“ idea how to shoot,” he is perhaps, teach-
ing himself “ how to shoot” with a pop
gun.
He who looks upon the world aright,
has frequent occasion to observe that the
profession of a teacher, does not receive
half the respect to which it is entitled.
The lawyer protects the rights, and the
physician assoages the bodily pains of
men; the merchant provides the comforts
and the luxuries of life, and the mechanic
ministers to its necessities. These voca
tions are important, but their relations
are between man and man ; should de
ceit or injury arise, the evils are temporal
But in the relation between instructor and
pupil, it is far otherwise. The very des
tiny of the lattei is in his tutor’s hands;
not onlv his temporal, but also, his eternal
interests depend on the early bent and
impulse given to his mind. Knowledge
mav be imparted bv the bad as well as the
the frond, and mav be productive of evil as
well as of benefit. It is in the manlier of
instruction, and in the bias which is given
to the young mind, that we are to look
for the awful responsibility of the teacher
According to the manner of his education
a bov becomes heroic or cowardly, up
right or knavish. Teach h'm to dwell
w’th pleasure on generous, honorable, and
virtuous sentiments, set before his con-

al situation of Colombia now merits the* | templation, tli*a piT»*F* and brilliant exam-
consideration of the Congress which must
iu its wisdom, weigh the measures T have
suggested, and give or denv to them its
approbation. T^e Secretary Genera!
will present the memorial. In despite of
the dismemberment with which .the Re
public has been threatened, in spite of the
almost anarchical conduct of the South
of Colombia,I hope and even promise the
Congress to deliver over into the hands of
the Grand Convention, *he Republic of
Colombia fref. and united.
Address of Sr. Vincente Burvero. President of the
Senate to the Libe ator, after he had taken ths
constitutional oath.
Sir, at this moment are fulfilled the
-wish es of all the people ©f Colombia, who
havi called you to rule over her destinies
and placed in your hands her prosperity,
glory and safety. This declaration, sir,
must fill all our breasts with the purest de
light ; the Colombians could give you no
clearer or mere authentic evidence oftheir
love and confidence. But at what a peri
od »;r, are you about t<5 take the respon
sibility of conducting ihe bark of state.—
You have already told us. It is a time
when the elements of discord have con
spired to plunge us into the abyss; when
the sea of opinion being thrown into agi
tation the tempest threatens from every
quarter j when, in fine, it seems that a
new era is about to commence in the re
public of which you are called the Crea
tor and Father. Yes sir, sad events have
happened to eclipse the splendour of our
country ; but while the history of all ages
presents to us similar political aberrations
Jtx the infancy of nations, who will arrest
pjps of history, and he stows up into man
hood, an ornament to humanity, and a
favorite of heaven, If knowledge is im
parted without reference to this great ob
ject, iris worse than useless, for it increas
es the newer and widens the sphere of
maleficence. What mournful instances
has time again and again exhibited of mis-
cmided iatellect and perverted powers.—
Where are we to look for the cause ? In
the temptations and enticements of the
world ? No, the properly educated and
well balanced mind is armed against them.
Look for it in the early obliquity of dispo
sition, occasiened by neglect, weakness
ar misrule. Go to the culprit in his cell
and ask the history of his life, follow the
great chain from effect to cause, up to his
youth, and you will learn that then was
the bias given which bereaved society of a
member and heaven of a soul.
What then should be the reward of the
faithful instructor, who performs his duty
towards his pupils ? affection and honor.—
He should be respected by his fellow man
as he is approved by his maker, and moral
ity should build as lofty a monument to
his memory, as gratitude rears to the
statesman,? or admiration to the hero.

The Stand known as the
Quaker Springs, and for seve-
years past occupied as a place of
Public Entertainment, is now offered
for Ko it. The Quaker Springs are six miles
above Augusta, on the main road to Columbia
Court-House, to Liucolp, &.c. and perhaps better
situated for a Public House, than any place in the
.eighborhood of Augusta. The buildings are in
excellent repair, and it is believed there is no
stand more celebrated for health and pleasant
ness within fifty miles of Augusta. An enterpris
ing occupant would not fail of finding an encour-
aging patronage. Possession can be had the 1st
December next, and a lease may betaken for one
or more years. The Furntiure belonging to the
house, will be sold to the person renting at a fair
valuation. For further information, apply to
