was yesterday presented to the Presi-
jir nt of the United Statu9, hy the Secre

The estimable character and correct
conduct of this gentleman, who hus long
heen known in the United States, con
tribute to give an uinisiial interest to
this incident, added to the circumstance
of Ins being the first perron received in
a diplomatic character from any of the
republics of the South,
We regret to learn that the infirm
state of the health of Mr. Torres had
for some time delayed his reception,
and are gratified to find that it is now so
far restored, that he lias been enabled
to repair to this city, from his residenct-
at Philadelphia, for that purpose.

MILLEDGF.VIM.F., TUESDAY, JULY 9.
QUf* III our paper of to-day, w ill be seen
the official annunciation of the election of
Ylurbidt as Emperor of Mexieo. The name
is ominous, nod from it we fear much to the
cause of Liberty. Rv recent accounts how
e.ver, it is stated, he feels a lively concern for
the independence of every part of Sooth
America, and that his powers are limited,
and not more extensive than those of our
President.—Time only can unfold the desti
ny of that great people—Time only will
shew whether the example of Napoleon or
of oor immortal Washington, is in his eyes
more w orthy of imitation—Whether like the
one, he will fall a sacrifice to his own ambiti
ous views, or like the other, having secured
the liberty of his country, retire to the peace
of domestic life, carrying with him the hies
sings of his compatriots, and the grateful
thanks of unborn millions.
Qj s *The46th Anniversary of American In
dependence was celebrated in this place with
that degree of feeling, which should charac
terize every American breast. At the hour
appointed, the citizens repaired to the Re
presentative Chamber, where the Declarati
on of Independence was handsomely read
by Mr. P. F. Jaillet, and an appropriate
Oration delivered by Dr. John (ihuman.—
After which, they partook of an elegant
dinner, prepared for the occasion, at Mr. Me-
Cotnh’s Tavern ; at which J icl Crairford,
Esq. presided as President, arid Dr. Furl, as
Vice-President. The day was spent in jo-
d conviviality, and the company separated
in peace and harmony, after having drank

The parting of friends i« death in mi
0 istore. You have, not, it is true, the
plazed eye—the closed lip—the damp
flesh—the marble countenance—the
ghastly form, and the horrible repose of
death ; but you feel that which chiefly
embitters death, the agony of separation.
Yet we part with eur friends daily, tint)
there is somewhat of cheerfulness tnin
gled with the reluctance with which we
take leave of each other. A slight glow
on the cheek, a tremulous grasp of the
hand, and a few sighs soon dissipated in
the surrounding atmosphere, are the
fleeting memorial of the severance ol the
living.
The hope that we may meet again
and the belief that we will meet again
ami the confidence that Heaven will con
tiniie to us its merciful protection—these
are the oonsoling stamina of happiness
How wretched then must he be, who , in
death, hath not hope, because, lie hath
not faith. Religion would, therefore
be a blessing, even if its promises fail of
re’alilv. A belief in the superintending
goodness of the Deity is a safe and de
Jightful substitute when the wisdom of
Ibis world fails, as it must, and its pro
mi.es die, and its beauty fades, and its
tiope9 are wrecked and desolate.

Athens, 4th July, 1822
On Monday, the. 2Aih ult. the members of
Mount Vernon Lodge met in Athens, to ce
lebrate the Anniversary of St.John the Bap
tist. At noon, they walked in procession
from their Masonic Hall to theCoUfge Clia
p. I, where a numerous and respectable as
semblago had com died, consisting of the citi
Z"ns of ti.e Village and its vicinity, together
with the officers of the College, the Acade
my, and the members of those Institutions.
After Sacred Music and a Prayer offered by
the President of the University, an Eloquent
and impressive Oration was delivered by the
ii’ii,, 0 0^11 OI..Jt'.n, ,*ai»,.i-t.lrly virll adapt
ed to the occasion—of which, the conclud
ing part has been obtained for publication
at the earnest request of many who heard it
The memliers of the Masonic Society then
proceeded to the site previously selected for
the New College Edifice, and with the so
lemnities usual on such occasions, laid tin
, Corner-stone, of that building, in the centre
i uf which were deposited the following arti-
EXTRACT
From an Oration, delivered 21 th of June Inst,
by the lion. A. S. Clayton, on thr double
occasion of celebrating a Masonic, Festival,
and laying the Corner stone of the Arm
College Edifice, about to be erected at A-
Hens.
“ The last Legislature, wilh a munificence
that claims, mid must ever receive the no-
sparing plaudits of posterity, made an ap
propriation to the. full extent of what was
asked for the erection of a New College Edi
fice at this the seat or learning. On this day.
ive are about to lay its Corner-stone—The
ceremony usual on such occasions, is solemn
and affecting—It is a convention between
the living and the unborn, intended to unite
the simple story of the present moment w ith
the chronicle of future ages. The hands and
the hearts of those who are now employed
in this anxious rite, will shortly, in the course
of nature, tie colder than the stone they lay.
But this ceremony w ill impress upon it those
qualities,calculated to perpetuate tile strong
sensations and tender sympathies of this ac
tive croud, and convey to the generous bo
sum. yet in the clod, all those warm euioli
ons, all those ardent feelings, all those rest-
palpitations that flow from tin- mournful
memento of departed limes. There is no
[•lass of our feelings more pleasingly inte
resting than those which are awakened by
retrospection : and when an object, endear-
d to a former period by some conspicu
ous associations, is presented to our contem
plation, we seem to have arrived at the spot
where tbepast and tlie/ulwre meet to hold
a silent intercourse, to interchange the em
braces of long absent affection, to enjoy the
softness of melancholy will "it its anguish, &
the serenity of memory without its ruproacii-
The desolations of time spare but few
of these rare memorials, and they stand
scattered in the gloomy waste of its deslruc-
tive current, like the shivered ti links of some
tempest-blasted forest, at wide and solitary
intervals. Here we are about to plant one of
those remembrances—the building, which
will he erected over it, will collect the. bloom
of every passing age, and they will shed a-
round this monumental tale, the rich per
fume of gratitude due to tilts generous deed.
How often, while treading this consecrated
ground, and lingering over its artless legend,
will they pour upon us the pensive tribute,
of fond recollection ! How often will lliey
tretch their imaginations to Ibis bustling
scene, and in the inusings of a lonely hour,
dly enquire, where are all its busy actors !
As long as our race continues, it will, in
every period of time, be subject to the same
passions and desires, but the same habits and
manners will not remain, these am ever
changing with the varying circumstances of
man. The beautiful tokens which ive this
day deposit in the bosom of this stone, in
tended as a present for future generations,
and exhibiting the indications of tho gay .-11111
tasteful character of the age, may one day
excite tho smile of innocent, but amusing
speculation. If, however, (hey should serve
to he the faithful missionaries of some bland
allusion of useful import to those who shall
hereafter probe the secrete, if lliey shall che
rish an affection favorable to the liberality
which has reared this Edifice, and kindle,
from the glow of emulation, a kindred senti
ment betokening an increasing zeal for the
progressive improvement of mental and phy
sical science, w e shall have accomplished all
that could be desired, and, in that fond anti
cipation alone, meet a just reward.
“ What theme is so sublime as that which
points to the object of this fabric? When
ive contemplate the present character of the
world for its learning and religion, the depth
of its research, the dignity of its science, and
the stately order of its eloquence, how obvi
ous is the inference that posterity will have
committed to its charge an awful responsi
bility. To support this character, this Insti
tution will be summoned lo tend its ai I—
and may we not indulge tbe pleasing rrvery
that the part it is destined to bear, will he
upheld with becoming vigor and distinguish
ed splendor. This stone which ive are de
positing with so much solicitude, is emble
matical of that Corner-stone of literature
which may now he said to he laid hy the
State in the establishment of this institution.
The resources of Georgia, the mildness of its
government, the fertility of its soil, the res
pectability of its grow ing population, its ge
nial climate and natural advantages, all seem
to demand the assertion, without a breach of
decorum, that its rank in experimental and
political knowledge will be far from being
either contemptible or secondary. Hen
will be collected its moral materials to he
fashioned and moulded by the skilful hand
of instruction, so as to occupy with suitable
lustre, those important stations, which it w ill
lie its exalted pride arid higher destiny to
maintain. Could we with prophetic vision
be permitted to explore the extended rang-
of future time, what gladdening prospects
would arise to view, in the diversified rich
ness of those philosophic treasures that shall
spring from this eventful era I What an in
tellrctual landscape, arrayed in the verdant
garniture of taste, and gilded hy the prisma
tic tints of science, passes across the field of
our mental perspective ! Let us unite in
one common and fervent orison to Heaven
that this bright portraiture may not prove to
he the illusion of an empty day dream.”
(f7=* Editors of papers throughout the state.
are. respectfully requested to give the above an
insertion.
(■-infi-M the truth, lliey here hrougli forward
something which nt fust sight limy appear like
evidence of the fact. Hut proofs of this kind
ore often rerydeceptive. And it would lie high
ly ungenerous to convict a high minded man
nf dishonorable conduct out of his own moulli
—or conjure up little scraps of paper like this,
in judgment, against him. We insist upon it,
ibi- transaction is very unfair and of n danger
oils tendency. What honorable and high mind
ed man will ever dare to put his band lo paper,
if such an innocenl transection is to lie tortur
ed into <tic means of bis own condemnation.—
We protest against the whole paragraph, prout
and all, and have no doubt, but tbc Shi-rilf and
his deputy will most heartily do the same. ’
By this piece it will be seen, the Editor
admits we have “ brought forward some-
tiling, which, lit first sight, may appear like
evidence of the fart." But proofs of this kind
are often very deceptive. Why not point
out the deception, nnd shew that this some
thing, which at first sight appears like evi
deuce, is not, upon examination, conclusive /
It is because he has been convicted of " dis
honorable conduct, out nf his own mouth,”
or by a “ little” scrap of (taper in the shape
of a receipt under his own hand ? “ lie
protests against tbe whole paragraph, proof
fi all, and has no doutit, but the Sheriff and
bis Deputy will most heartily do tho same.”
And we have no doubt every Convict in
tlie Penitentiary, and all his friends, will
most heartily protest against liistiial, con
viction, Judges, Jury, proof, prison and all.
P»ut what good will it do ? Will it prove the
Deputy lias not been guilty of the fact charg
ed ?—As well as that the Convicts were not
guilty of the dimes of which they were pro
perly condemned. We will conclude w ith a
word of advice to Mr. D'Lyon, to refund the
money obtained by this dishonorable con
duct, and to his friends, to let the subject
sleep forever. A man’s friends are some
times iiis worst tnemies.
