CONSTITUTIttNALIST. t ■- -- ---■ - , t 4UQ(JSTA‘. i FRIDAY, MARCH 25, 1825. j Although we liave delayed our paper for | that purpose, we are unable to give our ( readers to-day an account of the reception r of THE GREAT AND GOOD LaFAYETTK ill 1 thiscitv. He arrived on Wednesday after- 1 y % , y noon, at four o’clock, and left us this morn- f ing. We will endeavour in our nest to c present a correct account of this interesting « visit. We are happy to say that the cere- ' monies of yesterday were conducted with out accident and appeared to give a general j satisfaction. At the Rail last evening, the I decorations were superb, and the city is on- | dor the greatest obligations to the ladies ( who prepared them. ' General Lafayette and his family were | attended by his Excellency, Gov. Troup, \ and his suite, with General Harden and his < staff. He was met at tnis place by a Dep- 1 u tat ion from Alabama, consisting of Gen. ' Farrow, W. Barton, and A? Labuzan, | Esquires. In consequence of the busy and joyous scenes of yesterday, our editorial column is poorly filled. It was impossib’ sit down and write—while music, i id cannon were ringing in our cai ur thoughts and hearts were with Li.. cte in the crowd.

Hugh Montgomery, to be Agent for the Cherokee Indians. William M'Lellan, to be Agent for the Choctaws. Singular coincidence of circumstance in the history of La Fayette and Bolivar. South-Carolina was the first place in the United States on which they both landed, and at no very distant spots—the one near Georgetown ami the other at Charleston — La Fayette a-Frenchman, came by the way of i Spain —and Bolivar a Spatiiard, by tin; way of France. Both have most materially contributed to the independence of the New World—tin* one in North, and the other in South-America ; and what is most singular, at the very period in which the one is re ceiving the homage of national gratitude in the former—the other has succeeded in his efforts ler the cause of freedom in the latter place. ' [,C7ia«. City Gaz. |C7* That talent which lias usually shed the roost lasting and beneficial lustre over the face of human society, lias been general ly associated with indigence, ami doomed to struggle with the difficulties resulting from insipient penury. Mental energy is by no means an appendage of opulence, nor are the most efficient instruments in accomplishing the happiest purposes of man, to be found a tnong those who have never felt the incite ments of want. In a free country, where merit confers the only distinction, and where! yirtumis gifts will command the more hon- i orable and distinguished functions, both in < civil and religious life, the cultivation of tal- 1 ents and piety should form a leading object ■ I with the friends of religion and humanity. No application of genius is so rich in useful results as that which lies within the scope of j the Christian ministry; and yet it is (amenta- i bly evident that in tins high and eventful de partment the laborers arc few. This has be come an occasion of deep regret to nianyj pious individuals within the State of Geor gia, and also in other places, and if is now about two years since a society was organized upon the. most liberal principles, to aid pi ous and destitute youpg men in obtaining the benefits of learning for the moie exten sive and successful exercise of their minis try. It is intended that the supporters, and beneficiaries of this society, should belong to the various denominations of Christians! within the State, arid its funds are pledged for the most impartial administration in this respect. The subscribers, who are perfectly well acquainted with the designs of the so- 1 piety, and who feel a deep anxiety for its prosperity, take this method of recommend ing it to the attention and liberal patronage of their friends anil fellovy citizens, as an in-i wholly domestic,free from sectarian views, and promising a rich requital to the) benevolent hand which shall foster it. Its , Agent, the Rev. Mr. Chamberlain, is nowin Augusta, and will be employed during the week in making calls on the friends of re ligion to obtain donations and subscriptions , for effecting the objects of the society. He is therefore most cordially recommended to the good will and liberality of the members ' of this community. THOS. GUMMING, W. T. BRANTLY, . WM.

March 23, 1825 A gentleman who was present in Cam den at the ceremony of removing and re iutering the remains of Baron De Kalb, and laying the corner stone of the monument i by General Lafayette, informs us while the procession was forming, and just before the General appeared on the ground, a child i discovered and pointed out a star, which i was clearly visible to the naked eye, about the time the sun in great brightness passed • the meredian. Not less than 2,000 per t sons saw it distinctly, few of whom had ever witnessed a similar phenomenon, and •it produced a very pleasing sensation through the whole line The ceremony of laying the corner stone, we are informed, • was very imposing ami does great credit to the inhabitants of Camden. ; Columbia Telescope . **• Captain Morrison, from Maracaibo, states ♦hat on the 4th ultimo, he landed at Fort St. Carlos, and was informed by the Coin -1 mandant, that the Captain of a Dutch schr. from Curracoa, had reported that 2 davs before sailing, Feb* 1, a suspicious looking schooner, in company with a brig had been' seen passing the harbor, and that on the next day, 14 dead bodies, with their heads cut off, were picked up on the beach.
