Flkjuhgton, Liberty Co, Ga.,) * December 17, 1866.) Mr. Editor: 1 send you a communication, which you will please publish, advocating the chums of FiemingtonlAcademy, of Lib erty, upon the counties of the seaboard. I am encouraged to do thia in consequence of tlie comae your paper has pursued. Your editorials testify to the fact that you are the friend of all intelleciual and physical improve ments in which our State is engaged. Your advocacy of the common school system tor Georgia, is worthy of your head and heart. I hope we shall yet see the day when this system will be completed, and every youth In Georgia be educated. But to return to Flemington Academy. This institution is located in the village of Flemington, Lib erty county, three miles from McIntosh sta tion, Gulf Railroad. It is one among the oldest in the State, having been in existence (with short intervals) lor u half century. A large number of yeung men have been pre pared for college within its walls. We have no institution on the qoast where instruction is more thoroughly imparted. The present rector, Mr. W. W. Winn, was born and raised in this county, graduated at Franklin College, Athens, Ga., in 1840, has since taught eighteen years, sixteen of these years in Flemington Academy, which gives him much experience. His annual examina tions embrace (be last week in June, to which the public are invited to attend. The academy is open for inspection by the trus tees and patrons at all times. As a disci plinarian, Mr. Winn has few snperiors; he is kind and firm, secures the affection of his pupils, and has decision of character to con trol. I know of no institution where better order prevails. Mr. Winn is a man of piety, and he opens the institution every morning with prayers. Strict attention is paid to the morals of the pupils. Some twenty or twenty-five pupils can ob tain board at twelve and one-half dollars per month in pious and intelligent families. It is vacation with the school at present, but exercises will be resumed again on the first Monday in January; 18G7. Tuition, $5 50, $7 50 and $9 lor the languages per quarter. Music taught in the village by au intelligent and accomplished lady. The village of Fleminglon is a branch from old Midway church. We have an or ganized church, services every Sabbath, and a prayer meeting on Thursday evenings. The church and academy are located to gether. There is a moral influence that per vades our village, not surpassed in our land. Parents wishing to educate their children coaid not do belter than to send them to this institution. The question arises here, we are poor aud property lost, aud can we educate our chil dren ? The reply is apparent, shall we des pond, and, under this despondency, permit our children to grow up in ignorance? Where is the intelligent parent that would not be ashamed to have his children grow up in ignorance ? We must make an effort, and a great effort, to sustain our institutions and educate our childreu. Confederates in Paris. [From Correspondence of Chicago Tribune.] Among the gay equipages that dash aloug the Boulevards and through the' Champs Elysees every pleasant afternoon, is fre quently to be seen that of Mrs. Benjamin, wife of Judah P., late Secretary of State of the deceased Confederacy. It is a well gotten up affair, and its appearance indicates that Mrs. Benjamin is not in a suffering condition so far as finances- are concerned. Her hus band lives in London, at No. 10 Sackville street, most of the time, and is said to have done very well, pecuniarily, since his admis sion to the English bar. OEOEOE N. SAUNDERS. Nearly every pleasant morning last sum mer there sat, for an hour or two, on the pavement in front of the Grand Cafe, a short man, with one of the reddest faces imagin able, by the side of a decanter containing the best quality of cogDac. The name of the man was, and perhaps still is, George N. Saunders. He is reported to have left here suddenly several weeks ago, and his present address is said to be London. The last time I saw George he looked rough, but he was as good on the corpulent question as when ho acted the part of supe in the tragedy of “Treason.” H» is said to be broken down financially, and to have lost the confidence— if he ever possessed it—of his former em ployers. The simple fact that he was seen a great many times last summer in the vicinity of French brandy, is proof positive that he has changed his diet since he left the United States, because before his departure he dined at restaurants that sold nothing but “Bour bon" aud “Chestnut Grove.” BRECKINRIDGE. John C. Breckinridge was here during the summer, but I understand he ha9 been rusti cating at Versaillesfor several weeks. While here his Wardrobe was in first-rate condi tion, and did not give out the least idea that its owner was. in ueed ol pecuniary assist ance. Nearly every “exile” in Paris is said to be in comfortable circumstances. They have, in some measure, a society of their own, into which all who were given fo the bad habit of wearing grey clothes a couple ol years ago can be admitted without much lormality. GWIN. Duke Gwin left here for the United States last mouth. Rumor credits him with having pocketed a handsome sum when the Sonora colonization scheme collapsed ; however that may be, it is certain that he supports his ex pensive family here in grand style, and is in the habit of weariug cloihiug quite as flue as that worn by his friend the Emperor of France.

View ot tke Freed* mem. The Savannah correspondent of the Bos- :ou Post, writing over the signature of “Bos ton," sends his paper the following: Lo the poor negro! I have traveled extensively ’•trough tbo South recently, and the picture is the -me. everywhere. The negro has been suddenly •■crown upon his own resources, and is'Jot prepared :r, end does not understand the situation m which hi Northern friends (7) have been so tong desirous of placing him. Therein plenty of work for bun to do, his former master* are anxious willing to pay him; but beyond the satisfaction ol h» Immediate wants, he will not work, He U not f'evident, and his mind la filled with mat the rivulets will all run whiskey, that corn-cake *‘3 grow cooked to a turning on the hushesiby the •’-ilude, and that hogs with forks in their backs and hhvfcs m their teeth will come to him roasted and -'gging to be eaten. When they work they demand ‘urbitant wages from their employer* ere '• their contracts, and seem to think it * part of tkeir Q -v to oe obstinate and insulting, or * nd . Btht to those who hire them. I wee walking to the [**Uon this evening with e sin ell cerpei bag m niy ^d, and when a few squares distant from * P°°r half-clothed, haltetarved looking negro led, leM- ! n 8 against a fence by the sidewalk.

T The incident is very illustrative of the negro idea of labor. The result of all thia la starvation, misery vagabondage. I think it safe to estimate that “°ui 8,000 to 10,000 negroes will die in Georgia in the coamg winter from exposure and starvation.

Cassels, Chairman Board of Trustees F. A. [COMMUNICATED.] Griffin Female College. The undersigned committee, appointed by the trustees of the Griffin Female College to present some of its claims to patronage, beg to say that this institution of learning pos sesses one feature scarc-ly kuown in the his tory of colleges, viz: that, while nearly all others have Kent out agents to solicit endow ments, this one, notv nearly seventeen years old, has been thus lar self-sustaining, never having asked the" contribution of a dollar; ind so wide-spread was its fame for sending out graduates thoroughly educated, that, until the war broke out, there was really no necessity of appealing to the public for pat ronage;'but now, after a partial suspensiou of this school, sheer justice calls upon us to appeal to the friends of education every where to patronize ii, or to recommend its patronage to all who desire their daughters to become thoroughly educated in the higher branches of learning. We can assure all that the Faculty of the college are not only eminently qualified, but have, by long years of unremitting care, shown their fitness for the ^position they occupy; in short, we con fidently assert that no college in this or any other State presents higher claims to patrou- age. To those who are unacquainted with the location of Griffin, we take pleasure in say ing that we know of no ‘locality more re markable for health. The water is .very much the same as At Marietta, so celebrated for its purity. Th« morals and taste of the citizens will favorably compare with any other town or city. . ... There are five churches, each having an efficient pastor, and as this school is no wise sectarian, the parents or pupils will choose their place of worship. It is due to the college to say that Fro lessor Scheller is esteemed to be one of the best music teachers in tbis or any other C °GriSn is easy of access, being situted on the railroad from Macon to Atlanta, 60 miles from the former and 40 from the latter- Parents and guardians may rely upon get ting board on as good terms berc as else where, and the rules of the college guarantee a watchful care over the denortment of the pupils. . . . .. And now we appeal to the citizens of Grif fin to sustain this college. The growth and prosperity of this coUege is intimately con nected with the growth and prosperity of the city Before the war, more than fitty thous and dollars was expended annually in Griffin by the pupils. Almost any other city would subscribe enough to endow one or two professorships, if, by so doing, they would secure the location of a first-class college in their midst, while, in this case, two enterprising men years ago vested their all in this college, and *sk now only that the citizens send their children as pupils. Will the people of Griffin do this, or will they suffer the college to go down, and compel the faculty to accept situations tendered elsewhere ? Newspapers favorable to education would greatly oblige the board of trustees by giving the foregoing an insertion. J. W. S. Mitchell, ) C. Pxeples, > Committee, A. D. Nunnallt, ) The Scarcest.—At a recent railroad din ner "in compliment to the fraternity, the toast was given; “An honest lawyer, the noblest work of God.” But an old farmer in the back part of the house rather spoiled the effect by adding, in a load voice, and about the scarcest." A boarder at one of our city boardin, houses, says an exchange, on being asked how they lived there replied that the hash was rather doubtful, but the beef J**® “bully-" The dubious endorsement failed to attract a new boarder.

PAVIS. [From the Mobile Daily Times.] We were favored yesterday with a visit from that distinguished and virtuous Prelate, Bishop Lynch, of South .Carolina, who left Mobile lust evening for his Episcopal See, via Tuscaloosa, where he will finally part from his brother, the Ri .htReverend B.shop of Mobile. lu ibe course of this instructive and in teresting conversation, we heard from the lips of the venerable Prelate himself, the uartieulurs of bis parting interview with His Holiness, Pope Pius IlC, just about a year ago, aud when it was feared that Bishop Lynch would be persecuted on his return lo his native State, under the ridiculous charge of having visited Europe in the capacity of private ageul of the Confederate States. His Holiness, after expressing (as he had doue before to the American Envoy, Mr. Kiug,) his anxiety about the tuture safety of the Bishop himself, then broke out in his most touching acceufs In behalf of His Ex cellency, Ex-President Jefferson Davis, lor whose exemption from persecution he said that he was constantly offering up his prayers to the Almighty, aud then concluded with these simple aud touching words; “I hope they will do nothing ugiy lo him"—as if the imagination of the good old mau could not realize anything beyond “ugly” as threatening the illustrious State prisoner. How little could the Holy Faihei dream of the bloody projects and sanguinary designs of the Radicals! And lhu9, when the whole world, and alas! perhaps even the South, seems to have for gotten the illustrious leader r.f an unsuccess ful but ever glorious revolution, when the Princes of the earth, who were anxiously watching the capricious turns *f the wheels of fortune, ready at the’first favorable mo ment to admit as an equal amongst the rulers of nations the brilliant statesman whose genius was counterbalancing tbe armed mil lions of the North, when those Princes have- not this day a word of mercy to be spoken in his behalt, it is tbe poor, persecuted Bishop of Rome, threatened on every side by the vile hordes of European Radicals, and per haps on the eve of bidding an eternal adieu to the Eternal City, where St. Peter sealed with his blood his holy aposlolate—it is that poor old mau, one foot in exile aud the other in the grave, who utters words of meicy for the fallen chief, who to-day, like Christ ex piating the sins of man on the Calvary, ■ is atoning with his fast declining life for tbe errors—no—the just aspirations of the South.
