• 1 # particular studies, hut still there were soms things, to which our Attention was particularly turned e were pleased to see the attention paid to spelling and read in", which must he at the foundation ‘•fa 1 ! accurate Scholarship. The young classes were thoroughly drilled in spef- Img, somewhat as it used so he in former limes; and the older classes taught the prnciples of reading correctly and ele* pant Iy. The analytic study of the Kn- C iso language as introduced into this school is also worthy of special notice. A knowledge of the roots of our language together with the meaning of its suffixes nl ; refixes, which compose its words is deemed imlertpensihle to its correct understanding and inteligent use. And we would especially commend the intro ‘•uc;:on of the Tallin Language into the ro ‘tie o: study, withoi t m\ eitra charge. And the examination in the languages gave the highest satisfaction. ilu: it was the manner of conducting ihe examination with.its thoroughness anti extent, that are especially to he commea dcd. Ihe puplis were not examined merely iv questions and answers (which u ;ght he sot for the occasion) but were interrogated on the reason of every thing, rts to make their progress and evidence V s an exertion not merely of mernery alone ! ut of iheir minds, and judgements hav ing a; TV and clear co.nprehesion of the stuuies m which they have been engaged, if in Mathematics, the problem was first clearly stated by the pupil, then minute ‘? d-m instated on the black-hoard. And in phi osop'.y or science, one subject ailer anoths- was proposed to individuals e class and gone ovc-r in detail by iba pupils, showing that she was not ro i eating memorated; but that the mind in*.; been awakened to grasp the subject and u nderstand it. And the examination was so minute and extended as to mani fi'\ the develnpements of the powers of t!:3 I. in 1 of the pupils sh going from first prinr ip to their higher and more exten-j ed app icaii-ns. Large numbers attend-! c<! iroai cay to day and at times the deep-! cst interest was excite.! by the intelligent! ctToits of the young ladies. ! lie rrailing of the compositions of the ; young iadies took place on Wednesday j sdter noon to a crowded room, and in the i choice of subjects the most of them were happy, and ti.o style neat and chaste.— V .>ca! music was taught to all the pu pils of the school, and at intervals dur i: g the examination the audience was itdighted with a concert of the school classes m vocal music. And at night a concert was given by the pupils of the music department, a crowded audianco ■"'"3 interested for hours in the perfor- mance. There was no graduating class as this was the first term of the school and it is due to the teachers to say, that the school 1 s been taught in the church, and con sequently under many disadvantages, it is now to he transferee! at the opening of t! e next trim to the large and capacious college building erected by the trustees fur i:s neentni iation* We would cspeci -1 -'.y recommend this school to parents wishing th -ir children thoroughly educa ted, zmi who wish them under a mild ar.d parental, but firm and decided discipline that will awake the; prowers i the mind ar and make study a delight and “thus secure obediance to ail the laws of the school, together with the true ad \ a: cement in learning.

Invention, which goes far to make use ful almost ever) production of nature, hns found anew use for cotton, in which without doubt a very largo amount will ho emptied. We allude to ihemattras sc-ss now coming so favorably and ex tßtisivelly into use in preference to any articD heretofore tried. The writer of this lm tn? Jone for the lad. six months past, and has found it to possess every requisite and desirable quality of a mat tra.,s, without the objection uo frequently • ur< r ad against moss, curld hair or husk — husks moulding from damps, bad smells from the curled hair in summer, and the dampy matting of the moss.— The cotton felting, prepared by a pa!en- ( led process, has none of thf^e. annoyances is Always elastic, find will, with ordinary care, last a life time. Our friends r, way down _on the old plantations” will please make a note of this, and consider that the invention is a feather in their caps, or rather money in their purses—as the demand for raw material at home will doubtless materially increse the price.-*— ” e fee! sure that iif the real qualities of tliis mat trass are ever gr<ade known to the-public generally, five hundred thous and bale* a year would not satisfy the demand for its manufacture. The arti cle having been thoro’ly tried on the principle of steam ships, and approved by their owners, as well as by physici ans who have tried it, and strongly re commend them, we doubt not the Paten tee will make a fortune on them. The agent lor this city and the union gener J filly are Messrs. Dorcnius & Nixon, 21 1 a;k Place and 19 Murray street—iV. 1 Datj Hook (Uommunictted.) Mr. Editor.— Fermit me through the tniedium of your valuable paper, to make a few remarks in extenuation, as I think of the claims of ©e of our citizens. In the first place, however, permit me to say, that X am not exactly a Southern Lights man,(though born and raised in the south,) nor do I believe in discarding every thing that may come from the I North— whether it he good or or bad, far ;it uni it—l hope I have a little too much charity tor that. It matters but very lit he uitJeranee to me, where a tnan comes from it he is made the right way of the dirt. So long as a man is honorable and iiOticsl in all his dealings he should com mand profound respect from his fellows. .Merit should always be rewarded no matter from whence it einenates; wheth er from the high or low rich or poor. In every community, you will find a i tdass of good honest clever citizens, who I :lre kept down by the chicanery and in ! iriguo of others, less worthy than them i selve —this is the way eve.y where. But to make a short story of a long one Mr. Editor y ou have a gentleman in >our midst, industrious and enterprising, who in tny Judgement, is every way wor thy of such. I mean Mr. Ufiord, the Saddler and Harness maker on Hill street. I have watched closely the move ments oi this gentleman, since he has been a resident of our quiet little city, lie pa3’s marked and strict attention to his own business, and by the by, he never meddles or interferes w ith that of others. His work upon examination, wdi be found to he put up in the very best style and njo doubt would pass the overseers square, at all times. Hie pri ces are moderate, and many articles are realy cheaper, tl*an 1 have aver seen Uis same sold for any where else. His harness saddlery &e, are all made at home, by the workmanship of his own hands and no mistake. Call and see his estanlishmeut and then advise your friends to lend him a helping hahd, and at least to give him a call and examine his stbtk. JONATHAN. MAIIZSD On the 19:li inst. byphe Rev. W. J.

GRIFFIN COLLEGIATE SEMINARY THE next scholastic year of this institution will commence on the 15th of August next, under the joint proprietorship of the Ibrmer prin cipal, Rev. Hugh E. Morrow, and the Rev. Tho mas E Stanley, late of the United States Navy, at which time the new amt commodious college build ing, now in process of creel ion, will be completed. The Board of Trustees feel no hesitation in sta ting to the public, that no institution of the kind in Hie^Stote presents superior advantages or higher claims for patronage than this. There is not, from the mountains to the seaboard, n healthier place than Griffin, nor a town or city where there can he tound a liiglwr tone of morality. No expense will he spared lo plaec this institu tion upon a footing with die most favored in the country in facilities for improvement of every de scription. The principals of this College have engaged the services of an able and effiuicnt Faculty, and ar ’ raugements have been made to procure the most complete and extensive Philosophical, Chemical and Aslronomioal Apparatus, to he found in any institution of likccharacterin the State. In a word, iiutbing will beleli undone to Iho r” uglily educate the Young Ladies placed in this College in head, heart add manners. With such a loaution and such superior facilities for imparting instruction, we think we may safely sny no one will regret any patronage given to the Griffin Collegiate Seminary for Young Ladies.
