whrlfli he .waa enael in ‘lislilling atvl retailing ardent spirits, in defiance of the entreaties and expostulations of many of his friends. We are not fully satisfied he was influenced by pure and conscientious motives, while prompting his brethren to adopt an Article of Faith, by which thev declare non-fellowship for all bene volent institutions, Bible Societies, Sab hath Schools and I emperance .Societies. We are not convinced it was horn pore and conscientious motives, that he, as Senator from Spalding - County, in the re ’ cent Legislature, did all in his power to prevent the Temperance Petitions ever, from being read —thus, denying the right of petition to, and ‘‘treating with con tempt” thousands of citizens whose char ’* actfcrs are as consistent, and whose ino *'• ‘“fives, perhaps, are as pure and conscien tious as his own. Tour correspondent seems to have ta-. ken up the idea, that the Knights of Je-1 rieho have, unjustly and without cause, made an a’tack on the character of Rev. Wm. Moseley. Whereas, exactly the Teverse is true. Asa worthy and re expectable body of men, they saw proper to apply to th Legislature for an act oi incorporation. He opposed their wishes, and did his utmost to defeat tliem, (ill which effort, however, he failed.) dirl so, because one of our objects is ‘ the promotion of Temperance.” His past course warrants this belief. D.d he ever deny an act of incorporation to a Ijodge Masoi s? KNIGHT. The following advertisement was sent •to us in the form of a communication (to -aavo expense, we suppose, and get the printer to work for nothing.) As Messrs Morrow and Stanley luti no hand in its -decoction and give us a liberal share of -their pay priming, and also as we believe the strictures and commendations in the communication to bo just anil deserved - towards these gentlemen, as well as Mr. Briggs and his pupils, we have determin ed to in-et t it, with our protest, however, against filling our paper with fr e adver tisements. For the Jeffersonian. Mr. Editor,— lt is highly gratifying to notice the growing taste tor music of a social and intellectual caste, which is per vading our community; and nothing is better adapted for such a purpose, than the “Soirees Musicale” which have been instituted hv Messrs. Morrow and Stan ley, of the “Griffin Female College,” un der the immediate supervision of Prof. George H. Briggs. It would bo highly gratifying to see the same course adopted by the wor hv President of the Synodical College. As l stated before, a taste (or music Tis progressing rapidly here, judging front the manner in which the performan ces of Prof. Biigg>’ class, on Friday night last, were appreciated by a large and in telligent audience. Possessing, as we Wo, hut linle talent “for making music,” yet we are particularly fond of “a concord of sweet sounds.” Griffin enjoys, to a considerable extent, the elements for ma king good music. All that iu necessary Jo bring about the most happy results, in this most beautiful of ail sciences, is a proper appreciation for and cultivation ol taste To say that the young ladies under the tu'.ibge of Prof. Briggs; performed well on Friday night last, would be but a supeierogation of words. They, as weli ibeir teacher ( deserve much credit for the l a pit] advancement they have made. The Musical Department of the Griffin Female College cannot do otherwise than prosper under rhe management and supervision of Prof. Briggs —who, by the way, is a verv modest, unassuming young man — jiosstS'ing, as he does, ail the re quirements of a successful instructor His place could not be easily fi led. The Institution, we understand, is in a most flourishing condition. There are a bout 180 pupils in the various branches if study, which speaks volumes for the worthy President and his accomplished associates. MELANCIIXON. Griffin, March 7, 1854. Reflection. Let then the surging waves of old o ctan’s gray-headed billows lash themselves together at mountain’s height or in the ektes —or seperate themselves to the low cat depths of her foaming and frosty head —to the disturbance of the sands from the lowest bottom of the basis which supports her—in all her movements -and I will be contented and abide her decision. C. L. G. Shipwrecks of 1853- Seldom has n year furnished as melan choly statistics of calamities by sea ns that which has recently closed. Manv of the vessels lost are steamships; and though the San Francisco, fvotn the recencv of the disaster, excites lively re gret at present, there are many others, almost forgotten, yet which have red within twelve months, that have also claimed tluir sit are of victims and tragic incidents. The number of steamships lost, either oil the open ocean or upon breakers, or destroyed by fire, is 21; of which 16 were American, 3 English, 1 Russian, 1 t A The American steamships and stioycl were the Independence, tho Tennessee, th S. S. Lewis, the Albatross, the O’ ccan Wave, the Cherokee, the Ajax, (low boat,) the Windfal l Scott, the Ilun.boUlt, the San Francisco, and the Pearl. The English steamers were the High flyer, the Duke of Sutherland, and the Marshall. The Russian steamer was named the Senikale; the name of the Hol lander is not known to us. One steamship foundered at sea, with all on board, the Marshall, from Hull, ( Eng ) bound to Hamburg, which was supposed to have capsized through stri king a ledge at midnight. With her per ished one handred and fifty souls. The wreck of seven other steamships vrie attended with the loss of a portion of passengers and crew, viz: Tire Indepen dence, lost 129; the Duke of Suthe: land 6; the Ocean Wave 2S; the Monumental City 32; the Holland steamer 102; the Shu Francisco 150; and the Pearl 18. Tire entire number of lives involved in the loss of these steamers is 615. Public sympathy is generally more warndy elicited for the loss of steamers, than for other maritime catastrophes, de stroying Bailing vessels. The majority of I casualties, however, have occurred a- * mong the latter; and the wrecking of some of them has sacrificed more than twice tho number of victims that were taken from the San Francisco. The total number of three masted ves sels which have ben lost during the year is 39; and the authenticated loss of life thereupon attendant reached 1,120. Among the most lamentable of these,(was the fate of the Nestor, in which 340 per sons were drowned; the Lady Evelyn, 264; the Annie Jane, 300; and the Stafford shire, 140. In addition, 24 barques, 12 brigs and 21 schooners, have disappeared during the year, and with them lives amounting in number to 164; and of fishing vessels, (smacks, &.<’.,) 20, with 25 lives, and much valuable cargo. [ In recapitulating the list, we find that ; the entire number of ships lost during; | the year past, including steamers, and j I Sailers, reaches 130; and with their loss j \ we have to deplore the death of 1,942 i persons.— Cornier des Hints Unis. j The Nebraska bill passed the Senate on !

At a meeting if a portion of the mem bors of the Bar of the Flint Circuit, at the February Term, 1854, of Monroe Su perior Court, the melancholy death of WM. W. ARNOLD, a member of this Bar, having been announced—Judge War • nor was called to the Chair and James M. Smith requested to act as Secretary. On motion of Col. Gibson, a committee consisting of Messrs Gibson, McCunc and Green, was appointed to draft and report to the meeting suitable resolutions. ‘1 he committee reported the following preamble and resolutions, which, on mo lion, were unanimously adopted; llow often are we reminded of the sad truth that “in the midst of life we are in death,” —“of what shadows we are and what shadows we pursue. ” Every hour we live we arc approaching nearer to the tomb—Death is the ruthless enemy of our race'■•the old and young, the high and lowly are alike its victims. AH fall before the great destroyer. The prattling infant, just emerging into life, may die before to-morrow —and that man to-day in the pride and dignity of high in tellect and robust manhood, may be stand ing ou the crumbling verge of the grave. These truths are sadly impressed upon the heart by the announcement of tire death of Wm. W. Arnold. Iu the prime of early manhood, with a finely cultivated intellect of a very high order, with a long life of happiness and usefulness spread out before him; with hut a fc.v, short days of warning, he has been hurried from our midst to his long home. William VV. Arnold was born in the county of Oglethorpe, Georgia, in the year 1822. Giving evidence of a quick aud vigo rous intellect, his parents determined to give him a polished education, and at a very early age he graduated at Yale col lege with distinction. He made choice of the law as his pro fession, and after leaving college at a very early (lay, he entered the office of the Hon. Joseph Henry Lumpkin, to prepare for tiie duties of his profession. Mr. Arnold selected Zebulon, in the comity of Pike, as his home, and continued to reside there until his death. Asa lawyer lie was learned, able and energetic; in his intercourse with his breth ren, he was modest, courteous and affable, and to him they were bound by the strong est cords. Asa citizen, Mr. Arnold was all that was agreeable, high-toned and honorable. It has been said uo man ever knew him to speak evil of any one, aud whatever he did, all who knew him, believed he thought he was right. He did not have an enemy in the coun ty of Pike, and as an evidence of the es teem in which he was held by his fellow citizens, lie was chosen as their represent ative in the legislature in October last, and while at his post serving them, con tracted the disease of which he died. In tht> social circle, our brother was pre-eminently agreeable. In that little home with his now widowed wife and orphan children, the tender feelings of his nature, for which lie was so remarkable, shone out most conspicuously. There lie lavished his purest affections and kindest offices. — In that little circle no unkind or harsh word was ever spoken, but all was peace and love. Mr. Arnold became a member of the Baptist Church at an early age, and lived a devotedly pious life, never faltering in his course, and died in the full triumphs of that faith which looks beyond the tomb. Thus has our brother been called pre maturely to his last account, and while wc mourn his death, it becomes us to bow with humility to this inscrutable decree of that Providence that was his solace and joy the hour <?f death. Resolved, i an t the members of this Bur, assembled at the Superior Court at For syth, deeply feel the loss they have sustain ed in the death of their brother Wm. W. Arnold, and now record for him their ap preciation of him as a lawyer of high at taiumeuts, and a gentleman of warm and refined feelings, whether in his private or public life, still the same warm hearted, energetic, honorable man. Resolved, That to his family and to ns, his associates, it is a matter of mournful gratulation to repeat that he was beloved and respected wherever he was known, and died in the full hope of entering a brighter and happier sphere. litsdved, That the Clerk be requested to furnish a copy of these resolutions to the family of the deceased, and that the presiding Judge of this court, be requested to have them entered upon the minutes of the court. Resolved, That these resolutions be published in the papers of the city of Grif fin and Macon. OBEDIAH WARNER, CIPm. James \l. Smith, Sec’ry. A true extract from the minutes of said court.
