The Cholera While this dreadful scourge appears to lie declining iti its/avages ia most places at the North and North-west, it seems to have its fury in East Tennessee, and hcea spreading death and desolation throughout the country. The Chattfinoo ga Advertiser of the 7th instant, sny's : “It is with great sorrow that wo learn ot the raging of this fatal disease in the upper and lower portions of East Tennes see. The extreme dry. hot weather, has. no doubt, produced the result, and there is yet no prospect of rain, or any change in the weather favorable to its decrease. We have avoided to say much about the condition of health in the upper section, because of the exagerated statements set afloat to the injury of a city or communi ty ; but we have seen letters from Knox vdle, of undoubted authority, in which a most deplorable picture is given of the existing epidemic in its fatality. The cit izens are flying in all directions, and it is quite impossible to procure conveyances to cape the town—any price is demanded ••'nd given by those anxious to leave.— One letter to Dm Bell, of this city, states that six to eight cases occur daily. “In IVladisonville it is very bad, but to what extent we are nut definitely inform ed. There cau b#no doubt but that fear has very much to do with this fatal in crease of the disease; yet this statement does not help the fact at all, and we are not thus disposed to philosophize. “An uuusnul degree of heal.h remains to Chattanooga and vicinity. Situated, m we are, in the mountains, a flue breeze draws between the ridges, and does much to modify and make comfortable the air. We entertain no fears for our city, if the citizens will exercise a little care in diet. Mortality of Knoxville — The Knox ville Whig Extra, shows that the cholera raging in that eitv to an alarming ex uat We extract the following from the e me I ruling paragraph of that extra : “The picture here is one of gloom—the greatest consternation prevails. The city 5-? abftiid ned; night and day they are fly i:-iii every direction. The hotels are ch-sed. The stages come in with the mails ami return to.the country immedi- j ately. We have scarcely help enough to lay out the dead and bury them. All business lias nearly ceased. Our publish er-; have left town, and no other paper can be got out. If wc arc able, or have hands, i we will hereafter issue an extra. “Business of all kind is suspended.” Athens, and other places not mention ed in East Tennessee, have been visited by the pestilence. i : j last accounts from Knoxville, say tin* Cholera has subsided, and that the citizens were returning to their homes. fcy*Cnesurnptioii aid Spitting blond . — ; Sft the certificate >f -Mr. ‘turner H. i Gainury, f- r v any . ears proprietor of the Fanners’ Hotel.

While j allstudents entering the school willbc required to demean themselves in such a manner as Will com port with the strictest principles of gentility and morality, no student will be permitted to re main in the Institute, who manifests a disposi tion to continue in the violation of good and J wholesome discipline. The frame and constitution of human nature have not failed to convi :ce the reflecting portion of mankind, that gentle thaugd firm systems of school discipline, under the guic ance of moral suasion, have proved far supcrih ■ in correcting errors and regulating actions, to to potent rod and other means of terror; the tendon cy of which is merely to force a compliance wit requisitions whilst in sight—to superinduce thus servile dispositions, which are at total varianc with such principles of magnanimity and indee pendence as constitute the true nobility of char ; .icier. The fact that the “proper study of man- I kind, is in n,” has proved the necessity ofintrodu j cing such books as led books which discuss the i Mental and Physical Constitution of Man, hereforc Comil’s Constitution of man and ‘Mental and Physical Physiology” will be classed with the prominent text books in the Institute.— Arrangements are being made for engaging the sc: vices of a competent lady, to lake charge oi llic - tudents who may wish to lake lessons in music, drawing, painting, See. The exercises of tiic school will close with an unvarnished examination ol the pupils, of which duo notice will be given.— The building is large and airy, ami well adapted to educational purposes, the entire length of the house being prepared (or the use of the malt stu dents, and t lie ell, 50 Icct long, lor the females, each room capable of accommodating 125 students.
