Jh« cause of education is second in impor
ee only to that of religion. The first it
ine handmaid to the last. Ignorance and v ce
are closely allied. They live •nd thrive to.
getber. The absence of manta! and moral
culture, not only prevents man from enjoy
ing those ennobling pleaant and that exalt
ed degree of usefulness to which he is capa
ble of attaining, but positively degrades him
to the groveling instincts and habits of the
brute. Ignorance fills our courts with crim,
mala, our Jails with convicts, our streets with
drunkards, our council chambers with dema.
gogues, and destroys the purity, peace and
happiness of the domestic circle. As well
expect the eagle's swoop from the crawling
reptile, aa that untrained minds and uncul
tured hearts can ever fully enjoy, or will per
petuate in their purity, civil and religious
liberty.
How imporWbt, then, that our people should
bestir tberaseives in the re-organixation of
all institutions of learning. No expense is too
great, no labor too costly, no time too im
portant to be devoted to this work. During
the late war which shook the foundations of
society and broke the bands which bound the
demon vice, the cause of education was la
mentably neglected. Our schools to a great
extent wore abandoned, our colleges suspend
ed, and even the restraints and training of
the fireside were overthrown. The blasts of
war swept over the length and breadth of ite
fair fields of 'earning, withering the lovely
flowers which there bloomed in perennial
bounty and fragrance. A good . work is be
fore us, and the privilege and duty rest with
us to enter upon it with alacrity and dotermi
nation.
Our desire io to see all our schools reviv
ed, and oar glorious old Stati UsivsasnY
taking the lead. It is doubtless well known
that for nearly two years, the exercises of
this institution were suspended because all
young men were required to go into the army.
The exact cause of tbe continued suspension
we do not know, but can readily guess it is
owing to tbe destruction of its Oapitol by the
fortunes of war.
This is an old institntion.having been founded
<11785. That sure patriot andgrnrrous friend of
learning, Govkmnob Millzdok, made a donation
to the College as a suitable site for its location
of a considerable tract of land in and around
what is now tbe beantilul city ot Athens. The
legislature also appropriated large, bod les of land
aa a permanent endowment. Seeing afterwards
the difficulty the Trustees labored under in rale
Ing funds sufficient for current expenses from
tbe sale ot these last named lands, without se
riously sacrificing them, tbe State agreed to
take them back, and, in consideration for them,
to change tbe endowment to one hundred tbou
sand dollars, Investing the same for tbe college
and pledging on that Investment an anual in
come of at least SB,OOO. Tbe lands bestowed
txy Governor Milledge, were afterwards sold,
rxoepting the reservation of tbe campus grounds
and the sum ot about $40,000 realized. In
1852, Dr. Tkkbkll. an enlightened and gener
ous planter ot Hancock County, made a dona
tion to tbe University of $20,000 to endorse a
Piotesaorship of Agriculture. The Legislature
also, we think, made appropriations for some
buildings. It we are not mistaken nearly it
not all tbe sum realized from tbe sale of lands
presented by Governor Milledge, the Trustees
have been compelled to expend in the erec
tion of buildings, improvement of tbe grounds
rnd purchase of additional apparatus and ap
-11 rnces necessary to meet the increasing wants
ai the institution.
We do not pretend to tbe utmost exactness
in our estimates, though in tbe main we are
crrect. We have them as amounts received by
the College from different sources :
Held by tbe State on which she pledged 8
per cent SIOO,OOO
From sale of land given by Gov.
Milledge, 40.C00
Terrell Professorship 20,000
Appropriated by the Legislature for
buildings, say, 10.000
$170,000
Os the above it will be recollected that only
the State appropriation in lieu of the lands
first donated, and the Terrell bequest, consti
tute tbe college endowment proper, the re
maioder having been judiciously expended
in buildings and necessary outfits. As a mat
ter of history, it is proper to remark, that
many years ago, one of tbe largest buildings,
used as sleeping apartments for the students,
together with the entire Library, was con-
Burned by fire, and that tbese losses have
been entirely repaired.
Tbe question arise*, why isour old State
University still suspended 7 Wby are her
balls so quiet, h r recitation rooms so silent,
and her dormitories unoccupied? The an
swer is, because the SB,OOO pledged by the
honor of tbe State are not forthcoming. We
are aware of the chaotic condition of affairs
in Georgia. We appreciate tbe fact, that the
lute war has emptied her Treasury and crip
pled her resources for awhile. But it is a
most appropriate time to raise a voice in be
half of education. It is proper that the pub
lie mind should be thoroughly awakened on
this vital question, and that the people
through their representatives, whenever they
assemble, should deciare to tbe youth of tbe
State, wbo are famishing to drink at her ch es
fountain of learning, that tbe waters must
and shall be moved in which to wash away
tbe pollution of ignorance. Whatever the
proud Empire State of theSontb may be dere
lict in as to duty, let her never darken her
bright escutcheon with a repudiation of h<r
debt of honor to tbe alma mater of so many
of her greatest and best children. ’Twas
there the Jackson’s, the Palmers, the Steph
ens, the Toombs, the Uobbs, the Crawfords,
tbe Pierces, the Campbells, the Johnsons, tbe
Bartows, tbe Colquits, tbe Bennf’>s», the
Longstreets, the Gordons, the Dupon ’, the
Doughertys and hosts of o'her giants, have
been panoplied for their varied duties in .ife ;
and it is there that our children and our cbil
rJrep’a children wish to journey as to tbe
Me.caof their educational bops*.
PRESIDENT JOHNSON.
The Constitutional Union, in characterizing
the present as a year of jubelee, winds up ite
article in the following opinion of President
Johnson.
“ We rejoice that tbe Executive duties are
in the bands of one who has proven himself
impossible of alienation from tbe true princi.
plea of the G. V mment, and will do whatever
mortal man can towards “ a more perfect Un
ion,” to re-establish justice, insure domestic
tranquility, and promote the general welfare.
We see many of the professional men of the
Noitb, the East and tbe West, assembling at
the National Capitol, and entering upon a
new and combined pursuit, that of fleecing
the suffering and bumbled Southerners who
are petitioners for Executive pardon ; but this
meets not tbe approbation ot plain, honest
Democratic Andrew Johnson, about and con
cerning whom, all is reality and nothing
mythical, whose sign-board still stands out
couepicuouslyjn Tennessee, and bespeaks the
toil by which be earned bis daily bread.
Ever inflexible in adhering to the rights,
he is a merciful Chief Magistrate who dispen
ses justice with a benevolent hand ; a ruler
who tells his people " mercy is free,” come
ye to the altar of your country in ' a proper
spirit of penitence and loyalty and youi offen
ces shall be pardoned and all tbe penalties
thereof remitted unto you, but deal not dis—
trustingly with me, nor venture in tbe way of
sharpers who would galphiuize you and pilfer
tbe last morsel that tbe ravages ol war have
left to your tattered and starving children.—
Os such material is Andrew Johnson, present
President of the United States, and the
whole country should resound with rejoicing.
This is our year of Jubilee, with Peace tri
umphant, harvests abundant, and an honest,
strong arm at tbe helm of State. Yes, tbe
the year of Jubilee 1”
THE STATE lUiLItOAD
We learn that tbe military authorities ot
tbe Uutted States says the Macou Telegraph
have proposed to turn over to the provisional
government of tbe State, the Stale .ailruad,
with its appendages Tbe conditions upon
which tbe transfer is to be made aru liberal
and satisfactory ; and Gov. Johnson is now
eu route with a view to complete the arrange
ments aa speedily as possible This is tbe
most important public improvement in which
tbe State has an interest direct, and that it
can be operated to result, more beneficially to
the Slate, and tbe interests of tbe public gen
erally, under civil management than when
controlled by the military managers, there is
not a doubt.
Heretofore this road baa yielded to the
State an immense revenue annually, and will
do so again ; but for acme time hence this
cannot be expected. Tbe rolling Block of
tbe road ia in bad order; some oftbe bridges
are temporary structures, and all the depots,
car, and wood sheds, were destroyed by the
contending armies But tbe profits of the
road will enable these difficulties to be over
come, without taxing the public treasury, in
a reasonable time. Gov. Johnson expects to
complete arrangements for the irauster ol tbe
road Without delay.
MAIL. FACILITIES.
The Macon Telegraph says the Post Master
General has informed Gov. Johnson, “that
with a view te furnishing mail facilities at
tbe earliest practicable moment, to persons
residing at or near county seats in the Slate
of Georgia, he baa tbe honor to inform him
that tbe department, on the receipt of reason
able bids for lhe transportation, will be pre
pared to issue orders authorizing temporary
mail service I’till 81st December) on routes
running from such county seats to tbe nearest
point on railroads on which mails are cons
veyed.”
Letting of contracts on all tbe routes in
tbe Slate will be advertised for, from Ist
January 1865.
There is no excuse whatever for a much
longer stoppage of mails to all tbe principal
points in tbe State. Every county seat can
secure a regular mail, within thirty days, if
prompt action is taken. We have also beard
that bids will be considered reasonable upon
all routes, if they correspond with the figures
paid prior to the war. There should be no
delay in moving in this matter.
P.’s.—We invite attention to tbe advertise
ment of P. P. Pease, Receiving, Forwarding
and Commission Merchant, Macon, Ga.
Mr Pease is well known in this City, hav
ing long held tbe reputation of being one of
our leading merchants. We now refer our
friends in thia City, and elsewhere, to L
stand, and recommend him to a generous
share of business patronage.
fitay- A company boring for oil at Crest
line, near the head waters of Sandusky river,
Ohio, on Saturday, struck an artesian flow of
water, mingled with mineral fluids, which
rose to the height of several feet above the
surface, and has continued to flow ever since.
In consequance of tbe prevalence of
hydrophobia at Indianapolis, Mayor Coven
has issued a proclaim.! on restraining all dogs
of tbeii personal liberty for sixty days. A
number of persons have been bitten, and a
number of dogs slain on suspicion.
Louisville, says the Jonrrnl, has been
crowded with Southern merchants for a
month past, and we learn tbit more tban
double the business has been done during the
past month in Louisville tban was ever before
in Augnst.

hie diocese to take tbe constitutional oath,
or, if they cennot do so, to abandon preachS

President Johnson, to bis honor be (it
said, has taken bis stand firmly against cor
ruption. He seems to be one of the strongest
and grandest spirits of the age.
The internal revenue receiptshave
averaged a few thousand dollars over SI,OOO,
