June 3 ts GEORGIA FEMALE COLLEGE. TH E exercises of this Institution will be re sumed on the first Monday in October. It is very desirable that all who propose to become pu pils, should attend at the beginning of the session. An early regular organization of the Classes is im portant to the carrying on of our plans, and to fair and equal competition among the members of each class. To relieve the Faculty of embarrassment in the distribution of circulars, and to facilitate the progress of the scholar, we earnestly recommend parents and guardians to bring their children and wards at the opening of the term. To relieve our patrons, who live distant from us, of all unnecessary anxiety, we assure them that in case of sickness, attention kind and constant shall be rendered ; and that prompt information shall be given to relatives, when any reasonable ground of apprehension exists. Having full confidence our selves in the healthiness of the location —a confi dence founded upon the experience of the last term, and the fact that the steward’s family, with two young ladies, members of the Institution, have remained during the whole summer, without inter ruption of health, webeg our friends to discredit the exaggerated rumors of sickness and fatality that Mtometimes get currency in the country. If at any facts warrant alarm, w* pledge ourselves to give notice. The Primary Department will go into opera tion simultaneously with the College. The very general satisfaction which we understand was giv en during the session under many disadvantages, cncouiages us to hope that our future efforts will be crowned with enlarged success. G. F.

To the Ladies of Georgia, and of the South gene rally, the following plan is most respectfully submitted It is hoped that it will receive their serious attention, and meet their approbation, since it is for their especial benefit that the work is projected; IN submitting the following plan, we would first call the attention of the i adics, and all those who feel interested (and who are those that do not?) in the welfare and improvement of the female sex, to the present condition of the southern press. Nearly all the publications which issue from it are engaged ii political discussions, and their columns teem with accusations, denials, abuse, and every other form of wordy warfare —carried on in lan guage frequently unlit for “cars polite,” and sel dom suited to the delicacy an I gentleness which belong so peculiarly te the female character, ()f the lew literary papers published south of the Potomac, there is not one exclusively dedicated to the LADIES! We have felt this as a want 1 which ought to be supplied-, and we propose to make an effort to do so, confiding that our eudea i vors will be crowned with success, we we can only i secure the hearty co-operation of those for whose i welfare we are about to labor —the ladies of the south. And we expect, further, that every intelli gent mind among the other sox, will view with ap ; probation, and aid in sustaining, an enterprise de signed to improve the minds of those, without whose cheering smiles and soothing companionship, life would hr dreary and this fair world a desert. Wc wish also to afford to the ladies a held for the exercise of their own talents, and for the de velopment of the resources of their minds. The lists of authors, for some few years past, have fre quently enrolled the names of females whose glo rious success has shed an additional radiance on the name of ‘Woman.” The “lords of creation” have been forced to acknowledge that the female mind is by no mean i deficient in capacity and intellec tual endowments—whilst, at the same time, it is possessed of superior delicacy and tact. Long was woman’s mind held in thraldom, long were her powers unde .rated, and forced to remain inactive or unexercised by the force of conventional a.- rangements; hut her chains are broken, and her li berty has been proclaimed. The article if Mos lem faith, that “women have no souls,” no longei cbtains among us. Let the ladies now assert their own privileges, and wc olli-r them, in our proposed work, a medium for the expression of .heir own views and sentiments, ou all that appertains, in anv degree, to the welfare and improvement of their sex. in offering the plan of a Southern Ladies’ Book, we do not intend that it shall be precisely similar to a work of like name at the north. Wc leave to our northern colemporary pictoral repre sentations oi fashion and dress, for the embellish ment of the person: be it ours to provide a garb of 1 purity, elegance, refinement and grace, for the a dormnent of the mind. All that may contribute to - form the heart, invigorate the mind, purify the af i fections,and relinc the manners, shall be our special I care, that our work may be a useful aid to the young, and fair, and beautiful, in preparing them selves for the discharge of the noble and arduous duties which devolve on woman,in her varied capa city of daughter, wife and mother. And we re peat that in the accomplishment of this high en terprise, we confidently expect the aid and support of the enlightened and judicious of both sexes.— Arrangements for regular aid will be made with several ladies whose productions have already » gained the high fame in the literary world —and several gentlemen of distinguished attainments have already been secured as contributors, from . whom scientific tracts, with notes, and observa tions on the Arts, may he expected. This depart ment of the work will receive marked attention. In short, nothing will be omitted which may tend > to give to the publication such character as will render it worthy the attention of the learned, and of those to whom it is especially dedicated— the Ladies of the South and tVest. It only remains to < btain the requisite number of subscribers—say two thousand —and if the ladies will smile upon and aid our efforts, that number will not long be wanting. Let them urge their fathers, husbands, brothers and friends, and it is soon done. dj* The work will contain sixty four royal oc tavo pages, stitched in a neat colored rover, and will ap. ear monthly. Terms— Five Dollars per annum, payable on the delivery of the first number. highly important to state that all the subscribers nrmes which may he obtained, should be forwarded by the Ist of December next.
