We have a communication from a friend, Bigned “A Victim,” in reply to the article by “Old Soldier," which ap peared in our columns last week. While we would not do any one connected with the late unfortunate difficulties at the Institute, the least injustice, wc can not open our columns to a discussion of the circumstances that brought about such deplorable results. The article of “Old Soldier” was chiefly a reply to the editoi of the Advocate, and he alone has any claim to a hearing through our col umns. We desire to see the Institute speedily recover from the shock it has received; and heated discussions thro’ the newspapers will not change the opinion of a single reader, or hasten the healing of the wound inflicted upon its prosper ity. The Board of Trustees are the guardians into whose hands the State lias confided its destinies ; and the pub lic press is not the proper tribunal be fore which to arraign them. Editorial Correspondence. LaGrange, May 21, 1859. Interesting and tasteful in appear ance, refined and elegant in its social features, there is no more desirable town in all the South than the young city of LaG range. Located in an un dulating region, surrounded by a fine farming countiy, and abounding in pure air and water, there is nothing to de tract from its physical advantages, while its excellent society and fine schools render its social and intellectual attractions pre eminent. The sightly swells of laud on which the town is lo cated, afford many fine situations for private residences; and among these ‘I cannot forbear to notice the elegant home of B. H. Bill, Esq. It is situated on a hill, overlooking tho whole town, and sufficiently removed from the pub lic road to afford a noble park of seve ral acres, which is adorned with a na tive growth of oaks, and sown down to grass. I visited the charming residence of the Messrs. Ferrell, about a mile from the public square, and have no where seen such a rare and extensive collection of shrubbery, combined with so much taste in its arrangement. Arbors of cedars, arched and interlock ed at the top—walks arranged in the most intricate order, and yet with per fect symmetry and proportion, in short, a feast of floral beauty and ver dure, such as the hand of art has. crea ted nowhere else in our good common wealth ; and accomplished almost en tirely by the two ladies, mother and daughter, who preside over their house holds, and find time to train every shrub, aud train every hedge with their own hands, In a hot-house are several lemon trees, laden wi h luscious fruit, now full grown and ripe, and the rarest ex otics, and choicest trees and shrubs, charm the eye at every turn. 1 observ ed several circular plats, with mottoes growing in box wood. “Vanity of van ities”—"Fiat Jtfstitut”—and “God is Love,” with others, illustrate the pa tient skill and ingenuity of the fair artisties who preside over these modern Edens. There arc very many tasteful places about the city ; where much at tention is paid to flowers and shrubbery and among the number I cannot for bear to name the neat cottage of Majo J. B. Morgan, embowered in a charm ing collection of floral verdure. Th< buildings, public and private, display i high degree of taste, and I have no where seen a neater church edifice that the new Baptist church. The schools and colleges of LaG range constitute its most notable features, and they are all in a very flourishing condition. The Southern Female College, ol which H. E. Brooks is President, has about 150 pupils, and its faculty is com posed of the following persons : J. F Cox, H. C. Hooten, Prof. Johnson, Mist Denton, and Miss Stitt. The LaGrange Female College is in charge of Wm. E. Harris, President, J B. Matson, John Akers, Mrs. Judge, and Prof. Briggs, as teachers. “ Browuwood Institute ” is aflourish ing male school, In charge of its Pro prietor, Prof. Wm. Johns, who is win niDg a high reputation as an instruc tor. LaGrange High School, Henry Hodges proprietor, is also well patronized. The Fannin Institute, by L. F. Wil oox, is a mixed school, and Mr. Wilcox is noted for his skill in tcactiing elocu tion. He is very successful also as an inßtructer. Prot. Judge has an excellent Primary School. The trade of LaGrange is quite ex tensive, and is divided between about 30 stores. My young friend Poytfireas is en gaged in the grocery and commission business, and has a very heavy capital. Nile invites the attention of our mercan tfle readers, to his business through our advertising columns. Mr. Harris, whose also appears under the nrop' er bead, is growing into a large business as collecting attorney. One of the highest evidences of taste in LaGrange is the Art Gallery of Mr. Propiiett, Mr. Tomlinson, well known in Augusta as & Photographist, has a fine collection of specimens, and is kept busy with orders for first class pictures. , There is nothing new here, in con nection with Court. No criminal cases. A negro belonging to Gen. Edwards beat liis master very severely this week. He had been run away, aud his master; proposed to punish him, when he resis- i ted, severely bruising the General about j the head. Ihe Grand Jury have the matter in charge. The boy was caught on yesterday evening, atfired iu women s clothes and is in Jail. This section has been visited with co pious rains of late, and crops, though backward, are growing finely. Wheat is not as much damaged by the rust as was anticipated, and it is thought that the crop will be an average one in this soction. A. Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. Cusskta, Ala., May 20,1859. Editor of Dispatch : —Having an occa sional opportunity of reading a number of your excellent daily and weekly, I feel in duty bound, in some sort, to re munerate you by sending such news as this part of the world affords. I have recently hail some opportunity of observing the crops in this portion of Eastern Alabama. Much of the wheat is nearly ready for harvesting. The rust has not materially injured the crop. It is found on the blades only. The stalk is entirely free from it. The ears are well filled. The grain is plump. I judge the wheat to be more than an average crop in this region. the cold winds have ceased to blow, the weather is all that can be de sired. The temperature is genial. The rains are regular and sufficient. For the last month we have had, upon an aver age, a good copious rain each week.— i The cotton and corn are small for the j season, but are thriving wondevfully.— The oats have an excellent color, and are growing luxuriantly. A farmer in 1 this vicinity planted a small field of cotton on the 10th inst., immediately after a rain. It was up on the 14th, 1 and on the 17th it was run around and chopped out. It promises soon to be as lrrge as that planted six weeks ago. — ■ f Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. Sciilet County, Ga., May 21, ’69. Editor Augusta Dispatch —Dear Sir : Allow me the space in your very valua ble journal to say something in relation to the crops in the South-western por tion of our State. You will please look over the gram matical errors and blunders that I may make through the course of my letter, as I am not accustomed to writing to the public press. Our corn crops, generally, look well, considering the late spring, though some time ago they looked gloomy from the cold mornings and the bud worm. Our cotton crop looks fine—from four to eight leaves to the stalk. As for the late frost, I do not believe that it did much damage, only it cut down a good many of the “opposi tion” party, and the remainder say that they intend to support His Excel lency, Jos. E. Brown, for our next Governor. Respectfully yours, &c., M, *»••* - JIT The cars are now running with in half a mile of the Cuthbert Depot, aud will probably reach that building next Monday. All Depends on the Crop. —A subscri ber writing from Rock Island, Ills., to the Albany Knickerbocker , says: “Every appearance indicates an abundant crop this season. With out West’ are all right ; without it, ‘dead broke, sure.’ ” On last Wednesday night there was a heavy thunder Bhower in the vicinity of , West Point, Georgia, with considerable j hail. A duel was recently fought at the Bascombe Course, near Mobile, between Mr. Stitii and Mr. Vicks, of New Or leans, in which the latter was killed. The weapons were rifles. The difficulty which occasioned the duel occurred in a billiard saloon in New Orleans. Judge Vonderssiith, formerly one of the Supreme Court Judges of Pennsyl vania, has been convicted of extensive forgeries against the government for pension claims, &c., and sentenced to twenty-one years imprisonment, and a ’ fine of $5,000. f The Yankee anil lhe Dutchman'* Dog. , Abner was a quiet, peaceable sort of a Yankee, who lived the farm on which his father had lived before him, and was • generally considered a pretty cute sort s of a fellow—always ready with a trick, whenever it was of the least utility ; yet when he did play off his tricks, ’twas 1 done in such an innocent manner, that his victim could do no better than take , it all in good part. Now, it happened that one of Abner’s neighbors sold a farm to a tolerable 1 green specimen of a Dutchman. Von Vlom Schlopsh had a dog, as Dutchmen often have, and which had, leaving his ‘fader lant,’ become sufficiently civilized not only to appro- I, "P n »te the Boil as common stock, but had ptogt eased so far in the good work “ t 0 obtain his dinners from various sheepfolds on the same principal ; When Abner discovered this propen . sity in the canine department of the t Dutchman’s family, he called over to his new neighbor’s to enter complaint, which mission he accomplished in the most natural manner in the world. ‘Wal, Von, your dog’s been killing my sheep ’ ‘Ya—dat ish bad-he ish von goot dog—ya—dat ish very bad.’ ■Sartain it’s bad and you’ll have tc stop him.’ ‘Ya—dat ish alias goot—but Ich weig nicht.’ ‘What’s that you say—he was nicked ? ‘Wal, now, look here, old feller, nick in’s no use,—crop him—cut the tail close off-chock up to the trunk—that'll cure him.’ , ‘Vat ish flat V exclaimed the Dutch man, while a faint ray of intelligence crept over his features. ‘Ya dat ish gout—tint cure von sheep steal, eh ?’ ‘Sartain it will—he’ll never touch r sheep meat again ift this world.’ ‘Den come mit me--he von mity goot dog, all de way from Yarmany; Ich no \ take one five dollar—but come mit me ‘and hold his tail. Ich chop him off.’ ‘Sartain, I’ll hold his tail if you want me to, but you must cut it up close.’ ( •Ya, dat ish right. Ich make him . von goot dog. Here, Blitzen, come ! I right here, you von sheep shteal rash | kul—lch chop your tail in one two i | pieces. The dog obeyed the summons, and l the master tied his feet fore and aft, for | fear of accident, and placing the tail in the Yankee’s hand, requested him to lay it across a small block of wood. ‘Chock up,’ said Abner, as he drew the but of the tail close over the log. ‘Ya, dat ish right. Now, you ties sheep, Ich learns yon better luck;' and as he raised the axe. It descended, and as it did so, Abner, with the characteristic presence of mind, brought Blitzen’s neck over the log, and the head rolled over on the other side. ‘Wal I swow,’ said Abner, with appa rent astonishment, as he dropped the headless trunk of the dog, ‘that was a leetle too close.’ ‘Mino soul!’ exclaimed the Dutch man, ‘you shust cut him off de wrong end.’ *<•»* Editorial Life. —I here is so much of truth in the following from the pen of Captain Marryatt that we must be al lowed to quote it. But few readers ever > think of the labor and care devolving upon an editor—one who vastly feels . his responsibility. Capt. Marryatt says: “I know how a periodical will wear down one’s existence. In itself it ap s pears nothing ; the labor is not mani . test; nor is it in the labor ; it is the i continual attention it requires. Your life becomes, as it were, the publication. One day’s paper is no sooner corrected 1 and printed than on comes another. It is the stone of Sisyphus, an endless rep etition of toil, and constant weight up on the intellect and spirits, demanding all the exertion of your faculties, at the 1 same time you are compelled to the severest drudgery. To write for a pa \ per is very well, but to edit one is to condemn yourself to slavery.’’ Bishop Doane’s Successor.— The sev. enty sixth annual convention of the di oce6e of New Jersey will he held in St. Mary’s church, Burlington, on Wedncs i day, May 25. Upon this convention | will devolve the duty of electing a Dio cesan in room of the late Bishop Doane. j Spmal P°An Ordinance, to amend THE FORTIETH SECTION OF THE GENERAL ORDINANCES.— Be it ordained by the City Coun cil of Atifusta and it is hereby ordained by the au | thority of the same, That the Fortieth Section of the General Ordinances be amended as follows : 1 After the first clause in said Ordlnenees, add the i following words, “No slave, or free person of , | color shall be allowed to ride or drive about the • City on the Sabbath, except they are on their owners’ or employers’ business, having a wrlt -1 ten permission stating the same.
