Georgia Conference • Manual Saber School.’ * THE Subscriber having been appointed the Agent for the above named institution — will forthwith commence his labors, relying upon the noble generosity of an enlightened public for the success of his mission. The education of our children, next to their salvation, claims decidedly our first attention. But many parents are prevented for want of means, from bestowing upon their sons such cultivation as would render them a blessing to our common country. It is the great object of “ Labor Schools” to meet the exigency, and to place education within the reach of the most indigent, at the same time affording the sons of the opulent an opportunity to educate both rnind and body together, in doingwhich, they are prepared for the practical uses of human life, and cease to be driven asunder from the laboring classes of the community, by petty jealousies and smothered animosities. Here they will easily cultivate those corresponding sympathies which will enable them to approach each other with looks of kindness, and form a compact based upon republican equality and the interchange of mutual offices of courtesy and goodwill. Volumes might be written in favor of this plan of education which is so rap idly spreading over the land, but at present I shall suffice it to say, that so soon as 1 return from Florida, l will punctually attend as fol lows, for the purpose of enlarging on this in teresting subject, and calling upon the liberality of our citizens iu support of the noble enter prize.

PUBLISHED IN AUGUSTA, GEORGIA, * By Augustas B. jLongstreet- TO-DAY the North American Gazette changes its name, its Editor and its po litical principles. Henceforth, it will he the advocate of the doctrines contained in the Pre amble and Resolutions of the State Rights Meeting, at MdiedgevilJe, on the 13th Novem ber last. Those who are not acquainted with the Preamble and Resolutions referred to, are in formed —That they denounce, in unqualified terms, the well known Proclamation and Force Bill : They re-ussert, the principles of the Vir ginia and Kentucky Resolutions ot ’97, in their plain, obvious, and primitive .-. use, unobscured by the sophistry of modern i i-ueralists, and un impaired by the strength-wast ing refinements of hare-hearted republicans: They uphold State Sovereignty in a sensible form, anti with intel ligible attributes: .They maintain that the Gen eral Government derives its powers from a com pact between Sovereign Stales; that these powers are limited “ by the plain sense and in tention of the instrument constituting that com pact; and that in case of a deliberate, palpa ble, and dangerous exercise of other powers not granted , it is the right and duty of the State to interpose for arresting the progress of the evil within their respective limits; and that they have the right “ to judge as well of infrac tions of the Constitution, as of the mode and measure of redress. There are the principels of the State Rights’ Purty of Georgia,” the principles of Jefferson, and the principles of this gazette. We espouse them because we find them blended with all the original elements of our Government; and be cause they are admirable-in theory, and still more admirable iu practice. We depreciate their antagonist doctrins; because, their promi ses have even been —Consolidation ; and their fruits—dissentions, usurpation, injustice and op pression. Their first ten years’ reign, produced the Alien and Sedition Laws—and they fell, The last ten years’ reign, have brought the country to the verge of civil war; clothed the President with dictatorial power, exhibited his troops, on the march from Stale to State, in me nacing array— and they reign on ! In this state of things, it becomes every man who has the welfare of his country at heart, to consider what he cap do to redeem her from disgrace, and to rescue her from speedy thssolu tion. YVe believe that we cannot better direct our time and labor to this object, than by using our honest endeavors to bring back the people tliQ D Qpiikiiotuamm 1. A >y Cm* To this end, we take the State Rights’ Sen tinel incharge, and earnestly solicit the aid of all who Brink with us upou this deeply inter esting subject. As we believe there is an inseparable con nexion between virtue and happiness, vice and misery; whether considered in reference to bu dies-politic,or to individuals; it will be our cease less endervor, to impress this truth, upon the minds of the people at large, and to make it, if possible, the leading maxim of the party to which we belong. All institutions and associa tions, therefore, which have for their object the improvement of the moral condition of our fel low-citizens, will find a warm supporter in the Editor of this paper; and all well written essays, tending to the same object, shall be welcomed to our columns. The State Rights’ Sentinel shall be ai independent paper, or it shall cease to be. It will pay a blind subservience to no party; it will support the intentional errors of none ; but it will not visit the errors of individuals upon the pprty, nor desert the party, for occosionnl errors. When the party which it now advo cates, shall depart from the Jeffersonian princi ples, this gazette will depart from them. No pains will be spared to make the Senti nel instructing and interesting to all classes of readers ; through other business, of the first im portance, forbids me to promise much for a month or two to come. Our Printing materials are entirely new, and well selected, and we are well supplied with operatives : we may therefore promise a speedy and handsome execution of all Job Work which may he entrusted to us. TERMS: The State Rights’ Sentenel will be pub lished once a week ultil the Ist of February next, and twice a week afterwards—Weekly paper, three dollars per annum, if paid in ad-j vance: four if pnid at the end of the year— Semi-weekly paper, five, if paid in advance, and six if paid at the end of the year.
