ted with the college, and how many volumes does each
afford to this aggregate of books ? And again, in this
Library—or more strictly speaking, these Libraries—how
many duplicates are there? Will “H.” answer? In
deed, if we merely count the volumes of the different
works, we would find that the size of this Library would
be smaller than is generally supposed ; and if we would
subtract from the remainder, the books belonging to the
three or lour societies, old Yale would boast ol a Library
not much larger than that of Franklin. But perhaps this
does not sufficu. Let us again refer to the statistics given
in the American Almanac for 1853. There we tind, that,
“in the New-England and middle States”—of the thirty
five colleges, twenty-eight * have smaller Libraries than
ours!—ana of the one hundred and nineteen colleges in
the United States, owe hundred and seven of them have
smaller Libraries than ours! To satisfy curiosity, we will
name a lew of those in New-England and the middle States,
which have smaller Libraries than the University of Geor
gia, viz., Waterville, Univeieity of Vermont, Middlebury,
Norwich Univer Williams, Trinity, Columbia, Union,
Hamilton, University ol New-York, university of Penn.’
Jefferson, Washington, Delaware, &c. &c. *‘H” is quite
mistaken about the advantages here afforded, in the de
partments of Chemistry and Natural Philosophy. They
are equal, if not superior to those afforded by any other In
stitution in the South, and very little, if at all inferior to
those enjoy‘-u at Northern colleges. Tho Apparatus is not
deplorably deficient, but on the contrary, is very complete
far better, we are told by men of science, who have exam
ined, than what they have at Yale. The instruments were
purchased some twenty years since in Europe, by Dr. Hen
ry Jackson, then Charge to France, and Professor elect of
the college. He had lull authority to get whatever he
thought proper, let it cost what it might, and on his return,
he said “he had got everything he_ wanted.” At that time,
it was a perfect selection, of the finest material and nicest
workmanship. Since then, the Prolessors have been allow
ed to order everything they desired, without the slightest
restriction. And from time to time, such additions have
been made as have been deemed by these “cramped
rnen of science” to be necessary. “HV survev of
these departments was entirely too hurried and slight,
mid he hue done himself little credit in raying what
he has. The Professor to whose courtesy ‘ acknowl
edges himself indebted, informs us that . • scarcely had
a chance to show anything before “H.” left the room.
His stay was not more than ten minutes, a.id Prof.
LeConte in that time, had not ai opportunity to exhibit
half the Apparatus, much less to explain their uses!
By the way, the latter seemed quite necessary, as we art
told, the “New-England and middle .States” man did not
positively know the difference between a common mirror
and a Ileliostat! He is indeed, a fit person to pronounce
any Apparatus “deplorably deficient,” after examining it
but ten minutes. If he did but know it, those cases con
tained instruments three tiers deep—and in order to under
stand all about them, it would require an examination of
several hours, for as complete and perfect and fine a set,
will not, we think, be found any where else in this country,
unless at West Point.
“The lecture rooms,” says the letter, “are mean,narrow,
roimh establishments, that would disgrace a respectable
backwoods school house.” This is a mere assertion, a
false assumption ; for “H.” went into but one, that the ap
paratus room, and remained in it only ten minutes. We
do advocate the establishment of a seperaie building for
recitation and lecture rooms, but not because those we
have are what they are described to be above. It might
be advisable, for the benefit of those who measure the val
ue of Philosophical instruments by the area they occupy,
to make the apparatus room three or four times larger
than it is at present. Then we might enjoy “unmitigated
panegyrics” even from “IPs.” candid pen !
“Again, there is not the first element of a University.—
Many a respectable academy in the New England and Mid
dle States, afford advantages equal to the University of
the State of Georgia .” This bit of information will be
fully appreciated, after reading what we have a Ire a dy said
about the most of the colleges of these States. Their “re
spectable academies” must afford advantages superior to
anything enjoyed at many of their Colleges and Universi
ties. We have never been more than a degree north of
this place, and cannot therefore speak from personal
knowledge, of the way things are managed “up norrid.”
hut we we have seen people who have been “put clear
through”—beheld the elephant in his most graceful at
titudes—and rubbed their backs against Yale as well as
“H.” though it may not be as generally known! And they
say things arc not so awfully much better up ther#! In
our College the same course of study is pursued, as that
adopted by similar Institutions in our country with the ad
vantage over many, of including also instructions in
the French, Spanish and German languages. We acknowl
edge this is not properly speaking, a University. Had the
provisions of the original charter, which gave n the name,
been carried into effect, it would have been a University
far superior to anything in the United States. We agree,
that the support afforded by the State is pitiful, and .foould
he trebled 1t necessary. The State is able to do more, and
the time has come when it should be done. All that is
necessary is, to carry into operation the glorious plan pro
posed by the patriotic Legistors of 1785, and there will be no
cause for complaint afterwards. At the same time that we
acknowledge our College is not what it might be, we are
proud ol’ what it is and congratulate the State on possess
ing so fine an Institution, so richly deserving support.
If“H” would wield his ready pen, in adrocating the claims
of the Colloge upon the State for aid and patronage ; in
showing in their proper light, the actions of those who
have exerted themselves to injure and defame her : in arou
sing the people to a sense of their duty to their State In
stitution ; and in endeavoring to have established here, all
the elements of a University, he would perform a patriotic
service ; and Franklin’s sons would ever love to honor him,
whose boldness in exposing the rottenness of Yale would j
lie equalled only by his magnanimity in avowing and de
fending the rights of their Alma Mater.

Hack your Judgment.
Some of the Whia presses and Whigs are boasting 1
of Jenkin’s strength in the Cherokee counties, and giv
ing Johnson a small majority in a few only. Now
there are 15 Cherokee counties—Paulding, Floyd,
Chattooga, Walker, Dado, Murray, Whitfield, Gordon,
Cass, Cobb, Forsyth, Lumpkin, Union, Gilmer and
Cherokee—and I will offer the following bets • ‘First,
SIOO that Johnson gets a majority of the above counties.
SSO on nine, SSO oil ten, and SSO on eleven counties. !
SSO to SIOO on twelve counties. SIOO on a majority of j
the votes in the above counties. $lO on a hundred !
votes, and $!0 on each, to fifteen hundred. They also ;
say that Jenkins will in many counties get a better vote
than Cobb received. Cobb received a majority in \
nearly four-fifths of the counties, say at least 75 counties, j
1 will bet SSO that Jenkins’ majorities will not exceed
Cobb’s in forty counties. SSO on twenty counties, and
SSO on ten counties.
Any of Mr. Jenkins’ friends, who have no religious
scruples, (and 1 have none except when bad bets are
offered,) can get the above bets. I will add SIOO, that
Johnson gets twice its large a majority in someone j
Cherokee county, as Jenkins gets in any.

Sentence of a Judge.
The Iton. Jacob f'linn, Judge of one of the 1
courts in Cincinnati, was tried in the Police
Court there on the sth inst., and convicted of !
assault and battery upon the person of Mr. John
Jolifte. It appeared in evidence that the Judge j
knogked the complainant down, and struck him i
several times while he was on the ground. The |
police justice, before passing sentence, asked
the prisoner what he had to say. .Judge l’linn
replied :
“l have very little to say. It is very true these
things were done in open day; there was no j
advantage taken ol the party, as was evidenced \
by the fact that I struck him with my open j
hand.
“The Court is not in possession of the details.
I think in this case there is a view of self-presev
ation that opperates on the mind of every man, !
and I believe, in their Christian age, he may sub
mit to outrage upon outrage, until submission !
becomes allied to disgrace. It is said that the
last grain of sand broke the camel’s back. I ;
have submitted until it seemed to me that attacks
were made upon me by the scullions on the
streets. I hope that while this arm has strength
I will ever be able to defend my character and
my family. I was driven to desperation. These
are the tacts—other considerations of a domestic
character, which cannot be mentioned here,
influence me. If I have infringed upon the law,
and broken it, 1 am willing to meet the penalty.
[He spoke this with much feeling, and sat down
sobbing audibly. As he took his seat the crowd
outside the bar applauded him loudly.]”
He was then fined -S3O and costs, upon pay
ment ot which he was discharged. Judge Flinn’s
decision in fugitive slave cases have rendered
him oimoxioous to the abolitionists in Cincinnati,
and he appears to be persecuted in every possi
ble way.

Tribute of Respect.
Columbus Guards’ Armory, Sept. 19, 1851.
At a called meeting of the Columbus Guards a Commit
tee was appointed for the purpose ot drafting suitable rea
olutions, expressive of their regret at the death of Geo. S.
Carey, whereupon the following Preamble and Resolu
tions were unanimously adopted:
Soldiers: The mournful duty has devolved upon us of
consigning to the cold grave, the body of our deceased
friena and fellow soldier Geo. S. Carey. It is mete that
” e should bow in humble submission to the will of Provi
dence, in thus depriving us of the society of one so much
beloved, so endeared to us by the ties ol friendship.—
Though we may not recall him to our midst, yet the grat
ification is ours of adding a slight testimonial to his manly
worth, and soldierly bearing while among us. To this
end be it therefore.
Resolved, That in the death of Geo. S. Carey the Col
umbus Guards have lost a soldier ever efficient when duty
called; vigilant, active aud prompt, he commanded the ap
probation ot his officers, and won by his excellencies ot
character the respect and esteem of his comrades.
Resolved , That our community has lost in the person
of our companion an estimable citizen, and the Church
one of the purest of her membership.
Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with his afflicted
family in this., their hour of sorrow, and freely mingle with
them the tear ot sympathy.
Resolved, Thai: m token of our regard tor his memory, we
wear the usual badge ol mourning, and that a copy ot these
resolutions be forwarded to his family, and the city papers
be requested to publish the same.

From Bishop Elliott’s Annual Address.
“W ith the consent of the Board of Trustees, I placed the ;
Institute under the charge of a lady well tried, and well (
known, Miss M. M. Buell, and invited the Rev. Ruins M.
White, who bad just at that moment resigned the charge :
of St. John’s Curch, to accept tlu* Rectorship of the Ineti- j
tute. These appointments, together with the continuance j
ot the Rev. Mr. Bragg at the Institute, should give parents 1
every confidence, that such as the school has heretofore
been,such it will be hereafter. I commend it most heartily j
to the Diocese, assuring it that the School has never been |
in finer condition, and praying it to use every exertion not i
to permit an institution to go down, which has been built j
up at the expense of so much sacrifice, and suffering.”

THE undersigned would respectfully announce to their friends of Columbus, and to the public
j generally, that having purchased the entire interest of Messrs. Gksxek & Peabody in the
I store well known as the BLUE DRUG STORE, will continue the business under the name
i and style as above.
I 1 his intimate connection with and close application to the business for several vears, which
has given them much practical experience—united with a determination to be close and vigilant
as well as prompt and active in their attention to its duties and requirements—will, they hope, be
a sufficient guarantee to the public oi their efficiency in the business, and that it will be properly
conducted. Determined to deal iu none hut WARRANTABLE ARTICLES, they hope by
such means to merit and receive a liberal share of public patronage.
1 hysicians and Merchant dealers doing business in the country, will find it greatly to their in
i forest to call and examine their ample stock before purchasing elsewhere; for,in addition to fresh
! and well selected articles, they offer inducements in prices, which they are confident will prove
pc rfectly satisfactory.
I in their extensive arrangements for the proper advancement of the business, thev have not been
i un, |*"idtulot what would be to the interest and convenience of the City Physicians, but, in view of
i tlielr accommodation and for their especial benefit, have fitted up and neatly arranged a room—
■ with all necessary apparatus attached—to be devoted exclusively to Chemical and Pharmaceutical
j operations. • In this effort of theirs to relieve them of the trouble and vexation to which thev have
I been so long subjected, in preparing their own prescriptions, or in having them properly attended
1 to, they think they ought and believe they will sustain them.
s lsotl ’ or either of them will be present at all times (except from 10 o’clock A. M. until 2 o’clock
P 0,1 Sundays) to attend carefully and promptly to this department of the business—and iu
no instance will any hut known extra Medicines be used in the preparation of prescriptions.

OR MEDICATED COMPOUND,
For Beautifying, Carling , Preserving, Restoring and
Strengthening the Hair. Relieving Diseases of
the Skin, Curing Rheumatic Pains, and
Healing External Wounds.
Denuded by no ideographical lines, the reputation of Barry’s
> Tricopherous pervades the Union. The sales of the arti
j cle of late years have increased in a ratio that almost exceeds
j belief. Professor Barry, after a careful examination of his sale?”
! book, finds that the number of bottles delivered to order, in
quantities of from a half gross upward, during the vear 1852.
wa- within a trifle of 050,000.
1 It is unnecessary to present at length the evidence of the won
i derful properties ot the Tricopherous, when the public have fur
nished such an endorsement as this. The cheapness of the article
■ and the explanations given of its chemical action upon the hair,
I the scalp, and in u!I cases of superficial irritation, first recom
: mended it to the attention of the people. This was all that the
inventor desired. Every bottle advertised itsell. The effects of
; the fluid exceeded expectation. It acted like a charm. The
j ladles would not be without it. Country deulears in every sec
-1 tion of the United States found they must have it ; and thus
: was built up a wholesale trade of an extent hitherto unheard of
: as regards articles of this kind. The highest point has not yet
; been reached, and it is believed the sales this year will be a

The Greatest Discovery of the Age.
Planters, Farmers, Families and oltu rs, can purchase no reme
dy equal to Dr. Tobias’ Venetian Liniment, for D; sentery. Colic,
Croup, Chronic, Rheumatism. Quinsey, Sore Throat, Toothache, •
Sea Sickness, Cuts, Burns, .Swellings, Old Sores, Musqulto Bite*, 1
Insect Stings, Pains in the Limbs, Chest, Back, 4ce. If it does
not give relief the money will be refunded, all that is asked,is a
trial, and use it according to the directions. This article is an
English remedy, and was used by William the Fourth , King of
England, aud certified to by him, as a cure for Rheumatism,
when every thing else recommended by his physicians has failed.
Over 10,000.000 of bottles have been sold in the United States,
without a single failure, and families have stated, that if it was
$lO per bolile, they never would be without it, in ease of croup, j
as it is as certain as it is applied. It cutes toothache in three
j minutes ; headache in half an hour, and cholera when first taken. |
! in a few hours. It is perfectly innocent Jo take internally, and
1 has the recommendation of in any of the most eminent Physicians 1
in the United States. Price 25 and 50 cents.
Dr. Tobias has also put up a Liniment for Horses, in pint :
bottles, which is warranted--cheaper and better than any other,
, for the cure of colic, galls, swellings, old shores, cuts, bruises,
j scratches, cracked heel, Ac. Price 50 cents.
Dr. Tobias could fill a dozen newspapers with the certificates
and letters received, relating to the wonderful cures accomplish
ed by his Liniment, but considers that warranting if, sufficient,
as any person who does not obtain relief, need not pay for it.
There ha* been so much worthless medicine sold to the public,
that Dr. Tobias wishes his article to rest on its own merits —and
if hi* gives the value of the money received, then he asks the
patronage ofthe public, not otherwise.
