In pursuance of that duly,-w ecalled.a Conven tion to be heLd.Jast fall, but the. pendency of an exciting political canvass, subsei;uently suggested ihe. pfopriely of postponing its ‘meeting Deeming the time propitibits for tbo good work, w.o.hnve renewed the full for a Convention, to tic held ou the eighth day ol July next nt Muriotta. Ait now Sir, periiii.l.'us most respectfully lo ink your aid arid co-opciation m this noble iiiovcmeiit. The forthcoming Census will sliow that there nro tens of thousands of adults in G.e nginpwlio cannot read or write Indeed the proportion of these, to the whole population is astounding, nhntiling', mortify ing. And yet w e vaunt much ot uur State, and justly too of her improvements. But our glory nnd our slinine ure intimately as. spciulcil. Along the iron pathway ol our Rail Roads, we encounter ilie>e unlettered citizens,* nnd find , them in crowds, in our l-'iiaipric.i and work shops. Thus through the' pencils of light, radiating from our boa-t- cd luiprovemepts, their is seen a dark hack ground, w hich must tin covered with tlm re splendent si cen ot Kduc»tion< before Geor gia rnn display ii full orbed, luminous disc, in the gnlaxy of Stales. And how- long shall this stale of things continue. 9 How long will Georgia continue to impose (lie solemnities of Oaths, upon her poor, ignorant citizens, without tin eiflort to enlighten their understandings and conscien ce'?. ilo-v long will she entliorna ignorance in the Jury lliix, upd give forth its decrees through the Billot ' Box? How long shall each iecuring Census published to the world, in n't our old Commonwealth, still linger at an i iiiucusuruhlo distance, behind the udvunc- ing civilization of tlieMge. These nre ques lions w o'rlhy of tho profound considerntioh of Statesmen, i’liil intliropists, and Patriots Compared with lliam, the more polemics of Party or tied, arc as woilliless, as the vugut ( Mtions of Socialists and Rosictucinns. It cannot have escaped vou, thill eminent Statesmen and Snvans, from tlic Old World, visiting our country, with one nccord, rank the States of the North as the model: .Stutes of tho Confederacy, became there,. Educa tion is generally dillused. Tho Common School System of those Stutes, ore the theme of their elojuent, and never ending pnnegyr- ic. Nor e.iu it itnve e.ciped .you, thut on this veiy-account, jus' hut lutmiliuling com- parisons me ecus tun tly drawn beta ecu the North nnd (lie South—comparisons which humble the otiicrwise proud crest of the South, the mure liocnuse tl n is the favoured section of the Union, upon which nature has lav i>hcd her munificent treasmes of wealth and fertile soil. Surely if Mnssnchuse'ts and Connecticut have onst the light of edu cation, all over their rocky, sterile hills; Georgin should nt once begin to spread it's liaunis ntli.wiir| l ei; fcrlilo plains, in her beau tiful valleys, nnd along the sides of her ore embeded mounluii.s. If‘Knowledge is Pow er,’ it is all pow erful and necessary tu n peo ple, who have amongst them n race, that must ha kept in subjection. Not to enlarge on this hint, if you so hold, give to us your influence and uctivo co-operation,.in the great object of mousing the public mind to the iiiiporliin.-o of Common School Education. We delight in the boast that curs is a.Re publican State, and consults “the greatest good, of tl.o greatest number.” And yet Sir, cnpipuie Georgia's iudiU'eienee on this subject, with tliu enlightened policy of Pru sin. Prusin, the defender of legilmnncy, the champion if you plc i-e of despotism, delights to make tho light of Kditc.ilion stream around the hearthstone' of her huu.htest, poorest citizens.

The vengeance of the misguided woman, we how ever regret to sny, fell with great severity upon the publisher of the pa per, Mr. Thomas S. Reynolds. The cir cumstances, so fur as we have been enabled to gather them in the heat and hurry of the moment, nre es billows : On Wednesday, afternoon (yesterdayJ about 3 o'cloek P. M , the editor of this pa per lie : ng absent from his office, a woman of light frame, with grey eyes, and black hair, about 45 years of age, emeted the office and enquired fur the proprietor, of a gentleman sitting at a table i i the reuding department. Being told that he wna absent, she went into the preis room and repeated the same euqui ry, w hen she was told that he was absent nnd would bo in the offico in tho course of an hour nnd a hall. Being still impatient fur the blood of the edi'or, she approached the desk of the publisher, nnd taking up a type nnd asking him “ure these type ?” drew pistol and shut him. The bull took efi’eci between the elbtnv and shoulder of the right inn—pnssed through the arm and entered the body and ranged nearly through it. It has been found by Iho physicians, and ex tracted. Mr. Reynold' now lies dangerous ly wounded at bis lodgings. The woman was armed with two large, rifle-bored pistols, and a large glittering bowie knife—all of which ate now lying before us Now, ns lo the pretext for the commis- -ion of this outrage. Returning to our office, we met the woman in the custody of the Town Marshall,and surrounded by a number of our citizens. In the pretence of thorn the editor enquired her reasons for the at tempt. Her answer was “that she had been published in the Southern Banner as a man dressed in woman's clothing, going about doing mischief.’ Upon being asked it she had ever rend it in tho Banner she said she hud not—th|t slip line) spnrchpd them all, new and old, hut cou|d nut find it. She said she was told hy sovernl friends that the charge was published, and she supposed it was done in nn extra, but had never seen even that. Now we assure the country that we have no recollection of pvpr making suoh a publi cation or nny thing like it, either in our pa per or in an extia from the office. The wholpstoryis a ,-liper fabrication. Now ns to the motive which prompted this attempted assassination- The woman is undoubtedly of sane mind, and oqr opinion is that she has lieen made an iutlrumenl, either knowingly or un knowingly, we cannot yet pretend lo sny which, for Ihe purpose of tak ing the life of tlre editor. If his political enemies desire his life as an atonement for the principles which he avpws, he ia'wi.ling to lay it oil' the alter of his country* The woman has been committed to the county jail under a charge of an assault with intent to murder.— SlW.Itern Banner.
