(IS, of South Caroltua, a tri
weekly paper, ^called 'l
THE EXAMINER.
The editor is fully sensible ofthe.dilfictilty and
responsibility, Wi'icblat all times-pVeseiit them
selves, in an undertaking of this kiti’l; and more
particularly since the introduction of a new polit
ical heresy.
■ The Editor is. moreover, aware of the turmoil
and perplexity of the vocation lie is about to as
sume ; but he feels as every patriot should feel,
when he perceives the approaching danger of a
dissolution of the Union,, and the destruction of
the free institutions of thii great Republic, that it
is his duty to vindicate and sustain- the rights of
the people, -and expose to public gaze the intri
gues aud duplicity of selfish and designing inch.
The editor will support the present admiuistra-
ion. lie is personally and politically tbe friend
of the Chief Magistrate. Ho believes no man,
except Get!. Washington, ever pbksessed . in so
great a degree the confidence of the American
people, and surely no man ever better desttved it.
The eminent difficulty, at this time, to hs&rfain
tho political tenets of certain, aspirants, in rela
tion to many great national questions, renders it
necessary that the Editor should here remark,
that he holds the doctrines of the late Proclama
tion of the Fresuleut of the United States'lo he
strictly orthodox, and such as were entertained
and inculcated by tho immortal Wnthiuglou. On
these docrriucs will depend the future dcstiuy of
this great Confederacy.
Tiie ExAitiNF.r. will be open to a full, fearless,
hut decorous discussion of all matters relating t<t
the affairs of the nation, the public couduct of
public men, am! the exposition of every inal-prac-
ticc iu office.
On the question of the Bank the Editor has
reflected much; and as he is not indebted to that
institutiou'for loans, or any other favor, he will
he pardoned when lie states that it is his .opinion
the fiscal relations of the Government and Coun
try requiro a Bank of some sort; bnt whether
the prcseut’bc the best, or whether it should bo
modified, -.'-'ill be the subject of future discussion.
As regards the question of domestic industry,
the Editor can with much sincerity declare, that
bo believes nothing tends more to improve, adorn
and enrich the couutry, lhau the laudable exertiou
of our manufacturers. ,
The skill, tbe capital, and uutiriog enterprise
which arc now employed in the elaboration of
the various productions of the soil, will, at no ve
ry distant period, make us one of tlio most flour
ishing and independent nations on earth. ■,
Nature appears to have bestowed upon" us
what she has refused to every other people; a
countryemhraciug all the variety of climate'aud
soil, aud yielding alf the'various productions of
the earth, tiecessaiy to the edrifort of man.
The Examiner will bo published three times a.
week at five dollars per nnum.

GEORGIA ACADEMICIAN,
SOUTERN JOURNAL OF EDUCATION,
To he devoted to tho interest of Education, in
our own Stato particularly, aud adapted to
the wants of families ami communities,
By ROBERT C. BROWN, of 'Seofisboraugh.
FBIHE E ditor is of opinion that philosophical
JL* -Education, as it is generally cqjn'acted in
our Universities and Academies, is loo much
confined to tho communication of knowledge,
au(l that too little atteutiou is bestowed onj the
101711011011 of the intellectual habits of judging,
reasoning, and communication, b3 - which ajouo
the prosecution of science, after leaving school
or college, and the business of active life eau be
successfully pursued. It is, therefore, his de
sign to conduct this 1 work in reference to thp
analysis of the human mind, andj to endeavor to
Mrbe grand object of fitting our sous and
daughters for practical life.
Thehs being no work of the kind m the South
ern country, it is taken for granted, that no one
will question the propriety of endeavoring to
establish an organ of- good, so much needed.—
Wc r aA.pt the sentiments of no party; we arc
plddgw to no society, tior is -it bur wish to dic
tate as to any mode, nr course,‘ to be pui-sued in
general or particular instruction. Our aims
shall be, to open the aveutics of thought on this
important subject; and, by our ellorts, endeavor
to blcVs'lhe’couiitry of our adoption, the laud of
our children,'the home that we loved- .
At a lime when manual-labor schVdk?and other
respectable institutions are rising around us, it
is reasonable to expect, that some mode of com
munication, with regard to tho success or failure
of any attempts i is very desirable.’ Teachers
need a periodical wherein they may express
their views, and from which the^may-learn the
views, of others, and gather encouragement and
guidance in the arduous task of instruction. . It
is our design, to collect information from every
source, and make our paper an organ of romron-
uicatjbu between distant teachers and the friends
of edrVcntiim : iu general.
Perhajis,' at no period of our history, could
there be h’ greater call for correct views on
school-books aud nparatus,, necessary to facili
tate the progress of the pupil. We will, there
fore, endeavor to supply our columns with re
spectable reviews of manual^ and information
with regard to all the machinery of education.
That our paper may Interest every thiuking j
man, and bo an inmate of the family circle, will'

calculated to interest the Planter, the Teacher,
Mother, Father, Guardian-apd Student.
Disputed.points, iu Politics or Religion, shall
he entirely excluded; nor is the Academician
ever to bo the vehicle of malevolent insinuations
or ungenerous aspersions. It shall be the con
stant :iiin of tlie Editor, to unite all conflicting
interests aud views, in the noble object of train
ing children in the ways of wisdom; and. diffus
ing a taste for literature, the arts aud rcienccs,
which ever tend to make a happy aud enlighten
ed people.
Advertisements of Teachers, Schools, and
Rooks, will be inserted at the usual ralps, but
this class of advertisements only; as it i*.intend
ed to make the Academician subserve the pur
poses of education and general information.
The paper will be published semi-motltbly,
at Three Dollars per annum, payable in.= ad

type, on the plan of the American Farmer—
twenty ‘four numbers making a volume; which

THE OCEAN.
I’ve been bn Continents and Isles.
VV ben War and Peace dwelt there ;
AujHinudered o’er the ruined Piles,
And breath’d tjltir perfumed air—
But where a sceiio so wildly grand.
So boundless, or so free,
As ; ivhere in distance sinks the land—
The Ocean still for me !
The gilded halls of Kings I’ve trod,
And mingled midst their crowd,
I’ve wandered where Alhambra stood,
The beautiful! the proud 1—
But not for me-are scenes like these,
Nor valley, brook, nor tree ;
The sea toss’d bark, the'wave, the breeze—
The Ocean still for me !
I've rambled over field and fern,
O’er mountain, vale, aud wood ;
And hunted ’midst the wildest glen,
And woo'd its solitude—
But give uie still, tny ocean home,
And ever merry sea ;
Contented ever there I’d roam—
The Ocean still for me !
I’ve been where Earthquakes shook the pole,
' Upon the trembling laud ;
Seen mountains from their bases roll,
And Cities crushed to sand—
As others will, I love ihe wave,
A lid its wild revelry ;
Home of the daring aud the brave—
The Ocean still forme!

and I don’t wed,

LOVES OF BETSEY>BUCKWHEAT
AND SIMON SPARROWGKASS.
Whcu Dr. Darwin ruled tho taste of folks with
rod despotic;
He sung the Jove of all the plants, both native
and exotic;
I moan to say, he thought he did, but he forgot,
alas!
The loves of Betsey Buckwheat, and one Simon
Sparrow-grass.
A culinary maid was she, and he a man herba-

“Oh ! lauk d daisy,” he exclaimed, and she, “my
good} gracious."'
IIG -took his .hicad and cheese with her, also a
little $hrubj
And'after killing caterpillars, swallowed down
his grub.
This Simoii he was very thin, though thick with
Bet, by gosh,
For he was-like a parsuip long, and she a sum
mer squash :
lie called her his sweet sugar pea—dwarf, mar
rowfat; I ween—.
For love had in his head and heart —his poll and
kidtteybtcn.
His jacket sowed in patches, wasn’t worth a sin-
'gle.shiiliug,
Ilis pantaloons were full of holes—of course
were made of drilling.
He said he looked like scurvy-grass, aud it was
most distressing.
Said she “you kuow 1 think a goose is nothing
without dressing.”
The forcing system she pursued, was, from the
house to scold him :
It proved a hot-house, for she made the house too
hot to hold him.
For Betsey planted lots of Box around his crani-
uin’s Jedge,
But though lie did dislike his Bet, it was too lato
to hedge.
His \\ aspish Bee, he then fomid out, was' but a
mere hum-Bug,
For daily to her jugular, she joined another jug.
Her hands would gather in his crop—for she
would tear his hair ;
Aud the nature of the Crab, was grafted, on this
kitchen pair.

She starved Inin, though his long lean limbs, did

Ono day she knocked him down, and ran, in

She was an Offset out of doors—he on tbe

So he fell sick, to think no iuuior Sparrowgrass
should ho ;
A little heir he thought to fee!—a Son flower to
see.
The Faculty could not restore, his faculties to
try’em;
It is not strange that he soon died—he physic

But as all liquors from the Common, now are
banished quite—
Each 'lectiou day,her ghost appears, and laugh
to think—God rot her—
That she’s the only Spirit there, allowed to mix

AN ADVENTURE.
[Translated moat tiie French']
The clock of Notre Dame was just tolling mid
night. 1 was hastening home lo my Hotel in the
Suburb St- pennaine, when 1 crossed tho Point
Neuf, ahorse, driven rapidly in a gig, stumbled
and fell. Sparks of fire flew in alt directions,
from the violence of the fall, and a scream of a-
larm in a funale voice issued from the interior of
the carriage, i hastened to yield my assistance,
and arrived very seasonably, for the driver reck
less of every ikiug else, had rushed to his h ( -c’s
head, aud vaiiily endeavored to get!;the animal,
which was dangerously hurt, upou his legs again.
The lady had fainted, I took her out iu my
arms, aiid seated her on the side-walk. As fear
had been the principal cause of her swooning, and
iu a sweet aud trembling voice, she thanked mo
for the kindness I had shewn her. “You will per
mit rne Madame,” said T, “to complete the good
work begun by so happy a cbauco: you certain
ly will not refuse me the pleasure of seeing you
safely lionte.”
“I am sorry to give you so much trouble. Sir;
but I accept y our invitation thankfully: my a-
bode is not far from this: I shall not detain
you a ruomeut.”
Thp driver received a five franc piece from tho
lady’s baud; she comforted him as well as she
could, aud we directed our course to Seine
Street.
“What number Madame?"
“Foriy.”
Wc were there iu a few minutes. i
T was retiring- “Not yet,’’ said the lady, “you
must not refuse some slight refreshment.
There was so much kindness in these few
words that I could not refrain accepting the invi
tation : more particularly as the stranger was
very beautiful. Wc therefore entered; an old
servant openiug the door.
“I shall treat you without ceremony - Sir, aud
receive you iu my bed-room, it is absolutely too
cold iu the parlor.”
Notv I never enter a bed-rcotn, especially a
youug lady’s, without dclighful emotions. I al
ways identify myself with divinity when so near
its altar; and consequently the sight of a fine bed,
tiie mysteries of which set my imagination at
work, goes right to my heart.
Refreshments were served up : tho lady ami
myself seated ourselves at a marble tabic. Tho
conversation of course turned upon the accident
to which she had so nearly fallen a victim.
“Do you feel any pain Madame asked I.
“Not the slightest Sir Fright made me faint,
but I am now perfectly well.”
