I regret to see an evident attempt to injur

duty is not performed by lh.it officer. Dr.
Waddel, how: ver, 1 learn, saw prop r to de

others to perform the duty for nn. I have
not the means of as u rtaining all whom he
invited, lint iearp that tins is the true state
of the case, so far as Preside :t Ciioreli i
concerned. The tint year he preached him*
self; the second, I’r ,fi ssor Shannon, a Bap

and not being able, was asked to point out
some minister ot ins church, and lie desig
nated Rev. Mr. Few, who was written to by
the President, but never received a letter,
and the fact not being known till juut before
commencement, the President preached him
self; the fourth year, Rev. Mr. Nttifviilc, an.
Episcopal clergyman, was invited, and de
clining, Dr. Waddtl, however, the former
President, was asked and preached. Dr.
Waddel is know n to It ive invited both M tho

scutum, but they always declined.
How l.he commencements are calculated to
impress any o:ie with the belief that “ Pres

Georgia,” 1 k.io.v not,as this writer gives no
re..son.
Mr. O',in was tiio first individual of the
Methodist church, w hose name was ever of
fered to the Board as a candidate for office in
the College, lie was not, cither at bis first
or list election, opposed by a Presbyterian
°r any other.
-Mr. Shannon's claims were not “ over

guideline then elected was not a member of
tic Presbyt. rian chinch, nor was he brought
forward by the friends of the Presbyterian

Mr. Shannon was defeated.
Judge Loitgsiro t was not defe«ted hv a

Instead o! “four or, fivcPresbyiertans in

od to bring forward one instance in which
there has ever been an attempt of the kind.
The students attend either of the Churches
on the Sabbath, ami in no instance has an
officer been known to persuade, or to influ
ence, a student as to iiis religious creed, so
tar from tins, students who have In come se
rious at the College have always been at!vis
ed not to join any Church wit!.out consulting
their friends. Ti c first complaint from a
parent or guardian on this point has not been
heard. V. hai arc vve to think of a writer

i w lio are not proses-ors of religion. Now il
the Baptist or Me.bodirt dctiomination have
a right to one officer in tho College, those
who are ot no denomination have a right to
—ix at !i ast. And for whom was the College
founded? Certainly for the Stale, as a lite
rary and scientific institution. It was never
intended that it should be fortiie support ol
this or that denomination of Christians.—
And who are its Tr -tees’ Two Baptists,
one Methodist, three Presbyterians and twin
tv-one of no Church. In order to do away
tho possibility ol r. lighms je;. lousy on I lie
r>art of the several denominations, the Board
have thought il expedient to have at least one
officer from each of the principal sects in the
College. Put thev never thought of a rule of
proportion for dividing the funds among sec
tarians. They look for men of*talents, of
any name, or no n me, so fur as religion hi
concerned. Il they find a man of talents in
the Church, I believe they prefer it, because
thev are well convinced of the importance of
ri ligious influence in nn institution of this
kind. But while they are pleased with a ic
ligious influence, they would spurn with con
'tempt a sectarian influence. Can it be sup
posed that such men ns Berrien and Tump,
and AVaync and Lumpkin,- am! Hub rshaui
and Clayton, Schley, Arc. &c., vvctnJ ”cmiit
the very first attempt at sectarianism in i. [
College ? The thing is absurd, degrading
to such men—men who would in a moment
send f otn the institution the officer who
should attempt to introduce if.
F> hen then, will it lie asked, have more
Presbyterians been in the Faculty of the Col
lege than of other denominations? For the

he on so r:d in our ami srhooU.
I lie Presbyterian ministers in this conn
try, have g n. rally preferred engaging in the
business of instructing youth to that of any
o her pursuit. Ministers of other denomi
nations have s’l lotii itoou this, but have pro
ferredso.no oilier pursuit. lienee .almost ail
the ascadcmies in the southern states have
hern for the l ist fifty years under the charge
of Presbyterian uiiiiisii rs. Not because
th y are men of more talents, hut because
they have made this a profession, being ob
liged-to engage in some pursuit of a secular
u iture, while preaching the Gospel. lies
there ever been a complaint of their having
all our academies ? Do men object to send
ing their sons -to them lest they should be
“ turned from the faith of their fathers ?”
A id lias not one man with children of a ten
.lt r age, and lads before they are prepared to
reason well, a much better opportunity for
exerting an undue influence, than a professor
in college, with men of every denomination
around him, and young men of that age,
when they would spurn anv interference ot
this kind ? If the Presbyterian ministers
have made the teaching of youth their pro
fession, it is net strange that they should be
more generally preferred to others. In the
ease for instance of Judge Longstfeet, a man
or acknowledged laleuts, aod amiably; man
ners, and undoubted piety, but who has been
all his life devoted to other pursuits, is it to
he wondered at that the Board of I rustecs
should believe such men as Berdan and IVcst-
Iv, who arc also acknowledged by all vvjte
know them to be men of superior talents and
acquirements, and who have spent many
years in the business of instructing youth,
better qualified to fill offices in a liter .ry in
stitution ? It would bethought extremely
absurd for Mr. Beman or Air. 1 reslev,
to oppose such a man as Judge Longstreet
for a Judgeship, or a place in Congress.—
Not because they have not talents which
might fit them for either, but because they
have never directed their minds to the pro
fession and practice of law. And if the pro
f. —ion of »cc?r.:r,g do.s ret «•«<?!;!

TUG SOUTHERN' RECOUCPR.-
take the f< Mowing extract from the columns, of
tlie Southern Recorder. Tho illiberality exbi*
l.itiat in lt,a artin'a ia not r.lr.ul.iled to TvilliCl
mncli credit on the writer.
“Onr readers will find in onr paper to-day, the
Resolutiofcs, and Address of the CnmmiMee of
the State Kigkts Party. Tliese should h ive ap
peared in our paper of last week, bill for the ro
tnisMiess, or the intentional design, oftheUiiatr
man of the su!(.Committee, Col. Kookwkll, by
whom it was only liaq^ - i to one of tlie papers of
Ibis place:— contrary to tlie resolution in regard
to printing, as well as tlie wishes of the other
members if the Committee.”
We must acknowledge that we are not appris
ed by what authority tlte resolutions and address
should tune, appeared in the columns of the Re
corder at an earlier date. The imputation of re
missness attempted to be cast on the chairman of
Kxecutive committee will be properly under
stood when it is considered that tho ad'dress and
resolutions occupied nearly 4 or 5 closely written
shei ts of letter paper, and that llio writer did
not undergo the fatigue of copying it off for the
especial benefit of the Recorder. We cannot dis
miss this subject, without noticing a misrepre
sentation contained in the extract, which would
not have occurred “but for the remissness or in
tention.'/ design'' 1 of the writer, Tiie Recorder
says, it (we presume it means the resolutions
and address) was only handed to one ot the pa
pers of this place, contrary to the resolution in,
regard to priul<ng&c. Did the “reniissnest of the
writpr prevent him from observing that the reso
lution of tlie Central Committee directed the pub
lication of tlie report of the Executive Committee,
(to wit, the resolutions and address ) in "all the
Stale Hights papets of the Stale." Docs that
mean in the Southern Recorder? We have not
been regularly notified that there exists a 'jus di
vinum' which would make the .Southern Recor
der the exclusive vehicle of communicating the
doctrines of the Stale Rights’ Party to the peo
ple of Georgia. Was this singular construction
of the resolution the result of remissness or in
tentional design?”
THE LATEST MOVE.— We were always
'.ware that the Clark party were consummate tac
ticians. Indeed their cause now requires an ex
traordinary degree of skill, to preserve It from
total prostration: and it is net to be wondered at,
that their ingenuity is called forth in all its subt
lety. \\ e are led into llie,e remarks by observ
ing tho very adroit manner in which ilicOolmn
hus Democrat places the two tickets fur Congress
before the people. The ticket nominated by the
State Riglits party they style tho “nullifleidieit
tirket,'’ while luo ticket nominated by the “ E/iion
lltmoeruhe 10■ public ins” or as the) called tliem
•t lves then, “tint Democratic Union men," is set
forth a* the "Shill lights" TitkiH W lilt a lau
dable ( ,iitem». tho Nullification Tu lin', as tfii v
t»rm it is placed > ’ md ihoieit will «uy.
It ig amusing to üb.erve the ol' Mint
party. Within the last three numbs they have
successively worn four different appellations, and
all coined by themselves. First they were
“The Clark Party,” that name was too old and
not possess, and w iihal of the capability ol exten
sion exhibited by tlie tent in the story, at one
mi meat in a man’s pocket, and ltie next covering
an army. That appellation did lint embr-ce all
the party. They were tin;n announced as the
“ Onion Democratic Ji'j uhlieuns." Seme how
or other, this title was fated to f dlow its prede
cessor, and lie numbered w ith the ‘Las In ci,s’ of
the day. They then introduced thennelves as
the "Democratic Union men. l " Th at name is
worn out too it seems, for now they claim to be
•lie "State /lights' men ” We think they must
liava been sadly in want of a name, win n ti.ey
borrowed without leave tlie only one their adver
saries hod to wear. The Stale Rights party!—
\\ by that is the genteel dress we wear on parti
cular times, onr tSund y-g.'-10-meeling Coat: and
milliner is the coarse frieze-jacket we box about
in, on week days. We are disposed to be very
charitable, but we can hardly spare the name,
unless they take the doctrine with it.
CONGRESS.—The deposito question is still
agitating both Houses of Congress. The dis
cussion so tar has been a very warm one. Mr.
Clay's Speech in tlie .Senate is powerful in ar
gument, anil i> represented to h.ite been very
if qnfn'ly deiii. red, Mr. M'Duffie’s speech
in Ibe House of Representatives on lire same
".ncsti'Ui has elicited great approbation in Penn
sylvania. Il w.is read as h,.s been stated in the
Philadelphia papers, in one of the Coffee houses
ta a large crowd ofiliat place, and the reader w as
frequently interrupted by loud and reiterated
bursts ofapplau m. It i., iinpostihle to say when
the discussion will close. Probably il may oc
earybotii i louses fur some time yet, unless cait
short in rlrtr Representative brunch by the previ
ous question, when all debate will be precluded.
We presume the final result will be that the de
ppstics will remain where they arc. A nso! - -
!!i n to r store them cannot be passed in tiie
Houser.f Re^.reseillative*, and .f contrary to our
expectations, such a ;esolntion should pass; Mt
will not receive tha signature pf the president.
THE CREEK CONTROVERSY.—Tt is
exciting question relative to the jurisdiction of r.
sovereign State over her own territory, which hn-<
sknken Alabama to its centre, is not settled.
W e publish to day tiie rorrespondenee between
Gov. Gayle and Col. F. S. Ivey, the accredited
agent of the Federal Government. The attempt
has been or is to be made, to remove th# proceed
ings against the murderer of Owens from the .State
Courts into the Federal Court. This too under
the provisions of the Force Bill. The example
of Georgia is before Alabama. The interference
of the U. States Courts w ith the criminal juris
diction of our State was proudly set at defiance
and Tassels was hung in the very teeth of tl»e
mandate from Judge Marshall. The Tuscaloo
sa Expositor in commenting on tho correspon
dence uses the follow ing language.
“Our limits will not permit ns to comment,
as we should like to do, on the letter of Mr. Key,
and the circumstances which led to the adjust
ment of the Creek controversy. It is evident,
however, that the President was anxious to avoid
a direct collision with the .State, and thaw Mr.
Key might have been driven to the necessity of
yielding every point, had not a portion of the
Legislature, from the commencemenfof tlie ses
sion manifested a determination to embarrass the
°'>vcrnor, and, if possible, to condemn his course.
Weflrr.no! . J- st>osed to censure the federal par
ty. We believe they acted as. they thought, cor
rectly; *•:“ we are convinced that, new
‘ " ''.a Governor tiie s.ipfmrt to which be was en
titled, lu, would have acted with more firmness,
and the nrtiet w ihe trial of the soldiers
into the District Court would have been aban
doned. Who can doubt this? Had not tiie Pre
sident begun to retrace bis steps?
I*, will he recollected that, in bis letter to M lj.
M'lntosfi the Secretary enclosed a copy of the
seventh section of the force bill anil said, “am
ple provision will lie made, fir taking from Ihe
Stale 'ribunals,” the trial of tlie officers ami sol
diers ot the army. On this part of the letter the
Governor is sih it. VN ili he permit Ihe views of
tlie President, i:i this respect, to be carried into
effect? We believe not. Should ho do so, ire
shall deeply regret his opposition to any of the
orders of the President. Tlie removal of tho set
tlers would nave been a serious calamity to
them; but should a State, particularly a south
ern Stale, by sl'ent acquiescence, permit one of
tlie most obnoxious and palpably unconstitution
al provisions of tho “bill of blood,” to be enfor
ced within her limits, her character would be ir
reparably injured; and the design of the federa
lists to change our system of government, from a
confederacy of sovereign Stales, to a consolida
ted empire, would be effectually promoted. If
by resisting the act of 1807 and tlie treaty with
the Indians, her should give rise to an occasion,
at this unpropilious period, for bringing into full
operation a law, which, it was hoped, would re
main a dead letter, lie w ill incur and deserve the
unm.usured denunciations of the republican
frwuds of the Union, from Maine to Louisiana.

ITrcquircs no argument to prove that the people
of the United States are deeply interested in
maintaining, at the scat of Government of the
Uutted Slates, an able, independent, and free
press. The fact that the Globe justifies every
usurpation es tire Executive, while the Intelli
gencer vindicates all those of Congress, is ex
plained by this other fact, that while tlie Uxi e
utive, thtongh tire departments, bestows on the
Globe a patronage which gives a profit of fifti cn
thousand dollars per annum, and Congres* gives
the intelligencer a much larger profit upon the
public printing ; rhe patronage of the reading
public, fills fir short of the expenses of publica
tion. The prtss at Washington has been false
to the people, became the people never have
made it the inti rest id its conductors to vindicate
their rights. The subscription to no paper pub
lished there, lias ever yet paid the expenses rs
publication—and the reason is, that there are but
few, advertisements, and as the population t
small,and gre..tiy under the Executive influence
tU* focal subscription is consequently RmnJf.
'i'he expense of collecting distant subscription is
so great, and a large portion of subscribers are
so negligent, that a circulation which would ant
ply remunerate the expense of publication
lined to a small district, tails far »' „ r j of doin ■
so when scattered over the wH„|. united St.,-cl
ihe election of-Mr. Aaama by the House of
Representative*, arouglrt both the Executive and
Conflict with popular sentiment, and
the Iclcgriph was established to vindicate the
Viola* u ,ights of the people. That struggle
nreughlinto office a I’resideut and u ( bnigre>s,
who united in bestowing tneir patronage upon the
press which the people hail established; hut
when tne President resolved to usurp in his own
person, the Legislative us well as the Executive
powers, theT. jeorjjih resisted and exposed Iris
usurpation and bad laitb, as well as the usurpa
tion atrd oppression of Congress; llie consequence
was an entire loss of lire Executive patrolmen,
and also that o| the House ot Keproneutalives.
