I STILL LIVE.
It is with heart-felt grief that I am now call
ed upon to record the departure of my bosom
friend and companion of my earliest childhood. ’
All that was once earthly of Phillnpl’liillpot A.
S. 1.. L. D. has merged itself into a Knight.
We did not have the sad pleasure of hearing '
fall from his lips the “big drops of eloquence,” '
recorded in his last farewell, but we are eredi- |
bly informed that he was surrounded by the
‘•Knights of the Screw," a gallant band ofi
compatriots whose gathering together betokens
an auspicious day for youthful historians ami I
aspiring lairds.
A brief sketch ot the departed may be pre- I
seated without. 1 hope, trespassing upon the i
patience of the reader. I’hillpot was, in early ;
y outli. quite a small boy, and strange to
say, never attained the are of majority
until he arrived at his twenty first year.— I
He was a graduate of the Macon Xt<nin Mill, an
institution of learning which has produced j
«<)»«• of the best American scholars of the age. \
Graduating with the highe-t honors ofhisclass.
he at onee assumed the arduous duties of his *
profession, ami pursuing the “even tenor of his
way.” slew with impunity the mtgod'y mul
titude. But literature invited him into 'ts :
tlowery paths, ami many a fair lady was wreath
ed in smiles its he she 1 forth the sparkling scin
tillations of his genius, in sublime poetry or
touching prose, and here it may not be im
proper to record the last tracing of his potent
pen, —the lines so beautiful and touching ded
icated to his atiiauced bride—Miss (Tin O.
Line.
Tell me ye winged winds.
That round my pathway roar.
Do ye not know some quiet spot
Where hoops are w orn no more ?
Some lone and silent dell.
Some island or some eave,
Where women can walk three abreast
Along the village pave ?
The loud winds hissed around my face.
Ami snickering answered—“ nary place.”
Os tlieprogenitors of I’hillpot, history fails to
furnish an authentic account, yet it is believed
by sonic, that they were “the last of the Mohe
gans,” a cnnclare of Moul* that resided in the
city of Atlanta, and were closely allied to the
Monk-eys, which latter family are in ’great
nbundanee at the present time. Fond of ad
venture lie with a handful of brave companions,
fitted out an expedition ami chartered at an
immense expense an ox cart, for the purpose
of exploring Cotton Avenue. He made sever
al very valuable discoveries, but aucr painful
investigation was totally unable to distinguish
the difference between Camphene and Gin, a
fact greatly to be regretted by the inhabitants
of that unfortunate country.
But I’hillpot is gone! Yesterday lie was
among us blooming in health and manly beau
ty. To-day we see him liveried in all the tin
seling of a Knight—his face wan, his cheeks
sunken and his eye robbed of its every lustre.
Under these most lamentable circumstances,
and deploring the deprivation of a dear and
much valued friend, once more do I confident
ly launch my bark upon the vast ocean of
newspaper literature, and in a few days I shall
commence the publication of n series of se'ect
ed “sketches” from
THE XIVSTEBIES AXl> MISERIES OF MACON;
and while so doing shall be ready to encounter
every gale and tempest, yet I shall hope to be
wafted gently and tranquilly along by the soft
breath of commendation, and cheered by the
smiles of appreciating friends.

Macon. January 12, 1858.
[From the Charleston Mercury.]
THE SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY.
We append some very sensible remarks from
tlie Southern Citizen, in regard to the’objec
tions to Sewanee, the site selected by the
Board of Bishops for this great sectional enter
prise. It isa matter of grave importance totlie
Southern public, and wo do not hesitate in ex
pressing our own opinions, while concurring
fully with those below. Sew anee, Tennessee,
was chosen by a bare majority over Huntsville,
Alabama. Knoxville, Chattanooga and Ma
rietta were also urged. To our minds, Hunts
ville is much the most eligible, and for many
strong reasons. In the first place, if this is to
be a great sectional institution, indentified with
the institutions and civilization of the Sontb,
then, we think, it should be located in the
heart of the South —in a State where slavery
is indispensable from soil, climate and produc
tions, and where the taint of free-soil senti
ments and influence cannot possibly reach.
In the second place, it should be in a healthy
country, free from al! tendencies to disease.
It should also be planted whore good whole
some social influences would be exercised.—
And, lastly, it should be located on a great
highway between the East and the West, and not
ott’on an obscure road. Huntsville fulfills all
these important requisitions, and, we trust,
will yet be the site fixed upon. In aquestionof
such magnitude, not even State pride, in the
origination of the project, should have weight.
The condition of the South in the Union re
quires that a great Southern University should
be in a cotton-growing State, and not in a State
near the borders, and where adverse influences
are not excluded.
THE SOL'TIIRIIN UNIVERSITY—ITS LOCATION.
The Idtation (Sewanee, as it is termed) se
lected by the Montgomery Convention of Bish
ops, tor the Southern University, has provoked
much discontent with many who were dispos
ed to favor the proposition to establish, at some
eligible point in the South an institution of
learning ot the highest grade. For awhile we
were disposed to attribute the murmuring at
the action of the Convention, to the disappoint
ment of those who were eager to have tlie lo
cation in or near tlie towns in which they re
spectively reside. In this we were not sure,
upon reflection and investigation, but that we
were too hasty. Unquestionably, the success
of the enterprise is to depend in some degree
upon its locality. It should be in a salubrious
region—of easy eccess, and surrounded by such
conveniences as will contribute not only to
cheapness of living, but to that comfort which
is so necessary to develope to a proper degree
the genial impulses of youth. The young man.
while a student, should neither be limited in
his associations to his fellow students, nor is it
well for him to be in the midst of such social
attractions as will incline him to find pleasure
in these, rather than in his Greek or Mathe
mathics. Moreover, it is desirable that there
shall be at hand opportunities to indulge in
those sports which conduce to health, as well
as relaxation, and these are hunting, horse
back excursions, swimming, rowing of boats.
&c., &c.
Opportunities for indulgence in relaxation of
this description, will prevent a resort to demor
alizing or vicious amusements. Whether the
Bishops will find such advantages as these in
the locality selected is now questioned, and
really seems to be questionable. If the mat- i
ter were now concluded Ixyond the possibility •
of re-consideration (so earnest are we in the '
desire to have this enterprise, which has been |
conceived and so far fashioned, by a generous '
and patriotic Southern heart, meet with the i
mest liberal encouragement), we should deem •
it unwise, and indeed unkind, to the projet tors
of the scheme, to interpose any suggestion at
variance with their deliberate opinions. But
it is said a Committee has been appointed to
negotiate tor the property selected as the site
for the University, and to report to another
convention of the Bishops soon to assemble.
This being so, it is not impr<q>er or impolitic to
venture the suggestion that while the Univer
sity located at Sewanee ///oy succeed, yet there
arc many other localities better adapted to the
purposes contemplated than that. As a mat
ter of course an appeal will soon he made to
the public, for funds wherew'th to erect the
necessary buildings, and to endow liberally—
bountifully—the institution.
When this appeal i> made, the public must *
be advised of the facilities for procuring upon I
the spot, or in its immediate vicinity, the nvc- !
cssary building material, and the cost thereof;
it will not be satisfactory to those who will be
disposed to aid the enterprise practically—in
other words, by the contribution of dollars—
to say that Sewanee 7* upon a mountain, where
the atmosphere is rare and the water pure.—
They will inquire the price of bricks and mor
tar, of provisions wherewith tv teed the mason
and the carpenter—they will ask whence is to
come the lumber and at what cost/ Or if they
do not cho-c to think of these practical consid
erations, will not those who contribute to the
institution, for the sake of their sons and ;
grandsons, inquire whether or not the region i
round aboutatford.s facilities for obtaining those j
comfort*, ami indulging in those sports which |
are a- essential to the preservation of the health ,
and the proper growth of the boy into man
hood, as a rare atmosphere and water without
lime in solution '
It may Jbe that Sewanee has ml vantages
whereby the projectors of this movement can
counteract any opposition to it, because of the
con at which we have hinted. If
so, and the Bishops shall adhere to the resolu
tion to plant the Institution there, we trust
all further expressions of dissatisfaction with
their action will cease.

EAR AND KN IL
DRS. LEBRUN A DUI’TON,
OCULISTS AND AL'RISTS.
DR. LEBRUN offers to those suffering from deaf
ness his infalHbb aural remedies, which have
been successful iu nearly three thousand cases ofcon
firmed deafness ! These reniedice have been pro
• nounced by Drs. Khnuner, of Berlin, and Deleau, of
Paris, and Curtis Pilcher, of London, as the moat
wonderful ever applied for diseases of internal and
middle ear. They comprise different courses for the
; \arious diseases that affect the external and middle
I . ar. Dr. Lebrun trarra/«/« a ettm in er cry ctnn, when
' the ear is perfect in its formation. He has eighteen
1 cert ificates from those who had been infau-
»y, w hose hearing is now completely restored, and they
' are now enabled to learn the language’. Uver twen
ty-seven hundred cases of deafness have been success
fully treated bv him. Certificates to that effect may
' !>c seen on application.
In all cases of deafness arising from inflammation,
! thickening, or even perforation of tho ‘•ineDibnuia
I tympani,” usually called the'drum’; inflammation of
mucus membrane of the tympanum and custiehain
tube, with accumulation of mucus; nervous affections,
|M>lvpus growths, Ac., or when the disease can be
traced to scarlet, typhus, billions or intermittent fe
ver, c< Ids, the use of quinine or mercurial medicines,
gatherings in the ears of childhood, Ac., the sense
can, in nearly every instance, be restored. When a
w ant of secretion is apparent, the “Auditory canal,”
being drv and scaly ; when the deatness is accompa
! nie 1 with noises in the ear, like rustling of leaves.
| chirping of insects, falling water, ringing of bells,
pulsations, discharge of mutter ; when hi a stooping
position a st nsation is felt as if a rush of blood to the
head had taken place ; when the hearing is perfectly
acute where there is much noise, or less acute in dull,
cloudy weather, or when cold has been taken, tho
cour*r pursued bv Dr. Lebrun is considered infallible.
Dr. Dl ETON, the only practitioner in the United
States who practices the new, painlta*, and succesa
-1 till method in treating all diseases to w hich the Eye
1 is subject, where every other means have failed to
afford relief, he asks from such a fair and impartial
trial. Patients sending a few particulars of their cas£,
can have remedies sent to any part.
Testimony,
“We the undersigned, practitioners of medicine in
the city of New York, having had occasion to witness
the practice of Drs. Lebrun and Dufton. in diseases
of the Ear and Eye, laying aside all professional jeal
ousy and prejudice, freely admit the course pursued
by them in treating disease* of those delicate organs,
from the unparalleled success which has attended it,
'is well w orthy the attention ofour professional breth
ren throughout the United States. Their svstem of
treating diseases of the middle and internal* ear, by
tlie use a of “medicated vaj»ors,” particularly in chron
ic and complicated cases, forms a new era in the
practice of aural surgery, atfd fills np a void which
has l.mg bi'en felt by the general practitioner. In dis
; <>ases of the eye, thev seldom require to resort to an
1 operation. As skillful Aurists and Oculists, and en
' thusiastically devoted to their profession, we cordial
( ly recommend them to such afc may require their aid.”
