Eulogies on Gen. Jackson.
Wc have on file and shall lay before our rea

livered in Savannah on the character and pub
lic services of Gen. Jackson, by M. H. McAl

alike honorable to the accomplished gentlemen
who delivered them, and to the memory of
the illustrious man, whose virtues they were in
tended to commemorate.

Of Ncw York with great satisfaction. He was
for several years the able and consistent edi

and daring chivalry which tho threats of open

had a democratic majority at the last election.
No considerations should weigh a feather wiih
any one who is at heart and in truth a Republi

duty which he owes to his State and country to
support the Republican administration of the

the high duty which the present contest in

Honors to the memory of General
JACKSON.
Saturday noxt, the 26th inst., is the day set
apart by the people of Crawford county for
paying appropriate honors to the memory of
Gen. Jackson. Thomas C. Howard, Esq. has
been chosen as the orator for the occasion; and
wc predict for his hearers a treat in his eulogi-
um. The address will be delivered at Knox
ville.
Col. Campbell’s Eulogy.
It gives Its great pleasure to lay before our
readers to-tlay the very able and admirable eu-
Iogium, pronounced by Col. D. C. Campbell in
this city on Tuesday last, in honor of the
Christian, Hero, Statesman, and Patriot,
whom tho nation now mourns. The classic
purity of his style, as well as the lieauty and
truthfulness of the portrait he has drawn, are
honorable both to tire orator and the hero, and
cannot fail to commend the address to public
attention among the liberal and generous mind
ed of his political opponents as well as amohg
his numerous personal and political friends*
Wr. "WcALLfSTEB.
As enquiries have been frequently made of
us concerning the contemplated movements of
the Democratic candidate for Governor during
the canvass of the present summer, we take
this occasion to answer the numerous friends of
that gentleman in this part of the State by in
serting tho following from the Georgian of Fri
day lasit
“Wo have received various communications
from respectable private sources desiring to
know whether the nominee of the Democratic
parly proposes to canvass the State, or in the
parlance of the day to ‘‘take tiie slump.” We
have heretofore stated what we supposed would
be the course of Mr. McAllister, and now re
iterate our opinion. It is—that he will not
take the stump. We know that it is his inten
tion to spend the remainder of tho summer in
the interior. His object is to extend his per
sonal acquaintance among the people ol the in-
terior—nn acquaintance which has been limit,
ed by reason ol his confinement to the laborious
duties of his profession. He will receive the
hospitalities of his friends, and extend to them
the right hand of fellowship. Such lias been
the course heretofore pursued in this State by
!]fe^coui% r or*Ai , r!' , AlcAIJisfer.—
One thii g we know, and our knowledge is ba-ed
upon n long and intimate acquaintance With tho
man, that ho will do nothing unbecoming the
high position in which the Republicans of the
State havo placed him.”
Tilings lost forcVcr*
Mrss Sigourney in one of her admirable re
flections upon human life, its great duties and
its vast concerns, makes the following just re
marks!
“Lost wealth may he restored by industry—
the wreck of health regained by temperance—
forgotten knowledge restored by study—alien
ated friendship smoothed into forgetfulness;
even forfeited reputation won by penitence and
virtue: but who ever vgain looked upon his
vanished hours—recalled his slighted years-*-
atamped them with wisdom—or effaced from
heaven’s record the fearful blot of wasted life.”
Geoigia FctUalc College.
We understand that the examination of the
Graduating Class of this institution was most
satisfactory to the board of visitors and the
large and delighted auditory that attended it.—
On Thursday lust the compositions of the Se
nior class were read and certificates of gradua
tion presented to eighteen young ladies. We
have not been furnished with their names or
tho subjects of their compositions; but under
stand that they were cred.table both to the class
and the institution. The report of the board of
visitors will be found in another column, from
which it will be seen that the institution is now
free from all pecuniary embarrassment, and its
future prospects of success and usefulness most
promising.
“ Every One to his own Taste.’ 1
The following singular notice we clip from a
NeW York paper, the Daily Tribune. We
wish the Gentleman every success in making
the acquaintance he desires, and a safa and
speedy convoy to the fairy land for which he
sighs. But why does this great philanthropist
require of applicants an explicit statement re
specting their “pecuniary condition.” The
colouroughttobo a sufficient dower, we think,for
him.
“Matrimony-*<-A while gentleman wishes to
marry a colored lady of education and religious
principles, and who is willing to reside in a
country where the accident of complexion will
not debar her from the worship of God in any
church or cathedral with the fairest of her sex;
and where character, not color, is the passport
to society. The advertiser is unacquainted
with the colored ladies of this city; he therefore
requests that any lady answering this advertise
ment will he candid and explicit instating age,
pecuniary circumstances, &c. The greatest
honor may bs relied on. Address Q. Z.—
Any white Indy who detests slavery and is free
from prejudice against color, who may please to
answer, will be attended to.”
Postage to Texas.
Under the new Post Office Law, letters
weighing a half ounce and under, can be sent
to any part of Texas, for 10 cents. The post
age on papers will be one cent.

Money is getting to be as abundant as ever.

MACON, July 19th, 1845.
Deport of tlie H>iird of Visitors of the
We* Icynn female College.
During tho annual commencement of the
Wesleyan Female College which closed on the
Thursday, 17ih inst., the undersigned as a
board of visitors attended the College exercises
and examination, and take pleasure in bearing
their testimony to the soundness of the course
of instruction and the honorable proficiency the
classes had made. No one who herd the ex
amination could have been other than pleased
at tbe prompt answers given to the questions
proposed, and the satisfactory synopsis of the
arguments connected. But there is one feature
in the course of study which we »h>nk of pecu
liar excellence and therefore deserves special
commendotion-*-we me m the thorough und ex
tensive course the young ladies take in mathe
matics ; convinced as we are that this is tho
best mode of training the mind to habits of in-
xe tigamm, and the indispensable necessity of
mathematical demonstration to the proper un
derstanding of many of the most useful and in
tcrestlng sciences J * we were greatly delighted
to notice that in all the classes great care had
been taken to instruct und-rsiandingly at this
point. The young ladies showed them-elves
capable of excellence in tbe most ubstruse and
difficult departments. They understand the
principles and apply them—they think. YV c
mean this as a just tribute of praise to merit.—
About one hundred and forty students have
been connected with the insiitution the past
year—und was matter of frequent remark a-
inong the strangers at commencement how
healthful and cheerful they all looked. We
know of no reason now why the College may
not continue to send forth in its graduating class
es a stream of virtue and intelligence, pouring
its light and loveliness on home and country
inasmuch as it is now free from pecuniary em
barrassment, and relams its able President
(Ellison) and Professor of Nut. Sciences (Dar
by) und competent number of luitliful teachtrs.
Ourd«ug ters must be educated, well, soundly
educated—the doors of the literary worl I now
stand open to female genius, and the spirit of
the age demands that site enter in and mingle
her delicacy of sentiment and moral purity of
taste and feelings with the mental aliment from
the fruitful press as well a* bless and beautify
communicated.
George W. Crawford s chief merit, agreea
bly to the veritable whig editorial corps, back
ed by a host of partisan acriblers, is his extra
ordinary financial abilities, This hits puzzled
me not a little—and relief from this perplexity
has been sought by a careful examination of
their prints, but in vain, for I find nothing but
bold assertion—unsustained by proof, °
Now Mr. Editor, in such case, what are we
to do—should fail and implicit credence be
given to the mere ip3e dixit of these truth lov
ing gentry, oris it wiser, and at the same time
not uncharitable to suppose the evidence does
notin fact exist, or they would, notwithstand
ing their unimpeachable character for veracity,
deem jt safer and more politic, to place these
assertions before the public so strongly forti
fied by facts, that the most skeptical could no
longer doubt. This sir would be a triumph of
truth over prejudice—a victory worth the win
ning—but perhaps they either do not truly ap
predate its value, or true to their vocation tie
still, rather than encounter a labor so bootless,
and at last in the bitterness of disappointment,
be constrained io exclaim “yea I sought it, but
it could not be found.”
If his Excellency’s genius for finance be so
fertile, is it not “ passing strange” that we
should be alone indebted to a partisan press for
a knowledge of it, for surely he has originated
no plan, adopted no measure, matured no
scheme which indicates his boasted ability in
this regard. When, where, how and upon
what occasion, did he develope his surpassing
skill in the science of finance ? Did his fa
mous Central Bank report emit the first scinc-
tillation of Ins brilliant talents. It is certainly
pardonable to th'nk it did not—for if legisla
tive records do not speak falsely, Gov. Craw
ford after bestowing close attention to the af
fairs, and a rigid scrutiny into the Condition of
that institution, reported it to be unable ever
to meet its liabilities,- as Utterly and hopelessly
insolvent. To me it seems clear, that at the
time he penned that memorable report, he
was either Very greatly deficient in clearness
of perception and soundness of judgment, es-
suntial elements of a financial mitid, or lie was
by party requirements, or partisan vindictive
ness, carried beyond tho point at which the
people or his conscience could award an ap
proval. This opinion Mr. EJitor is believed
seriiun, tun ine'coouiron or ine mint, its tolls
being at par value give to the report, the “ lie
direct.” Nor will it he pretended by the most
unscrupulous of his Excellency’s friends, that
since the appearance of the report, the Bank
has by any means or operation, other than an
increase of interest upon demands then and
sinre fallen due, made one doiIar-=»on the con
trary. since that time its means have been crip,
n'el, and its resources diminished by the total
joss of large sums, then considered at the worst,
as but doubtful. Will the sapient editors re
concile the report, with the fact as it exists, or
will they as more convenient adopt a logic after
this sort. A Governor must be a great man—
a great man must be supposed to know all
about money matters. Hence George W.
Crawford bring Governor, is a great mah atid
a great financier.
I have, Mr. Editor, some views in reserve,
which may or may not be given at a future
time, by which I think every unprejudiced man
will be convinced, thnt if indeed by wise man
agement, the Bank has been rescued from dis-
truction, that Governor Crawford deserves no
more credit for it, than vnu or I, unless indeed
becuuse Mr. Thomas the director is tbo ap*

w ith life lease of the premises now in his possession, if pre
ferred. To a person with moderate capital the advantages
of this position would be verv obvious; there being only
three establishments of the kind in Macon, and these but of
limited means and extent The field is fully open for an ex
tensive trade noton'y in the city but with the finest aud
richest portion of Georgia ; and there is no reason why Ma
