ders, Nos. 1, 2. 3, aod 4. being , the best series of

Also—Dr. Roscbenberger's series of first books of Natu
ral History, comprising Anatomy and Physiology, Mamma-
logy. Ornithology, Ichthyology, and Herpetology, Ento
mology, Conchology, Botany and Geology.
It is not saying too nmch of these book*, that they are the
best, upon the subjects of which they treat, that have ever
been preoared for the use of schools.
A knowledge of the merits of these books will insure their
introduction in the schools throughout Georgia. The intro
duction nf new and valuable books into Our schools, always
it an indication of a progression in education. These valu
able school books are to bo fooud to almost evory country
town in the Bute.
Of the very many recommendations, we have received we
present the billowing from Rev. Mr. Beman:
8ir:—Having with care examined the "new scries of
readers for schools,” published by Messrs Grigg A Elliott,
without hesitation. I give it ms my opinion that they are ex-
cellent books, well adapted to the purposes for which they
are designed aud as a whole decidedly superior to suy
thing of the kind I have seen.
I have also examined Dr. Ruschenbergv’* “First Book
of Natural History (except the 8th number) with groat plea

to teachers, as eminently calculated to interest and instruct

THE Subscriber,Proprietorcf the Indisn 5priii" Hotel,
for the last two years, would most respectfully inform his
friends and patrons of this State, of South Carolina. Ala
bama and its vicinities, that lie has at a great expanse,
erected a splendid HOTEL under the above name,
for the ample accommodation of visiters during the ap
proaching season.
This House will be opened on the 20th da v of May next.
The McIntosh House is in depth 250 feet bv 43 wide—
coctzins between seventy and eighty large and airy rooms,
together with three spacious Drawing Rooms and a splen
did Ball Room; large and wide Piazzas extending around
the Hotel—making it what has so long been desired at this
Spring—one of the largest and most commodious Hotels
e *n e r ected #t an - v Wi, tering place in the Southern oouutry.
During the last two seasons there has been much com
plaint for want of more accommodations forthe hundreds
that datly flock u< this well known aod justly celebrated
watenng place.
This season there shall be no reason of complaint for
w ??* ?. * cco,n modationa, or Indeed any thing connected
with this establishment.
The McIntosh House will accommodate over four hun
dred persons 1
Neither pains or expense have been spared In furntshirg
and fitting up thia House so as to render it truly a house
for all who may favor it with their patronage. !Phe furni
ture is all new and of the most sterling kind, having beta
made up to order lor thia establishment.
The location of the McIntosh House la on the brow of
the McIntosh Hill, overlooking the Spring, for many yeirs
the residence of the celebrated Col. McIntosh of the Creek
nation, so well known ani associated in the Indian history
of our country. '
The Subscriber, therefore, flatters himself that In order,
comfort, and systematic arrangement, the McIntosh House
shall not be surpassed; and bopes from bis continued ex-
ertions to please, he may secure a share of the public pat

AN ARTIST’S REVENGE.
An amusing correspondent of tie Courier
des Etats Unis tells tho following:
One of our most celebrated painters had
made, with the view of exhibiting at the Galle
ry, the portrait of a lady, whose fortune has
enabled her to occupy a very brilliant position,
and who hud been, for a loog time, regarded as
one of the most beautiful women in Paris. Un
fortunately, this reputation is one of such long
standing, that it is already on the wane. The
lady in question has ulready reached an ago to
which no one is ever willing to acknowledge,
however much it may have been extolled by
the ir.*’-ty pen of Balzac.
The diia'V fi-'es of the Civil Registry kept
die secret ot j.’er forty summers, which she
concealed us well as ffho could, with a wonder
ful skill, and by her grea£ endeavors to be as
attractive as in times past. Pafi** i 3 a place of
great lesources; ointment for all wounds are
to be found there, as well as admirers of all
ages. Our heroine maintained her pretensions
bravely; her vanity was tolerated, and being
desirous of giving publicity |.o her attractions
by an exhibition at the Louvre, she bad her
portrait painted. She prepat ed her best looks
for the purpose, wearing her most becoming
dress, assuming a position most favorable to her
charms, seated before her toilette table, lean
ing negligently on the arm of her chair, and
surfing upon her reflect ion in the mirror, which
of course, was to be the most complimentarv lo
her charms. *
The painter sketched a most striking like
ness; in doing so, he did just what he should
not have done. A liille more flattery, and a
little less exactness, would be far more accep
table. The model declared she could not see
any likeness in ji, and die painting was lelton
the hands of the unfortunate painter.
This was a double wrong lo our artist. At
tacked boih professionally and pecuniarily, die
painter had not sufficient resignation to enable
him to look on coolly and see a portrait worth
a thousand crowns left on his hands. A way
to he revenged, or radicr to do himself justice,
presented itself in his nund, and he sat himself
at snee about putting ft into execution.
A few days before Uus time for offering pain
tings for the exhibition at die Louvre, the lady
who had refused jo lake her portrait was in
formed, by some fiieuii that the rejected por
trait had received sundry additions of a charac
ter far from complimentary. She immediately
repaired to the studio of our artist. The por
trait was si ill there; the likeness of the face as
perfect ns ever; ouly the painter had some-
wbaj dismantled jhe brows, aud the person so
fuitltfiiliy represented, was holding iu Iter bauds
two bunches of false curls,
Upon her toifet table were found several phi
als, upon which were legibly written these
wordf: “ white lead," “vegetable rouge"
“ cosmetic for the removal of wrinkles,” “ wa
ters for dying the hair." Then in the midst
tof *11 tbjs artillery, could be distinctly seen
three biilets, signed by three Christian names.
•“ This is abominable!” cried the lady; it is
all a (issue of cajumnies.”
“Of what do you complain?” replied the
painter, very coolly. “ Have you not insisted
that there was not the least likeness of yourself
here ? You were perfectly right. You were
perfectly right. Tius is no likeness of yours;
it js a mere fancy sketch, and as such 1 mean
to .exhibit it.”
“ What, sir! f)o j'ou mean to exhibit that
painting?”
“ Certainly, madanie, I mean to exhibit it as
the catalogue will show, in which you will find
it set down under the title of—A coquette of
forty-five.
Gen. Taylor.—The Philadelphia Ledger
gives the following accounts ol this oflicei c
“Gen. Taylor was born in Virginia, nrul
raised in the neighborhood of Lousville, Ky.
He entered tho army as a lieutenan*, in 1808;
was a captain, and greatly distinguished him-
self in the defence of Fort Harrison, in 1&12,
; which post he eonimandt'd when it ft’ -
tacked by a greatly hupexjpr force of BiitLsh
and Indians. For his gallant conduct on that
occasion he was made brevet major, being the
first bvevet that was conferred in that war.
Gen. T. was in Florida during a pan of ihe
late Semhtolo war, and commanded in person
at the bailie of Occochubbe, on the 25th of
Ceccmber, 1837. IPs gallantry and 11 on
that occasion won; for him the rank oi brevet
brigadier general.”
whatever may by of local or gent ral interest,
rmted with care. For this purpose he ha3 fur
nished a number of counties .n die State,
through tha Executive, with a rough .Map upon
which the Inferior Court were requested to
to have dotted and tnatked : the particulars
above referred to, and return the same to Mr.
B. In. bnt few cases has this reasonable requea
b«en executed to ihe Inferior Court, and it
strikes us with surprize that it has not been
done. Surely it cannot but benefit a county,
to have it well delineated upon a map that is
intended to be the best, the most elegant, and
the only correct one that Georgia has - over had!
We trust therefore that the Inferior Court*
who have received ihe request above referred
to, will not fail to give the information sough;
after, but that they will promptly return to'
Mr. Bonner the sketch in their possession with'
every public place, stream, or line in il,-propter
ly located and marked.
MASSACRE OF the CREW OF THE
SHIP MARY.
We regret to stale that infotmation has at
length arrived announcing the wreck of this ves
sel and the dreadful fate of her crew, who'
sailed on a whaling expedition about three years
since to Sydney, thence to Woodlark Islands.
The particulars arc obtained,' lrom a survivor,-
named Valentine—the only one—seven of the
crew having perished in the shipwreck, and
ihe remaining 28 wer horribly mossacred by
the natives oi W’oodlark Islands. 1 lie escape
of Valentine is most extraordinary. He is
now on his passage to Englai d, having been -
rescued by the crew of the brig 1 igress.
From his statement, it appears that - the vessel
arrived at Sydney in Senten her, 1S43, and
proceeded in "a few days direct for W oodlark
Islands, end reached them in the month of No
vember, having had favorable winds ali ’he time,
as well as remarkably fine weather. Pile Laey
Anne and the brig Tigress, he says, accompan-
led fhem. They cruised upon the North west
side until the 21st of that month', when the
weather changcdt an( k before 12 at night, an
awful s'orm came on. It sprung up about *
from the westward,and afterwards veered round
to the north-west with such fury as to destroy
their small-boftt, galley, bulwarks, &c.,and
sweep away all on deck.- The ftext morning
matters were worse. At 12 o’clock iheir maiu
and mizen-masts were carried away by the force
of the hurrican, and ai 4 the ship struck on
Louglilin’s reef, where she became u total
wreck The crew took to the rigging, where
they remained exposed nearly 43 hours before
the sea had sufficiently abated to enable them
to construct a raft to gain shore. In the mean. .
time several or the crew, including the chief
mate, Mi. J.Settle, perished. On reaching the
shore, several natives came dawn and kindly
treated them, by furnishing cocoa-nuts and pro
visions, and afterwards-conducted them to their
village. The master, Capler Stein, on fin
ding 0 there was no chance of speaking with a
ship, resolved to build a vessel that would en
able himjand his me a to proceed to sea. Ac
cordingly, all bands were set to work to save
as much of the wreck as possible* and in this
they were fortunate, For nine months they
enjoyed the utmost friendship with the natives
atid 'received a good supply of such provisions
ns the islands afforded. Suddenly, however,
just after the launching of their new-built
schooner, and within a few days of their inten
ded departure, they (it was supposed, in retali
ation,) came down upon them and murdered
Captain Stein and six of the men.
Havin'* no provisions whatever on board,
anil being without water, the survivors endea
vored .to treat with the natives; the latter, how
ever. resisted their relanding, and ibey made
for Woodlaik Island in a six-oared whale boat, •
a journey which occupied five days, during
whitch time they subsisted on sea birds anu
fish. Here t they uCre kinJI y ' eceiVe<3 > and re ’
mainded preparing for a tengihend voyage,
until some natives oi the Loughlm Isan
arrived, and apprized the chiefs or what bad
occured ther, when the natives rushed to ..ie
spot where thev were encampeu, at; i massacre
the whole of them. Valentine, who it appears
was in 3a nbjacent wood, escaped. ie P?
fellow endured the gratest privation, being
compelled io ;nake the wood his habitation for
several weeks. Having been the means of
saving the life of a native, he coni rived to
m4:e the party aware of Ins pen.ous
who assisted him to a distant part of the si and.
Where the Tigress brig noon aferwmrds an,
chorcd to obtain water, on boaru ol which he
instantly found refuge.
