MOUNT ZION, MONDAf, DECEMBER 17.
-—: . ?
We are sorry to observe tgat a report is in cir
culation in the Northers States, implicating the
character of the Rev. Mr. Ward, Baptist Mission
ary in India, who was lately engaged in this coun
try in collecting funds for the establishment of a
college at Serampore. It is hardly necessary to
state, that the object of the contemplated institu
tion is the education of native youth, to be em
ployed as Christian teachers arooug their pagan
countrymen ; this being considered the most et
feolual plan for breaking down their present de
basing and abominable system of idolatry. Mr.
Ward came highly recommended by the Baptist
Missionary Society in England, in whose service
he had been for some time employed, and also by
distinguished individuals in that country. While
in the U. States, his Christian deportment, liberal
ity of sentiment and unaffected piety secured him
the respect, esteem and entire confidence of the
religious put,lick ; and a considerable sum was
ifontributed by the various Christian denomina
tions to assist in promoting the great object he
had in view. But since his departure, it has been
intimated, that fie u carried off and misapplied
the money collected by him in this country.” lu
vindication of his character from this cruel accu-
sation, two gentlemen of the first respectability
in the city of New York, (Messrs. Belhune and
Colgate) have published a statement in which
they declare, that so far from carrying off the
money received in America, Mr. Ward invested
every dollar of it in the Canal six per cent, loan
of the state of N. York, the interest of which
only is to be remitted to India ; and actually drew
on the Society in England f<rr money to defray
his necessary expenses. Os the fund thus invest
ed, Messrs. Ralston and Staughton of Philadel
phia, and Bethune and Colgate of New York, are
trustees. It is remarked by the latter gentlemen,
that Mr. Ward is universally considered in Eng
land as one of the first philanthropists of the age,
and has received the thanks of the most respec
table religions associations in that country, for his
and disinterested zeal and indefatigable labours in
’ promoting the best interests of man ; and that
they “ do not believe a purer man than William
Ward, of Serampore, ever existed.”
For this unprovoked attack upon the character
of a stranger, whose conduct while here was ir
reproachable, and who,since he left our shores,
has expressed the most exalted opinion of this
country and of its institutions, there appears to
have been little or no ground. It can only
he imputed to a disposition but too prevalent in
every part of the union, to discourage and ridi
cule the exertions of those, who would impart to
distant and heathen lands, a knowledge of the
living God, and the blessings which Christianity
can alone impart—of whose exalted benevolence
and disinterested love of man, their sneering
calumniators seem to have no conception.
Meeting of Congress. —Monday the sth inst.
being the day appointed by the Constitution for
the commencement of the first session of the 17th
Congress, the two houses assembled at their res
pective chambers. In the Senate, Mr. Gaillard,
of S. C. took the chair, and a quorum being pres
ent, a committee (consisting of Mr. King ofN. Y.
and Mr. Mason of N. C.) was appointed to wait
upou the President, in conjunction with a com
mittee from the House, and inform him that the
two houses were ready to receive any communi
cation he might have to make. The Senate then
adjourned.
The roll of the House being called over by the
Clerk, and a large majority found present, he
declared that a quorum was assembled for the
transaction of business, and the house then pro
ceeded to the election of a Speaker. After seven
bullolings , not being able to effect a choice, a mo
tion was made to adjourn, and carried.
FIRST BALLOTING.
Whole number of votes, 161 : Necessary to a
choice, 81.
Os the whole number, there were for
J. W. Taylor, of New York, 60
C. A. Rodney, of Delaware, 45
Lewis McLane, of Delaware, 29
Samuel Smith, of Maryland, 20
H. Nelson, of Virginia, 5
Scattering, 2
161—-no choice.
On the 7th ballot, the result was declared as
follows: F< r
J. VV. Taylor, 77
C. A. Rodney, 69
S. Smith, 26
162—n0 choice.
The National Intelligencer states that the can
vass was not so animated as atthe last session,when
the excitement produced by the Missouri question,
was a: its height ; hut intimates that as many
more ballotings may he expected before a choice
i made. The election of a doorkeeper it was
likewise apprehended would be sharply contested,
as there were a great many candidates for the sit
uation. It was not expected that the Message
would be communicated before Wednesday.
subscribers in Eatonton and Monticello
must impute the failure of the Missionary of last
week to the circumstance, that the mail from
Pow<*lton, due on Thursday morning, was not re
ce?ved at the post office here. We understand,
however, that it passed within a short distance of
this place on Friday morning. Whether the car
rier was desirous to make up for the loss of a day
by saving a few miles travel, or had forgotten hit
route , we are not informed.
The failure of the mail by which we receive the
MilledgeViile papers, has deprived us of our usual
information relative to the proceedings of the Le
gislature. The following article from the Augus
ta Chronicle of the 13th inst. communicates the
latest and most interesting proceedings of that
body which we have seen ; and we heartily join
with tl>e editor of the Chronicle in congratulating
the publick “ upon the prospect of our state be-
the character that really belong to her.”
Dear Sir,—We had the pleasure to communi
cate to you some tirnc ago, the substance of the
report of the Committee on Publick Education.
We herewith hand you a copy of a note we rej
ceived a day or two ago from Col. Campbell o-
Wilkes, detailing the main provisions of a bill
founded upon that report, and introduced by
Gen,. Daniel, to the consideration of the Legisla
ture, under the title of a
BILL,
To be entitled an Act for the permanent endow
ment of County Academies; audio increase the
funds heretofore set apart for the encouragement
and support of Free Schools and for the Internal
Improvement of the State.
The School Fund consists of an half million
made up of Bank Stock.
Darien, 200,000
State Bank, do 200,000
Augusta, do 100,000
$500,000
The Internal Improvement fund consists of the
like sum made up of
Steam Boat Stock 100,000
Darien Bank Stock 125,000
State Bank do 2 JO,OOO
Planters’ Bank do 75,00
$500,000
The principal of neither fund, on any account
to be invaded or used, but the interest to be ap
plied annually. Half of the interest of the School
Fund goes to the encouragement and support of
Free Schools, and half to the ‘endowment of
County Academies. The latter sum to be first
distributed among the Counties most destitute,
and which have not received their original endow
ment in confiscated property. When all the
counties are brought upon ati equality the appor
tionment to be semi-annual and according to the
population of the counties.
The bill as far as we have seen, is popular with
the Legislature, and we hope it will pass. We
may be perhaps too sanguine, but we think anew
era has commenced in Georgia. A few weeks
more will determine whether our judgment has
been too hastily formed.
Yours truly, •
CAMAK & HINES.
P. S.—The bill passed, on Saturday in the
House of Representatives nem. con.
We have received the first number of “ The
Christian Repertory and Ky. Literary Register, ’
a paper recently established at Springfield, (Ky.)
by John C. Andrews, from which we have made
some selections for our second page. It is printed
on a sheet of ordinary size, and promises to be
the vehicle of much useful intelligence in regard
to the progress of Christian knowledge, as well as
the record of such other information as may be
interesting to the community generally. We
trust it will meet with that liberal support to
which its character and present appearance justly
entitle it.
Fire !—The Blacksmith Shop, at this place,
belonging to Mr. Joel Kelsey, was entirely de
stoyed by fire, together with a considerable pro
portion of the necessary implements of his trade,
on the night of the 13th inst.
It is expected that the Drawing of the Land
Lottery will close the beginning of the present

Latest from. England. —An arrival at Charles
ton has furnished London aud Liverpool papers
to the 29th Oct. A still further decline has ta
ken place in the price of cotton. A letter from
Liverpool dated the 30th Oct. says: “ With a
reference to future prices, very much will depend
upon the extent of the produce of the present
crops iu the United States. Should these be equal
in quantity to the last, it is our opinion that the
prices next year will be a little lower, for great as
the consumption is, the produce in America and
in other countries is evidently greater ; and we
see no reason to justify hopes of higher prices not
founded on the actual fact of a failure in the pro
duce of the crops.”
It is affirmed in the English papers that there
will be no war between Russia and Turkey. Ne
gotiations between the great European powers on
the subject of Turkish affairs are still going on.
Russia iusists on occupying certain places in Tur
key, in order to maintain the religion of the
Greeks inviolate, and prevent the repetition of
the barbarous outrages which have lately disgra
ced that country. The jealousy of the other pow
ers will not allow them to accede to this meas
ure, and it is proposed to qualify the demand by
having the garrisons composed of Russian, Aus
trian and English troops.
FOREIGN ITEMS.
Baron Strogonoff, the late Russian Ambassador
at Constantinople, had returned to St. Peters
burg. On his way from Odessa, he met the Era
perour Alexander coming out of Church, near a
small town called Luga. His majesty and the
ambassador, retired to the house of a Bailiff near
by, where they held a consultation.
His majesty was to leave Hanover on his return
to London, the 25tb Oct.
The daughter of Joseph Bonaparte sailed from
the river Thames on the 27th Oct. for Philadel
phia, to reside with her father.
A Dublin paper says:—“ We learn that a par
ty of Militia men are about to set out from that
city to Patras, to join the Greeks in the Morea.”
The Russian Court wore mourning eight days
for the late Queen of England.
A London paper says—The Landgrave of Hes
se is negociat.ing a loan of 40,000 florins, which
are intended to defray the expenses of the hon
our of receiving a visit from the King of England.
A church is now buildingin St.-Petersburg!), by
order of the Emperour Alexander, the pillars of
which are solid granite, nine feet in diameter,
thirty-six feet long, and weigh about one hundred
aud ten tons—they were, transported one hundred
miles by water, in vessels built for the purpose.

Coffee Land Expedition. —lt will be recollect
ed, that some time since we mentioned the cir
cumstance of the sloop Hunter, Capt. Carter,
/rom Philadelphia, having touched here, on an
exploring expedition—to explore the interiour
part of the peninsula below the 27th degree of
latitude—in search of land suitable for the culti
vation of the Coffee Plant. We have now the
satisfaction to learn that they have succeeded in
their laudable undertaking. We not only congrat
ulate the fortunate adventurers in this expedition,
but the nation, in the acquisition of a territory
which will one day add so greatly to her interest;
and which will give to the Floridas an importance
not inferiour to the surrounding states.
retaryofthe expedition, dated Charle*ton, Nov.
5, was politely furnished w by a respectable mer
chant iu this city : {n
“It is with pleasure that I announce to you
our arrival in this place. tVe did intend to touch

By a note from the Fostraasler in Wilmington
to the Postmaster*in this place, it appears that the
yellow fever still prevails in that place. The
Postmaster wrote the note itl his bed, stating
that Mr. John Stone had just died,and his moth
er was confined to bed of the prevailing fever.
Penitentiary. —By a statement of Mr. Philip
Cook, Keeper of the Penitentiary, it appears that
up to the 31st October, 1821, the number of con

In the account of the Penitentiary with the
state of Georgia, we find a balance in favour of
the Institution of $1,790 37. The amount of
stock on hand in manufactured- and unwrought
articles the 3lst Oct. 1821, is $7,053 61 ; the
amount of old debts not yet collected, and out
standing debts created during the present year,
$5,151 05. And the amouut of expenses for
clothing Guard and Convicts, salaries of Officers
and Guard, &c. $11,552 74. [JYeicr.
Murder, Confession, and Suicide—Considera
ble sensation, was excited iu Philadelphia last
winter, in consequence of the fallowing report
being in circulation. That a clergyman had bor
rowed from an old German, residing in Kensing
ton, the sum of Bor ten thousand dollars, which
he by hard and long continued labour hud saved.
That the borrower was unable to pay, and that in
consequence, the lender in a fit of grief and des
pair had’ cut his throat. The venerable gentle
man accused es having done the wrong, was com
pelled to go and see the corpse of the unhappy
rnau he was accused of having brought to nn un
timely end ; and I believe other consequence, still
more injurious, followed.
It is now ascertained, that the money was nev
er borrowed, nor that the man ever cut his throat.
A countryman <Sf his, who lived in the house with
him, and knew he had money, cut his throat,
conveyed away the money and then got up, as a
screen, the story of its having been borrowed.
The murderer soon after embarked for Europe.
On the passage, he was gnawed by the worm
which never dies, consumed by the firw which is
never quenched ; he confessed his crime to the
captain, cut his throat and expired. The vessel
and captain have lately returned, and the facts
are made known. [Dem. Press.
Imperial present. —The emperour Alexander
has presented Edward J. Cole, Esq. of Baltimore,
with a splendid ring, superiour it is said, to the
one received by Dr. Mitchell from the same mon
arch. It was presented to Mr. Cole as an evi
dence of the imperial approbation of his discharge
of his duties of vice consul, and is composed of a
bright topaz, set round with one hundred and sev
enty-five diamonds, fourteen of which are very
large.— Philadelphia Gas.
Newspaper Stealing. — A person was last even
ing detected taking our paper from the door of a
house, at which it had been previously left by the
carrier. He was observed, pursued and overtak
en, after running some distance, by a spirited in
dividual, whose forbearance and lenity did not
permit him to bestow the chastisement so clearly
merited. Measures however have been taken for
ascertaining his name ; and we now assure this
cffender, as well as others, that their petty thefts
shall not go unpunished. While on the subject
of our own concerns, we must again protest
against the system now in operation among the
many of “ borrowing their neighbour’s paper,”
thereby frequently depriving him of its perusal,
and at times saving the expense which he is not
too sordid to incur. Small indeed must be that
man’s share of patriotism, who is unwilling to
contribute six or eight dollars, for which he re
ceives an equivalent to keep in motion that pow
erful enemy of tyrants, a Free Press.

Pre-eminent Merit. —When the venerable
Charles Carroll , (one of the three surviving sign
ers o£,the Declaration of Independence) put hie
name to that immortal state paper, he was worth
three millions of dollars—all of which—besides
his personal risk, would have been confiscated,
had the object of that declaration have failed.
We are informed (says a Burlington, Vt. pa
per) by a gentleman from the eastern part of the
state, that an attempt was made, a few days j
since, to assassinate capt. Partridge, of the milita

a member of the institution. Capt. P. it is said,
had attempted chastisement for some misdemean

of contempt, snapped a pistol, charged with two \

He was instantly secured.

A few days since, forty armed men in Vermont,

states that a small piratical schooner containing
10 men, was taken off that place a few days pre

dom leaving his side. One evening, Napoleon,
after the fatigues of a scorching day, retired to
his tent, and was for some time employed in writ
ing. Sleep at length overcame him ; and while
sleeping, the plume that he wore in his hat nod
ded over the ligbt that was on the table, and was
instantly in a blaze. The Mameluke, who stood
sentinel at the entrance, rushed in to extinguish
the fire. The Emperour, suddenly awakened by
the noise, and unable, in the coufusion, to distin
guish between friend and foe, snatched his pistol
from the table, and that heart which so faithfully
beat for him received the fatal contents ! He
fell, and Napoleon never forgave himself for this

Isays long past. —lu the publication office of the
Saturday Evening Post, (Philadelphia) there still
remaius a relict of that great philosopher and
statesman, Benjamin Franklin, which may have
served as a hint to many of our ancestors, now
mouldering in the dust. At least fifty winters
have gone by since the following caution first ob
truded itself on the notice of those who visited
the sage, and were desirous of seeing the process
of the art of Printing. In that day the press was
in its infancy, and the numerous placards against
the oppressive acts of the British Ministry, issued
from these publick organs, were naturally calcu
lated to strengthen the prevailing curiosity of the
new colonists. The lines are much defaced, but
are sufficiently legible to be read with a little
scrutiny.
CAUTION.
All you that come this curious Art to see,
To handle any thing must cautious be ;
