TH 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 week. General Intelligence. ’ 11 r— 1 1 ‘ 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. St. Augcstihe, Nov. 24. 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 at St. Augustine, but were prevented from so do ing by bad weather. IVt hare succeeded in our enterprise .” ‘ (Gazette. Fayetteville, JV. C. Mot. 21. 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 victs received, amounted to 174 From 117 to 1820, Received 145 Pardoned 18 Escaped . 12 Discharged 25 Died 3 58 87 1821 Received 29 Pardoned 11 Discharged 9 Escaped 2 Died 6 28 - 1 Remaining in the Penitentiary 3lst October, 1821, 88 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. Sat. Republican. Newspaper Reading. Let a family of children be put regularly in possession of a newspaper—and let another fami ly, though possessing the same advantages with regard to scholastick acquirements, be deprived of it, and the difference between them will be dis cernible to the slightest observation. Lynchburgh Gasetle. 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 ry academy at Norwich, by a youth of sixteen ! a member of the institution. Capt. P. it is said, had attempted chastisement for some misdemean or, when the irritated fellow, with an expression of contempt, snapped a pistol, charged with two \ balls.’ at his breast, which fortunately missed fire. He was instantly secured. A letter from Havanna, Nov. 5, speaking of the piratical vessels, says, “ Although five have been brought in, yet others are fitting.” Cobbett is marvellously provoked at the bones of Major Andre being brought to England. He makes no bones himself with other people’s car cases, as Paine cau avouch, but he wishes no per son to intrude upon his vocation.— [JYo/. Adv. A few days since, forty armed men in Vermont, commenced an attack upon the squirrels, and in 48 hours killed and brought to head-quarters, I 4961 of those animals. The next day a mammoth pot pie was made, and 275 persons partook of the repast, and not more than half the pie was con sumed. * Summary Justice. —A letter from Trinidad, (Cubit) received in Charleston, dated 19th ult. states that a small piratical schooner containing 10 men, was taken off that place a few days pre vious, by some volunteers, and the whole of the pirates put to the sivard. A few examples of this kind will have the best effect in checking the ca reer of the villains who have so long infected that neighbourhood, and committed their outrages with impunity upon the persons and property of, our citizeas, [Sar.

Mallby, for slanderous words spoken of Mrs. Allen, of three thousand dollars. It appears by a statement in the Franklin Tel egraph, that 533 wolves and 4 whelps have been killed in that county in the course of the last year —and that the state, county and town bounties on them amount to 21,380 dollars. And the whole amount of bounties on wolves, bears, pan thers and foxes is said to be 34,912 dollars. Plattsburg papor. The House of Assembly of Kentucky have passed a bill to tax Billiard Tables in that state five hundred dollars each! Two females lately fought a duel in France and exchanged two shots without injury; jealousy is said to have caused the meeting. A Bill 11 against upstarts, pretended gentlemen and vagabonds ,” has passed to a second reading in the legislature of Tennessee.

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 rashnsss. / Lord Byron has written the following epitaph: ‘ Here lies a being who had all the virtues of hu manity without it? vices.’ This perfect being was Boatswain , the dog of the Noble Poet. 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 ; Lest, by a slight touch, ere you’re aware, That mischief may be done you can’t repair: Lo !
