For the Sentinel and Herald,
The last Enquirer has hunted up the fill-1
lowing oid story, which it parades before its
readers as a bran-fire span new tiling. Here
it is. with the remarks of the Enquirer.
‘ Mr. Van Buren is said to be friendly to
the Southern interest, and especially to our
domestic policy. Hear Ins opinions on the j
subject, when a member of the ‘New York |
Legislature!!’ The Resolutions were intro-j
duced by him in relation to the admission of!
Missouri! Can the Van Buren Union candi- j
dates swallow these ? Can the White Union i
men do so? Let us know, gentlemen.
Mr. Van Boren’s resolutions :
‘ The Constitution of the United States
clearly (fives Congress the right to require of j
the new states, not comprised within the)
original boundaries of the Uni'ed States, the j
prohibition of slavery, as a condition of their j
admission into the Union. Therefore,
‘ Resolved, That our Senators be instruct-J
ed to oppose the admission, as a State, into!
this Union, any Territory, {not comprized!
as aforesaid, without making the prohibition j
of slavery therein, an indispensable condition
of admission.’
Now, Mr. Enquirer, if there is any truth j
in all this, I wonder you did not find it out J
before you and your party nominated and j
supported Mr. Van Buren tor the Vice Pres
idency. You had better have a little more
care, Mr. Enquirer. We would advice you
for the future to feel your way, or look where
you place your footsteps. While you are
doing such tall walking aver Mr. Van Buren,
you might, perhaps, catch a lofty fall, or butt
your brains out before you know it. <l.

THE ENQ.UIK.ER AND COL. LEWIS.
‘Fhe Ei quirer makes a feeble and lame at
tempt to extricate itself fiom the dirty pre
dicament which it has placed itself into, bv
the disgraceful insinuation that Col. Lewis
intended ‘to ridicule and bring disrepute
upon the spirit of Christianity;’ indeed, in
stead of extricating itself, if has made bad
worse, by assuming to ilself such conse
quence in its relation to the Church, much
more so at leas), we .think, than the religious
community will allow it, as a political dab
bler in every dirty puddle. Hear what it
savs in relation to this matter.
‘ Our remark was entirely suppositions, and j
in reply to one of Col. Lewis, which was ca
pable of a double interpretation. It was
plain to us that, by the use of the term ‘ very
righteous editors,’ Col. L. intended either to
impugn the religious character of the editors
of this paper, or, through them, give an un
gracious and unmanly stah at religion.’
Now we would ask, what right had the
Enquirer to make ‘suppositious’ remarks at
at. all as to Col. Lewis’s motives, when there
was not the least grounds for its insimiati as
against him? What right Ins the Enquirer
to suppose a thing about any individual, un
less it has grounds to rest its suppositions
upon ? But it.says ‘it was plain to us that,
W the term ‘ very righteous editors Col. L.
intended either to ‘ impugn the religious cha- I
racter of the editors of this paper, or, through |
them, give an ungracious an i unmanly stab j
at religion.’ Reader, dont you feel sick its
the craw and faint about the head, since you
read the above sentence ? And how is tt
plain to the Enquirer that Col. Lewis, by the
term ‘ very righteous,’ intended to ‘ give an
ungracious and unmanly stab at religion r’
Then the Enquirer, as we before stated, does
indeed consider itself to he the essence and
fountain head of religion ; and, according to
its own saying, to question its doings, is to
question the operations of the ‘ spirit of reli
gion which has lately so powerfully mani
fested itself in this city.’ To doubt, it, is to
doubt religion—to call its editors * righteous
is to give an ‘ ungracious and unmanly stab
at religion.’ This assumacv of the Enquirer,
as presumptions as it is, will not eiTi'c! Col.
Lewis ; this community knows him too well j
to sutler the shabby insinuations of the En
quirer to raise the least prejudice against him
in the bosom of a single individual ; and if
we are not very much mistaken, after ail the
Enquirer has said, the religions community
in this city and countv will support him as
freel#as before the Enquirer attempted to
electioneer among them ; at least, we think,
it has not made any change in it.
A PLAIN MAN.
TO THE PUBLIC.
The Georgia Female CoUege. —The build
ing lor this institution, the most airy, spa
cious, and splendid, perhaps, of any in the
State of Georgia, containing seventy-two
rooms, with ample space for at least two
hundred hoarders, is now almost being com
pleted. It stands on a beautiful eminence,
overlooking the City of Macon, and will be
opened for public instruction on the first day
of J anuary, 1539. It will he under the
charge of the ilev. George E. Pierce, (so
well known in the state of Georgia,) as Pres
ident, and who will reside in the institution,
assisted by an able and efficient faculty, and
from whom the pupils consigned to their care,
will no doubt receive a practical and com
plete education, In the College will be taught
not only the whole course of English Letters
and Science, but also vocal and instrumental
Music, Drawing and Painting, together with
the Latin, Greek, French, Spanish, and Ita
lian Languages; ‘and last, though not least,’j
there will be in operation a system of Domes- i
tic Economy, by which the young ladies,!
under the direction of experienced teachers. I
will be enabled, and required to prepare, and •
keep in good order, all their own clothing,!
thereby avoiding milliner’s bills while at
school, sad at the same time preparing them-i
selves creditably to do this work for them
selves and families, in future life. The great!
object of the Trustees will be, to make the!
course of studies practical and moral, ns well!
as literary, thereby rendering the pupils that j
may pass through this Institution, the coin- i
fort and pride of all associated with them inj
after years. It is contemplated that lire fixed j
expense of each pupil will be about Two |
Hundred and Fifty Dollars per annum. —
This sum w.ii cover the expenses for the use:
of a room, for eating, and tuition of evgry de-j
scription ; or in other words, for the* use of;
a room and eating, 6150. and for tuition of
every description, 8100. The parents of pu
pils will have to furnish their own r vims, with
such furniture as they deem necessary; or. if
required, it will be done by the faculty, and
charged in their bills. This last expense is
more nominal than real, as, on leaving, the;
furniture can always be sold to the next oc
cupant for nearly its original cost.
The Trustees are desirous to ascertain what
the probable number of pupils will be, at the
opening of the Institution, and for this pur-:
pose anxiously request all persons intending;
to send, to signify it by letter, addressed tol
Col. E. Hamilton, (post paid) at Macon, as
soon as may be convenient. The Board wil
meet in the city of Macon, on the 29th of
November, at which time they wish to have
I this information before them, as they then ex
j pect to fill the remaining offices, and make
the final arrangements for opening the Col
lege on the first day of January, 1839. We
will merely further aJJ, that although it is
very desirable, and earnestly recommended,
that the pupils be boarded in the College
building, yet the rule is not imperative, and
! parents preferring to do so, have the privilege
[of hoarding their daughters within the City
or Vineviile, both of which are sufficiently
convenient.
The friends of (his Institution will have ex
! pended, of their private funds, in its erection
j and outfit, considerably more than $50,000,
I without expec ting any other return or benefit
| than that which every other citizen of the
j country may receive. Their object has been
I ihe public good, and now, with confidence
j and pleasure, they offer its treasures to the
j rising generation of their beloved country
j women.
By order of the Executive Commit tee.

CO” Editors sis papers in Alabama, Missis
j sippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida,

| education, will oblige us by publishing the

THE MjEI.STKUM WHIRLPOOL.
Letter from a gentleman in fVashington to
the Hon. A. B. iVoodward, Judge of Mid
dle Florida.
This wonderful phenomenon, that l as ex
cited the wonder and astonishment of the
world, I have seen. There are few of my
! countrymen who have had the opportunity,
I in consequence of the situation of it being
i remote from any port of commerce. Its lati
; tilde and longitude 1 do riot exactly recollect.
; Ii is situated between two islands, belonging
| to a group off the coast of Norway, called
; the Lowin-stafl Islands, between D-ontheim
I (being the most northern point of commerce)
j and tiie North Cape. I suppose the latitude
to be about 69 North, but will not be certain.
I had occasion, some years since, to navi
gate a ship from North Cape to Drontheim,
nearly all the way between the islands or
rocks and the main. On inquiring of my
Norway pilot about the practicability of run
ning near the whirlpool, lie told me that with
a good breeze it could be approached near
enough for examination without danger. I at
once determined to satisfy myself. We be
gan to near it about 10 A. M. in the month
of September, with a fine leading wind north
west. Two good seamen were placed at the
helm, and the mate on the quarter deck, all
hands at their stations for working ship, and
the pilot standing on the bowsprit, between
! tlie night heads. I went on the maintopsatl
yards, with a good glass. I had been seated
but a few 7 moments when mv ship entered
the dish of the whirlpool; the velocity of the
water altered her course three points toward
the centre, although sfie was going eight
knots through the water.
This alarmed me extreme’y ; for a moment
i l thought that destruction was inevitable.
She, however, answered her helm sweetly,
and we ran along the edge, the waves foam
ing around us in every form, while fche was
dancing gaily over them. The sensations I
experienced are difficult m describe. Imagine
to yourself an immense circle, running round,
of a diameter of one and a hall miles, the
velocity increasing as it approximated toward
the centre, and gradually changing its dark
blue color to white—foaming, tumbling, rush
iny to the vortex; very much concave, as
much so as the water in a tunnel when half
run out; the noise, too, hissing, roaring,
dashing —ail pressing on the mind at once,
presented the most awful, grand, solemn sight
1 ever experienced.
| We were near it about eightenern min-
I tiles, and in sight of it about two hours.
!It is evidently a subterranean passage,
that leads —the Lord knows where. From
its magnitude I should not doubt that in
stant destruction would be the fate of a do
zen of our largest ships, were they drawn in
at the same moment. The pilot says that
several vessels have been sucked down, and
that whales also have been destroyed. The
first I think probable enough, hut I rather
doubt the latter. — Mich. Herald.
ABILITY AND FIDELITY.
That a knowledge of the subject taught
is a necessary qualification to the teacher,
would seem a proposition which it is need
less to prove, if it were not that there are
some that set up an imp ulse of the spirit as a
substitute tor attainments ot that sort,and as
j litr a dispensation of such studies as may en
able to explain, to defend, and to apply the
truths of Scripture. Not so with St. Paul,
who instructed Timothy as follows : ‘ The
tilings which thou hast heard of me, the same
commit thou unto faithful men, who shall be
abie to teach others also.’ Still we find fidel
ity held up as the first and leading requisite;
hut ability to teach goes hand in hand with
it, as that without which it would be of little
use to the edification of the Church.
It'it be asked, what aie the subjects which
come within this branch of knowledge? I
answer, that in this, as in every line, it must
be such as especially pert ains to the profes
sion concerned. If there be other intellectual
attainments of importance to a clergyman,
as indeed there are, it must be on the princi
ple expressed in one of the questions in the
ordination service —that they help to a know
ledge of what is contained in Scripture. —
Whatever can assist in so good a work —and
there is scarcely a branch of useful or gene
ral knowledge which may not lend ils aid —
who will dare say that it is foreign to the
character of a gospel minister? But if hu
man knowledge be set up as a rival of divine
truth—if any inability to confute the gain
saver, to instruct the ignorant, to bring back
the wandering, to support the weak and
comfort the desponding, he thought atoned
for bv a progress in science and skill in lan
guages, this is not the wisdom called for in
the text. The gospel stands ‘ not in the wis
| dom of man. but in the power of God that
i is, its subjects are of divine communication,
and not the achievement of human thought |
or study. The revelatio . being made, its j
sense is to be determined, to be opened, at and
! to be applied by the human mind with the
j help of whatever wisdom it can obtain. Hut
j let not the means be substituted as the ground
jon which they are to work. Let not that
; species of knowledge, winch should derive its
importance from its being subservient to one
! of a higher kind, be admitted as a dispensa
; tiori from the main object.— Bp. White.
OWE NO MAN.
This may be bad poetry, but, depend upon
| it, it is oxceilent sense. It is an old saying,
1 that the debtor is a slave to the creditor. II
iso, hail toe world enter into voiuntry servi-i
i tude. The universal rage to buy on credit is!
; a serious evil in this country. Many a man is!
, ruined entirely hy ir.
Many a man goes into a store for a single!
! article. Looking around, twenty things strike!
ins eye; he has no money, but buys on credit.!
Foolish man! Pay day must come, and ten
chances to one, it finds you unprepared to j
j meet it. Tell tne, ye who have experienced j
it, did the pleasure of possessing the article,!
: bear anv proportion to the pain of being call j
eu on to pay far it when you had it not in
your power ?
: A few rules, well kept, will contribute
i much to your happiness and independence.—
i Never buy what you do not really want.—
Never buy on credit when you can possibly
do without. Take pride in being able to say,
I owe no man. Wives aresoraetimes thought
less—daughters now and then extravagant.
Many a time, when neither the wife nor the
daughter would willingly give a single pang to
the father’s bosom, they urge and leaze him
to gel articles, pleasant enough to be sure to j
possess, hut difficult for him to buy; he pur- |
chases on credit, is dunned, sued ; and many j
an hour wade wretched by their folly and im- \
prudence.
Old Robert presents his compliments to the j
ladies, and'begs they would have the good- \
ness to read the laQ eight lines once a week j
til! they get them by heart, and then act as j
their own excellent dispositions shall direct. I
Never owe your shoemaker, your tailor,
your printer, your blacksmith, or laborer. —
Besides the bad policy of keeping in debt,
it is downright injustice to those whose labor
you have received all the benefit of.
How happy the man who owes not a pound,
But lays up his fifty each year that comes round;
He fears neither con-table, sheriff, nor dun ;
To bank or to justice has never to run.
His cellar well filled. anu his pantry well stored,
He lives far mor* blest than a prince or a lord ;
Then take my advice, if a fortune you’d set,
Pay ’iff ichat you owe, and keep out of debt.

TOTAL ABSTINENCE.
A loafer whose unspeakables exhibited un
deniable marks of the encroachments of time
and the want of good housewifery, lately
called in at our office and enquired :
‘ H *tv much do you charge to put an ad
vertisement in your paper?’
‘ One dollar, sir,’ was trie answer.
‘ I want to advertise my r wife, and I thought
as I should have considerable of that business
to do, I would call and see if I could get it
done cheaper.’
‘Ah! you have several women to adver
tise ?’
4 No, hut I am going to apply for a di
vorce, and that will have to be advertised,
you know.’
‘Yes, but how long has your wife been
gone ?’
‘ Ever since last May.’
‘ But it requires wilful absence for three
years, to sustain a petition for a divorce.’
‘Does it?’ said the fellow, and his lips
dropped; he crammed his hands into his
trousers, shook his head and muttered,
‘How’s that, mister?’ said he, ‘Did you
say total abstinence for three years r’
‘ Exactly.’
‘ Well then I gneas I’ll wait a spell!’
And he marvelled off.
Sorrows will come. —Adversity is capricious
in its tiroes and seasons; hut its visitations,
sooner or later, never fail. In some, it over
whelms the first hope's oflite, so that they no
sooner begin to taste felicity in prospect, than
they are crossed with hopeless disappoint
ment; others it permits to advance farther,
waits till they spread the foundation of their
happiness deep and wide, that just when they
have nearly finished the superstructure, it
may overwhelm them with a more extensive
desolation. — Robert Hall.
THE MISSISSIPPI CROPS FAILING.
We copy the following gloomy intelligence
from the Natchez Courier of the 12th inst:
The statements we made in our paper of
Monday, relative to the cotton crop, was
predicated on information received last week.
\Ve learn since then, from good authority,
that the prospect is even worse than it was
then anticipated. Not only have all the
forms fallen off, but a great many of the
young bolls, and very many half grown bolls
are forced open by the drought, which don’t
yield half the usual quantity of cotton. The
northerly winds which have prevailed since
the Ist inst with the unusually cold weather
of the 2d and 3d have had effects on the plant
similar J those produced by a frost. The
leaves have all turned red, and many of them
have fallen off. Vegelatipti is entirely check
ed, and nothing shoit of a week’s rain can
re?uscitate the plant. It is doubtful whether
a rain now would benefit the crop; for it is
mo late for the fruit of the second growth,
even should the fall be a late one. But at
present there is every indication of a long,
protracted drought, and our planters must he
content with very short crops. Ii is the pre
vailing opinion at present that they will be
shorter (acre for acre) than in any previous
year, since the period of ihe rot.
This information we obtain from some of
our most experienced planters in this neigh
borhood, hut would he glad to learn that it is
applicable only to this county. We fear,
however, it is strictly true, in relation to all
the upland cotton in tnis state. ‘Fhe earlier
information is obtained on this subject, the
better for all concerned—holders of stocks in
Europe, as well as growers in Ameriea. A
continuance of the present drought, for a week
longer, would make the crops of this county
tire shortest ever produced. Many of our
p’an'ers would now be willing to compound
for one-third less than they raised last year;
and there is every reason at present to appre
hend a continuance of the drought for a fort
night or more.
Indians. — We are happy to learn that a de
tachment of Capt. Rowel’s company of Flo
rida militia, on the 11th inst. while on a scout
near the mouth of the Ocilla, suprised Tiger
‘fail’s camp and fired into it. The warriors j
tied on their ponies and our men being on foot
could not overtake them. The detatchment
consisted of sixteen men, the Indians supposed ;
about 22. Several warriors were wounded
and two squaws taken prisoners, both were
mortaly wounded and died soon after. The
baggage of the Indians was captured. The
troops returned to Camp Taylor, when Mai.
J. L. Taylor recommenced tiie pursuit with
a sufficient company of mounted Volunteers.
He has not since been heard from, but from
his activity and energy we anticipate a good |
account. — Floridian.
Fire. —On Thursday night last, the dwel
ling house of Mr. George Stewart, Commis
sion Merchant, in this place, was consumed
by fire. The premises were situated in the
Northern extension, reserved for private
dwellings, where the lots are large, and for
tunately no further injury was done. Nearly
all the furniture was destroyed. The fire is
supposed to have communicated from a cuok
! ing stove in the kitchen, which was attached |
to the house. This is the most serious loss j
hy fire, that our city has ever sustained.— St.
Joseph Times.

OBITUARY.
‘ The young, the beautiful, they too must die.’
The flower puts forth its budding with promise, but
ere the bloom is perfected, a blightit g dew withers
and kills it. The grass grows green, lovely and ver
dant in the morning, but lies scentless and withered at
noon. The dove flies cheerful from her window, but
before her destination be reached, the fowler’s shot
hath arrested forever the flight of that innocent bird.
And what is there iu all nature that doth not die ?
Animate and inanimate, every object shrinks at the
touch of death, and loses its vitality. But such is the
proneness of the human heart to hang ail its affections
upon the green bough of hope, that when one looks
upon the flush and beauty of youth, it is hard to real
ise, that so much of freshness and bloom can die
sink down into the tomb—moulder away to dust !
Not one thought of death or decay was mingled with
the arrival of Miss Ann Ives in this city, as she was
greeted by her sisters and folded in their fond em
brace. Born in a northern clime, where roseate
health sits on almost every cheek, she brought with
her to this country the bloom of hej native mountains.
In her was seen a picture of health, whose every linea
ment shed out a bright and cheering ray of hope over
the prospective path of life. But, ah ! ye little birds,
who chant your sweetest songs around the path of
maiden innocence, be hushed your every note ; and
youth and beauty, pause ye, amid the whirl of life, and
look upon this fair and rosy girl, and see her die I
But eighteen bland and peaceful summers had breath
ed their soft winds on her brow, when death announced
his claim upon her, and plucked the roses from her
cheek, and took her to his cold, sepulchral home I
She died on Friday m .rning, the 14th inst., at the re
sidence of Henry Hall, Esq., aged eighteen.
‘ So fades the lovely, blooming flower.’

A CARD.
subscriber respectfully informs the citizens
JK. of this place, that he will take charge of PIANO
FORTES by the year. It is well known that fre- j
quet tuning alone can save an instrument from early
deterioration ; and that playing on a bad tuned Piano
F rte destroys or vitiates the ear of the performer.—
To obviate those difficulties the subscriber proposes to
tune an instrument, which shall be given to his charge,
six times a year, (once • very two months.) His terms
will be §lO per annum, five payable at the first, and
five at the fourth tuning. Application to be made at
Messrs. Plant & Norton’s Book Store.

for sale, ruussell co., ala.
THE Commissioners chosen to lay off ami esta
blish a county village at the above named
“’id offer for sale to the highest bidder, on Monday,
the 15:hof OCTOBER next,a number of LOTS of
various sizes, from one half to four acres, to suit pur
chasers, &c.
This contemplated village is situated on the main I
road from Girard to West Point, alout midway be- i
tween the two points. It is in a high and healthy !
country, abounding with fine springs and rivulets of;
the purest kind. The contiguous country is of the i
most fertile soli, io ided with a heavy growth of excel- ‘
lent timber for building, and very convenient to two
valuable Saw Mills now in successful operation ; so j
that any bill of lumber may be furnished at the shoit- i
est notice. We think we hazard nothing when we j
say, that am gentlemen who may wish to retire from
acitv or old settled country, for health, pleasure, &c., ,
could not be disappointed should they settle at this ■
site; and as a place of business, either of a Mercan-!
tile or Mechanical nature, we know not why it should I
be surpassed by any settlement in the up country.
From all these advantages combin'd, we flatter
ourselves that our proposals will meet the hearty ap
probation of a liberal public, so that we may see our
village rise to honor and prosperity, and our children
to knowledge and usefulness, being the results of a
well organized Academy. So call and see.
Terms — A credit will be given until the 25th De
cember next, for one half the purchase money ; the
other halfnayable ‘2sth December, 1539 for approved
