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. For the Sentinel ami Herald. 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. LOVICK PIERCE, Agent. Macon, Sept. 18. CO” Editors sis papers in Alabama, Missis j sippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida, : and Georgia, friendly to the cause of Female | education, will oblige us by publishing the ; above notice, and making such editorial re ! marks as may tend to call the attention of the ; people of the South and West to this institu tion. 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. From the Maumee City Express. 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. The following persons have kindly con sented to act as Agents for the Sentinel and ! Herald : Col. C.

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.’ COLUMBUS PRICES CURRENT.

Columbus, Sept. 26, 1838. 34 6t FIFTY-ONE NEGROES FOR SALE. Y HXHE subscriber will expose to public sale, on the J!_ 17th day of OCTOBER next, without reserve, to the highest bidder, that well known and valuable tract of land, known by the Poplar Corner, containing 1280 acres of land. The section lying west of the Middle Cowagee has about 150 acres of cleared land on it; and the greater part of that the best quality hem lock land, with comfortable negro houses, and many other necessary buildings on it. This section of land possesses many qualities to make it more valuable than any and in that section of country. It has five or six good springs in the farm, two small creeks that run through it that never fait to have tunning water,and a most beautiful sand hill, with grst rate well water on i’ that will never fail to be good, lies beautiful and rich. The other section, lying east of the creek, has consi i derable improvement on it, and one of the half sections j is, without doubt, the richest land on the Cowagee j creek. This section will be offered by the half section or the section, as the purchasers may wish on the day of sale. A! ;o, will be sold, to the highest bidder, on the same day, fiftv-one likely NEGROES. Among them are some of the most valuable servants in the state ; two j Blacksmiths, two or three first rate Cooks, and several i house servants; 1500 or 2000 bushels corn, sortie foi i tier. 100 head of hogs, 30 head of cattle ; mules, horses, j i wagons, and many oili r articles too tedious to men ion.

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.
