THE TORCH OF LIBERTY.
by Thom vs moore.
1 saw it all in fancy's glass—
Herself the fair, the wild magician,
That bids this splendid day dream pass,
And named each gliding uppantion.
Twas like a torch race—such as they
Os Greece performed, in ages gone,
Whun the fleet youths in long an ay,
Passed the bright torch triumphant on.
I saw the expectant nation s'and
To catch the coming flarne in turn—
I saw, from ready hand to hand,
The clear but struggling glory burn.
And, ohl their joy as it came near,
'Tv as in itself a joy to see—
While fancy whispered in my ear
"That torch they pass is liberty.'!
And each, as she receives the flame,
Lighted her altar with its ray,
Then smiling to the next who came,
Speeded on its sparkling way.
• • * • •
And fancy bid me mark where, o'er
Her altar as its (limn ascended.
Fair laurelled spirits seemed to soar,
Who thus in song their voicos blended;
“Shine, shine forever, glorious flarao,
Divinest gift of heaven to men!
From grace thy earliest splendour oorne,
To grace thy ray returns again!
"Take, freodoin! take thy radiant round;
Whon dimmed, revive—when lost return;
Till not a shrine through earth be found.
On which thy glories shall not burn!
From the New-York Evangelist.

SKETCHES OF A TRAVELLER.
AN INNOCENT MISTAKE.
In passing through a part of South Carolina,
I made a hard day’s ride, on Saturday, in order
to arrive at Union Court House, where I thought
it probable that I might have the privilege of
boaring a sermon on the Sahhath. As I emer
ged from a piece of woodland on the borders of
the ’ittlo town, just in the dimness of t wilight,
I discovered emno hundreds of horses tied to the
young persimmon trees and stinted pines which
cover an old field on the right. This appear
ance. so unexpected and novel, and especially
as no human beings were to be seen at the mo
ment. almost involuntarily promptod the inqui
ry. wliat is all this?’ 1 Conjectuie immediately
replied—for what is more prompt or rapid, in
eueli circumstances, than thought, in framing
aome theory for the purpose of solution—these
proplo aro holding a four day's meeting—or,
what is more common in this part of the coun
try' they are holding a ineoling to day, prepara
tory to the sacrament on the morrow I had
hardly woven this little web of explanation, and
it was hut a short time in the loom, when I
saw a mul itude of men and women, some on
foot and somo on horseback, in the public high
way before mo.—lndeod, as thore was a little
turn in the road. I was in tho midst of one pait
of the assembly beforo 1 was wel aware of its
existence. Some of tho men appearod to be ex
tremely busy in doing something, and the rest
equally busy in looking on; but what this some
thing was, 1 soon so nd it perfectly fruitless foi
me lo hvv a contribution upon my wits in order
to ascertain Sotno weio running with hurried
stop from place to place; others seomed te be
stooping down and looking mysteriously upon
the earth: a third class appeired to be making
figures, or tracing linns in the sand; and anoth
er 'Oast still wore employed in keeping back the
crowd, ns thev sometimes approached too near
the scene of these mystical operations The
growing darkness proba fly added, not a little to
the oToct of these things on my perceptions! I
know that gold mines were common bv the way
side, in North Carolina; but can it be possible
thought T that those people have discovered one
in this state? Or has some person fallen from his
horse, and others aro showing how the thing
happened, and pointing out the spot where he
fell; while the surgeon is performing an opera
tion on tis skull? Or, peradvenlure somebody
has been robbed and murdered here, and the liv
ing aro holding an inquest over his dead body.
At this moment an expounder, as wise at least
in this inattor. as Daniel came to my relief. A
man, frantic with anim> ’on, ran up to
jjiv vehicle, and vociferated, as fie approached
“Yon must stop, sir—you mußt slop—they aro
going to run horses here!" This announce
ment, so unexpected and so much at war with
all mv speculations, had well nigh struck me
dumb, and I had just pationee enough with tnis
instrevive herald to inquire, “where ate they go
ing to run horses?" “They are just going to
start where vou are,” was the reply. “They
must wail, then till I get by.” “No. no, they
Can’t wait,” rejoined the month-piece of the
race ground. Knowing that I was in public
highway, and not being able to discover that
thero was any thing in this business, connected
with either tariff, internal improvements or nul
lification. I ventured to remark with somewhat
of emphasis, “I can’t stop for such business as
horse racing,” and drave on. Tlio multitude
opened, with great reluctance to the right and
left—the gentlemen showering their curses
thick upon mv head, and the ladios greeting mo
with a look of ineffable pity for my want of tasto
aid gallantry—as I passed. One mao chased
my carriage, with what intent he probably could
not tell himself, and another cried out, with
stentorian lungs, “I wonder who that is?" I
could have told hint, but fearing the informrtion
would he thrown away upon him 1 said noth
ing and pursued my onward course. Before I
reached town, the chunking of hoofs, announced
the fact that the poor animals were in full ca
reor. and. in a moment, such a veil ront the air,
as 1 have been in the habit of considering the
exclusive province of the uncivilised tribes of
men to produce As my nervous system is
•nmowhat unstrung. I was compelled to tssk my
th-mghts, for a little «pace before I could set
tl<- down on the real fact in this case, that I was
actual!'' within a saw steps of the seat of justice
of one of the districts of the intelligent and pol
ished stale of Sonth-<"aro ina
Saturday Evening's Amusement.
In connexion with the above. I cannot forbear
giving von a hasty sketch of« hat followed in
rapid strides upon the heels of tin hor«e race
But it requires a psn of higher graphic powers
thin "ine, to place before you the living feature
of the scene My ow*y aim will be (ogive you
th>' si' pic facts in theca»e Ihsdjust begun
to feel myself .-onifortsblv "ituated in a public
bouse, when lhe whole contents of he race
ground were • > :p’ied i to this little village
nt streets, the taverns, the stores, and the
grogshops, wore filled In the li’Use where I
'topped, we experienced a blessed exemption
from this kind of company but on the opposite
side of tho street, were situated a large store
and a little grog shop, which gave me foil op
portunity of observing the moral effects oj horse
racing Both bill'd ngs were crowded, and mul
titudes wore walking to and fro in the street lie
fore the doo's—and such a rcene of drinking
profanenees, and contention ensued, as would
baffle all description, and as no one could fully
understand who was not an eye or a ear witness,
or who has not, sometime in his life, been pre
sent at a similar exhibition. I deliberately took
a station, for tho purpose of looking on as a
Christian observer There were probably be
tween one and two hundred men in and about
these establishments, and although I could not
positively affirm as to each individual, yet as a
body they drank and swore. Before tho assem
bly broke up which was near midnight, many
were disgracefully intoxicated, and some fought
like tigers The night was somewhat dark, but
as the doors, both of tho store and tho dram den
were open, the street in front and ever rosters
cm -d were dimly illuminated. As these works
of darkness • ent on, my mind wrought up to
the highest pitch of moral sensibility, was per
petually emplo ed in selecting metaphors and
framing expressions to describe the scene be
fore me. “What beasts?" I said to myself—but
immediately recalled the cxpress'on as contain
ing a libel upon the poor dumo tonants of the
stable and the stve “There are no such beasts
as these among quadru-eds! They are downright
savages," said I. But alas! truth and con
science replied, ‘Ye can find no snch savages
as these in the wilderness, they are the exclu
sive growth of civilized and Christians lauds ”
I stood and gazod, and meditated, in eitcocc;
and I seemed to be actually looking into hell! In
that world, the inhabitants will curse God and
war upon each other, ''gather not my soul with
sinners.”
Your readers, and especially the Chris'ians at
the North and East, will be ready to enquire, are
such scones as theso exhibited in our republic?
Are these the morals of the South? I answer
snch scenes and such morals are tho sure atten
dants of horse racing in overy latitude and every
longitude But I have one fact to disclose, in
relation to the foregoing statement, which I
hope will bo properly folt by Christians in your
section of country. 1 found on inquiry, that the
owners of both of the horses that had collected
this great congregation—larger perhaps, than
anv two preachers in the state could bring to
gether on a we k day—are Northern men. One
of them is tho owner oftho grog shop, and an
other Northern man is tho owner of ihe store
which was the head quarters of cursing and
drunkonnes ! While tho people of God at the
North are weepiag and praving over tho desola
tions of many parts of our land, and aro taking
measures to send out a healthful moral influ
ence into the valloy of the Mississippi, there is
one fact which calls for deep humiliation It is
this—mao , very many of tho advonturers from
the Northern and Eastern states .whc have re
moved to tho Sonth and West, have carried a
moral pestilence nlong with them. They are
known to have come from a land of revivals and
of religious effort, and yet they outstrip the or
dinary wicked around them They will do any
thing for munoy—sell rum—run horses—open
their room:- for gambling, and that too upon the
Sabbath—and renounce and vilify tho very land
that gave them birth and tho very churches
whero they were baptized.

TO THE PUBLIC.
*HE FACULTY oftho College would re
I respectfully’rmti y the parents A' guardians
of tho students that the conflagration of the new
building, however serious, will not interfere in
the smallest degree with tho tegular duties of
the College. The course of instruction will not
be affected, as every acco inundation will be rea
dyfor the students by the first of January. Tho
Library it is true has been destroyed, but we feel
confident from tho munificence of tho Legislatu
re that i he loss will bo so far repaired by the open
ing of the next term, as to prevent any injury
arising from its destruction. The Mathematical
instruments can be easily replaced. The fine
Philosophical Aparatus and Chemical Instru
ments a>e uninjured, and consequently full in
struction in the higher classes can be given.
As to the personal accommodation of the young
men, no difficulty will exist, as the old building
hithorto devoted to the residence of the two low
or claves,is will consequently con
tain all who now compose these clases, or who
may come by tho commencement of the next
term The two upper classes will be accommo
dated with nnging and study rooms in privato
families or the boarding houses in town, A that
without anv additional charge, until the College
building sha.. oe repaired.
The Faculty therefore trust, with full con
fidence that the credit of the Institution with the
Public, will not be diminished. The Faculty
therefore canfide in the return of all the students
on the first of Jan. next to resume their regu
ar duties. By orderofthe Faculty

MAC ON TELEGRAPH.
A WEEKLY NEWSFAPF.iI PRINTED AT MACON
GEORGIA,
And devoted to Intelligence, Commerce,
Agriculture, Science and sound
Principles.
IN ordinary times it might perhaps be superfl -.-
ous to get forth formally the political faills
of a public journal woll known fir several yearn
in most* parts oflho Slate, hot at tho pres
ent juncture in which conflicting opinions threa
ten a change in the form of our government and
a suspension of tiie peace, safety and happlnose
of society by civil war, —political candor and
moral hone ty demand a suscinet declaration
of principles and views, that a clear iine of de
marcation may be traced between the triends of
peaco and rational freedom and tho advocates of
anarchy and carnage
The Telegraph will, as it has hithorto dune,
vindicate personal ami political liberty so far as
compatible with private happiness and public
safety. It will therefore cling to the opinion of
the fathers of the revolution, as comprised it
the Declaration of Independence and the Con*
stitution of the United States; atid it holds it to
be a truth almost intuitive, that on tho most vi
gilant and of tho gone
ral and state branches of our government to
their respective provinces, depend the henigo
operations of those opinions, tho virtue of tiie
man, the franchise of the citizen, and the
nal peace and external safety of the country.
Under tho«e impressions, the Telegraph as
regards tho causes of excitement in the Booth
considers the jurisdiction rs overy state over
her chartered limits to belong exclusively to he:
own tribunals, and every interference with it
either by the Federal Judiciary or by congress
to be a palpable usurpation that ought lo bo
resisted; but the tariff though injudicious in
many of its provisions and needing general re.
vision to adapt it to ihe interest oftho country, it
views as being strictly within the power with
which congress is invested; and bclioves that in
ternal improvement in its exis'ing shape, to bo
r ather an abuse of legitimate authority than an
infraction of the constitution an evil which
the patriotism and independence of President
Jackson has gone far to remedy and which the
good sense and virtue of future congresses will
no doubt remove altogether.
It will therefore be readily perceived, that tho
Tolograph acknowledges that the Soul hern
people have just grounds for ccmplaint and r».
monstrance, in wi ich it unites, but none for so.
dition or revolutiorf; and contends that the ad
vocates of the latter measures, whether undot
the name of nullifiers or eonveationDts, are in
fact adverse to the poace and prospmiiy of our
country and inimical to the morals and happi
ness of its citizens.
It will likewise bo inferred, and that truly,
that tho Telegraph supports tlie re-election nf
Andrew Jackson to tho Presidency, and co-ope
rates in every measure it deems just and sain
tary with his primitive friends in Georgia
In the prosecution of the foregoing objects,
the Telegraph is aided by Archibald Camp

The Telegraph will shortly appear in an en
larged form and new dress. Tho terms of sub
scription are, three dollars per annum in ad
