TO THE PUBLIC.
' ■ ARE FACULTY oftho College would re
« respectfully no*i y the parents guardians
of the students that the conflagration of the new
building, however serious, will not interfere in
the smallest degree with the regular duties of
the College. '1 he course of instruction will not
be affected, as every accommodation will be rea
dyfor the students by the first of January. The
Library it is true has been dost roved, but we feel
confident from the munificence of the Legislatu
re that the loss will be so far repaired bv the open
ing of the next term, as to prevent any injury
arising from its destruction. The Mathematical
instru- inents can be easily replaced. • The fine
Philosophical AparatUß 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 voung
men, no difficulty will exist, as the old building
hitherto devoted to the residence of the two low
er clases. is uninjured, will consequently con
tain all who now compose these clases, or who
inay come by the commencement of the next
ter.n The two upper classes will be accommo
dated with ooging and study rooms in private
families or the boarding houses in town, A that
without anv additional charge, until the College
building sha., oe repaired.
The Faculty therefore trust, 4' with full con
fidence that the credit of the Institution with the
| Public, will not be din inished The Faculty
i therefore canfide in the return of all the students

IN ordinary times it mightiperhapsbo superflu

a suspension of the peace, safety and happiness

moral hon.- tv demnnd a suecinot declaration
of principles and views; that a clear iine ot de
marcation may bo traced between tho friends of
peace and rational freedom and the advocates of
anarchy and carnage
The Telegraph will, as it has hitherto done,
vindicate personal and political liberty ao fares
compatible ,ith private happiness and public:
safety- It will therefore cling to the opinion of
the fathers ofthe revolution, as comprised in
the Declaration of Independence and the Con
stitution of the United States; and it holds it t»
be a truth almost intuitive, that on the most vi

ral and state branches of our government to
their respective provinces, depend the benign
operations of those opinions, tho virtue of the
man, tho franchise of the citizen, and the inter
nal peace and external safety ofthe country.
Under these impressions, the Telegraph ap
regards the causes of excitement in tho South,
considers the in lsdiction of every state over
her chattered limits to belong exclusively to her
own tribunals, and overy interference with it
either by the Federal Judiciary or by congress
to be a palpable usurpation that ought to b©-
resisted; but the tariff though injudicious in.
manvofits provisions and needing gcnrralre
vision to adapt it to the interest ofthe country, it
views as being strictly within tbe power with,
which congress is invested; and believes that in
ternal improvement in its existing shape, to bo
r ather an abuse of legitimate authority I han 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
Telegraph acknowledges that the Southern
pe- pie have just grounds for ceniplaint and re
monstrance, in w*. ich it unites, but nono for se
dition or revolution; and contends that the ad
vocates of the latior measures, whether under
the name ofnuliificrs or conventionisis, are in
fact adverse to the peace and prosperity of ou;
country and inimical to the morals and happi
ness of its citizens.
It will likewise be inferred, and that truly,
that the Telegraph supports the re-election of
Andrew Jackson to the Presidency, and co-ope--
rates in every measure it deems just and salu
tary with his primitive friends in Georgia
In the prosecution ofthe foregoing objects,
the Telegraph is aided by Archibald Camp
