Commencement of the Georgia Female College. The public Exercises of the Baptist College, loca ted in Madison, came off lest week, eommencing on, Tuesday the 28th ult., aud concluding on Thursday the 80th.. The time having been changed from the Summer to Fall. We had the pleasure of hearing the examinations of Tuesday afternoon, and wre highly entertained ; th* intimate acquaintance *x hibited by the young ladies of the Junior Claa*. with the solution of Algebraic problems, was truly admirable, their demonstrations were perspicuous, and their figuring on the Board neatly executed. The Senior Class in Astronomy displayed consid erable knowledge of the principles of Astronomical science, and reflected much credit upon themselves and their teachers Prof. Loud exhibited Eclipses projected by the young ladles, and among them was the recent Lunar Eclipse, and calculated by different members of the class for different latitudes. The thorough course of training through which the young ladies of this institution nro carried by their able, efficient and faithful instructor*; ia a sufficient guarranty to the assertion that all the examinations were credit® le. On Wednesday morning the members of the Ju nior Class presented themselves with Compositions in hand to entertain the audience with an exhibi tion of their mental culture, powers of mind, and knowledge of the elements of Rhetorical excellence. It bring inconsistent with our notions of prudence to specify in noticing such exhibition, we forbear doing so, and beg leave to bestow a tribute of praise to each member, for the thoughts aril elevated sentiments contained in their Compositions, and for the clear and distinct tone in which they were delivered. In the evening at 7 o’clock, commenced the regu lar anual Concert. The house was filfod to over flowing with souls eager to drink in “music’s vo iumptuous swell.’’ Many choice and beautiful se lections from the most reputed musics! authors were executed with considerable skill and effect, and were received with groat applause by the audience. The Concert augmented the favorable impressions heretofore entertained towards the Prof, of music. Our mind was wholly absoihod in the performance of a Solo by little ilmi* Elisa Peeples, she being too small to reach the keys of the piano when sitting stood on her feet, and executed the “ Ocean Wave Schottmh,” with a degree of skill truly astonishing; she is seven years of ago; wo estimated her valve at tirenty tli-ounand dollar*. We would advise the Board of Trustees on all such occasions to demand the services of the Town Mar shal as his legitimate duty to suppress disorder. Thursday morning the Senior Exhibition came off. The Class though few in number, supplied the deficiency in quality; tbeir Essays would have done credit to older heads. In view of such mani festations of female genius we rejoice in the rapid progress of mind, and in our female Colleges and Schools we recognize the burning lights which are fast dissipating the Cimmerian darkness which has so long shrouded the female mind in the mazes of ignorance. President Brown delivered to the Grad uating Class the regular Diplomas, and in addition to them, certificates to the effect that they had pros ecuted their studies a month or two after they were, according to the time required regular graduates of the College. lie accompanied those certificates with a brilliant and touching address to the young ladies, and cited them to one of their predecessors, as a model worthy of imitation, who has consecrated her self to the service of her Creator in endeavoring to extend His Kingdom into heathen lands. In the afternoon, Rev. A. T. Spalding delivered a chaste ;,nd beautiful Address to the Melpomenean Society , upon “Mythology a s linked with religion.'’ This Society is an organization among the young ladies of the College for their mutual intellectual improve ment, and we deem the enterprise worthy pfencour- agement. The young ladies in this Institution have an op portunity afforded thorn for learning the arts of Wax uark and Painting. We saw exhibitions of their genins in each of these Sciences, and considered them superior to anything of the kind wo had ever seen. Fruits resembled the products of Nature so much as to put the teeth on edge to bite them; like Halleck, “tee could not spare the luxury of believ ing that all things beautiful are what they seem.” The instructress in the fine art of Painting posseses superior abilities, many of her specimens of land scape pinti"g, mountain scenery, &c., are calcula ted to fill the bosom of every individual of aesthetic temperament with admiration. The Georgia Female College Is too well known to require commendation at our hands. The time of holding it* Commencement Exorcise-s ia changed to July again, the former period. Rev. Carlos W. Stephens has been elected to the Professorship of Belles Lettres, and wiilentor upon the duties of his office with the next Term. Complimentary Resolutions. Pfnfield, Ga., Get. 18th, 155(3. At a meeting of the Students of Mercer Universi ty, held this day in the College Building, Mr. I. A. Wilson, of Talbot ton, was called to the Chair, and T. W. Davits, of Alabama, appointed Secretary. On motion the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas, the Itov. N. M. Crawford, D.

Resolved, That in his departure the University loses a faithful officer who has long supported it by hi* extensive influence and able services, and that we are deprived of a Jvienel, whose place it will be hard to supply. Reached, That vre most cordially recommend Dr. Crawford to the Students with whom he is soon to be connected, and assure tin m that will find in him an accomplished scholar and an obliging officer; and we congratulate all who may have the privilege of of associating with him, on the accession to their cir cle of one distinguished no less for the amenities and virtue of private life, than for the more striking qual ities, that fit him for pubi c station. Readied, That a copy of these resolutions be pre sented to Dr. and that they be published in the Crusader and Index, and that the Mississippi true Witness be requested to copy the same. I. A.

A most Extraordinary Cure effeotefl by Dr. BTLane’s Celebrated Vermifuge. Prepared by Fleming Bros., of Pittsburgh. JSew York, March 19, 1851.—This is to certify that I have been troubled for almost four years with a choking sensation, sometimes so bad as almost to suffocate me; I employed two regular physicians, but to no purpose. I was then persuaded to try a. bottle Oi Dr. .M Lane s Celebrated Vermifuge, prepared-by k leming Bros., Pittsburg. I took two teaspoonsful at one dose. It to opera*.-, when it made thorough work. (I had a regular worm factory within me.) 1 should judge it brought away from me some.two quarts of wormy; they had the appear ance of having bursted: J took the remaincr of the bottle at two doses. The effect was, it brought away about one quart more, all chopped to pieces. 1 now feel like a different person. Ihe above is from a widow lady, forty-six years of ago, resident of this city.

Hay- Dear Sir—Through me ypu may confidently recom mend the Oxygenated Bitters, as the best, if not the only medicine that will cure Dyspepsia. I suffered for more than sixteen years as only a dyspeptic can suffer, tried numerous medicines, and the skill of many physicians, but found no permanent relief un til I obtained from you the above Bitters.

We have ueed thearticle and found it valuabie. The sale of this article in the United States is beyond all precedent, as the books of tire office will show.—Cincinnati Commercial. Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer.—We first heard of this medicine during a visit to the New England States, and being struck with the novelty of the title, were induced to make some inquiry about it; and we were surprised to learn that it was kept constantly in the houses of most of the inhabitants of the cities and villages where we stopped, to be used in cases of sudden attacks of pain, burns, scalds, &e., and we heard it spoken of in terms of high commendation, both by druggists and physicians.—[Philadelphia Eagle. Perry Davis’ Pain Kilter.—lt ia a real pleasure to us to speak favorably of this article known almost universally to boa good and safe remedy for burns and other pains of the body. It is valuable not only for colds in the winter, but for various summer com plaints, and should be in every family. Tho casual ty which demands it, may come unawares —Chris tian Advocate. Valuable Medicine.—The sale of that remarkable and truly valuable preparation, Perry Davis’ Pain Kiilcr, is constantly and rapidly increasing. During the past year, the demand for this great remedy has been altogether unprecedented. Scarcely a week passes by, during which we do not hear of some re markable cure having been performed, within the circle of our acquaintance, by the use of “Perry Da vis’ Pain Killer.”—Prov. Gen. Adv. 44 Sold by all Dealers in Family Medicines. Liberalty of Physicians. It has always been said that physicians would dis parage any reniody, however valuable, which they did net originate themselves. This has been dispro ven by their liberal course towards Dr. J. 0. Ayer’s preparations. They have adopted (hem into gener al use in their practice, which shows a willingness to countenance articles that have intrinsic merits which deserve their attention. This does the learned pro fession great credit, and effectually contradicts the prevalent erroneous notion that their opposition to proprietary remedies is based in their interest to dis card them. We have always had confidence in the honorable motives of our medical men, and are glad to find it sustained by the liberal welcome they ac cord to Such remedies as Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral and Cathartic Pilis, even though they are not ordered in the books, but are made known to the people through the newspapers.—Now Orleans Delta.

The writer was an eve witness of her suffering, which was long and painful, she was taken sick about the 20th of August, her disease was Typhoid Fever.— She struggled with the disease until the 28th Oct., 10 minutes before 2 o’clock in the morning, when the spirit was released from the body and took its flight from earth to Heaven. (I think) she was in the 48th year of her age, and had been a member of the Presbyterian Church for nearly twenty years; and when-Death criled, she was not afraid to meet him—she was cairn and patient amid all the suffer ings of the body. She has left a disconsolate hus band, one daughter, four sons, an aged father, and many friends to mourn. But they sorrow not as those without hope. She requested them to meet her in Heaven.

To a man wishing to engage in the lumber business, this place offers rare inducements, as the greater portion of it Is heavily timbered pine land, with a good market for all the lumber that can be sawed.

If built the place would be almost in valuable. There is, already, a good saw mill on the premises, with sufficient water power, winter and summer, and by repairing the dam the purchaser can commence operations immediately- a good farm can be carried on at the same time, as the tract con tains about 250 acres of excellent oak and hickory land, all of which arc uncleared, lie well and well wa tered.
