A r"f>ne strange as any fouoded on fiction occurred in New Orleans on the 3d. inst. It appears that a young Spaniard was J lying in the last stages of yellow fevpr. next door to the printing office of Mr. G? in Chnrtres street. The physician Dr. B., was sent for, but before his arrival, the young mnn had ceased to live, according to the opinions of those in the house, bo that when he arrived he found his pa . tient covered with a white linen, and reported as dead. Tnat very eve ting they washed and cleansed the young man, and having put on bis burial dress, they laid him on his hed until the morning.? In the morning a coffin was got, and all the necessary preparations were made. He was then taken and put in his coffin, hut no sooner was he dropped in it than he jum|?ed up and nsked where they were going to place him.

Barnwell, as President of this In. stit itio i, is we doubt not deeplyand universally felt. The Hourislisng state of the College during hi* administration, immediately succeeding too, as it did, such a gloomy period in its history, the place lie had gained in the respect and affections of the Students, the confidence ho had inspired in the parents and guardians, all *l>eak a language not to be misunderstood ; and we, in common with other,sympathies in the lass which the State has s istaincd. Ii is quite common amcng the great majority of the community to suppose that tliev have very litle interest in the conduct or management of the College, unless they have either sons or wards which they are educating, or intend to educate there. But this is a mistaken idea. The South Carolina College is a public I'isiution?the great fountain of learning from which has emanated ant! from wuich is still to be executed, the miiiih which are to control the State in all its departments, social and legislative. The young men who are educated there, are to he dispersed throughout the State, and will g.ve tone and character to the public opinion of the commonwealth. The complexion which this public opinion assumes, will greatly depend upon those who have the control of the College, and hence, the interest which every Carolinian has in the judicious selection of a presiding officer of an institution of such mighty influence?the province of which is to mould the principles and characters of the men who are to be out future governors and law.givers. Feeling as we do. a deep interest in the success of this noble institution, and ? ? ? ?.?1.4 ...U!AU Claiming i n; i igui, ivuit'i c?ci^ i/uuicii has, of making suggestions in relation to lis offices, we take this occasion to mentiou the name of an individual, who, if Ive can he induced to accept the office, will t wifisentJy sustain the interests, the dignity afcd purify of the College. We allude to the Hon. John JJellon O'Neal, an up. right Judge, a pure .Patriot an honest and consistent Christian. Judge O'Neal is the man of all others, with;'i our knowledge, best calculated to fill i.his high responsible station?possessingsou.nd intelligence and good sense, firmness of prin- | ciplennd sincerity of feeding, dignity of! person, gentleness of manners, and of spotless moral character. From under, his administration we might expect an army of graduates mingling with their fel. low citizens in e\erv portion of the State, which, in a few years would work a rnigh ty and glorious moral revolution among aur people. We invite public attention to this sng. geslion, and especially would we ask the Trustees of the College, to give it their vwuoiutl (U1UIU ixterr*ttvu discovery in tiib east* The hook of Dr. Grant, just published, will furnish the reading public with mat. ler of peculiar interest.

Parents c< had, no doubt, long before this been oc- 1 ol oasionally murdered lor the sake of their / di young children, in thai and in oiher parts J tl i f India where children are aUotned t" be \ n< bought and sold; but we have no reason to ! hi j believe that there was, before that time, ai i any gang, in that or in any other part of c< Uidia, that followed this system of mur. p< deric'ST indigent and helpless parents for pi the sak'E of their children as an exclusive ju | trade. We have reason to believe that it ai I has not yet extended bevond the Upper u I Doonb, the D'df.j territories, and the Ra- hi Ijpootana and AIwar states : and the able ai i and successful exertions of Lieutenant d\ I Mills have given me reason to hope that ? j w e shall very soon, if well supported and . . . i , .1 .?. L _ _LI_ Of assisted t)V me local autnoriries, ne aoie : * i I to suppress t?i*? system where it has pre- I vailed, and effectually prevent its spreading to other parts. It will he seen that these gangs always select for their victims n the parents and grown-up children ofdis- e3 tressed families, who have been driven to j( emigration by famine or domestic misfof. tunes. Brinjarahs, who all over India UJ trade in children thai have been stolen q from their parents, and in prostitutes? w who purchase those thai are good looking a< wherever they can get them?will give w more for those whose parents are certified (j, to be dead than for any others, because g they have less apprehension of such chil- (j dren ever absconding in search of them, or e: being reclaimed by them. In seasons of p? great and general calamity, like those by which Upper India has been for some (j vears oast afflicted, great numbers of the most respectable fumilies, of all castes, w have been reduced to indigence, and obli. c| ged to emigrate ; and the children of par. c, ents of this description, who have been hi taken great care of and sheltered from the jyj sun, and who arc, in consequence, com- jr monk very fair, are those most sought 0| after bv these murderers. In such seasons of calamity, the per. t.i mission to purchase andsell children saves, s| no doubt, a great number from starva. w tion; bin1 a* seasons, happily, even tc in India, return, after long intervals, and e< as this perin^8'on's liable to foster such r| horrible crimed ** ?r? here exposed, it [ had perhaps hetu?-f f>e withheld altogether. {y It is, I believe, understood, where such I & purchases of children are permitted, that, I m 1 _i .i 11./* o 7i\ nf'm?ltirilv. th*>v ! vvnen mcv iuai*u mc i<r? , ...^v CI sfiall be free to go whive Jhrv please ; but who shall say into whai bands, or into Sr what country such children ' ball be trans. | \ ferred before that time corner Hindoos, i i .
