The 1 cries of the old woman, whom he had induced ^ f to go out with him into the yard caused a little j 1 girl to run out, when she saw him astride of the F parent who had given him birth, and with a ! 6 mother's tender love reared him and followed j J him throngh life, beating her on the face with j c a brick. The girl ran for help a distance of a 1 aqaarterof a mile; when she returned with 1 r 3 I ? kwvo of nf i ^ omcrs, iney iounu nun sianuiug uh u?. un nsv j the mangled corpse, with a pipe in his mouth, . s and stamping the face with theheel of iiis boot, t Drunkard beware.

Editor : i Certain statements having appeared in the ^ Times &, Gazette " relative to the Theolo- , gical Seminary in Columbia, which are wholly erroneous and are likely to be injurious, it is ; deemed proper to lay before the public the following authentic information on the sub? t jeet. . ; t During the last year, seventeen students . belonged to the Seminary, fourteen of whom were natives of South Carolina and Georgia, .and THREE natives of the Northern States. At present, the number of students is mix. < ty, of whom thirteen arc natives of South 1 s Carolina and Georgia, five natives of the ; c Northern States,?one of the Western States, t and one of Canada. 2 Of the seven last mentioned, only ONE ! came to this Institution from the North. But t he teas not sent here by Abolitionists ; for he is ( not only opposed to them in principle and fa- I vorable to Southern Institutions, but lie is preparing to leave all that he holds dear i:i ( tliis land, that he may spend his days on hca- 1 then shores, With regard to the rest, they [ came tons from the bosoms of Southern fanvi- > c lies, from Southern Academies and Colleges, from communities violently opposed to the ' f schemes of Abolitionists, and thev came re- , I commended either by Southern Presbyteries f or Southern wen. They have never been a charged with entertaining sentiments favorable to Abolition, and inimical to the South.? ( They now authorize us "to contradict all the statements which have been made < against them; and further say, that they con- . .sider their present residence here, together t; -with their former residence (in most instances d for several years) in this and other parts of, b the South, a sufficient evidence of their friend-! V Iv regard to Southern institutions." ! 1 i In offbring to the public this brief statement < of the numbers and sentiments of the North- c crn Students, we do not dose* to enter into ^ any controversy, but simply to disabuse that a juiblic of any erroneous impressions which \ they may have received with regard to the ; Seminary, by a presentation of pacts. | v In behalf of the Southern Students, D. McNeill Turner, Charleston, S. C. t Edwin Cater, Pendleton, <S. ('. ? John Winn, Liberty county, Ga. Oglethorpe Unite, .hj.?We are truly sorry to learn by the following article, copied from the Charleston Courier, that this promising ; I nstitution has sustained a verr severe loss by r W ' jo burning of oglethorpe universiy. i 0 1 We have been favored with the following of a letter to a gentleman, in this City, from !" his son, dated Mil^edgeville, (Ceo.) Jan. 19. * - v ip ?i fx % i i_ it * ...l.'ia ^ About iiau past y o ciock uns mornuig, wuuc . we were in school, the Steward's Hall, where we board took fire, and in less than one hour | 0 the whole building was in ruins; by which | 0 about 60 students have been deprived of a 1 ? home, ajnd all their clothes, &c. When wc , heard the alarm wfh rushed out of school, and , found the Hall in a blaze. The building was shaped like a T, and took fire in the centre, so ? that it spread both ways; and by t he time we :, got there, there was no chance of getting any , tfiing out of our rooms; and so the whole was J consumed, with the exception of a small part. , ot the furniture, and a few of the boy's trunks' The public here are all enlisted in our be. v halt and the houses of the City are thrown ; open for our reception. All the carpenters ' 8 and masons of Miliedgeville, arc going up to j c Midway, to work, to-morrow, so that we will . not be obliged to go home. Mr. Stubba,thc 11 Steward'sloss,is great?about $44)00or #5,- 4 a OOO. The building, which was owned by the ! P trustees, cost $12,000. Total loss, from 20 to , ? 325,000." I J,1 The following we copy from the Columbia } Telescope, where it is credited to a Boston pa- jj Per:? Jfc "Lixvtics ix New Hampshire. It has 1 been ascertained from actual returns made to (I the Legislature of New Hampshire, that there i are now within that State at least four liun- j t dred lunatics! Of these about one hundred 11 are kept in ciose confinement?some in jails j and prisons?some in cellars and garrets? f 4 some in outhouses or barns, and cages,?and j 2 very many in chains. The condition of these ' poor wretches is horrible almost beyond des- 5 cpiption. Feared and abhorred as if they c were wild beasts aud demons; shunned as if n they were a reproach; they are shut out from p the pale of human sympathy, and treated as li if destitute of human feelings. The Nashua r Gazette gives us particularsrelativetothe inhu- j: man treatment of some of these miserable creatures, a few specimens of which we subjoin. There is a woman now living within a few 1 miles of Dunstable, who has been confined 25 ? years in a narrow box or cage, chained to the fioor without chair or table, or even a bed, and , 1 never once leaving her place of confinement 11 in all this long }>eriod. t A married lv-m::!e in a neighboring county t r W33 confined bv ijcr husband in ait lin- j I inished part of his dwelling house during the j evcrest part of the winter ot 1834. She; ras allowed no fire to warm and little clothing { o protect her from the inclemencies of tho eason. The nipping winter blast eddied hrough her apartment, and the snow drifted ri at every crevice. Here she remained, ailing upon every passer by for relief in most liteous tones, until her hands and feet were j rozen to an alarming extent, and the neigh- j iors interfered to preserve her life. At their j intreaty she was removed, and chained in a . orner of the kitchen, where she died during | he last winter, without medical attendance? | vithout nursing or assistance?unpitied even ipon her death bed ! An insane pauper in this town is now conined in a dungeon built in the cellar of his ;eeper, from whom he formerly escaped, was mrsued, brought back, and placed there for i lafe keeping. Shut up in darkness, he be- j :ame frantic, as well he might, and no one j lared approach him. They fastened up every | >utlet of escape, and herg for two years has he >een imprisoned, without fire, without clothng, and no human eye has seen him ! A rough is placed to receive his food, and here le is fed daily, like the very a wine! Is not uch a picture too painful even for imagina ion ! These facts speak volumes for the bene *oence and wisdom of the legislature of our >wn State, in providing an Asylum for this the \ nost pitiable class of the community. Who vith a human heart, (tosay nothing of hearts oftened by the influences of the Gospel,) can, ipon reading the above, begrudge the money : vpended upon this work of benevolence. If j Northern fanatics were really influenced, as hey vainly delude themselves with a belief i hey are, bv a spirit of benevolence, they ) vould expend their thousands upon the ae- i ual suffering in their midst, in preference to , ho fancied suffering of those so far removed roin them.

Correspondence of the Baltimore Cronicle. Frederick, Jan. 17. I Santa Anna is with us. He made a for- j rial visit to Gen.

It appears that the Mexican chief iwes much of the lenity shown him by the I'exian authorities to the hind officers of Ma:>r General Gaines, who in letters addressed i o Houston, Lainar, and other distinguished I r?cn of that incipient republic, suggested the 1 doption of a magnanimous course of conduct j awards the fallen chief, and in the clemency f honorable victory to merge the recollections j f the Alamo.
