G eorgia Military Institute.

We were called away from the Court House
last Wednesday just before Coy. Smith made
his speech, but we understand that the Cover
nor set himself right before our people in regard
to the Georgia Military Institute bill. His re-
fusal to sign the bill was not because OF the ex-
istence of antipathy or enmity, but it was ow
ing TO disappointment that the bill making it
a State Institution did not pass with a liberal
appropriation. He stated that he heartily and
earnestly desired the re. establishment and en-
dowment of this institution and that his person
al and official influence would be used to that
end. A recent act Of Congress gives to this
State two million dollars Tor educational pur
poses, and, we are lead to believe, that Mariet-
Ia will come in for a large share Of this fund,
Governor Smith having intimated that he will
favor the distribution Of liberal portion in
that way. So after all, the noble work Of Mer-
GER Anderson, Phillips, and its host Of other
friends, may ultimately be crowned with sue
cess The JOURNAL. will, in the future, as in
the past, stand by Marietta and her institutions
with unfaltsring devotion, maintaining that
which is right aud demanding what is due.
