Papers ol the State will please Copy.Ga. Military Institute, May 7, 1862. Editors Confederacy —Gentlemen : It is very generally reported,I understand, that the Georgia Military Institute has suspended, or is about to suspend, its exercises. This report is icithout the shadow of a foundation. When Georgia is subjugated, her Military School will bo closed; but so long as Georgia stands erect, and maintains her sovereignty, her Military School will be kept open, in order that her sons may have an opportunity to qualify themselves for meeting her foes—to qualify themselves for the post of henor, of danger, of usefulness and of duty.A serious disturbance has arisen among the Cadets, brought about by a combination among them to leave the Institute, with or without the consent of Parents or Guardians, and in defiance of the Regulations. They were remonstrated, and urged to wait until j they could get the consent of their Parents or j Guardians to resign, a id so leave the Institute in a regular and creditable manner. Some heeded, but many d;d not.Number Dismissed,.....................“ Resigned,'* Deserted,Still in Institute,...19188Very Respectfully,Your Ob t Serv't,JOHN M. RICHARDSON, Acting Superintendent G.
