Extract of a Letter dated, \ Washington City, Feb. 11, 1825. ( I saw this morning accidentally, a list of the places through which General * Lv Fayette proposes to pass on his South- r ern Journey. He will probably reach 1 Charleston by the 17th March. He will 1 leave this on the 24th instant. His arrival " in Savannah, is arranged to be on the 20th of March, L Augusta, - - . 23d, ! * M'urrenton, - - 24th 8 Sparta & Milledgcyille, - 25th, 1 Fort Hawkins, - . 2Gth,' 11 F trt Mitcliell, - - . 28th! Not having seen the General lately, lam potable to say positively, that, his plans are fixed, but suppose the above information is correct. 1 ’ 1 - We are happy to hear that another very 1 respectable Class is formed to attend Mr. a Stevens’ second Course of Astronomical Lectures, to commence at the Academy, to-morrow evening. His first Course, which will close on Friday evening next, 11 has, thus far, given universal satisfaction to I a numerous audience. ' WASHINGTON'S BIRTH DAY. s The committee ot arrangements have the 1 honor to announce the following order of ' the Day: 1 A procession will be formed, at the Plan- ! ter’s Hotel, at 10 o’clock, A. M. which the 1 citizens generally are invited to join. The procession will move to the Presbyterian 1 Church, where an Oration will be delivered, at 11 o’clock, by James Moore, Esq. and ' Washington’s Farewell Address will be read by Mr. T. G. Casey.

On motion of Mr, Mcr.AAE, of Dela ware, the House proceeded to consider the bill “ making further appropriation for the military service for the year 1825.” Mr. Forsyth, of Georgia, moved to re commit the bill to the Committee of Ways and Means, with instructions to-strike out the appropriation of 820,000, for the ar rearages due under the treaty with the Che rokees, of 1801, and ratified in 1824, and also the appropriation of 1000, for the annuity gilder the same treaty for the pre . uent year. On this motion, an extended debate took place, in which the motion was supported by Mr. Forsyth, and Mr. Camp bell, ot Ohio, and Mr. Wilde, of Georgia, and Opposed by Mr. Me Lane, of Delaware, Mr. Livingston, of Louisiana, Mr, Culpep per, ot N. (3. ami Mr. Ingham, of Penn sylvania. The question being taken on the amendment of Mr, Forsyth, it was negatived ayes 25, noes 90. The bill was then rea l a ■third time passed, and sent to the Senate. LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT ELECT. Mr. Webster, from the Committee ap ■ pointed for Hi at purpose, yesterday, reported, that the committee had waited on John Quin cy Adams, of Massachusetts, & had notified to him, that, in the recent election of a Pre sident of the United States, no person having received a majority of the votes of all the electors appointed, and the choice having consequently devolved upon the House ot Representatives, that House, proceeding in the manner prescribed in the Constitution, did yesterday choose him to be President of the United States, tor four years, commenc ing on the 4th day of March next. And that the Committee had received a certain answer which he presented to the House. The Com mittee also, in further performance of its duty, had given information of this election, to the President.' Gentlemen: In receiving this testimonial I from the Representatives of the People, and' States ot this Union, I am deeply sensible toj the circumstances under which it has been| given. All my Predecessors in the high station to which the favor of the House now calls me, have been honored with majorities ot the electoral voices in their primary col leges. It has been my fortune to be placed, by the divisions of sentiment prevailing among our countrymen on this occasion, in competition, friendly and honorable, with] three of my fellow citizens, all justly enjoy ing, in eminent degrees, the public favor ; & ot whose worth, talents, and services, no one entertains a higher and more respectful sense than mysell. The names of iwo of them were, in the fulfilment of the provisions of 1 the constitution, presented to the selection of the House, in concurrence with my own: names, closely associated with the glory of the nation, and one of them, further recom mended by a larger minority of the primary electoral sullrages than mine. In this state ot things, could my refusal to accept the trust thus delegated to me, give an immediate opportunity to the people to torrn and to express with a nearer approach to unanimity, the object ot their preference, I should not hesitate to decline, the accep tance of this eminent charge, and to submit tie decision ot ttiis momentous question again to their determination. Hut the con stitution itself, has not so disposed ofthe con tingency which would arise in the evenfof ry refusal ; I shall, therefore, repair to the pos asMgned me by the call of my country, signaled through her constitutional organs ; ppiessed with the magnitude of the tusk olore me, but cheered with the hope of tha generous support from my fellow citizens, which, in, the vicissitudes of a life de voted to their service, has never tailed to sustain me —confident in the trust, that the wisdom of the Legislative Councils will guide and di rect me in the path of my official duty, and relying, above all, upon the superintending Providence of that Hieing “ jn whose hand our breath is, and whose are all our ways.” Gentlemen ;,J[ pray you to n\ake accepta ble to the House, the assurance of iwy pro found gratitude for their confidence, and to"" accept yourselves my thanks for the friendly terms in which you have communicated to me their decision. ■ JOHN QUINCY ADAMS. ffaskins'lun, 10 th February, 1825. ! ’ -qOiC— We take great pleaslil-e in laying the fol lowing correspondence before our readers, as it assures us that we shall soon have the pleasure of welcoming to our state, the great t and the good La payelte. ’ Executive Department, Geo. ) / Milledgeville, Ist ‘Sept. 1825. $ Sir—Oil the first annunciation of your arrival, I bid you in the name of the people of Georgia, welcome to the U. States. Ma- “ king allowance for the claims of our sister Republics upon your time, we invite you to spend a part of the winter with us/ under n the sun of your Southern France. You H will every where see a people opening their - arms to receive you, all equal, knowing no distinction but that of public service, which in their estimates places you by the side of Washington—a people who, divided as they are about other men, unite in doing homage to the virtues of La Fayette. And who/sir,’ - can better judge those virtues, than they who in the darkest days of the Revolution 1 emulated, and are now in tiie full enjoyment ofthe fruits of them. « Y our fellow-citizen, G. M. TROUP. General La Fay cite, New-York. Washington, Jan. 19, 1825. Sir--I am penetrated with the most live- . ly feelings of gratitude for the kindness with which the citizens ot the Stale of Georgia, their Legislative Representatives, and their Chief Magistrate, have deigned to welcome my arrival to the United States, and to in vite' me to a visit so very conformable to my ' own earnest wishes. I beg your Excellen -1 cy to be the organ of my respectful and atfec- I tionate acknowledgements, and to receive my personal thanks for the kind manner in which those testimonies of esteem have been transmitted and by yourself expressed. : Anxious as lam to visit the State of Geor gia, I regret that the obligation to be at Washington on the 22d February, and at * Boston on the IT’th ot'June, in consequence ‘ of an early engagement to lay the corner > stone of the monument on Bunkers Hill, > renders it necessary to travel' with rapidity ' the 5000 miles which must be passed between those two periods. Our order ot march is j not yet settled, but a few days after my re- 1 turn from Richmond and Harrisburg, i will 1 have an understanding upon the subject with ybur Representatives in Congress. 1 Happy I will be, sir, to have it in my ' • power to find myself on the soil of the State > ot Georgia, and altho’ my visit must be ' much shorter than I would wish it, I shall be highly gratified to present to its citi ■ zens and to you, sir, the tribute of the > grateful sentiments, and ot the high respect, ; a cordial though inadequate expression of 1 which, I beg your Excellency will accept. (Signed) LA FAYEITE. 1 His Excellency, Governor Troup, of the State of Georgia. ■ Extract cf a letter from J. Elliot to Gov. ’ : Troup, dated Washington, Jan. 27th, 1825. My dear sir —The accompanying letter 1 wa » enclosed to me to day by Gen. La Fay ; ette, with a request that j would transmit it to you. lie is now on a visit to Virginia, •jbut will be in this city again within a feVv I days when he promises me he will write you >1 more satisfactorily in relation to his inten- , I ! ‘led visit to Georgia. I fear the anxiety of 1 the worthy General .to gratify ail parts of |the Unionbya visit, has induced him to mi lder take more than he can accomplish within | tlie time he has allotted for that purpose.— .j He intends to visit every Statdin the Un- S ion, passing from hence through the Southern I,am!
