.yian of truth, poor, but honest and upright; a detcriplion ol char acter, applicable to a large class ot the inhabitants of this and other pans ol our western border, in whom I have usual!)' found as mucn devotion to truth, as in any other class of American cil izens. Joseph Marshall is personally belter known to me. He is a Creek hall breed, and is deemed to be a good Interpreter ; and however defective, as 1 know he is, in education, and relined moral sentiments, such as haveobtaine.l the sanction of civilized society, I have no doubt that he is one of the most upright Chiefs that ever belonged to the little treaty-making party, Neither of these meu, ,Kdwards or Marshall, appeared to me at all qualifle J for what you denounce their certificate to be the most daring effort that ever was attempted by malignant villainy.”—- Their statements were simple and apparently unprejudiced and unimpassioned. They ware made alter o the principal business of the Council hud been brought to u close, and in the presence of many of the respectable ciuzous of Hike county. Convinced of the propriety of all my duties with the Indians being perform ed in open day and in the presence of as many as would at tend, of all states and of all colors ; 1 look care that the certifi cate should be taken and explained in presence of the Council and all others wiio Had seen lit to attend. I had no secret pro jects to promote, nor any “ secret griefs” to remedy, or secret hopes to graiily ; and consequently had no occasion for separa ting tiie Chiefs ur fur secret examinations. The certificate was written as it was dictated, as 1 believe word for word, by my Aid-de-camp Lieut. L. George Washington Bailer, a young of ficer of accomplished military education and talents, with unuen ding integrity and spotless honor ; and who is as incapable ot giving countenance to a trick or misrepresentation as was the beloved father of his country with whose name he is honored an< whose patriotism and virtue he constantly and scrupulously imitates. Having thus explained to you the means employed to obtain the certificate in question, for which I hold myself responsible, I have now to remark' that, although 1 never entertained a doubt but you were deceived into a belief that Gen. MMutosli had consulted the few Chiefs ol his party, and had obtained .heir assent in council, to the immediate survey of the ceded nd ; yell have found no satisfactory evidence of any such ' ouncil consisting of >!ie Chiefs of the ceded territory, having r acted at all upon the subject.—And it is apparent from lulosh’s letter *• no matter how procured” (I will offer no a ogy for making use of your Excellency’s pregnant phrase,) y whom written, that he himself considered the permission to ey as merely conditional. But 1 contend that neither Gen. r mtosh nor las vassal Chiefs had any right to give such permis sion: for the treaty “ no matter how procured” had become a law ji me laud : —its provisions could not therefore be changed or ren dered inoperative by any correspondence or any subsequent a grecniem between your Excellency and any parlor the whole of the individuals of one of the contracting parties, without the consent of the other. The treaty makes it our duty to protect the Indians against whiles and all others. To protect them from the whites, ilia necessary and proper that we should maintain the usual line of demarcation between them and the Whites. I am charged with their protection. To accomplish this important duly my first ooj d has been to lake effectual measures t# prevent all iutercoursebetween them and the whites, excepting only such as is sanctioned by the laws of the United Stales. You say •• I very well know that from the late events which have transpired under the eyes of the Commissioners ot Geor gia, that the o.ilh of a Governor of Georgia may be permitted to pass for nothing and that any vagabond of the Indian country may be pul in requisition lo discredit him, but I assure you sir, if that oath should not we gh a single feather with your Govern ment it will weigh with the people of this stale, who so tar as 1 have knowledge of their history, have never yet relused cred ence lo the word of (heir Chief Magistrate.” To thu apparently very serious, but certainly very vague charge, I cannot undertake to reply until you do me the favor to give me some specification of the matters of fad lo which you have reference, 1 will however take this occasion lo remark that whatever statement you may have received in support of the lusi.iuuuon apparently contained in your letter that i have called in question, or ever put any person in requisition to call in question, the oath, or the word, of a Governor of Georgia, du ring his continuance in office-, is wholly destitute of truth. 1 have indeed believed, and have expressed to you my belie! that you have been greatly deceived by persons in whose honor you placed reliance, nut who were unworthy your confidence. Bui 1 am oy no means disposed to yield even my tacit assent lo the high toned rule of English law which your remarks just now quoted call to mind, that “ the King can do no wrong.” Truth is a divine attribute and the foundation of every virtue. “ Truth is the basis of all excellence.” This inestimable, moral treasure, truth, is lo be found in the cottage us well us in the pal ace, at the plough as well as at the official bureau of stale. Many of the unfortunate wanderers of the wilderness and its borders are firm votaries of truth as any men I have ever known. Some of them who have been unfortunate, and whose regard lo truth and honesty induced them logive up the last dollar justly due lo their creditors, had I hey regarded money a little more, and truth a lit tle less might have failed fall handed, Sc now instead of being re duced lo me condition of despised poverty, would wanton in the luxuries of plundered wealth It is no longer possible in America lo make free men believe that “ the King (or he who governs) can do no wrong." The enlightened citizens of the republic having long since found it to be fruitless to look for angels in the form ot men to govern them, know lull well how to discriminate between the high office, and the /nan who fills it. Your Excellency will I doubt not always receive a degree of respect proportioned at least to that which you arc want lo bestow on other men in of fice ; more than this could not be expected—less than this would not be just. That g great part ot the citizens of Georgia are magnanimous, just, generous and chivalric I well know —and that they are disposed to «.o justice to their chief magistrate 1 am equally convinced : nor canT doubt that they will do equal justice lo their United Stales as well as to their stride officers. I roly upon the wisdom and justice and patriotism of at least nine tenths of tlnse with whom I have the pleasure of an acquaint ance—many of whom are cultivators of the laud, to which class, in this and every other state of the republic, 1 look up with con fident pleasure and pride, as they form the adaniantive pillars ol the UNION ; against which the angry vapouring papersquibsof the little ami grout demagogues, of all countries, may continue lo b-- hurled for hundreds of ceuturies without endangering the noble edifice ; tins beloved monument of American wisdom and valour and virtue, will stand unshaken, when the disturbers of its .infan tile repose will be remembered only to he pitied or execrated. The good people of Georgia ! am well aware are anxious to ob tain possession of the land upoo their western border; but they would abhor the idea of fraudulent or lawless means being resort ed 10, to treat for, or alter treating, to obtain possession ot it, be fore the lime authorized by treaty—and I am convinced that the President of the United Slates is as sincerely desirous as any up right citizen ol Georgia can be, that the Indian claims to the land within per limits should te speedily extinguished ; and that the Indians should remove therefrom as soon as they can justly be re quired to remove—But he owes them protection and justice. It is not to be denied that there is in Georgia as well as in eve ry other stale, a.small class of men who, like profess lo employ themselves »n the laudable work of enlighten ing and governing all other classes of the community ; but whose labours consist of vain and “ daring efforts” to prove that the light of truth is lo be found only with the party to which they them selves respectively belong; and that all others go wrong. If you will take the trouble lo read the newspaper essays with which the presses have been teeming for some years past, you wi,ll find that many of the essayists have bad the hardihood to “refuse cre dence lo the word of their chief magistrate” and yet we have no rea. on to despair of the Republic. You say “ I do not like the compaction of things at all, as Ais closed by the commissioners on the part of the slate, and I sin cerely hope (you add) that you may never have cause to regret the part that you have taken in them.” Permit me then sir, to conclude with a sincere hope that the commissioners with whose report! am thus menaced, may prove by their conduct that they belong not to the aforementioned one sided enlightening class- Should theii report be found lo contain the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the Iruih, your Excellency may dismiss your ap prehensions on my account, as 1 have nothing to apprehend. But if their report is not true, I can only say that the tongue and the pen of calumny can never move me from the path of duly, nor ev er make me regret the course pursued by me in respect to the In dians, or the commissioners, the state, or the United States. In tendering to your Excellency my acknowledgments for the “ prepossessions ’ in my favor of which you speak, and which you say would have given you “ pleasure to cherish in behalf of an of ficer who had rendered signal services to his country,” permit me to observe that the approbation of my countrymen is more dear to me than any earthly treasure they could bestow, save that of an assured devotion to the republic—if indeed, it be in uiy power to win that approbation by a faithful discharge of my duty, as a pub lic officer, and as an honest plan : 1 have long endeavored thus to win it ; my best efforts are constantly exerted to ascertain the di rect and proper course of duty prescribed by law, and justice and honor, and lo pursue that course without any regard lo ces. I have seen of late with regret, that it is scarcely possible for an officer of the general government, to differ from you in opinion, without incurring your uncoorteous animadversion, or yjfmr acrimonious censure—neither of which shall ever induce me to forget what is due to the venerated station which you fill, and the relation in which you stand to the general government, in whose service 1 have the honor to be placed Wishing you health and respect, I have the honor to he, EDMUND PENDLETON (HINES, jytajor (General Commanding. i To his Excellency (ieorge M Troup, kr-v Governor of Georgia. Mr. Rusk, late Minister to London, now Secretary of the Treasury, has arrived in this City, preparatory to entering upon the duties of that Department. His old friends in this District hail fiis return to reside a tnmgsi .hem, with sincere pleasure. Effects of temperance. —“ We find from the registers of the Society of Friends, or Quakers, that as a consequence of their tem perance, one half of those (hat are b >rn live to the age of 47 years ; whereas Ur. Price tells us that of the general population of London, half that, are born live only 22 years! Among the Quakers, 1 in 10 at rives at 80 years of age ; of the general popuU tion of London, only lin 40. Never did a more powerful argument support the prac tice of temperance and virtue.” Boston Medical Intelligencer. CONSTITUTIONALIST • AUG US TA. Tuesday, AurnwrlTTiiT" General Gaines’ letter to Gov. Troup, is said to be written with “ great ability,’ - by some ot those very editors who have been abusing the harshness of his Excellen cy’s style. So exceedingly consistent are the politicians of the time ! The impart!- | al reader will not fail to remark that tire , Generals letter partakes in a large degree of . those “spicy qualities,” which have been so decidedly disapproved by our political oppo nents, and yet it is an “ admirable produc- tion”—written with “ great ability,” and well calculated to produce “ conciliatory results.” We are not disposed to deny 1 some merit to this praise-bespattered docu- ' ment, and shall always, we hope hold Gen. Gaines’ character in the highest esteem ; but really his journey to Georgia will not! be reckoned by the future historian as a r mong the most brilliant events of his life. ; We do not blame him —lie has doubtless ; done every thing in his power to elicit truth. ; It was not his fault that the Indians, true [ to their old enmity to the United States and their purpose of breaking tire Treaty,, and of justifying a most foul murder, nave spoken falsely and deceitful. No one caih read vvjth attention the report of the Geor gia Commissioners, without seeing that eve-, : ry thing was “ cut and dried” (or the Gene- j 1 rals investigation, and that it would be as i reasonable to expect the truth from the i slave in opposition to the will of his mas-; i ter and in tl>e presence of that master, as! 1 from tire Indians in opposition to the will of the Agent and in the presence of the Agent, j ! General Gaines thinks that the Governor i lias been misled ; may not the General havej ‘ been imposed upon by artifices and gloss^ 5 f which his own .eminent candour and high I sense ol honor have not permitted him to perceive or develope ? J We learn from “ A citizen of Edgefield,” , whose essay is republished in the National “ Intelligencer, that the re election of Mr. ‘ t Adams is tube opposed by a large and res-< j pectable party in South Carolina. This is j what we expected, and yet these gentlemen ] (witness tire essays of Justice and X. Y. Z.) J are endeavoring to weild the influence of - the President against Governor Troup, and - cui bono? —The answer is obyious—for the f benefit of Gen. Jackson, or Vice-President 0 ' Calhoun !—We ask only one more question, - is the President blind ? [ Mr. Wirt has written to several of the Judges, to Mr. Emmet and to Mr. W heaton, ■ upon the subject of the doctrines in relation = to slavery which were said to have been ad vanced by him in a late speech before the ’ Supreme Court. These gentlemen have in s their replies acquitted him of maintaining - the proposition “ that slavery being incun s sistent with the laws of God and nature 1 cannot exist.” It is a little remarkable that 0 Mr. Wirt should look upon this as a very . grave charge and defend himself against it ) tolis viribus, while Mr. King, did in the “ Missouri discussion, advance and support the self same proposition, and with his o ’ pinions unrecanted, now holds one of the e most respectable public appointments in the ■ gift (if the Government. It is moreover || strange that Mr. Wirt’s language should - have been so grossly misunderstood by ma s ny persons who were at Washington at the > time. We should like to know how “ So “jmerset's ca«e” was made to apply to his ar gument and whether he considered that case s as authority in this country. n - 1 The known partiality of Maj. Andrews 3 for the Indian Agent Crowell and the man ner of conducting business at llroken Ar row, independent of the close intimacy be tween Andrews and the principal men of the Clarke party, who are Crowell’s bosom friends, are assurances “ strong as proofs ! 1 from Holy writ” that the Special Agent’- 1 1 'Report will be unfavorable to the Treaty,l< ‘jand will go as far as such a thing can go,l' s tn annul or break it. It will avail nothing,,j if the people be true to themselves, and give < their cordial support to Governor Troup, | who is well known to he the friend and able i defender of the Treaty, and of all the le- 1 ’ gitimate rights of the people of Georgia. D • the people at a distance from tins Seat i of Government know, what is well known ( ■ nere in Mill edgeville, that the ancien'h friendship and intimacy b tween the Indian I Vgent Col. Crowell and G >n. Clarke is un- . diminished, notwithstanding the Indian A- s gent’s opposition to (lie Treaty, &c. and y thar they and othe.s of their kidney are . lie exclusive associates of the Special A- i gent Andrews ? t f Mill, Recorder. j FOR THE CONSTITUTIONALIST* THE REWARD OF MERIT. A Society was organized in the Piiiey Woods a few weeks ago, for the purpose of suitably rewarding the authors of the best ssays against Gov. Troup and his admin istration. A meeting was held on Friday he sth inst. which was attended by a large number of the members. The Secretary, uy order of the President, read several es says from various newspapers, among which “ Justice’’ from the Augusta Chronicle, of the 3d inst. and the “ Citizen of Ogle thorpe” from the Georgia Journal, stood pre-eminently conspicuous. Several es says from Northern papers were ordered to be tiled away, as the Society were de termined to patronize “ Domestic Manu factures” only. Several articles from the Georgia Patriot were, for want of time, laid over to the next meeting. The Society then proceed ed to award medals to the fortunate au- thors, and unanimously passed the follow • ing resolutions: Resolved, That the essay signed “ Jus tice,” in the Chronicle ol the 3d inst. is * entitled to the approbation of a“ discern- 1 ing public, ” and of the Clarke party par ticularly. | Resolved, That “ Justice ” is entitled to 1 the large Pewter Medal,* for his able efforts to advance the interests of this Society, 1 and that the President be requested to for- '' ward it to him, as soon as his name is made ! known to the Society. | Resolved, That “ Justice ” be made, an 1 honorary member of this Society. 1 The claims of the “ Citizen of Ogle thorpe,” to distinction were nexi called up, and the following resolutions were jfassed, nem. con. i Resolved, That the “ Citizen of Ogle thorpe” in consideration of Ins arduous efforts for the advancement of a good cause, ,be presented with a smaller Pewter Me- Idal.t Resolved, That he be made an honorary membei of this Society. The Society then adjourned to the first 'Friday in September next, with an under standing that they were to meet on Satur day the 12th inst. for the purpose of par ' taking of a Barbacue to be given to the So ciety at the “ Island ,” and to which all lovers of good eating, of good drinking, and of Gen. Clarke, are respectfully invited. SPECTATOR. * This medal has on one side inscribed i in neat letters," the best essay”—on they other side Gen, Clarke talcing the oaths oj .office as Governor, with the legct.d, “ swear OR AFFIRM —AS THE CASE MAY HE.” t This smaller one is equally neat, and 1 ' has on one side “ second ‘best essay” — oa\ the other, a full length likeness of Governor | : l Troup, who is in the act of shooting at a large Indian with a pocket pistol. General La Fayette’s claims under the I late law of indemnity for confiscated pt o i perty during the French revolution amount,! it is said, to six hundred thousand francs Should he receive that sum, about one hun dred and twenty thousand dollars, (of which there is little reason to doubt, as he comes within every principal of the provi sion) it will make a considerable additon to I the donations of this country, and render!] - the decline of his life almost as affluent as 1 i the commencement of it. It is understood 1 , that he does not go to France for a perma- ’ 1 nent residence there, but intends to return 1 again to the United States. I [Frcejnan Jour, i Frigate Brandywine. —We understand that the frigate Brandywine, which is to have the honor of conveying La Fayette to Prance, was to have dropped down from the Navy Yard at Washington, over the <■ Bar, yesterday, and remaining there a few l days, would then proceed down the Bay to < Hamptoa Roads. Captain Charles Morris I will, we learn, command this fin • ship. 1 [Norfolk Beacon. \ There are 127,000 Sunday School Scho- t , lars in the United States, according to the annual report of the Americai? Sunday i School Union. 1 A Northern paper states, that whether ; acquitted or convicted, Commodore Porter will leave the service at the close of the iri- t al. It is further whispered, that he has an 1 offer of an Admiralty in the Mexican Na- 1 vy, which it is supposed he will accept. A late London paper says, “ the tread | mills in England are, we understand, to be altered to hand crank mills, as recommend- v ed by Sir J. C. Hippesley, Dr. Good, and f others. There can be but one opinion on the policy of the change, for the firmer in- tl jure the limbs, while the latter exercise the t arms, and thus become serviceable to the 1 person on his return to manual labor.” —— Kx tract of a letter from an Officer of the United Stoles’ ship Peacock to a gentleman of New-York- “ Chorillos, March 19. “ On the 22d February, the anniversary| r . of the birth day of Washington, our ship J was visited by Prisident Bolivar. He had M his breakfast on board the frigate United 11 Stales. There vere about forty sail of ves- t j seis in the harbor, which saluted him on his , approaching and leaving the frigate. The scene was almost indescribable. The Presi dent himself observed that lie had never S j been received by any people with such res- c pect.” We present our Readers with the following beautiful Sonnet; if we mistake not, it is from the pen of a Georgian, as distin guished for his proficiency in graver stu dies as for his successful cultivation of po lite literature. Sonnet—To the Mocking-Bird, Wing’d mimic of the woods! thou motley fool, Whftjjhall thy guy buffoonery describe? Thine ever-ready notes of ridicule Pursue thy fellows still with jest and gibe ; Wlt—sophist—songster—YOßlCK of thy tribe ; Thou sportive sutyrist of Nature’s school, To thee the palm of scoffing we ascribe, Arch mocker, and mad Abbot of misrule ? Tor such thou art by day -but all night long Thou pour’st a soft sweet pensive solemn strain, A . if thou didst in this thy moonlight song Like to the melancholy Jacques, complain, .Musing on falsehood, violence and wrong, And sighing for thy motley coal again.

Mr. Joseph Bell, of whom wc have fre quently had occasion to speak, and who appears to bean universal genius, is now Boring for Water, jn this neighborhood with success. He has already penetrated the earth to the depth of about 70 feet. Mr. Bell has succeeded on a former occa sion in boring deeper, (we pfesumc) than any other person in the known world. At the Salt Spring in Washington County, Virginia, he bored to the extraordinary deptli of seven hundred and twenty feet, four inches. [lbid, An eastern paper mentions the death of a lady who died in great agonies, and that this melancholy event was occasioned by the head of a pin which fell into her eaV while she was making use of that little in strument in picking it. It should be borne in mind that ifany casually of this kind oc curs, human skill can afford no relief—it is beyond the reach of medicine, beyond the power of the surgeon to afford a remedy. Let this melancholy example then serve as a caution to persons how (net apply pins to their ears. We have before -heard of cases of this kind, and we had resolved to mention the subject byway of salutary cau tion ; and the recent death remind us of our negligence. Balt, dimer. The following hitherto unpublished anec dote may be relied on as authentic:—A gentleman residing in one of the provinces | of France, was under the necessity of has tily quitting his paternal estate during the Revolution. Just prior to leaving it, how lever, he prudently concealed his money and (other valuables to a considerable amount, in 'a place known only to himself. He then (left th< country, and resided in England for ■many years, during which he was much straitened in his circumstances. On llic fall of Bonaparte in 1815, he returned to France, and, by dint of entreaties and soli citations among his few remaining friends in that country, he succeeded in raising a sum of money sufficient to purchase his for mer estate, (which had been confiscated) on the piomise of returning it within a given (period. As soon as the purchase was com plete, he got a carpenter, and invited his friends to accomjmny him to the house, the period of repayment having expired.— When they got to a certain room he ordered the man to remove some planks from the floor winch he pointed out, which being done, the treasure he had secreted many years be fore was found undisturbed, from which he instantly repaid Ids friends, equally to their astonishment and satisfaction.
