11,a town was gone. The war song ol the
warrior, with Us wild and not unmusical ca
dence, was hushed. All was stillness—dead
Klillncas, except when a sobbing wail broke
luirj.ubilly Iroin Hie interior of some lodge
whose mumles triad suffered in the late be*
roabeineut. , .
Jt was ala (a'c hour of the night Hint me
•pell was broken. Warriors muffled in I heir
shaggy robes. were seen Hilling in the bloom
towards the chiefs lodge. In silence, and
with smothered tread they glided onward and
cu'iorud.
Thu meeting was one of deep import to the
nation. There was a sadness and sternness
in il, tor unlike the triumphal gathering that
had been held but llm day previous in the same
budding. Since then w at 11 change ! The
victims doomed to destruction bad
bad worsted them in conflict; and many ol
those who bad pronounced their sentence were
no.v stiffening 111 the embrace of death.
Tba marks of the fray woie stamped upon
all. B.lllla «ore gashed with wounds as yet
nnbomid. Olliers crouched in tho flicker ng
light ol tho tire, with thuir features red with
gore. Others with their brows knit in sullen
furrows, and tiieir useless arms at their sides,
sal brooding in silent fury over the disastrous
result* of their enterprise.
At tin.* upper end of ibc lodge sat the old
chief, and beside him an Indian, with his hair
hanging in long and dishevelled Make locks on
Ins shoulders. The lower part ol' a s body was
ctathud in a while robe, marked with different
symbol*. II.• forehead was low deeply (ar
rowed, and beneath bis brow b * malignant
eyes gleamed like sparks ol lire. -His lace
had (alien in, bis frame was withered, and bis
arms were shrunken. Every thing denoted
flccropitn.le, excepting those brilliant snake
like orbs, which showed that though his phy
meal powers were wrecked, the lire ot his in
tellect was yet miexlinguislied.
Thir was the chief Medocin of the villaje.
One as tho-e whose superior craft ol intelli
gence* enables them to bend tho wild rabble to
(jioir will, by 1 heir jugglery and protended
communication with tbe Hciiy.
In the centre of the lodge sat a single In
dian female, surrounded by a ring of warriors.
Upon her Hie angry looks ul all wore nvottod.
ft was Nahtou.ah; alio was hound with leath
ern thongs. The haughtiness which at limes
lighted up her otherwise soft and feinniine
Asaiurcs, had disapncired, am! she no v scorn
ed in the lowest and most heart-breaking de
spondency. Her hair was dishevelled, her
feature* were wet with tears; and not a trace
•f her bold carriage was left. Once —and
tint once she raised her head and ran a wistful
glance round the assemblage. She encountered
n»t a face but scowled upon her, amt with a
despairing gesture she dropped her 1 ves to
the ground.
Tne allottee which for nearly an hour had
filled tho building, was now broken by the
Medecin, who slowly rose. The Im-U gre i
intense; the ruthless was so wrapped, that it
seemed that not a brenlli wa, drawn, though
every Itirrowed lace was kindled into excite
ment. The Mfthrin east a keen and lull
triumphant look upon the gir'; then directed
Kis attention to the assembly.
••The I’awnee” said he, “arc selling in
council. Dm the places of many are empty.
Where are the warriors! Ask the wolves
and the ravens, that are tearing their limits,
and um while man who laughs as he docs al
their while hones.”
The speaker jianscd U> watch the effect ol
his words. A low tierce xunnmir soninled
through the budding. Thu ijedoein saw
that lh« feelings of the warrior# wore until
him, and seized too moment to uuufroa 1 . hi,
• , ' ct ' ,n * ... .. , .

•s Jnsl llicn Hie long and distant howl o
an wolvi-s was tieard.
B h ‘i)*j you hoar that cry ?" said the Medccir
ol sternly, ‘Tis a wull'liastrnuig te . the s|m,l
~ where the Pawnee is lying; Ins tisnd Is s.ill
n; his voice is hiithud; hu osiinut dnve away the
ft, wolf ikal tears hu limbs; he is dead.”
Jt ‘ Thu girl Saw Hint tier late was sealed Bhc
18 knew iii.it she ha I been the cause ol disaslei
rs to tho tribe. Slie had no defence to offer,
'd save her love lor Nharalnek: and he by some
strange (aUlily, was absent. Hot the utter
ir (iroNtratiori which at first had (isralyzed her
>- energies passed away, and her eye kindled as
0 she lauiilingly refilled.
•Why is ihu I'uwnoo dead? The while
ts man haunted linn. The Fswneelled. lie
I- turned not on Ii s pursuer, for his arm was
» like a w oman’*; Ins heart war water; ha was
" a coward ’
'I ‘He win kiUcrl,’ refilled the Medocin stern.
3 ly. ‘A warrior dies; a coward escapes.’
<1 ‘A Ueur that runs is killed by a shaft as
■ well as the tierce hear that lights,' was the
response of Hie now undaunted girl. ‘There
• were deer among the I‘uwnves, they were
'• shot m Hie back.’
• Thu Medecm fur a moment was silenced.
1 Hut a low and fierce hiss was distinctly audi
: bio from the aaaewbly 111 the lodge were
t the Ulocs who had mediated between them
f and the whiles; and the open taunt thus giv-
I en in tho presence of these members of a n
'• val tribe, increased the bitterness ol their en
• venomed feelings,
in the midst of the pause, an aged war
-1 rior rose. ‘-The maiden lias betrayed lier
tribe,” said he;j“shi! has brought dentil among
, Hie Hawneoa; let her iltcf”
A savage nmrmiff ot assent ran through the
; lodge, and was succeeded by a dead silliness.
At ilini moment there wasaiiagiiaiion among
■ llin crowd neatest the door. Ii opened, and u
warnm entered, and stalked to tho centre. A
- siignl cxcliiinatiun of joy escaped the prisoner,
! for at u glance «lie recognized the proud linen*
1 iiierils and iioblcnirm 111 HlO Hawk Clnet.
' .Slowly and calmly Ins ey« moved from luce
- to'ig, e until it rested upon that of the Medecm.

•‘She is a Pawnee; wherefore is she hound

The Modei.in waaatvaro that the- asscmlilage
was 0,1 hm s- if;, and his hardihood returned,
lie replied boldly:
“There is w h.lO blood in the veins ol Nnhv
tonr.ih ; she has Innicd from tier nation, and
heroine a pal,- face.”
The lip ot His Hawk tlhicf inrleu as he an
swered, "The great M nl.-em sings in the oar
of Slmi'alack ; ln« words fall to the ground.”
r Speech could not Imvt conveyed the feeling
I ot liate and cowardice more clearly Hum the
, black scowl Hurt swept over ihu lace ot tho
. Medecm, ns ho le ant those words, which in
; the I mini 11 language conveys a direct uecu.
I sutinii id falsoTinnd. He, however answored
, in those tones ufmodciuiiuii, wlii. li are oliun
assumed us a veil lor fear,
•My brother is young,’ said lie; ‘lie spoiks
fast; Ii s words toino only from bis mouth.’
Tlio Hawk Chief answered calmly, ‘ The
words of kdiaratackjire not songs. Listen !
(lie great Medocin would have Nahtourali d e.
It is well. When Nahtourali dies, ihv knife
of Slmrutnck shall be red with thu blood ol
the Modeciu. I have spoken."
A the finished, lie drew himself up, and
stepped hack us if lo m ike room lor the In
dian to puss forward to his victim. The Med
ecm was irresolute ; he cast a quick but keen
glance round the building, to learn from the
swarthy faces, whether Im was likely to ho
supported in In* sacrifice. He s.iw with in
stinctive quickness, that though many of the
older portion of thu audience, influenced per
haps by Ins sacred character, were disposed
to tnvor him, yet that the hold bearing of the
Hawk duel had produced a revolution in the
younger and more fiery members of the coun
cil.
After pausing for a moment, ho addressed
tho Hawk Chief.
•My brother speaks words of lire. He
knows not what he gays ; lie speaks lor one
who lias betrayed tier tribe—for one who has
broughtdcnil into the lodgo of the Pawnee.”
The face of the Hawk chief grew troubled.
He folded his arms and hunt Ins eyes to the
ground. ‘Let the Medecm speak,’ said he,
•8 aralack will hear.’
With a I ok of malignant joy, the Indian
priest hastened lo recount the release ot the
wli.toa,by Nalilonrali. lie related how Nali
lotirah hail guided them in their escape, and
furnished them with liursos. Every thing
that i uuld tend lo criminate and excite feel*
mgs against her, was dwell on by the crafty
priest.
The countenance of the young chief was
Unmoved throughout the whole roc tul. 'Vlicn
tl was finished, Stiarataek made two steps
towards the g rl.
•Nahtourali !” said ho in a tone, whose
softness, at that moment, so strongly con
trusted with the stern words lately addressed
to her, lint il sounded hku music to her cars.
The girl raised her hoad, and fixed her eyes
fondly on Ins face.
*1 > il Nahtourali cut the bonds of tho while

Nahtourali'* head sunk heavily upon her
breast, and aiio in 1110 no reply.
1 ‘Speak, Nahtourali,’ said Sliaratuck, some- ■
■ what sternly, ‘are the words of thu Muducin 1
true!’
Nahtourali sank at the tcct of her intorro
r gator, as she murmured,‘They arc true.'
: The Hawk Chief drew back, apparently tin
-1 moved ; but one might have observed a mo
i mentary tremulousnuss ul features, that m
-1 sin oily disappeared. He stood in silence,
1 with his ga;;e bent steadily on tho prostrate
• girl. He was aroused by thu voice of tlio
Medecm.
I '.SlmraUck has hoard thu maiden, shall sh’a

‘Slmrattck was a prisoner,’replied the In.
• dian gloomily. 'The slake was waiting for

'• free.’
I ‘Who placed the snare that caught Slinru.-
‘I lack V demanded the Medecm. ‘lt was Null*

». The frame of tbe young chief was for a mo

•I ‘The Medecm is right, let er go!’
’I Nahtourali ra sed tier eyes lo tho (ace of

Tho priest rose from the ground; drew hack

charged with kidnapping a slave belonging to
Mr. Sagur of Savannah. On the subject Mr.
Crawford delivered a very impressive and elo
quent speech.

improvement, is to he taken up this afternoon in

DECEMBER 24.
The Legislature did not adjourn last night as
it was anticipated. The House could have ad
journed, hut the Senate had 100 many bills to be
acted upon, to be able to dispose of them all.—
Both branches have therefore adjourned to meet
again tomorrow at U o’clock.
In the Senate, yesterday afternoon and eve
ning, nothing was clone, but going through three
sections of tho Internal Improvement Bill. The
discussion wilt lie resumed tomorrow, and the bill
despatched in some way or other. Some at
tempts were made to add some amendments to it,
of a local nature, which fai'ed. It is very ob
jectionable as passed by the House ot Kcprescn ■
talives; so that if the senate does not amend it,
I care not wboiber it becomes a law. An attempt
was made in the Senate to remove the objectiona
ble features of the bill, but it failed.
The rain was incessant from Friday to this mor
ing. The water courses have risen. I have

drowned.

From the A I hens Danner,
THE CONFERENCE.
The Georgia Conference of the Methodist E
piscopal Church, commenced its animal session
in this place on Wednesday, the 13lh insl., and
terminated ita’lahors on Wednesday night last.
Bishop Morris, of Ohio, presided. During its
sitting, public exercises were held in the Church
which wore well attended hy our community,
ami where they were favored with the opportu
nity ol receiving the ministrations of the Gospel
at the hands of a goodly number of its zealous
and devoted advocates.
We learn (hat about 800 members have been
added to the Church within the bounds of the
Conference during the present year; and the la
bors of its ministers have been generally blessed
in building up its institutions and promoting its
prosperity.
Among the questions agitated in the Confer
ence; was the subject of slavery, introduced, as
wo understand, in consequence of the peculiar
construction |M.it by some persons upon a clause
in tbo Discipline where domestic servitude is al
luded to. To satisfy the setuplea of the most
fastidious, the following resolutions were intro
duced, and unanimously adopted ;
Nesolveil, 1 bat it is the sense of the Georgia
Annual Conference, that slavery, as it exists in
the United Slate, is not a moral evil.
Itesalved, That we view slavery as a civil and
domestic institution, and one with which, as Mi.
■listers of Christ, wo have nothing to do, further
Ilian to ameliorate the condition of the slave, hy
endeavoring to impart to him and his master, the
benign influences of the religion of Christ, and
aiding both on their way to heaven.

Silt:—Wa beg rclcrence to the annexed stale,

ton at this place, du.ing the season which has

Since the Ist November 1836, we have re
ceived the following supplies: from Savannah
and Darien, 120,355 bales, Charleston, 93,892;
Virginia, 5798; New York, &c. 76,321; in »n'

| 728; in all; 478,422 from Ihe gulf, making a total j
import of 774,766 bales, which is much larger |
than in any former season; in the last we recalled '
only 721,518, while in 1834 1835 the import j
only amounted to 687,439, and in 1833.1834 to I
j 697,451. |

: scarcity of money, which preceded the late eritris,
| was m this time sensibly diminishing Ihe valve
of all produce, hy Christmas the prices of Cotton
were $d to lower; the stock then was much
reduced 20,000 hales less than in 1835; this in
duced more spirited buying, and by the middle ot
January the lower qualities had improved $d a
Jd. Although, the actual consumption was
now on the increase, and perhaps differed little
from that of 1836, the daily augmenting difflctil
itcs in ihe commercial world occasioned, Imm
this time, a rapid fall in prices: this downward
tendency continued with little intermission, until
the middle of May, when the lowest point was
attained.
The entire decline from the highest prices of
the Islh Jan. was about or Ifrom 30 to 40
per cent, while the discrepancy from the current
rales of May 1836, was still greater. After the
great failures in June, the worst of Ihe crisis wss
tell to ha over, c mfidencc slowly revived, and with
it the demand (or all descriptions of produce. It
was not until August that a material improve
ment occurred in prices ; the cessation of heavy
imports, mid Ihe constantly large purchases of
consumers, exporters and speculators, led, hy the
middle of September, to an advance of Id l}d
from the point of extreme depression: since then,
sumo slight fluctuations have occurred, but leav
ing our present quotations hcarly the same. Sea
Islands, owing to their scarcity, maintained their
highest rates until the end of March ; they then
declined very rapidly ; the intelligence of the t,e
--v ra hn ricanes ot July and August produced a re.
vulsion of feeling, and piices have gradually im
proved during tho last two months.
For sonic years the bin,sumption of American
cotton had been P'ln.ng upon the growth ; the
stocks left in b.oiopo and America, at the close of
each seas' - ,!!’! had invariably diminished, and the
average quantity on band during the entire twelve
months was sensibly less. To this constant pros
1 cf the trade must be attributed the high
prices current during the fouryeara 1833 to 1836;
these have at length (rttf r shmuli'teJ 'tVie produc
tion, iliKl "11% now sufficient to meet the
wants of consumers. It is true that the present
slock here is smaller than at any similar period,
but this is made up hy tho larger quantity lying
in the Continental ports, while on the Ist Oclo
her there were in the ports of the United Stales
117,000 bales against 34,000 in 1836, and it was
moderately estimated that 100,000 a 150,000
bales more than usual were held inland. Consid
ering these particulars and the favorable prospects
fin gadieiing in the abundant new crop, wc think
the excitement and rapid advance of prices in our
market during Ihe present week should nolle
viewed in a very sanguine light.
Os the 108,000 bales which composed our
stock, 50,000 at least are held by speculators ; the
markets is therefore in some degree under their
control; the more opulent spinners arc well slock
ed, but there is a largo number ol Mss extensive
manufactures who depend upon weekly purcha
ses for the r supply,—these may have to pay dear
er cm long for the raw material, but the fluctua
tions of the next few weeks will a (lord no safe cri
lei ion for (be obi mate prospects of Ihe season,
now commencing, only when ample supplies are
met by tho healthy demand of tho early spring
trade, can it bo decided whether tho mass of the
transactions of ihe season are to be effected at
lower or higher rales than those now current;
viewing tho siimlus given to consumption, by the
cheapness of the article, wo incline to the latter
opinion.
