y after the ndjournment of the Supremo coin t. 1 Jlr, Forsyth had called on pur counsel, Mr. Wirt, for die purpose of bringing about the Hine object, and had expressed his full confi dence, though lie said he was not empowered to give any pledge from the Government to that effect, that we should he discharged immediate • )y on the Governors receiving information, That no motion would be made before the coml. We at first believed, and have since been in formed, that Mr. Forsyth was authorised by the Governor to give Mr. Wirt such assuran- Sincrt our release, the question lias been ask ‘toil, what have the missionaries gained by suf et it.g imprisonment, and appealing to the Su preme Court ? I bis inquiry may deserve a reply. 1. Suppose we have gained nothing. Ought . we therefore to repent of having made the at ' tempt 1 —Are we never to make efforts and sac rifices for the accomplishment of an important object, without the certainty of success? Or, , when we have done it, and failed, arc we there ,fore to wish we bad not done it? No. If we . Jiave gained nothing else, we have at least ' a i /• ,-gained a very cheerful testimony of our con- that we have done lokut we could, for the prevention of injustice, oppression and rob beryq ami the preservation of the national .2- Zs we have not gained, we have at least i not lost the p/ivilege of laboring among the i ’’Cherokoos io the work of the gospel.' 3. .IV h have gained in behalf of the Chero kees, a decision of the Snpi cine Court, which although it does not avail for the protection of their present rights, may nevertheless have ve ry imputt-mt bearing on their future prosper! - l iy—a deci.non worth far more than the sacrifi- ; res wo have QJitde to obtain it. 11 r i /• i . Jve do nor jepeot of what we have done. We glfiaJv rejoi,'e io it. And now that we are free, it gives Us consolation to reflect that we have not obtained <> ’ ir freedom by any aban donment of principle, o." by ceasing to bear our (CiJ/rnoijy against the h.J 'Wee of the measures by w the Cherokees at 3 deprived of their •possessi.oit»i;. We fell it to be ue ,o cause iiiC justice, io announcing to jh authorities of the Slates, our detci initiation to , 'osecute the case no further, to declare o n mja. ’ er ®d con viction of the correctness of the prir» ’|des on which we have acted. H iving made J. t>c de claration then, ,we feel a freedom which: w ° j should not otherwise feel in making it now. ■ .Wn know not but we Khali ho considered at haying used language nnjusitfiably severe in tlii,s cocnmutncaUon, respecting the proceedings of tht State of Geoiuia; but our own vindica tion appears to requite that we speak of things as they are in uur own view. The nature 6( the pioceeding by which the defenceless Indians ine deprived of iheir possessions, appear tons very plain We wish certainly to avoid op probrious Linguage, but we cannot see why, when we h ive |c|t ourselves called upon to op prse a (orient of iniquity* we sbonld attempt to gloss over that iniquity by giving it names too smooth to express the truth. And we feel tin wil.ling to retiie, fium the contest into which we have been led, without giving our decided against what it is impossible for us to jjeeard in anv other light ili in INJUSTICE, OPPRESSION AND ROBBERY. To waids die Stare of Geoigia and her authorities we.are conscious of no vindictive feelings. Zt is our unceasing prayer that her transgressions and (he transgresidons of our countrymen be fmt’iven, and those judgements of heaven avert ed, which (here is too much reason to fear.” We me yours with much esteem and affec tion. S. A. WORCESTER, ELJZUR BUTLER. •Wrought, perhaps, here to say, Mr. Wirt did not give ns nnytuJ vice on the subject, preferring us lie smd, to sustain to us simply the relation ot legal counsel. WORCESTER AND BUTLER. We cannot call these men, “the missiona ries.” They have so much disgraced the sa cred' profession, that we are unwilling to rank them with such great and good men, as Carey, Heber, and Hudson. They have brought dis boner upon the cause of Hun, whom they pro fess to follow, whose meek rule was “obedience to dm powers that be,” who having “all power in Heaven and on earth,” and being a Jew, was not bound to piy tribute, still commanded Pe ter to provide for its payment, that no offence might be given to the J wish authorities. But | wo will not “cast pearl before swttio”—nor at tempt to lecture men more proper subjects for the jurisdiction of Captain S/icfc Co. than the Kingdom of the Pi iuce of Peace. The whole drift of the loiter from these men, which has been going the round of the opposition p ipets, is to create two leading ini piessions, both of which these men must know to be false. Ist. That they were solicited in directly by (he Governor to ask lor p u don. 2d. That they were solicited by the Govcrnot’s confidential liiends and others to ask for par don. We shall, nt present, only notice the first, us Col. Mills will in a few d tys give the public a statement of the facts in relation to both. It is manor of surprise that Worcester and B iller should have had the hardihood to publish uh.it they knew could he proved to be false. We know that the Governor entertain- i nd but one feeling and opinion upon ibis sub- I viz: that while he legretud the bad con- ( duct of> those men and their confinement, he was determined that they never should leave ! the W ills of the Penitentiary, till tin y had a bi'idum.d all hope of protection from the So- 1 p.cme Court, and hid tlnown themselves up-, on iho mercy of the State. 1! adhered most rigorotoly to this rule, and had not Worcester and Butler succumbed, they would still have been inmates ol the State Prison. Tin so men state in their lettet r< set icd to, that they ‘'made no solicitation, no orci ture, no compromise.” W e me enabled to give « * £il contiiitliction to every branch of this as set non, /rn»i their oirn pnis, ami tlw state ment of the Keeper of tho Penitentiary. On the 6 h of January las’, after obt lining leave from the board ol Foreign Missions, they ad dressed the following lattes' to tbc Governor. —Z’ct/cr.i/ L’ntv.v. ' PENITENTIARY. MillrdgeviUc, January 8, 1833. To His 1 EXCELLENCY WILSON LUMPKIN, Governor of the State of Georgia. Srtt— In reference to a notice given to your Excellency on the 23ih of November last, by our Counsel, in our behalf, of our intention to move the Supreme Court of the United States, on the 2d day of Februrry next, for further process in the case between ourselves individual ly, as plaintiffs in error, and the State of Geor gia as defendant in error; we have now to in form your Excellency, that we have this day forwaided instructions to our counsel to for bear the intended motion, and to prosecute the case no farther. We beg leave respectfully to sta'e to your Excellency, that we have not been induced to the adoption of this measure by any change of views in regaid to the princi ples on which we have acted or by doubt of the justice of our cause, oi of our perfect right to a legal discharge in accordance with the deci sion oi the Supreme Court in our favor already given; but by the apprehension that die further prosecution of the controversy, under existing circumstances might be attended with cunsc- . 7 o ...... quences injurious to our beloved country. We uie respectfully,, yoms, S. A. WORCESTER, ! Elizur Butler. ; They had the insolence to suppose that this ; letter would procure their release. That it did not, is positive proof of the falsehood they I at tempt to propagate against the Governor. ! Had he been so anxious for their release, he ' would have seized the first opportunity to par don. But he consulted the honor and dignity of the Slate; and m this view, that letter only i caused him to adhere more closely to Ins fixed determination to humble their wicked pride, land redeem the sanctity of our laws. Finding J - • i that lheir impudence and temerity had carried I them too far, and the Governor considered I lllet letter an indignity offered to the State, in I tho anxie.'y for the pardon, they desired tu withdraw the letter, that it might be remedied 1 to suit the exigency of their case. But the i | Governor understood them 100 well, and fore-! saw that while they were suppliants for mercy, i they wished io assume what they considered •high ground. . Jiut Xheir pride, not being of that i igh.eous kind whtc.h actuated Paul in pi ison l was soon abased. The Governor retained tins ’ letter, as well as the subsequent one, that the : i records of the Executive Department might i •shew to his successors and posterity, that these I .Midaciou politic al tools were compelled to bow I bl ./ore the laws and the righ's ofthe State.— Thu sequel proved that the .Governor acted ' wisely , <ur 0,1 11,0 ~ext day (o Uownng hum- ! 1 bie upo.<»gj v was addressed by then* to tho Gov- ‘ oruor. — ib. PENITENTIARY, , Milledgeville, January f 1883. To His Excela-eacy Wilson Lumpkin, Governor if the State of Georgia. S ni We tire sorry *0 be informed that some expressions in our c<xnt.’»‘«nicaiioii of yesterday, were icgatded by vour L xcellency, as an indig nity offered to the SUte r or ns authorities Nothing could he further fi 9m our design. In j the cou.se we have now ta.ke’U,. it has been out 1 intention simply, to forbear' .'he piosecution of our case, anJ to leave llw question oi our continuance in couuuement to trie .’uagnammity of the State. We are respectfully, yours, S. A. WorcesteiG Elizur Butler, Notwithstanding this letter, now ou file in the* Executive Office, these pious martyrs have? ( had the hardihood to assert to the American ( people, that they “made no solicitation, no overture, no compromise.” True they have attempted to clothe their prayer for pardon in very dignified terms; but if we understand the English language, this latter letter gives the lie to every branch of the assertion. Zt coaiains an humble apology, coupled with solicitation, j ‘ overture and compromise. These devuut men I ( have not condescended to tell the plain and 1 ( honest truth in any thing they have said, and ( throughout the whole controversy, they have ( exhibited any thing but the humility of Evange- ( lists, desirous of propogating the mild and humb ling doctrines of the Gospel. Zu the conclud- ' ing paragraph of theii first letter to the Govern- ' or, wilh the can', of the demagogue, they base their application upon injuries apprehended to , their "beloved country"— though they had been ' for six months endeavoring to bring the highest authorities of their beloved country into direct collision. Zu their second supplication for pardon, they based their application upon the "magnanimity of the iS’fuie.”—after having . used their best exertions to humble that mag ■■l nanimity under the bench of the Supreme ; Court. Now they wish to attribute their re ,l lease to tho apprehensions of the Governor ( and his friends. Zs thero a single trait of . Christian meeknees, lotbe.nance and truth . 1 tn any thing they have done? We are the . warm advocates of the tiue missionary cause , and spirit; and wo would advise the Board of r Missions, if they feel as Christians should, to > recall these men, and send men of piety and 1 truth among the unfortunate Cherokees. The principal Keeper of ihe Penitentiary j ! informs ns, that, in addition to the foregoing ' , letters, Worcester and Butler did solicit him to I ascertain the views and feelings of the Gov- ( I ernor. We are the friends of the Governor, , and we can truely say, we have never known him more unyielding and indexible upon any j subject th in on this; ami that instead of his send ! mg any intimations to these men calculated to thaw from them a solicitation tor release, such solicitations were made to kii.i by his friends— to which Ite give, so fir as we know and believe, one unwavering and undeviaiing answer, th it he was determined not to be moved by threats of the Supreme Court, and that these men nev er should be released, till their suit was dispos ed of in the Supreme Court. And while there is no man, more anxious th in our Governor, lo avoid all controversy with every department of our happy Govei nment, there is none who will more pertii’.ici. 'jjly assert the just claims of Georgia. 1 The truth is bi it fly ibis. Worcester and 1 Butler had been addressed by various religious gentlemen of their own denomination. They had been told that their conduct was unchristian in continuing a useless and improper controver- i sy—that they were injuring tho cause they pro- ' fessed to advocate. They had been told by | ' other gentlemen, that their conduct might have 1 ► an unhappy effect upon the already excited state of political relations. We understand ' that these views were represented by them, or • their religious agent, to the Board of Foreign ' Missions. Mr. Potter, their agent, was in ■ Milledgeville, perhaps awaiting their answer. The enlightened men, composing that Board, though they at first acted imprudently, so soon ' as they discovered that the te-eleclion of Jack sou, who had sustained Georgia throughout,j and the public opinion of the gieat body of the American people expressed in that election, ‘ had virtually settled the Cherokee controversy, and reversed the decision of the Supreme Court—advised Worcester and Butler to hold out no longer—that the finger of Providence bad directed them through these events in the path of duty, and that it was the duty of all who j believed that events were overruled by the Dei | ty, to follow in the path he pointed out, tec.— ' Upon the reception of this answer, and on the | very night of its arrival, Worcester and Butler ! wrote the letter of the Sth January to the Gov ! ernor. Mr. Potter carried it to the Governor. , lit was unsatisfactory, and they wrote that of ’ the 9ih. On the icception of this letter, the 1 Governor, considering that the honor of the | Sate was redeemed and satisfied, released i them, as he should have done. This is the true account of the conduct of these men, and they dare not deny it. We feel it a duty due to Christians, as well as politicians, to sum up in few words, the char acter of these miscalled “ missionaries." Ist. Under the name of Christian Mission ■ aries, they acted as die political tools of the Cherokees and their white advocates, so long as they resis ed the laws of Georgia and her just claims, and remained m the Penitentiary. : 2d. After finding themselves compelled to j dismiss their suit in the Supreme Court, and : ask for mercy, their wounded pride and malice , have prompted them to become the political \ tools of the Governor’s enemies. In the first | < instance, they found allies out of Georgia. In j ! the second, they find their allies in Georgia, a- I , mpng the opponents of Mr. Lumpkin. Neilh : ei/ these mon, nor their adjuncts can derive ' nluch credit from an affiance so unholy,. They 'are poth the enemies of the true interests of , Georgia. I 3d. They have evinced an unrighteous am | bition and malignant depravity of heart, in , turning round, and endeavoring to cast odium j upon the man, who had extended to them the clemency they prayed fur. We have but a question or two fur the Gov ernors opponents. Why did you support Gilmer, who pardoned several men, without their application, sen tenced with Worcester and Butler, before they had entered .he Penitentiary walls, upon their bare promise either to leave the Territory or submit to our law, while that law was in forc»l And why do you now oppose Lumpkin, who suffered Worcester and Butler to remain 18 months in pt ison, and would not pardon them, till thev had dismissed their suit, and begged for mercy» even after the law was repealed un der which they were sentenced? Can you an swer us? Oh no! Lampkin has teen guilty of the un pardonable sin of having settled our whole In dian question, and acquired the rights Georgia has so long contend for. He is guilty of the heinous offence of a warm attachment to Jack son and the Union. These things you cannot hNgive, because they place him beyond the reach of your vengeance.— -ib. A CARD. Milledgeville, July ffth, 1833. Messrs. &, Ragland. Gentlemen. —ln your paper of th»f» 20th June, is published an extract of a letter fron? S. A. Worcester, and Elizur Buller, to tho Edi tors of the “Missionary Herald,” which letter was intended by the writers, or has been so construed, to convey the idea that they had consented to withdraw their suit, at solicitation ofthe Governor, through his confidential friends and that “no solicitation, no overture, no com promise.” was m ide on their pari, f coin the manner in which mv name has been introduced, in the letter alluded tv; niy silence might be con strued into a sanction of its correctness—a full statement of the facts in connection with the release of the Missionaries, will be presented bv me to the public in your n><‘Xt paper, not , being in time for this, as you in/orm me, when the public can judge for themselves, whether or not the Governor has in the slightest degree compromited the lights of the State in this matter. | Verv Respectfullv, CH MILES C.

The artilleiy ofthe aristocracy, that opened with such force against the pi oposiii'jn submit ted to the people, by the late convention, seems to be soon exhausted ; the contest is now car ried ’ji) by some random, running firing, a few i pop-guns and some squibs, that only go to show that the enemy evacuated ins ground rcluc , tantly but in disorder. Whit is it all over so | soon? has the list blow been struck? his the enemy no more amm initioti oi is it all ex i pended ? if so, die victory "ill easy as the contest has been brief- ’ GOtD— NO BANTER— r NO EXAGOERATTOSJ. I Wo rejoice at the good for tine ol those Miners, east of us, that can from their richdc- I posits, produce 32 dwis. per. diem to the hand; | we admit, without controversy, that many days i such profits, will raise any man from poverty to I wealth. Whilst the deeds of others, in this re- ■ gard, are going abroad, we just ask permission | to say, that at the Sixes’ Mines, a few days ago, 'i our worthy friend General Lawhon, realized i from one of his washers 14 dwts. to the hand; I and that at one of the same Mines, Colonel Caldwell procured a piece, weighing 38 dwts. 8 S’ We would not, by any means, wish to con vey the idea that all the Mines of the region, ' that are operated upon, are yielding anenormus | profit, far fiom it, this business, like most other, { ■ has been overdone or rather many Mines have been worked that do but a poor business and m iny have been abandoned. The Sixes, we think, are amongst the most valuable yet dis covered. GOVERNOR LUMPKIN. After inviting the opposers of the Governor to bring forward the charges, they might think proper to prefer ; after having stated, distinctly, the ground upon which we placed ourself in th*- support ofthe governor ; and, after waiting ' proper time, we come, now, to examine ’h. j charges, and what they are, that seem to deserve [ aiten ion ; for many are made, too trifling (or . consideration, that are, only, made to gratify malignity, with such we have nothing to do, j ’tis wilh those that address themselves to the i judgement, that we feel concerned. j Much more seems to rest upon the charge of the Governor’s improperly discharging tho i Missionaries, than any other. No want of i ability to dischrge his complicated duties, no im proper discharge of duty is charged against Governor Lumpkin ; the whole opposition, j then, to the re-election of Governor Lumpkin, is lodged in the circumstance of the discharge of the Missionaries, in this case it is said that the dignity of the state has been compromited; let us proceed to examine this matter with de- . liberation. i The character of the state has nothing to do i with the acts of the Governor, further than they I relate to him, as such ; his ac-'s, as Governor, ! are made know, by issuing orders, proclama- , lions and the like, all of which beai io the char acterofthe state, such a relationship, that if they are wrong they reflect disgrace upon it, if they are correct, they support the dignity of the [ state. 'Rhe Missionaries were not confined for , the commission of a crime. Governor Gilmer I offered the Alissionaiies a discharge after their ' arrival in Milledgeville, if they would take the > required oath or leave the state, upon their re- : fus.d to do either, they were imprisoned. It should, constantly, be recollected, ail while men j residing in that part of tho state of Georgia, known as the Cherokee nation, were required by an act ofthe Legislature, to t.ike an oath to support tho laws of the state, those that took the oath were permitted to remain in the nation without further exaction, those that refused to • comply with the provisions, ofthe act, were de- ' elared guilty of a misdemeanor and subject, up- i on conviction, to Penitentiary imprisonment. Georgia had long contended against the influ ence of white men exercised against her rights, residing in and out ofthe nation, if it was not practicable to arrest the influence of those out of the state, it was practicable for her to arrest the influence of those within the state. Nothing need be said, on this occasion, relative to the propriety or expediency of this Act, that is foreign to the point, it is somewhat strange that no white man felt the inconvenience of this act ot the Legislature, but the Missionaries. Tho organization of the country, rendered ob solete the act under which tho Missionaries were imprisoned, they were disarmed as were the other opposers of the state, by the settle ment ol the triends of the state in the country ; in view of this fact, the last Legislaiure, repeal ed the act under which tho Missionaries were confined, thereby pointing to the discharge of these men. The Missionaries instituted an ac tion in the Supreme Court for their liberation th<M cause was pending before that court at the time ot the repeal of the act, under wjiich the Missionaries were confined, by the Legislature of Georgia. That this whole case may be understood, we publish, in this day’s paper, an extract from the letters of the Missionaries, after their discharge, a correspondence between certain gentlemen of i New-York and Governor Lumpkin, previous to their discharge these things have been pas- ( sing through the newspapers foi some time, and ; we now publish them that our remarks may ac company them, and as they form important linksiu the history of thisafihir. It seems to us that the responsibility of the measure, should rest, mainly, upon die Legit la- I lure, for, certainly, it made the first step to wards the discharge of the Missionaries, the re peal ofthe act under which they were confin ed. Upon the withdrawal of their case from the Supreme Court and an appeal Io the mag ' naittmiy ofthe slate they were discharged, it' • after the repeal ofthe act, spoken of by the Le ' uislatme and the withdrawal of their case bj I the Missionaries, the Governor had refused to discharge them, where is the sober-minded man . tli.it Would not have denotmeed him. The cir ; cumsrances, as we conceive, as we have detail- I ’ ed them, are those, alone, with which the char- [ ' actcr ol the state is connected and by which , that character can be affected for good or bad. ! Bat, it is contended, that certain persons, j J (nought about this state of things, and that the ! ' Governor had an agency in it all—by whom is ' j this proved, by the very men that hate received ■ a pardon after the withdrawal of a suit they knew would be fittiiless, th.it pt oof, however, ; !is to condemn the Govei nor of Georgia,an Uni ted States’senator and many dislifiumsl.t d in dividuals, besides. Suppose the whole state ment of the Missionaries to be true, without supplying much by conjecture and inference, it amounts to but little. Wnh the characters of those men we have nothing to do, it would be i no difficult task, however, we should think, to isliotrihat they wete nat entitled to so much weight of character, as to crush every body. Tn.it the Governor acted wisely, in this busi ness, wc never have had a doubt and that tire' character vs tbs state has beta preserved, I I throughout H>l ? t/ansaction,a>i3 h; s 1 tion, generally, is equally certain. Howcvef j f.ur, honest or innocent a transaction may be there are always, those that are ready to con demn it. . This Missionary affair comprises the only* crime against Governor Lumpkin ; suppose hgn, then, to have acted improperly through it all, how fortunate he has been ; at a time when so many difficulties intrude themselves upon him, how extremely fortunate that he has com mitted but one error ! bow much the superior, he is ol his immediate predecessor ! ’ We have been permitted to peruse a letter, giving the following detail of an affray, be tween Ridge’s and Ross’s fiiends at the Head of Coosa. Under other circumstances, we should permit this to pass off, as we do many other t.ffrays of the like kind, but when it is con sidered that Ridge is al the head ofthe Treaty paity, and Ross at the head of the opposition, we may reasonably, infer that there exists much hostile feeling between these two parties, tipou dial subject, and that they are disposed to man ifest it, towards each other, upon every occa sion. Rumor says that the anti-treaty-party are much displeased with Ross, accusing hitn of deception, in promising to restore the land, and that personal violence is threatened him. EXTRACT. “An affray took place some time ago, be tween John Fields, and his friends, and 00-n«- • hut-ty, and his friends, which, by the by, was j more severe than the one you have mentioned, . in your letter, it took place in Lavender’s stor«; I did not see it, I had left the company a short i time before, it was after a ball-play.
