Culture of Indian Corn. — Indian Corn be
ing on inuinrtant production of oar soil, and
extensively grown by our farmers, it tv desira
ble thiit we should attain the mode of rulliva-
ti.tig >l, at the Same time must easy and most
'productive. To contribute something to this
end. 1 shall mnko some observations on the
best mode of cultivating Ibis grain, nnd point
out some err..rs into which I conceive many
of oor farmers have fallen with regard tn it.
To n*eerlam the proper mode of culture for
any plan, it i* ncccasaty to examine mto'its
ttnlnrn and qualities, and the kind of soil to
xvl eh it is bust adapted, and wc should pro
ceed neenrdinglv. The want of proper atten
tion to thin rule, ha* producod'mnch wild the
ory am) hud practice in Agriculture. The
com plant requires a loose alluvial soil I”
tiring it to its greatest po.rfcrtitm, we should
therefore in preparing ground for its reception,
render it as light iiml mellow as possible,
ploughing ns deep ns the nature of the soil
will admit; harrowing the ground previous to
planting ts advantageous in bard cloddy soils,
but is nor generally neecHHiiry. Tlioncudslitnibl
be (Ivpesitrd in turne b struck as deep ns lb
ground is ploughed, and lightly covered with
loose earth; if loo much it irtli is thrown upon
it, liicie is danger of its retting in the cold wet
'.venlher. which sometimes guceceds the sen-
snii uf planting. By this mode of planting.the
plants nre more firmly fixed in tlm oarth, tin
roots striking deep, draw a greater supply of
nourishment to support llmm, they nro like-
wis". more secure from drought which ollen
prove, very dostruelivii to thu corn crop ; the
stalks will n<>t generally grow ns tall as thn
which nre planted superficially’) but nro thicker
nml stronger and proiliifo larger ears. The
be!' process of cultivation is, tltnt which will
preserve ti level surface, and most cflbctunlly
destiny tbo tveods. Tills is most rfiertuully
done by drawing a largo harrow over the rows,
(the depth of llio furrows will preserve the
plants front injury.) Tbo weeds should hr
• nreudlv removed.and furrows filled up around
tlm plant* ns they heroine largo enough m
bear it. If this operation is w ell dune, (ami
mtn h of the sucres* of tint crop depend* upon
its being so) one ploughing will be sulfieirnt ;
in doing this, the earth should bo thrown to
the corn) hut earn *liould tic taken not to ridge
it,'which is wry injurious, its it carries ofl"the
rain from the corn which requires a plentiful
mipply of moisture, espceiully when coring.
Many farmers purauo n quin differentcourie,
just skimming the surface, mid planting their
seed tlmprun the top of the gtmmJ; the eon-
sequence is that the mots, unable to penetrate
the hard earth beneath, afford hut little rmato-
nanre to the plants which run up spindliiȣi
and beingstften exposed to drought, yield hut
tt seitniv crop; this may often be seen by ex
amining the nntrows of corn w here tlm ground
could not bo .well ploughed. AA'hai aemns in
have led to inis practice is the cultivation of
new ground where it i-onid not hi; ploughed
deep. Mtc tilrenglh of llio soil produrcs almn-
datyjy >'ith any kind of cqljurn. Tho super
ficial fi-inor i-oiitinnes skimming the surluce
until .i In enmes exhausted, when supposing
the land w rn mil lie ttltd'dims n to wiser cul
tivator*. Another error .which snnte practice,
it so hsurd h« aim. si in carry «ith it, its own
Cnnfotati m; this is to plough so deep u* to cut
and mangle the root* of corn, with the idea of

It has been the custom of the General Government
heretofore, to pay uunualjy into the hands ofu few des
potic chief;*, n considerable amount of money, for the
use of the chi* Ih, lien*! men, warrior?, fccc. of the Che*
roll*-#* tribe of Indians. It having been useertuim'd,
that Ih«aunuiiu-M wer#* ru*t faithfully paid over to the

If, ugiccubly to “ the foru»a and require menta of the
constitution,” which those gentlemen prate so mm h
about, the wishes of I he people oil this subject have
failed of sacvt**®, the failure lias at least taught them
an excellent Icsri'in, and one, Ion, which they will not
he lung iu teaching practicully l*» their self cieated
dictator!), viz. that they nre sovereign, and that their
will must and shall ho obeyed. It is truly tho very
quintckCi iKM* of lire ridiculous, to hear those Gentlemen
talk about the forms and requirements of the comMittr
tin:*, as tlioiipli they had labored hard ami toiled long,
had used every exertion and strained every rn’ivc, to
produceu reform in the Legislature, neiecably to tlioae
“ forms and requirements,” when it is too notorious to
hr* controverted, that they and tireir tools in the Legi*
Inline, have always, either directly *n indirectly, pal*
sod nnd defeated the exertions of the friends of reform
in that body. Bn; say they by way of apology for their
rcekless course, “ ull attempts made at lids question
hava been of a party character.*’ Imb ed I Now this
is truly a very precious acknowledgment—one a little
uinrccandid than we had n light to expect. That the
Troup parly have always labored faithfully for the peo
ple on this impornnt subject is true, and so far have
*• ull the attempts" been • fa parly character ; and, on
the other hand, the lenders (mil lIn* great bo«i\) of the
(/lark party, have labored ns faithfully in . pposition to
it; and this certainly has been the means of giving to
it a littU more “ party character. 1
Again, those gentlemen seem to have been laboring
under tli« idea that the Troup parly arc desirous to re
store “their failing fortunes;” and that lor*, by intro
ducing reform in our Legislature!! Here is another
compliment; aud if merited, it comes at b ust very tmt
expectedly from therm Agreeably t*» their showing,
then, reform m (lie Legislature will build up ** the lad
ing fortuncs”id the Troup party—ergo, the greater lire
ilegret* of corruption iu that »ody, the better will their
party he enabled to keep afloat.
But to be sciinus—those gentlemen claim for their
party, ut present, a plurality of voters. Now , if they
believe wha< they say, and we must not d.-uht their
sincerity, we would ask them what would their party
have to fear in a convention of tho people mi this nr
any other subject ? Why, they would have every thing
to hope ami nothing to f» ur; atui d would lie at range
indeed if the people, u majority of whom are their poli
tical opponents, should lend their aid iu “building up
the failing fortunes” of the Troup party.
Tho*e gentlemen iu the article alluded to, seem, fur
ther, lobe rather fearful of trusting Governor Lumpkin
in this matter, to the dictates of his better judgment
kind feelings. They say to him0h.it he must nut serve
on ti.’o Central Committee— that it would be not «.nh
u indecorous,” but “incompatible for the executive 1 ’
to do so. Heaven preserve us! Indecorous lur il-
eon Lumpkin t a.’ nerve the people? 'by, time was
when those gentlemen would have persuaded us that
they—even they, wet.e ready at any time to make an
altar of their precious hod»*’s, and *»n it sacrifice V\ deon
Lumpkin, a willing offering, if necessary, for the good
of the people. But uuw, alas! to further the interests
of the people, the use of ins name simply on a commit*
tee, would beindec* rous.&ic.

tli« n why do the people hold tt so important
the election ot u I’rcftident, wise, dneree.l, and patrio
tic? A man of straw won d *!»> a* well as tin; greatest
and beat of our bous. But wc believe that it is the
imperious duly of the Chief Mu^is.iute of the Union,
lu witliludd all aid, or countenance, to the execution of
u decree ot the court, which directly, or indirectly vio
lates u constitutional provision, or interferes vitha
constitutional light; for by I.is oath, lie pledgee him-
*clf to preserve, support, and defend the (-onstitution.
If then, Georgia has, titular the Con strut ion, the light
ot jtirntdietion over the persons anil thingn within h* i
chartered limit*, and the effort ol lhr decision of the
court, is to divest that right of jurisdiction, can lie, with
un eye, resting upon his outh, lend the aid of the exe
cutive arm io execute that decision ? He cannot, he
will not. Thin right of u ithliolding the means of exe
cuting unconstitutional laws, is a necessary and harm-
loss check upon tho otherwise arbitrary powers of the
Supreme Court; for if that tribunal he indeed Supreme,
then my advice to my fellow citizen* would be,—come
let us calculate the value of the Union ; for tho liberties
of the republic, and the honor of the confederacy i«
merged in the power of a court; unrestrained, unquali
fied, wide in it* range, onward in its couibc and deso
lating in its progress.
1 have said that this check upon the court, and
through the court upon the Congress, is harmless. 1
ight he dangerous, in the hands of an
j unprincipled ty rant, or a chartered libertine; but we
may not look null much wfeertainty to the elevation of
micli an one to the Presidential chair. V\ e look to the |
purity of the people, and the sanctity of tlie elective
fruiichist as a guarantee against executive corruption.
But il it be an evil, it is a necessary evil, and al! go-
veminent* are necessary evils. The court or the exe
cutive must in In* iiiiAlunce bo supreme, am! 1* it mure
(le«irable that this supremacy should rest with theexc-1
cutive or the court? The court have au unlimited
tenure ol office, and are irresponsible, but by impeach
ment ; whereas the President i* not only liable to iin-
peaeliim ii!, lint at the expiration of each term of fo
...... * , , . , 1 years, is responsible to the people. It is no unmean-
rv to tin American merchants who may have sullcred mg dictum, that ouirfis a government of check* anti

previous application, the Judge declined fur-
tiisliutg a copy, being unwilling that his opin

with that of Ihe Courl,lest it mieht be open lo
the imputation of having a tendency lo impair
the weight of Kip deer-inn and mandate in Geo

decision of the Court was virtually unanimous
until the time should arrive when flic ptihlira-
lion could have nxi eflcct on iho rourso lo bo
taken by flic authoiites of Georgia. As that
course must have been already taken, thero
can be no objection lo ihe publication, and Iho

the Judges on flic interesting quest inns which
arose in that case. Judge Baldwin slated iu
