I Stats Legislature.—Yesterday being
■lie time, fixed by law for the meeting of
■the general assembly of this state, a num
of members appeared, and were
qualified; but as there was not a quorum
present, they separated without doing a
ny business. Both Houses will be organ
ized this day. To-morrow, the ceimuu
jiication of the* executive will probably
be received; and on Thursday, tire Le
gislature will make choice of a governor
for the ensuing two years. The other
elections will not come on before Satur
day, ifso soon. No correct opinion cqn
ret be formed as to the length of the ap
proaching session, or the interest which
■may characterize its proceedings*
We are informed, that a large portion
ofthe country lately ceded to the United
States by the Cherokee Indians, in ex
change for an equal quantity < f western
land, is found on investigation to be with
in the limits of the Creek Nation. The
conflicting claims of these tribes to the
disputed territory, has been settled in an
amicable manner, (although at one time
the controversy was likely to produce a
war between them,) by a council of their
respective chiefs, chosen to discuss and
decide the matter. Isa suitable indem
nity be not made to our government by
the Cherokees, tlie existing treaty with
them on this subject, will doubtless be
annulled.
Wc have no recent information from
general Gains. The last accounts of his
contemplated expedition against the hos
tile
lar force on their rrtarch for Fort Scott,
winch is in the vicinity of the unfriendly
savages. It is not imprpbable but his ap
proach will inspire* such dread as to cause
them to sue for peace, and thus prevent
die effusion of blood.
From Amelia.
We have received information from a
respectable quarter, that on the 25th of
last month, a schooner from Turk’s Is
land, arrived at Fernandina. She had
on board a number of disbanded English
officers who came in expectation offinding
MacGregor in command, and of joining
bis forced; but who on learning that he
had reached Nassau, took passage for
Venezuela onboard the congress,commo
dore Parker. Prize goods at Fernandina
were selling high; and the bickering be
tween the troops of col.lrvin and Aury’s
dusky brigands still continued. Much
as we have at heart the independence
of South America and the emancipation
of theFloridas, we had rather that they
would remain in bondage forever, than
' see them liberated through the agency of
the Savages of St. Dotmngo; than whom
we certainly have, along our southern
frontier, more disagreeable neighbors. It
is hoped that their commander may take
timely measures to r&hpove them, or per
haps he will receive a more unwelcome
visit than he yet dreams of. 8. RepJ
