Milledoeville, November 4, 1817. 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.
