Con. If there is one political curse in (he vc ngoaiice of heaven, or a dire scourge in the horrors of war, greater than another, it is the flinging into nolice in times of peace, those up start udvQittururs whom the chan ces of battle or the freaks of fortune, iu cru el sport, have doomed to he great. I know 1 shall he well understood in this remark even if 1 leave its application to the most common observation. The late war pre sents an experience on this subject which is constantly seen and will continue to be felt through many an unquiet season of public ,Blairs. Individuals, formerly un heard of out of their parish, nnd if known even there, known only for thr ir moderate grade of intellect mid the still more humble linrartcr of their pursuits now fill die high- st stations of the government, nnd ate dai ly eulogised for talents and qualities, which, one fortunate victory out of the barren field of their lives, would leave (hem the subjects of the most exquisite ridicule* Rut the worst part of this mischief is, they are of ten selected for service and the execution of objects, beyond the reach of their capu city, and feeling their incompeteney, they rely upon the .ldveiritintis circumstance of their sudden fame, and this either liurri them into insolence or betrays them into er ror. It has been the peculiar misfortune of Georgia, more than once to sulferfrom these musbroonsof fortune, uttd she is at present undergoing n severe discipline, well mini luted to try her p iticncc. It is my intention iu this number, by way of proving,.s' ill fur ther, the “ mortifying disrespect” We huv undeservedly received from the general gc veinment, to examine into .the eortdne* r several of these self-important pvr*ntinp( belonging to that establishment And I slnll begin first with one John Crowell.— Thismorson, it is well known, is railed tin Indiri Agent, hut if a long list of dish est acts, and a perfect contempt of nil law and authority constitute any portion of : crime, there ih not a page of the penal ou lender that does not attest how much In* is misnaindd. The injury he has done to Georgia and the insults ofl‘» red to her pub lic authorities. I affirm to he without a par allel in the history of any country, much less one, ns sovereign and independent us that to who It he belongs. Tho general government, if not from duty, at least from decorum, owes it to the stales to protect them Irfun insult* Tt should remember ji- own origin, it is the offspring of favor, tli-s mere creature of bounty,and derives all iu power from the states. A contumely tlien from on© t*f irs highest officers would he extremely ungracious, but coming from one of its veriest creatures, a reptile that creeps, and hosinears ns he crawls, produces a hu miliation of the most insupportable degra dation. It will bo well to examine flic con duct of this man in two points of view most palpably indicated hy tho notorious finds of Ins cum.—1st. In relation to his now their efforts fur another Treaty at the Indian Springs, in February the Indians were again as-^mlded. Tho Sub-Agent having been romovi d a-a punishment for Ins conduct, the Cherokee* reprimanded, 1 the Agent himself iu but u moderate spirit of rehuke, instructed to pursue a dif ferent course, he merely changed his mode of operations from an open to a secret hos tility to the measures of the Commissioner* Ilia course was of III" most deceitful and in sidious character. In the council of the Indians, when tho Commissioners were pre sent, lie W'oultl advise n disposition of tho lands, us boing the wish of their father tho President. At night, aided by his Interpre ter, ho would seek to dislodge whatever fit orablu impressions his constrained openness bad made. Finding, liowu ver, at last, from the awknrdneas of iiissHuatioii, tho ditfier* cnee of limn and place lor bolding the treaty, the absence of many of his active minions, tho yielding temper of tho Indi ans and tho increased decision of his go veminent, as evinced by the lirinncvsof their Commissioners, that a treaty was tapidly tending to a consummation, lie seduced one of the mast powerful and influential tribes, who hud already expressed their wil lingness to treat, seeictly to aliandoti the treaty ground, with a hope that their sudden departure would immediately break up the negociation. But in this ho was disappointed. The Treaty was made, arid made by bis open persuasion*, without any protest by him al the time as to the number or ohurar ter of the InJians.— For every one must at once perceive that if there weie not a antiicieiit number of Indi ans or Chiefs of high or low degree, to le gally enter into a treaty, it was Ins hounden duty, nnd due to the Commissiouurs, so to inform them, and not to have led them by the part he took, into such a serious error. Ho attested tho Treaty, as Indian Agent, and it vv.is dispatched to the government for ratification But this crafty instiumunt of intriirtio, this arch ndvotsary of Georgia, eagerly bent upon defeating the treaty, and willing to spare neither pains uoi expense to oreompbsh that object, determined, by a rapid journey, to get ahead of tho treaty, and l»v tho most mlumous and false rapre- siintati'iNs to the Secretary of War, forestall tho Commissioners in the confirmation of that treaty. Apprehending however a mis carriage of his artful design, before he Blur ted tiom the treaty ground, and on the next day alter, lie had nssitiud in making it, and o»1'‘Slcd tt officially, bo addressed a letter to tlmt officer, stating, that the “ Treaty was in direct violation id’ injunctions, that it ratified, it might produce, a horrid state of th ngsiemong the Indians—that, with tin ex< eption of McIntosh, and perhaps two others, the .signatures to this treaty are cith er »i lie fa of low grade, or not Chiefs at all ; ,md these signers are from eight towns onlv, vvhon there aro lifly-six in the nation.” Tins letter was shortly backed hy personal inter views with tho Sceietary, nnd tiie whole ol Ins influence (to besure, among honest men, but little) was exerted to tho utmost hut in vain, to prevent its ratification, lie vYHsaguui foiled hi ins expectation, and now having tho increased chagrin of repeated disapSointmeiith added to his original mo tive* for such indefatigable opposition, Im was prepared for any thing.

Accordingly lie convened the Indi ans al Broken Arrow in December last, for the purpose wl giving the Limed Mutes Commissioners an opportunity of treating for tho land*, hut it i* a imtonous fact und hameldl as it i* notorious, that by Ins open agency and Ls* obvious, and ituleed avowed exertion* of Ins £ub-Agonl, the Treaty was almost instantly del* uted. The Indians would not even parley upon the «mb- iec t. Tlio Commissioner* doubtless morti fied, but not cut in ly disheartened, having to their satisfaction, discovered the truocau- si s of tluir lailoio, resolved upon a couibc wjml, they hoped would, in future, remove ihe ohstarleo.

At this point it will be proper to present the double object of purpose, which guidrd the course oi this little though subtle politician.

Bui in order to evade tlie law, l.e lia< sal up two of bis brothers m the nation, at dillfirent places, lie uly to tlie exclusion of* all olliei white persons, as will in* shewn at Home future period, by un juesiioiiable testimony — These brother* liavu acquired a monopoly of the Indian trade, and have practiced up on those ignorant people, whose friends they so deceitfully ptoils* to be, tho most unheard of frauds and impositions Their real friend,the milbriimato Gen. McIntosh, hotter informed limn the rest, and witness ing their abused und degraded condition, resolved to supply bis countrymen with tlmsu necessaries and comforts which had been the subjec t of such unnrincinlcd ex tortion bv the Crowell’s; and to that end, established * store, as ho had a right to do, at hi* own plantation. And liote com menced tho animosity between tlio agent nnd that gallant chief. Tho former deter mined to ruin him if possible. Taking ad vantage of tlio power of bis office, and be lieving li” was too far out of tho sight of Ins government to be easily detected, he trcncli- eroimly essayed tir^t lo prov oke the jealousy of his countrymen against him. thicccoj- sapping bis influence and thereby averting tho succour of friends, lie readily inmciiu d ho could successfully crush him ith the weight of his authority. In the first lie succeeded as ho himself has the au dacity to boast, in a letter to that British sign to put down all competition ugninst his brothers, oven ut tho sacrifice of tlie heat interest of the natives, and the undoubted privilege of one of their favorite Chiefs, and also as betraying a private cause of grudge against that chief, in addition to the resentment provoked hy his manly conduct in tho treaty. What thou is the summary of tho evidence against this United States officer—He is found Out of his place, and in a state to which he docs not belong, ta king a part in the politics of that state, using his poisonnl influence and tho weight of his oflico to control its elections—declaring, upon boing disappointed, that lie would employ Lis public authority, against tho in terest of Georgia, lifter too, as ho avowed, it had been exerted in her favor, for no oth er reason, but because she Imd not elected a Governor to suit his wishes—persuading an United Mates Commissioner to uhnndoii his post, with a view to frustrate tlio just ex pectations of tho state, and thereby to in crease nnd continue the unfortunate excite ment which ho knew exiilcd against his own government, to nn extent already involving a strong suspicion o r her sincerity and good faith. Ttue to bis pledge, lie is afterwards found fallowing.tip his revenge, hy defeating tin* tre *'y at Riok. ti Arrow, attempting il at the Indian Springs by covert means, proceed- inpto the City of Washington and pretesting against it there ; failing in his purpose, re turning to tho Nation, consumed witk pas sion, and by working upon tlio Poolings of tlie deluded Indians, lie inflame* them to the highest pitch of resentment against that distinguished Warrior, McIntosh, tells thorn that ho is tho author of the treaty and the cause of the loss of their land—tint ho himself had done every thing in liis power to prevent it—that they must now help themselves, that while Me Intosh ia ab. cnt at Washington, they ought to Inirn Ins house* and destroy his property, and tlm only way they could gel iid of th trnrty was to destroy McIntosh and loscoin- rado*—McIntosh is in tho way of the com mercial pursuits of himself and brothers, about which there had been much angry feeling.

If th*. nr«- cccdingsof Major A. and (im.

Crowell was enti- t ed to tho constitutional prongntivc* in tho investigations before those officers But, does not Major A doe* not Gen G doo* not every citizen, know, that every * riiiuna! prosecution, before everv c 'ami jury, in every state, territory nnd ifi»trict „f tho United State*. i«, to all intents and pur poses, an ix parte proceeding, an incipient investigation, u prepnrntorv enquiry, in which the evidence on tho Hide of the pros ecution only, is introduced; and the accus ed i.i not informed of the nature of the ac cusation ; nor confronted with the witnes ses; nor allowed compulsory process; nor/ the aid of counsel f And yet, who ever imagined that the constitution of the Vnt- led {States was violated iu this regard ? “ But proceeding* before grand juries artj kept secret; and *o ought to have been tire proceedings before the committee.” It bos been wnl! remarked, that if the committed bad held secret session*, we should have beard much more complaint on this ground, than on that just stated: We should have heard ol plots, combinations, midnight pro ceedings, inquisitions, ir. &n. Unfortu nately lbr those who raise this objection. Commodore Uortcr, at the same time Rla- jor A. with tin* concurrence or approbation of Gen.G. was complaining of i!io.publi cation of tlie proceedings in Crowell * case, was complaining in Washington City,of the secrecy und nun publication of the proceed* inga iu relation to him, before & tribunal substantially similar to that which enquired into Crowell'* case, and for n aimibir pur-’♦ pone, as 1 understand it, namely, to ascertain the facts, and doicimine whether there was ground for li ial! But, it is said, tho committcoin Col.

In case* of im peaehment before tlio Fenalu of this slate (and tlio United State* too 1 apprehend) tho 'House of Representative*, on the ex amination of ex fwrte testimony, or testi mony on tho part of the prosecution only* proceed to docl'ire him guilty, or at -least, to bccub“ him, of high .crimes nud misde meanors, and to demand his punishment ; and it is not till he is placed on hii trial bo- f.irotho Honatn that lie hat* a constitutional right to have counsel, compulsory process, formation of the chargee, Ac. If anv suppose the grounds on which ihe authorities of this state accused CoL Crowell before the President, are in suffic ient, let thorn remember that it is declared in Jeflcrson’r Manual, pec. XHI.

If it lias been shown that the constitutional prnvLinns have not been infringed, it lias, at the same time, appear ed, that the principles of justice involved in. those provisions, have not been violalod, and, consequently, that Col.
