The utmost that could he effected is the additional or supplemental at tide enclo sed The piice agreed to lie psid is large, for the additional extent of country acquired.— It was given, however without regret, in Ihe belief that it wotdd place this unpleasant sub jrct on a footing tha| would be acceptable to Georgia, anti thereby terminate » state of things whose continuance could be contempla ted only with regret.

I hare the honor to he, your obedient ser rant, JAMES BARBOUR. The President of the United States. irosent who resided south of Msson's and Jickson’s line. Th? principles advanced in the report had beunadu| led long before, and whenever the report should be celled up for consideration, they would be vindi cated, however daring they might seem to the honorable gentleman. Mr. VINTON, ofOliio, moved to la$‘ the resolution on the tnble, but withdrew the motion at the request of Mr. BRENT, who said the subject was inteiesting not only to Southern men, hut of as murh consequence to New York, and the Northern States. It was not to the decis ion in- the report that lie had any objections. He was willing that the committee should say that Larche was not entitled to relief under the net of 1816. He moved the post poneinent to Tuesday, and hoped the sub ject would then bn considered. Mr. FORSYTH said, he saw no need of any postponement. Tho House was told that this principle had often been presented in previous reports, and tacitly acquiesced in. He believed that gentlemen were mis taken. The question lay within a small compass. The principle on which the claim was to be settled was very simple Mr. BRENT here callod the gentleman to order; as going into the merits on a mere question of postponement. The CHAIR decided that the gentleman was tiavclling too far into the merits of the main question, and must confine his remarks to the postponement alono. Mr. FORSYTH said, that he was not about to elder into the merits of the report, but simply to suite a fact, which bore on the question of postponement. The principle asserted by the committee is this, that the Government of the United States have a right to make use of the slaves in the Sou them States as militia, and have a right to put arms in their bands. This is a princi ple he had never heard maintained, or ut tered before. It had certainly never been heard ofin this Hall. It is against this that we protest 1 will not characterise the prin ciple ns I think it deserves, because I know l by gentleman does net mean to assail us. But the principle is one which strikes at the very root of our peace and safnty. Tho question of property is nulhing—the princi pie is all. On Saturday morning, wc were merely enabled to announce the confirmation of the Crock Treaty by the Senate. This morn iug, we give the Treaty at large. The vote on its confirmation was as follows : YEAS—-Messrs.

(HT To «mblo us to givo the rupresputn lien of the lines of the new treaty, wc hav been compelled to omit the toasts given at tho dinner lately given to Mr. Crawford at Monroe, Walton county. The Trcitij—We arc at length enabled to |.iy the Now Troatv, in an olHeiul shape, before our readers. Every doubt is now re moved. The thing stands forth in its own deformity. Tho people of (teorgia will learn with astonishment, and wo hope with tliu deepest indignation, that tho old Treaty, whic * sjavc them nil tlie.ir land, has been an nulled, nivl that by the new one a tract of country containing about one million two hundred thousand acres, (according to Tan ner’s map) hasjjoen taken from them, and not only given to lie Indians, but guaran tied to them. If the ©yes of our peoplearr not now opened to the inaehinations of Ad.uns,Crowd, Gaines, Andrews,undthose of our own citizens who have afforded them countenance and favor, then do we utteily despair, of their being able to fuel as Georgians ought to fuel. We have, with the assistance of the inge nious Mr. Kk!!>, made a cut representing the Tines of this now treaty, ami also show ing tho tract of country lost by it. It is co pied from Tanner s Map, published last vear, which has highor claims to accuracy than any other with which wo arc acquaint ed. We refer our readers to it ; and by an inspection of it they will gain in a few min utes more infoimation than from a whole column of description. If Tanner’s map ■be correct, our conclusions as to tl»e quan tity of land lost are true. i&ntiry—-AVhnt will the people of Geor gia w»v now {those of them, wc mean, who .have so bitterly denounced Gov.

At the head of which 2 am prom* lo see one so willing, and so able, to steer her hafely through the winds and breakers of the political storm which rageslroui the four q,nr lersof the Heavens, as is the present incum bent of the executive department. With this introduction, gentlemen, you must remain sat.sfied for the present; ami permit me proceed to the point. I see in some of the lust papers, that Doct Tomlinson Fort is a candidate to represent this district in the next Congress. The Doc tor is u iu,\a of worth, ! have no doubt—ant many of my neighbors think as I do—but wn.il (before the election day comes on) to know' who the Doctor intends joining himself to, if ue should elect him? Whether to the i\o. them o/ iatocrats. or the npublicans of the South. Now, it is well known, that the Doctor is not at all bashful or timid, in showing himself to the people—for we may remember, that ouee upon a lime, after the adjournment of the Legislature (of which he was a member) lie came boldly out to the people—and by publish ing his intended speech in your paper, showed them what he would have said for them, if he h id not been so unfortunate ns to loose the lints of dealing it out lo the House. But no matter, *' Gideon is yet in Israel”—he placed before our eyes what he had cut and dried for us Twnsour misfortune, not his, that lie did n«»t speak it—he had his penny worth in showing us what lie would and could have done, had u time amitide permitted ’* Now, I do complain that we lost the speaking of the Doctor’s spec hi—I dare say the Doctor has yet the original in manuscript—but we lost the effect ii might have produced on ihe House —and unquestionably we, the readers, lost ma ny of ils beauties—Your plant homespun man ner of telling a man’s story for him, takes off all the rhetorical nourishes with which a speech may be embellished in the speaking of arely quits the field with at much virtu® at ne ©titered it. The heart becomes more or • orrupted, the judgment swayed, and com- <g from such a theatre to the judgment seat, he is less qualified for cool ^deliberate investi gation than Indore, and much more under the influence of his prejudices than if he had tome from th® study of Coke or Blackstone. The gladiator may talk of tilts and tourna ments—the soldier of chivalry mid war, the political zealot may enter the arena erf party whites, and swear allegiance to his chief— Sut he who fills this bench has been selected and set apart for the discharge of higher and (wider duties. He is called upon to adminis ter the laws of his country, and to do equal and even handed Justice to all men, of every faith and every (and.

But above all wo want lo know what the Doctor thinks of Mr Adam*’opinion about the lepresenta- live being filtered by the will of his constitu ents ;—and particularly of Mr. Adams project of building ii^lit boil«es of the skies. If the Doctor will do this, (and surely one good turn deserves amrlier) wc pledge ourselves to vote for him, if wc like the side of (lie question lie advocates, and do not change our opinions of him before the clay of trial. But let us here lake leave of him, hoping he will nvail him self of our hind, and stand confessed before the public view. TRUEPENNY. CHARGE Of his honor William Sen i jv. Judge of the Superior courts for the Middle District ot Georgia to the Gram! Jury of Washington county, at March Term, lJ-G. Mr. Foreman, and Gentleman i f the Grand Jury. The people of Georgia reposing confidence in my integrity and abilities, luve been pleas ed to rail me to this high office of honor and responsibility; and whilst I lee{ gialeful lo them lor their kindness touie, I shall endea vor so to conduct myself in the discharge of the various duties of the bench, as not to fas* ii that confidence, or cast a t ensure on their judgment. iu order pioperly, to discharge the duties of my office, two things are necessary ; first, to qualify myself to decide according to law ; and secondly, to abstain from all violence of party feeling, whereby my prejudices may be enlisted, «ud my judgment warped from the true line of rectitude The one will inform th® mind, and the other will keep the heart right. All men in this fice republic have a right t» fiieir opinions on any subject, whether reli gious, moral, or political, and to express those opinions on proper occasions, and in proper places, and 1 as a freeman always have,and always will exercise that right. But 1 hold the doctrine that men in office should endea vor to divest themselves ol all violence of leel tug om any Riihj-ct,hnd come to the discharge ol theiriluties, wltogeth'r unbiased, the one way or the other, ai d more particulai Iv such offi. eis as have ut.y judicial lunctions to per fvtn iu d'ridi.g uiittcis of controversy be- twee • their fellow -citizen* f different creed* aul opinion- For it Judge, lor » stance ».o.er t ir li't* 11 point » .iMpui l ion, and pai ticninrly at a period id great excitement, he high calling and suffer himself to be con verted into n political machine, he forfeit* all claim to the public confidence, and public res pect, and eo longer deserves to wear the er mine, or to sit upon the wool sack. These remarks, gentlemen, will in tome measure apply to you as wallas me. As grand and special jurors you are called upon to de cide matters of controversy between your fel low citizens, and between the state and the. citizen, and you are sworn to do so, “ without favor or affection to eiiher party” and with out envy, hatred ®r malice, fear and reward.” It is then your duty as men, as Christians, ns republicans^ to divest your minds of all preju dice or partiality, and come to the investiga tion of a cause uninfluenced by parly consid erations, by private friendship or private enun ‘y* The Grand Jury mnst consist of not less then eighteen, nor more than 33 members, but twetve concurring in opinion are competent to find a bill or make apresentment. Thu names of eighteen at least should however be tuner- t« d m such bill or presentment, that it may np pear there was a full Jury. The law has made it iny> duty to give you speciality in charge two acts of the General A assembly. One in regard to tradinr with slaves, and th® other ou the subject of gam ing. The first is well calculated to preserve die morals of our colored population, and to restrain our white citizens from receiving slo len goods end violating the Sabbath day.— This act then should be rigidly enforced foi the honor and welfare of the state, for reallv the constant, and I may say open violations of this law oil the Sablmth day in our cities and towns, is a disgrace to the moral character ol the country. The character ol a common in former is odious in theryes of the people, but I believe that lie who should take upon himsell the trouble to bring the violators of iliis law to juftice would receive the thanks and ap probation of every good and virtuous man The act in relation to g.iming was also in tended to improve the morals ol the people and provides against a vice which is too preva lent in this state. But the art defeats itscll by extending ns well to the innocent amusement!* of the virtuous, as to the guilty employment ol the vicious. It is immoral and wrong to gel drunk, and drunkencss is a crime which ought to be punished,but it is perfectly innocent oc casionally—to lake a glass of wine or spirit and water. So also in relation to gaming, ii is perfectly innocent for a man to piaj a game ot chess or backgammon with liis wife or his friend ; but when he goes to tiie gambling ta ble ami takes a hand at lew or pass dice, lie then commits a crime,because by such a course of life he jeopardizes his fortune, his health, am! reputation,and renders bis family anhap py. It istho excess both in drinking and gam iug which constitutes the crime, and hence if the act were so modified as to operate only on those who deserve punishment; the public sentinietil would bein invar of i(,and the people gracratly would be disposed to bring real gum birrs to the punishment they deserve. According to the oath you have taken, you are hound to present all criminal mailers which shall come to your knowledge or be gi ven you in charge, but yon arc not required to present any matins within your knowledge before you were impaimelled and sworn.— These are at your own discretion, and you may or may not present iliem The subject of a Supreme Court for the ror reel ion of errors in law, is one which 1 con ider of such viial importance to the coun try that I feel it my duty to call yoor attention to it. Many persons have heretofore been op posed lo such a Court, not because they did not wish to remedy an evil, and thereby bene fit the country, but because they have been ig norant of the real nature an 1 intention of kucIi an institution. Mom persons are under the impression that if a Supreme court be luhlillicd, they will be compelled to attend there with their wilii; sues, and have the facts tried in the same, manner that causes are now tried in Circuit courts: but iliis iv not the fact, for in that court there will be no jury, and no matter of fact will be tlu-re tried, so that no penmn will attend that court except the attor neys concerned in the cause. Tne facts ol each case will be tried by a jury in the county where the defciula.it resides, as they now are, and no cause will be carried up to that court, unless there should be a difference of opinion upon the law, and the decision of the Judgi should be thought wrong. In such care hi exception will he taken to the opinion of ihe Judge below, and the law upon w liic.’i opinion was pronounced will be the subject of investigation by the Supreme court, w hose de cision will be final and conclusive, not only be tween parties to that suit, but also iu all other cases hinging on the same question ; became the decision of (his court will be published, and all she circuit Judges willbebouud to gether. Ihe great difficulty which exists under our present system is this; licit we have no law in Georgia, but only the laws of the different circuits, and a man’s rights maybe ouc thing in this circuit, uud another in that. In one he may recover upon a certain state of facts whilst in another under the same circumstan ces he could not succeed. And even in the same circuit the law is not uniform, for every new Judge ntbsl determine for himself, and hence every three years all are liable to have new laws, or rather new decisions in every cir cuit. The powers which each Judge now pos sess lire such as no single individual ought to hare in n government like ours, for, liis opin ions are the law of the laud, whether right or wrong, and they are subject to no ro\i»iun or control. Perhaps I cannot give a better idea of the nature of this court than by assim ilating it to the Superior court in the relation which it stands in regard to justices conns, because the object of a Supremo court is (o correct the errors in law of the several Supe rior courts, exactly in the same way that the Superior courts now correct the errors of the Justices courts, for you all know, tka* if the justice or jury makes a decision contrary to law, the matter is brought up by certiorari, and the Judge determines whether there be any error in the court below, but the matter is never tried by a jury in the Superior court; and if the Judge think the decision below right, lie confirms it, and if wrong he grants a new trial. The Judge corrects the errors of all the justices w ithin liis circuit, mid we only want a Supreme court to correct lit rors of all the Judges in the State, so as to Imve on*- uniform rule to govern all the good people of Georgia, no mailer in what section of the State they may reside. This much gentlemen, I have thought pro per to say to you upon this very inteiesting subject, mid if you should believe as 1 do that such a court is necessary to protect our right you will notice it in youi presentments in such •nmiuer as your own good *en*e may dictate.
