Mr. (irnce, a citisen of* this interesting country,
hriujs further news from tlm hclli^crenti*. The

The purpose of this grew! effort on the part of the
Majority may, we suppose, he stated plainly here,
without idle nee to any one,' because it is a purpose
which no indiv iduul tu that majority would desire
to conceal. The hills w hich have passed the Sen

State* into the Union, were before the House as in

legal fiction, is then culled a committee* Whilst *n

therefore of ending any debate in committee of t/io
whole, if tho minority persist in it, whatever may
he the will of the majority, hut l»y sitting it out. Tin*
majority in tho ease before us were detcimined to

they might ho nuhjoct to the operation of the Previ

Volt will percoivo by the date of this letter,
that xvc have moved our quarters. We hit now
posted oil n beautiful spot jtt-t beyond Kooch-

of lilies. We have with us three Regiments of
Infantry, one. battalion of horse consisting of four
companies under the command of Maj. Julius
(*. Alford, and one squadron of mounted Infan
try. A great portion of our force has keen do
larked to reinforce the posts on the (ieorgia
side.
(’apt. Harmony's company of (Jwiouett Ca
valry, posted nt ♦Shepherd's plantation, about 50
miles from here, # nud half a mile below Fort
Jones, have had n severe engagement with the
uiiimiy. They were attacked on the Oth inxl.
by t strong party nf th«x enemy, amounting to
His command at that time being
w hole engagement. \\ lieu he w as wounded
: and the I ttdians filing upon them in every cl tree-
; lion, lie had the presence of mind to order the
fence pulled down that the horses might escape
from the enemy. Themis no doubt a considcra-
I bb.* number of the -Indians fell, w bat number, it
is impossible to ascertain: •!() or4U k a renson-
; able computation. A friendly Indian sent to
i Jim Henry's camp, by whose baud the battle
I was fought, reports a very great number w ound
ed. Immediately after the battle, the Indians
. recrossed the river, and it appears, with consul-
< entitle precipitation. 'The saddle bags helong-
, ing to the company, were left unmolested in the
yard. Saddle blankets and a saddle w ere found
. on the bank of the Creek where the Indians
; crossed.
It is reported here that Ceil. .Monro at the bead
. of r 1 00 men from Irwiutoii bad advanced to the
1 camp of the hostile Indians on the Hatchuchuh-
bec, near bij* !* log. A heavy firing w as heard in
| that direction by Capt. IVarson and bis coiii-
| mnnd. who xvere detached to cruise on the steam
boat Reindeer, and w ere returning to Columbus.
The result of the battle between (Ion. Mnoro
and the Indians is not certainly known. There
seems tube very little doubt that an engagement
had taken place. I am of opinion that tho
movement was a proeipitato one, hut neverthe
less, I hope it Ims hoon successful. We regret
The M iner’s Keeordcr, published at Dahloh-
nrga, Lumpkin comity, in one of its editorials ;
on the subject of the reported Cherokee dislur- i
hanees, says, “ It is true, the ('herokees are in 1
a restless condition, hut not more so than they 1
have been since (Jcorgln first extended her laws ,
over them. And it. is also true that very many 1
of them are bitterly opposed to the treaty. Vet *
the idea, that there will he extensive hostilities j
committed by these people upon our citizens, i
w e consider w holly groundless and without ren- I
son. If any mischief is committed by them, it
is our full conviction, it will bo among them
selves alone.” • i
We see it stated in the Savannah (lerrgian,
that Col. Twiggs, of tin* U. S. Army, has been
nominated to the Senate, as Colonel of the new
Regiment of Dragoons. “ With such a com

Some hostile Indians to the number of twen

NVo hive had two alarms, sim c I wrote you
last. An individual by the natiie.of Fhitii/.y, he-
louring to tip. Oglethorpe company, was out
llillcn Jowctt.—-'File trial of Richard F. Ro
binson, 011 no indictment for the murder of the
unfortunate female whose name heads this arti
cle, nnd which has created so much excitement
in New York, terminated on tlicHtli itist. in the
honorable acquittal of the accused.
The trial xv;ts an exceedingly interesting one,
but tbc details are so voluminous as to prevent
our tipreading them before our renders. We
have only room fertile insertion of the follow
ing, which xve take from tho New York Adver
tiser.
We accord most heartily with Judge Ed
wards in lux charge to the Jury relative to (be
weight w hich should be attached te certain tes
timony adduced on the trial.
“ Acquit tot hf ftohinxon.—Judge F.d wards charged
tho Jury ut grc*it length, recapitulating tho testimony,
instructing the Jury upon points of law and ihu intereii-
ers to la* made from ih<* various facts and circumstance*
which were developed ill tho course of the trial.
He churprtf them particularly in reference to the testi
mony of the dissolute females, irho had given evidence in
the ease, directing them that irhenercr the testimony of
Mrs. Toirnsend, Emma French amt Elizabeth Hatters,
came in collision iri/Ji that of reputable teitnesses, the
former should be set aside and disregarded.
At half past 1*2 o’clock, thn jury retired; and
minutes threuftor returned into court \
NOT GUILTY.
The annunciation of the verdict was followed by a »i-
inultniK'oiiM hurst of choers from the spectators.
From the moment of the arrest of the prisoner, up to
the awful moment when the jury were to pronounce up
on his life or dentil, ho never netruyed the slighest emo
tion. \Vhon tho jury returned to the court w ith their
verdict, the prisoner was directed to stand up and look
upon the jurors, fir did so with undaunted front; hut
no sooner were tho words “not guilty,” pronounced by
the foreman, than lie sank, overpowered by his findings,
upon the neck of his vennrahlo father, nnd wept liken
child.
The Court then directed that the prisoner he disrhartr-
ed; proclamation of which being immediately made,
Richard l\ Knhiuson was set nt liberty, and, in company
with his fitlierand Mr. Iloxie, loft the Hull.”
MU. ADAMS’ SPEECH,
A Ye commence to-day 11 Speech of the lion. John
Q. Adams, which \\« recommend to the serious at
tentioii of our renders. It is a very interesting and
oeraffiounllx quite eloquent speech. The llonorn-
hlc gentleman'* settled grudge towards the South,
betrays itself throughout. Hi* speculations are
comprehensive, and no plausible, that we tuny set J
them dow n at not more than half \isionary. lie
said much that ought justly to alarm
; the people nf the South as they look forward into
[ the future, and much to unite tlio xv hole South for
ouiinou protection. As the rcpreaeni/ilivu of a
the
hostile principles ami unfriendly feeling which In*
entertains towards tho South and its institutions; and
hv showing ns that Texas is actually fighting the
battle of Southern iiiBtitiitiouB, he urges the strong
est inducement to the South, to bid thu Tcxiuus God
speed, nnd to aid them as much tu wo cun consist-
ly with iiHliotiul good faith, lli* iiUrn-consolidntioii
politic* too, uro sublimely developed in the prepos
terous doolrino which he avow*, vis 1 That Con-
gross buspuKtr to cede u State, in other words, may
sett a Stale! ! On the whole, it is n Speech well cal
culated to work well for those to whom the speaker
is most hostile, and Ining about tlio veiy results
which lie moat dreads, viz: Southern union, South
ern vigilance, and consequently Southern safety.
Much therefore a* lie* hates us all, we cannot find it
in our hearts toree.iproeato the amiable feeling—but
in tlie name of tlio “ lieterogeuioii*,” “Slave-hold
ing,” “Indian killing” Southern population, nnd
limit* “ mutinous volunteers,"—xve thank .Mr. Adams
much for the good fruit of his ill-w ill, for shewing os
the Abolition curds—for telling us of the imminent
daugcr* which thickly beset us, and for warning us
to prepare forthwith for defc
It is amusing to sec, in apeaking of our Indiiio nf-
flairs, how complacently he expatiates on what he
would have secured uud achieved for tlio glory «*f
the Nation, ami the huppiiuess of muiikiud, had he
been permitted the exercise of unlimited power, un
der the General Welfare principle. How bitterly
lie remembers Georgia for having checked his bene
ficent career, and placed tlio Nullification extin
guisher upon his imperial glory ! The South could
not liavo had ns much to rouso, in the most gouerous
appeal of her own most eloquent orators, as in this
explosion of spleen. We trust that hereafter all
freedom of speech, and facility for his developments,
will he allowed Mr. Adams, und that wc shall often
hear from him. The blunderbuss ho fires at the
South, does wonders in its recoil.—[C'/». Mercury.
Troy res* uf the Abolitionist*.—“ In pri of (says the
New York Evening Star,) that the Abolitionists nre
