ven though it should happen to militate with
the Obiter Dictum of a neighboring Journal.
Wo cannot help it that the Editor of the N. C.
Journal ” Apprehends that Georgia acquired a
perfect title to all the lands' included in the
treaty of the Indian Springs' and cannot bo di
vested of them by any subsequent treaty to
which she is not a party.” Wo entertain a
different apprehension; nnd probably havo as
good a right to it, as that editor to his, but as
ho has not favored us with' his reasonings in
support of his “ apprehensions” we enter into
no argument with him but nre ready to do so
whenever he gives Itis readers his argument.
The “assumption of a position is an entirely
different thing from maintaining it. The Uni
ted States have by a solemn treaty, ratified by
the constituted and constitutional authorities,
guaranteed to the Creek Indians tho peaceable
possession of certain territories, and it is “ No
argument with us” that there was a former
treaty, upon the same subject matter, which
this treaty, did away. Leges posterioresprt-
ores contraria abrogunt. The last treaty is a
law of the United States and without stopping
to enquire into the justice or injustice of it, it
is sufficient for us and for the country to know
that it is a law, and as such tho State of Geor
gia, anil every other state, and individual is
bound by it, and one provision of that bond, let
it be recollected, is for tho people of this union
to.assist individually and collectively in enforc
ing its execution. Vested rights? Pray, be
good enough to lot us know what is mount by
vested rights ? -A right that would havo be
come perfect in the State of Georgia, at a cer
tain time, is before that time, varied by tho au
thorities holding the exclusive right to do so,
this is a “vested right” with a vengeance.
Certain editors seem to have a vested right to.
an indiscriminate opposition to every act of our
government, good, bad, and indifferent, and
we feel no desire to disturb them in it. But
with as littlo partiality for the present adminis
tration as any of them can possibiy have, we
have no idea of opposing it into popularity.
Tho administration lias vulnerable points
enough heaven knows, without this unremitting
system of attack upon invulnerable ones.

Remarkable Adventure. On the 19th inst. an the
owners and occupants of machinery on Brown’s'Mill
Race, were engaged in clearing it from ice that had ac
cumulated, Joel Pound was very active in assisting,
directly in front orovcr.the waste gate at the cotton
factory, in guiding large piece's of ice through, for the
purpose of cicaringthc channel. At this moment, the
gate, which had been elevated some feetnpon.thcthvn
level of the water, )iy the removal of a large piece of
ice, suddenly fell, and the lever on the opposite side
was brought directly over, and struck said Pound on
the head, hy which he was plunged into the water.
Lawrence F. llyckman immediately caught himliy

currant about 10 rods from the base of tbe fail, where
he secured himself-bv clinging to somo cakes oficc,
and was soon rescued by those engaged with him.—
lie was taken to his brother's where he has reccivet;

Under this arrangement, it is believed, the Macon T'ei.-
eorath will possess attractions, at a source of informa
tion, equal to any journal in the dale. To those in par
ticular, who are expecting, from specks in the horizon
and signs in the heavens, to see Camak County shortly
the theatre of important events, and may wish intelli
gence from the nearest source, it It>U not be necessary lo
mention the adeantagts of this paper.
We will add, here, that the continued swelling of our
subscription list, deuumds continued exertion, and we
pledge ourselves, that no pains will be spared to render
our labors deterring of the patronage bestowed upon us.
Since ffce publication of our notire, requiring subscri
bers to pay in advance, we have observed no perceptible
diminution in the number of uppHcaSvns for subscrip-
tion, and the money has in a(l cases been cheerfully
paid. Which shows, that the enforcement of a rule, of
much importance to the editor, produces little or no in-
convenictwc to subscribers—le whom it can be of no 'im
portance, whether they pay three dollarsmw, ot a year
hence. Though the price of one subscription may.appear
but a small matter, the amount of a thousand is no such
despisable thing.
*.* Advertising customers will notice the change in
our day of publication, and send in their favors accord
ingly.
Wo havo continued the publication of the
Debate ami Document's on the Goorgia-ques-
tion. Though tho subject is one of vast im
portance, not only to the people of this state
but to the whole United States, we fear our
readers will be gorged with if' before it is
done with. Tho last MiGedgpville papers
contain two-long letters from Gov. Troup, one
of tho -26th January, to the Sefcrotary of War;
the other of the 21st February, to our Dolega.
tion' in Congress. We.have not room for these
at present; nor do we perceive that they shed
much new light on the subject^ His excellen
cy explains his views to the Delegation, aud
disclaims any idea of endeavoring tQ dismem
ber the Union, or of resisting the civil author
ity of the United States. Some such explana
tion was extremely necessary at this time, and
wo are rejoiced lb see it, for it'was thought his
recent lauguage had an uivfui squinting towards
a contrary disposition.
, That the General Government has not been
wanting in exertions to extinguish the ludian
title to lauds in this state, and satisfy the just
«l-.itma of G«orgi«, wo Uaso abundant . proof.
And, had it noi -b.ecn .for the untimely zeal abd
iwil. proceedings of our own functionaries, there
is no doubt, but that at this time tve should have
been in possession of our full limits. As fur
ther evidence of this.disposition on the part of
the United States, the instructions of the Sec
rotary of War to the Indian Agent,’published
today, may be adduced. We hope his exer
tions may be successful, and that this unplea

To Colonel John Crowell,
Agent for the Creek Indians—
sir—Since mine to you of the 2yth inst. the
Department has had information submitted to
it, which appears to bq entitled to respect,
that on a proper representation being mudo
to tho Chiefs of the peculiar state of. things, as
they now exist in regard to tho romuindcr of
their lands within tho limits of Georgia, they
wdl not object for a suitable monied considera
tion to sell. This infornj^tiou, und which': i*
from a sourco of great respectability is m sub
stance, that the Indians would sell this remain
ing portion ofjtheir lands within tho limits of
that State, if thoy were assured of a prompt utid
suitable compensation.
I therefore enjoin it on you asa duty of groat
importance, to adopt such mode as may seem
in your discretion to bo best, .to obtain their
consent to relinquish their hold upon these pine-
barrens, which .can bo of no value to thorn; und
thus secure that state of quiet, which it is so
much the desire of the Executive to realize.—
Oil ascertaining the view;? of the Chiefs, you
will communicate them to the Pcpnrtuicui; and
also at the same tijiio tho amount of tho con
sideration money, which they will be willing to
receive for their lands.
I havo the honor to ho, &c.
