I Mu Hear Mr. Editor—That ( am from the town
Wcon, I shall not pretend to deny, for it is one
if my principles, and I hold it ns fixed ns the laws
L' Medea and Persians, that no tnao ought to deny
k parents or his country. Rut who I am or

f, this tact, I shall pot you to the trouble of

r the Stricklands. Would that I were. In con-
Lencc of this declaration, if yon find any words
all wrong in this communication, you may place
Km to the account of my ignorance. For I shall
ot attempt to amuse you by a tergiversation,
hnsposition or any other evolution of letters, but
iellaswcllas I can and' confine myself to a sim-
|e narration or plain facts. In the first place, as
Lo will no doubt presume, I left Macon. What
■| e ft it for, you wonld hardly-wish to know, and
Iron did. I would hardly tell you. Since leaving
V I have seen many things to me strange
bd marvellous. I do not presume to say, that
; would have been either strange or marvellous
i vo i. or many others, but to mo they were
Icnliady so. In the first place, I have seen the
lo great marts ol Georgia's 'productions, viz:
Jarien and Savannah. These places to me, if not
Enelloas, were at least strange. The appearance
If Darien was particularly strange. Knowing that
fgrrat deal of cotton was boated down lo this
Leo, 1 Iwd expected to see a town at least, if not
I city of considerable importance. But when I
■riveil. i found it a low sandy disagreeable hole,
lilh the houses all decayed and the streets paved
■uh sand to tho depth of about two feet. As if to

Kvctvc men iu the ranks. This little band of pat-
iot< was drawn forth by the arrival of Washing-
In's birth-day. Savannah 1 found a place of in-
Kvitely more importance, though this is much on
le decline. There are bat few splendid buildings
I the place—The Exchange, the City Hall, and
Is Independent Presbyterian Church being the
last important. The other curiosities I saw, were
■ whale, a porpoise, an alligator, a ship at sea, a
Icht house, ann even the sea itself. These were
I strange to me. These 1 saw in my native
ate. I then came to South Carolina. Here, or
Ither on my way here, I saw a storm, which came

^ W 'x* Th jr S Wa , 3 8° Ue “ u P us I was told, in honor
of a Mr. Hamilton, who had recently proven Iiim-
sclfto be a great race rider. It seems that some of
the people of South Carolina, whom they call the
Jockey Club, took it into their heads that they
would try their skill in fatting this Proteus; who
assumes thd character of a beast or man at plea-
sdre; and whom they call State Rights. After
SSSP+Sfr* f'M lingand feedin G bim pretty
highly, they found him pretty obstrooulous. It
seems In keeping him, on account of Ids oxtraor-
,hcy ha - lcen enab l«fi to teach
b®had to run-against a certain horse on
the other side of the Potomac, called the Tariff.
On tins account it was only necessary to go to tho
sta 'and cry Tariff, and he would raise a *"5
little less temfic than did Esop’s Jack in drivfng
the goats Irom the navo to be caught by tho wait
ing lion. This very much delighted the people of
Carolina, who flocked in crowds to see and hear
this most astonishing snimal. When the dob
found that the people had set their hearts upon
him, they would give large dinners, at which they
would lead him forth, blanketed with homespun.
Some times they mounted one rider and some
times another, but this little fellow Hamilton seem
ed to stick to him best, and on account of his being
very small, they chose him for rider. Just about
this time there was a thundering large chair put up
by the State, to be run for. I think they called it
a gubernatorial chair. None but horses raised in
the state were allowed to run. This changed the
course of things into a different channel; but 1 have
no doubt the jockey club foresaw it. Be that as it
may, it was soon found out that State Rights
would be one or tho first entered. Some of tho
people who had found out that he was not the
thing he was cracked up to bo, or ratiier that he o-
verdid the thing, determined to give him a trial
For this purpose they sent for an old horse named
Union, that had for some time been turned out to i
graze, and whom they had aft forgotten until this
contention. This, a9 you will recollect, is the
same horse that the good old Washington used to
praise so much, aud that Jefferson rude when he
ran against Burr. The old colt was stabled and
pretendingly attended to, for a few days before tho
race, but he had not time to be properly kept.—
They selected for a rider a man, who I learn to be
about in character with his horse; being such a
man as Washington would havo liked. The day
of race camo on, but it was easy to ace the fate of
the contest. The two riders were as different as
their horses. Ooo rode a real old Virginia race;
the other, what is called a jockey race, taking eve
ry advantage in the start. State Rights ran out
far ahead, leaving old Union to be again turned ont
to pasture. It was in consequence of this affair,
that this big kickup was brought about. The re
bellious disposition of my arm had so far manifest
ed itself, and the temptation was so great, tltat I
thought I must venture out. Accordingly being
furnished with a ticket, I sallied forth. Taking
down broad street, which is about ten feet wide, I
at length found its end. Here stands tho theatre,
a very large capacious building. On coming near
it, I was filled with astonishment. Its front was
ornamented and illuminated in the most splen
did style, that it is possible to imagine. There
was a painting suspended in front, with the
name, James Hamilton, Goveraot, inscribed upon
it in glowing characters. Beside this they had se
veral mottoes suspended, which I conceived to be
entirely ont of character with the meeting. One
of them was. Union and State Rights; another,
Dam spiro spero. But 1 did not wait long to .view
this, making my way into the house fast as possi
ble. And when I entered, what I saw and what
I felt. I can't begin to tell you. I saw all sorts of
things, aft sorts of folks and aft sorts of dresses.
The room was decorated to the most imposing man
ner of any tiling I had ever seen. At the end of
the room was tho name of Washington in large let
ters. To its right was placed the name of Lafay
ette, and on the left that of Jackson. There were
a hundred other nemos placed around, being those
of their favonte men. There were two names from
our own State Rmongst the number. George M.
Troup and George R. Gilmer. It was particular
ly remarkable, that they felt rather cool towards
Mr. Drayton, placing the other names above a star
in the centre of the circle, whilst his wa9 under it.
To accompany his, they had given the name of I
John Randolph a similar situation. There was a
vast number of likenesses placed aft around the
loom, at the opposite end of which was that of Ham
ilton. Shortly after eight o'clock, the Governor
made his grand entre Just as he camo in, a band
of music prepared for the occasion simultaneously
struck their lyres. Followed by his aids, aft dress-
mi rr? militare in imitation of his excellency, he
bowed from one end of tho room to the other, and
then retraced his steps bowing as before. He then
would move about tho room, followed by tho whole
crowd, ns if they were anxious to touch but the
hem of his garment. They were however inter
rupted in this delightful sport, by tho managers,
wtio invited them to tukc partners for a dance.—
Then was »liat you may call tight squeezing. In
a little time, there were about fivo hundred, male
and female, on the floor. About two hundred had
to take their seats. leaving tho rest to carry on the
dance. When they commenced this woik, 1 thought
it time for me to be off, so I squeezed through the
ctowd and slipped into a back room. I theie saw
a table full of eatables liso iu bold retiew before
me. I seized a knife and thought I would nullify
an old gobbler that appeared to lio in calm securi
ty, hm I found him in the true spirit of the times,
anti tareoff. After trying him a while, I proclaim
ed disunion, and went to something else. I howe
ver got through my supper, and returned to the
room. After wandering about with my mouth
wide open with astonishment until about eleven
o’etbek, I left them in the full tide of successful
experiment. Tour friend, J

Tho missionaries located within tho limits of

Although wc havo not been favored with

they are sustained in their pretensions by the

Mr. Sliaw—Tho Presbytery of HopetVell is
to meet in Lexington next Thursday week —
And I understand that a report is in circulation
throughout tho upper parts of our State, that
the small pox is in Loxington. I wish to say
through the medium of your paper, from my
own personal knowledge, and upon the authori
ty of Doctor Jourdine, whom I have just seen,
amLwho is now practising in that village, that
the report is utterly without foundation. There
is no small pox in Lexington, neither has there
been a singlo case in, or near the place, so that
the members of the Presbytery have nothing to
fear from this quarter. NATHAN HOYT,

We present John Y. O. Watts, of said county
ofMooroe, with the offence of an assault with in
tent to murder Owen J. .Willis of said county in
the county of Monroe, on the first dav of January,
1831: witnesses David Allison and Elihu N.
Waldrip.
Wo present, as a public grievance b'f no ordina
ry magnitude, the circulation of Bank bills under
(lie denomination of one dollar, and wonld respect
fully recommend to the cilizeos Of Georgia to
unite in remedying the evil complained of, by a
refusal in future to receive them; or by any other
means which may or can bo devised fur that pur
pose.
We, the Grand Jury, disapprove of the policy
pursued by our Inferior Court iu loaning out the
county funds to individuals, and would most re
spectfully recommend to them the abandonment
of that policy in future, and in lieu thereof recom
mend the application of the County funds to the
purchase of able-bodied negro men to ho plhced on
tho public roads for their improvement.
We present, as a public grievance,- the general
bad condition of our public roads, anil recommend
to the Inferior Ceurt the rigid enforcement of
the road laws against all delinquent .Commis
sioners.
We find on examination, that tho Clerk's Bqoks
of tbo Inferior Court are (airly and neatly kept, and

But it is tlio opinion of the Court tlmt there is
a inode by winch tbo rights of tlio CberokeCS
(as individuals) to the lands guarantied to them,

• If, however, their being a domestic depend
ant nation were not fat-il to lligir application for 1
an injunction, their assumption of being a fo*
reign nation would exclude them from (lie cog.
ntzancool tho Supreme Court, and bring their
cniso before a different branch of tho Govern
ment* If it wero true, as argued by Mr. Wirt
and others, that the Cltcrokees are oppressed
by the State of Georgia, &c. it belonged not to
fhn Supremo Court, (tho opinion concluded)
hut to other tribunals, to assort tltoir rights anil
redress their wrongs.
Making the total amount of $5557,36 3-4
The prompt attention of his honor Judge Strong
