FROM TURKEY AND GREECE. ■
Wo liavo received our files of Smyrna papers;
to January £J. Attjca and Nayropont, which
ore to be annexed to tho Grechin State by
virtue of tho Protocol of the Ambassadors ol
tho Allied Powers, were not jrui evacuated by
the Turks. Count Capo d’fstria had declined
to lake possession of them, though invited in do
it by the naval eommauders of tho three Pow
ers, for want of money ;inc| troops to support
tho necessary establishments. At Alliens tho
Turks were preparing to evacuate tlm town,
and had sold their estates. Many persons hid
purchased estates there with the intention ol
erecting buildings in case of the establishment
of a regular government, which should render
property 'secure. Tito island of Curubusa,
which had boen taken possession of by the for
ces of the Allied Powurs, had been evacuated
by the English and French troops, and placed
in tho occupation of a Russian garrison- A
further reinforcement of Egyptian troops hail
iirtivod in Candia, and every efTori was m■-
King to pacify the Gtcnks of that island.—
"Twenty-two villages had mido their submis

informed of the arrest soon after it took place,
,ttd about 10 o’clock yesterday morning, they,
S tit some of the other officers attended at the
Citv Hall, to count tho amount recovered;
which was found to be $175,738. Of this $20,-
012 were of tho Morris Canal Company notes,
being the lull amount stolen, belonging to that
D >nk; $44,000 of the Lansingburg Bank; and
$103,726 of tlsss different Banks in this-city.
None of the gold was found. In the pri
soner’s pocket hook about $15 were found ol
other motley besides that stolen. When brought
out for examination, the prisoner gave his
name, Hnd stated Ins age to be 35 years, but
declined answering any other questions.

The prisoner is thick set, a morocco dresser
by trade, and was considered a very industrious

said, that a short time after he landed here with

at tho time, tho prosecution was not followed

A gentleman was at tho Police Office yes

a man and woman coming down frura tho Pha?-

not able, however, to identify the prisoners ns

“Judge Baldwin delivered a learned and ve

in a lucid aud interesting manner, that hy no act

Judges seemed to study to avoid suying any
thing which would show, that, in their opinion
any wrong had been dune the Indians; or, that
thoro was any mode by which the questions be

decided the case on the question of jurisdiction
before that Court—and whatever else was said,
was clearly against the claims of tho Indians ”

Extract of a letter to the Editors of the Enqui-

“The Cheroknet, claiming to be a foreign

exercise of jurisdiction over them, should be
declared null and void, and that the treaties
with ilium, should be carried into full force a-
gainst the claims of Gcoigia. .

f Tis generally known (we presume) to the citizens
of Macon, that it is in contemplation to erect, at
the corner of Mulberry and Third street, a large and
commodious bouse, to be called the Central Hotel. It
was calculated, the building would cost about 20,000
dollars; and a number of gentlemen conceived (he
idea of forming a eompany, and dividing this sum into
shares of $11*1 each. This was accordingly done, and
books were optned for subscription. A considerable
portion of the stock was taken up immediately, but
not all, as was anticipated It was believed there wss
enough of public spirit and public enterprise in this
community, to ensure success to such an undertaking.
Ilesida* the Hotel, there wilt be two eligible and tel-
uahle Wore rooms in the lower peri; end from tbe
central position ofthe lots chosen for tho site of this
edifice, will command almost any rent. Thersperi-
ment has been tried in other towns of tar less rise and
importance than Macon, ei well as in large cities, end
has been found to be a profitable investment. It ts
n matter of surprise that capitalistshere, as elsewhere
are not more nations to vest their funds in properly
that must yield them to large an interest. Persons
owning real property in town, particularly those who
hold U la the vicinity of this contemplated structure,
we should suppose, would feel a lively interest in its
admitted the Chcrokoo Tribe of Indians to be As long a. Macon is as prosperous and flour-

business, end surety, tbose who have settled here will
feel a deep interest in «nv measure that will cither
enrich the place or beaatiiy its external appearance —
We believe, nay we are confident, that money cannot
be vested in more sure and profitable stock. The pay-
mrnts are easy, being made ih three or four in
stalment*, and almost every person in business can
spare a hundred or two dollars ii» the course of the
year, without feeling the loss of It; end perhaps before
half the instalments are paid, the stock may tie worth
