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.

INTERESTING. Extract of a letter to the Editors of the Enqui- ,, rer, Washington, March 18,1831. “T o* Supreinu Court 'has just decided the' case of tho Cherokee Nation os. tho State of Georgia.' I hoard all the opinions road, and hud a glance at that of thb Chief Justice in manuscript. I believe 1 understand and re- ntrmbor tlio principles on wiiich tho case was decided. “The Cheroknet, claiming to be a foreign Statu, filed (heir bill in the Supreme Court, set ting forth numerous grounds of complaint a- gainst.tho Suite of Georgia—and praying, n- nioug other things, that this Mate, her Govern or, ard other officers, and all her citizens, sh >uld ho perpetually enjoined from interfering in any manner, witli the lnnds within the Che rokee boundary—that the Cherokee Nation should be declared a sovereign and independent State—.that the laws of Georgia, claiming the 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. . “The Chief Jos ice in a concise but able opiniou, declared it to bo tho judgment of a majority of tbo Court, that the injunction should be refused, and the bill dismissed.

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.

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 considerably more than It cost; and probably it will, judging from the highest rents that are given (or buildings of every description In this place.
