• SP'IJJC W ASIJINGTON., FEbBU AKV 9, 1880. au,e indobUf'J to our Represent tdives in Congress for of h Report made by It Jr. Bell, from the CommHfte- on Indian Affairs, on the 261 h u!f. hi relation to the of the citizens of this State, (for injuries comnmtoi* by the Creek Indians prior W the year 1502,) pnr 6ann( to a provision of the 4th article of a treaty entered into between the United States and the Creek Indians in 1821. The Report is in favor ©f the claims and ue hnvc no doubt a tiM will be passed, containing satisfactory provisions to those interested. Interest is recommended to lie paid upon all claims found due for property de stroyed, to be calculated from such periods, .at which, by the terms of the treaty they would bavc been paid, but for the mistake of the Com missioner who rejected “them. 9, mm tm KY Maim. —We have copied from the N and Enqviirer two pieces upon the smyectof Sunday Mails, and the petition rela tive to the same, which has been sent to Con gress from the City of Now York; for which we refer the reader to our second page. Wc are as •desirous to see the Sabbath hallo red as those who raise so great a clamor upon the subject, but we cannot do otherwise than protest against the means assumed by some to effect it. We are Opposed to any thing that has tbe appearance of tending to unite Church with Stale, as wc have before expressed ourselves, and as we are of o .pinion that the proposed arrangement of stopping the United States’ Mail on Sunday by any mea sure of Congress would tend in a degree to ac complish the same, or at least set a precedent ’which t a future day may be brought forward • us sufficient authority to establish such a state of • things, we feel in conscience bound, as a Chris tian, and a. friend to Civil and Religions Liberty ‘to revse o r voice against the interference of ‘•Congress upon the subject. We are told by those who are opposed to the mad stages ruu tfmgon Sunday, that it is not their intention or wish, to have Church and State united, and that the object of their petitions is not designed to have that effect. Here we differ materially, for although it may not be their intention, or wish. ■9Vccannot believe it to beany thing else in effect than one step towards an established religion, vhich we earnestly pray may never be effected in our happy country. We profess to be. ami hope we are a Christian, but God forbid that we should ever wish, much more ever have a dispo sition to enforce our belief on others by legisla tive toactsments, or in any other way than tin o’ penu'ition, and cool and unsophisticated reason ing.’ Whenever we feel we have a disposition to compel ethers by force, (either legislative or o therwise,) think and believe as we do; that Tlementwe ourselves of ne.lJifhyicss, and that we hav departed from the character and standard of iKtrue Christian. We are, like ot.Ws, fallible, and may be in error, if so, whenever we are satisfied of the fact, we will acknowledge it; but until then we will contribute our feeble might in defence of our Liberty and our Religion. We did intend never again to say one word upon the subject but have teen induced to do so in consequence of the vig orous efforts made (by those who differ with us,) so endeavor to influence Congress, & enlist pop ular-favor oil their side, and all we intend to do now, is to call on every friend of both Civil and .Religious Liberty to stand firm at his post, and frown upon any measure which tends to destroy the foundatian of our Republic, and which might Eventuate in scenes of blood. Why call upon Congress to interfere at all ? Religion is of such a nature that it does not stand in need ofsuch aid. -TTo ascribe praises to God that he has given Scriptural means sufficient to effect ev r, thing that is necessary for the salvation of immortal Tjßni'.s, end we? recommend these new fangled Sab batarians to attend move strictly to their clerical department, and let politics alone, if they wish to see the desired change take place, for which they seem over anxious. To attempt to cstab ’ lish a “religious parly n polities,” as has been from the sacred desk, is a death blow to the cause of Christianity, so far as the feeble arm of man is capable of intlirtiiig it, and the author, with all others who in earnest desire to effect such a party, cannot, in our estimation, be Christian, and deserve the execration of if cry true friend to his country. n, recommend tile render to peruse the piece *n our sedond page, over the signature of ‘-1 Gtorgian,” (taken from the Georgia Jounal) with attention, and act as bis bgtter judgment Way dictate. How far the Commissioners of our town would promote the public interest, by a strict ndhernnee to the following recommendations, we leave for every reader to judge. Eilraet from the. presentments of the Grand Jury for Bibb County—JauiUtry Term, 1830. “The Grand Jury conceiving that great evils a rlsc from the practice of retailing spirits to Ne groes, recommend to the Commissioners of tbe town of Macon, if they possess competent author ity therefor, to prevent such suio, by a heavy fine on such as shall transgress tbeir ordinance for that purpose; and if they do not possess that au thority, the jury roouest tbeir Representation in ” the next Legislature, to use their exertions to have a law passed lor that purpose. They also recom mend to the Conlmisfioncrs to adopt such mcas sures as may morn effectually execute the laws re flating tiaffic with Negroes.” Ik from the Presentments of the Grand Jury county for January Term 183(1. j to prohibit slaves from trading with ns, is founded not less in n sense of than of safely to society, mu! t.:k- HLion with the ext. ..tied jotifilietum ..f the et.-inliii <Tm is of’ fie . . have tho dvtnrvtl efiVet. Ftfc-fttr Meads pom (fit Preset!,* tuts of the , ClrmuJ Jury of t Inti hum county. 3 he prompt and commercial administration of j justice, is one of the <t I tributes of h free guvu uieiit. A strict adherence to the common Law of! Lug land, as adopted in this, and other stales, in ! relation to unanimity in Julies in civil cases we j believe to bo at variance with these principles.- V e would therefore respectfully suggest that out j Judiciary system be so altered, os to render valid a verdict ofsuch :t majority ns the Legislature in its wisdom may deem best. 1 he right of suffrage, which 111 the spirit of our government has been extended without regard to property or station, has nevertheless been guard ed trom abuse by wise and wholesome laws, j ! hese laws have how ever, been- Xreqocjitfy over leaped, and our elections instead of being conduct | cd with the order, purity and solemnity of the oc ; fusion, have too often been tire scenes of disorder J and corruption. Their lore, we the Grand Jury, with a proper sense of the importance of the sub fject, beg leave respectfully to suggest that such an alteration of our election laws be made, as in file judgment and wisdom of the Legislature, would protect the purity of elections. Wc direct the attention of our readers to the advertisement jn a succeeding column relative to the “Athens Factory. ” We have not seen the Machinery, or a specimen of the yarn manufac tured, and of course cannot of our own knowledge say any thing. The following upon tbe subject, wc copy from the “Athenian.'* “We call the attention of our renders to the ad vertisement found in our paper of to-day, under the head of the A I'H ENS FACTORY, lie have seen a specimen of the thread, and can say it is of excellent, quality; but in saying this it is no more than might have been expected from the Machine ry, for it is certainly not only ol the latest improve ment but of the highest possible finish. Nothing, in any country, can excel it in accuracy of struc ture of splendour of polish. Be understand that it runs with great truth and facility, anil what is better, the hands employed, being small slaves, ! Icaru with so much readiness as to give their in structors litile or no trouble. Tiie managers, who are from the North, affirm that from tbe experi ment made, they consider the matter as settled that these hands will do as well if not better than whites. Thus we see the South has been most reluctantly driven so the manufacturing business, 1 a business which they would most anxiously have avoided, hut which uow in seif defence they are compelled to pursue. As there seems so he an indexible disposition on the part of the General Government 10 fix down ppon us that odious law the Tariff, for the purpose of satiating northern cupidity, w e hope the south ern people will patronize their own manufactur ing institutions. This, besides being a liberal re turn to the enterprize which seeks to mitigate the effects of an unjust policy may in the end relieve us from it altogether.” Extract to tfc Editors, dated “We shall have a bitter, but as 1 believe, a suc cessful contest on the Indian question. To forti fy ourselves as well as possible, is tbe dictate of wisdom, For this purpose it may be important that we should be furnished with the act adding the Cherokee country totiie adjoining counties of Georgia “We had a short and somewhat sharp discus sion a few days ago, upon the question of refer ring u memorial from'some political r. Unionists of iNevv York to the Committee on Indian Affairs. That 1 did not oppose that reference was, that our friends from other stales, among whom were some of the warmest person.il friends of General Jackson, thought it impolitic to do so, believing that the battle might be fought more successfully behind the rampart, which a formal and detailed report from the Committee would set up for us.

CHEROKEE Li.!*e. — He are informed that Gen- Coffee’s report on the Greek and Cherokee line* has reached /Tasiiington City. From the map accompanying it. and from what is understood to be the substance of the report itself, it appears dial the hue line should at the Shallow Ford on the Chaiiahoochie. ami follow circuitu ously, on their ridge, a range of hills, to /Fili’a Creek. This line it is understood, cuts off from the Cherokees, about one-third of the land be lieved by us to belong to Georgia under the treaty with the Creeks of 1827. So that if it should be established, Georgia will loose about / tco thirds of w hat we contend properly belongs to us, under that treaty. Jhecvidep.ee in support of the position assumed by Georgia is so stroll”* that we are well satisfied she will not lie content with any other line than that run by Col. Wales. (Ibid. Public Lands.— Mr. tool's resolution relative to public lands was under discussion in the Senate nt the time of our latent dates from //ashington City, and continued to excite much warmth and feeling. ‘The United States Telegraph of the 2btli tilt, says— “Mr. Webster concluded his remarks yester day, and Mr. Haynjs replied, throwing back the argument to the original propositions; which have resolved the points in issue to the great question of National and State powers, that formed the di viding line between the parties of'9B, and must fi ver divide them under this Government—Mi.

The to the j indications hitherto held out by tiie j proceedings in Congress, it appears - that the subject ol a rivision of the J Tariff will bo seriously agitated ot j tiie present session of Congress. A j ■till for that purpose has been report ed in the Senaiet by Gen.

Elliott, and the Peacock, M’Call, were at Vera Cruz on the 9th Dec ember, the latter to sail for Tampi co, the next day. Com. Elliott was waiting for the arrival of Mr. Poin sett, from Mexico and would bring him to the mouth of the Mississippi or this place—Mr. Poinsett, was expec ed to be in Vera Cruz the first week in the present month. While the Erie was at Vera Cruz, it was scarcely possible for the offi cer left in command during a tempo rary absence of Gen. St. Anna, at his country residence to keep the troops from declaring for the revolt ol Puebla. At Sisal the officers of the Erie understood that Guerrero had left the city of Mexico with 1000 men to march on Puebla and had or dered St. Anna to proceed from Vera I Cruz with, 500 men to meet him, I i having Puebla between them.
