Majoi Churchill, passed through our town on Wednesday lust, on his way from the Chen okec country, from whom we learned mat 22a Indians had been collected at New Echota, and 200 at Cassville, on the 27th inst. 200 at the Sixes, and 500 at Ft.

Those of our readers v> ho have not previously seen the Communication of the Secretary at War, on the subject of Cherokee emigration, will no doubt be not a little astonished on perusmg-that document, w liich wid be found in another Column. The first question wlficli suggests itself to every reflecting man, is. what is to be done in this emergency? In answering this question of course we cannot be supposed to speak advisedly or by authority; but we feel fully assured that the Gover nor will canyon the emigration in the spirit of thetrea. ty, should the government adopt the recommendations of the President. Regardless ot the very nature of things, resulting from the treaty, their n moval at this time, as a matter of expediency and policy slioulu not be questioned for a moment, by any of the authorities of the State or General Government. The country has been settled by a considerable popu lation, of hardy industrious citizens, who were in nu. nicrous instances induced to emigrate thither, because of the assurance of government, repeated again and again, that they would be removed in accordance with the stipulations of the treaty. But apart from these considerations, it is due to the Indians themselves, tha. they should he 'removed, to a country more congenial to their habits and manner of living. And however Mr. Van Buren, may truckle or crouch, to avoid the discharge of the duties imposed on him by the treaty we feel confident that the removal will go on under the management of the Governor of Georgia. It is true, we feel indignant at this conduct of the ad. ministration, and hence we feel the importance ot re etraining the expression of our opinions, to the full ex. tent that our feelings would justify; lor whether it be regarded as an attempt really to abrogate and annul the treaty, or a diplomatic trick, to get clear of the Cherokee delegation at Washington, it ts alike contemptiplc and undignified; and a bold and reckless disregard of his most solemn pledges to the people of ths State s inter ested. We pt biish to-day the proceedings of a meeting oi the citizei ■ of Athens’, held on Monday evening last in ho Presbyterian Church; organizing a Benevolent So ciety, for the relief and aid ot the sutferng poor, in tins place and its immediate vicinity. Such a Society is wanting in every community, to concentrate its chari ties, and to prevent the constant impositions of those, who, too idle to work, ate content to abuse the sympa thies of the benevolent. In forming this Society, the citizens of Athens do not inean to support the paupers of every Country, which fnay choose to send its beggars here. All persons who do not reside in Athens, and are not well known among** us, may be referred by any of our citizens to whom they inny apply ( to the Prudential Committee of the Benevo lent Society of Athens. By this Committee their claims will be examined, and if they arc found worthy objects of our charity, they V.’.iH be assisted. It is well known, that the Judges of the Inferior Court, are the commis. isioners for the poor of the county. Applications which hreinade to this Society, by those who come under the cogniztiiico of the commissioners of the pt’°r, will be referred by tile Prudential committee to that Boarti. We would suggest, whether the enforcement of the laws against vitgranln, might not be advisable, where hale and able-bodied men are found begging from door to door ? By a resolution which was adopted unanimously by the meeting, and has been incorporated widi the By- Laws, the Society has recommended to those who may be appointed upon the Visiting committees, the adminis tering relief rather by providing those things which are needed by the poor, than the donation of money, which might be ineffectual through the want of an attendant to procure tfie things which nre needed ; or through the indiscreUVUbfthc recipient, or through the L'rutirlily of . intemperate husband. With these guards thrown around cur new institution, wetrust its well-directed energies, may prove highly subservient to the cause of humanity. We cannot but invito those who were prevented at tending the meeting on Monday evening last, to send in their names, with the amounts they are willing to con' tribute quarterly to Mr. George Dent, at the Branch bank, and thus bear a part in this noble enterprise. IPtibHc Meeting. MONDAY EViINTG, May 28th 1838 The citizens of Athens convened this evening ar can' dle-light, at the Presbyterian church, {pursuant to ad' journment. On motion of the Rev. Mr. Hoyt, the Hon 7’hog. W Harris wus called to the chair, and Edward R Harden Esq-, appointed Secretary. As the object of the meeting was to organize a benevolent society for the relief of the poor and destitute in Athens and its vi cinity, the committee who were appointed at a previ ous meeting, through their chairman, Howell Cobb Esq submitted the following report, of a constitution, and By-Laws, prefaced by a few appropriate remarks ex planatory of the objects of the institution. The committee who were appointed to draft a C'onstition and report to this meeting, beg 'leave respectfully to submit the following re port. E’REAiaBLE. Whereas in every community, there are fre quent applications made to the citizens for aid and relief for those who are in distress; and the duty of affording that assistance, according to an ability, is universally acknowledged, and is in accordance with the noblest feelings of one nature : and whereas we are further pur sttaded, that dur contributions would be much more efficient, if combined than they possibly can be, when indiscriminately scattered; and fur ther as impositions are frequently practised up on the charitable by unworthy persons under false pretences of suffering,and thus our benevo- j lent feelings are in danger of being blunted. Therefore for the purpose of more efficient ac tion in the cause of benevolence, we unite ourselves as a Society, under the following Constitution and By-Laws. Artici.e I.—This Association shall be styled the Benevolent Society of Athens ; the object of which shall be the relief and assistance of the suffering poor of Athens and its vicinity.

Art. 2.—lt shall be the duty of the visiting committees, to visit the suffering poor in their respective districts, to apply to the President for drafts upon the Treasurer, and to adminis ter relief in the most judicious manner, and to make a written report of their doings to the So ciety at its quarterly meetings. Art. 3.—lt shall be the duty of the prudential committee to investigate the claims of beggars from abroad, to apply to the president fordrafts upon the Treasurer, to afford relief to such as they may consider really objects of charity, and to make quarterly reports of their doings. Art. 4.—The regular meetings of this So cietv shall be quarterly, on the 2d Wednesday in July, Oct. Jan. and April, of each year, at such place as shall be selected by the Society at each previous meeting. Art. s.—This Society recommends to the visiting Committees to afford relief as far as possible by providing such things as are neces sary for the suffering poor, instead of giving them money. The report having been received, the Rev. Mr. Hoyt arose and portrayed in a lucid and forcible manner, the importance of such tin institution as the one alluded to, and the advantages that would accrue from its estab lishment. The Rev. Mr. Smith concluded the discus sion, and in an eloquent and thrilling address, exhorted the meeting to lend their aid in promoting the cause of benevolence and charity. The report having been ad opted unanimously’, a committee consisting of Dr. Hull, Mr. John H. Newton, Mr. Baxter, and TUm. L. Mitch el! Esq. was then appointed by the chair to ascertain who were willing to connect themselves with the Asso ciation.—About fifty persons sucscribed their names to the Constitution, and at the same time made liberal con tributions, toward effecting the objects contemplated by the Society. The Ladies, whose encouragement in all great undertaking, is indispensably necessary, in order to insure?success, manifested an entcrest in the cause, that was highly creditable to the goodness of their hearts, and'extremely flattering to the projectors of the enterprize. The society being organized, an election for officers was held immediately, the result of which was, as fol lows: A. HULL, President. H. COBB. Vice Pres. J. W. JONES, Sect. G. DENT, Tresis’ r. Doctors, R. D. Moore and C.

A meeting ofStudents was held in the Chapel, to take into consideration the outrage commit ted on the feelings of the community, by the disturbance ofthe late meeting, which was as sembled in Ihe Presbyterian Church, on the night of the 28th inst. After several adjourned meetings, in which was manifested, a decided disapprobation of the outrage alluded to; and after considerable excitement arising from the discussion of different remedies proposed for the suppression of future disorders of this kind, the following preamble and resolutions submitted by Mr. Kendrick, to the meeting, were, after full consideration, adopted. Whereas, the public meetings heldatnight in the town of Athens, whether of citizens, or of students, have been frequently disturbed, by a few inconsiderate and reckless individuals, re gardless of civil authority, and insensible to eve ry feeling of propriety and gentlemanly decorum, and whereas the disturbance, ofthe good order essential to such assemblies, which, in part, might with propriety be alleged against a few, has been indiscriminately thrown upon the Stu dents, generally, of College. Wethemembers ofthe institution, believe that, on our p.'.rt, an expression of the strongest disapprobation of such conduct is called for, and in as much as an outrage upon the feelings ofthe community has lately been committed in the meeting of citizens held in the Presbyterian Church, on the even ing of the 28th inst. we do express our honest disavowal ot any participation as a body in these scenes of clamour and disapprove ot that and I every similar outrage and disorder by the adop tion of the following resolutions. Be it therefore resolved, Ist. That the dignity and respectability of the Studeat, and the instinctive principles of pro priety and decorum, as well as the exasperated feelings of an insulted and injured community all demand of us, not only an expression of our disapprobation of such disorder, but the disa vowal of all participation with those (whether citizens or students) suspected of the guilt at tached to the o itrage during the session of the benevolent Society of this place. 2d. That the imputation ofdisorderly conduct, as alleged against the Students as a body, is not. only an injury unmerited, but an insult unpro voked. 3d. That in order to prevent the disgrace arisingjfrom charges ofsuchungentlemanly and undignified conduct, being attached in future to this institution, we, in common with the citizens of Athens, will exert our influence for the sup pression ofsuch conduct, and for the detection ol those who may hereafter engage in it. On motion of Mr. Fall, it was resolved, that the proceedings of this meeting be published in the Gazetts ofthe town. Signed E. P. CLAYTON, Cliair’n. E. Anderson, Sec’y.

If therefore a liberal South ern public, will afford a sufficient patronage to justify the developement and concentration of the various resources ofthe surrounding coun try, so as to bring them into action for their comfort and convenience, they may be assu red that, the means thus afforded the proprietor of this establishment, shall be liberally applied to its improvement ano the procurement of every comfort they can require until it shall lose nothing by comparison with qny other ot the kind, North South, East or West, —with- out a liberal patronage however, it is evident public expectation cannot be met. If the ad vantages of an unexceptionable climate, supe i rior water, with several medicinal springs, (one of which is acknowledged by the most compe tent judges to be excelled by none in the South ern States) fine roads in every direction and good society, are inducements sufficient to jus. tifv the reasonable expectation, that a liberal and intelligent public will give to their home in stitutions, the preference over foreign ones— I then the proprietor feels confident that this ap peal will not be made in vain.
