18-26.] Statesman Mn.LEDCEvu.LE, Tuesday, March 7, 1826. Pro aris, focis, ct patria nostrum. MR. CLINTON’S CANAL REPORT. The first thing which arrests the reader’s attention in this Report, is the cheapness of the estimated expense. If a Canal that is to be five feet wider than the great one of New- Vork, can be durably constructed on the route surveyed by Mr. Clinton, at an average ex pense of S 8000 per mile, it is certainly an auspicious omen, not only to the enterprise of Mr. Jcnckes and his associates, but to the whole commercial and agricultural int. rests of the State. We have, on a former occa sion expressed our belief, and we are still of the opinion, that the navigable waters of Tennessee may be connected with the At lantic, by means of a Canal 30 feet wide, at an average cost of §BOOO per mile, exclusive of aqueducts. To what height embankments may be made, or to what depth a Canal may be cut, for 10, 13, or 20 cents the cubic yard, is yet, in this State, somewhat problematical; not so much on account of the peculiarities of our soil, as the untested measure of efl'ect, which those equivalents of labor, among us, w ill produce. On the whole, we look upon this It port, so far as we understand it from the printed copy before us, for we have seen no two that exactly agree, as a careful and minute exhibition of levels, admeasurements and details, sufficient ly systematised and intelligent, to vindicate the high opinion we entertain for the skill and judgment of the Engineer; at the same time, that it affords his employers the princi ple data to be relied upon in the examination of their enterprise. We are, however, con strained to believe, that if Mr. Clinton had been left to the unbiased expression of his judgment., in suggesting the probable advan tages to be expected by continuing the pro. posed Canal to some point beyond the Alta maha, he would not have failed to take Darien, Brunswick, and St. Marys into the scope of his reconnoisance. The building of the Canal under considera tion, is a private work, undertaken at privatf expense, to build up, not Darien, nor Bruns wick, but Savannah. Nay, it will operate as a kind of whip-row that w ill filch away from the former pi,ice the great benefits which would otherwise necessarily descend thither through the Altamaha. But, from the mo ment a Canal navigation is opened from any point on this river directly to Savannah, Da rien will have no power to entice the trade and produce of the West to her own market, being effectually cut off by a channel of easy communication to Savannah, which experi ence has shewn to be inconceivably more profitable and expeditious, than by natural w aters. For the people of Darien and Bruns wick therefore, there will be no alternative but in the wisdom or magnanimity of the State Legislature, to grant, or exercise the power of cutting a “a grand central Ca nal,” which ‘ball disembugue at, or near one ol these places, and divide with Savannah the trade and produce of Georgia, and the adja” cent States of the West. An act authorising the survey of such a Canal, passed at the last annual session, providing as far as possible, that the operation of its benefits should be equally distributed. It will be the duty of the Board appointed to superintend the operation of this act, to consult the prosperity of all, with the least possible prejudice to any. We copy the following from the last South ern Recorder. 'f o the Editors of the Statesman. You, gentlemen, seem tostand for ward as tlie avowed champions ol the majority of the Legislature who passed the District Law, (familiarly termed.) I propound to you the following questions, and respectfully ask a re ply : Ist. Do you believe the law in all >ts provisions to have been made in pursuance of the Constitution of the United States ?—lf so, 2d. How do you reconcile the act, or that part of it which seeks to limit a Representative to a certain Disrict, to that part of the 2d section of the Ist article of the United States’ Con stitution, which authorizes any per son to take a seat as a Representa tive, who shall have attained the age of 25 years, and who has been seven years a citizen of the United States, and when elected an inhabitant of the State for which he is chosen ? It is b lieved by some, that your knowledge of constitutional law, to gether with your powers of argu ment, will enable you to satisfactori ly explain and support all parts of rise act as constitutional. Please favor the public with your Views' upon the precise question made. BALDWIN These questions, bating a little irony, are very civily propounded, and we shall endeavor is civily to answer them. The Constitutionality of the law in ques tion, must be tested by a reference to the Con stitution itself; which begins and ends in language, as follows : “ We, the people of the United •States, in order to form a more per fect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the gen eral welifare, and secure the bless ings of liberty to ourselves, and our posterity, do ordain, and establish, that all Legislative powers, herein granted, shall be vested in a Con gross of the United States, ’ and thai “ the powers not delegated to thi United States, by the Constitution nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respec tively, or to the people," the only legitimate source ot the powers that be. Now, that the States have never surren dered, but do still retain the power of elect ing their own Representatives in their own way, is settled, we think, most incontroverti bly, by the uniform sentiment and practice of the States, generally ; for it is under the di rect operation of this law that most of the States uniformly elect their Representatives to Congress. It is also evident from the lan guage of the Constitution itself. — u The times, places, and manner of holding elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be pre scribed in each State by the Legislature there of.”—lt is furthermore evident from reason; that the people should, and will forever con tinue, to hold inviolable the only attribute of sovereignty which they have reserved to them selves, —the power of choosing their own Rulers and Representatives, in their own way. The sam reasoning that would prove it un constitutional to elect Members to the Na tional Legislature by Districts, would also prove it unconstitutional to elect Members to the State Legislatures by Counties. Suppose this, also, should be contended for, and it may with equal reason—that, for the sake of “open ing a wider field for the display of talent,” (to use a writer’s argument in the Georgia Journ al,) representation by Counties should be abolished, and the law —making power of the State, given at random to men of whom littl could be known, except they possessed, as the above w riter again says, “ a desire to occupy a high and elevated station.” But, in grati fying the modest ambition of such, the will, and the rights, and the security of the people arc to be chiefly consulted. The fault in the mode of election by Gen eral Ticket, is its liability to operate unequal ly ; as for example—Suppose our whole dele gation to Congress were elected from the County of Monroe, would the people of Sa vannah and its vicinity feel no apprehension for the faithful consideration of their interests in the National Counsels? On the other hand, if our whole delegation to Congress, or a ma jority of them were chosen from Savannah, what security w ould the Counties of the West enjoy that their rights would not be overlook ed ? In short, we should view the principle of electing Members to our State Legislature by Genera! Ticket, as not more objectionable than that of so electing Members to the Le gislature of the Nation. To return, however, to a difficulty proposed in reconciling the doctrine of a Districting Law, “with that part of the 2nd Section of the Ist Article of the United State’s Consti tution,” which defines the qualifications of Representatives to Congress, and is in these words—(and not exactly in the words and sense delivered in the question,) “No person hall be a Representative, who shall not have ittained the age of twenty-five, and been se ven years a citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen.” Now, if our Districting Law elect a Repre sentative having the full measure of these qualifications, the law itself must be consti tutional, and vice versa; —besides that, the instrument itself soli mnly declares, that “the enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or dis parage others retained by the people. Should w e seem to our interrogate!’, “to stand forward as the avowed champions of the majority of the last Legislature,” in their passing of this Bill; jet, it does not follow, therefore, that we consider all their act? equal ly wise ami expedient. When an important dill is put upon its third reading, the cry among both its advocates and opposers is, “now let us bear a hand,” and when, like Virgils Grecian horse on entering the devoted City, its progress is debated at the walls ; all fly to aid, or impede its passage, —some seize upon the rope, and others fasten upon the r heels. We recollect, that when the Mexico Atlantic Bill was turning upon iU third read ing, some careful soul, afraid, lest the State should come to harm, under the strict expres sion, “the powers granted by this act shall be literally construed,” moved with great earnest ness to amend the same, by inserting, “ th> powers granted by this act shall be libearlly construed, Kc.,” thereby augmenting, in an indefinite measure, the very evil he would seem to remedy;—not unlike the man, who, when his servant had mischievously passed the halter of his horse, as it stooped to drink, beneath a root deeply hidden in the stream, and calling franticly for help as he pulled its head under, flew to its rescue, and with tiie good intention of all liis mgiht, actually helped the vilain to drown his own horse! Among the numerous amendments offered on such occasions, some are meant to impede, and others to accelerate the passage of a Bill; w hile some, too, are of so doubtful a tendency, that it is difficult to perceive whether the au thors meant them for good or evil. Os this class we recon the puerile amendment append ed to the Act creating a Board of Public Works, which limits their t; rm of service to sixty or a hundred days in the year! A Bill, thus be set with help and hindrance, on its final pas sage, is not unfrcquently cumbered with ex tranous verbage, insomuch, that some learned philologist of a neighboring press recentlj- as sailed a particular law of the last Legislature ivitu the charge of an “absurd and prnpi fv ed phraseology;” which charge, by the by, might more appositely apply to that section of the Land Lottery Act, which defines the quali fications of participants. Wc have received the twenty-ninth number of the Ncw-Vork Mirror, and Ladies’ Literary Gazette, which is certainly one of the neatest specimens of a pi riodical Gazette that we know of. The style of typographical execu tion, the pure whiteness of the sheet, together with the taste and intelligence of its columns) justly entitle it to a rank among the most use ful and agreeable publications of the day, There arc tales for the grave and the gay— ind flowing measures for the organ, the piano, and the lute —as well as themes for the schop ir, the philanthropist, and the historian. The terms of this weekly publication, are four dollars in advance ; and we sincerely believe that the reading class of both ladies and gen tlemen will count t'aeir subscription to this cork profitably made for the money. We shall be willing to receive and forward orders lor the same, at any moment - GEORGIA STATESMAN Amidst graver duties, we have- not been un mindful of that, which claims of us a weekly ottering to those whose empire is over the heart. The story of Eugenia De Mirande, on our last page, is worth the whole subscrip tion price to our paper. In eadem re, utilitas et turpitudo esse non potest.—Cicero. “ It is vain to plead the advantage of a proceeding, when those advan tages are to be purchased by the expense of honesty, or of honor.” The upright man in his moral walk is fearless, he goes abroad pro tected by his honesty; he fears no danger, for truth and uprightness, are his shield and breast plate. He needs no certificate to support his character, no falsliood or dissimula tion to prove the correctness of his conduct, for the integrity ofhisheart, and the purity ofhis motives are ex hibited in all his actiqns, and testify to both. A position which needs for its sup port, th perversion of truth, and the mutilation of facts, should by all iionest men be abandoned as unten able. To support a man and his meas ures, by the suppression of truth, and the substitution of error, by exciting the passions, and blinding the judg ment, shew alike, moral depravity, and political turpitude. A good cause needs no factitious support, it rests olely on trutli; and the more closely examined, the more excellent it appears ; it shrinks not from investigation, but is obscured by dissimulation and sophistry. W e are led to these remarks, by •■noticing in several Georgia papers, attempts to alienate the affections ol the people of Georgia, from the Fed eral Union. To create in the minds of our fel low citizens a belief, that the gov ernment of the United States in all its branches is hostile to the welfare of Georgia, means are restored to, degrading as they are false and un just. Articles of this description are fab ricated in one paper, and copied with avidity into others ; but the fabrica tion and reprint of these articles are such gross derilictions from the re sponsible duties of editors that we could not pass them without some remark. Among many articles of this de scription we copy the following from some of the late numbers of the Georgia Journal. The feelings of Mr. Adams and his advisers on this important subject are plainly evtuced by the manner in which they treat the delegations from the two parties of the Creek nation, now at Washington. The hostile party are in high favor ; —They have been dressed up by the gov ernment in splendid military uni forms. The friendly or Mclntosh party have presented their claims on the government—have been very coldly received, and have had plain citizens clothes assigned to them ! ! ***** On the 29th of December the hos tile party, rigged out iu their milita ry dresses, were, while the Senate was in session, paraded into the Se nate Chamber with Crowell at their head ! ! ! People of Georga such is the distinction now made at Wash ington between those who have been your steadfast friends in the worst of times, and those who in times past, eagerly sought every opportu nity ol shedding tho blood of vour wives and children. Let it be recol lected that Gun Boy and Manaway are members of the hostile delega tion ; —that they were conspicuous actors in the bloody tragedy at Fort Miins : —that in that frightful scene of carnage one of our Senators lost a beloved brother. What an out range on the feelings of that Sena tor was committed when these mis creants were taken to the bosom of the administration, spendidly deco rated at the public expense, and pa rade into the Senate Chamber in his presence. What atonement can the government offer for this gratuitous insult to the Stilt- of Georgia in the person of one of the Representatives of her sovereignty ? ***** The hostile warriors Yvcre fine looking men ; they were clothed in the full dress of the army officers ; their epaulettes Yvere of gold, and their coats plentifully furnished with embroidery of the same material. I thought it manifested some policy, in the Government to keep the hos tile delegation in good humor by these little gifts of finery ; but in deed there Yvas so wide a difference in the treatment of the friendly party of the Mclntosh Creeks, that I pitied the policy that Yvas so evidently cal culated to injure the fine feelings upon such occasions so keenly felt by the Indians. * * * * Will it be credited that in a few short years from these generous ser vices and still fewer months from this bloody assassination his muder ous enemies, and the former dark and insidious enemies ofthis same Government are received into its open arms, flattered and caressed by the public functionaries, and most ol all, by the chief ruler of the nation, attired in the most Costly and splen did apparel at the public expense, paraded and escorted through the chambers of the State, with marks of distinction denyed to our own citizens, and finally revelling at the banquets of the President, embracing him with their blood stained hands still reeking with the gore of the gallant Mclntosh, while his own ex iled son and friends saunter through those Halls of mirth and unnatural orgies, neglected and despised 1 Now what object of good policy required this deviation from truth, this false colouring of facts, we know not; —was it for the purpose of lead ing astray the minds, of the ignorant and unsuspecting, and blinding the judgment of our fellow citizens at large as it regards the adjustment of their interests with the general government If such be the fact, we believe these libelous articles will produce their own salutary cor rective, to the deep disgrace and in famy of their authors. The great mass of the free popu lation of Georgia, are not yet prepar ed to be gulled b} falshood, and gorged with such unholy pottage. It is the interests of the Sovreign People and not the interests of a few political factionists and aspiring dem agogues which seem to have come in collision with the United States govc.iunet. —Therefore the People should be served with truth, and that only. But the objects to be achieved by the original publication of the above extract, are as separate, and distinct, from the real interests of the people, as light from darkness; —even the “way fareing man, though a fool’ could not fail to discover, that they are the desperate efforts of a falling party. The follow ing letter, written by a disinterested gentleman who had no party, or political views to serve, ex hibits a striking contrast to the tale told by the authors of the foregoing extracts. It appears by this letter that the general government, on the arrival oftlie Indians at Washington, gave to each party, such clothing as they respectively chose. The Mclntosh party with great propriety chose habilments ofuiourn ing, and the other party, as was to be expected chose gaudy military trappings. The general government no doubt sought, by gratifying their different caprice* -vi*. th-'.r tions, and calm their passions there by rendering it more easy not only to obtain “ pcacebly, and on reasona ble terms" the lands belonging to Georgia, but also to reconcile these parties with each other ; and to ac complish this latter object, it appears unusual though unsuccessful efforts were made. From the Rhode Island American. From our Washington Correspondent. Washington City, 2Stli Jan. 1526. CREEK TREATY You are aware that the govern ment has made an arrangement with the Indians, perfectly satisfactory to them, and which, it is thought, will be confirmed by the Senate. The message conveying this new treaty has has not as yet been sent to the Senate. Treaty and anti-treaty par ties are, you know represented here by their principal oralors and war riors ; each delegation comprising twenty or thirty individuals. They have been kindly treated by their Father, the President. One party is quartered at Brown’s Hotel, the othci at Tennison’s and all their wants are % r ery liberally supplied. They received, upon their arrival, such dresses as they chose. The Mclntosh Party chose to wear blue frocks and trowsers, with mourning badges. The other party wear gold lacked frocks, with epauletts. These twoparties have had no intercourse witi each other. All attempts to re comile their animosities have prov ed fiuitless. The President propos ed ai ammicable meeting between them, to take place at his house on Wednesday last, when and where an endeavour was to be made to bring about a reconciliation. This propo sition was rejected, the Mclntosh party declaring that “ they would never grasp in friendship, hands that were red with the blood of their Chief.” They were present at tin: Levee, on the first of January ; and were marshalled in lines, facing each other,on each sideof the Saloon. They stood there, motionless as statues, noticing nothing that passed around them, not even the observation which they themselves attracted. They received the salution of the company, when offered, with dignity and propriety. No expressions of surprise or admiration escaped them. If over their fixed features exhibit d aught of emotion, it was when, lor a moment, their eyes met each other One quick fierce glance ol hostility would then be exchanged. It was melancholy to observe thi‘ silent but expressive evidence ot deadly hate hetween men, who by birth, interest, association, by every tie that can bind man to man, ought to be brothers. We regret that the article on Po. litical Economy, which we conclude in this day’s paper could not have appeared entire in one number, as it contains a species*of historical in lorniatiomYvhicli we beiieve is not of ten found by our readers. Erratum. —In our tenth number we puli lished a Communication from the Rev. Mr. Gautier, in which we made a mistake, by in serting the words, “as accessary,” in the body of the 10th interogatory. In the origin al interegatory, it reads thus : “ 10th. As Hawkins neither signed the Treaty as accessary as a witness, or chief, what law did he break which re quired his death? The law of Nations.” As it thus stands, the public will, perceive that the charge of interpolation against the Rev. Mr. Smith, is wholly unfounded. —Ed. ~ MARRIED, On the 15th February, by James AValker, Esq. in Jasper County, Mr. John Reid, of Decatur, to Miss Elizabeth C.
