No tlmo was limited for the rulHImout of this obligation, and near a quarter of a century had pasnd away without eccing its execution. At length. Georgia, toeing no end to this delay, be came Impatient, and Juotljr so, the long delay being equivalent to a breach of the agreement; for.

It ceded all llio Creek country in Georgia, and also several millions of acre* in the Siato of Alabama. Complaints fol lowed U to Washington, as having been concluded by McIntosh without tho authority of the nation.— The ratification of tho treaty was opposed, but fi nally carried, and by tho strong voto of 34 to 4.— Disappointed in their opposition to the treaty nt Washington, the discontented party became vio lent at home, killed McIntosh and another chief, cUrUxJ twrdiMu nMUtnnoa tn tho o locution nt rim treaty, and prepared to resist. Georgia on her part, determined to exocuteit by taking possession oi tho ceded territory. Tho government of tho United States felt itself bound to interfere. Tho now Presi dent, Mr. Adams, becamo impressed with tho con viction that tile treaty had boon mudo without duo authority, and that ita execution ought not to bo en forced, and sent Gcu. Gaines * ith federal troops to the coniines or Uoorgia. All Georgia was in a flame at this viow of force, and tho neighboring States sympathized with her. In the meantime thu President, anxious to avoid violence, and to obtain justice for Georgia, treated futther, and,assembling the head men and chiefs of tho Creeks at Wash ington City, concluded a new treaty wiih them, (January, 18*46,) by which tho treaty of Indian Springs was annulled, and a substitute for it nego tiated, ceding all the Creek lands in Georgia, but none in Alabama. This treaty, with a message detailing ail the difficulties ol tho question, was immediately communicated by tho President to the Senate, and by it referred to the Committee on In dian Allairs, of which I was chairman. Tliecom- milteo reported against tho ratification of the trea ty, earnestly deprecated a collision of arms between the federal government and a State, and recom mended further negotiations—a thing the more easy, os the Creek chiefs were still at Washington. The objections to the new treaty were: 1. That it annulled the McIntosh treaty, thereby implying its illegality, and apparently justifying tho fato of its authors. U. Because it did not ccdo tho whole of the Creek lands in Georgia. 3. Because it ceded none in Alnbama. Further negotiations, according to tho recom mendation of tho Senate, were had by tho Pres ident; and on tho 31st of March of tho same year, u supplemental articlo was concluded, by which all the Creek lands in Georgia were coded to her, and the Creeks within her borders bound to emigrate to a new borne beyond the Mississippi. Tito voto in the Senate, on ratifying this new treaty and its sup plemental article, was lull and emphatic—thirty to seven ; and the seven negatives all southern sena tors, favor&hlo to the object, but dissatisfied with the clause which annulled the McIntosh treaty and implied a censure upon its authors. Northern sen ators voted iu a body to do this great act of justice to Georgia, restrained by no unworthy feeling against tne growth and prosperity of a slave state. And thus was carried into effect, after a delay of a quarter of a century, and after greut and just com plaint on the part of Georgia, the compact between that State and the United States in 189*2. Georgia was paid at last for her great cession of territory, and obtained the removal of an Indian community out of her limits, uttd tho uso and dominion of all bur soil lor settlement and jurisdiction. It was an incalculable advantage to her, and sought in vain under three successive Southern Presidents—Jeffer son, Madison, Monroe—and now accomplished un der a Northern President, with the full concurrence and support of tho Northern delegations in Con gress—for thu Northern representatives in tile House voted the appropriations to carry the treaty into ef fect as readily as the senators had voted the ratifi cation of tho treaty itself. Candid men, friends to the harmony and stability of this Union, should re member theso things, when they hear the Northern Slates, on account of tho eonda’cl of some societies and individuals, charged with unjust and criminal designs towards the South An incident which attended tho negotiation of tho supplemental article to the treaty of January, deserves to be commemorated, as an instance oi' tho frauds which may attend Indian negotiations, and for which there is so little chance of detection by either of the injured parties—by the Indians themselves, or by the federal government. When thu President sent in the treaty of Jnnunry, and alter its rejection by the Sen mo becamo certain, thereby leaving the federal government and Geor- J ia upon the point of collision, 1 urged upon Mr. antes Barbour, the Secretary-at-Wnr, (of whose department the Indian Office was then a branch,) the necessity of a supplemental articlo, ceding ail tho Creek lands in Georgia ; and assured him that, with that additional article, the treaty wovld be ratified, and the question settled. Tito secretary was very willing to do all this, but said it was im possible—that the chiefs would wl agree to it. 1 recommended to him to makc.thcm some presents, so as to overcome their opposition, which ho most innocently declined, beenuso it Would savor of bri bery. In the mean time, it had been communica ted to mo that tho treaty already made was itself the work of greut bribery—the sum ol $160,000 out of $*447,000, which it stipulated to the Creel; na tion, being n lend for private distribution among the chiefs who negotiated it. Having received this information, I felt quite sure that the lour ol tho rejection of thu treaty, and the consequent Josd ol theso $100,000 to the negotia ting chiefs, would ensure their assent to the supple mental article, without the inducement of farther presents. I had uit interview with the leading chiefs, and made known to them thu "interesting" fact, that tho Senate would reject tlio treaty as it stood, but would ratify it with a supplemental arti clo ceding all thoir lands in Gctirgiu. With this information, they agreed to the additional article, and then tho whole was ratified, as I h.,vo already stated. But u further work remuined behind, it was to balk tho fraud of tho corrupt distribution <>| $160,000 among a few chiefs, and that was to be done in tho appropriation bill, and by a clause di recting tho whole treaty money to bo paid to the nation. Tho caso was communicated to tho Senate In secret session, and a committee of conference appointed (Messrs. Benton, Van Burcn and Berrien), to agreo with iho House committee upon tho proper clause to he put in tho appropriation hill. It was also communicated to the Secretary-at-VVar. iiu sent in a report from Mr. McKinney, tho Indian Bureau clerk arid actual negotiator of the treaty, admitting the fact of tho intended private distribu tion, which, in fact, could not bo denied, as 1 held an original paper, showing tho names of all tho intended recipients, with tho sum allowed to each, beginning at $*40,000, and ranging down to $5,000 ; ana thst it was done with his cogniznnco. Some extracts from speeches, delivered on that occasion, will well finish this view of a transaction which at one lime threatened violence between a state and tbo federal government, and in which a great fraud in an Indian treaty wua detected and frustrated.

Theso voluntary offerings come, not only from States. corporations and individual*, but from European powers, and even from more distant nations. Berni-harburous communities, as well as more civilized kingdoms, have added their tribute to this greut national work. Nor is (ho homage, thus paid to Washington, merely a com pliment to the United States. It is, on tho con trary, a mark of respect to that wonderful man, who stands not only "fiist in peace,first in war, and first In the hearts of liis countrymen," but first also in tbo estimation ol all who have heard tho story of his Ilf*, so truly great, because so morally sublime. Even the Huitun has contributed on of fering, while Egy pt has **nt a block of her famous granite. Never, in the history of tho world has a monument been raised, to which so many differ* ent nations, tongues and religions havo aided. Per* hap*, never again will unothor ho constructed, in which such distant and various peoples will uMist. And the fact proves, what evury right-minded man will bo glad to know, that moral greatness stiff wins more revorcnce and lovo that intulloctual pre eminence. No man, tor many generations, has been so in' tellcctualiy eminent, perhaps, us Napoleon. Tho departments of mind in which lie excelled, more over. were exactly euch as tho majority of men can nest understand.

To their present subscribers who do not sooner re new their subscriptions, tho pnper will be fur nished nt tho reduced rntes on and alter tho 1st of January, nnd those who have paid in advance will bo credited accordingly. Wo propose also to issue a Weekly pnper, com mencing early in November, at $‘4 00 n year, to be paid for invariably in advance. To clubs uf ton, tho Weekly will bo furnished nt $15 00. Wo make this reduction in the price oi tho Re publican for three reasons: First,because wo de sire to scatter tho paper over this and ndjoining States, in order, as far as we are uble, to extend the relations and incrense tho business of Savannah, believing that whatever promotes tho prosperity of the city cannot fail to exert a beneficial effect upon our own fortunes. Tho great facilities we possess for distributing daily, trt-weckly, and weekly intel ligence, by means of our railroad connections and steamboat lines, encourage us to believe that tho un dertaking will be, because it ought to be, successful. Secondly, because other papers throughout tho country are reducing thoir rates of subscription, and wo would place our readers upon a looting as favor able as that enjoyed by tho readers of those papers. Thirdly, because we shall never bo more able to make a reduction than nt present. Wo would not boast of our success, yet we beg leave to say that the support whii'h our patrons have accorded us up to this time, enables us to make this reduction, and thus to oiler some slight acknowledgment for their past favors. Wo hope they will seo in this fact reason for a continuance of their patronage, and for such efforts as they may find it convenient to make in procuring us additional subscribers. The step we have resolved upon must result in loss, without a largo accession of subscribers. Tho growing importance of Savannah, ns a com mercial centre, to the planter, tho merchant, and indeed to ail classes, at least in this State, renders it unnecessary for ns to offer any argument why they should avail themselves of tho means thus of fered, for obtaining the latest and most reliable in telligence from all quarters, both by telegraph and the mails. Remittances by mail may be made at tho risk of the Proprietors^ Cotton from Columbus.—Tho completion of a continuous line of railroad front this city to Columbus lias opened a new channel for trade, and wo are pleased to find that tho current has already turned in our favor. Wo aro credibly informed that during his week all of three thousand bales of cotton have been consigned nnd will bo received here, direct from Columbus, which, if it were not for ruilroad facilities and low freights, might, ns in former years, have found tlicir way to Apalachico la. While wo heartily congratulate our merchants on this accession to their business from nn entirely new quarter, we sincerely hope that the nicrclinn's oi Columbus, nnd tho planters who forward their produce to this market, will realize all their antici pations, and find in tho end that their interests Imvo been greatly promoted. If wo nre not mistaken iu tho evidence furnished by this large shipment in one week Irum Columbus so early in tho season, we may calculate that the bulk of the cotton which will be received there this winter will find its way over tho railroad to this city. The receipts at Columbus last season were up wards of 55,001) bales of cotton—nine-tenths oj which, before (ho opening of tho Muscogee Rail road ,wero shipped by river to Apalachicola. Wo are informed that the estihiated receipts this year, nt Columbus, will be nearly or quite 70,000 bales, and this anticipated increase over last season is based upon tho facilities and inducements which are af forded by railronds, for its rapid and cheap trans portation to an Atlantic market. This large nnd early shipment, wo take it, furnishes reliable evi dence that the merchants, who arc gentrnlly close calculators of costs and expenses, have duly con sidered the relative advantages of river and rail- mud transportation nnd of iho Apnlacliicola and Snvnnnuli markets, and have dccidrd in our favor. Tho existing slate of European affairs has had a depressing influence here, ns in every other mar ket, upon the price of Cotton, nnd wo fear that pres ent shipments may find a dull and oven declining market. This, however, is owing to uncontrol- ablo circumstances which exist in other places us well ns hero, and is not tho result of local causes. Intelligent merchants however, understand this, and wo conclude by reminding those who pur chase cotton for sale in this market, of tho mercan tile adago thnt "n thing well bought is hnlfsold," or in oilier words that tho profits or losses of trndo depend as much upon tho skill of the buyer as upon tho effort of tho seller. Tho steamship Key Stone State, Capt. Hardie, for Philadelphia, sailed yesterday morning at 9 o’clock. Wo learn by tojograph to tho ngonts, Messrs.

Wo should much regret to too any change mado In tho Court by tho Gonernl Assembly—unless it bo to locato it at Bomo one central point, nnd fur nish It with asuitablo library nnd building in which to hold its sessions. Heretofore, politics havo not been allowed to havo any influonco in tho compo sition of tho Court, nil of llto original Judges hav ing boon ro-oiccted nt tbo expiration of their re spective torms. And boro wo may point tho mem bers of the Legislature (0 the recent verdict of tho people. Notwithstanding tho success oi tho Dem ocrats throughout tho State, six out or nine of tho Judges of iho Circuit Courts are Union men, sumo ol whom resido in Circuits largely Democratic.— Tho only inference that enn ho drawn from this is, tho poople are unwilling to surrender thoir lives and property into the keeping of Judges seloctod on po litical grounds. In other words, they prefer an ablo and independent, to a merely political Judicia ry. Will not tho Legislature follow tho precodcnl hero set them by tho people I It would bo a seri ous injury to tho people, if not « disgrace to tho Legislature, to drag down tho highest tribunal in tho Stato nnd forco it into tho dirty political arena. Wo hope, for tbo snko both of tho pooplo nnd the Legislature, that it will not bo dono, and that Messrs. NtsBETnnd Starnes will bo continued in their present positions. President of the Georgia Senate— the Elec tion in Muscogee.—A# Joseph atuigle Esq. or Col umbus, lias been spokoti of in connection with tho office of President of tho Stato Senate, wo have thought it not amiss to lay before the render the following extract of a privato lotte/ to tho Mil- lodgoviilo Recorder : "Columbus, Oct. 4th, 1853. "Joseph Sturgis and Alexander McDonald, both of whom you know, und who httvo some notoriety in the State, have been elected to tho Legislature front this county-the former to tho Senate and tho latter to thu Houso of Representatives. “ Doubtless, botlt you uud tbo public will be somewhat disappointed at this result ; but it is easily accounted lor when tho under-currents and outside influences which were brought to bear in the election are understood. It is no test ot tlio political parties in tho county . Tho holders of thu bills and other demands against tho broken bunks in this place, are endeavoring to enforce their col lection by pursuing tho assets into tho hands of those win* obtuined nnd hold them improperly, nnd also by enforcing tho liability of tlicir stockholders under tlicir respective charters. Tho recent deci sions of the Supremo Court have been favorable to their efforts. It, thorcforc, becomes necessary to change tbo members of that Court; nnd as there are two Judges to elect nt the ensuing session, tins has been seized on as a favorable occasion to bring about that result. "Tho relations of tho gentlemen elected to the stockholders, being their counsel—nnd one, the brother of Daniel McDougald, one oi tho lurgest stockholders sued—renders tht m particularly adapt ed to their purposes. But tbo hardest feature of the whole matter was, to sec how freclv the money mado by those failures, and so unjustly withheld from the people, wns used, to thus defeat its re covery Mark what I say to you: this is but a beginning ol tlicir operations—thus far they have succeeded ; but it is yet to bo seen whether tne Re presentatives of the people will permit such an outrage on their constituents.” Tho result in Muscogee county wns tho causo of no little astonishment throughout tho Stato. Until tlio r recent election, it frail been as truo as the needle to the polo, to Whig nnd Union princples. It is but just to add, however, that the Columbus Times denies the truth of the statement contained in the foregoing extract. It says the Bank question exerted no influence whatever upon the result, and that stockholders and bill-holders voted indiscrimi nately on both sides. We do not pretend to pass any judgment upon the merits oi the two statements here produced.— We publish them simp'y that the members of the Legislature may understand the issue made by the friends und opponents of Mr. Sturgis, who, as tvo have already remarked, lias been spoken of as the next President uf the Senate. If the charge prefer red against him bo untrue, then Ins claims should he judged by thu same standard that wu apply to other men, if it should appear that lie is fitted by diameter and experience for the position. If it bu true however, or if there is the least reason to sus pect it is true, it is needless to say tho Senate w ill be required by every consideration of morality and self-respect, (•• select some other man to preside ovor its deliberations. Crops.—A private loiter of the 16th from Loo county, states that the weather for tho past three weeks in that section of Georgia has been very la- vorublo for picking out cotton. Crops are promis ing, both of cotton and corn, the latter yielding much better than they promised during the drought in the early part of tho season. A considerable demand for provisions is anticipated, ns tho pros- poet for the extension of railroad facilities through that country, will causo many largo planters to settlo there front various sections of Georgia and other States. Thu health of tho country is Btuted to bo excellent.

Tho work embraces n great va riety of tnaguzino illustrations; nnd, independent ol its purely literary character, it furnishes articles of considerable merit upon tho current events of tbo timcB. This number fully sustains the woll es tablished literary reputation of tho work. Liberality of Merchants —Wo find tho fol lowing parngrnph in tho loroign nows: Mr. W. Brown, of tho firm of Brown, Shipley, &. Co. of Liverpool, has presented tho muniheent sum of X'Goct) sterling to establish a second froo library in Liverpool. Mr. Brown is one ol tho inc-mbors of Parliament lor tbo county uf Lanca shire.

At tho present timo many instances of this may bo pointed out in this country, which are loo obvious to need mention. Tho Journal is induced to allude to tho suhjojt at present, from tho fuel that somo of tho New York merchants are perfecting a plan for the purchase of the Egyptain Museum of Dr. Abbott, and tho establishment of on Oriental Society in that city.

The prisoner was searched and all tho money and papers found upon his person. Washington Affairs.—Tho Washington cor respondent of tho Now York Herald says: Li tters from thu Georgia Union democrats say it Guthrie’s division of the letter had been received before iho Juio election, it would have lost them iho Slate, nnd it hns created n deep feeling of disgust to Virginia. The secret is now out why Senator Hun ter would not tuke a seat in the Cabinet. It is that, having signed the famous protest against the Com promise law, swearing liku Hannibal on the altars of his country, eternal wurageinst the compromise, lie would not forswear himsell by becoming a part nl an administration to uphold that compromise, by purchasing up with offieo the nefnrious abolition traitors who assailed tho Union and made it necess ary to adopt that measure.

Religious Persecution in Tuscany.—A letter dated Florence, Sept. 19, says: "I deeply regret to have to writo to you of fresh cases of intoler ance on the nurt of the Grand Duke of Tuscany. It was hoped that the obloquy he incurred through his treatment of the Madmi, would have led him to entertain more liberal governmental opinions, or at ail events to be more guarded to the manifesta tion of tlmt fanatical spirit which really animates him, and to relinquish nil thoughts of curbing lib erty of conscience by uelg uf persecution. That the man is hopelessly unchanged and unchangeable, the recital of the following lacts will, 1 fear, render hut too apparent: "On Monday, tho 12th inst., fourgeusil’nrmspre sented themselves at the residence of Mrs. (.tin- uinghnme.nn English lady passing tin* summer with Iter two daughters nt tho Bagiu di Lucca. They demanded to see Miss Margaret Cimninghninc, the youngest of tho daughters, and made her at once their prisoner, desiring her to prepare to accompany them to the fctn.ilc penitentiary ut Lucca, distant from the baths about fourteen Engtisb miles The arnsl took place at ntid-dny, and they remained in MissC.’s room during the entire time she packed up her things, rctusing to allow’ her maid to assist her, or herself to cn'erlniu any conversation with her mother or sister. " She was lodged in prison tho same night, nnd hns remained there ever since, and is to remain until her trial takes place, a period of time the most indefinite, if the usual course of proceedings lie followed. I have not yet stated her crime. It is having given two tracts, written in Italian, on religious subjects, to a poor woman with whom she had entered into conversation in one of her moun tain rmnnles. Of her guilt—il such an act can he called a crime—there is no doubt; indeed, the young lady has frankly confessed that of which she is accused, thinking tlmt she had not acted con trary to any laws, human or divine.” Frost and the Tobacco Crop in Virginia.—A Idler in tho Lynchburg Virgin inn, from a gentle man in Nelson couuty, Vn., dated the llth inst. says: The frost Inst night, to my great surprise, mado a clear sweep of all tho outstanding tobacco in this region. I am now convinced that the frost nnd knife together have shortened the crop about tine- half. All of the tobacco standing on James river, where it was thought the fogs would proloot it front the frost, is bitten black ; no mistake about it, as 1 have seen it with my own eyes. On the 8th inst. there were only 1,2>H> hhtls. in the warehouses at Lynchburg, nnd tho Virginian estimates that the sixty manufacturing establish ments in that town will require Irom 60 to 9U hhds. a day. The high price at which tobacco lias rang ed through the season, it says must have druwn in nearly the entire stock from the country. The re sult is obvious. The supply will fall far short of the demand in Lynchburg, nnd the factories will be compelled to suspend, or greatly diminish their operations. From Richmond and Petersburg there are accounts of a like scarcity of stock on hand. Tho Kieluuoiiii Enquirer also stales that many planters, not only m Nelson county, hut in Am- herst, Buckingham, Prince Edward, Appomattox, Rockbridge, Campbell, Bedford, Botetourt, Roan oke and Fiunklin counties, as well as counties lower down on the Roanoko river, sutlered severe ly, by thu frost catching much unripe tobacco in the fields. fa * Frost—The Crops.—Tho Sumtorvillo tS.

W atehman of the 1 till inst. says : " Our section ol the country w«» visited by a pretty sharp Irost on Wednesday morning Inst, nnd a few more of tho same kind will put an end to vegetation generally. Wo learn from some ol our most respectable and intelligent planters, that their cotton crops will fall far short ol their expectations a mouth ago. They calculate that two-thiids of their crop have al ready been gathered out of the fields. This is cer tainly a slim showing.

A dispatch from Vienna, dated Oct,3*1, states that tho Divan ut a grand council held that day, had resolved upon u decla ration ol war against Russia, nnd that thu Sultan, against tho advice of tho Four Powers, had signed the declaration. A report says that hostilities had already com menced. Omar Pacha had previously made strong demand for leave to light before tho winter sot in. The Russians were supposed to bn movoing to at tack tho Turkish positional Rohustoek. Previous accounts hnd put a different faco on matters. The meeting of tho Emperors at Olmntz had terminated, and a new proposition was to be imulo to the Porto, Austria again siding with France, England and Prussia, und conlureuccs were to bo resumed nt Vienna. Hut a telegraph despatch from Constantinople ol tho *46th. slating that the Grand Council of tho Ot toman Empire hud recommended thu Sultan to de clare war, had caused nn immediate meeting of the British Cabinet, and excited the greatest apprehen sion in thu public mind.
