I mildness .trul forbearance. But, by such jeiH'isals, the government that does the wrong suders less tlian the unoffending subject. It seems a more just reprisal to occupy the province which lias Keen made an instrument of injury, which has been designated by Spain herself as the fund for our indemnity, and whose occupation by the United States will stop the accumulation oftliose claims for compensation and redress, which (he mis rovernment of that neglected colony continually produces. The committee submit to the house a bill to authorize the President of the United States to take possession of East 4c West Florida, anJ establish a temporary government therein. There appears too much reason to believe, from the mistake of the Spanish negotiator, as to the dates of the Span wli grants, which it was intended to an nul, if the projected treaty had been ratified, that the Crown lands in Florida may be insufficient to provide the ex pected indemnity for our losses. But these may be applied, as far as they will *0 to the compensation of our citizens and fir the excess of our claim, Spain by whose act the domain of Florida has been rendered inadequate, must expect us to look westward. Perhaps, when our attention is thus forced to a direction more interesting to Spain, her govern ment may at lust admit that it is as much her interest as ours, that the just claims of the United States should be .provided for by friendly convention, and we mad hope that the next treaty between the two nations may be executed as well as signed. The following bill accompanied the re port : Rt it enacted, tfc. That the President of the United States be, and he is hereby au thorized and required to take possession of, and occupy, the territories of East Ik West Florida, and the appendages and appurte nances thereof; and he is hereby authorized, for that purpose, to employ any part of the army and navy of the United States, St the militia of any state, which he may deem 11c- ,C S*L- y ’:. And be it enacted. That, until the end of the next session of Congress, unless provision for the temporary government of tlto said territories he sooner made by Con gress, ail the military,civil, and iudicial pow ers exercised ,by the officers of the existing government of the same territories shall be vested in such person and persons, and shall be exercised in such manner, as the Presi dent of the United States shall direct, for maintaining the inhabitants of said territories in the free enjoyment of their liberty, pro perty, and religion: and the laws of the U. States relative to the collection of the reve nue, and the importation of persons of color, shall he extended to the said territories; and the President of the United States shall he, and he is hereby authorized, within the term aforesaid, to establish such districts tor the collection of the revenue, and during the recessof Congress to appoint such officers, w hose commissions shall expire at the end of the next session of Congress, to enforce the said laws, as to him shall seem expedient. ' Sec. 3. And be it enacted, That the sum of dollars is hereby appropriated, for the S oie of carrying this act into effect, to be out pf any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, and to be. applied under the direction of the President of the United States. The bill was twice read, and referred fo a committee of the whole on the state of the Union. From Charles Pinckney, esq. to the editors of the Charleston City Gazette, dated Congress Hall, 8thMarch, 1820. Dear Sir—I wrote to you yester day, and ns it may be important to you and our friends to know it, a large committee have just reported a bill, to authorize the President to take pos sesion of the Floridas, when in his opinion it shall appear proper, and to appropriate the necessary funds tor that purpose. This has arisen, from our not hearing, or not expecting to hear, satisfactorily from Spam during the session. 1 am, dear sir, &e. CHS. PINCKNEY. Norfolk, March 11. “We have a report here that Ijteut. Percival, of and from the U.

Since writing the above, I have seen Lieut. Percival, and have opened this communication to inform you that he left the Macedonian at Pana ma, Dth January; crossed the Isthmus of Darien, anil arrived in Hampton Hoads yesterday in a vessel from Ha vana.

Statue of Washington—We have been favored with the perusal of a letter written by Jonathan Russell, Esq. of Massachusetts, (late United States Min ister to Sweden) and addressed to the Honorable Nathaniel Macon, on the sub ject of the Statue of Washington. This great work, so honorable a proof of the patriotism & public spirit of North-Car- °bna, and which has excited such gen eral attention, it will be recollected, is «nder the hands of that celebrated •sculptor the Marquis Canova.and is now ne arly finished. We are highly gratified nt the favorable report which Mr. Kus- gives of the taato and correctness displayed by the celebrated artist. W very much regret that we have not the liberty of publishing this truly interest ing and gratifying letter. To the cias sic scholar and man of taste, it would prove a rich repast—-to all it would be liiirhiy interesting as conveying a clear ami distinct account of one oftlie "Tcatest monuments of art, destined to commemo rate one of the greatest men die world lias witnessed. “ The marble employed in the execu tion of the work, (we a’re told) like him itis destined to commemorate, is without a single spot.’’ RECORDER. MILLKOUKVILLM, Ti ksday, March -8. Oj^Tlie Committee of Foreign Relations, as will be seen by their Report, recommend that the President be authorized to take pos session of the Floridas. Qjc* On the Pth inst. in the House of Re presentatives, our active and useful member, Mr. Cobb, offered an amendment to the mi litary appropriation hill in the following words, which however was afterwards with drawn, under the impression that it had bet ter he annexed to the bill making the civil appropriations for the current year—“ibr the purposcof holding Treaties withlhe Creek and Cherokee tribes of Indians, for the extin guishment of the Indian title to all the lands within the state of Georgia, pursuant to the •Uh condition of the 1st article of the Articles of Agreement and Cession concluded between the United States and the State of Georgia, on the 21th day of April, 1 BO", the sum of thirty thousand dollars." Qy** Mr. Secretary Crawford's Report on the condition of the Banks and the state of the Currency, is generally spoken of as an, elaborate and valuable production—such we certainly deem it to be, and regret that wc can only give from it extracts, which we shall, from time to time, publish. 05** With Mr. Reid’s Speech, we close the Debate, on the Missouri (Question, of which we ha\ e no doubt our readers arc heartily tired. No small difference of opin ion prevails among those opposed to restric tion, as to the propriety of the compromise by which this question w as finally settled.— The Editors of the National Intelligencer committcda mistake,(which (hey hav . since corrected) in saying that Mr. Cobb of this state was an advocate for the compromise. We are warranted in saying he was oppos ed to that compromise, from a conviction that it Wu6-unconstitutional and unjust. TOR THE RECORDER. The pressure of the times is a general complaint. It is iiot my object to enu merate the causes whir., have conspired to bring about ibis rapid change in our circumstances which we little anticipat ed, or to murmur against the allotments of l'rovidence. Amidst all our difficul ties and embarrassments, w e have abun dant cause for gratitude ; k. this gratitude ho old be expressed by affording immedi ate reliefto those among us who feel most sensibly the withering hand of poverty. It is a fact too well known, that some of our citizens would have suffered for the common necessaries of. life, had it not bceu for the charily of individuals. It is equally true that many of our children are wasting their time and contracting vicious habita, merely because their pa rents are unable to defray the expenses of their education. Whether any thing can be done to produce a change in their condition, is an enquiry! of magnitude. It is my opinion, as an individual, that it cau be effected with comparative ease. The liberality of our citizens has been too frequently tried to admit eveu a doubt on the subject. When an individ ual is designated as an object of charity, every thing necessary for his relief and comfort has uniformly been supplied with the greatest cheerfulness and prompti tude. But in such cases, it is necessary that some person, in whom the public reposes confidence, should lead the way, and solicit personally the aid required. This is done by those who seize a mo ment in the intervals of their profession al duties for this purpose, or who touch ed with symjiathy for their fellow crea tures in distress, remit their attention to their own business, that they may pay this debt of humanity. Charity conduct ed on this plan is certainly very com mendable, and affords an ample proof of the publick liberality ; though it must be acknowledged incapable of reaching every case. The plan which I would now offer to our citizens is ot a more general char acter, and calculated to be more exten sively beneficial than any which has yet been adopted in this place. Let a socie ty be formed for the express purpose of relieving the wants of the indigent, and educating the children of the poor.— Let two or more individuals be appoint ed in every ward of the town, who shall constitute the prudential committee ol the society, and whose duty it shall be to examine the cases of all who may ap ply for relief; let this society apply to the corporation for their assistance if it should be needed ; and at the next ses sion of our Legislature, let them peti tion that a certain poitionof the funds appropriated for establishing free schools be granted for the purpose of educating the poor children in this place; and then wc shall client what is proper und suita ble to be done—we shall be charitable on a plan that is calculated to produce extensive and permanent good. Institutions nro formed in many popu lous towns in our country on a similar plan, and have effected vastly more than their original promoters ever imagined. And is it not time that we should follow these worthy examples? Is it not an object of sufficient magnitude to aw aken our attention, and engage our energies in its behalf? The coldest calculator tlqit ever gave a morsel of bread to the hun gry must acknowledge, that charity con ducted on a proper plan, is better for the community and easier for individu als than that which constrains the needy, to beg from door to door. And every one who suffers himself to retlect, must admit, that it is altogether important for the children of the unfortunute and the poor to receive an education sufficient to qualify them for transacting the pomuipn business of life. Milledgeville, March 25, 1020. FOR THE RECORDER.: It is impossible I think, for nny man of whatever party lie may lie, who has any re gard for the honor of‘the (Rule or its moral character, to read the piece liiTlie. journal and Recorder of tile 21st jnsf. signed John Clark, without experiencing fet illigs 6f mor tification mingled with' tlisgust; arid 1 am sure, it would not be believed in any part of the United Stales, where. Ids Excellency is not personally known, had it not been bead ed “Executive Department, Georgia,” that it was written by the Governor of the State. His Excellency says that Moore’s “ conduct ip this business is far from being censurable, except indeed, he should lyive taken the ori ginal letters instead ofeopics,” This asser tion is some what equivocally expiessed, but I presume Iris Excellency meant to say, that Moore was censurable only, fur not having taken the original letters instead of copies. What a monstrous doctrine for the Gover nor of a Slate to propagate; and liow de plorably must the malignant passions have prevailed over his reason, lc> induce hint to make such a declaration in a. public newspa per. It strikes at the very foundation of ci- vil soeiely, and the drstiuction of all those social relations by which wc are held toge ther. It is certainly all important however, that Iris Excellency sheuld support the character of bis friend Moore, because, he appears to be die forlorn hope to the column of evi dence with which he lyis attempted to assail me. And he therefore repe .ts that lie is of fair character. Now I certainly think, and I believe most other people will think as I do, w ho are not bewildered by passion and prejudice, that his Excellency lias himself said enough to establish the character of Moore without tfie aid of any proof on my, part. He admits that Moore went to my di sk, and took copies of Icttem, arid that lie was authorised to search my desk by eapt. W. S. Mitchell, my son, who had my autho rity to do so. But his Excellency has for gotten, that the authority here spoken of as being given by captain Mitchell, if it were matured, is denied. But supposing it true, does it follow that because he was permitted to go to my desk, that he was .to rille it of its contents? Did the permission which lie says lie had to search for a paper specifically nam ed hv himself to have been the object of his search, authorize him to take other (vapors ? or might lie not as well have taken money, or any other valuable article, as the paper!) lie says he did take ? That Moore did not take the original, letters, is no doubt a sub ject of serious regret to his Excellency, but the truth is,.Moore would have been as wil ling to lake llie originals as his Excellency would have been to receive them, hail any such letters been in existence; hut, no such letters were there, and Moore being no doubt under obligation to do something for the gratification of his employer, thought the best substitute for the want of originals would he to fabricate copies, which, with his fair character, and the iiitinence of his triend the Governor, lie would establish as taken from genuine originals. The circumstance of Moore’s ha; iog kept tile original letter, which he received from an Indian, goes a great w ay to prove, that he would have ta ken the originals from my desk instead of copies, had such originals been there; or wily did lie not take a copy of chat, and give me. tile original ? With respect to Mr. Thompson’s affidavit, I cannot conceive why that should so alarm his Excellency. 1 have not as yet presented it for tlie. consideration of the public, and if iiis Exc’y will favor us with a few mole of his “ moral reflections,” I think it will pro bably be unnecessary. He has already ad mitted enough to establish the fair character of William Moore, without the aid of Mr. Thompson, whose character is certainly as fair as Win. Moore’s; for, although in a legal sense there may he a difference between a man who acknowledges tile commission of an offence, and the man who has been con victed of it, yet in a moral point of view, they are the same. And I can assure his Exc'y, that I neither threatened Hoy Coaxed Mr. Thompson, nor did 1 promise him to “ go the whole amount tor Inni.” These are expedients to which I had no need to resort in procuring his affidavit, for it was given vo luntarily, and will he supported by others, which will establish the real character of Moore, in despite of Executive patronage. The dirty insinuation, that a license was gi ven to Mr. Thompson to trade with the In dians, as the price of tlie affidavit, is beneath contempt, and only serves to prove, that the man wno made i<, is conscious that such would he his own conduct if in my situation. Before I take leave of the masterly pro duction of his Excellency, permit me to ask, what is meant by the concluding sentence, where lie asserts, that “ well disposed citi zens will not withhold important facta that may tend to a complete developeilient of this nefarious transaction, and thus wipe off a foul stain from the character of the State.” It is hardly possible that his Exc’y can have reference to the nefarious., transaction of his friend Moore, for, he assures us in the out set, that the object of his publication is to inhibit the taking of any more testimony on that subject: although he has not proclaimed the penalty for disobedience—that omission wc are left to supply by imagination. My own conjecture is, that lie must have had his “ mind’s eye” on the introduction of Af ricans, and most probably the case of those in which lie, and his friend Moore, have made so conspicuous a figure. But, here a- gain I am met by inconsistency and contra diction so strong, that this conjecture cun only be supported by an admission, that th assertion ol Ins Excellency is only one of those extraordinary flights, not at all unusu al w ith persons of brilliant imagination and eccentric, genius: and not easily comure bended by ocfiple of ordinary capacity like myself, kor I believe it is universally known, that the Africans alluded to, were brought into the State by Mr. M’lulosh, un der the authority of the Collector of the Fort pf Brunswick, How his Excellency van apply tlie epithet nefarious, to this trans action, Or that it brought a foul stain upon tile character of tin: State, is for him to ex plain. Unless indeed ha lias reference to the sale of a number of those Africans under a law of the .State, in direct opposition to the provisions of the act of Congress. And if surh be. his meaning, its applicability will be admitted by ail who have not got astride of tlie subject, as a hobby upon which to ride, like tiis Excellency, into public notice. The public will see by the letter of the hnndrahle John C. Calhoun, Secretary of W pr, ot the (With of last mouth addressed to me, a popy of which w as sent to the Gover nor and published by him, tlie course which has been given to the enquiry into the ow nership and introduction uf the Africans re- lered to. All I ask is a Suspension of their opinion, until the contemplated enquiry is luid, and they hhall then have a full state ment ol the whole affair, by which they will be enabled to come to it just conclusion.
