Interesting.—Yesterday,before (lie. Court
of Sessions, a trial camu on which excited
m ore than usual interest. It Was that of a
beautiful young woman, whose unassuming
modesty mdueed Price and Hodman, at
torneys, to volunteer their able services in
ber behalf. She was charged with having
passed a three dollar bank hill, knowing the
same to be a forgery. After a trial of about
three hours, the Jury retired, and were nb-
iibscnt two hours. So lively was the inte
rest in her behalf, that no one who heard
the pleading left the court room until after
the Jury returned its verdict, which was, not
guilty. Such was the acceptability of the
verdict, that the crowded court instantane
ously expressed their joy by a spontaneous
cheering and clapping.
RECORDER
MILLEDGEVILLE, Tuksdav, Apkii. 4.
O-Ata partial assemblage of the good
people of Boston, it was lately determined
by unanimous consent, that a general meet
ing of the citizens of that town lie ronvenod
“/or tht purpose of taking into consideration
the late decision of the Con screes of the Unit-
td States on the Missouri Question, and the
propriety of expressing the sentiments and
feelings of the citizens on thefurther extension
of slavery." The Editor of the Boston Pa
triot enquires very rationally, “whatbenefit
can possibly result from the proposed meet
ing, on the Missouri Question, which has
been so long debated in Congress, discussed
in every circle, and ultimately settled by the
supreme power of the Republic ?
“ The territory from which slavery is er-
thided, by the act admitting Missouri into
the Union, is ns large as all that portion of
the United States east of the River Missis
sippi. There is no other portion of the ter
ritory. into which slavery can he admitted,
but Arkansaw. Thus the greatest liberality
has been on the part of the slave-holding
states. This compromise is the result of a
most serious and alarming conflict between
the slave and non-slave holding states.
“ Vo measure which individuals may a-
dopt, can alter the compact which has been
made, between Congress and the people of
those territories, embraced in the act for the
admission of Missouri: the act cannot be
repealed, as it respects that state, or the Ar-
kansaw territory; it is in the nature of a
contract, which cannot be violated. Why
then call meetings, which can only tend to
fan the flames of discord and extend that
ruder of the oflicers denounred: for it
could hardly be believed that they were
proceeded against and censured wholly
upon ex parte proof ; and without being
heard, or even notified of the intended
investigation. 1 have, however, the me
lancholy pleasure of knowing, that the
investigation, if it really took place, was
ex parte, and that I was not previously
" informed ot the nature and cause of
accusation, ’ nor allowed an opportunity
of being "confronted with the witnesses
against me,” a privilege guaranteed by
the constitution of the United States to
every cili/.cn, even to the poorest nud
most wretched offender. The National
Intelligencer of the 19th Dec. which 1
received in the month of January last,
contains a resolution of the Senate of the
United States, under which, it seems,
the committee in question acted.
“ The resolution is as follows :
" Resolved, That the message of the
President and documents relative to the
Seminole war, be referred to a select
committee, who shall have authority, if
necessary, to send for persons and pa
pers ; that said committee inquire rela
tive to the advance of the United States'
troops into West Florida; whether the
officers in command at Pensacola A. St.
Marks were amenable to, and under the
control of Spain, and particularly what
circumstances existed to authorize or jus
tify the commanding general in taking
possession of these posts.”
“ As the committee did not “ send for”
or notify me to attend its sittings, I could
not suppose, under this resolution, that
my conduct was to be inquired into, and
I was confirmed in this conclusion, from
the well known fact, that the order for
“ the advance of the U. States’ troops
into West Florida” did not originate
with me, though I was convinced that
the measure was indispensably necessa
ry to give security to our suffering fron
tier settlements.
After much inquiry and reflection,
to ascertain the ground of accusation,
and to determine upon the proper steps
to enable me to penetrate : nd counter
act the designs of my personal-enemies,
l hare traced it in part to a false state
ment, which appears to have been made
to the committee, upon oath, by D. B.
Mitchell, Creek Indian Agent.
“ How it happened that this agent was
in Washington, near seven hundred miles
from his agency ; and why he should
have been called before the committee
to bear w itness touching mv conduct,
without my having been notified there
of, I am totally at a loss to divine or re
concik with any sound principle of even
handed justice.
“ The arrival of several vessels, laden
with Africaus, on the coast of Florida,
from whence they could he conveniently
excitement which, fortunately for the Union,
appears to have been checked by a wise, po
litic and magnanimous compromise? In- smugglud into the Creek Nation, pre-
strnd/>f joining in the ^ensures against those 8en ted such golden prospects to persons
members from the north and east, who were
in favor of an amicable adjustment, the real
friends of the Union should bestow upon
them their praises, their thanks; they have
saved the country from a most alarming sec
tional conflict : they have established the
integrity of the Union on a firm basis ; they
have forever put at rest the delicate subject
of slavery, so far as the national government
can take a part.
“This town has once expressed its senti
ments, and the State Legislature has passed
resolutions evincive of the ideas entertained
by that body, on the Missouri question. Can
any good grow out of another meeting in
Boston ? No citizen of the United States
wishes slavery. All arc anxious to diminish ;
to extinguish slavery, but not at the erjiense
of a civil war. Let, therefore, all clamor
cease, and one opinion prevail—the impor
tance of cultivating harmony and good will
among^all parts of the Republic."
If it be true, as stated, that the hrave
Dec ATua has fallen in a personal rencounter,
the unfortunate circumstance cannot too
much be lamented. Commodore Barron,
from whom he is said to have received a
mortal wound, is supposed to be the same
officer who commanded the Chesapeake
when she was attacked by the Leopard, and
who, for not making a proper defence, was
suspended ten yerrs from command by the
sentence of a Court Ma
fur was President.
Martial, of which Deca-
ft?" By a letter from Washington City we
learn, that nothing could have been more, un
expected to the House of Representatives,
than the Report of the committee of Foreign
Relations, which recommends the occupati
on of the Floridas. Very few in either
branch of Congress seemed disposed to sup
port the President in the position taken in his
Message, and it was thought from that cir
cumstance and the pecuniary embarrass
ments of the country, that no report would
have been made at the present session. The
measure, we are told, will meet with strong
opposition ; yet we think it will be adopted,
leaving a discretion perhaps with the Presi
dent, to act as circumstances may require—
m that event, he will probably wait still lon-
f* r f° r the arrival of the Spanish Minister.—
U. S. troops from the North are moving to-
wards the Floridas, and Spanish troops it is
said have been ordered thither from Havan-
na.
ft?" Accompanying the Report of the Se-
Frt Committee, which will be found on the
first pag e c r to-day’s Recorder, are several
Documents—among these, a letter front Ge
neral Gaines to the Secretary at War, dated
Augusta, Ga. October 17th, 1819, has attract
e, l our particular notice—from that docu
ment the following extracts are copied:
‘ Sir—i have been inexpressly hurt
* n< embarrassed by r, publication pur
porting to be a repoyt of a Committee of
a * e f,en! 'te of the United States, wltich
Ppeared in the newspapers about the
0,e °f the last session, animadverting
i*on and censuring my conduct in the
,al * Seminole war.
_ j ,vaa embarrassed because of the
y i'Uy and manifest injustice of this act
witl?!k' >r€ ’ ,,s ^ ere ^ forth to the world
' he apparently irresistible force and
emnity of a decree of a high tribunal,
disused to embark in that lawless and
ignominious traffic, ng to produce im
mediate efforts on their part to bring a-
bout an understanding between them and
the Florida Indians. A half-ivar half
pence system, was evidently most desir
able to those smugglers ; because the
intercourse between the two places
would, in that case, be confined to the
select few possessing the confidence of
the prime movers of that detestable traf
fic ; of whom 1 have not a doubt, but th it
the agent, l). B. Mitchell, was one. He
was accused by some frontier inhabitants,
as well as by Colonel Brearly, and cap
tain Melvin, of having received at the
agency near one hundred smuggled
slaves ; and in consequence of my hav
ing noticed and exposed his conduct, he
has endeavored to injure me by a false
and malicious attempt to prove me guil
ty of an act which he considers to have
been the immediate cause of the Semi
nole war.
“ The report further states, that
“ General Gaines, without orders,Took
upon himself the authority of raising
an army of at least sixteen hundred
Creek Indians, appointing their officers,
with a Brigadier General at their head,
and likewise mustering this force into
the service of the United States.”
" I cannot find upon what testimony 1
am thus charged with raising an army of
Creek Indians, and appointing their ofli
cers, with a Brigadier-General.
“ 1 can truly say that 1 never did raise
an army or any part of an army without
proper authority ; nor did I ever appoint
an officer without proper authority. 1
feel convinced that every honorable
member of the committee will find, on
re-examining the documents and testi
mony published, on the subject of the
Seminole war, that, in regard to the
friendly Indian warriors, l did nothing
more than to accept or permit them to
join and co-operate with me in the in
tended expedition against their &t our
enemies, the hostile Indians. It will be
found that the friendly warriors who
first proposed this co-opeiation, were
prevented, by the intrigues of the ne
gro smuggling agent, from joining me ;
nor did any ever join me until after the
arrival of Major General Jackson, whose
presence relieved me of the duty of de
ciding on the propriety of imeepting or
rejecting their co-operation^tf retaining
or discharging them. I appointed none
of the officers belonging to any of the
friendly Indian* in question; 1 think they
appointed their own officers.
“ I have devoted my time almost ex
clusively, ever since my earliest duys
of manhood, to the theory and practical
duties of my profession ; and although 1
have frequently seen in newsprpers and
other publication*, biographical memoirs,
and statements relative to ray conduct,
full of misrepresentation ; and which it
has often been completely in my powerto
correct, by the publication of undeniable
proof; I have abstained from doin.7 so
from a belief that my attention should
not be thus diverted from my public duty,
and under the full impression that every
honest and intelligent citizen, knowing
the trust reposed in tne, and having some
knowledge of my humble efforts to me
rit a trust so high and honorable, will
naturally conclude that 1 Can have no
reasonable motive to do wrong, and that
every consideration connected with my
present and future welfare must strong
ly prompt me to endeavor steadily to do
right ; 1 therefore conclude that they
will consider me to be innocent, until 1
am lawfully proven to be guilty. I claim
no privilege but such ns is common to
every citizen, andsnch as is guaranteed
to all by the constitution and laws of the
L nited States.—Exemption from thecru-
el A unmerited punishment of reprimand
and censure without a hearing, is one a-
motig the dearest of those privileges.”
ft?" A letter from a member of Congress
to one of the Editors of this paper, dated,
Weshington, 17th March, says, “IVs have
just got through the. civil appropriation bill
in the committee of the whole house, and
it is now under consideration of the house ;
where it may undergo small alterations in
some of the articles reported by the commit
tee. But what I more particularly wish to
inform you is, that Mr. Cobb offered an a-
mendment to the bill while it was before the
committee, appropriating thirty thousand
dollars to defray the expense of holding a
treaty with the Creek Indians, for the extinc
tion of their title to laud within the States of
Georgia. Mr. Cobh presented to the eom-
mittec a clear statement of the just demand
which the State of Georgia has on the ge
neral government, for the extinction of the
Indian title to lands within the tnritnrial li
mits of the State, agreeably to the articles of
cession entered into between the State and
the federal government, on the 24th April,
1802. In his speech Mr. C. made a very
good impression on the committee in fayor
of the amendment. The measure was sup
ported by Mr. Campbell, of Ohio, and l»y
Mr. Cuthbert and Mr. Abbot of Ueorgiu,
and was finally agreed to. After the com
mittcc rose, a message from the President of
the United States was read by the Clerk
which had just been received, recommend
ing an appropriation of money for the very
purpose of holding the treaty contemplated
by the amendment, and for obtaining a res
toration of property taken by the Indians
from individual citizens of the Uniletj States.
“1 have thought proper to make this com
munication to you, from a conviction that it
will be agreeable news to the people of Geor
gia, whose rightful claims on the Govern
ment have been egregiously neglected in re
lation to the extinction of Indian titles to
lands within the territorial limits of the State
of Georgia.”

Message to the Senate of the United Stales :
It being stipulated, by the 4th article
of the articles of agreement and cession,
entered into on the 24 th of April, 11102,
with the state of Georgia, that the Unit
ed States should, at their own expense,
extinguish, for the use of that state, as
soon as might be done, on reasonable
terms, the Indian title to all lands within
its limits; and the Legislature of Geor
gia being desirous of making a further
acquisition of said lands at this time, pre
suming that it may he done on reasona
ble terms; and it being also represented,
that property of considerable value
which had been taken by the Creek and
Cherokee Indians from citizens of Geor
gia, the restoration of which had been
provided for by different treaties, but
which has never been made, it is propo
sed to hold a treaty with those nations,
and more particularly with the Creeks,
in the course of this summer, for the at
tainment of these objects. I submit tht
subject to the consideration of Congress,
that a sum, adequate to the expense at
tending such treaty, may he appropria
ted, should Congress deem it expedient

Pirates Punished.—This day at 1!
o’clock, Judge Davies, in an eloquent
and impressive manner pronounced sen
tence ofdeath on the following persons,
convicted at the last term of the District
Couyt of the United States, in this city
of murder and piracy on the high seas,
viz:—Ralph Clintock, of the privateer
Siiartau, for piracy on the Danish brig
Nordberg ; John Furlong, of the priva
the murder of Capt. Thomas Sanby, of
the ship Ann, of Scarbro’; David Bow
er, ot the privateer Louisa, for piracy
on the stiip Asia ; and Henry Matthews,
of same privateer, for piracy on the ship
Thomas Hardy. Bower and Matthews
were recommended to the mercy of the
I’rcsident, by the jury. We under
stand that the Court-house was much
crowded ; and that Clintock made a sen
sible and impressive address, and ma
nifested talents which it is truly to be
deplored, were not devoted to society
and his country—divulging many cir
cumstances attending the capture of the
Nordberg. They are sentenced to be
hanged on Friday, the 28th of April next.
Clintock, it is said, asked an extension
of time, for the purpose of affording his
friends an opportunity to intercede in
his behalf, with the President of the U.
States ; and to prepare a narrative for
the public eye, in which he intends to
give a full exposition of the whole af
fair. To this request, the Judge did
not respond.
The fate of these unhappy culprits
will it is to be hoped, check tlie progress
of that burbarous and imp outlive plunder,
wltich has so long spread danger ami
death upon our seas, corrupted our sea
men, and dishonored our country.

Nf.w-York, March 14.
The fast sailing.ship Stephania, Capt.
Burke, arrived at this port on Saturday
evening, in 26 days from Havre, having
left the river on the 16th ultimo. The
letters, however, ure only to the 9th and
our Paris papers to the 8(h of the month.
The passengers inform that it was ru
mored when they sailed, that the insur
gent troops of Spain had marched to
Madrid, that the guards of the king had
turned against him, and that he was as
sassinated or had fled. There is nothing
in the papers corroborative of this report,
though it will be observed the passengers
are 8 days later from Havre than the date
of our papers. It appears that Cadiz was
not in possession of the insurgents so lute j
as the 21st of January, but it is stated as
a rumor, that the gates of the city were
opened to them on the following day Ano
ther rumour was that Cadiz still hied out
on the 24th January.
A copy of a French Translation of Brack-
enridge's History of our lute War with Great
Britain, has been received in the city by a
late arrival at New York. The Translation
is by Mr. De Dolmas. The undertaking to
publish such a work in France proves of it
self that the History of our Country, and its
onward march, excite uo little attention
there.
The same vessel brought a copy of a letter
from the distinguished La Fayette, on
the occasion of the presentation to him, by
the French author, of a copy of his work.
The folhnviug translation of that letter we
know, will be acceptable to our readers:

Military Gallantry.—In a debate in
the Senate on Friday last, on the Bill,
making compensation to Gabriel Godfrey
for a barn destroyed by the U. S. troops
in the battle of the River Raisin, the
following instance of gallantry was rela
ted by Mr. Trimble, und confirmed by
other gentlemen from the west.— ‘In
the combined attack by the British and
Indians on General Winchester’s army
at the river Raisin, the enemy derived
groat advantage from a barn within short
rifle shot of the picketing of the Amer
ican camp, by means of which they were
not only sheltered hut enabled to fire
into the pickets. It was all important
that the barn should he destroyed and
the enemy dislodged. The soldier in
question, at the almost certain sacrifice
of Ids life, rushed from the pickets to the
barn with a torch and set it ou tire
and had the good fortune to escape the
bullets that were showered at him tho’
he suffered greatly in his rigging. It
was this barn, which the soldier’s torch
destroyed, that compensation was prayed
for.”
REVOLUTIONARY PENSIONS.
This subject bus occupied much of
the time of the House of Representatives
for several days past. It appears pro
bahle at present, that the Pension Law
will not be touched at all; not that it
not acknowledged that frauds more or
less numerous may have been committed
under it, but that it is supposed no pre
ceution will prevent them. The bill re
ported with that view is now amended
so as to be completely a blank ; and it
doubtful whether that blank will
filled with any thing or not.
