An adjourned meeting of the citiaena of Savannah and of Chatham county, was held at the Exchange yesterday, pursuant to pub. lie notice—Moj. Jno. Stevkns, in the chair, aud Anthonv Portfs, Esq. Secretary. Dr. W. C. Danifi.l, Chairman of the Commit tee appointed by the meelingon Friday last, to prepare an address to the Peopleof Geor gia, submitted the following for considera- ation, and it was unanimously adopted. TO THE CITIZENS OP GEORGIA. FELLOW CITIZENS I Within the short period of twenty years, Georgia hsshad placed at her disposal four large and valuable bodies of land, which now sustain near one half of her whole popula tion i Tiiese lands have been distributed amongst her people by a system of Chance, and whatever may have been the benefits accruing to individuals,save in the increase of her population, the state has derived no ■ubstantial nor permanent advantage. By a late treaty with the Creek Indians, ano ther portion of territory has been obtained government, and a consequent relief from taxation. Wo speak not of the incronse in value of real estate, and of personal labor, the sum of which would very far oxeced rhe whole amount invested in internal improve, ments. The facilities that would be afford ed to our citixcns by carrying commcrM to their very doors, increasing the demands for some, and creating them for other produc tions of the soil now comparatively valueless, would far, very far surpass their individu als interests in the Lottery System. The bacon, flour, corn, die. now imported into thia state for home consumption, amount ingannually to many hundred thousand dol lars, would then be supplied by our own citizens of the North West, and who now have po outlet fur those articles. There is nothing exaggerated in thin view of the advantages which would result from such an application of the public domain— Our conclusions are drawn from the expo, rience of other states and countries. Pub lic improvements oft his character elsewhere, arc for the most part dependent upuu the resources of the people by a system oftaxa tion. This state has already ample means, which if properly appliod, will in addition to the other benefits relieve us from taxation. How enviable are the advantages of our State I How imperious upon us the duty of ilBingthem judiciously! With these views, fellow-citizens, of onr resources, their applicatinn, and the advan tages derivable from their proper use, brief ly and frankly submitted to your considera tion, we request you to meet together, pa tiently and candidly to examine the subject Tii* Op no Outragr*.— 1 The most false anu malicious misrepresuniuLiuns wiil no doubt bo made upon thin subject.

The polilicul intelligence by these arri vals, does not appear to be of importance. The Petersburg Journal ofthe 1st March, noticing the conferences between Mr. Strat ford Canning and the Russian government, remarks unofficially as mutter of opinion- that “ the Emperor, in concert with iiis al lies, will not consent to the independence of the Greeks, except on comlitition of their recognising a Prince given ilium by the Allied Powers, and under a constitution formed by t hemselves ; but then it is affirm ed that the English Cabinet is of a diffeieut opinion.” The recognition of the South American states by England and consequent specula* tion, h s raised wool in Prussia 25 per cent. Letters from the. East Indies of {Septem ber last, slate that the Dekkan is in a slate of famine from two yutfra drought. A letter from Boineuy of the 1st Novem ber, 1824, says—“ The crops of cotton at llawnaghur, Porbutider, Mangroie, and all the districts near Cutch, are entirely lost; they had no rains at ail there, und people arc coming daily from thence ill search of food. Surut, Broach, and JauibooMier, it is stated,will produce about half the usual crop, or 25 000 bales.und now common old broncit cotton, sells here at 102 rupees per candy.” An Egyptian Trading Company is about to be formed in England. It is said in one ofthe letters- from Paris bv the last French Mail, that at the lust dabinet Council, the Duke, of Angoulemo proposed for the adoption of tho govern* ruent, a line of conduct similar to tiint of Mr. Huskiwson, in the repeal or modifica tion oi the import duties, but that this pro position wus overruled by M. De Villein, on the ground that the tiuauciol slate of France would not admit of it. In the British House of Commons, the West India Company Bill was read a sec ond lime, after a slight opposition. A coni mittec had been appointed, on the motion of Mr. Iiuskisson, to inquire into the effect of the repeal of the comuiuution laws.— 160.080 ounces of silver, aud 00.000 ounces of gold, had been shipped lor Jamaica. Ac counts from Alexandria state that the Inst year’s cotton crop m Egy»-t was 200.0J0 hales ; 150,000 of which were expected ic he shipped for England. Steam packets were to lie established to convey merchan dize, &c. from Constantinople, Smyrna, und Messina to Leghorn, where it is' pro posed to trails ship tlm former into the ves sels of the Mediterranean steam packet company. The paper makers in England had added 7} percent to the price disposal of their lands—with these, they have been made acquainted by interested white men among them, and tueir ctfoct on the iniudM of a huif-civilizcd race, might have been anticipated to be bloodshed and robbery. The specious cant of philanthro py has been adopted for tho worst purposes —the Creeks have been represented us victims to tho cupidity of the whites—anu the fulfilment ofa solemn compuci between the United States and the state of Georgia, lias been repics nted as un act of oppression and injustice of tho most ilngaruut charac ter. We do not mean to enter into a dis cussion ofthe merits of the removal of the Creeks. They have been paid u fair con- sidnr&tion for thoir lamia—t here is no dif ference between their removal and that of all the Indians within the boundaries ofthe Union, which has been recommended from the purest motives, by our lute President, and with a single view to their benefit— the Florida Indians have been removed and left to starve, and no pen has been vo lunteered in their behalf. The Creeks up- pear to have monopolized all the lender toelmgs, and Georgia all the vitupurutioii ofthe philanthropists ofthe day. Noiio of those Tribes who once possessed the whole of this extended union, where sienceaud the nrts have assumed the place once occupied by tho Savage hunter, have ever received Our imports iu the course j JV now , e( ^® other vessels aro on ifu ■ - - wav, have hnd the effort to depress nric^ and these prices could not be obtain ' 1 utter terms for the relinquishment of their lands than the Creeks—the policy of the government ofthe United States, bus ever mi to obtain possession of ull the Indian lands which stand iu the way of the iucreas mg population of the whites. The prin ciple lias keen recognised by the highest oft thud authority—and there us nothing in the situation ofthe Indians of Georgia, to make them an exception. As we hav;i said,how ever, it is not our intention to enter into discussion of the subject. The cant of the lay. is the misfortunes and sufferings ofthe Indian population—it is one over which eve ry tyro in Literature has lamented—whilst in Ins admiration for the Savage tomahawk mid scalping knife, lie has forgetton the rights and sufferings of his own race. It has been assumed for political aud pecuniary objects—its effects are proved in the recent bloody transactions in the Creek nation-- on those who have adopted it, let their due share of guilt fall. Cot.ombmn Capture.—A large Spanish ship, mounting eight guns, bound from Ca diz to the Havana, wi’li a vnluahlo rargi was captured off Mntanzas by a small Co lombian privateer, and arrived in safety at Porto Cavello, about the beginning of A- pril.

Yesterday morning thu market opened with great briskness, and a farther consider able advance in price was asked, but the de mand suddenly ceased ; to-day, however, there has been again a fair extent if bushiest done, and all sullies being still kept out by contra• t'y winds, the prices continued rather to im prove.
