Georgia and the United States.— From the National Intelligencer.—The only event that ha? disturbed the serene cn!m which succeeded the agitation of the Presidential Election, is the catastro phe which terminated the life ofthe gallant Creek General McIntosh—an eveut in itself to be lamented, because he was a merito rious and enlightened Chief, who had al ways loved the Americans, and had fought for them by the side of our most renowned Captains—but more to be regretted because of the dissent ions iu which it had its rise, and the collision between the General and State Governments which it iB possible may flow from it, because we trust there is enough of forbearance and discretion, on ei- therside, to check and overlook the ebulli tions of n °re feeling on this really import ant subject, and to consent to its decision on the principles of justice, equity and humanity. We have to-day an opportunity of pre senting to our readers a series of official papers relative to this subject, received by the mail of yesterday, having been publish ed by the order of the Legislature of Geor gia; from which the public will learn the ground which, on the first view of this transaction, has been taken by each gov eminent. We shall not, upon the little re flection we have been able to give to the matter, undertake to give any positive opi nion on any part of this subject. But, without having deeply considered it, per haps the reader will not object to our offer ing. in our discursive way, a few of the considerations suggested by a hasty perusal of those papers. The main points at issue appear to be. first, the extent of the obligation of the United States to chastise tho Indians who have committed the late barbarous murders —murders, we call them, for we consider the pretence of a law, if not ex post facto in its nature, yet made by the murderers themselves, as a subterfuge too flimsy lor to peace and harmony of the two govern been Bold these 4 days.

We knew he would be the hist man in the country coolly to meditate a dissolution ofthe Union, as some have pretended to under stand him. “ I would olfur up my life with plrew e.” says he, “ to sustain this Uuion for a single day.” And we do mos: sincere ly believe that lie is the man who would li terally do Avhat he says. When that Union was thought to be menaced in other quar ters. and at other t imes.we have heard him, with impassioned eloquence, denounce tho treason, as from the bottom of his heart he would have abhorred the traitor. lie has given utterance, on a particular topic, to “ words*hat burn.” but, in the paragraph to which we refer, he candidly discloses the source of an excitement, which he appears to regret as much as those who have depre cated the effects of it.

The second point at issue is the ebhgation of the United States, under the circumstances of I he case, to carry the Treaty with the Creeks iuto immediate ef fect by force. The first of these points, in the absence of any settled rule of national law by which to be guided, must be determined on the reason ofthe case. The obligation ofthe United States to protect those survivors who were menaced with the fate of McIn tosh—to forbid further effusion of their blood, if the Treaty were wholly silent on the subject, would, on the score of mere humanity be undeniable. That obligation this respect, as others have done, which wc are happy to have been able to avoid, in do ing .justice to what we know to be the real feelings, convictions, and attachments of Governor Troup. In conclusion, let us hope, that no 6tep will be hastily taken by the Government of the Union or of the St ate of Georgia, in re gard to this matter, which either will have cauee hereafter to repent or to regret. They have a common interact in a harmonious ad justment of it, which it would be unfortu nate should either misunderstand, and un wise, once understood, should either lose ight of.

It is true, that certain claims of Georgia for services ofthe inilitia against Indians thirty years ago, are yet unallowed, and the amount ofthem (as we think) unjustly refused. But the case of Georgia is not an exception : no particu lar disrespect was meant to Georgia iu re ference to these claims : they were decided on principles, perhaps, of. strict justice, though, as we think, of justice too strict: days after your notification, which, pardon mo. sir, I did believe was intended for the " ' ’"" V ' the subject, to which it refers, "before the and inaccuracies which my pamphlet con and, the decision, lately made, right or orated pedestrian wno oversees the works. pu blic,in the columns of a nowspaper.before i tains.it is intended to convey the idea of a wrong was not made by the Secretary of Capt.

The anonymous publication in yesterday’s Journal, ofthe same date of your letter, and taken in connexion with the language of it, leaves no doubt ofthe source whence it originated. I. consequently, considering my relationship to the Depariment. feel re" s rained from making suitable comments thereon. It is, therefore, only left for mo War nor by the President, nor during the adininistrstion nf either. We cannot disco- er. in the course of the General Govern ment, indicated by the papers before us, any thing but a disposition to do justice to the rights of Georgia and of the friendly Indians. Its policy is to protect those who are in danger, and prevent future violence, between the Indians. If it shall appear that any persons holding ' dice under the U. States have, as is suggested, fomented these dissentiotts, there can be no question but they will receive permission instantly to retire from the trusts they have abused. With regard to the second ofthese points, itappe.ars tit us thoreisa preliminary consi deration which supersedes the necessity of a present decision of the main question.
