In our columns to-day, will be tlmnd another letter from General Gaines to tho Governor of Georoia, end a summary of testimony, which goes to shew the respect able character of the evidence, upon which the General, in his former lptter, ventured to assert that no consent hod been given by the friendly Crcoks, tor the survey of the lamia. If the other assertions of the Gen eral have no better foundation than this, it will be wisdom iu him to maintain the same silence which he maintains at the present time, on the subject of the certificate of Marshall and Edwards. A more puerile production, than the let ter from the General, to the Governor, which we also publish to day, has seldom come before us. Its illustrations and al lusions are in the worst possiblo tnBte; and the whole composition, vapid and pointless in the extreme. Affecting t deal ol dignity and severity, the General has fallen into the opposite extremes. It is evident that the sword of the General is his proper implement, not the pen—and a controversy of the kind, in which lie has engaged, is the worst possible field for the display of his talents. The General should be grate ful to the Governor for the suspension of a correspondence, in which he has shown to go little advantage. The Milledgeville Recorder states that it jg not the intention of Gov. Troup to order the eurvey of the Creek lands before the next session of Congress. It will be recol lected. that the Governor has already inti mated, in his communication to the Presi dent, his intention to defer the running ol the line till the meeting of the Legislature of Alabama, in accordance with the wishes of that state, a part of the lino being be tween that state and the state of Georgia.

Friday, Aug. 19 The Court met this morning at 10 o’clock —there was no cross examination ol Limit. Hunter ; ho made an explanation respecting some horses on bonrd the Franklin. Lieut. Henry was called by the Judge Advocate—and the examination was closed on the part of the prosecution at 3 o’clock. Lt. Henry had command of the schooners built for despatch boats, and manned from the Franklin ; he also commanded some of the boats employed in bringing specie, bul lion, <fcc. from the shore nn board that ves sel. His testimony was directed chinfiy to the manner in which these schooners were built, equipped, and employed ; on all which points it bore a favorable aspect Inwards the accused. The bullion &c. brought on board the Franklin was the property of Capt. Smith and Captain O’Sullivan ; and. in one case a Spanish Deputy Governor was present, when it wus bought from the interior and embarked in the boats. He introduced aud read letters of instruction from Commodore Stewart for most of his movement.'—by one of which, an American vessel was recaptured from a Spanish brig of piratical character. The Court ndjourm d to 10 o’clock to morrow morning. Cen. Gaines lias officially stated, that the Treaty-making party constitutes only about oneji/iieth part of the Creek Nation.

Letters from Liverpool state that Cotton had fallen to I8d, and that the embarrass ment in trade had been caused by great quantities of forged Bills ol Exchange drawn on Manchester, and negocinted at Liverpool. It is said the forgers have esca ped to America. The Cotton market at Havre had decli ned again; the best saie9 were at 28j lo 34 sous for Uplands, 30 to 34 for Tennessee and Alabama, and 30 to 38 for N. Orleans. The Paris papers of July 14, announce,in letters from Italy as late os the 3d, that a signal victory had been gained by the Greeks over three divisions uf tho Turkish Army, who had advanced upon tho Penin sula. The first division was destroyed near Ambliani, by Gen. Gouras, tho coinqiander in chief, who perished in the battle. The eccond division was besieged in the fortress of Salonc, and the third, after having been beaten, had dispersed and fled towards Nc- gropont. The reports respecting the situation of Ibrahim Pacha, wore contradictory—some stating that ho was surrounded by the Greeks at Messnrie—others that he had been defeated by Colocotroui, and forced to to retrace his steps upon Modon.

The 2d article of tho Trea ty, as will be seen by reterrence to it, con tains this clause:—“ whereas said Creek nation have considerable improvements within the limits of the territory hereby ce ded, and will moreover have to incur expen ses in their removal, it is further stipulated that, for the purpose of rendering afur equi. vulcnlfor the losses and inconveniences which soul nation will sustain by removal, and to enable them to obtain supplies iu their new settlement, tho United States agreed to pay to the Nation, emigrating from the lands herein ceded, the sum of four hundred thou sand dollars,” &c. In Ins Talks to the In dians, Gen. Gnines says to them, (wliut the Treaty does not authorise 1 that this money will be paid to the Nation at largo, in tho manner they receive their stiponos—to tho hostile Indians of Alabama as well as to the friendly ones of Georgia—ns woll to tlmso who remain as to auch ns emigrate. Could any plan be more cunningly devised to take strength from one party and add it to the other ? When it is officially made known tu the Indians, that such of them as prefer to remain on their lands, without suffering the slightest privation or inconvenience, are to share the purchase money for improve ments relinquished, equally with those who emigrated—that those who givo up their improvements, and incur all tho fatigue and expence of a long journey and a new set tlement in the distant wilderness, are to surrender to their deadly foes, tho murder ers of thoir friends and brothers, half ofthe money of the Government contracted to pay to them, and to them only, for the improve ments they would leave behind—Would it not he pasaing strange if. under such cir cumstances, tlie emigrating party hud not diminished and tile hostile one incrcaesed, in proportion to Ihe ndvanlagea held out to the one party, and the difficulties thrown inthe way ofthe other ?—Self-interest ia a princi ple engrafted in our nature, and infiuenena alike the conduct of tho Indian and the while man. What right Imd Gen Gaines, or tho President himself, to offer to the hos- tilo Indians, money which belonged, by a provision ofthe treaty, exclusively to the emigrating party ? If the treaty was a fair oile the money was justly due to the Indi ans who emigrated—if fraudulent, was it preside.

Many of these men I am as sured will do me tlie justice to believe that tlie United Slates soldier, whoso respectful communications of June and July lust, you answered with official arrogance, would cheerfully seize upon any proper occasion to throw himself between them and the fire of an invading toe; to save from harm tho hum blest citizen nf the slate.

I have thus shewa tlie causes of com- pluinlon our part, and have endeavored to show iu reference to tlie mode in which those complaints have been uttered that the sickly sensibility which lias been exhibited at the language of truth is unfounded.— We have been called traitors and disnrgan- isers and lunatics, for tho assertion of our just rights.

IF,- .1 east should not lake tlie opportunity uV.,n our country was oil tlm brink of ilestmc- (ruction to oppose liur measures, ami oid by uir local quarrels i: public and ferorunii enemy—we have, heaven knows, cause si complaint, and we take the most fit oppur- tuiiity togvo utterance to it—but should lie enemy he nt onr doors, we should be ready for the cniifiirl, and go hand und heart ill support of the cause nf the government, not that wc should think of the causft uf our complaint less—but of our country more. A recurrence to the history of tlie Amoriran people for twenty yenrs past, wit shew on which side tlie buiance of pnlrii- lism lies ; und tlie utter hollowness of dm present prutessioiis made by our iippiiuniiis of exclusive patriotism and devotion tothe Union. It will shew that whilst the Snntli- ern states have aided nnd supported tin country under every aspect of its affairs, in the midst of suffering and privation of eve ry description, in the worst of times, rhe majority of our adversaries have never soperted it further than when it was cun- dur.ive to their interests. When the pro- sure was felt, their patriotism cooled—uni when disappointed in their objects, or wliti tlie necessary measures of tlie General (i» Vernment bore hard upon them, tlie Union wns not considered so sacred, as it suits die interest of irinuy among I hem to consider .1 nj-w, in their prosperity und dominion, it is not my design to give such a history, but I shall cite a few instances in support of my assertion. The opposition ofthe Eastern and K".< them stales to the South, i hough it did not originate on tile election of Jcfibrsnii, ro- coived a considerable addition la ib strength.
