Let these men never he forgotten I Several of them were members of the corrupted Assembly. They resis ted, with scorn, alike persuasions and me naces. They were no more affected by bribery, or throats, than were the “ Con script Fathers” intimidated when the ruf- finn Gaul entered the Roman Senate ; no more moved by allurement, or hostility,- than the “ everlasting rocks” by billows of (lie ocean. Fellow Citizens, the events of that aw ful period when the assassin’s dagger was ^..frequently used for removing our worthiest men, and when no reputatiou was exempt from calumnious accusation, have passed away. They flicker before our eyes, without a distinct vision : we hear of them, from our departing Fathers, without getting a definite impression. To think of the vices of those who have pre ceded us, will arouse and redouble our detestation for villainy—to meditate on their virtues, will animate us to laudable exertion, and cheer us in the path of rec titude. Such has been the experience of our present virtuous Chief Magistrate.— Too young to be an actor in these trying times, from the narrations of those who did net, and from whnt his boyhood sbw, he acquired a zeal for the rights of Geor gia, and an enmity to those who robbed her, which will perish only with existence. To this cause, trace his invariable, consis tent, and lofty opposition to the Yuzoo claimants in 'Congress—to it trace his manner in his recent correspondence with the President and his officers—to it trace his determination to maintain at all haz ards, the inalienable rights you possess to your oln.ro, and to your Indian territory !

Let the speculators and puifcha eers abuse him—let the hypocrisy of the day Compare him to the Hartford Conven- tionists—let “major genetals command ing,” “ clerks of bureau,” and “ Indian agents” insolently assail him, and, in re turn he supplicated to “ eat, drink and be merry" at the tables of the disaffected— let him be denounced as madman and foul —hejwill firmly, honestly, and wisely, ad here to the Bark of State, and ultimately confound your foes!

SATURDAY MORNING, SEPT. 17. We insert to-day a history of the Yazoo Fraud, which will be found to contain ma ny particulars, not generally known. It is written with ability, and displays an inti mate acquaintance with .the transactions recorded. We learn from the Republican, that Alexander Telfair, Esq. is not a can didate for Representative in the State Le gislature, at the election next month. A baicofSea Island Cotton, from Ossa- baw, of excclle it quality, the,|ftrst receiv ed this season, was brought to this mar ket on Thursday. Citv Council.—A special meeting of Council was hold on the 8th inst. when the Aldermen elect were qualified, William C. Danilii, elected Mayor, and Joseph W. Jackson, Chairman tor the ensuing year. The Mayor laid before Council, a letter from the Intendent of Charleston, with a Report of the Medical Society of that city, on the subject of tho prevalence of the vari oloid, and unswers to tile queries also pro posed to the Intcndant by the Mayor, which were read. A letter from S. B. Parkman, to the Mayor, was read, informing him that he was contracting with Ephraim Force, of New-York, for four ongiuos, with apparo- tus, hose, &c. complete. The cost of each would be $780, and the hose 87J ccut6 per foot—the whole cost delivered on board a ship in Now-York, would be $4,175—$2100 of which, would,be required at the Branch Bank in February, aid the balance in March following. A regular meeting was held on Thurs day, 15th inst.—Present, tho Mayor, Al dermen Harris, Morrison, Philbrick, Miller, Gildon, Cummins, Jackson, Wavne, Williams, Gaudry, and Minis. The minutes of the last regular and ad journed meetings were read and confirmed, except so far as relates to the bill entitled an ordinance amendatory of nn ordinance amendatory of the firo ordinance, passed lltli March, 1825; and the report and rcs- olatimi of tho committee appointed to re port a site for a new pump in Indian-St. which with the report of tho committee to loves not war— lie loves not disunion—but! consolidate the acts incorporating tho city he will do his duty, when Georgia is made ■ of Savannah, were .reconsidered, a foot ball.

Montilla, our Com mander in Chief, received per packet,states that 29 sail of French vessels of war were cruising off St. Jago do Cuba, and that they hod landed 5000 men at Cumberland Harbor. This news has put us all on the alert— The General is taking every measure to raise recruits. Carthagena is at present garrisoned by 2000 men, and the provinces of Cnrihngena and Santa Martha have a regular militia of 10.000, therefore, although taking every precautionary measure, we have nothing to fear from such a force, even if intended against us, Which I much were doubt.” Tho above information, Cnpt. Clark states was fully confirmed by the Captain of tho British Ship New-York Packet, of London. 11 days out from Kingston, (Jam.) bound to to London, which he spoke on the 17th August, off Capo Antonio. He also informs that upon its receipt at Savanilla the Chief Magistrate had the drum beat to arms, determining to embody the whole male population, capable of hearing arms, under the impression thnt this expedition was destined against Colombia. The Mail bag between Windham and Canterbury, Conn, having been recently broken open and robbed of notes, drafts and money, amounting to about $5000, suspi cion rested upon n young man by tho name of Orange Sherman, uged 19, who was em ployed iiqcarrying the mail from Canterbury to Windham, who was accordingly appre hended, and has ben committed to prison. FROM ONE or THE EDITORS We left Saratoga nn tho 12th August ; dined at Bnllston, where we found a great deal of company, and arrived at Schenectady in the evening, in time for the Utica Canal Boat. We had merely tiino to Schenectady from i he roof of the houso. W e wero informed that the Canal had much injured it, as goods formerly bought there by the facility of transportation, wero now got in Albany. Wo left this place at 7 o’clock in a large and commodious Canal Puckut-Buat, faro four cents per mile. I was much pleased with Canal travelling, 1796 nnd 1800, and ours J If there be, it is in their greater safety !

Did hypocrites, from Maine to Louisiana, preach up the doctrine of civilization of Cieek and Clierokue savages, and that their appeal to be planted, to perpetuity, upon our soil u cannot be unavailing” 1 Did the doctrines of that stormy period surpass those of this, in relation to the functions, express and implied, construc tive and adjudicated, of this now all-ab sorbing confederation 1 No ! no! our condition is worse! The State is insulted by federal officers, who treat her as a Province, We demand payment for mili tia claims, honestly rendered thirty or for ty years ago ; and are told that the claim is stale. We sold to the Union oh empire, and we get in consideration, pittances of • our reserved land.

A few miles further on, we passed a number of rough lughouaes with elsy cliimnies, which be came more common as we advanced west. After passing a great many handsome and lory flourishing villages, most of which, having canals communicating with tho prin- pal one; we arrived at Auburn about 12 at night, to sleep. This was the most un comfortable day’s travel 1 have had, the day being warm, stage crowded, roads over high hills, and carrying thu mail, stopping each two miles at a Post Office, and mak ing but 76 miles in 20 hours. Auburn is a large village containing 1500 inhabitants and a number of niilis.uian- ufaclnrieB, &c. to which it owes all its im portance. We saw nothing of it, as we roused at 3 o’clock to pursue our journey. There has never been so much travelling known in this state as at this season, being one third to a half inure than at any previous time. At Auburn we could with difficulty get a bed and when we did, wero forced to sleep double and a warm night it wns. Every Stage, Steam-Boat, and Canal beat that I have been in, has boon crowded. At half past three, A. M. on Tuesday, 16th, wo left Auburn for Ca- nundnigna. Nine miles on. we came to Cayuga Lake, a handsome sheet of water 38 miles long and from 4 j to a wide. There was but little appearance of trade upon it, as we discovered but two or three boats.— We crossed the end of it. on a bridge 1 j miles long. A few miles further on is W». terloo. a thriving village on Seneca River, containing in 1816, one hou-m, now upwards of one hundred and twenty-five, and seven hundred inhabitants, some of the buildings are superior. Twenty-two miles from Au burn, we arrived at the queen of all villa ges—the beautiful one of Geneva, on the Seneca Lake, around ono end of which we had a delightful drive in reaching it. It is built on the side of a hill on tho northward of the like and makes a beautiful appear anco from the opposite side. It contains v,ew about 350 houses and 2000 inhabitants; it has many very handsome buildings, and has jho appearance of doing a great deal of ba- business. The Lake is 45 miles long, and is a beautiful pipce of water. A Canal ia to be. cut from Geneva into the gloat one nbuut 12 miles, which will afford slill grea ter facilities for business.

Canandaigua is a handsome town, containing about 3000 inhabitants and some substantial houses, and in the neigh borhood a number of neat and pleasant country seats. It is at the end of the lake of the same name, ami from it, you have views of various natural scenery.

It was said by a person attached to a pas sage boat, that the actual cause of the rise of toil on the passage boats, was that one of the commissioners for regulating toll, &c. was concerned in a line of freight boqts. Just before reaching Utica, we pass ed the Littlo Falls, where for some distince the canal is cut through the solid rock, and where there are five locks in succession, al together a most stupendous work. There is a side cut to the village of Little Falls, car ried over the river on a superb acqueduct of cut stone. We arrived at Utica, about 11 o'clock at night on the 13th inst. amidst a severe storm of rain, which lasted all night. Utica ia a considerable town and does a vast deal ofbusinesss. There is a constant crowd of Canal boats passing to and fro with freight and passengers, and mqny stages arriving and departing contin ually. On Monday, 15th, at 4 A. M. we started in the stage for Canandaigua—17 miles from Utica, where we breakfasted- ducp feeling which pervaded the communi ty on this interesting occasion. At an early hour, the Corps of Murines, the Volunteer Companies of the Frst Bri gade of the District, and those of the Alex amlrin Brigade, were on the ground desig nated on the Resident’s Square, where they were joined by Gov. Spi igg’s and Cupt. Dunlop’s troops of Cavalry from the Slate of Maryland; the whole formed and in wait ing to take up the escort. The Board of Aldermen and the Common Councils of, the three cities of the District, headed by their respective Mayors, entered the President’s House about half past ole- viri o’clock- The Marshalls of the day had assembled there a short time previous. The farewell addresses of those several Municipal Bodies, having been communica ted to the General by a messenger, about 12 o’clock they were all summoned to tho Hall, and having been arranged in a circle by the Marshals, the President of the Uni ted Staten appeared bofore the entrance which leads to the Drawing Room, suppor ted nn each side by the Heads of Depart ments and Officers, Civil and Military: Bavoral Members of Congress, at present in the District, and other distinguished ci lizima, also, farmed a part of this group— The company, having waited some minutes in silence, a Bide door was opened, and Gen. Lafayette entered the Hall, attended by tho Marshal of the District, and one of the Sons of the President, and presented himself in the vacant space within tho cir cle, and at a suitable distance, to receive, the Address.ofthe President. Mr Adams, then, with much dignity, but with evident achieve our doliVerence. The expression which now beamed from the lace of this ex alted man was of the finest and most touch ing kind. The hero wus lost in the father anil the friend : dignity melted into subdu ed affection, and the friend of Washington seemed to linger with a mnurnfnl delight among lhe sous of his adopted country.— A considerable period wns then occupied in conversing with various individuals, while refreshments were presented lu the company. The moment of departure at length arrived, and, having onec more pressed the hand of Mr. Ailnms, lie enter ed the Buruuche, accompanied by tiie tie cretarics of State, of the Treasury, and of the Navy. The carriage of tho General, preceded hy the Cavalry, the Marine Corps, and Cnpt. Edwards’ Rifle Corps, and followed by tho carringea containing the Corporate authorities of the cities of the District, and numerous military and high civil officers of the Government, moved forward followed by.the remaining Military Companies. In taking up the escort, tile whole column moved through the Court in front of the President’s Mansion, aud paid him the pas sing salute, as lie stood in front to receive it. The whulo sceue—the peals of artil lery, the animating sounds of numerous military bands, the presence of tho vast concourse of people, and the occasion that assembled them, altogether produced e- mulioua not easily described, hut which every Americnn will readily conceive. On reaching th^hnnk of the Polotnnc, near where the Mount Vevnon steam ves sel was in waitin^P ail the carriages iu the procession, except the General’s wheel ed off. and the citizens in them assembled on foot around that of the General. The whole m Hilary body then passed him in review, as he stood in the barouche of the President, attended by the Secretaries of Stale, ofthe Treasury, and ofthe Navy.— After the review, the General proceeded to the steam vessel, under a salute of nrtille ry. surrounded by as many citizent, all ea ger to eatch the last look, as could press on the largo wharf; and, at four o'clock, mis great, and good, nnd extraordinary man. rrod, for the last time, the seil of America, followed by the blessings of every patriotic heart tliut lives on it. As the vessel moved off, and for a short time nller. the deepest silence was observed by the whole of the vast multitude that lined the shore. Tho feeling that pervad ed them Was that, of children bidding n tiua farewell to a venerated parent. The whole remained gn/.ing after' ihc retiring vessel, until she had passed GreonleaHPs Point, where ano'her salnte repealed the valedic tory sounds of respect, nnd these again were not long after echoed by the heavy goes of Fort Washington, ami reminded us ofthe rapidity with which this beneftetor aud friend of our country was burne from it. The General was nreompauied to the Brandywine by the Secretary ofthe Navy, tiifl Mayors of the three cities ofthe Dis trict, the Commsnder-in-Ghiof of tho Ar my, the Generals ofthe Militia of the Dis trict, Com. Bainbridge. Mr. Cnstis, of Ar lington, and several other gentlemen. We to day conclude the publication of the ofii.-inl documents from Georgia. The great length of them must excuse the ab sence of more interesting matter ; we could not, in justice to our country subscribers, most of whom have nn means of access to other papers, exclude them. Tho corres pondence between Gov. Troup and the go vernment of the United States, and its a- gents, has probably closed; and unless a survey ofthe land shall be attempted, here the matter will probably rest until the ses sion of Congress. We feel satisfied that no such attempt will be made. As the President seems determined tu exorcise the 'means, which tho people surely did not put in his hands, to prevent the survey, the Ex ecutive of Georgia call now rctiro from the conLust with honour, The subject of the Treaty, and tho mat ters growing out ofit, will probably make tho ensuing session of Congress more im portant than any antecedent one. Thpn will bo tho time for the Stale* to determine if this is a consolidated or a confederate government. The acts ofthe present and last administrations have had a direct ten dency to increase the powers ofthe general government, and abridge those of tho res pective states ; and should tho Representa tives of the people countenance the petty agents ofthe President in insulting the Ex ecutive of an independent state, it will be another great point gained by the advo cates of consolidation, and in a few short years onr state legislatures will exist scarce ly in idea. Is it because the people so lit tle understand the nature of a ennsolida ted government, that they look on such dangerous measures with so much indiffer ence ? Is it bo reasonable to snppose, that in a government of this (kind, the small and frontier states can derive an equal - Sinned in a given time. 1 Both these improvements can be for a sum less thnn twenty dollars, anil u„. advantages are considered as a nett gain twent. five per cent A draft ofthem can be had of R.

Thu importance of the subji ct | must be our apology for any repetition!, dm may occur. The agreement between thu U.

The fait i;,u | Georgia hue made this bargain, and iliii»»:, like Virginia, give auiay bur western U«J., lias been brniigh into this discussion for Ilia purpose of adding to lhe prejudices of the people against that stele, iior conduct lm I been represented as sordid aud selli-lt. If it were at all pertinent to the subject, Iw conduct in this respect might be easily slioua to be prudent anil wise. The “ gluronsel- [ ample" of Virginia in voluntarily giving a-1 way a mtignilicicnt empire, will, in future f ages, be considered with astoiiisliment mil I incredulity, aa a consummate act of Ml.

Tins! hovo sided in paying tho expense of tun I wars; in building and maintaining a galiull Navy ; in erecting fortifications and defer I ees along the whole of our truntiers, bud I inland and maritime; and in paying del other expenses of the Union.
