name oppinipne, and express the anron feel

The following at* the Preemble and Re
eolctioDi I—
« Wbereea, in the bent and effervescence
of party foeling* and political disquisitions
, the character and standing of two of our
molt worthy and distinguished fellow citi
nena. Utely appointed by the General Go-
Vernmeot to negocitto a treaty with the
Creek nation oflndiana, for the extinguish
tnent of the Indian Titile to Unde within
the limit, of the State of Georgia, have been
improperly aeperaed, and theif Uprightness
nod integrity coiled into qtieatiou! and
whereon, great benefits have resulted to
the good citixena of this slate by the exer
tions of nuf. fellow citiaens aforesaid, in oh-
'taiog for the state of Georgia an extensive,
%tiU and important territory, within the
bait* hereof.
•» Resolved unanimously, therefore, by
the Senate add House of Representatives of
the State of'Georgia, in general aseembly,
met. That they feel deeply and gratefuly
impressed with tbs important service* of the
Honorable Duncan G. Campbell end James
Merriweiher, in obtaining tha late cession
of lands from the Creek nation of Indians i
pnd that their -confidence remain* unim
paired in tha honor, oprightoee* and into
grity of thote gentlemen.
Resolved ftrthptt That the General As-
nembly, repreeenting the feelings and wish
es of the good cititena of this state, do not
hesitate in saying, that they conceive that
the Treaty contains itself intrinsic evidence
ofils own fairness in the liberal and ex
tended provision* which it contains for the
removal, preservation and perpetuity of the
Creekjiation—ench treaty so beneficial to
the United Stataa, the State Of Georgia and
the Indian* tbemselvce, having been nego
elated under circumstances requiring the
moat devoted zeal and persqvering industry
and firmness, we pronounce.upon the con-
^nct of the Commissionere onr most cordial
approbation | aod that a copy thereof he
transmitted to each of said Commissioners,
and also a copy to each of onr Senators
and Repreeeutativea in Congrats.”
On the great subject of Internal Improve
ment,'* disposition exists to meet the wish
es of the people. Rot there is still a diffi.
cutty ■« to the mode. Three modes present
themselvesat present for adoption—to carry
on • general pUn by the state alone—by a
private company—or by the incorporation
of a company, in which by setting aside, t
certain portion of the public funds for nub-
tcription to the stock, should unite the pub
lic: interest with individual enterprise. Of
the first of these, there is little hope—nndtto
tha Inst, yve naturally look for the consum
mation of the great interest, which every
good citizen mast have tt heart*. This is
the object of the Bill introduced-in Senate
’ by Dr. Daniell, which if carried .into effect,
will, I believe, attain the object. A bill
which was before the Legislature et the list

A bill wm'introduced yesterday in Sen

nace company of Bavanah—I cannot offer

The bill to lay off thq' stale iqto at,van
Congressional Diitricta has bean introduced
in the House—the impression is that it will

moat assuredly past.
A bill has alsobqsn Introduced to repeal

relates to Penitentiary eonfioament. Why
tbn humane system which exists in thin
state in common with.so many other nfntea
to whom its adoption has been ,so honora

an unbiassed, individual to discover. The
annual Report hae pot yet been laid before

not unfavorable. If so, I at lead can see
no reason why we should return to the bar

last year in quantity. The quality is spoken
of as being excellent.
