SO] ICf Tho Georgian has been delivered at a later hour limn usual for a few days past, in consequence of tha indisposition of one of *>«r hands, whoso place we have not been enabled to supply. We trust it will be in our power to resume our usual regularity in the course of a da v or two. Uur Correspondent in Campbell County lias furnished us with the followib^'returns of tho election in dial (/dirsnur—Gilmer, 408} Crawford, -t. Congress—I.amar, 171 ; Chariton, 52. Hint? I*”ixlulurc—Black, Hatney. IV u take this npporiunityhn return our sincere thanks to our numerous friends iutliu interior, to whom wo have been indebted for information of the 'past election, by which wo have loon enabled to give our readers the very earliest information. Tho Georgia Courier says that the Steamboat Vir ginia, built at Cincinnatti about three years ago, and formerly plying to Nqw Orleans, has lately brought a load of iimndianilisu from Appalnthicoln Hay up the Mint River to lUinbridgc. The Virginia is of tho lurj cst class of boats, uni tho Flint is said to be within six inches of being as low as it has ever been noticed.— Dainbridge is tho capital of Decatur County, lies about 41 miles N. YV. of Tallahassee, and e mtains jdtoul 8 or 10 houses. If we do not very much mistake, it ocou- cupies the situ laid in the maps as Fort Scott. The Georgia Judicial .System.—The Cotintvof Greene 1ms added its testimony to that of others in favor of the establishment ofa Court for tKc correction of lui Tors, llic Grand Jury, in the expression of an unani mous opinion upon that head, observe in substance, that so long as tho law shall continue) to ho administered by eight or more independent judicatories and their do. cisionswant uniformily throughout the several Circuits, the lives, liberty and property of the' citizen must con tinue to bo jeoparded. They do not discuss the moot points, so often controverted both in tho General Assem bly and without doors,—whether such a tribunal should bo composed ofthoso Judges beforo whom ttio causes were originally tried, or of others,—by what tenure their offices should be held—the amount of salary, and such like matters, regarding its organization ; but they re commend that its sessions bo held twico a year, and that they should bo made to continue until every case on t docket bo decided :—also, that its investigations be con fined alotio to qtiestions'piirely legal, which may be ,up for final adjudication from tho Circuit Courts, ami that these shall he so conducted ns to dispense with the uttendanco ofboth the parlies and tho witnesses; and lastly, that its decisions thus made, shall be deemed part ami parcel of the law of this State. The tribunal proposed by the Grand Jury of Greene, resembles very much tho project of ono sybmiited some years ago, by Governor Troup, but which did not pass. H was not acceptable to must of tho gentlemen of the liar, at tho liiuo ; yet, knowing tho prejudices of the people upon tho subjoctofa Court of Errors, as connect ed with an apprehension, that it would occasion not only an increase of expense, but a delay of justice, and there fore a denial of it, wo believe that they wero generally of opinion that tho plan submitted by Gov. T. would do very well as an entering wedge. They recollected also, that with a judiciary constituted like tho one we have in Georgia, “Tho laws of power chained to men’s humors lie, The good have conscience; thu ill (like instruments) Are, in the hands of wiso authority, Moved, divided, used, or laid down.” Indian Sut*»;n»rtrms*.—Thu Alabama Intelligen cer publishes tho copy of a law roro itly enacted by thu proper authorities of the two districts of the Choctaw Nation of Indians, upon the subjects of witches and wi zards, which is a curiosity, und shows strongly that not withstanding all the efforts made at civilization the “In dians are Indians still.” Tim more ignorant paitofthu Indians (we quote tho Intelligencer) believe in the exist ence of a mysterious wild man of the woods, who can confer supernatural powers. The person assuming such powers is said to deposito his entrails upon a bush or bough of a tree, and U then enabled tu do all uiauiier of mischief unseen until he resumes his entrails. Thu doc tors have been in the habit of pronouncing any one, they were called to see, bewitched by some particular Indian. This was a sufficient warrant lor the friends of the pa tient without further ceremony to attack and kill with im punity the person pronounced by tho doctor to be a witch. In Ibis way many innocent persons have fallen victims to this popular superstition. The enlightened Chiefs ami head men are incredulous upon thu subject; but have found tho popular faith too strong mid deep rooted to bo mot and overthrown by a direct attack; nudhuvo tlirre- foro enacted a law which, white it countenances the su perstition of the ignorant, renders it harmless ; for if the forms of the law bj observed it is impossible that an other victim should fall. Co uni ii, House, Sept. IP, 1828. Whereas it has been an old custom of ihu Choctaws to puuudi imrsons said to he wizznrds or witches with death, without giving them n fair trial by any disinterest- rd persons; and many have fallen victims under thu in fluence of this habit. Wo do hereby resolve, in general council of the North East and Southern Districts, that in futiiro all persons, who shall be accused of being a wizzanl or witch, shall bo tried before the Chiefs and committees, or by uuy four C Wains; und ifthoy bo found guilty, they shall bo pun ished at the discretion of the court. ’ He it further resolved thul if any person or persons shall find at any place thu entrails of a wizznrd nr wilch, the said entrails going from or returning to tho body, the «thl body shall he put to duulli at tho place where it mny be discovered,and the said body ahull lie cut open by a pro per person, and an examination ho made to sen whether it has in it any entrails, und u report bo made of Haul hotly. Ami it is hereby further resolved that no Doctor shall have the power to pass sentence of Death upon any per son or persons that may he accused of hing a wizzanl or witch ; and any Doctor no offending shall sutler thu penally of death. In tins (rflftly of 6th July, 1827, said to bo accepted by the Sultan, is tlm following clause ♦'Art. V. The contracting powers will not scok’in tlicso arrongemonts any augmentation of territory, any exclusive influence, any commercial advantage for their subjects, which tho subjects of any other nation may not equally obtain.” This is Mr. Canning’s celebrated treaty by which tho three powers wero united in obtaining tho recognition of thu independence of Greece, and tho ratification of which was followed by tho battlo of Navarlna. Tho accept ance of tho conditions of that treaty, by Turkey, if truo, can have no binding power over Nicholas, in thu presont war between him and tho Sublime Pnrtn. The loner was undertaken by Nicholas on his own account, for tho attainment of objects independent entirely of tho treaty ofGth July, llo is therefore,not accountable to tho parties to that treaty,except as he is to tho other powers, whoso interests limy bo alluded by tho unduo aggrandize, mciit of ono. The unexpected apathy exhibited by tho British government,which in days past, was first in every man’s quarrel, is only to be accounted for by tho exist ence of a perfect confidence in tho professions of Nicho las, or perhaps by the existence of a secret treaty—but there aro weak securities where ambition and national aggrandizement aro opposed to their fulfilment. Russia will not be permitted by (lie powers of Europe to hold Constantinople if they call prevent it—in tho hands of the Sultan there can be no cause for jealousy, and with a guarantee for the free passage of the Dardanelles to all nations, thu invasion of Russia will havo been a benefit to tlm world. Hy the proceedings of the Virginia Convention thus tar, it appears that tythe Cnumiitiun U»«» E«*«uiivo 11 ranch of tho Constitution motions to elect tho Gover nor by the people and by tho Legislature were negativ ’d. Tho resolutions as reported are silent as to the mode of election. The committees are rapidly winding up their business, and thu Report of that on tho Judicial Department was made the order of the day for Monday Inst. (iKXKHAf. IWrOt'Kict: Dkkautment.—It insta ted in the Washington Telegraph, that the receipts of the Post Cilice Department for tho quarter ending the 1st of July, exceeded thoso of tho corresponding quarter of thu previous year over $25,000. The papers on tho side of Mr. Wolf, of Pennsylvania as a candidate for tho office of Governor,‘acknowledge that thu anti-masonic opposition to him has been much more fimnidablc than was expected, but it is bcliuved that ho lias been elected notwithstanding, by a major- ty of at least thirty thousand votes. tK® ej.i.tnnim tvliirh him jirovniloJ ut New Orleans the present summer, on the 10th inst., had nearly sub sided, owing to a want of uimecliuinted subjects for its visitation. The weather was warm for tho sea son of thu year, and strangers and others wero ad vised not to return till a frost, Business continued at a Stand. A London Mugaziuu us old as 1804 contains tho fol lowing information—**A goldmine was discovered in North Carolina in July lust, ami the amount already obtained is estimated at between 12,000 and 15,000 dollars.” • jTIto good people of PortlumJ iiriidililHiratiilg sorioigi- |y on changing their town to u city.

Wo arc informed that the Cane planted last season has come up very well, but the long dry weather has injured its growth. Augusta Courier. A Pnnsnvunixo Ronnuu.—Tho Columbi an Reporter gives an account of a series of robberies perprotnted at Taunton (Mass.) by a colored man of the name of John W. Bowers. On Wednesday night Inst, two houses worn forcibly entered and property ta ken. In the first, the robber was satisfied •ii.li a drain of Jamaica for bis present ttecos- ity • and a few bottles of Madeira, two or, three dollars in money, and some oilier light articles for his future ttso. He made his ex it without being heard by tho family and pro ceeded to the next house, which having en tered, he furnished himself with u light, and troceodod to gather up several articles of. tuuschold list;, llo was heard, and made his escape amidst (he alarm of the family, carry ing with him property to a considerable amount. Oil Thursday night lie broke into the bar room of a Tavern, where ho procured smite refreshment, made necessary no doubt bv bis exposure to the cold night air! Oil Friday night lie succeeded in breaking into another house, but took nothing of very great value. Oil Saturday night, he forced still (mother house, but bad scarcely done more than to help himself to u cold luncheon beforo u lady whose husband was taken ill, canto suddenly upon him with a light. Not liking the unceremonious intrusion, he decamped very precipitately, with u small amount of spoil. Oil Sttnilat/, tho labours of the week having been closed, the depredator was ar rested, confessed bis guilt, and is now in jail uwuiting his trial. A Parisian correspondent of tho London Mor .4'g Journal, a paper violently opposed to the IJitko of Wellington’s administration, writes as follows, under date of Sept. JJ:— ” War hi the East.—Wherever I go, and whoever 1 see, the question that is uniformly put is, “ What is England about!

The girls and boys were dress’d so fins And the soldiers all urrangud inline. It was a proud day to Barney ; who vas ill his fancy suit. A broad britn hat with tie Ti ger’s .tail, that killed his last bull-dog, u^d was slain in tho act by Barneys fatal rifle,waving above tho crown, adorned his head Tho dark drown hunting shirt, trimmed wth wido black fringe, his ntcmorablo old sprtdroon, suspended over his shoulder, hung dangling by his side; while u pair of snow white homespun imiuuloons, fitting tight, and neatly beaded moccqsins, completed his uttire.

Wlioolino Polly suddenly, Ito dnsltcd to tho front of the lino, and taking oft* his hat, wtvod it in tho air, nttd bowing almost to tho pommel of his saddle, “ Brother Soggew, said he, l thank you a thousand times for the powerful scloot fou gain me—’twns a roarer, I reckon it’s team all through thu settlement an malic clean over the Kounty.” llebowld: and as he rode off, Lieut.

Tlui Pr«ooiwiitn was now formed, villi the orator in the front, betwixt Mist er Stillwater and Sqttiro Dodd, followed by all the ladies: the old men and children closing the rqir.— The Lieutenant at tho top of Itis hcltldic voice, shouted “ fornrds march, ono nil all on you to the woration ground;” and tlijhea vy column was soon involved in thiclning clouds of dust: its it moved slowly on,there wore opportunities for gallantries in thonnull way; and our orator was detected nioratlmn once stealing a sly glance, over his loft aoitl- dur, which the spruce widow Spindle, tern- tled whether they were in seurch ofMis4Pul- y Smirky or herself: but all doubts were-toon removed by a smile and nod from the ohitor to Miss Polly, who was among tho forehost, bedecked in a now sky blue silk bonnet and black plumes, which inflicted a sick-hcidtich on Widow Spindle, tho moment her eyes caught them. She wore a neat riding dross of the same, trimmed with black bobbin, and a pair of bootees, made of spotted fawn skin, laced tight around her neatly turned ancles, with black bobbin, and large‘tassels ; around her substantial waist was girded a broad white band, with divers couchant beasts, cooing birds and blooming flowers, in Hunt ing bowers, or what was all the same, things in imitation of them ; the whole spun, woven and nmdo with her own brunet hands, ller wnlk lmd beautifully blended tho amber with the orange of her ruddy cheeks, and her large black eyes sparkled but to conqueror to kill; whilst her tail, symmetrical figure rendered very questionable, which of thy two would please Iter fancy most. The procession having arrived at the place of celebration, Mr. Stillwater, ottr orator, the Squire, occupied the stage, and the citizens the logs. Mr. Stillwater now arose with a countenance that shadowed forth the true dig nity of our pious clergy,free of puritan gloom, aim delivered an impressive prayer, at which every knee was bent. Squire Dodd then read the Declaration of Inrinpomlonr,. in his most vehement manner, when Cunt.

Burney had his oddities too, and if ho wore hunting shirt and thoektisins, it was his freak and not his poverty, or the “ fashions of thu day” that supplied his wardrobe, for lie had a little cash iu his pocket, and some prime negroes in his field,who loved him with a sort of superstitious veneration ; in truth, he was considered by bis neighbours an in dependent, snug up-country farmer, of a nat urally strong mmd, and great bodily power, without the polish of instruction or travel; but on this occasion be gave some ofhis inti mates to understand, that he had endeavored to inform himself, and would drop a little of his colonial phraseology, us moro persons were present than his neighbours. Casting a rapid jglunco over the crowd, stretching bis manly figure to its full height, und hitching up Ids pantaloons, for ho never wore a suspender, and seldom went to town, with the fumilinrity ‘of an old acquaintance, with a hollow, tremulous voice, he thus ad dressed them : “ My friends and brother sol diers : Yott ltavo come Itere to-day front all parts of the settlement and kounty, at a migh ty short notice, to hoar what your old friend has to say on a subject which this day em ploys the most distinguished talents, from the frozen boundaries of tho north to the mild limit of the south ; from the foaming beach of tho Atlantic to the calm shores of tho Pacific ; iu describing the acts and ex plaining thu benefits ofa day tho most mem orable in our history ; the most glorious that huh in yonder skies ever helped to illuminate with its brightest ray.
