An Inquest was held on the 18th inst. on the body of a Black Man, who called himself Will Jiu kson, and while in this city passed for a free man.

A resolution will lie introduced to uuthorizc the subscription to the Stock of the Company, of 250,000 dollars, on the part of tho State, and n danse would he proposed in the appropriation bill to that died. It is Relieved, however, that the rejection of the application iii Senate, is decisive of its fate, ami tho correspondent uftfio Courier says, the only alternative is application to the General Government. A resolution passed both branches of the Legislature ot South Carolina, on the loth in.t., to adjourn on the ISth. The Synod of South Carolina and Georgia, at its late K'.o>i*.n in Savannah, determined on tho establishment of a Theological Seminary for the South. It is to bo located at Columbia, S. C. and Doctors Waddel and C adding are already chosen two of the I’rofesiors. It is stated ill tho Washington Telegraph, that des patches have been received from Mr. Moore, our Minis ter to Colmhin j they mention .that his reception wus highly gratifying. It also stated that he bus entered up- on his ofticiul duties, and has succeeded iu procuring the admission of the justice and vulidity of most ofthc claims of our citizens upon the Colombian government. Their final settlement only awaits the usual official furmtditii s. The despatches contain intelligence of the treaty be tween Colonib a and Peru. Gen. Harrison, our Into Minister at Colombia, and Mr. Taylor, Secretary of Legation, arrived ot Cardin- gena on the 10th November, expecting to find the Natch- •>*, which, however, had not yet arrived; and intending, unless that alt ip should shortly appear, to take passage j« the first vessel ill which they could be accommodated. A letter from J. G. A. Williamson, our Consul nt T.iguira, received in this country, dated on tho 15th No. veinher, says—** I utn expecting every moment to hear from Valencia, that Gen. Pacx has declared Venezue la, separate,,free, and independent of il,r rrnt rtf Colombia. Nows from Valencia today, says, that an order bus ar rived there to prevent any of the member* of Congress from going to Bogota-it is believed,” It appears from this, and our previous intelligence, that the unhappy republics of Smith America, are still destined to experience the evils of anarchy and civil war.

Hank Stock, in consequence of the receipt of tho President's Message, was about six per cent, winch upon thirty-five million (tho capital of the Bank) is 2,100,000. Tho Now-York Herald is of opinion that the fall is only temporary. Tho recommendation of the President concerning the merging the Marina Corps into tho Artillery or Infan try, it is said, will be generally acceptable to tho Navy, and will perhaps early engagq tho attention and delibe rations of Congress. A trial took plaCo at Zanesville, Ohio, on the 20th ultimo, between certain members of the Methodist E- piscopal Church and tho Methodist Reformers. Tho contest was about tho right of using a church iu Spring- field township, in that county, which was formerly oc cupied hy the old Methodist S wfioty. Tho reformers claimed the right of using and did use it, when tlio ac tion of trespass was brought against thorn. After much debate the jury retired, and romuinnd out all night, when they brought in a verdict for the plaintitTs (the old society), damages one cent. This decision would debar tho reformer* from tlio right uf using tlio old churches. COMMUNICATED FOB THE GEORGIAN, •THE CHEROKEES.

That stop cannot bo retraced—a Slate cannot bo dismombered by Congress or restricted in tho exercise of its Constitutional power.” Therefore as a Slate cannot bo dismembered, she has a right to take our lands and tyrannize over us that never a formed nny part ofher members.

If (lie adds) tho General Government is not permitted to tolerate tho erection of a confederate State within the territory of ono of tlio members of this Union, against her consent, much less could it allow a foreign ind independent government to establish itself tliero.” This tho writer abovo calls ** suggesting a lurking articte in tlio Constitution.” If the Uonoral Government possess no power to place tlio Indians on lands of tho Union, who does ?—No in dividual State—Not th! Indians themselves. The land in question' was bought by the General Government, with tho funds of tho nation, and it would be singular if they could not dispose of it in thik way Theirs is tho control of it and theirs nlono. No intention ever existed to cede ‘soil and sovereignly’ to tho Indians when remov ed. They aro not to ho independent, but to occupy tho lands under tho special protection and guardianship of iho United States. Tito writer alludes to the right of Georgia as being derived from a royal charter in terms which indicate a reproach—the rights of all tho States aro foun ded upon similar documents, and the old States at least are recognized and guaranteed in their territory, with- out reference to the " poor Indians," by a royal treaty— so that there is nothing very singular or vurydograd- ing in tlio admission of that fact. Tlio choice of removal or submission to our laws may, in the opinions of some, for aught wo know, bo consci- cntiously considered one of " shivery or death.” Yet wo much doubt if tliero are many living under our laws, who would not prefer thoir operation to those by which they are oxposed to l< so thoir lives or their oars, to bo knocked in the head with a stone, or suffor under the infliction of tlio hickory stick, hy order of an Indian Council, bocause they may desire to disposa of their property, and remove to another and better country.
