said to have his day, Messrs. Varm and
Ridge, have had theirs, and since the cor
rupt agreement to embezzle the money of
the Creeks, these immaculate gentlemen wili
hardly have credit with the public, either foi
a love of justice or of the children of the
forest. For the purpose of placing these
disinterested individuals in a proper light be
fore the public, we publish their canting hy
pocritical letter, only requesting our readers
to bear in mind that they intended to take
from “ their poor ignorant unlettered and
friendless” countrymen, a great part of the
funds appropriated by the new—what shall
we call it ?—Not Treaty—Bargain for the
payment of Creek Lands
Mr, EDITOR :
. , You will much oblige th« Creek Delegation
by giving the enclosed correspondence a place in your paper.
We are not often heard ; nor arc our principles and feelings
known. We are out of sight of the people of the United States
—and our enemies have tried to wrap clouds around us. We
will always listen to friendly councils. We have confidence in
eur taiher the President, and listen to his words. We do not
want to wrong any people. We wish to live in peace, and as far
as possible, respect the rights of all men. Our poor ignorant
countrymen, who have not the lights which guide the white man,
sometimes do wrong. Can they not be forgiven ? It is hard to be
poor, and unlettered, and friendless, and to live neighbors to peo
i pie who care so little to exorcise brotherly kindness ; but we hope
that we have friends even in Georgia ; and it is wished that we
may be treated like human beings, at least. We take ne excep
tion to the remonstrance of the people in Early county : we are
glad it was sent, it will afford us pleasure to provide, in this, and
in all other matters of difference, all the remedy that wc can.

1 FROM THE GEORGIA JOURNAL.
We are truly gratified that we have it in
f our power to publish the following ducu
j .nents. They furnish evidence that the U.
States government, is now disposed to do
1 what is right. We look upon this as the j
e commencement of the era of better feelings i
e than have heretofore existed between the
. State and General Governments. We know
there is no disposition on the part of the au
thorities cf this State to push matters to
s extremity, if it can be avoided. All Geor
e gia has ever asked, is that justice should be
] irendered unto her. A disposition to do this
e jbeing now manifested on the part of the
I United States, we believe, should that dis
position continue, that all difficulties may be
8 . satisfactorily adjusted.

*|l think it due to you, from a previous cor
nirespondence had with the Delegation of

£ self, as also from the equal interest which
* Georgia has in the measure, to furnish you

e Department of War, 4th June, 1826.
Sir ;—I have the honor to .teknow ledge
f the receipt (on yesterday) of your commu
nication, dated the 10th March, covering
the resolution of the Legislature of Alaba
r ma, authorising you to appoint Commission
' ers to ascertain the Boundary line between
. Alabama and Georgia,
u In reply, it gives me pleasure to comnm
nicate to you, that the President is gratifi
ed that a measure so desirable to two 1
y States, as that of fixing their Boundary, ,
* may be carried into effect with the objec- (
tion or difficulty, at least on the part of the i
. U.*States. No provision, however, having
been made by Congress for the appoint
ment of a Commissioner, or any money
appropriated to meet the expenses of such
- an appointment, the President does not
feel himself authorised to make the ap- (
pointment—and he would fain hope that
this subject may be equitably and satisfac
torially adjudged by the two States without ■
' the interposition of the government of the
U. States,
Should, however, the difficulties to which j
j you refer, as probably', really occur, and
continue insurmountable, on their being
communicated to this Department, the
President would feel himself bound tore
e fer the subject to Congress, who would
- decide whether it was a case requiring
their interference. I
I am, most respectfully, your ob’t scr’vt. ,

Milledgeville, \7th June, 1826. y
J 5 Sir: —l had the honor to receive your
r communication of the 4th inst. accompa
i, nied by a letter addressed to the Govern
n or of Alabama, in which the President has
: been pleased to express his gratification
“ that a measure so desirable to two State s
'■ as that of fixing the Boundary, may be car
* t ied into effect without objection or difficul
-0 ty, at least on the part of the United States.”
d It is not apprehended that any serious '
difficulty will occur between the two States,
and the expression of this sentiment by the
President, so favorable to the removal of 1
v one embarrassment, will prove as it is ho- ,
ped, the precursor of the removal of all, in
the unhappy differences which have occur
red between the General Government and
. this, on other subjects connected with it.—
’ Accept my thanks for the politeness which
dictated your communication, and with
them the assurance of mV respectful consi
deration.

In the last letter published in the New

•f “By a settled regulation, it is neccessary
■ for a passport to be handed to a French
!• Minister, the day before it receives his sig
nature—a circumstance of which we weie
* not apprised, till our places in the coach had
'■> been taken. A note from Mr. King prompt
- ly procured a dispensation of the custom in
- our favor, and obtained the signature of the
t ambassador the same evening. We had
t paid our respects to the American Minister,
soon after our arrival in London, and regret
ted to find him laboring under so severe an
d indisposition, lie is much emaciated, and
e extremely feeble. Continual sickness du
'• ring the voyage, gave a shock to his consti
* tution, from which he has not yet recovered.
■ IHe is, however convalescent, and able to
K converse with cheerfulness, though not to go
-|out. His residence is at Portland Place,
one of the most healthy and pleasant parts
of London. In an interview of an hour, he
a was so kind as to impart to me, a c<>m
v prehensile view of the present political siate
