At the moment we gut out ul his tilbury, a fiacre enteied the street; the I ilcou eye of the young man enabled him to distinguish a female within the carriage, and then an expression of almost savage joy ani mator! his countenance. He called ab ty viho was pis*ing, and desired him to hold fits horse. VVe mounted the steps ol the ohli miser; since I had Iclt the house he had placed a small square grating in the middle •f the door, and it was not till alter I had| been recognised that wc were admitted. 1 fsund him seated i.i his arm chair motion-: 1 less as a statue, his eyes fixed upon the man-1 tlepiece, where he seemed reading some:, memorandums of accounts. A small lamp,I 1 mice g-een but now obscure with smoke and; 1 dirt, threw a lurid glare upon his pale face/ 1 He turned his eye towards me. but did not j J speak. “Father Gmbeck,” said I, “1 bring you one of my mist intimate friends.” “Whom I mistrust as much as the devil * himself” whispered the old man. “On my f account you will render him yuur good ol- * lice at the ordinary price, and you will ex- ' tricate him from a pressing difficulty.” Hie ■ vicomte bowed in confirmation, sealed him- ' self, aid p-epared to hear his answer with one ol those courtly attitude* of which i' is * impossible to describe Hie graceful baseness. Father Gusbeck remained in his chair at the 1 corner of ihe fire unmoved and immoveable. 1 lie resembled he statue ol Voltaire, as i. ' appears at night on entering the vestibule -d the Theatre Francois. He raised slightly, 1 as byway of sa ulation, the worn ou' gray casket with which lie covered his head, and the small portion of yellow skull it exhibit ed completed his resemblance to the matble. *‘l have no money, except for my custom eis,” said the usurer. “You are vex -d then that I have been to ruin myself with otbeis besides y lurself,” said the young man, «miling. “Ruin you !” replied Fere Oos beck, with u tone of irony. “You would say that one cannot ruin a man wiio has no capi tal !” “But 1 defy you to find a man more capital titan I am,” cried the vicomte, rising and turning upon his heel. This half scri- 1 ous buffoonary had no effet upon Gosbcck. c ‘Cao I. with any decency,” said he, “lend w sous to a man who already owes thirty thousind francs and docs not possess a dc■ I flier Besides, you lost ton thousand francs 1 the night before last, at M. Lift te’s ball.” Sir.rep'ied the young man wi h exquisite impudence, and a; p> inching as be said it, ■“my ulVaiis do not concern you. He wh "has time owes nothing for the present.” “True,” “My bills will be taken up.” Fos iibiy ” “A.nl at tis moment Ihe business between Ua is imply t» know if I odor you sutfi lent secuiiiy f«r (he sum thai I am a bout to borrow.” “Just so,” The nois--of i a feicre slopping at the gUe was heard fromj without. “1 go for a mething ihat wi ' l per haps satisfy you,” cried the young m-n. He soon afterwards returned, leading by the hand a young lady, who appeared Co bi twenty five or twenty six years old. Sb was ol remaikuble beauty, and I had no dif ficulty in recog ii-iog she countess of whom Gosbeck had f iiniei ly spoken tome. O entering the damp and somb e c amber ol the usurer she cast a look of suspicion upon the vicomte. Toe terrible anguish ol her heart was evident, and her proud and noble features had an almost convu.sive expres sion. I could easily believe my comp nion had now become the evil genius of her des tiny. They seemed bith standing before their judge, who, with a cold and severe look examined them as an old Dominican «f the sixteenth century may have watched the tortures of two Moors in the -dun | geons of the holy Inquisition. “Sir,” said! •he, with a trembling voice, “are there! sny means of obtaining (he price of these diamonds, (presenting a casket) re serving to inysell the right to repurchase! them,” As I vulimteeied to cxpl.iu to her h »w this might be done, she seemed to breathe inure freely ; but the vicomte knii his brow, aware that; with such a condition, the usurer would advance a less sum upon them. Gusbeck was absorbed : he had seized his magnifying glass, and was exam-' ining the jewels in silence.

Frout tUe Savannah Georgian. Although the compact of 1802, betweer the U mod States aud Georgia, is to b> found in Prince and other Digests of ou laws, yet, believeing that i. would not bi unaccep'able to many of our readeis, wt have this day devoted a portion of our co luinns to its publication. While referring to this subject, we avail ourselves of the op p -rtunity to notice a s ateraent made by the Cluel Justice in Ins most unfu*tunate argu meat in the case of Worcester against Geor •u. It will be recollected that the ques lion before the C urt was—had Georgia a j right to extend her ciimiual laws over the j Cherokee country within her limits, and u punish a white man, a citizen of the United States, for the violation of her laws within the Indian territory? The Chief Justice says, that “ Various ac s of the Legislature |of Georgia, including the contract of ses jsion of 1802, all tend to prove her acquies cence in the universal conviction dim theii (the 1 dun) territory was separated from hat of any Stale within whose chartered limits they might reside, by a boundary line established by treaties ; (hit within their boundary they possess**! rights with which no Stile could interfere ; and that the whole power of regulating intercourse with .them was ves ed in the United States. A review of these acts on the part of Georgia lis ihe less necessary because they havt {hewt accurately detailed iu 'he argument ,at the bar. Her new seriis of laws, nani ifes'ing her abandonment of these opinions (apneais to have commenced in December 1828.’’ So much for the Chief Justice jN w how stands the fact ? On the 23J o November, 1814, the Legislature pissed at act, to add all that part of 'he uulocatet territory of the State, which ies without lh« limits of 'he present counties to the comity o Jasper, for the put pose ut giving the courti jurisdiction of crimes committed by whilt persons in said territory aod for o.her pur puses. See Lamar’s Digest, page 218— which act recites, “ tnai ciimes have bter commuted within th;j r part of the unloos ed territory, which is for the present as signed o the Indians ior their hunting gr uuds, and as me of the primary objecti h government is, that the parties composing * * shall bo protected in their "ijiursons and property j and as our judiciory’iji deprived ol doing et her the one or the other, from want of j ui-nidi in, which jurisdiction can only be giv n, agreeably to our Congtitu ion, by adding the same :o one of tlie coun ies of this State, Be it enacted, Tbe in act then adds “ all the Indian lands with in in the chartered limits of the State to the sv county m Ja»per.” m Agdri—on the 18>.h Dec. 1819, 1 lie Le tt' gis'.a ure passed another act (see Lamat’s n l)ig“st, p.igo 218) to amend the above, by n- he Id li secii-n of which act, the coun ry i at present occupied by the Uhcrokees is c- “ added lo and made a part of the county lof Franklin and by the lllh section it is (I provided, that all offences committed with l- in ilie unlocated teniloiy aforesaid, against the Stale, or all crimes committed by per :e sons, citizms ol this S'ate, or of the Uni i‘. ted States, or against the State or any of its i- citizens as afotesaid, or within either of the tg counties aforesaid, or in the territory thus tejadded to eitheii of said counties, shall be y tried and punished in the county to which e. said territory is added and made a part, any i• law to the contrary notwithstanding.” Here it then are acts shewing that Georgia exercis >l ed the same power ol extending her crimin d al jurisdiction over the Indian territory in e 1814 aud 1816 which she lias dune in 1828 i- aud subsequently, aod which she now does ; '• and yet the Chief Justice says that she ac it quiesced in a contrary course until 1828, e when ** she appears to have commenced her e new series of laws ” These acts would isjscarcely have escaped notice in " a diligent n search,” and yet they must have passed ; without notice “In me accurate details in e the argument at me rntr.'* We are indu lged to b-lieve, and we do so in charity, that e j the Chief Justice, throughout, the whole d case, has relied, too much for his own repu ■ [latino upon the *' Mcciyate details in the ar o gumenl ut the /Jajr. ,, iAs much reliance I has been placed uptm tire fact that Georgia k did for so long a tiu&e acViiesce in the Che ‘.[rokces being an iaii|pe(AUat nation, and ■{that (he whole power of*gulatiog inter y course with them was vested in the United e jStates, these acts serve to shew that no such f acquiescence existed. We never heard at " the lime of the passage of these acts, nor J,have wa since beard, until lately, that the ■{power of Georgia to extend her criminal °{iaw* over the Indian territory, as she did e by these acts of 1814 and 1816, was object -0 ed to either by the Indians themselves or tby the United States. If the acquiescence 1 of Georgia from 18U2 to 1814 is evidence 11 that she had no right thus to extend her ju -1 risdiclion, then the acquiescence of the In • dtans and of the United States from 1814 b, to 1829 in such extension of her jurisdic -1 (ion, would be evidence that they admitted • her right. 1' is a bid rule that will not r work both ways. The truth is, (hat in h 1314 and 1816 there was no Gen. Jackson u or J ickson party to be driven out of power. lA*o interest to be furthered by crushing Georgia, then bravely battling in the com y mini cause. Indian rights and Georgia en ' cioachments were so little heeded, that these laws passed unnoticed at the time e r ven by the sickly philanthropy of W irt, l * Scigeaut, Fanatics, Intermeddlers & Co. ir mtttm !r A brother Editor for whom we cherish the best feelings of regard, asks, why we are so silent on the great claims of the im prisoned Missionar’es— why we do not lift n up our voice in behalf of the oppressed and lr suffering? We might answer him with 1 bat silence which prudence seemed to have maiked out as our proper course, but as e here is a point, where forbearance may no ‘ longer be regarded a virtue, we deem it an P act of sheer justice to some of the most ’ worthy citizens of our country to state, that ' f - the great excitement which has been pro duced chiefly through the agency of religi ous papers on a subject involving political s interests, the efforts (o create and promote local and section'd prejudices under a go e vernmeat the must excellent, and in a coun try where all should be united iu the bounds d of citizenship, is in our humble opinion, an '* abuse of the liberty of the Press, which e cannot be sustained by the precepts of e Christianity. As a member of the Church J* of Gud, we have nothing to do with politi cal feuds, or with those subjects which in- I volve the mazes and intricacies of national 1 ‘ or state jurisdiction ; but as a citizen and “ a ciliz n of the South, we have the indefea e sible right to say, that we believe Georgia r has all the authority for extending her ju risdiction over the Cherokee Indians, which r New York, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and ‘' other States assumed over the Tribes with- in their chartered limi's. We do not pro a fess to be so sapient as to question, or to e establish the rights of either, but if those “istates, aud par'icularly New-York, could ‘‘ proscribe the Indian tribes to a pitiful por- B*.lion 8 *. lion of her soil, we cannot perceive the pro priety or equity ol the aspersions which e j, have been thrown upon us. We have the ’* right also to say, that the blood of our fel ” low citizens and the stripes inflicted on them at the inhuman and mock tribunals of ‘® the Cherokees, have as strong claims up m sympathy as the sufferings of the sava t« ?e g—the law which has been denounced as ■ e brutal in the extreme, was designed to cuuu r ; teract those evils, and if Christians and “ Christian Ministers were disposed to give a n preference to the savage code and to exert '■ their influence in direct hostility to the in ‘ terests of the savage, the interest of the Sjstate and the wishes of the Chief Magis »llrate, we believe they have as much right to g glory in their •• oppression of suffering, ” as the obstinate and rebellious child has to glory in the punishment of his crimes. We II plead not for the chains aud fetters of the! 11 guard, but waiving all claims which Geor-i '■ gii may or may not have to the right of ju-| l_ risdictipn, we maintain, that had St. Paul e indulged such conscientious scruples as - those profiled by the *' imprisoned Mil e sionanes,” the glad tiding of th* Gosper would have been confined to a narrow cora - pass.—Had Cuke, Judson, Shaw and other* s evinced the same, fastidiousness, he voice y of the herald had never been heard in ths y deserts of Caftraria, under the palm tree* s of Ceylon, among the Pagodas of India, y the Mosques of Persia, or the barbarous s tribes of our own country. In conclusion we would advise our Bro t ther Editor to bo sparing with his tears, and - especially of his words. If he will not b«- - lieve that there are at least a lew choice s spirits in the South who are not impervious > to the calls of human-sufferings, time may 5 yet convince him of the fact.—He has not • heard or known all that he may yet hear i and know in relation to the Missionaries, i and the course of one who fled from the j sight of his prison house, and since, from the - path of his Fathers, is enough to convince • him. that it is possible lor us to misplace our i confidence.—Should the scene close in blood > or something worse, let it not be said that ; the Methodist have taken any patt in the tragedy. As a people, we have nothing to , Jo with coalitions, political or ecclesiastical. This is the motto which our fathers be i queathed us, and when we shall refuse to t transmit it to our Children, may we cease i to exist as a people. i [Georgia Christian Repertory. ■a From the Savannah Georgian. liatei from France.
