Troup, arid the r officers of the Gener al Government, published in our last—We repeat not their contents—They were pub lished only last week, and are fresh in the recollection of every one. On the 5th of February, he sends a message to Congress, written in a tone, and asserting powers and doctrines at which the whole nation (with the exception of his particular adherents,) stands astounded. - % Yet it now appears that he had privately taken measures to settle the whole affair.- That he had privately taken the only proper course to adjust all differences. We say privately ;—for, although the letter instruct ing the Agent to purchase the land in dis pute, had been written on the 31st January, yet he carefully abstained in his message written subsequently, to wit; on the 5th February, to give to Congress, the slightest intimation of the step that had been taken. We leave the whole matter, for the pre sent, with our readers. They may find, if they can a solution of conduct • so mysteri ous. . We candidly confess that we cannot. But whatever mystery there rnay he in this, there is none in another matter con nected with it—When Mr. .\dams receives the reply, published in our last, to his letter, he will be convinced that he is not yet the Juggernaut of this nation. He will find that whatever be his prctaisions in that way, neither the authorities nor the people of Georgia, are yet disposed to prostrate them selves before him.—There is no mystery a about that—Geo. Journal. An extract from a MillwlgeviUe paper, together with a letter from Mr. Barbour, present the matter at issue between this State and the general Govern ment under a considerably different aspect from that which it last week wore. We think, however, no thing different was to be expected; for the dispo sition of the country could not. for a moment be re lied on to countenance measures which would tend to dis* urb its, harmony and order, based on such un justifiable grounds.—The whole affair is perhaps now more to be deplored as an instance of the pos sibility of angry altercations arising between the two kinds of government, than for any character of mo- Hfpnf it is likely yet to assume. It will be seen by an article ensuing, that Mr. Cal houn has been as fully acquitted as his friends could have desired; and while we extend the information with that satisfaction we ever feel on finding.the characters of t hose in exalted stations id our/*>untry to stand the t<;-st of the sr.yereo'. a*.. „iny, we aie at tho Same tiink driven iijguyeitive reflection on the causes of fMt hiflEwjngs and collisions between men whf^rave stood high in the estimation of the nation,Alb'), on the nature of the offence which has popular decry against them.—In the last 1 since, both Mr. Calhoun and Mr. Clay ,ed important stations, and both have been at dif ferent periods exceedingly popular, particularly the latter in connexion with South American affairs ; and Mr. Adams also has been constantly performing re- -Kflponsible duties under favour of the several execu tives which have successively closed their term sa tisfactorily to the nation. Many others have disap peared for the present, accompanied with more or less animadversion.—However, the annual expose has uniformly represented the country to be in a flourishing condition, which argues that its manage ment has been successfully performed, although gome advantages may possibly have slipped their grasp: on this ground, therefore, it wopld be but fair to conclude that no just complaint could arise ; and if not, it can then only be traced to the clashings of interest or ambition in circumventing'the means to obtain preferment. Here, it is true, much has been disclosed that is highly reprehensible, while it is to be as deeply regretted; for it is a melancholy spectacle to observe a person whose real merits may have raised him high in the consideration of his fel low citizens, and promising to he a safe reliance in future difficulties suddenly destroy all hopes, in moment of intoxication generated by his very popu larity, by unadvisedly aiming at honours which his country was not prepared to concede.—Much of this might be prevented by better defined constitutional provisions, and circumscribing power and patronage, or turning it into more appropriate channels; and we should regard the attentive consideration of it ' worthy the most serious concern of those statesmen who value the tranquillity and uninterrupted pros- ty of their country, which, perhaps, cannot be tively viewed without an intervening cloud Wright, (Mr. Clay’s manager in this affair,) in behalf of the five members of the Com mittee whtv’ate known to be thfe partisans of the Coalition—the other by General Floyd, the Chairman of the Committee, in behalf of himself ara Mr. Campbell, the Republican members-opthe Committee. The difference between tlri reports consists in this: Whilst they both Concur in the acquittal of Mr. Calhoun ftoritthd charge made, that of the majority, nt its'rfecital, endeavors to raise implications upon which the hired scribblers Department of War 31st January, 1827.

This information, and which is from a source of great respectairihty'rrrm substance, that the Indians would sc-11 this remaining portion of their lands within the limits of that State, if they were assured of a prompt and suitable compensation. I therefore enjoin it on you as a duty of great importance, to adopt such mode a= may seem in your discretion to he best, to obtain their consent to relinquish their hold upon these pine-barrons, which can be of no value to them ; and thus secure that state of quiet, which it is so much the desire of the Executive to realize.

A memorial from sundry merchants of Charleston, craving that a Post Road may be established from Charleston to Augusta, by the way of Walferborough, was presen ted in Senate! by Mr. Hayne, on the 12th inst. The object of this memorial, is said, j to be that by establishing the shortest route to Augusta as 3 Post Road, to reduce the price of Postage.^— Georgian. About -$200,000 worth of wool is trans- nor’nd yearly eastward into the interior of Pennsylvania, from Pittsburg, Steubenville, and Wheeling. The roof of the Vegetable Market in Al bany, N.

The Boston Centinel states that instruc- gligence on the part of those officers whose duty it is to sec that the Patrol Law be strictly enforced, es pecially in and near the towns and villages and coun try stores in the county. The Jury therefore, present as a grievance, the neglect of execution of the Patrol Laws; and recom mend to the proper authorities to do their duty and see that our statutes on this subject be particularly attended to in order to prevent evils from arising and growing out of inattention of duty, which are greatly to be deprecated. We present also as a grievance, the bad condition of our public roads j and it is believed that the laws on this sobject are sufficiently explicit and efficient, if they were enforced and executed. We do there fore recommend to the Inferior Court to do their duty, and to fine the Commissioners of the Roads if they neglect theirs, in order that our Roads may be immediately repaired and put into such a con dition as the Law on that subject requires. And although profane swearing and drunkenness are not so prevalent at present among us as formerly, yet the Jury, believing that the abolition of these vices, throughout the State, would greatly conduce to the true honour and moral interest of the com munity, present as a grievance, that there is no effi cient law in this State at present, for the punish ment of these vices in all cases; and do earnestly recommend to our Senator and Representatives in the next Legislature, to exert themselves in order to obtain an amendment of the existing laws on those subjects.

So that after a delay of more than thirty years, these services of our Militia against the In dians in 1793, 4, will probably be paid. A most happy alteration has ceitainly ta ken place at Athens, under the administra tion of President Waddel, both in the church and seminary. Religion has gained the as cendancy, and vice thrown in the back ground. How pleasing to this excellent man of God must the reflection be, now in the evening of his days, that almost the whole of his life has been spent in training up youth in the way they should go; and that, as fruits of his arduous and indefatiga- * has been much canting about the danger of b)e laborg be se es many faithful and able dling or tinkering with institutions and forms ministers of the Gospel, winning souls to the kingdom of Jesus; and, in the councils of the nation, many profound and eloquent defenders of the rights of man. Alabama Herald others have committed to us; but if a position r fundamentally true, it would have been as valid thousand years ago as at this day; but will any ay that liherty and personal security, with the feaippiness consequent thereon, have not been bene fited by the many explosions of previous, and the ' adoption of new forms, which have occurred within that space? So long as the intelligence and powers of man continue in the state of improvement so ef fectually defying foresight as preceding years have disclosed, certainly no forms can be adopted which may be confidently asserted to answer circumstan ces fifty years hence; while a careful adjustment from time to time would avert those convulsions which ensue when institutions become insupporta ble.—Would not a periodical convention at the dis tance of every ten or twenty years, be attended with ‘' sufficient advantages to excite its adoption?

Uast difficulty—this cry cause of icular subject is removed.^ esident is to us be, we sus- orgia.—On the 29th tli January, he dictates the letters to Mr. Clay’s JWix Conspiracy.—After a delay of six weeks, public anxiety has at length been relieved by a report which en tirely adquits Mr. Calhoun of the charges preferred against him. The Committee, yesterday, made two re ports, in both of which the Vice-President is not only fully and unequivocally acquitted from a participation in the profits of the Mix contract, but from the suspicion of such participation. These reports do more. They prove that the Committee has, as we said yesterday, gone into the whole scope of his administration of the War Department; and that the majority, composed of his per sonal enemies and political opponents, were compelled—reluctantly compelled, to acquit him from any participation in any contract whatever. V . This result, though confidently expected, is highly gratifying, in consequence of the delay which has attended the inquiry—a de lay which has been considered inexplicable by the public; and under the effects of which any man, whose charactor ivas less firmly established than Mr. Calhoun’s was, must have sunk. Next to the delay which has attended this inquiry, the fact which will excite the great est surprise in the public mind, is, that the Committee have made two reports—concur ring in the (till acquittal of Mr. Calhoun, but in other respects materially different. One of these reports oras made by Mr. New York from Bremen, had on board up wards of ?7 000 bushels of "rain and pota toes. which, it k ‘’aid, will pay a fair profit in the New York market ! The Governor of NeW York has issued a proclamation offering a reward of 100 dol lars for the anprebeusinn of Reuben Free man, charged with being concerned in the murder of TTenrv Johnson, in the town of Stillwater, Saratoga county.

Miss Stephens, the celebrated vocalist, and Mr. Matthews, the commedian, will sail from England for the United States'du ring the approaching spring or summer. They have both been engaged by the mana gers of the New York theatres. This coun try seems the land of promise to all^profes- sion. FOREIGN. NEW-YORK, Feb. 15.—The ship Bay ard, from Havre, brings us Paris files to the 3d ult. The papers are chiefly occupied with discussions respecting three important laws, just submitted to the Legislature of France, relative to juries, the freedom of the press, and the slave trade. Letters from Malta received in Paris state positively, that the Greek frigate Hellas, from this port reached that harbour on the 29th Nov. and sailed again the 1st Dec. for Napoli. M. Granger, the editor of a periodical called Christian France, was condemned to a fine of1,000 franca, and one month’s im prisonment, for having published an article entitled, “ the daoger of confiding public education to priests.” Thet’ardinal Archbishop of Rouen has or dered a great reform among the ecclesiastics of his diocese, by forbidding them to wear hair powder. The Journal du Commerce thinks some of them will in consequence be liable to colds, &c. The Jesuits do not wear powder. Greece.—The following is an extract of a private letter from Napoli di Romania, da ted October 10, addressed to a merchant in Malta. Its date is not very recent, but its contents are of some interest: “ Yesterday evening there arrived here an English brig of war, expressly sent by Captain Hamilton to our government, with despatches from the English ambasador, M. Stratford Canning, containing the informa tion that his excellency has had further in spections from his government to negoci- ate w ith the Porte on the affairs of Greece, according to the propositions lately made by her government, and which were the abso lute independence of all the countries of Greece that took up arms, or at least the establishment of a Government modelled on that of the Ionian Islands. In this let ter it is also affirmed, that Lord Cochrane wrote from Malta to the admirals, vice ad mirals, and captains, inviting them all to do their utmost with their small ships to retard the progress ofLjbo Turkish fleet, assuring them that he will be shortly among the Greeks, arid concur in frustrating the at- to the business of the present Term.
