'Under date of the 15th ultimo, I apprized you of the iMsgocintions going on and of tho expectations of many in relation thereto, but warned you not to place any rclianca upon the Indians. Have my predictions been verifiedT—Liston. Yesterday, Lt. Alburtis, Com'g. Company K., 2d Infantry, was attacked at his post {Fort 11 rooks, on tho Oclawa- wnhn) by 100 Indians,supposed to bo Allock-tus-te* nuggee's band,—the circumstances, (si far as they havo been ascertained from n soldier just from the scene of action,) ore these: A Corporal, iul hunting, was killed; sermo of his comrades who escaped, reported toLt. Albiftti* that the Indians, in forco, were near him. Taking with him 18 mon, he salliad out, leaving the rest of his company in the block-house, with orders in case they were attacked uot to yield. Lt. Alburtis, in a few moments, fell in with thu Indians, and an ae tion commenced which lusted upwards of an hour. Our liravo men wore forced to retreat, but did so in good order, keeping up a continued fire until their ammunition was exhausted, lleing cut off from their own post, they retired to Fort Russell.

INAUGURAL ADDRESS. ^ Tho Republican scents anxious to know tho rca- I sons for our bvliof that the Inaugural Address of President Harrison “will bo crammed with* Anti-Abolition sentiments." ( Wc proceed to glvo thorn, though not to the ex- 'tent wo would wish ns wo find that matto of in Itwrest, extracted from our exchange pnpers, claim insertion. | President Ilatrison, it is slated, without contra, diction, will appoint Francis Granger of Now York, to tho important oflico of Postmaster Genoral. This gentleman has had the loint of abolition ism pinned to his skills in times past, and al though President Harrison is reported tu have said that Mr. Granger is freo from tho chargo, and although Mr. Granger himself is also reported to have said thut if he is an Ablitionist, President H. should leave him out ofhls cabinet, or words to that cffuct, yet, in common with a rospcctablo por tion of the Southern peoplo, wo object to Mr. Granger, because on this subject ho resembles not the wife of Ctcsar, and Is not above suspicion. It was due by the now President (disclaiming, as bo lias, during tho ennvass, any connexion or part with tiio Abolitionists) to the Soulliorn people, siller to piece a citizen of tho South at tho head of tho Post Office, or ono ol the North, who would bo approved, in this matter, by both parlies. Wo will not attempt to " enlighten" tho Repub lican on lids or any other subject, but while wc have control over on independent press, (imbued with what wo beh'evo thu true Democratic faith,) wnsliull express our belief of future events, even though it niny bo thought to encroach upon tbe opinions of others. Wo proceed to refer to Mr. Granger’s remniks on a recent occnsion, to show that if no Abolitionist in theory, ho would, in practice, favor them. In the I Iouso of Congress sn tho 15th of January, 1310, Mr. Thompson’s resolution, that the question oj reception of abolition petitions shall bo luidupon tho tablo without debato or further action thereon, the reception of such petitions being considered a- objected to, being before tho House. Mr. Monroe moved tho following, which was read for the infor mation of tho House: “Resolved, That all petitions, memorials, reso lutions, and nddres-cs of every description touch ing thu abolition of slavery in the District of Colum f bis, or in tha States or Territories, or in any man ner relating to tho existence of slavery or tho slavo ! trade in the U. States, be referred, without debate, to a select Committee, with instructions tu consider und repot t thereon." Mr. Granger than followed, and, in n speech of sumo length, contended for the right of petition, which ho said would be outruged-by the adoption of tho resolution. We havo arrived at a point at which it is proposed to engraft on tho nile* of tho Representative Assembly of tho freest Government on earth, a standing order by which nopnper shall be received which presumes to speak on a question of personal liberty. Here was an opinion practical |y consistent with Jeffersonian principles, practical Jyconsistent with modern Democracy! He asked if, in a Government like ours, we had arrived at o point at which the only question that could not be discussed in that Heuso was a question involving lilx-rty or slavery; Mr. G. after denying that he v ns un Abolitionist, said, if gentlemen would con tinuu to press thisquostion In this form, thoy would find enlisted under the banner of Abolitionism n number of gallant spirits at tbe North who would never quail; and that it would then lie discovered that tho South was not tho only part of this nation possessing moral force, and which, knowing it* rights, dares maintain them. Mr. G. expressed tho liope that a resolution would be offered referring these petitions to a committee to consider and re K rt on them, though be could not approve of ma ictiny standing order of tho ilouso on the sub J *Jg 0 £flkriU be seen Mr. G. was not only in favor of aWldrence and consideration of these fire-brand resolutions, but attempted to frighten the Represen tatives of the South from their position by mere verbiage. The new President miy, by verbiage, attempt to reconcile the South to Mr. Granger, but although he disclaim* being an Abolitionist wo want him not. We ire aware that tin Richmond Whig is striving to whitewash Mr. O., but wa believe tint the Southern people will Judge Mm rightly. Themw President will, in bit Inaugural, attempt, .i think, le remove the apprehensions of one por- lien of the eeuatry for the Post Office, bv professing sentiment* iaimfeel to these who aenk It aa • «ha»- M 1 for ihrir Incendiary publication*.

Government were brought intu the discussion this evening, while the Military Appropriation Oil! was wipler consideration. Mr. Downing, of Florida, first made n speech, and proposed an amendment for iho payment of the militia in that territory, tha 1 hsd been called into the survlce uf tho United Sintet* Mr. Evans of Maine, then submitted an amendment to the amendment, for tho purpose of paying thorn citizens of his Stato that weruenguged in keeping off British aggression. Mr. Dawson of Georgia, fol lowed, and hoped the gentleman from Maine would allow him to put in his Georgia claims. Here, Mr. Crabb of Alabama, stated that his Suite had a long standing clnlm lor tho services of Iter militia. Scve. tal of tho small fry, including Graves of Kentucky, then got up and made long talks on topics connect ed with general politics, but seldom pertaining to tho subject under'Consideration. Tho Amendment* are all pending, and an effort will bo mado to get the billoutofCnmmhteo thls-ovening. The amend* moms were then rejected by a vote of 76 to 73.— During the morning, attempts were made to amend the bill by adding an appropriation of $100,000 for tho removal of obstructions to the Rod River Raft, and $10,000 (or the manufacture of Colt's patent firearms. Both propositions were supported with conildorablu ability, but failed without a count. The Senate have passed a bill altering the Judi ciat Circuits of the Supreme Court, which adds an Additional district to tho south western States. An Executive session was then hold, at whieh it is said the nomination of Peter V. Daniel, Esq. of Virginia, as Judge of the Supremo Court, in place o r Mr. Barbour, decanted, was confirmed. It U said that Josso Hoyt,*tho Collector of tho poll of Now York, hat boon removod, for refuting lodoliver up certain feet which belong to the Government. Mr. Jno. J.

[FOR TIIK GEORGIAN.] In tho Republican of Friday it an Editorial ortl* clo, oxttnetod from tho Charleston Mercury, ontl tied "the Cotton crop," in which it is observed with much complacency, "On the first of January wo staked our credit on thu prophecy that by the first of March, tho receipts of tho present crop would have fallen short of those of tho isms period Inst year 200,000 halos." A statement is then giv cn from tlm Charleston Trice Current, shewing the receipts of the present year less by 212,527 hales, than to the snme date* of ilia Inst; unfortunately howaver, for the prophetic character of the Editor, ho has adduced his proofs from a Price Current which has exhibited striking inaccuracies forlhreo weeks past, at may bo soon by an inspection ol it* tables. The Prico Currant of this city, published yesterdny, exhibits a decrease, with later dates from somo of the ports, of only 186,445 hales, which is further lessened to 180,959 bnles, by tho Mobile Prico Current received Friday night. Tho difference of32000 bales is not material, and agree ing as 1 nonrly do with tho Editor as to tbe proha hie extent of tho crop, his statement of the differ once in the receipts of tho two seasons, would havo cscoped remark, had it not been proper to call at lontion to'tlic superior accuracy of the tabular state mont* of tho Savannah Prico Current. It is su- ported that an addition will lmvo to ho mado to tho Charleston receipts in tho spring, tho samo at last year, when a largo quantity of Sea Island and 12000 Uplands were added, without remark, having arrived unnoticed. The quantity of Cotton received to any given dato is not conclusive as to tho extent of tho crop, much depending on the Stato of the Ronds and rivers, also on the priens and prospects; but somo tiling like a correct idea may ho formed by compnr ing at this advanced period, the receipts and crops of several preceding years, viz: 1841, 1840, 1R39, 1S38, 1837, 1836, Received, 934 1120 798 1006 800 714 Crop, 2178 1368 1801 1423 1360 Rec'd after this time, 1058 570 795 623 646 ' A. (Correspondence of llie Southern Patriot.) WASHINGTON, March 1. In tho Hnuso of Representatives, hi tho courio of tho morning,a tumor was sot afioat that a very angry correspondence had just taken place between Mcssis Fox and Forsyth on the case of McLeod and which it was said, foreboded immodiate hostilities between us ond England. Mr Pickens despatched u messngo to tho Stale Department to lonrn tha fuel. After tho messagohad rctnrned Mr Pickens stated to the House, that there wss not tho slightest foun dation fur such a rumor, and that no correspondence had token place that could alter the position of the parties at tho time tho last correspondence was for warded to f ho House. There are some who believe that the courso of Messrs. Pickens and Buchanan is adopted only os a matter of policy, and thatnn ongry correspondence has takon plnco. It cannut bo supposed for a mo ment howaver, that the Country would thus be do signedly bo kept in ignorsneo of such important movements.

The Republican remarks—"Let our noighhor tnko our word for it, however, there is no thunder in thorn," (the "wind lings.") We would advise ''our neighbor,” not to "lay that flattering unction to his soul," hut to await "coming events, which cast their shadows hcrora" them. Self-righteousness may consign tho Democratic Party to tho abodes of I'luto, or any otlior retreat, but modorn uhigism is not mighty enough, to con fine it there, even if it could lie proved to tho satis, factian of any other Whig, savo tho Republican, that tholr descent has been so low. NIGHT AND MORNING. We have read through, and at night, what we lielievo and hope to be the “night" which charae •erizns port of tho title and tho fitst portion of this now work. Highly wrought as are the thick com ing fictions which oppress tho reader with their al* |ianco to the truth, we fear, of many an earthly- scene, he derives an anodyne from ,lho beautiful ideas, intersjrarxed through iu pogos, which like the solar luminary, penetrates the cloud* of a mel ancholy existence and awakens new life in tbo so journer in this valo of tears. Tho author’s description of the two brothers ro minded us of our pleasure when wn first peruaed Scott’s contrasted portraits of Minda and Brenda Troil—the ono "the presiding genius," the other "the darling” of his proud mother. Tho contrast between the "haughty boy-rider" and the "manly and knightly bearing" of the elder Beaufort, which drew an involuutary sigh from the impatient and chagrined expectant of Ids fortunes, represented by the person of his worldly and selfih brother, struck u* as glowing with the fine touche, of nulwer.

It is often complained that we set far too high a value upon any thing foreign and imported, to tlie discouragement and exclusion of native product ion. There is some truth in this chargo, hut so joined ami interwoven with errur,that wo are too often im posed upon when we glvo credit to it. It is said for instance that wo esteem European manufactures above tltoir true value, nnd that it is not only a want sf taste,hut of patriotism,to employ any producer* to the dotriinont of our own. However this may he, it must ho acknowledged that there is too often a vast deal of affectation displayed in tho groat nnd unmerited proferei.co which is shown fir that which possesses no other superiority titan iu increased price arising from tho expenses nf importation. But tho argument nsually omplnynd against this feeling nnd practice, provas loo much, and is based upon tho fnlsonssiimpt ion that tire demand for any article will, of necessity, provide a sOpplyonthe spot whore it is required; whereas there may lie a thousand causes why it may he obtained, of a hot. terquality an.lnt n lower rate, from nbroad. But tho spirit to which we have alluded is parti, cularly exhibited in tho loud complainu mode against tho preference shown fur tho English magazines and works of fiction, whereby our own authors are said tube underrated, neglected and discouraged. During our colonial relations, nothing was valued which wns not brought from England, and what ever was required,however trifling nnd insignificant, was to ho supplied from across tha sea. Great as has boon our ndvancoraent since those days of our infancy, wo have not jet surpaisod the old world; wu nro still in the gristle, and it would still ho folly, while doing our best tu attain excellence, to hesi tate to u«e them things which nre furnished ready to nurhunds butter than we can make them. Wo enn claim excellency—tiny superiority—in so many department* that ono would suppose we might allow truo merit In others without grudging; Oar Inwyers nnd physicians nre hotter informed than members of thu same professions in Unglmrd— machinist* nro overwhelmed with orders—our offi cer*. both military and naval, are knownond appro, crated; but when we turn to general literature, wo must look for excellence olsewliorc. No ono can compare our periodicals, newspapers, and novcls> with those Issued Irom lira r.ifgiis.. a this to bo wondered at, or to bo esteemed a route of self-condemnation j wo have not the competition, tho division of labor, or tho opportunities which it possesses. Iu excellence in these department* is provod by nothing so conclusively os by the senilo imitntion which hnt boen so common, and so deserv. edly unsuccessful. We are too apt to look back upon that which las been, ns if its excellence forbade us to atumpt to equal or surpass it. Hence tho common questim, "where will you find now-n-dnys such men as • nnd —I” Tltpre mny not bo *0 many of thisc "grantor lights" whom names shall live with tin memory of man, but their place is more than sin. plied. A Homer, n Shakspearc, or a Scoll, miy novernguin Ira ^cen—but there aw to ho found in tholr atcail mony who ritthly deserve our admire lira nnd gratitude. In a word, love of the post should not blind our judgment of the present, and line of country should not forbid our giving to foreign no. thora wlrai is justly their duo. We should look with more pleasure upon the limes on which we have failon, and with morn pride upon lira well-won reputation of authors of the worthy stock from which wo sprung. It is recorded of the Anglo Indians, however long th«y hftvc been absent from their own land, Itowovur hound to the country and iu institution* and oven of those who have hetn born in India, that they still speak of England as horns. There {a a stronger resemblance,there should be a strong er sympathy, between ourselvss and England, though wc have ceased to be dependent on her,than between herself ami her subjects in the East. We should regard Iter with feelings of stronger affection than wo too often do. We have nativo poets whom all admire, non* more than ourselves, hut tho scripture may be ap plied to many of them. “Tha cares of this world and thu dcceilfulneoi of riches" have drawn them off from all better things. We havo native novel 1st*, and those, too, who have had the independence to lay the r scenes in the untrodden ground of the new world; but we must still b« permitted to read with greater delight, such works a* those of James, with hi* faithful and graphic historical portraits, and his delicious bit* of introduction at the opening of each chapter, bright as tho rane* which bed* scribes. Nor can the best of American novels in terest us, as do tha works of Bulwer—that truest of philosophers, who draws away the veil from the ho- man heart, and shows us its mingled good and evil, a* none else ever did. If we with for excellence in this department, we must look f»r it abroad. The reason is obvious. As yet there cannot be sufficient encouragement for men uf talent to make such writings profession. This will be done by and byo, but, in the meantime, let not narrow bigotry, or self-interest, under specious names, prevent our appreciating, enjoying, and profiting by th« works of oilier than nativo author*. tirnti* of thu welfare ami happiness of lira pe<qtle. \ ra. t'tiey go to Church avery Huwlay.

H'e admits 1 he right of Congress to open their door to tho thousand petitions of the Abolitionists—of course to the discussion, to tlie agitation of this most agi tating subject—and to all tha ills, to all the excite ment, to all the alienations between North and South, which such a discution is calculated to pro. ’ duct! lie admits, no doubt, also,upon tho samo principle, the abstract right of the abolitionists to circulate tirair firebrand* publication* through tha mails.
