Legislative.—The Indian Land BiH has been under warm debate for several days in the House. Mr. Mc Donald, of Bibb, has offered a. new substitute to both the previous Bills. It contains a provision for reservations, the fuH fee simple value of which are to be paid to Geor gia by the Government. Wo learn that this substitute is predicated upon information from Washington. The prospect for the removal of the common mass of the In dians appears to be brightening. Mr. Singleton's Reportand Bit! on the common sehool system will be found on the first page. Success to them. Mr. Wirt's Law suit.—The second division of the 3d section ami 4tharticle as the United States’Constitution settles Mr. D irVs Cherokee suit In few words. It reads thus: ... “ The Congress shall have power to dispose of, and mike all nectlfol rules and regulations respecting the ter ritory or other property of the United States; am) noth ing in this Constitution shall be so construed, as to pre- ~ on their side of line house voted aiiaiustit; and he being jud;cc any claims of the United Stales, or of any particu- enzHee ^ ^ pea^e of Georgia sayf What wiU the eonstitueuts of the Senators in (he majority a»y?” ^ 1, as one of the *‘re*d'e/9”—as oneTof “fee people of Georgia,” as one of the “constituents of the Senators in the majority,” above appealed to “say," that the above is s Jabncalum, and untrue from beginning to end—It bears /“behead upon its front; and shows how mis erably hard pot to it the minority are to sustain feem- aelves When seeking to do so by such mean artifices. Surely it cannot be that this article was penned on infor mation from any member Of the Senate—as for as "“nr of them may be disposed to go in hostility to the republi can party, it connot be they should liave one among <>»»»» so unpriiicipled as to furnish a statement known by aU who noticed tlie proceedings alluded to, to be wholly un true. Veracily is not a distinguishing trait of the j Recor der; the article in question may. therefore be deemed a bantling of the original stock. Bat is it pot disgraceful that the official conduct of htoorabh: men should he'liable to such barefaced, misrepresentation? The writer of the article in question desjgued fosay that the Clark party-vo-. ted viva voce against a resolution, .which they voted in/o- vor of. when the hr votes were required-to be recorded. This is untrue. The Clark partyin&taotfy discovered (ho amendment off. red ty Daniell uf ('h.-ufcam to be a trap T and several of them openly expressed that idea, before aijy yote was taken upon the subject.

WOOD’S RESOLUTIONS. An attentive review of the proceedings' of the Senate upon these resolutions will shew tliat our views have not been mere speculations. The several substitutes offered by gentlemen of the Troup parly verify t*ie preamble, and foriiish internal evidence of its truth, h will be remein- bered that Mr. Branham moved to strike out the whole ^f Hie preamble. The next most important attempt of the Troup party that we shall notice al this time, is the substi- ■ ute utf red |>y Mr. Da nidi, uf Chatham, to the 2a sec- lion of the resolutions. The original, it will be recollect ed, condemned the tariffs of 1824 and ’28 and demanded tiieir mocilication. Mr. Daniel! offered the folioivimr substitute—“Resolved that the taritis of 1S24 and 18£§ are unconstitutional and oppressive.to the South; and that .where the Constitution is viulated by an act of the Feder al Legislature destruciire of th • sovereign rights of the slates, fach slate, throwing its.//upon Ha origin I, sover eign and reserved rights, may of right do ant act which the people in stick State may deem necessary for their peace and happiness ” It will he seen that this substitutecon- tains the most iniquitous doctrine—being the very ideas scut up bv Governor Troup to the hulltfiers, and almost a literal transcript of a part of Ids letter.

They are worthy to be recorded along side ofLiyiugston*s speech, Drayton’s address, and Madison’s letter. They honor his teed and Ids heart; and must convince every one who carefully reads them, that his abandonment of doctrines heretofore attributed to turn, proceeds from dcop conviction, produced by a train of irresistable reasoning*. That lie should meet wiui censure from those whose evil doctrines lie has ex posed and denounced, wart matter of course. That Re should “meet it freely’’ from the. organ of Thomas Coop- cr, >1. D. was necessarily to be expected. \Y nat patriot has ever escaped,eensure aud abuse from that print ?— There can be no greater eulogy, pronounced upon, any moo, than to be vituperated by that press, and its coo - federates. Every thought, lino, and word,. betrays the sentiments of a foreigner, whose opinion, are at war wnh the g< uius of out iiistituiious.aud whose chief delight apt'ears to consist in n viling our government, setting at defiance our laws; and. traducing, every native eiuxcn wad scorns-to become the pliant tool of his misahtt vous designs. •' Judge Smith’s previous political sentiments, I do not nOw Oeicnd Perlii'.ps there is much in them deserving of ccnsure—But because lie h ia sometimes erred, i* is unreasonable to require him always lu do so.' Those who have opposed his errors, aud censured him freely for them, are hie opponents so tong only as lie cleaves to a course they deem erroneous. The moment he aban dons what id objectionable in bis tenets, and steps forth u. defender of sound Republican doclrinrs, he will find his “old enemies” converted into new friends, that wiU”gwc him a warm ivclcome to their ranks.” Tbe cnnniy of a reasonable man is directed against the heresy, and nor the heretic f and this' every misguided Carolinian who now, from honest motives, sides with tlie enemies of hi country, will experience whim he shall -.vun candoti and turn again to those of Jefferson arid -Wedwon. I have been not a little amused at tlie crumbs of com fort tbe Telescope ha* gleamed from the proceeding, on Wood’* resolution in the Senate of Georgia. Low in deed mast be th- hopes of Coopers disciples, when such scanty morsels uffjtd them so great consolation as the Telescope exuliingiy claims fronr tlie discussion oa those rcsoi.iUons. However much they may have been en couraged by Troup’s,letter, and the secret assurances of others “ who art in the secret” it may be rtiied upon, ihmt the friends of Cooper are few in number,' and too GEORGIA—H^ory county. . v ....

But we cann t refrain.collirig the attention of our renders to »hr following extmet from tbe Augusta Chronicle, select'd from ap.article signed “A Citix^n ” “ Our author de nie's the entity of faction in South Carolina; but, Sir, tids ass'-rtimi is untennhie ; for three days ago, a number of Cnroiiuians, at wy house, declared publicly, that if tliemiiilary fofcedf tlie advorates of nullification-should iiltipiutely prove inefficient, the cooperation of Englmul would be attainable.” What will tbe Telescope say to this? Does it expect Georgia to go with such Carolipi- ansas these? The Columbia Telescope congratulates itself that Geor gia will yet go with some uf the politicians oT South Car olina in their ultra course. Tbe people of Georgia will do no such thing. The Telescope begins to find its own ground shdiog rapidly from onder it. Dr. Cooper will probably fare in Carolina as be has done elsewhere, and thenld gentleman, (Iq use a plantation phrase) will soon find himsrit stvhe end-orbis row. The good sense of ilie people of S. Carolina has silenced, in a' good degree, the senseless clamor about nullification. If it be any grat i fication to tbe Telescope fo know-ihat many of Governor ’Troup’s adherents in Georgia ire disgusted at his letter,, and others afraid and ashamed openly to avow its doc trines, it is quite welcome to a tt the comfort of such a-re- flection. We know there ore some in Georgia who go all lengths with hiui—and though they may approve his sen timents, they dare not npen'ycdme out as nullifitrs. They are now writhing under Wood’s Resolutions and were very anxious to avoid voting on them As to Out Northern feelings and Northern principles—if to he born and bought up South of the Savannah, and to think and feel with Williams, Drayton, Livingston, and Madisou, he to possess Northern principles and Northern feeling*,' we are quite willing to lie under the imputation—much more so than to be subjeet tothe influence and feelinga of a foreigner, who thinks France and England more natu rally our friends than Massachusetts, Kentucky, or New York. , \ (roc THC rcDKRSt. UNIOIl.) Mr. Editor— In the Recorder of the 13th instant, 1 find the following editorial “ ouaments.”^ "Tire proceedings of Friday ended by.toying on the ta ble the preamble and resolutions.—The next day they were again token tip, and adopted, as will be seen under tbe head of “Georgia Legislature,,’ with tbe additional resolution offered by Mr. Daniel!, of Chatham, declaring the opposition of the legislature of Georgia, to Ike polit ical principles of Mr. John Quincy Adams, ae expressed in bis uragural address. After Mr. Daniell had offered hi#resolution, the Presi dent of the Senate demanded, in Ute usual way,the sense of the Senate upon it.—All the members on the seine side of the faouse with Mr. Daniell, said Aye; but most of all the members of the other side mid No. The President had declared the resolution as lost, when * member of tbe Clerk party, reflecting on the consequence the vote, they had given against the resolution disapproving the admin istration of Mr. Adams, would have among their epustit- uents, who are almost unanimously friendly to the present administration, Warned his friends of what they were do ing. This warning had a good and happy effect, for on taking the sense of the Senate, by yeas and noes, to! not one member voted against the resolution. What think ye of this legislative teensaettour, reader?. W hat wilt the j csult deplorably for theta, to attempt to get it up—aim' they who, in the Senate voted against the pnss-i-jv. 'of Major Woods resolutions, wifi Jmd some difficulty in satisfying the constituents they have so palpably mia-r pre sented. Dr. Coopers* paper says, “ Georgia will'.be. with us 13 “ ’V e have every thing to hope from tbetr (the lfiemjs df Typup) uetive and cordialco-aperatioii.-” What wilt the patriotic part of tbe Troup party say to this • Will they permit a few of.tb«-ir leaders to pledge their assistance to aid tnc foreigner Cooper in stirring up rebellion agatusl the government established by vWsnmgl'jn, and his com peers? Troup h is sent in ms adn sno, and the disciples oi the friend of Robespierre, suppose be con carry with him every one-who baa once had tbe oaiae of a “ Troup mai;’- fastened o« bisiwit. Bat have “calculated,:’ and better understand fee v i|uc of the Government that, secures their civil qnd religious .rights. And now that Troup has fraternized with tin. fortran enemy of our in stitutions, veFy ni.myof those who have heretofore been called by his name, have buckled mi the armour of re publicanism, and will uianlully oppose the machinations of domestic eneoties, to preserve the free government for which their forefathers made such great sacrifices, and overcame enemies from without. L< t not the civil warites'close their eyes to-this truth until they, run their beads into the iiooso. “ Georgia will*’ not “be with them.” A moral infl lenct pervades this patriotic Slate, that in spite of the ex^ifomeut of tueal politics, will unite her citizens uround the standard of the .Union, thought-* a thousand such mor as Troup and Cooper should urge- them <o “the shedding of blood-.” I hope the eittlor of the Telescope will publish this ar ticle, or at least so much thereof as relates to Judge brnitb. If he means fairly to represent the msUCr-, he wBl uot hesitate to do so.* FRANKLIN. rOR TUB rEDkfcAU. tXNIOK. MR. WOFFORD AND MR. DOUGHERTY* * Mir. Editor—In the Georgia Journal of the 6ll» instant, under tint headof “Compensation of Jurors,” —in answer to Mr. Wolford, I observed that “M/. Ddugbcity replied (bat tire memory of the gentleman from Habershaun. (Mr. W.) did not serve him at all. I have always, said Mr. D., beeu with that gentleman m his views on the ge neral principle: but I uave stfieays-diifored with him as to the fund out of winch Jurors ought to be paid. Hersfor paying them out of the Treasury, l am for doing theve- ry same thing by an “eetra.tas in -the counties.” In tbe hitter part of bixspeech, ‘These, be said, were his doc trines. He had always maintained them, and b« knew that he bad boon consistent. No geotlemkn, lie oaid, could find a vole of his recorded agamstfhe principle of paying juror*; but he had always voted against paying them out of the fundproposed by the gentleman fromHab- ersham.” This Ui« hooorabie gentleman from Clark, will pardon me for eouthuheiing. I akall proceed to prove that Mr. D. did not if nay a aider with Mr. WMtxd, “aa to the fund out of which ^jurors ought to be paid”— and that the “doctrines?* he now nuuotoins, “he had,” nat “always maintained*—and that My. P. lies mista ken the feet, in saying ‘fee knew that be had been eonsis- tentV—-as Mr. D. said of Mr. Wolford, so may I say ot Mr. D.—“that the memory of the gentleman from” Glark, “did nut Oerve liim at alU” ' Now for proof—In the year ISSS, Mr. Pettit-then a member from the county of Columbia “reported a bill to compensate petit jurors” [see Journals of tbe H. of R p. 8ffj to show out of what “/und;’’ ttw jurors were}nh* compensated, according to fee-.principles and. provisions of Mr. Pettit’s bilt, R i» neeesooey only to copy the first pact of it. If this fond werertohe taken Out of the Trtas- ury t and not to bb rateed by additional taxon upon counties—end it it W then shown tint Mr. DonghCrty supported Mr. Pettit’s bill—and that Mr. Wofford also supported it—then I shall have made good my proof and redeemed u»y promise. The bill commences in 4ho*e yronte, “A b«H tob* entitled an net tor the campsoaetion of petit jurors.” ■bee. 1st. “Beit enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of Georgia in General hv- ■embly met, and it is hereby enacted by the authority of the same, Thatfrr.m and after the passing-of this set, the. sum of ome thousand dallars shall -be anouatty set apart tor fee purpose of compensating-thepetit jurors of the Su perior and Inferior Courts of this State”—aud by the 2d section it waa made the duty of (he Justices of the Inferi or Courts ef the respective counties to draw their drafts upoa tbe Governor, who, sbpvld then issue bis warrants, to (he Treasurer for tbe money. &e. fee. {sen this biffin the office Of the Secretary of the Senate. J At page 237 of the Journals of the House of Representatives, it wijl hi seep that this bill was put upon its passage 1 “tbe yeas and nays were required to be recorded—nfia ore yeas 76, ■ays 24.” Among the supporters of (his bill, the name of Mr. Dougherty is recorded—mid therefore it is made manifest, feat Mr. D. ‘‘had” net “always maintained,” tbe “doctrines” of payingThe jurors “by an extra tax in the counties, and not “out of lhe Treasury”—and that *'he liail” not “always voted against paying them out of \hefuud proposed by the gentleman from Habersham”— but Mr. V\’offjrd’s name is also recorded with Mr.Dough erty’s in support of iMr. Pettit’s bill—and therefore it is evident also that Mr. D has not “always differed with him as to the/tmd out of which jurors ought to be paid;” - Agniir—-io the year 1826, Mr. Pettit introduced anoth er birtfor the compensation of petit jurors, containing fee very same principles as that-of 1825—the funds for that pu rpose to be to ken from, the Treasury* fee. fee. —Against this bill however, Mr. Dougherty repeatedly voted, and therefore “he had”-ncf “beon consistent”—Q> C. fi. I wish to be understood as endeavoring to fix nothing upon Mr. D. but the fact of forgetfulness, k is very pro bable in itself, that from the laps*of ; five year* Mr. D. did not recollect tbe circumstance of having supported (he above mentioned bill of 1825—there Was no organised opposition to the principle^ of the bill, until it bad passed through the House of Representatives and entered tin Senate; there tbe serious opposition originated, and there the silly, principle was engendered and hatched up of lay ing extra taxes upon the purses of the citizens of the dif ferent counties (already too highly taxed) for the purpose as was pretended, ofcouipcnsatingthe jurors, but really for the purpose of defo-aling the bill—not daring to avow an open hostility to the principle of paying petit jurors, for fear of tbe total loss of popularity with their constituents; but cunningly, craftily, subtidy, aod ingeniously pretend ing to advocate the general principle, by substituting in place ol the bill, a systematic burden of additional taxation, annually tube fostened upon, and riveted to the neck* of the rich a inf the poor, the widow add the orphan,—Akys- -tc-ih that never can, nor never ought to be popular in this State: nevertheless, it was a riirewdly devised modus ope rands for delcating the bill for Uie compensation of jurors- —it prevailed—and has defeated every other biff for the same purpose, from (bat time down to tile present mo ment- In short, Mr. Polhill, the people need never expect to' see on act passed for the compensation of jurors, until the Chirk party get a majority in both branches of the Legist ature, then and not till then, will justice be done to jurors. - AN EYE WITNESS, otter inability of* port of It, ami the impnaafejlity of carrying the remainder into practical execution.

No. II. TO THE HONORABLE THE LEGISLATURE OP GEORGIA. “It is military discipline which constitutes the glory of the soltlier r and the power of armies.”—Carnot. It is in vain to. attempt to.inculcate a useful knowledge of tactics among the people of this State during the exis tence of the present militia law. Previous toinumera< ting the absurdities of this code it may not be amiss to notice the collisions ef constant occurrence between our i vn, and tbe lairs of the United States on the same sub ject. And herein the powers of Congress will not be qiestioned, since the jurisdiction oyer the subject is con tkbd fo her by express constitutional appointment. These aretire words—“Congress shall have power to provide for organising, arming, and disciplining the mj|itia, aud for governing such parts of them as may be employed in tlie service of the United Slates; reserving to tire states re spectively fee appointment of the officers, and the author ity of training the militia according to the discipline pre scribed by Congress. It appears, then, that the power to organize, arm, and discipline tbe militia is delegated to Congress by fee constitution-. We have therefore, only to enquire whether Congress have ever exercised the power of organizing the militia ? W hether she has passed any i«w with this end hi view ? If she .has, the law thus pas sed must bp the supreme law of the land “ any thing in he constitution or law a of a particular State to the con- rary notwithstanding.” Congress have passed such * to w; and accordingly by thuiract of tbe 8th May, 1792. .a uniform organization of the whole of the militia of fee U States is attempted. This law is entitled “Ah act iuoreefieclualty to provide, lor the .national defence by stahlishing a uniform militia throughout the United States.” By the third section of this law, it is among -' ■.iier things provided, “That within one day after the pissing of this act, the militia, of the respective States shall be arranged into divisions, brigades, regiments, : battalions aud companies.” The mariner in which this law is to he tffi eUd as well as the appointment of officers tu eonmi jid those various -military divisions arc both used to the States, And all fee State* exercise their privilege in this respect. It is under tbe authority of Ute act uf Congress that every captain*# district in the United States is laid off, under the same authority that every militia officer in tbe U. States holds his couim>*- sioiii I do not mean that those officers derive their com missions immediately from ihe U. States. Everybody kuuws tb-t they are issued by the Governors of Ihe-in- dividjal States Nevertheless fee yfice itself exists on- der the authority.of the U. Stales ; and the same militia officers in grade and in title exist «n all fee. States alike. It is true, we have a law of our own State, establishing mg those offices, and .prescribing the mode of ascertain ing Uiosc districts; but this law is only intended, as it pro fesses, to carry the law of Congress “for establishing a uniform militia” into effect. Every State in the Union bus a similar law, I mean a-law of its own, appointing all the officers, aod establishing all the districts, and other military divisions, required by Congress, in order iJiat.Ru; military organization throughout the U. States might be uniform. No State has the right, to dispense with any <ffi-e established by Congress. If one State liave the right and were to exercise it^ in other words, if every State- were to organize their militia upon their Own plan, each differing from tbe other, there would result interminable confusion in time of peace,- and the most - disastrous cousequences in time of war;- Should this 720 803 285 729 - 10062 593 793 6193 93 703 826 463 340 777 846 52t 355 828 855 550 440 962 889 726 471 472-fQe 516 575 740 801 816 8H4 * : 940-26 901 20*23 127 193 360 576 756 820 909 7047 9G 98. 502 596 661 766 994 15169—20 1SO05 11215 704 225 256 799 434—20 365 800 63* 49» — 744 574 30s 5 8‘>7 692 271 960 780 459 799 551 8957 823-30 554—20 168 836 -20 (93 12027 879 287 45 882- -20 4»7 lt'8 — 647 208—20 4009—20 733 296 292 3*5 486 536 559—20 689 668 724 - 758—rflO-19079 133 523 629 643 674 741 842 807 861 903 935 161*0 162 209 2i6 I 354 40] 97 Ml 160 4l9~ 433 - 605' 613 686 737—20 933 Mil ledge villk, 24th Nov. 1830.

I have now succinctly, though sufficiently shown, 1st. That Congress Acs the right to establish a uniform Militia System throughout fee U. States. 2nd. That in pur suance of that right she has mode the attempt, by her' act of Sth May, 1792 and other subsequent acts. 3d. That any law of a particular State “ nullifying” this act at Congress isitsmf void, because it is consuntcd toby all the Congress upon subjcets'wjfeio their jurisdiction,aboil be tbe supreme la wjs of'fee-tend, and ot paramount obliga tion to those of a State.
