of the public gnzettes.
We do not appear in this case is the apologists of the
bupreme Court. Tliat tribunal isas n» cessary in the De
partments of the Government, asils co-ordinate branch
es within its legitimate, constititional boundries, it is
as salutary, perhaps more so, thauany of the three—hut
like its co-ordinates, it should b< closely watched, that
he constitutional rights of the Sntes should not be en
croached upon Nor should theStxtes be too anxious
to take iroui the Federal Govtrmienl, any rights that
clearly belong to it. That Govc r nnent was found to be
neces.-ary to the family of States—<il essentially depends
upon public opinion for its existence. Public opinion
shuuld therefore be kept as free from prejudice as possible.
No earthly tribunal is free fpjoi error—uiaity of them are
subject to corruption—but sufficient unto Ihe day is the
evil thereof.
If we have taken a correct view of tl is cose, as we be
lieve we have, the Supreme court is suljert tonocensi-i'e for
liic issuing of the writ and citation. We cannot therefore
regard it as the parteither of justice, magn infinity jr pat

TUESDAY, F&HRUAHY 8, ism.
THE NEXT PRESIDENT & VICE PRESIDENT.
In oarla-t, we stated thul Andrew Uckson iiaubeen
reguiarl) announced lor re-tkciiun io Hie Frestdcrcj.—
Ia ourcilunim today will be found an arlicle l>om Ihe
Cilobe an that subject. The- question is Wiertfoies.thli.il,
.nut fo; wilt Ue supported for that office, and the tissue is
- cured j doubtful.
Wjta regard to the Vice. Presidency, the public mind
seems aotto be so well seined. We percuve that some
vague cot jeciures are afloat, that Mr. Crawford will be
put in nomination. V\e have mil the Bonniest expecta
tion taut this Will be done. At home, where Mr. Craw-
t jrd is best known, it is notorious lh... he is not qualified
i ir the discharge of all office so arduous and important.—
1 lie time has been, when ins powers of body and mind
were fuliy adt q.iute to such a stall'U. But ilte revolu
tions of tnu^ have wrong!.t in him what it effects in all
things physical and moral Tne vt ry attempts that have
-lecii Oiide, dorii.gttie lew past y uis of Mr. Crawford’s
“fe> t > buoy Inin up m jiuiiuc opjniori lion* certain indica

i,at h:» hicnusare convinc'd oftbedeep inroads made in
an Republican (si ila iieitni)—cooifactffl in an able, gf»-
letl, and courteous manner. Within the recollection of
thOfisands now in life, emigrants to Tennessee were tom*
companies to the VVest, and toposi
their ccntinels, like regular armies, to avoid the Indian
tomahawk. Nuw many parts of Tennessee are almost
gardens. We need no b« tter evidence of the physical und
intellectual improvement of a country, than such journals
as the Republican, published at Nashville, Tentusste.
We have been favored with the perusal of lhe 2d and 3<1
numbers of the “ Mutual Rights and vikthodist Pro
testant,” a new religious papei, published at Baltiuture,
uoder ilie auspices cf the Meiliodist Protestant Chmth,
commonly known as the Reformers—,Mr. John J. Hai-
rod. Editor. The Protestant is printed in the first style,
on superior paper, in the form of 8 large quarto pages.
The selected mat'. ’r is cliuaen with uncommon taste aim
judgment—and the original articles are written with no
ordinary ability. In our last wc made some remarks a P
plicable generally to the Christian character of the '-U-
thodist. We understand that the Methodist Protestants
do not differ in faith and practice from the Methodist K-
piscopat Church, except in some matters of eecb siasUeal
pohty. This work mu.-tcontributegreatly to the difiusiou oi
religious and general knowledge, and the improv. ment of
good taste among the Methodist Piotestanis. From the
eiiaracter of the two numbers before us, we can say. wi h
cold courtesy, that this is among the most iespecial li-
wcck.y periodicals of our country. In these numbers
we find the following liberal und enlightened sentiments
—“ Ecclcsiaciical liberty has been pursued as a prerequi
site to moral, intellectual, and religions ixt * Ib r.c*, which i-
tlie perman n:—grand objectuf‘he Methodist Prntestant.”
“ We tender to ail our brethren, of wbati vet name, « ho
love the Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity aud obey his Cfo.s-
pel, the right hand of fellowship.”
Correction-—In mentioning one of the Candidates lor
Governor in Rhode I.-land, in our last, bv over.-iuht we
hail it James fanner—it shhuld have been Fenner.—
Should tut weather continue as it has b«en for some tiir.e
past, we dinilit whether the Rhode islunders would need
e public tanner.

iti cent developemcuts having pointed to Vir. Calooun as

There is another relleclion that induces us to suppose
thi-r» is no foundation for tiie serious belief that he will
be no iunated. Would the friends of Mr. Crawford, if
they believe him to be what he once w ie, consent that he
shou'u fi'! a station Secondary to Ifo man he formerly up-

we htve wiiai it should have been. As soon as tbe Chief
Justice should have perceiv. d that i- was x criminal cans--
from a SLute C/ri wiluin her own limits, he would havt
refused the suptrsedeas, and there the case, with all its
difficulties and ueait-burnings would have ended. For it
seems to be well settled by the Federal Judges, that the
8uprem< Court will not entertain uppi Hate jurisdiction
from the State Courts in criminal causes. There is there
fore no ground for criminating that Cuurt in this case.—
The State of Georgia therefore had a right to disregard
this citation, without any contempt towards the Federal
Court or any assumption of right not belonging lo her.
Tuese matters however should always be done in a cour
teous manner. As she never could consent to resign her
right of jurisdiction over the Cherokee lands, it was as
wlH that, she should assert her rights in the outset, and
deny at once, tbe jurisdiction of the Supreme Court. So
long as she cnose not to exert her juiisdiction, the Chrr-
okces were left to their own rude laws and usages But
when tlmt tribe attempted lo organize a r. gular Govern
ment within h r territorial limits, it was time to interfere.
We did so: and we know no tribunal that has the power
to q resti -n our light. How far Treaties or contracts
wiin tbe Indian tribes, regularly entered into, and acqui
esced in by a State—.he advantages of which such Slate
may-have rpaped—may create a moral obligation, is a
•tvilti a first rank iu the grand celebration at
Baltimore, October 25* n, 1830, of the triumphs
of the press—and the people ol
Regenerated France.
Which fl*g, associated with that of the craft
particularly in-pecled these treaties with a view to such
questions—but wc presume there is no surrender of juris
diction, as iho parlies were nut authorised to m .ke any.
Dur political right, however, is well settled, and that is
tiie right by which States are governed.
In the C!*se uf Tassels, there appears lo us to be two
. , „ w _ i • questions of jurisdiction—1st. the question of territorial
and Hie fl-,g H tne union, was borne in the pro- j 1 uristdicti: , n „ J 2J the - - - . -L- • -* ■

Kentucky Senator.—Eleven more ineffectual
attempts have been made in the Kentucky Le
gislature to elect a Senator in Congress On
the 13 h ballot Col. Breathitt, the Lieut. Go
vernor, was put in nomination, and received
votes. On the 16th ballot, the vote stood
for Crittenden 68—Breathitt 65—Johnson 5
The previous ballotting Breathitt received 66
All the diificulties are created by the pledged
meo. They dare not vote for Crittenden, but
ty “shilling and torniog” contrive to throw a-
q KSti-.n of jurisdiction over tbe sub
ject matter of the case. In regard to theji r »f— a large
proportion of the Stales has cx-^rciseJ, for many years,
the right of legislation for the Indian tribes within their
territorial limits—which right we believe has never been
overruled by the Federal Court—for it is clear that that
Court, (except in cases expressly provided by the Consti
tution) has no jurisdiction over tbe inhabitants of whate
ver color within the boundaries uf any Stjte—In respect
to the second—the subject matter of jurisdiction, or caus
es—the principle is settled, by the Federal Judges them-
seWes, against the right of jurisdiction.
We therefore believe that Tassels was legally tried,
convicted and executed. And is there any thing shocking
to the most nervous humanity, that one Indian should be
hung for the murder of another 1 ? If this case could have
gone legally before the Chief Justice, we have no
P'rtroup :.i his nullifying principles, yet retain then

That Mr. L’lniukm is feared as the competitor of either,
or both, is evident. We fod ourselves fully authorised
