flic Slone Mountain.—This stupendous freak
four nature, although one of the greatest curi
osities of which our country can boast, has as yet
'ceived much less attention from the curious
traveller, than it deserves. It is about to acquire
a n additional interest by the erection of a tower
or observatory of great height anti dimensions
on its summit. Mr. Aaron Cloud, of Henry
county, is now engaged in the construction of a
carriage road to the summit of the mountain, and
it completed about three-fourths of the dis
tance. About two hundred yards at the steep
est part, is necessarily constructed of wood,
which is nearly completed. The tower is not
yet commenced, hut will be as soon as the road
js completed. It is contemplated that the ob
servatory be two or three hundred feet in height.
This we*think rather unnecessary, as the moun
tain 's a tolerable observatory itself—2226 feet
|,i<r|i according to the measurement of an engi
neer.
Them is a very good house for the enter
taimnentof travelers, kept by a Mr. Johnson, at
thn foot of the mountain.—Georgia Messen-

From the Georgia Journal.
The Connecticut elections have resulted in
‘die defeat 01 the Van Buren Party: the Whigs
have swept the State. It is not to be conceal-
ed that the measures of the administration have
been severely condemned by the People, if the
several elections which have taken placa, can
'be considered a test. For ourselves, opposed
as we always have been to the present incurn.
■ bent of the Executive Chair, we acknowledge,
wc can sec with no exultation, these Northern
victories. We know not the means whereby
they are acbeived. But we know that this
fearful increase of the Whig strength bodes no
good to the South. Mr. Webster is a Whig;
and he has avowed in the United States Senate,
that the time will shortly arrive, when the A-
merican system can be revived. These Whig
victories may be the precursors of that time
predicted by Mr. Webster: of the time when the
Tariff with its train of oppressions, exactions, and
extortions from the South, may again drive a
sovereign Slate to determined resistance.
Without being the partisan of Mr. Calhoun, we
-must say like him, we dislike being absorbed in
She great Whig Parly.
There are other reasons why we look with
distrust upon this increasing strength of a party
wit!) whom we have been allied in opposition
to the oppressive, and extravagant course of
the administration Their sympathy is too dif
fusive.—their friendship is rattier too officious.
Many of them we know are honorable excep
tions. But a portion (and we are satisfied a
small but energetic portion) are too deeply
engaged in the fanatical efforts to destroy our
property while a huge part and we believe a
large majority are anxiously watching an op
portunity, to interfere between Georgia and her
domain; to protect the Cherokeees, as they torin-
it, from tyranny and injustice. Petitions are
already thronging Congress, to interfere in be
half of the Indians, and on this subject the North
is incalculably more insane than on the Slave
ry question. More yield to the prevailing
opinion there upon this subject, because the
■deep injustice they would do us is not so glaring
ly self-evident. It is of course nothing that
Georgia should be ejected from her property
which she puichasod and paid for thirty six
yars since, more than a generation ago. To
say nothing of the dangerons proximity of the
peaceful and industrious agriculturist, to the
idle and treacherous savage.
Without know mg the merits of the case, many
of the people, (the voters, not the leading politi
cians, they are more wary) the voters presume
to constitute themselves a tribunal to judge, be
tween the State of Georgia, and the Indians with
in her limits. The State is represented as ra
pacious, overbearing, and tyranicnl; the Indian,
as patient, submissive, and tractable; the coun
try provided for llicir reception as wild anti
inhospitable. These wiseacres forget the fact
that the purchase money was paid by Georgia
to the Federal Government years ago, and that
they themselves have risen to opulence in con
sequence of this very transaction; that the
Cotton lands of Alabama &. Mississippi, boruglit
into cultivation by this very sale, has poured
wealth into their laps, and extended their com
merce while it enabled them to drain the South.
They forgeltlie plantations surprised, the houses
plundered, the property stolen and the owners
murdered by the patient, submisive and tracta
ble savage; they forget that a patty of this
very tribe of Cherokees, for whom their sym
pathies are no\r enlisted, two years since, emi
grated to the verv country they picture as wild
and inhospitable, and are enjoying an opulence &
content unknown to their deluded and obstinate
brethren.
With so little knowledge ofthe subject of their
intrusive interference, they presume to adjudge
the case, and we of course are expected to be
silent, because the blow upon our cheek is from
a brother in arms. We know however, how
much we may count on their friendship, while
we implicitly submitto their dictation, adopt and
aid in carrying out their political manoeuvres,
vote ;.s their Conventions bid us, and be silent
when they disregard our feelings, our political
interests and our private property, so long and
on longer are these Northern Whigs our friends.
M e speak of them as a party; and while we
gaze upon the record of their successes against
■a common opponent, we look forward to the
time when we must buckle on our armor, lay
-our lance in rest, and battle with these allies of
to day—opponents of yesterday—and adversa
ries ot to-morrow. That time will come. Geor
gia must look to herself, and in doing so ac

bail to contend with during the late alarming slate of the
