important saving of expense to the stale. • If the
promt alteration is uot assented to by the peo

they will consent to call another convention—nor
it certain, that if another wore called, that.a
more unexceptionable nrrai.gcmeut, would bo a-
tiopted. It seems tn u<, therefore, thai to ratify
lie proposed alterations, will lie more wise than
in reject them. It w prohablo wo think, that
botli the ssenalc and House «.f Ucpreseiilalivus,
under the propo'-cd change, will, be too large, and
we should not have licet sorry had au arrange

]lnuses will bo too large under tile [deposed rc-
duciioti, they must be admitted to betsfiKmbre-so,
muler the present orgarifzaiioti. There will very
evidently be great effortsmado to prevent, if pos
sible, the ratification by the people of the meas
iocs of die convention,’ bud there would probably
have been efforts made to defeat the ratification
of any other plan ili a might have been, recom-
lucuded ; for that plan that w ould have met with
bo opposition, must Irivo been more perfect than
hum in sagacity could have formed it.. Were wo
a?koti, if we supposed there could no substantial
object ions lie made to the measures proposed by

h.iv to occupy, wo mu,i accept, or reject ivlial is
jirvoutri to us. .It is by uo.aicuoscertain, if we
vouiiiiue the legislature a year or two longer ns
unwieldy as it now is, with an expectation of ba
vin; it after tin;* period reduced; that uuy plan
uf reduction wijj fcveu then l»o agreed to, more
i::itxrepii<iuable' than the one now offered for
consideration. IVc therefore, as wc before inti

THE CiJEftoKEHS.
We learn, from a source entitled to the high
est credit, that the attempts to prevent n treaty
with the Chcrokees, under tlio.preicucc that they
Would lie ficiiCfitted hy the act for the collection
of th? revenue, have resulted in. a powerful re
action :u favor of q Treaty. The enemies t f tlie
President, at Washington, affirmed that this re
venue law would prevent rt treaty: a portion of
our representatives iu Congress, on their return
to.tho State, gave currency to the same charge
against the administration: and Hass, the prin
cipal Cherokee Chief, played a corresponding
-part among his countrymen. Hut the President,
with’ his characteristic frankness, and decision of
character, has shewn, to the Chcrokees, their-re
al situation: and a largo majority of that hither
to deluded .pqople, :ir<v new convinced, that if
they remain within the chartered liwiis of (Geor
gia, they must submit to her Jans. At the soli-
ciotlicn'-tif Uoss, and his partisans, the other
Cliiefii have consenti-d to: postpoue making a
treaty, until the meeting cf Cqugrcss : and to pre
vent any pnnectssrry dclay’aficr that time, an

The Ckctokccs.—TUis enemies of Cctr
Jackson and of tbo Union, the mi differs of
Georgiaj liave been endeavoring to delude the
Cherokee's into the belief that the opinions of
the President in relation to their rights had
changed, and that he would note sustain them
in jElioir opposition to the. laws of that State—
that the Fbrccf Bill wodld enable theiri id carry
on their opposition. Their object, wc suppose,
was to create, a difficulty with the Indians, ami
thereby, to gain proselytes to their doctrine.

vile intentions so completely frustrated by the

umph of its opinions: it is quite the contrary
The friends of America will rejoice when they*
see both parties auimajed bv a spirit of concil
iation. It is in (his point o'f view that the pat
riots of Europe consider this business. They
would wish to contrast the internal policy of
the United States with the violent measures,
for instance, that the British Ministry have
lately proposed in Parliament with regard to
Ireland. They would wish to be able to say—
‘Bee the difference between the political sys-'
.trun of (he U. States and that of the European
Governments, oven of those who pretend to act
( upon principles uf liberalism!’ This view of
.the subject is of great importance, and ought to
strike our citizonf of all parties and of all o-
pinions. It is right that there should be a di
versity of sentiment respecting State Rights on
the one hand, ami the powers of the National
Government on tae other; this is necessary for
the maintenance and preservation of the C-n-
stituthm. ,'But tho tiling must not be enrri d too

At a time like the present when intolerpneo'
and superstition are shedding their baneful ir.fltt-
euec over the fairest portions of tho globe—when
priestcraft aud delusion threaten the destruction
of our inestimable privileges—it becomes tho
friends of libcrtyjto be up aud doing. That there
exists amoug the priesthood a determination to
hriug us into boudage, will "scarce be doubted by ’
any wtio are blessed with reason. Their exer
tions are 'untiring and incessant—their numbers
almost countless—their publications as niimcrouu
as the locusts iu Egypt—anil unless they aud

lance, equal zeal and activity, hy the friends of
religious freedom,’ our glorious fabric will be iu
