Ifjrthe deceitful Editor ol the Richmond Enquirer

|are told that the past measures of the President to
■preserve the Union were adopted by him under the
Belief that they were the true principles of the Con
■stitution. and such as he believes will meet their ap-
Iprobation. No fear of that. They are perfectly
■well satisfied with the speech. It serves their pur-
Bi oses to a nicety. It would have been dangerous
land fatal to their scheme to come out too boldly at
tec. The Proclamation only served to strengthen
■he wisdom of the two-sided policy of the Arch ma
gician. Let him alone and he will throw a veil of
Bnehautmcnt over the w hole Union.

thrown himself into the lap of his bitterest enemies ?
It is a most unnatural connection, but straqge as it
may appear the ceremony of union has been per

Who are those most active in procuring an ex

the Proclamation in every quarter of the Union ?
Aie tnc; not the old Federalists who fought by the
side of the elder Adams and Alexander Hamilton in
connection with the converts which that fraudulent,
jesuitical and insidious State paper has made ? The
federal presses term with commendations of the high
toned principles of the Proclamation and hail the
conversion ot the Executive to the doctrines of the
federal party, whilst their columns are overflowing
with the reports of public meetings laudatory of its
firmness and orthodoxy. Our leader has basely be
haved his standard and gone over to the enemy, and
wo trust bo will in time to come share the fate of all
deserters, to lie shunned and contemned bv those
whom his treacherous revolt was designed to aid and
assist.
Ihe extract wc make below is taken from a
speech of Mr. liivcs, whilst a member of the House
of Representatives of the U. S. in the year IStiS, up
on the famous retrenchment bill, the promise of
w bich in the administration of the government elec
ted Gen. Jackson. How will the language of that
speech compare with the views of Mr. Rives upon
the power of Congress to pass the enforcing bill ?
1 he language of the extract is admirably well suit
ed to the present crisis, and had we been in the Sen
ate gallery during the time of the delivery of his de
fence of the principles of the enforcing bill,we should
have tied this extract with a band of green ribbon
and tossed it down his throat. It would have given
him the convulsions. We beg the reader to mark
the tone of his sentiments then and weigh them in
the balance with his present opinions.
Extractfaom the Speech of a distinguished Senator
on a great occasion.
“These, Sir, are some of the causes of that spirit of
distrust and dissatisfaction which now universally pre
vail. But they are not all. The present Chief Magis
trate is hardly warm in his place before he proclaims,
fiom the seat of authority, doctrines in relation to (lie
powers of this Government, incompatible with every no
tion of a limited constitution, and which threatens the
rights of the States, and the liberties of the people, with
total extirpation; and after baling thus, by a lawless
construction, indefinitely extended the powers of the
Government, of w hich he forms a part, he seeks to ap
propriate to himself the largest share of the spoil, bv
ire', .RWvt-e WHWfc
him, in a time of profound peace, and when there was
every reason to expect a speedy extinction of all grounds
of controversy heedlessly threatening a sovereign mem
ber of the Union with the military force of the nation, of
which be is theoretically at least, the commander in
chief.”
NOMINATION'S.
It is said that the President sent in the names o!
a whole host of nominees to office, all his kith and
kin, besides many others whose jinnies began with
Jackson, with that of P. V. Daniel of who
has been worsh ipping his idol, the old Hero, lof a
long time, having an office in expectancy. It was he
who met the Prrsident at Oid Point Comfort and a 1
every respiration of his master, lie would exclaim,
what elegant manners!” None of these nomina
tions were confirmed, at which wc learn the Presi
dent is furious. How was Peter V. aflbctcd ? Did
he tear oft'his cue, dishevil his braided hair, and
dash his tortoise shell comb against the ceiling ?
The old Puritan would have acted Cromwell over
again had he had it his power.
Georgia ami Site Clierokees.
DCp One of our delegation in Congress has writ
ten us that the Clierokees have refused the liberal
terms offered them by the government for their
lands and have returned to, their homes to consult
their people, since the passage of the “Force” Bill.
They look upon that bill as a favorable augury that
they can have their entire wishes satisfied, if they
hold out. * Georgia may yet be put to the sword.
She may yet be compelled “to stand to her arms”
in defence* of rights violated by the passage of the
Enforcing Bill. We extract the following remarks
from the Richmond Times and Jeffersonian:
Ed. Times.
“Mr. Forsyth, we incline to think has played his cards
nadlv. Unless he can get some appointment under the Ad
ministration he is likely to have it in his power to ruminate
in quiet over the errors of the past. He has dexterously ma
naged in the Bloody Bill to point the dagger of the Federal
Government at the breast of his own State, on the Indian
question. Webster and the Clierokees, it is said, took him
in. We shall see whether Jackson will take him out. —
There is a laughable anecdote about the matter, going the
rounds. When Worcester and Butler were given huxh-inon
ry to sink their complaints, every body knew the object was
to get Georgia out of the Nullification scrape, in order to
have a fair sweep at Calhoun and South Carolina. Web
ster, in the Committee, put in the sth section of the Bloody
Bill as a sort of noose around the neck of Georgia. Forsyth
saw it, and moved to strike it out, as Georgia nullification
was very acceptable to Jackson and Van Buren. The motion
failed, and as it was understood that the Cherokee delega
tion had concluded to settle ther matters with the ir Great
Father (who has given to all the tribes the same evidences of
his “ paternal ” love, which he destined oflate for his South
Carolina children ,) Mr. Forsyth agreed with himself to sup
port the Bill as it was—as he had some “ paternal" feelings
towards S. C. himself. But as the evil one would have it,
the Bill was no sooner passed, than the Clierokees found
that their lands had a great deal more gold on them them than
they expected; and therefore raised 100 per cent, on their
price—and in case of refusal, asked to take leave. So that
the question is likely to become troublesome, to Georgia yet
and the good people of that State are indebted to their
worthy Senator lor pulling a halter around their necks, with
ouc end in the hands of the Fhrtokttt. Jackson must now
give the priee asked; or otherwise lie must become "jnilenial”
Towards Georgia.”

[For the Flute Rights Advocate.]
Though I have been ranked among the millificrs
of Franklin College, and fed fyoud to acknowledge
that name, yet, never did I intevd to take part in the
newspaper war which has been tarried on for some
weeks past, by different individual on the subject of
College politicians. But from t f C w statements
which I find in the last numberof tfr Federal Union,
1 have been forced, by my pttachtient for truth, to
take up my pen and wield it in device of truth.
The writer in the Union, who has b\en pleased to
honor himself with the title “E Plurißus Uuum,”has
made many assertions of which I wouß say, in the
first place, that there never was a greyer mass of
falsehood amalgamated together bv the ingenuity
of man. °
HE first statement is concerning the meetings
which were held iti the College Chapel «,u tR«
and 19tli of January. Ut these meetings, he slates
as follows: “After a chairman had been appointed
and the house called tojorder, it was proposed that
a committee be appoiiicd to draft resolutions and
to report on the day fojowing &c,” “ this motion”
says he “was debated tijr sometime until finally, the
Nullitiers perceiving a'large majority opposed to
them, the meeting was Irokcn up in a row.” Now
every man who was pit sent at the meeting knows
tiiat to be false, so far Bom being true, that it was
the submissionists, or tlie “ modern tories”'as tliev
liave been very property called, finding they would
be overruled by an overwhelming majority, first at
tempted to break up the meeting, but finding that im
possible, they then in imitation of the great southern
federalist, seceded, and after they had disappeared,
committee were appointed.
Again, he says, “on tlie next day, when the meet
ing was assembled, out of about 100 students about
4,» or 50 were present, a bare majority of whom
voted lor tho resolutions-” This statement is as pal
pably false as the other, perhaps there wore a few
scatterlopers who were not present, yet their pres
ence could have made no change in* the course of
the proceedings. It was sufficient that the students
being oublicklv notified that a meeting would be
field, a great majority assembled, among whom were
a number of the seceders from the former meetin”,
who still following up their principles attempted la
gain to break tip in a row, but finding all their en
deavors abortive, the resolutions were finally adopt
ed by an almost unanimous voice. He savs fur
ther, that “it lias since been ascertained that there
are 35 hi favor of the resolutions, and 63 against
♦hem.” It is well known throughout College that
they attempted to get a majority to sign a list de
nouncing tho resolutions, with a design, I presume,
ol having the list published, but finding it impossi
dle to get even a respectable minority, they abando
ned the undertaking. Disuairme of success in anv
resorted to the press with a long detail of statements,
with the sole design, I suppose of trying what profi
ciency he can make in telling untruths. And if lie
proceeds as lie seems to promise, he will wonderful
ly succeed.
Not only are these things false, but also the state
ment in regard to the endeavors of the faculty to
put a stop to all suck proceedings among the stu
dents. It is well knorn that some of the faculty are
themselves Nullifiers, and have boon heard to say
that the students have as much the right to express
their sentiments on political subjects as any other
individuals. Does tlis seem to indicate a desire to
put down all political deliberations among the stu-
Jc.ots ? True the President made a few remarks on
the ofbirning Gen Jacksons effigy,
the evening obvious lo that occurrence ; but as to
anv attei.mtW ti.f 'amity to take hold of those who
took part in that trailed 1 * on "ith the law sos the
Institution, as the gcntlcmaß have the public
believe, it is altogether false, 1 ft? gentleman wish
es to impress the idea that two were dismissed on
account of that transaction. Several haVP tec*] this
term, but 1 feel confident in asserting that none I'ovc
who were engaged in burning the effigy, tor no stu- i
dent was ever called before the faculty for that, at
all. He lias had the audacity also to say that those
who were engaged in hat scene have incurred the
displeasure of their fellow-students. Perhaps they
may have incurred the displeasure of a few such
men. as his honorable sis, and by the bye, their good
will would never rnakeany -nan President, but it is
an incontcstible fact tint none are held in higher es
teem both by the studcits and the citizens of Athcn s
than the Nullifiers. If is useless to follow the gen
tleman farther; it is evident that his intention was
to impose upon the crelulity,of the public. He has
made all the above qrAcd statements ; calls them
“plain, stubborn, and undeniable facts,” and requests
all editors who are friefdly to truth to give them an
insertion; would t<> Godbc would abide by his own
precepts. But he certainly was noi n under an un
lucky star, the augel of truth was absent when this
wonderful prodigy, this great “L. Piuribts L sum,
first burst upon the world.
I expect nothing less than to lie violertlv assailed
by this descendcnt of “Baron Munchaiscn,” but tiie
only request 1 have to make of him is, when he
speaks again to speak?the truth.

PROSPECTUS OF THE
Herald of the €rolf? Region
A Weekly r»cw*j>:tptr f

Uiix UYf
rgHIE recent organization, and the rapid settlement and iin
provements now going on m that interesting porttou of
tlie territory Georgia, Known ns the rhrrnL..- I2.eii.iry
seem to require that an aiiditiunionni vehicle of public intel
ligence should be added to the number already located in dif
ferent jrarts of our State. For that purpose is the harbinger
of tne forthcoming “Herald” presented.
Its objects will be to furnish to the community in which we
reside, the usual newspaper intelligence, and to its patrons
in otter sections of the Union more remote, such information
in relstion to the mineral wealth, ordinary productions of the
soil,and natural curiosities, with which this section of the
country eminently abounds, as will he both interesting and
instructive. Its location is by far the lichest part of tile Gold
Region, and where nature i:— signally blended the romantic
w ith the sublime, will give it advantages for the accomplish
inent of these objects, to w hich but few can lay claim.
The limited space which may be devoted to politics, will
bo occupied in disseminating w hat we believe to be the old
Republican doctrines of the Jeffersonian school. In this we
shall endeavor to he liberal and temperate. Well written es
says upon all sides of (his subject, when they do not inter
fere with 'he private character of individuals, shall find a
place in our columns ; as will also those ol a literary, scien
tific and miscellaneous description.
With this-very brief exposition of our design, we shall
submit onr work to the public. Upon their decision will de
pend its long continuance, and its final success.
The first number of the “ Herald of the Gold Region,” will
he issued on or about me Win ol .narco uexi.on jTmpcr-roy

scription will he three dollars per annum iu advance, or roea

It must he a desirable rbjeet to both the drawer, and tit*
purchaser, to have a Book of the kind we herewith submit *o
the public; as it embodies in a compress I and iu a portable
form, all tlie memoranda information which both purchaser
and eeller could have, without occular knowledge or from
information dearly purchased, if procured otherwise.
The Book will contain a Numerical list of all the lets drawn
in the different sections of the Land Lottery, excepting such
as are returned third quality ; and if any of the third quality
has any improvement on it, such lot also will be embraced.
To each lot, will ho affixed a letter a, b, or c, which desig
nates tlie quality ; « for the firrl, b for the second, and c for
the third; nail have also attached the Nos. of acres improved
—the drawer’s aame. tho district in which he gave in as
lortun u,- drawer, end tie county in which he re.-ides, and the
Vo. ot his iot, and the district and section iu which it is loca
ted. Whenever a district is not represented particularly,
the reader will learn that all the lots in said district, (as in
the stli and other districts,) are returned third quality—To
each district its boundary is silted, with * me brief, hut appli
cable remarks.
The publishers forbear any further exordium of this, their
“little effort”—prr 1 ring tiiat Its merit ami
speak more audibly its own praise. .Such as it is, (and it is
hoped, it w ill be pronounced .good) is respectiully dedicated
to tlie people of Georgia, by THE FUBLiSHERS.
