ject, and knew his views; and we might be as
sured that if we shonld withdraw our suit, we
| should be discharged without any concession or
| condition, or even an application to the Govern
! or , before many weeks. Mr. Outhbert, another
j gentleman in the confidence of the governor, and
who had also solicited us to withdraw the suit,
told us that he had receceived the most unquali
! fii«d assurance from the Governor, that if we did
so, we should be discharged immediately after :
! ’he adjournment of the Supreme court. Mr. For- i
j syth had called on our counsel, Mr. Wirt for the ;
purpose of bringing about the same object, and ;
i had expressed his full confidence, though he said
i he was not empowered to give any pledge from
i the Governor to that effect, that we should bedis
: charged immediately on the Governor’s receiving ,
i information that no motion would be made before ;
I the court. We at first believed, and have since
] been informed, that Mr. Forsyth was authorized ]
! by the Governor to give Mr. Wirt such assuran- j
Ices.*
Since our release the question has been asked,
what have the rnissii aaries gained by suffering
imprisonment, and appealing to the Supreme
Court * Tiiis inquiry may deserve a reply.
1. Suppose we had gained nothing. Ought
we therefore to repent of having made the at
tempt ? Are we never to make efforts and sacri
fices for the accomplishment of an important ob
ject, without the certainty of success? Or when
we have done it, and failed, are we therefore to
wish we had not done it/ No. If we have
gained nothing else, we have at least gained a
very cheerful testimony of our consciences, that
we hare done what we could, for the prevention of
injustice, oppression and robbery, and the preser
vation of the national faith
2. if we have not gained, we have allcast not
lost the privilege of laboring among the Cherokee
in the work of the gospel,
3. We have gained in behalf of the Cherokee*
a decision of the Supreme Court, which, although
it does not avail for tiie protection of their pies-
J ent rights, may nevertheless have a very impor
tant bearing on their future prosperity—a deci
; sion worth far more than the sacrifices we have
made to obtain it.
[ We do not repent of wiiat we have done. We
. greatly rejoice in it. And now that we are free,
| ’’ gives usAronsolation to reflect tnat we have not
i obtained our freedom by any abandonment ot
i principle, or by ceasing to bear our testimony a
; gainst the injustice of the measures by which
I the Cherokeesare deprived of their possessions.
I V\ e felt it to be due to the cause of justice in an-
I nouncing to the authorities of the state our deter
mination to prosecute the case no further, to de
; clare our unaltered conviction of the correctness
of the principles on which we have acted. Hav
ing made the declaration then; we feel a freedom
which we should not otherwise feel in making it
now.
I We know not but wc shall be considered as
; having used language unjustifiably severe, in this
i communication, respecting the proceedings of
the state of Georgia; but our own vindication
I appears to require that we speak of things as
! ’hey are in our own view. The nature of the
I proceeding by which the deffeiceiess Indians are
deprived of tlieir possessionwbppear to us very
j plain. We wish certainly to avoid oppobrious
ianguage, hut we cannot see why, when we have
felt ourselves called upon to oppose a torrent of
iniquity, wcshould attempt to gloss over that in
iniquity by giving names too smooth to express
\ the truth. And we feel unwilling to retire from
the contest into which we have been led, without
giving our decided testimony against what it is
impossible for us to regard in any other light than
INJUSTICE, OPPRESSION AND ROBBE
RY. Towards the state of Georgia and her au
thorities we are conscious of no vindictive feel
ings. It is our unceasing prayer that her trans
gressions and the transgressions of our eountry
tni n be forgiven, and those judgments of heaven
averted, which there is too much reason to fear.
VV e are yours with much esteem and affection,
S. A. WORCESTER,
ELIZUR BUTLER, i
*We ought, here to say, that Mr. Wirt did not!
give us any advice on the subject, preferring as he !
said, to sustain to us simply the relation of legal j
counsel.
This ietter developes the secret machinery that
was at work to extricate Georgia from her ap
parent difficulty with the Federal Government.
Instead of boldly meeting the crisis armed in
the panoply of State Rights and doubly fortified
by the justice of the cause, our mystical Govern
or, bows the dignity of the State to the humble
attitude of supplication.
This single act ofFx°cutive wisdom, has placed
Georgia in a position that no patriot can look
upon without shame and regret, no citizen con
template without scorn and indignation.
'lnhere are many more things than Solomon enu
merates that task our simple comprehension to its
utmost. That by the by is not very surprising as
we do not lay claim either to his wisdom or his
experience. Among the many problems that
have exercised cur ingenuity however, the fact of
the Federal Union wielding the cudgel in behalf
of his ‘obsolete’ Excellency in the matter of
Turner’s resolutions, wears no little prominence.
Had not the ‘mystical’ personage aforesaid here
tofore so completely cut away by one sweeping
sarcasm, th* whole circle of his ‘few and feeble
auxiliaries’ we should not have been at all sur
prised. The public would have been spared the
the trouble of reading, and we the ink in record
ing our amazement. The Federal Union admits
that there has been a mistake and labors lustily
with the Georgia Journal to prove that nobody
committed it. Mr. Nobody we know bears a
great portion of the minor offences of private
households, but this is the first time that ws have
heard of his placing a sacrilegious hand On the
helm of government. The People should look
to this interloper in the administration of their
affairs. If Nobody fills the Executive chair at
present it U high time that the vacancy should be
nullified, and somebody placed in the empty tsat.
The presentment of the Grand Jury of Rich
mond oounty which wc have transferred from the
columns of the Augusta Chronicle to our own,
is worthy of all praise. YVe hail it as a harbin
ger of that spirit of virtuous indignation which
should pervade a free people, when their instruc
tions have been disregarded, and their rights tram
pled upon by an u nprin-ipled faction. We have
been taunted by the organs of the Clark party as
being averse to the reduction of our Legislature,
simply because wo do not choose to receive it in 1
its present shape and that too from the hands of,
our ancient enemies. But it seems that wo are j
not the only ones whose eyes are opened to the j
machiaveltan art* of those arch intriguants for i
power. The people have commenced an investi- j
gation into the matter for themselves. And what
their judgment will be, there can be no drubt—!
Ge should be glad to see the grand juries
throughout the State follow the noble example set
them by the jury of Richmond.
Extract from the Grand Jury of Richmond
county.
“ The Grand Jury for the county of Richmond,
for the second week of the Tetm, availing them
selves of the right which belongs to them as a
body, to give expression to the opinions which
may be farmed by its members of the acts and
dningg of public men, and public bodies of rnen
within our State; and having had under conside
ration the public acts of the Convention lately
assembled at Mil l‘>dgevil!ed, and the principles
on which that body have proceeded to make and
ordain certain fundamental laws for the adoption
of the good people of this State, hava come to
the unanimous conclusion, that the principles
which have influenced the Convention and the
acts of that body, are in direct hostility with the
spirit of our institutions and laws as a State, and
contravene the very principles recognised by
that instrument, on which our federal relations
are based.
The assumption by the Convention of turrit >
ry and white population, and the right of taxa
tion without equal representation, as principles
to ho for the first time engrafted on the Consti
tution of our State, demands of this body, as it
does of every freeman in the State, an open ex
pression of the indignant feelings which have
been excited by the arrogant assumptions and
wilful departure of the Convention from the pu
rity and simplicity of our republican institutions.
Tlie open violation of the principles on which
are based cur federal relations and Stale institu
tions, by denying to productive labor, through
the medium of human agency, a concurrent re
presentation in the councils of the State, demand*
of this body, to stamp with the seal of reproba
tion, a doctrine, the advocacy of which by Bri
tish interests and British power, gave indepen
dence to a nation.
This Jury do raoft earnestly recommend to
their fellow-citizens, that laying aside all party
considerations, they will, at the proper time, ma
nifest, tlieir just interest and claim to the pure
and unsullied inheritance transmitted to them by
the;r fathers, by refusing to ratify the public acts
of the late Convention at Milledgeville.
TIIE MONROE DINNER.
On the 20th inst., tlie day previously desig
nated to confer on the Hon. J. M. Berrien,
i the honor of a public dinner by the citizens
|of the county of Monroe, as approving his
course in the anti-taritf Convention in No
vember last. A large concourse of freemen
assembled at Forsyth, between 0 and 800 in
number, and partook of a splendid dinner.—
The u: most harmony and good feeling pro
vailed. We have received a copy of the re
gular toasts given on that occasion, which we
publish to-day. The spirit which they ureathe
is worthy the character of the citizens of the
first county in the State—first in point of
population and wealth, and first in the res
pectability and political integrity of its citi
zens. We regret that we have not been fur
: nished with the toasts and sentiments and
addresses delivered : as soon a9they cotne to
hand we will lay them before our readers.—
We heard the meeting addressed by Jndgc
Berrien anti Judge Strong, Gen. R. A. Beall,
and M.B.l.aniar,Esq. andwhich were received
with the most cheering plaudits. This was a
I proud day for the friends of State Rights.—
! There were no proclamation or collar men—
no consolidatiomsts or “ rat-i-fi-cationists to
1 be found there.
REGULAR TOASTS.
Our Country. —Vast in extent, rich in diver
sified natural advantages, blessed with the hap
piest political institutions. The vigilant maiute
nnnee of those institutions in their purity and vi
gour, is the tenure by which alone we may
hope as a people, to hold and enjoy liberty, hap
piness, and the favour of heaven.
The Federal Constitution. —A covenant of U
nion between free and sovereign States, each of
which, in virtue of its sovereignty, is possessed
of the right of preventing, within its limits, all
exercises of power not stipulated !>y that cove
nant; and each of which ceases to be free in pre
cise proportion as it succumbs to federal arroga
| tion of ondelegated power.
The State of Georgia. —The land of our homes,
onr dopes and affections.—With what high de
termination have we ever fought under the ban
ner of Slate Rights, when it has waved over a
field of contest in which her peculiar interests
were at stake?—With what loftier ardour should
we not rush to its rescue, and bear it on to tri
umph, now that it is threatened by the combined
hosts of Consolidation on great and permanent
questions, vital to the interests of tiie whole
! Sou tii?
Our distinguished guest , the Hon. John McPhcr
-1 son Berrien. —Called by the public confidence and
; admiratioh to many high trusts in the service of
: hiscountry, he has ever adorned them all by his
! talents and virtues.—Monroe county will ever be
j proud of the association of his name and services
| with her struggles in thegreatcause of constitu
j tional liberty. .
; Here Judge Berrien made a speech, which we
; expect to publish in our next : at the conclusion
i of which he gave the following sentiment: —
| Mr. Berrien’s toast. —The perpetuation of the
Union and the sovereignty of the States of the
j Confederacy—The one perfect, according to the j
spirit of the Constitution—the other efficient to;
Resist every violation of it. Save us from atar
-1 mists, consolidationisu and office hunters; and
j the problem which reconciles Federal Union
; with Slate sovereignty, though difficult of solu
! tion, may yet be solved.
The right of State interposition against Federal
j encroachments. —lt is the great paramount consor- l
j vative right, without which, all the other right* of!
I the States are merely precarious, and held at the 1
will of the Federal head. —In proportion to its i
transcendantimportar.ee, ought we to be at once
firnrtn maintaining it, and discreet in putting it in
exercise.
The Memory of Washington. —His character
has purified the model and elevated the standard
of human greatness through all coming time.—
In him at length were realised a combination and
perfection which antiquity vainly sought to at-1
tain, and for which the modern age had ceased to
strive. »
The Memory of T'.omas Jefferson. —His fame
the most towering and illustrious that ha« ever
stood forth to the world on the sole pedestal of
civic greatne3*.--How many make a merit of
at once extolling his name and trampling on his
principles.
The Memory of Benj. /VonJrAn.-—Venerable
name,—to honor, which patriotism, science and
philanthropy combine, and bis nco vies with
his country.
The heroes and sages of the Revolution.— Worthy
compatriots of Washington, of Jefferson and of
Franklin bright cxcmp'sis for all who shall in
any age or country erect the standard of liberty a
gainst tyrannic oppression.
Hon. George M. Troup. —A patriot statesman,
whose name issynonimous with ail that is pure,
intrepid and triumphant, in ,ihe maintenance of
the rights and sovereignty of Georgia.
The Memory of Juhn Handotph of Roanoke. —
The splendor and singularity of his genius were
equalled only by the sternness and incorruptibili
ty of his patriotic virtue—The grave has closed
over him at a lime when his country could least
spare a man, the like of whom she ne’er can
hope to see again.
The force Bill. —An act of Legislation by which
our confederate government has assumed to pnt
the sovereign states composing tiie confederacy
on the same footing, subject to be dealt within
the same manner, as hands of insurgents and out
laws—An outrage which, unless rebuked and re
paired by the stern indignation of a free people,
must end in the long run, in consigning the coun
try to eonsoiidation and ruin.
Those of our delegation in the last Congress, who
were true to the cause of State Bights.—Men wor
thy of tse posts they occupied ; worthy of the
highest confidence in the most trying situations.
By the Committe of Arrangements.— The Mem
ory of our deceasedJriend and fellow-citizen, Wil
liam P. Henry.
FRQH THE CHARLESTON MERCURY.
PLBLIC MEETING.
Pursuant to oublic notice, a Meeting of the
STATE RIGHTS AND FREE TRADE
PARI I, was held at the Circus, on Tues
day Evening, to render the tribute of their
respect to the memory of our distinguished
fellow-citizen, the late ROBERT J. TURN
BULL, Estt. The Hon. Henry De as, was
called to the Chair, and W. P. Finley, Esq.,
appointed to act as Secretary. The object
of the Meeting having been staled by the
Chairman, in a brief and affecting address,
upon the melancholy occasion for which it
was convened, the Hon. C. J. Colcock rose,
and in a very impressive maimer spoke as fol
lows viz :
\V e are met to do honor to a deceased friend |
| and able compatriot in our late glorious strog.
| gle. In discharging the duty which has
been assigned to me, I must ask of you a
moment’s indulgence to give utterance to
my own feelings; lor cold indeed must be that
heart which could be content with a mere
formal discharge of such a duty to such a man
—worse than cold must that heart be, which
j having been so often cheered and animated
in the glorious struggle for liberty, by his
bold and powerful efforts in her cause—and
delighted with the sweet intonations of a
voice peculiarly adapted to the diversified
course of his arguments—which would not
freely and spontaneously join in doing hotn
j age to his deeds, and honor to his memory.
It is our duty to bow in submission to the
decrees of Heaven, and we are instructed
that from the severest dispensation of Provi
dence vve may derive some useful lesson of
instruction or find some consolation for our
bereavements—let us endeavor to apply these
truths to our present misfortune, in this
passing effusion of respect and regard, it is
not to be expected that lshould even attempt
to do justice to tlie character of suen a man
as our deceased friend. To complete his
portrait would require not only a more gifted
artist, hut more tunc than such an occasion
can afford. In all that I can say at the pres
ent, 1 well know that I shall find a ready res
ponse in the bosom of every State Rights
man, for he was ‘-the friend of freedom and
the lriend of man.” Highly gifted by nature,*
his mind was greatly improved by the most
arduous and diligent application in his outset
in life.—Thrown upon his own rcaourccs, he
wss indefatigable in the discharge of his pro
fessional duties—and scrupulously correct in
the most minute details of business. By
these means he soon acquired a reputation
for business, and reaped the rich reward of
diligence and virtue. In every department
of life in which he acted he was a useful
man.—But he never sought promotion—on
the contrary, he evinced the purity of his mo
tives l»v publicly declining all office—audit
j was with the utmost difficulty that he could
be prevailed on to take a scat in our late
Convention. Asa politician, I think it is!
not too much to say, he stood unrivalled in
ourStatc—from a combination bfeauseshe
was early led into a more deep research on
political subjects, tiian most of our public
men of his day. lie was charged with having
abandoned his early principles and his partv
—-this must ever be considered by impartial!
judges, as the most honorable trait in bis!
character, and it is that on which I should !
most delight to dwell, were this effort inten-j
jdedasa lasting memorial of his greatness;!
! for, in the language of Mr. Knox, I will ven- j
1 ture to advance an opinion, which some may i
think rather paradoxical, but is nevertheless!
well founded. “The truest patriotism is not!
to be found in public life. Selfish motives!
commonly instignte the noisy votaries of am.
bitiqn and'popularity. But what caninflu-;
ence hitn who serves his country, in the re-!
i tired and unobserved walks of private life f j
i Ills motives must be pure—and he is a pat-!
J riot. Men of fortune and dignity, who dwcl
-1 ling peaceably in the habitation or their fath
ers, set a good example, who endeavor to dis
cover the true source of human happiness—
whoare given to hospitality—ready to assist
with their presence and their purse, in all
| public business and useful charities, —Such
j are truly patriots.”
' Mr. Turnbull had been by fortuitous cases,
i early thrown into the ranksof aristocracy;
brought up »t the feet of Gamaliel, it was not
wonderful that he should have become his
disciple. He was a Federalist of the old
school, but his strong mind as it advanced in
vigor, coon threw off the shackles of early ,
education and habits—be thought for himself,
and in a time of profound tranquility, inves- [
tigated more deeply the nature and structure ,
of our government, the principles of political (
economy—and those sources from which hu.
man happiness may bo derived in civil socio
ty; and with a degree of frankness only e- ,
quailed by the ability which he displayed, .
put forth to the world the recantation of his J
early opinions in that unanswered and unan
swerable production,* which will go down to ,
posterity as the most imperishable monument i
of bis mental power. Then it liras that he I
„ - .. t
•The Crista. I
came forth, like the sun from beneath th*
cloud which for a time obscures his rays only
to add to his brilliancy, brighter and moie
distinguished than ever—nor can these early
aberrations from the true faith obscure his po
litical glorv, more than the faint spots on the
face of that bright luminary, his cffulgency.
But alas he is gone—Turnbull is no more.
Affection sigiis and Carolina weeps; no
more shall we be delighted by the brilliant
strokes of his wit, producing their full effect,
tho’evidently divested of all malice; no more
shall we be instructed by the rich produc
tions of his deep research,or electrified with
the flashes of his genius, which like those of
the lightning of Heaven were felt but could
not be followed. No more shall we hear that
glorious and citcering “(Jo on,” uttered by
lips which arc warmed by the living coals
from the altar oflibertv! But my friends let
us not despair—our cause is just, and the
wise and merciful dispenser ofall good may
raise up some other who animated by his ex
ample, and instructed by his wisdom, nuy
devote himself to the causa with equal suc
cess.
Let me seize on this occasion to say
to you that another contest is at hand, and I
your opponents in full array ; you will soon
be again sailed to the field—anil all that you
have achieved must be done again—The war
against the liberties of man are becoming
more and more desperate and furious—and the
friends of freedom must exert themselves, or
we sink i orever, into tho gloom of despotism.
In conclusion, Judge Colcock submitted
the following resolutions :
Resolved. That while in common with our
fellow’ citizens, we deeply deplore the loss of i
our valued and much tespecied friend and ;
compatriot. ROBERT J. TURNBULL, we
deem it our peculiat privilege and duty, to
pay every tribute of respect to his memory.
Whereas, it is a truth universally adimitid,
that tiie greatest-good results to posterity,
from a true and impartial representation of
the virtues and talents of those men who have
been eminently distinguished in society,
and who by tlieir labours have assisted to ad
vance the prosperity and happiness of man
kind, and secure tlieir liberties from the iron
grasp of tyranny.
Resolved, That a Committe of seven lie
appointed to procure some fit person to wiite
and deliver (at some convenient season,) a
Eulogy on the many virtues of our highly gif
ted anil distinguished friend and fellow citi
zen; and pourtraj in suitable language, his
usefulness as a man—lns piety ns a Christian
—his patriotism as a citizen, and his disin
terested devotion to the cause of liberty and
constitutional Government.
Resolved, As the highest testimony of
our regard and affection for our deceased
friend, that we null one voice declare it as
our opinion, that he was surpassed by no in
dividnal of our party in the ardor and ability
with which he sustained our glorious strug
gle and that we snail ever hold him in onr re
collection as a model of the purest virtue and
patriotism.
Resolved, That in testimony of our high
regard and affection, the States Rights par
ty here do wear crape on the left arm for
30 days, and that the party throughout the
State be requested to join in this testimonial
of our high respect.
Resolved, That wc tender to his brreavpd
family and friends, our sincere and heart felt
sympathy, and that these Resolutions be
published and transmitted to them.
The adoption of the Resolutions was se
conded by Ilis Excellency Gov. Hayne, who,
in an eloquent eulogy, ponr'rayed the high
and spotless character of our deceased fellow
citizen—his ardent patriotism and inestima
ble services. Gov. Hayne concluded by of
fering the following Resolutions, in addition
to those introduced by Judge Colcock, viz :
Resolved, While we affectionately cherish
the memory of ROBERT .1. TURNBULL,
we will continue strennuously to maintain tlie
great principles which he illustrated in bis
! w ritings, and to the establishment of w hich,
his life was devoted.
Resolved, That wc regard the death of
John Randolph, of Roanoke, (almost cotem- 1
poraneously with that of Mr. Turnbull,) as
a great national calamity, and that when two '
such burning lights arc extinguished togcthA
er, it becomes the friends of State Rights to i
exert increased activity and vigilance, and |
to take care that the light of Liberty lie not j
suffered to expire with those, who have so long!
and so faithfully ministeredat her altars. |
The question was then put by the Chair. ’
man, and the Resolutions adopted with the j
most cordial approbation, and without a dis-!
senting voice.
The following Gentlemen were appointed!

viz :-*-Elias Horry, John Magrath, R. Barn-!

We used to be thought Republican, and to
be at least 3000 miles from the fetes and trap,
ping of Royalty ; and the shout* of a degra
ded and enslaved people. But our democra
cy has become strangely diluted, and we are
at this moment not over °.7 miles and a half
from the scene of as much adulation and sy
cophancy as ever the slaves of the old world
paid to the Tyrants that lorded it over them.
We protest, in the name of Liberty, and of
that Democratic simplicity which is now
converted into Royalty and its trappings, a
gainst all this war upon simplicity, and the
dignity of Freemen; and above all, against
that irreverent spirit that would compare the
ertranoe of a mere man, into a City, to that
glorious spectacle when the eyes of the as
sembled universe shall be turned to behold
the glorification of-‘ the Saints made per
fect. "—Nat- Jut.
° o ° We must disabuse ourself of the complaints
of our subscribers at Louisville and Dublin. The
fault does not lie at our door. Our duty is regu
larly and timely performed. We will endeavor
to find where the delinquenoy is, and hope our
patrons will not hav# future caute of complaint, i
