Tn Floyd county, near Dirt Town,on the 7th inst. a party of Indians assem bled no doubt with a design of murder, ing a family of ®ur white citizens by the name of Moore. As fortune would nave it, however, their nefarious inten. tions were overheard by an Indian wo. man, who being friendly to the family, communicated them, just in time for their intended victims to escape. Af ter the Squaw had made known their designs, and that they were then on their way to execute them, the family had scarcely hastened from their pre mises, before the Indians an ived; and on finding that they had fled, mortified from disappointment, they tore and broke up every article of furniture a hout the house. These Indians were all ot the R >ss party. We think that every individual free from prejudice will admit that the Governor has act ed advisedly in establishing a guard for the protection of our peacable citizens against such daring outrages. Even if a guard were not essentially necessary, the fact that the Governor kas ordered it, in obedience to a re solution of the last Legislature, and on the solicitation of the citizens of this country,should not subject him to the slightest animadversions. If fault is imputable to any, it is to the last Legis. lature, not to the Governor. What el»e could he have done, when author ised by thejast Legislature to order a guard, and now requested by the constituents orthose whoauthorized him and by some ofthe members themselves to do so? He would have been recreant in dutj, had he nAt have extended over the citizens of this country,that protec tion which he is empowered and au thorised to do, when existing circum. stancesso imperiously require it. What possible ®tate of affairs that the last Legislature could have foreseen would exist in this country, which Xould have rendered a complyauce by the Gover nor with their resolution, authorising him to order a guard, more necessary, than that which now exists? We answer none. Our white citizens need pro tection; Indians friendly to the policy of the State,need protection; and the Governor had no other alternative, whether he considered it necessary or not, but to afford it te us. It is well known that nothing would have such a tendency to keep hostile lndian s under such awe and restraint, asa standing and regular guard: and we are conscious of needing their protec tion; though the Nullifiers say that with them the case is different. They can and de shield themselves from mo lestation very effectually we know, by their close connection and intimacy with John Ross and his friends, and it is somewhat ungenerous in them to a buse us, because we do not choose to purchase our own safety by such an al liance. They are rather degenerat ing, we fear, from that noble daring & warlike spirit, which characterized them in the days of yore, such as the chivalrous appearance and threatening aspect which they presented in South- Carolina, a year or two since, & which now reminds us of the renowned feat of Don Quixotte when the lion. Those days have passed howe ver, and they now prefer peace. The bare mention of a guard in arms and warlike preparations, much less the sight of one, is terrific. We have at our Office a very remar kable curiosity, being the heads and horns of two Bucks, the bores inextri cably interlocked, so that iio -art or force can seperate without breaking them. The deer which was of uiiusu sual size, were found on John’s Island a few days ago, dead, with.(heir'lwriis thus fastened together, having been engaged in a furious encounter.* The skulls are in perfect preservation; and it is the intention ofthe Gentle man who left them at our office to send them to France, for the satisfaction of some of the savants there who had heard, but doubted of such * things. We have seen in the Beaufort Library a similar specimen, taken from two bucks who were found alive, on the beach of Eding‘s Island, and killed with a stick,in the defenceless state to which they had reduced themselves. The specimen mentioned above may be seen at this Office for a lew days. Charleston mercury. . COL. R. M. JOHNSON. The falsehood and unblushing auda city of the federal press,seems to know no bounds. The Bank must become bankrupt if it pays but half the premi um which in the corrupt mat ine courts of Europe, is allowed for testimony of that class of that kind of evidence termed “damned souls,” whose office it is to swear to whatever their clients dictate, fora shilling each suit. The following extract from a letter to the editor ofthe Albany Argus, by a highly respectable citizen, of Col. Johnson, will show how much truth there is in the “ Dusky Sally" story ot the federalists of 1835. The writer is the Hon. Thomas J. Pew.; West Point, June 6, 1835. To the Editor ofthe Argus* Sir—ln the “Newburgh Telegraph” of the 4th inst. 1 observe an article! designed for a reply to- the attacks of the opposition on the domestic re ations of Col. Johnson: The paragraph in question, which was evidently well merit, assumes it to be true that gentle man is really a married man and likely to suffer much humiliation from these outrages of the newspapers. As other journals entertain similar impressions, I think it but an act of justice o rectify them, and to state fortheir information that Col. Johnson never was married, —and that he has no wife, or. reputed wife. The female about whom these li bels have been written haslongsince pas' sed that “bourne from whence no travel ler returns”—and is not therefore,under any circumstances, a fit subject for newspaper coriiroversy. The discussi on can conduce nothing to the public in struction,or add to the benefit of private morals. The editor of the Telegraph I am sure, will correct the erroneous impression with the utmost satisfaction. ’ V ■ f - ■ ■■— « JUDGE SCHLEY’S CONSTITU TIONAL OPINIONS. It is known to our readers, that Judge Schley was employed some years since by legislative authority, to compile a digest of the English statutes in force in the State of Geor gia which work he completed and re ported te the Governor in November, 1825. In the body of that work,under the head of “Notes on Magna page 57, will be found his epinion upon our Constitution and iorm of government, which we publish to-day, for the pur pose of silencing the charges of feder alism and consolidation which are rin ging through the country from the or gans of nullification; and of placing his constitutional opinions before the public, in their true light. It will be borne in mind by our read ers, that these opinions have net been manufactured at short notice, to suit the present hour, but that they were deliberately committed to record as long as the year 1825; and that too, when he could have felt no induce ment, personal or political, to impose upon the public, doctrines and princi ples not his own. “After the termination of the war, and, and when, by the treaty of 1783, England had acknowledged the inde pendence of the states, it then became necessary that they should agree upon, and settle some form of government, and establish certain fundamental prin ciples upon which it should be minis tered. This, at first view, would ap pear to be no easy matter, when we reflect on the various and conflicting in terests by which the different sections of the country were actuated. But a people who had been united in the cause of liberty against a common ene my, and had obtained their object by the combined exertions of all,%ei e not disposed to endanger the union, by a pernicious adherence to every right and benefit, which they would have been willing, under other circumstan ces, to have inssited upon. It was n. • cessary in the formation of the fede ral government, that each state should give up a part of its sovereignty, dele gating to this general government such powers as were necessary for iu eiit- fence, and to enable it efficiently to sus tain its own dignity, and to protect the individual states. This was accor dingly done by the original framers of the constitution, and their acts were ratified by the states. But, neither the convention who formed, nor the states who ratified this constitution, had the most distant idea, that the doctrine of constructive powers would be earned to the alarming extent, contended for by some politicians of the present day; and which threatens the destruction of state rights, and state sovereignty. If this doctrine be persisted in, and no remedy provided for the evil, the fede ral government, like Aaron’s rod, will swallow up the state government, and a final consolidation of the whole, will put an end to that beautiful system of liberty which is now the pride and boast of the free people of If there is a man;claiming to be the disciple of Washington, Jefferson and Madison, who does not yield a willing assent to the views embodied by Judge Schley in the above extract, he is not of the true faith. That the nullifiers will reject it,wej do not question, because, so far as we | understand them, they deny all powei '■ to the general governmen, when in con-1 flict with a state. To such as have I given themselves over to this newl creed, it is in vain to speak; but to the men of the constitution, who .still think it better than nullification, we now ad dress ourselves,- and ask them a fair comparison between the opinions of Judge Schley and those ofthe sound, old school republicans; Let every candid man read it ? and tell us, if there is any thing in il, of federalism or consolidation?
