'V* publish io-dny n lull account of the Execu
tive Proceedings of the Government of the United
Slates iu relation to the late negotiations with the
Greek Indians, in which the rights and interests of
Georgia are deeply involved.
DARIEN BANK.—We learn from the Darien
Gazette of the 6lh instant, that the Bank of Da
rien has recently burnt nine hundred and thirty
thousand dollars of its bills, $600,000 of which
were drawn in while under the management of
the. old Board of Directors, and tho balance under
the new Direction. The same paper adds—' We
are informed, and believe correctly, that there
Ire not over $200,000 of its bill* now in circuit*
tlon: thus It is reasonable to predict a speedy re
suscitation of its mfairs, and that it will, if allow
ed to pursue, unmolested by legislative interfe
rence, the course It has adopted, soon rai;e itself
V 1 * 0 fl » high repute as if ever was.”
The Friendly Creeks.—Col. Chilly McIntosh
with four other. Chiefs ol his Nation, arrived at
Cheraw, S. C .on the 29th ult. in the northern
stage. The editor of the Cheraw paper, who was
introduced to Col. M. says— 1 “Wo were much gra
tified by the opportunity It gave us of conversing
with liimi he is«n intelligent man. and acquaint
ed, we should think, with creek Polities. He
spoke with considerable warmth of indignation
of the fraudulent attempt of Ridge and Vann to
"feather their own nest” af the expense of the
Tribe, in the late treaty; and, we confess, we are
disposed to share with them in that indignation.
We believe it a scandalous transaction on tire part
of Ridge and Vann: we were pleased, however,
to find from Mr. McIntosh, that his party Was sa
tisfied with the provisions of the treaty—indeed
be said esprcssly that it provided all they asked
f06—to our question whether the treaty would
not probably have* the effect of reconciling the
hostility of the two parties in his nation, be an
swered promptly, «He bad no doubt of it.” When
Wo alluded to the death of bis father, and hi* own
escape, he spoke with much emotion, and evinc
ed throughout the interview,traits,as we thought,
of an honorable and manly mind- The nnmes of
his companions are Benjamin Dindsaw, Sar-nar-
way, Ni-bar-vac-ho-lar and Behjamin Hawkins.”

Un tlie question to agree' to the lesiiht* , ject for shaking rain from Iht heavens.]
' For rain, to leaven our fathers pray’d,
When kindly showers were few;
Deareage, l humbly ask your a>d,
Just now, lo wet my sun-scorched. Beady
With-ram; or mist, or deW.
Or shake (be heaVins, gVedfS-— d.now.''

Shake down soipe rain!—I care not bOW—

That be who doth one oat-stalk raise'
Where nothing grew before, displays
More wisdom, and deserves there praise'
Than if a bobk he wrote.
Now Ifyou cbtrld blit shake KeloW
Some drops for spring tb drink,
How many pumpkins fat would owe
Their lives to yottr, best skill, and grow
That you might'eat them too, 1 trow?
I pray you, S- d, think.
And'then all modestly we might,
If learned men approve,*
Call you the “cloild compelling" wight—
A name by which none e’er wa:. bight
