From Widin, the Turks have made an inclusion into Walla chia, and the Russian General Geismar has l)een driven back wards from Crajova to Nlatina. He made several attempts to rally his retreating legions, but they could not withstand the impetuous charge of 23,000 Turkish horsemen. He lost 6000 men, 40 pieces of can non, all his magazines & 6,000 head of horn cattle. These e vents took place on the lntli, 19th and 20th of August. ‘I lie Ticks attacked, for the first time, a square of Russian in* fantry, and penetrated it. Chunda Varna are still in the hands of 4 their legitimate masters, $ the ambitious Rus sians shrinks from the attempt to force the passes of the Hal kan. tfrotn Chunda the Turks have made a successful sally, and made themselves masters of the redoubts which the Rus sians ueie kind enough to con struct for them. Amongst the Russians killed is Gen. Wrede. On the 2d Sept, the Czar left Odosa for Varna, which place lie intends to take hv storm on the moment of arrival. AOer which he returns to St. Peters htt!g to pass the winter, U av ii a his armies to enjoy them (ves in Turkey ns well as t! < v can. ‘Their situation is far fr cotufoi table. Defeated at C lU’nla and ai Varna, worsted at Rozarrie and feilistria, repul *ed at Widin and at falafat, cheeked along their w’‘ole line of operations, they are to take tip their winter quarters in the enemy’s country, under very dLadvantageouscirconistances.

Sir —On the 3 1st of August, six sol fliers of this command had a‘pass* to go to the Kiamerh, for the purpose of fishing. Corporal Thomas Gloyd j and musician Glenn, preceded the party about 50 yards. At the dis tance of six miles from the ’post, those who were in the rear, heard the re j port of a gun, accompanied with an Indian yell, and also the exclamation *()h God, lam killed!’ Knowing that neither Gloyd nor Glenn, had a gun. their followers were (onvinred that they were attacked by enemies, but an intervening knoll screened them from their sight. They immediately teturned to Garrison, and on a report |of the facts, a command of 50 men was ordered out by Major Birch un der Lieut. Casey. They returned with the corpses of Gloyd and Glenn. ! —The body of the former was marked with a hall, and many arrows, that of the latter by arrows only. The a- Iftn.i was immediately given to the citizens, and friendly Indians encamp e-d in the neighborhood of the Garri son; and an the following morning, a party of about 40 r.rmed men, con sisting of citizens and friendly Indi ans, and a detachment from this Post, pursued the oneiny, and on the 4th day returned with the ecalps of the soldiers killed, and those of three In dians, also with the bows and equip ments of fifteen.— They found the In dians encamped about 80 miles from the Garrison, near the Blue water ri ver. They rushed upon them sudden ly, while they were darn ing around the scalps of Gluyd ami Glenn. They were near a thi ket, through which some escaped, but it is believed not many without mortal wounds. They were Pawnees. The only one of the opposite party who was injured; was JVi-coming, a Delaware Chief, who rec* ived .n arrow wound in his thigh. He i now doing well. The reduced number of regular s Idiom at this Post, rend’ red it impossi ible to furnish a large detachment. Aod much credit is due to the citi zens, f>*r the readiness with which ‘hey volunteered their sert ices; and also to Mr \ldrtch, the Suttler, who roue the wtede night to muster them.’ We understand, that an official re presentation of the facts relative to •be foregoing outrage, has been made to the Governor, and that he immedi ately, issued a General Order to the Colonel ranimanding the militia of Miller county, requiring him to have his forces in readiness to co-operate with the United States troops at Can tonment Tow son, at a moment’s warning, in case a repetition of the aggression should be attempted by the Indians. An order was likewise for warded to the commanding Officer of I the Militia of Hempstead county, re quiring him to have the militia of his county iu teadiness, in case their ser vices should he required.

CABINET. ti ARBhWTOX. M)V. 15, , B o ß> t£T 1 he Methodist Episcopal Churches , in VV arren Circuit, deeply impressed with the innumerable blessing- bestowed upon them Dy a protecting and beneficent Prov idence, have set apart the ensuing FRI DAY as a day of Humiliation, Fasting, and Piayer. 0 Hf* The Legislature of Georgia, on the 15th inst. elected Wm.

It is a gem of pure water, but too large for our little ( abinet: we have therefore broken it into parts, but we hope enough of its briF liancy has been preserved to attract at tention. > After congratulating our Legislature so& the many blessings which an indulgent Providence has bestowed upon us as a State, bis Excellency informs us, ‘that the lice of demarcation between this State and Florida has nut been traced. The discu3- siua of the subject in the Senate of the L T . States was postponed until it could be as- cei tained whether or not an agreement al leged to have been made by Andrew Eiii cott and the Spanish commissioner, ap. pointed to run and maik the line, was a inong the archives of the Spanish govern ment-’ The existence ol thi* document is said to be matter of surmise, and can/ ot even if produced, throw any additional lighi on the controversy. In the House <f Repies** itatives the commrfee adopted a con. lotion adverse to tht claims of the State, but which remains to be disposed >f at the ensui-ig se9S on of Congress. The deci-ion of that body, however, if not ap proved by the State will not be consider ed obligatory. The act of this State in relation to the bnunda.y line between her and has been protested t>y the latter. Notwith standing * hi**, we flatter ourselves that the. controversy in relation to each wil’ speed ily terminate, and that the claims of Geor, gia wi l be duly recognized. As regards the Chetokee Lands, a mea sure < quaily just and Überal in its opera tion. is j> up *ed. Hi* Excellency reoom n. ids the extension of all the laws of the State over the territory lying within our. limits—“ The I dmns to be subject as oth- er person* to the operation of those laws; to secure to the 1 urban*. immediately, the enjoyment of aM civil lights; to grant to eacti Indian family now imng in the State, while they continue io it. a sufficient bo dy ot iai-ri to* their comfortable support, looking to the gene al government under I the compart ot 1802 for the value of the i I;:n > Ihur srianted, aud for all the expen -1 ■ ‘ tu t may bfi incurred by the State in uie * ouiion o’ 1 h promised enactments. As an evidence ot r e , *p**-ctful Reference to <be United States, anil of our determina tion to treat with tendrness the Chero kees wh .se fate is to be e'fected by thpse regulations, l recommend that the opera tion of the act he prospective—not to take etl'ect until the President of the CJ. States shall have ample tune to ascertain wheth. er the Cherokee* choose to remove for a just equivalent, nr to remain aod to submit them-elves to the authority of the State govt ament. V>u will find in the con tiact uadt by the President of the United St;t<es and the Arkmsas Cherokees, here with submitted, a motive for this delay.” > he policy here is just and benevolent. The mot fastidious moralist or corset-bound Utopian, cannot object to r, either on the score of equity or human ity. Ihe rights of each party are fully recognized; if any be conceded, they are ours. Since the extinguishment of the Creek title some depredations have been com muted in Lee county by parties of that tiihe. Ihe United States are bound to indemnify the looses sustained. Enema'h meut-i have also been made, near the Chat tahoochee, by one of the same tribe in the erection of extensive, works, the execu tion of which has been forbidden by the Executive as inconsistent with the rights of the btale. ° tor the purpose of limiting within con* bounds our acts of” legislation as the) stand in rcl irion to the dicretion aiy power *f Congress, his Excellency advises a repeal .f the *ci of l f !08, ced ing to the Federal government jurisdic tion over all places which may be there of r acquire , by the U. ‘'tales for the pui. pose of er< cing forts or fortifications, &c. His Excehency ip averse to an abandon ment of the Penitentiary System. The partial failure of the institution he attrib i utes 10 St *veral causes—the most promin ent of which, he thinks, i the insufficien cy ol the buildings proposed for thepur p°se. He urges the serious attention of the Legislature to this subject; and also, as lu'imati ly connected therewith, a bet ter organization of onr Penal Code, which, proves to very defective. An entire revision of our Svstem of In ternal Improvement is likewise recom mended. £271,000 have been appropria ted and partially expended-on the naviga ble waters of the State. Under the exist*
