prevent the emigration of their miserable
serfs. The manner in which this is ef
fected, exhibits the true character of the
moral and political improvement claimed
for these savages, and proves the extent
of the calamity which i* likely -o over
take them by the extension of the laws of
a civilized people over their country,
by which the poor will be protected, and
the despotic power of the privileged and
.ambitious few, curtailed. The picture
exhibited in there documents. Will
have the beneficial effect perhaps of
convincing the well meaning but mis
taken friends of the Indians, either of
necessity and mercy of a change of the
laws under which such atrocities are
committed, to those of a state which will
prevent, them, and afford just protection
to the meanest of a removal
to a region where he will be under the
immediate protetion ofthe General Gov
ernment. It must be evident that the con
dition of people thus exposed, to
be beaten with clubs and stones, mutilat
ed, and murdered by the influence of
the Chiefs, under color of law,for mere-,
ly expressing the intention to remove, is
such as to claim protection, and it will
be afforded.
Mr. Johnson, in conclnsion of his re
marks in the House of Representatives
ofthe Uniied States on the subject of
printing the report on Sundny mails, us
ed the following energetic language:
‘Since l have been compelled to address
you, let me ask what it is that renders the
institutions of our country different from
those of our fathers! It is that in this free
land, the thoughts of the humblest citizen
are not to be manacled and fettered, nor
pumshed, whether orthodox or not.
Mine are not to be—and they never have
been; they never shall be. In the faithful
discharge of my duty, in such a cause as
this, I care not Mr. Speaker, for conse
quences. Were the whole univers array
eu against me, so far as my own opinions
and conduct are concerned. Numbers are
not to intimidate me, or turn me from my
purpose. I should remain, sir, as unchan
ged, standing, alone as if the whole hu
man family, from the b ginning of time
down to the present day, flattered me
with their applauses l trust, sir, the

The above parragraph reminds us
of a circumstance which took place
last winter at MiUodgeville. Acer
tain individual of this State had a pa
per (we know not by what name to
call it—a petition or memorial or
something of the kind) in his own be
half, which was presented to a large
number of the members of the Legis
lature, for their signatures, recoin
friending the aforesaid individual, to
president Jackson for some lucrative
office. # We did not have the pleasure
of seeing the instrument ourselves but
we were informed that it modestly as
ked* for no particular office, hut for
any that would prove lucrative to the
gentleman. This may seem incredi
ble, but we believe it to be intirely
true. Many of the members signed
it, amongst whom were some, who at
one period entertained for the man, a
most sovereign contempt and had but
a short time back, either contributed
to, hr rejoiced at his being turiiid Out
of a lucrative office in his own State

unworthiness. —Columbus Enquirer.,
The Pennsylvania Baptist Abso**
ci.vrioN, for missionary purposes
have recently presented a memorial to
CoT’geess praying the removal of the
Indians West of the Mississippi* to
preserve them from total extermina
tion In reference to the proceedings
on the subject in some of the Eastern
and Middle States they say;-
4. Your memorialists have noticed
with regret that appeals have recently
ftceutnade to the sympathies of the
public in vafiotrs places*, end petition
presented to your honorable body, in
favor of the long established system.—
They fully believe (hat such philan
thropists have mistaken the true in
terests ofthe Indians.”
In conclusion* they express the be
lief, that the ‘lndians will cheeifully
consent to the measure, so soon as
they understand that it is entereu upon
with system, and under assurances
upon which they can rely; especially
when the cry of ‘cruelty* towards
them, which they had heard, shall
have been silenced by an exhibit of
convincing facts.’
The editor of an Eastern paper af
ter denouncing in general terms, the
evils resulting from Lotteries, cites
the following particular instance of
ruin to an individual by an over aoxi
ety to procure a fortune without work
ing for it. The case is doutless
one only of many:—
“ Mr. 11. a respectable mechanic
living in a neighboring town, had ac
cumulated property to the amount of
a thousand or twelve hundred dollars.
He was industrious, contented and
happy. In an evil hour, he yielded
to the persuasions of a friend and
bought a portion of a package of tick
ets. One of the tickets drew a small
prize, and Mr. R. received five or six
iiuudrcd dollars as his share. This
money was invested in tickets, and he
drew another prize. He now went on
in the purchase of tickets with various
success for several months, when one
of his tickets turned tip a prize of a
thousand dollars. This good fortune
intoxicated him. He neglected his
business, and engaged extensively in
the purchase of tickets. Now mark
what followed, lu less than eighteen
months from the purchase of his first
ticket, he was striped of every cent he
possessed, and his family were without
shelter—without a place to lay their
heads. iY. F. Gaz.

||There is mm li originally a id quaint
ness of expression in the following ex
tract from a stump speech of a candid
ate for the Legislature in one of th
Western States: Born’ said he, “in
a cane break, cradled in a sap trough,
my zeal for independence has grown
to maturity, without being choked by
the weeds of education.’*
A remarkable instance of religious
tolerance lias recently occurred in the
Cn of Til organ, in Switzerland. At
Romaushorn the Catholics and the
Protestants united for rebuilding the
village church and purchasing the
bells The Catholics, out of respect
to the Protestants, placed their altars
in the hinder part of the edefice, and
removed niany of the ornaments of
their worship; and the Protestants on
their side, built at their own expense a
sacristy for the Catholics. The con
secration took place on the 15th of
November, whs really a festival of
concord and Christian charity

conversation heard in Broad street, in
Boston, by one of the visitors of the
poor. In one corner of a room, occu
pied by an Irish family there was an
old straw bed, in which was a little
hoy, whom the mother was covering
with some rags on the top of which she
placed an old door.- 1 Mother* said the
boy, ‘how do poor folks make out this
cold weather, who have no doors to
lay on their bed!’

Is it dear? It cannot be dear at any

Will it break? When it is broken by

What is beauty? A key to the

for many more.
Can I buy it? Not the thing itself,
but you may buy the person who has
it.

PROPOSALS
For publishing at Columbus, Georgia,
A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER,
tO BE ENTITLE^
THE
SOUTHERN EXAMINER.
rTMtIS rapid settlement of the country
J|_ west of Flint river, and the growing
importance of the town of Columbus, have
induced the subscriber to issue proposals
for the publication of an additional News
paper ift that plaice.
Aware that professions and promises
made in a Newspaper Prospectus usually
pass either for nothing, or for more than
they are worth, the subscriber says but
little in relation to the course intended to
be pursued. Opposed to constructive pow
ers of the National Constitution, and to
every invasion of State Rights, it shall be
the constant exertion of the Examiner to
throw the weight of its influence into the
Republican scale; and the talents of the
Editor will ever be employed in defending
the rights and privileges so dearly pur
chased & bequeathed to us by our fathers
Friendly to the present Administration of
the Union, and to that of our own State,
he will cordially support them in such
measures as he believes to be correct
His object will not be to excite political
strife, but when he shall deem it necessa
ry to engage in the struggles of party, the
influence of his press will be given to that
side, whose principles appear most con
genial to our Republican Institutions, and
whose measures sefem most conducive to
the public good. None, however, need
expect the privilege of using the columns
of his paper, to gratify selfish views or
malicious feelings- Defamation and per
sonal irfvective in every shape, will be
shurined, fcs the bane of the press which
pretends to claim the patronage of an en*
lightened and virtuous people.
The business of the Editor will be
to place before his reader, unperverted,
undisguised TRU EH. In Short, ‘all that
can serve to instruct or to amuse, all that
is calculated either to enlighten the un
derstanding, or improve the heart, shall
be eagerly sought after,* to adorn the co
lumns of the Examiner. With these
principles, the subscriber comes before the
public, soliciting only that patronage
which his exertions may merit.
