PROPOSALS
puhhshing at Columbu9, Georgia,
A WEEKLY NEWSPAPER,
TO BE ENTITLED
the
SOUTHERN EXAMINER.
THE rapid settlement of the country
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 in that place
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 Examinee 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,
Ik will cordially support them in such
as he believes to be correct
His object will not be to excite political
strife, but when he shall deem it uece&sa*
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 seem 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 invective in every shape, will be
shunned, as the bane of the press which
p e+ends to claim the patronage of an en*
lightened and virtuous people.
The main business of the Editor will be
to place before his reader, unperverted,
undisguised TRUTH. In short,‘all (hat
can serve to instruct or to amuse, all that
is calculated either to enlighten the un
derstanding, or improve the heart, shall
be eigerly sought alter,’ to adorn the co
lu mis of the Examiner With thes°
principles, the subscriber comes before the
public, soliciting only that patronage
which his exertions mav merit.

CONGRESS.
lu Senate, on the 19th of March, the
Joint Resolution Irorn (he House of
Representatives, fixing the adjourn
ment of Congress on tiie 17th of May
next was taken up for consideration;
and after a short discussion, laid on
the tatile till the first Monday in May
next.
In the House of Representatives,
Mr. Mitchell, from the Select Cum
mittee, appointed on the subject of the
exhumation and entombment in the
Capitol, of the remains of General
Washington, presented a report, ac
companied by the following
RESOLUTIONS:
Joint Resolutions, providing for the
National entombment of the re
mains of General George Washing
ton, and for a pedestrian statue
of that General.
Resolved by the Senate and House
of Representatives of the U. States of
America, in Congress assembled,
That Ihe remains of General George
Washington be removed, with suitable
funeral honours, from the family vault
at Mount Vernon, conducted under
the direction of a Joint Committco of
both houses of Congress, on the
day of December next, and entombed
in the National Sepulchre, to he pre
pared for that purpose under the cen
tre dome of the Capitol, in the City of
Washington, according to a plan ic
commended by a Report of a Select
Committee, made to the House of
Representatives, on the day of
March, 1830.
And be it further resolved, That tho
remains of Mrs. Martha Washington,
consort of Gen, George Washington,
shall, at the same time, be removed-,
and entombed in the same Sepulchre.
And be it further resolved, that a
full length pedestrian statue of Gener
al George VVasington he and the same
is, hereby, ordered to be obtained, to
be executed by some distinguished art
ist, and of the best materials; and said
statue, when executed, shall be placed
in the centre of the Rotundo of the
Capitol, conformably to the plan re
commended in the report of a Commit
tee herein before mentioned. And the
President shall he, and he is, hereby,
authorized and requested, to direct
the execution of the said statue, with
a suitable pedistal of the same materi
al, and to cause the same to be placed
in the place herein designated.
And be it further resolved, That the
sum of be and the same
is, hereby appropriated, for the pur
pose of carrying these resolutions into
effect.
They were ordered to be printed.
The engrossed bill for the relief of
persons engaged in the land and naval
service of the United States, during
the war of the Revolution, was read
a third lime. Mr. Williams moved
its recommitment, with a view to con
dude within its provisions, the militia
who served in that war. Upon this
question, the yeas and nays were ask
ed and ordered, Mr. Bates said that
the proposition, if adopted, would tend
to defeat the bill. Mr. Speight pro
posed an amendment limiting the ben
efit of the bill to those persons posses
sed ol not more than jssoo. Mr Wilde
stongly urged the justice of including
the militia who served during the rev
olution, and the necessity of affording
both < lasses of the gallant soldiers who
achieved the National Indcpedence a
prompt and speedy relief Mr. Le
conipt vindicated the course pursued
by the Committee, and explained the
motives which had induced them to
leport the hill. He ws oppos'd to
the re-commitment, as tending to a
delay, which, at this late period of he
session, would ievitably frustrate its
purposes and objects.
Mr. W ayne adverted to the monst
rous effects that would result from the
adoption of a general pension system.
In two years after the war the amount
expended was estimated at $140,000;
and yet, notwithstanding it was paid
under the rigid restrictions of the
Secretary of War, ox< ceded 81,106,
000; and such an excess in proportion
he had no doubt, would accrue in the
event of the present bill receiving the
sanction of Congress. It was, in the
instance he had referred to, found ne
cessary to retrace the steps which had
been taken upon the subject. After
some further observations on the ne
cessity which would ensue of pursuing
a similar course, should the bill be
adopted, he remarked that the hill
was called a declaratory act; whereas,
by including within its provisions the
cases of persons not comprised in
former ena (merits, it was in point of
fact, an extending act. After refer
ring to the difference in tho value of
money, he instanced cases which
might occur in the slave holding states,
where persons possessing one or two
slaves, and renting land to cultivate,
might bp fully able to subsist them
selves, and yet he entitled to the ben
fits of the act under the thousand dol
lar provision. Should it not be asked,
also whether those possessing such a
sum did not employ it in a retail trade,
w here the profits were of course large,
in comparison with those realized by
the investment of greater capital? Ho
would further ask, where was the
boundary to be fixed to the claims of
the state troops, militia, and volun
teers generally; and how were they to
prevent surreptitious claimants from
deriving the benefits of the bill to an
almost unlimited extent? He was
against the principle of the hill, but
, waß in favor of its recommitment,—
After the reading of a statmerit from
the Secretary of War, of the number
of revolutionary pensioners, and
the amount, paid them up to year
1829, the question was taken on
the amendment of Mr, Speight,
to recommit the bill, with instructions.
The proposition was negatived with*
out a division. The question then
recurred on Mr Williams’ amendment
to recommit, upon which the yeas and
nays were taken and the motion
rejected by a vote of 107 to 74. Mr.
Polk then addressed the house, and
renewed the objections urged by him
in the Committee against the hill; con
sidering that no distinction should be
made between the militia, the vol
unteers, and the regular troops.
He concluded by asking for the yeas
and nays on its passage. The main
question upon the passing of the bill
w as taken, according to Mr Polk*s call
by yeas and nays, and the bill was
passed, by a vote of 107 to 56.
In the House of Representatives, oq
the 22d, the resolution, submitted by
Mr. Condict to inquire into the con
dition of the Indians in Georgia, Ala
bama, and Mississippi, was next
considered, and discussed at some
length. Mr. Wilde offered au a
mendment requesting the President to
communicate information respecting
any intrusion, by the citizei sos Geor
gia, on the lands of the Cherokee In
dians, and also relating to the outra
ges committed by those Indians upon
the Georgians. Mr. Condict sug
gested a further modification, that
it should comprise, aggresions com
mitted by the citizens of Georgia up„
oo the Indians, to which Mr. Wilde
assented and the resolution as amend'*
No. 41.
