I We would recommend to those who harp so (much upon the Cherokee Treaty, and the injus ! , jone the Indians in removing them West, an ■artentive perusal of the letter from John Ridge, Ito be found amongst our domestic matter. It ■/m-t undoubtedly put a stop to their clamor if any Idlin'.' can, and end their unnecessary and uncalled |„r petitions, lmles'ithev are determined to oppose |,.s pi every subject right or wrong. OUR GOVERNOR. I We last week presented to our readers tlio letter |r f the .Secretary of State of the U. S. to the Gov |rnors of Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee and |x'orth Carolina, in relation to the removal of the B’herokces, together with the patriotic reply of Hhwernnr Gilmer. We this week lay before our Hm'ioiis two letters of the Governor on the same BtJ.jrct, one addressed to the Georgia Delegation Hu Congress, aud the other to Col. Dawson. I Wo solicit an attentive perusal of these letter-, show clearly, the independence of Gov- Bnor Gilmer, and will satisfy every man, no mat ■ rto what party ho may belong, that the rights H | |i!)or(ies of Georgia will never he trampled up- B in the keeping of such a man ; and the H. li .' l i ) ies of the Smith will fmd that in order to Brest from MS Pur rights and liberties, they will Bi ivtsto walk over the body of Georgia's Goveru- Bir. as well ns thousands who will stand by him as ■ mg ns a drop of blood flows through their veins, Bde; thum try it whorTtbey choose, I While wo can but admire the independent course BimMO'd by the editor of the Constitutionalist to- Buds his political (Vends who have gone counter B" die interests of Georgia in relation to the re- B iof the Cherokoes, we rogret that he should B led to us.' remarks calculated to idled tho fair B .'iilmg of our faithful and talented Rcpresenta- B , t and, Wm.

B T’he Secretary of State says, in relation to the B e 'ay recommroended in the removal of the Che I I hose views, in connection with the proposed arrangement, were ma le known to an individual Senator supposed to be best acquainted with the temper of the remnant of the Cherokee people yet to emigrate, aud best able to judge 0 f tire pro priety of consenting to their proposition to remot e themselves, through their Chiefs and Head-men* as nrwst likely to contribute Jo the peaceable re moval of the nation.” We were put to our studies foif sometime, in en deavoring to ascertain who this Senator Could but were unable to come to auv Satisfactory cou clusion, nut for the first “.'foment suspecting either nil 0 £ p ”.’tlcman from Georgia. It turns out, .vever that it was tho gentleman whose name heads' this article ; “and out of his own shall he be condemned.” lie says; “It might be duo to tho Secretary of Wav to state that ho (Mr. L.) had been consulted in rela tion to this matter, from which consultation, he presumed, this document might have resulted.” It really dues appear to ns the old tnau should have kuown better how’to act. Can lie dare face his coustitiv'Ht- imam after acting so faithless a part towards them in a inaU* r upon which they felt thu deepest interest, and that too, w hen lie was sent to Washington becuuse he was believed to lm better acquaint'-d with the subject than any other man ; aud fur tho purpose of securing the speedy execution us the trea'y ? But a man who has tl}c audacity o !•> ar-t t will have the impudence to du any thing, Wc would say to him that Tekclhas bsetl written against him in Georgia, aud all his exertions to efface the hand-writing from the wall will be of but little avail. MR WISE. 11 has always been a source of pleasure to us f heretofore, to view the independent and manly course generally pursued in Congress by the gen tleman whose name stands at the head ot this ar ticle, iu resisting the aggressions of the General Government, always believing him to be a firm, unflinching and undeviating State Rights man, and ever ready to defend the sovereignty of the States, and as such cherished the kindest feeling tor his success aud welfare. But the course pursued by him on the Clierokco question, and the language used in reference to our State, demand from every •Georgian an expression of the deepest indignation and most determined opposition. llow can he profess to be an advocate of State Rights and State Sovereignty, when he claims powers for the Gonersl Government equal and sim ilar to those assorted in th“ Proclamation of Goii. Jackson 1 How can lie claim to lie a State Rights man, w hen he talks in Congress ol castigating a State for exercising her rights ot sovereignty and jurisdiction over lier own soil ? A man advocating such doctrines cannot be a State Rights man, and we are consequently compelled to renounce all political connexion with him, at least until lie re traces his steps, You iaik of castigating Georgia, indeed, We ran assure you sir, that although the people of Georgia, have in time recognized the principles ol the Proclamation and I'ofco Bill, that time has past, and the banner of State Rights waves tri» umphaiilly over pur St.*t protected by men too brave to be intimidated hv any threats ol castiga tion, cornu from what quarter they may, and should yon and your allies in the Cherokee cause think proper to test the mat; r, you will find that the spirit of ’7O lias not and -p-irtad from Georgia, but that liberty burns as freely iu the bosoms of her sons now, as it did in their lathers' in the “times which tried men’s soiiks,” The conduct and Jauguago of Mr. Wise, on the subject referred to, a e too outrageous to be noticed, and we hardly think w e should have done so had it not been for the purpose of renouncing (as one of his former friends,) all political connex ion with him, as we can give no countenance w hat ever, to any man who would use such language as has fallen from his lips in relation to our beloved State, por the i.KOuiiiA mirror, TIIE SABBATH SCHOOL, Messrs Editors;— It was with great pleasure I saw noticed in your paper a few' weeks ago, that the good citizens of Florence were about establish ing a Sabbath School in our town, and still more was i rejoiced to see the thing carried into effect, believing that nothing could so far advance the prosperity of the young anil rising generation as an institution of this kind. I have been a regular attendant of the School, and witnessed tor a few Sabbaths the ertergy and zeal with which the teachers and scholars have discharged their du ties, as well as those having the superintendence. The School has been opened and closed with singing and prayer, and every thing appeared to move along with ease and cojrdort, until last Sab bath, when all who nr ' friendly to the institution must have felt, w ith deep regret and mortification the neglect of those upon whom the prosperity ot the school depends. The house full of scholars, waiting with anxious solicitude fur the School to be opened, and an opportunity presented to re hearse the lesson diligently studied the past week, but no one apperrod to discharge that duty, and several of the classes were destitute of teachers. Gan it be possible that the originators of this institution will suffer it to pass away, to die, for the wajit of their nourishment and aid ? Will they suffer children to out lie them in zeal and energy ? And will they permit these things to pass by unheeded and unnoticed ? Wc hope not, and trust that tomorrow morning every mart, wo man and child will be at their posts —the Super intendent s especially. For them I have the ut most respect, and place all .confidence in their 3- bility to discharge the duties encumbent upon them, and hope they will see well to their dis charge, for an awful responsibility rests upon them in relation to ibis matter. I would respectfully submit a few inquiries for the consideration of the managers of tlie institu tion. Have you as managers, discharged the du ties devolved upou you ? Have you held tjie first meeting as managers ? Have you presented to the Superintendents the first rule for the Govern ment of the school ? I think you will be compel- THE GEORGIA MIRROR led to answer in the negative to thesp questions. And how can you account to the coimnudTFyTor this improper, unpardonable neglect? 1 can conjecture no excuse w hich you can give. Aon have ail been living in town or near it ever since the commencement of the school, and could, at any time have held a meeting and conducted mat ters with regularity and case, aud upon your heads rests as much as any one this dilapidated state of the institution. Let me, in behalf of the commu nity, the scholars, and the cause of morality, en treat you respectfully to enter forthwith upou the discharge of your duties, and suffer not this state of things to continue. Many of the scholars ex press great dissatisfaction, nnd upon the faithful discharge of your duties, depends the existence of the institution. Will you perform them ?( These remarks are thrown out with the kindest feelings, and w ith every respect for those concern ed aud hope they will be so taken. A FRIEND. FOR THE GEORGIA MIRROR. RESUMPTION, Or when will the Banks pay their TKdttsf This question is of vast importance to all; and .one which is not likely to be responded to in gold and silver, so long as timidity exists in tho people. Beggared, as they are, they dread to speak, lest their oppressors should add to their miserable con dition, aud strip them of their only surviving rag. Deeply interested as we aie iu this issue, we are silent, vvhilsts the monopolists and banking mon arclis arc consulting their pleasure and interest when to pay their debts. The man who owes a dollar must pay per force, whilst these monsters devour your substance and defy the law. Is there no remedy? Shall wc be silent, be pillaged by these cormorants, whilst they riot in bankruptcy ? No. Let the people speak, act and consult each other. ’Tisstrange, that a people so jealous of their rights, and so devoted to liberty ant! Repub lican principles, should linger in a course des tructive to both. Whilst they war about words and devote hours of study to questions ot momen tary importance, they forget the great objects of society, and slumber whilst the insidious enemy to liberty, equal right ; and privileges is ravaging and destroying the idols of their worship, til s ' theme of the statesman, tire hobby-horse of the political aspirant and worthless demagogue;—liberty is be coming a sound, equal rights exists only in words. Banks and banking rail roads have stopped the voice of the Representatives ol' the people, and rod ■ them beyond their only proper sphere of ac tion. Tho Representatives of the people of Georgia no longer possess that unshrinking honesty .which bids defiance to human power, whether existing in the republican monarchist or b ink in g-monopo lies. Banks, creatures of men, the breath of the Legislature, are permitted by it to violate fl.io only conservative guards in their charters. Threaten thorn, they lausrh at your chastisement and defy vnnr power. What are they ? Combinations of the wealth, the popular and haughty aristocracy ot' the .State. To what end arc they embodied ? Speculation, usruy and fraud. Once established, how ever specific their powers, and restrained in action, cupidity becomes their limits, then’ action coextensive with their mercenary hopes, and uni versal thraldom their dying ambition. They seize the first opportunity to violate tlioir charters, and break tlmir faith to the people. Onco done, they yield alone to force, and this they dread not. — They seize the first opportunity to silence oppo sition. and to effect this they add bribery to perfi dy. Thus they live. The Representative is si lenced by holding out inducements of a bountiful accommodation, whilst debtor? dread the four walls of a prison. Thus monopolists, illegal Shylocks, become the nucleus upon which liberty of speech and freedom of mind depend ;— rights, once dear to every American heart, lie neglected and for gotten midst tho struggle for power, and aceumu iit ion of wealth. Whatever might have been the objects of Bank s in their first organization, whe ther for the accommodation of the merchant, far mer. or benefit of stockholders, they are bound and ought to be held to their ohartsrod specifica tions. Thov have exl r.tordinarv privileges given thorn bevouti any association of unincorporated body of persona, and these, amidst tlio most perilous and impoverishing crisis which has ever visited this country, they have used, with the most daring au dacity. rockless of consequences, smiling at the ruin they have wrought. Not content with hav ing over issued, they refuse to rcdecjn # their bilks, qnd as if yet unsatisfied with the catalogue oftheir enormities, thov add impudence to treachery aud atrocity, by flooding the country with post notes. They suspend (unable to pay their debts) and seize the moment of suspension to embarrass and impoverish their creditors and debtors. They shave the one and suspend accommodation to tlio other. They seize the moment ot pressure to press stiii further, and not content with having giv en Rheumatism to all, they turn the screw once more and end your existence with the gout.— They suspend, and yet suspend, and will contin ue to suspend sine die, until the little yon have left of their irredeemable notes, have been filched and frittered away by exchanges, A es, they lie come shavers of thtfi* own notes, due on demand in silver, They refuse to pay their debts to re deem their due bills; they refuse to pay their bills, and these very bills they purchase with others of their own called I” Exchange!! and exchange they will, until you have no change left, or until the people, indignant at the evils they have suffered, and wrongs endured, shall dictate to their Representatives, impel a forfeiture of their charters, and meet them at Fhillippi.

The following letter from a friend in Washing ton City will be read with great interest by the political and personal friends of Col. Dawson. We shall wail with considerable anxiety the arri val of this speech and will spread it before our readers as soon as possible. Washington, June 1, 1838. Dear Sir—Our friend Dawson, yesterday, made a speech on the Cherokee Treaty, of which his freinds and the state of Georgia may well be proud. I have rarely enjoyed a greater pleasure than it afforded me. It was a thorough, able and eloquent vindication of the course of Gcorgi,. to wards the Indians, and I have no doubt lias put to rest forever the unjust clamour against the state. An old and distinguished member of the House told me that he had heard and read all the speech es on the subject, but that there had been none as able vindications oftbe state: The tone, manner, and spirit, were just such as the honor of the state demanded. There were in the gallery two tliJ tingnished Georgians, of different politics, who were both delighted: 110 man could be otherwise who regarded the honor and character of his state. I w ill not say half what this manly and able effort deserves, least 1 may be suspected of falling into the vice of the times —newspaper puffing. I will only add that 1 do not believe that any Georgian, who comes here and sees tho position that Dawson ne< 111 lies, will be likely to vote against him when he goes hence. A'ours, truly, T. From the Charleston Mercury of the 7th inst. INCENDIARISM. An attempt was made on Tuesday night, be tween 8 and!) o’clock, to fire the residence of Mr. Andrew Moffett, on the West side of Meeting street, nearly opposite to the Circular Church. A parcel of paper tilled with live coals was thrown into liis premises from the adjoining lot, which fell between the pantry and out-house. A servant being in the pantry, discovered the coinbustable matter and extinguished the fire. The most daring attempt that we have heard of, was made yesterday morning, between 9 and 10 o’clock, to fire tho buildings occupied bv Mr. J. Caldor as a residence and Cabinet-maker’s shop, on Meeting-street, east side, one door north of the Circular Church, by placing combustible mat ter in two places under the piazza facing the south, which was discovered before any damage was doim The servants on the premises have been arrested and will undergo examination. Time is ever on the wing, and death is ever nigh ! How incessary is it that we should improve the former while it lasts, and prepare Tor the latter that we may bo ready for the awful summons when it eomes. Tho season ol the year reminds us of these solemn realities, and should oxcite in every individual serious thoughts on that inter esting question recorded in the 89th Psalm, and the 4*tli verse, “ what man is he that liveth and shall not see death ?” AVhat young man is he that liveth and shall not see death? those who arc in the younger part of life are apt to place death at a great distance, and to suppose that it is time enough-for them to thiuk about dying when they are old. But who can say how long he has to live ? He certainly will see death soon er or later, and he may not live to be old. A Pilgrim. —Among the passengers in the ship Susquehanna, recently arrived at this port from Liverpool, was Miss Harriet Livermore, who will be recollected by most of our readers as a zealous preacher. This lady, about two year-: since, left Philadelphia to go to Jerusalem. Sl>o went, tarrying a shorttimo .it London, touch ing at Gibraltar, Malta and the intermediate places, and abode for some time in tho Holy City, sitting in tlio sepulchre “where the Lord was laid,” wandering in the Valley of Jehosophat, climbing the Mount of Olives, fording Kedron, lingering in Goths; mane, and journeying round places consecrated to Christiau sympathies and biblical reminiscences. Where David sung and Jeremiah wept. Tli < lone woman, of delicate health, mode all this journey without a male protector.—-She so journed in a Catholic convent while in Jerusalem, and was kindly entertained. She was when near the levant, amidst those dying with the plague, and once in a place agitated by a trcmeuuous earthquake. The New Orleans Herald, says a Raleigh paper lias the following laconic announcement: “Aydlliatii Smith shot Samuel Kellum, a few days ago, in Rockingham county.—trout the ef fect of which death ensued in an hour.” That is fully equal in manner to tho story oi a box who lately promenaded the streets, hallowed in a most lusty manner. A passer by stopped him and enquired the matter: .’Boo-lioo-oo,fath er’s hung, mother's foil into the well, sister li as the moasles, and I don.t cage a damn.”—Cin cirrvati Xrtr?. o*”' rm w~em 4IIMV »—.W» v .»■ A CCOK dTNG to a few days notice by the r\ Trustees of Florence Academy, a public examination of the Students was desired, and the exercises of tho first Term closed this day, and the citizens who attended, were much delighted, with the improvement of students, and the Trustees present take great pleasure in giving this public testimonial ot tljeir approbation for the jdd° airi impartial manner in which Mr. A. AV. Gris wold has discharged his duty as an instructor; and widiout any hesitancy we would recommend P.-rents and Guardians to place their Children wards under Mr-. Griswold’s care: whom we consider second to none, as an instructor in the English and Latin languages. The second term of this institution w ill com tneice on Monday the 25th day ot June, under the charge of Mr. G. w ith the same rules and regulations as the term just ended. v\'e wcjuld remark that Florence has-been en tirely healthy, and settled with good society, board may be-had at customary rates in Town or neighborhood.
