and esteem it a business of mercy- This must be charming to those who are stew ards of the Dispenser of mercies, and we would have their voice to second our es says, We would likewise recommend to the patrons of religion in the upper part of our State, the establishment of a depository for Sunday school books and tracts, to which we can resort more readily for a supply of them, and keep up the energies of our pn pits, than we .can by sending to a considera ble distance and be hindered from obtaining them as soon as they are needed. From this circumstance several have dropped off, whom, we fear, it will be difficult to per suade back. Tbe inconvenience does not rest altogether with us. We suppose there are some other schools that might be ad vantaged by having lecourae to sucb a de pository, and we are confident that it would be an effectual method by which many more weald be constituted. WILLIAM HAMMOND.) c - THOMAS KING, J C °™ U DAVID C. HASLET. ) “ rail, MOUNT ZION, MONDAY, MAY 16,1325. It vill be recollected that the Presbytery of jjjHotpewell at its late sessions, recommended to ’.ttipir ministers to assemble in as large numbers as would justify, particularly on Sac- Snmental occasions, and that the ancient custom Os Fasting, Humiliation and Prayer, as prepara tory to an approach to the Lord’s Table should > ;be revived. The recommendation carries in its livery face an humble acknowledgement that the state of religion is by no means what it should be j,.in this branch of the Christian Church. The sen j Nment which it conveys is something like this ; jsyShd we will imagine it to be the language of some Ringed minister whose locks are blossoming for the IRriVe—-who standing upon the very threshold of ’SSternitj, is inspired with the recollection of past blessings, and who feels a tender solicitude for the generation that is immediately to succeed shim. “ Brethren,” we will imagine him to say, Y “ I have seen more prosperous days than these ; ‘•days in which the candle of the Lord shone bright : iflground his church—when a holy fervour of soul yraßinimaled the people of God—when their conver sation, and prayers, and life, afforded evidence to * pKll around them, that they were only pilgrims ‘.here insearchof a better country —when great ■’ searchings of heart, and inquiry at the Throne of ’ Grace, were felt to be necessary preparations for j|a comfortable approach to the Sacramental board—and when the ministrations of the sanctu ’ , ary were blest to the conversion of souls, and to 5?; the edification of the church in the most holy H faith. But these days hare long since past, and the blessing has fled with them- The crown has fallen from our head —The gold has become dim Sjmhd the moit,fine gold changed. We have forsa ken the fountain of iiving waters. We have let &sflown the standard of Christian piety. We have ©p>eea literally weary of the service which God jUmequires, and have hurried from his presence.— |We have abandoned the means which God for- Tmerly blessed, and he lias sent leanness to our Spools. Ah ! 1 can but weep when I remember mZion. But let us inquire for the good old way. .jfLet us return unto the Lord and he will return gs unto us. Let us manifest onr deep and unfeigned iff repentance by fasting, humiliation and prayer, fmand if the vision tarry, let us wait for it in the use ■■l of the appointed means.” Such ‘.ve conceive is a ij feeble representation of those sentiments which ■ the recommendation conveys. It is humbling, Jfi bltt before honour corneth humility. As it im * c plies a confession before God of past unfaithful r roes*, by the collected representatives of that fchurcli, and as ft contemplates an immediate re '-turn to those means which have proved a blessing 7W other times, it may not be presumptuous to . Sopk for a thorough reformation. How the hurchesof that communion will generally re ceive it we have yet to learn. The Presbyterian Church in this place endeav jfoured, on their late sacramental occasion,to com ',,ply with tbe recommendation of the Presbytery ; ‘and some visiting friends from a distance requesi- I ®ed us, as they felt it good to be here, to state such * facts in relation to the meeting as might encour age others to go and do likewise. We can only < say that the occasion was unusually solemn and } interesting, (though perhaps not more so than 5 sister churches usually witness) and a favourable Jr impression is made, not only on the church, but Kon the minds of a number that attended. Five £ Ministers were present, and the exercises com roehced on Thursday evening with a very appro anate and solemn discourse from Heb. ii. 3 IsHow shall we escape if we neglect so great sal r ‘RKd ?” We would here remark that we can on | jMate the order of exercises ; for we have nei ’ dWtjlirne nor ability to give any thing like a just of the discourses which were delivered, were requested. Friday was observed by W as ad y fasting. A sermon was de in the morning from Eccl. ix. 18—“ One ■-IMV destroy eth much good,” and in the after- i. Peter, iv. 17, 18—“ For the time is that judgement must begin in the housed - cB and if it begin at us what shall the end be .& m d, a t obey not the Gospel of God ? And righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the sßdlj & the sinner appear.” Friday night three Ministers took a part iD the exercise*, and v Beared to be more than usually engaged for the Ipv-atioii of souls. On Saturday morning a praye: ■Keeling was held in the Church. IT After which the Education Society met, and , jj* annual sermon was preached from Ezekiel xiv ■jHfjjL.fc My sheep wandered through all the moun Kv* tains, and upon every high hill: yea, my flocl was scattered upon all the face of the earth, anc IB none did search or seek after them.” In she af W terpoon a sermon was delivered from Luke x. 4! ® One thing is needful.” ‘ At night three of She Ministers again spoke from John xxi. 17—“ Simon, son of Jonas, Invest thou me.” Sabbath morning there was a prayer meeting again in the Cburch; at 8 o'clock there was a sermon from Isaiah iii. M), 11—“ Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him; for they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Woe unto the wicked ! it shall be ill with him; for the reward of his hands shall be giv en him.” The action sermon was preached from Psalm xxiv. 10—“ Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory.” The table was very solemnly guarded, and the nature and design of tbe institution were shown with in. re than ordinary fidelity. A large number as sembled around the Sacramental board, and Je sus was made known in the breaking of bread. Sabbath afternoon, a sermon was delivered from i. Kings xviii. 21—“ How long halt ye between two opinions.” All the Ministers on Sabbath night spoke from Jeremiah viii. 20—“ The harvest past, the summer is ended, and we are not sav ed.” This meeting was very interesting. It was remarked at the close of the afternoon exercises, that the people had attended long enough, and punctually enough, if it was only done out of a compliment to their Ministers. Yet if a num ber would express themselves with any degree of anxiety for the continuance of the meeting at night, the Ministers would be ready to meet them. An expression of their feelings was given, and an unusual number attended. Monday morning a farewell discourse was delivered from Hebrews ii. 1—“ Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip”—in which some thing like a summary of all the exercises of the meeting were taken and applied. Through the whole meeting a very considerable interest was manifested, and it deepened to the close. How long the impression will last, or how many will be savingly benefitted by it, God only knows. This, we learn, is the ancient manlier in which the Presbyterian Church observed Sacramental occa sions ; and from the effects of this meeting we are not at all surprised that those who remember them are peculiarly anxious that they should be revived.

THE IMDIAjXS. The Journal of last week furnishes the follow ing statement relative to the murder of Gen. Mc- Intosh : “ The Coweta chief and Chilly Mclntosh were both at the house of the General. The hostile Indians surrounded it about two honrs before day, set fire to it in several places, and waited the re sult. Those within it were roused from their sleep by the smoke, and Gen. Mclntosh came out first. As soon as he made his appearance, the enemy fired upon him, and he fell pierced by about 40 bullets. Chilly seized the moment when they were reloading, and fled. Etome Tustenng gee next oame out and fell under the fire of the enemy as Geu. Mclntosh had previously fallen. They were both thrown back into the house and burnt op with it. Chilly was pursied closely, but reached the river, plunged into it, and dived as far as he ConJd. As he rose to get breath the enemy fired at him. He dived again, and finally reached the opposite bank ur.hurt. It was tbe determination of the hostile parly to inurJer every one who signed the late treaty. H e have not heard of their success in any other case except that of Col. Hawkins. Tins chief has al so fallen a victim to their cruelty. The others, it is hoped have made their escape.” The following additional particulars are from the Macon Messenger of Wednesday last. They are more in accordance with the information com municated to us by a gentleman who has just pass ed through the Nation, than any statement we have seen, and are probably mainly correct : We have endeavoured to collect a correct ac count of the circumstances of ibis affair, from trav ellers direct from Ft. Mitchell, ami gire the fol lowing as the result of our enquiries ; part of Which we obtained from Mr. Win. Bootwright, wlxi Was present when the murder was committed : his statement may be depended upon for its ascura cy. On the 30th ult. at day break, a body of about 200 Indians collected around the houses of Gen. Mclntosh. He being in the second story of his house, vras requested to come down, but refused. The house was immediately set on fire, and his family suffered to leave it. He snapped his rifle at thtt Indians, which only flashed, when he was instantly fired at by a large number, and literally blown to pieces; fell down the itair case, and was drawn out of the house. I Some white men, who were travellers, lodged in moth er building, and on taking the alarm, were iriform ed by o white man, that no harm wap intended them. Chilly Mclntosh, son of the and a young Indian named Kennard, also occupied the same room, but being dressed in citizens’ clothes, walked away without being recognized, and escaped. They were, however, discovered by a scouting party, and a number of balls firet at them, one of which passed through the clothfsof Mclntosh; but they escaped by swimming a cieek and concealing tbemselve6 in the margin of the Chattahoochy. Tomnie Tustenuggee, an old Chief of the Coweta towns, who was also in the same room, being in the Indian dress, Was iliot witli a great number of balls, and killed. The houses were plundered, set on fire, and the sfeves, horses, cattle, &c. taken. The family wer4 also nearly stripped of their clothing. The travelers were suffered to depart without interruptioniwith the loss of some articles taken with the plunder Our informant supposes that there was upwartbof a thousand Indians in the vicinity who were aiding in (he murder. He remained at the place, and assisted in burying Mclntosh and the other chief after the Indians were gone. He supposes the value of the plunder nearly forty thousand doltaie, upwards of twenty thousand of which was inspe. cie. From the Maeon Messenger, We have been favoured with the following copy of a letter from Col. Crowell to his brother, Capt. Henry Crowell, dated 6th May, 1&25. “Str—Since the intelligence of tbt death of Mfijptosh, the whole nation is in contusion—his pWy has threatened the death of the Little Prince and myself. So soon as the news got out, the warriours poured in, in great numbers to pro tect us, and seemed intent to pursae them and put them to death, —but I have restrained them. They will, however, guard my house every night I cannot yet ascertain whether there is any dan ger or not.

Stale of Europe. —The writer of anew work published in Europe, entitled “ Revue Politique de L’Europe en 1825,” thus sums up his remarks: France, without any fixed position, placed be tween her ancient and her new regime, and yield ing to her old prejudices; Italy wafting impatient ly for the moment of throwing off hers ; the civil ized portion of Spain reduced to silence and de spair by that portion which remains in barbarism ; Austria preserving the model of a happy state of servitude ; Prussia ignorant how to reconcile her political existence with her civil state; the Pola nese spirit surviving Poland; Germany forever busy with the rights of the people and the rights of kings, discussing every thing, and determining nothing; Russia instructing Europe in an Asiatic obedience; Turkey crouching at length to the acclamations of a civilized people; Greece rising from her ruins, and resuming her rank among the noblest nations; Sweden inarching with a wise and steady rtep towards her new destinies ; Den mark unmoved amidst the general turmoil and confusion ; Belgium within a single step of being the happiest State in Europe; Switzerland some what disturbed in her liberties by her Catholick population ; Ireland still more fanatick than she is unhappy ; Portugal escaping from the yoke of sovereigns; Rome persecuting philosophy where ever she finds it, and enveloping Europe with her secret armies; in fine, proud England, leaning upon America, whose destiny she sanctions, glanc ing from her ocean home at the agitations of Eu rope, contemplating in safely the storms which rage around her, and bolding in her hand the power to give, at will, a direction to these agita tions which must be fatal to tyranny. Such is Europe at the beginning of the year 1825; she will be no longer the same when the year shall have revolved. The second timber ship at Quebec, will be launched about the 16th of May, and is conside rably larger than the first.

The alarm excited by the appearance of the Small Pox in Monticello, appears to have given rise to numerous ieports of its existence in other places. Eatonton, Milledgeville and Saunders ville, have been suddenly visited, according to report, by this terrible disease, though the good people of those places knew nothing of their dan ger until informed of it from abroad ! I have just received a letter from a gentleman in Poweltob, only ten miles distant, communicating the alarm ing information (hat the small pox existed here, and recommending the most prompt and effectual measures to circumscribe the contagion. The name of the unfortunate subject of the disease was even mentioned, as well as tbe time and place of his contracting the infection. Now all this is news here ; for, so far from having a case of small pox among us, little or no apprehension has been entertained respecting it. If any alarm were ex cited when the fact of its existence in Monticello was first ascertained, it has now entirely subsided. It is proper, however, to guard against a dis ease so contagions and formidable, especially when near us. And as Vaccination has proved an effectual agent in checking the ravages of the Small Pox, I would earnestly recommend to all who have not availed themselves of this safeguard, to do so immediately. Having procured some of the genuine matter, I will vaccinate any person who may call on me, without charge. J. G. GILBERT, Practising Physician. Mount Zion, May 14,1825. LAW OFFICE.
