We have a few further particulars of the pro
gress of the Indian war. The Tennessee de
tachment had one man killed and four wounded
in the skirmish with the Indians at Mickasukee.
Of the Indians, seven were killed; how many
wounded, not known, Five negroes were taken
the next day. The commander of the Spanish
postot St. Marks taken possession of by Gen.
Jackson, protested against the measure, but did
not oppose its execution bv force. The Georgia
militia will be marched to Trader’s hill and in a
fevy days'be discharged. Captain Arbutfinot, a
British officer, was captured at St. Marks, and
is supposed to have been the same who, some
time ago, commanded the negro Fort on the Ap
palachieola, which was destroyed by our forces
under Colonel Clinch. St. Marks when taken,
was strongly fortified, had twenty pieces of heavy
ordinance, mounted, and was garrisoned by about
fifty' men, who have since embarked for Pensaco
la. Mclntosh, whose vigilance and enterprize
are said to merit commendation, has captured
about one hundred more prisoners.
In the National Intelligencer of the “Bth May,*’
there is a despatch from Gen. Mclntosh, to D. B.
Mitchell, stating that a fight had taken place be
tween his warriors and those of McQueen, in
which the latter were defeated.

OF THE INDIAN WAR.
Major Perault of the United States topographi
cal corps, arrived at Mobile on the 20th ultimo,
direct from the seat of war, gives the subsequent
additional intelligence relative to the operations
j and General Jackson. After the conflagration of
I the Indian town of Mickasukee, and the destruc
tion of the cattle and some few Indians, the Gen
eral proceeded to St. Marks—the Spanish garri
son surrendered as prisoners, and had arrived at
Pensacola. From thence he directed his course
to Swancy, where there were about two thousand
Indians and negroes, who, itwas supposed would
! make some resistance. Maj. P. confirms the ac
count of the execution of the Prophet Francis,
and an Indian Chief. Arbuthnot (Woodbine) is in
Jackson’s possession and in irons. The army of
General Jackson is represented to be in health,
high spirits, and amply provided—so that a deci
sive blow has no doubt been given. He has been
joined by the Tennessee volunteers. His force
now, five thousand. —(Fed. Rep.”)
Lexington, June 1831.
** Dear Sir—ln answer to the inquiries you
made of me the other day, I beg leave to state.—
| The conduct of Gen. Jackson in the Seminole
War of 1827, produced as great feeling in our lit
tle town as it did in any other part of our State.
You had written on to Thomas W. Cobb, Esq.
one ofour Representatives in Congress, and who
then resided in Lexington, that you would leave
Washington for Georgia as soon as a Cabinet
meeting should adjourn, which would be held to
make some inquiry into this matter. Your arri
val in Lexington was looked for w ith great anxi
ety, and ! remember tne day you did arrive, that
Mr. Cobb, and Dr. D. Dunn, now’ of Tennessee,
were at my house at the time you were expected
in that days stage, no other person was present
except those gentlemen and myself. This was
the last of July of that year. You had hardly
seated yourself before Mr. Cobb started the sub
ject of the Cabinet meeting. All who recollect
Mr. Cobb will readily remember his anxiety upon
all political subjects, and particularly on this; his
great feeling on the subject, and feeling much"
I myself along with most ofour citizens, the con
versation which then took place made a very
strong impression on my mind. It is not neces
sary to detail all the conversation that 1 recollect
as it would fill several pages. After having sat
isfied several inquiries put'to you by Mr. Cobb,
i relative to the proceeding of the meeting, he at
! last put some question to you, which you refused
j to give a direct answer to, and then asked him if
; he had seen the National Intelligencer of a parti
! cular date, lie said he had not.
You then observed to him, that he would find in
that paper all that the Administration thought
proper to make public. The conversation was
: kept up for several hours, during which you sev
j eral times referred Mr. Cobb to the statement in j
j the Intelligencer, as he seemed to press his enqui
j ries upon you further than you were disposed to
answer. During the conversation, Mr. Cobb in
! formed you that he considered the conduct of Gen.
( Jackscri, as very improper, and that it ought not
jto be allowed to pass over without being more
! noticed, and as that Cabinet had not, censured
j him, and as no further enquiry into the conduct
! on their part would likely take place, he was
I determined to bring the matter before Congress
j o e?
at the next session, such a precedent,he observed
would be a dangerous one to pass w ithout enquiry
or censure. You used several arguments to con
vince him that he would fail in his object, if it
was brought before Congress. You remarked
that the Nation would support. Gen. Jackson in the
course he had pursued in carrying on this war ;
that public feeling was with him in every State,
except Georgia; that the Administration would
give him their support; and that being supported
■ j the Nation and the Administration, you were
convinced that Congress would not censure his
conduct. Your arguments did not convince Mr.
Cobb, ns he still persisted in saying, that
he should bring it before Congress. I dis
tinctly recollect that you and Mr. Cobb differed
in opinion upon several questions that day dis
cussed, growing out of Gen. J's conduct in this
war. 1 did not understand you as advocating
Gen. Jackson’s conduct, bu* you certainly did ap
pear to attach much less blame to bin, than Mr.
Cobb or Dr. Dunn, or myself. It was a matter
of some surprise to me to find you so moderate in
vour feelings towards Gen. Jackson, and much
less excited than the rest of us. The newspa
pers of the day had prepared us to find you ex
tremely hostile to General Jackson, as it was said
you were mare inimical to him than any other
member of the Cabinet, and your feelings were far
short I know ofhundreds of citizens in Georgia.
During the conversation you disclosed to us many
circumstances that you said occurred at the Cabi
net meeting mentioned, which you did not suppose
were of a confidential nature, but several impor
i tant facts that did occur, l never learnt until since
i your return to Georgia in 1825, and one or two
circumstances relating to this business, I did not
learn until since the correspondence between
Gen. Jackson and Mr. Calhoun; and those facts,
1 consider of a touch more important nature, than
what we learnt from you in 1818, although I can
not say that you were very reserved in that con
versation, yet I think you were more so than usual,
as you several times refused to satisfy Mr. Colib’s
inquiries. Your reserve might have been produ
ced in part by the nature of Mr. Cobb’s enquiries
ami ‘fie use he might intend to make ol them, but
such w.ts the fact. Ona impression made on my
mind that day is distinctly recollected; that some
things that occurred at the Cabinet meeting, you
did cousider of a confidential nature, as you refu
sed to detail them to Mr. Cobh, and he was not
very diffident in pressing thefil on you. I believe
1 have answered all the enquiries you have made,
of me, which I consider Important.

humble servant,

If Extract of a letter from Thomas W. Cobb, da
ted Washington, May 1828.
“ Yon do justice Both to Mr. Crawford and my
self in saving that Mr. Craw ford disapproved of|
die course which I lelt it my duty to the consfitu- j
tiofi to pursue on the Seminole war. lie did per-
suade me not to move any thing on the subject,
and endeavored to ronvincc me that there was no
necessity. A part of our conversation occurred
in the presence of John Holmes, of Maine, who
no doubt will remember it. At another interview
between ourselves Mr. Crawford again persuaded
me not to be the leading mover on the subject, urg
ing not only his former reasons, hut stating ex
pressly his fears that, from the friendship exist
ing between us, my conduct would be charged to
have been dictated by him. I replied, that I
should be sorry’ if my conduct should do him any
injury, but that I must be permitted to pursue that
course which uiy conscience prescribed ; es|>e
oiallyas 1 firmly believed that the constitution
had been violated in ihe most flagrant manner.—
Accordingly, 1 did move the resolutions on the
subject to be found in the journal of the House of
Representatives.”

Rail Road .Hceiiieg
In conformity with the resolution of an adjourn
ed meeting, a large and respectable concourse of
citizens of the town and county, assembled at
the Court House this evening, for the purpose of
electing Delegates to the General Convention to
beheld in Eaton ton during the ensuing month.—
Oliver H. Prince, was called to the Chair, and
Wm. P. Hunter, appointed Secretary. The ob
ject of the meeting was then succinctly staled,
when an animated debate took place, in which the
subject was freely and ably discussed. -Messrs.
H. G. Lamar, Washington Poe, C. J. .McDon
ald, O. H. Prince, and J. G. Polhill, participa
ted in the discussion and exhibited the most live
ly interest in relation to the important subject un
der consideration. After the conclusion of the
debate, Oliver H. Prince, Esq. and Dr. Wm. B.
Rogers, were appointed Delegates—and in the
event of a vacancy’ occurring by resignation or
otherwise, Messrs. R, W. Ellis, C. J McDonald,
and C. B. Strong, were appointed a committee
to supply such vacancy.
After the Rail Road meeting had gone through
the business for w hich they had assembled,
John Lamar, Esq. offered the following Pre
amble and Resolutions:
Whereas, the Tariff of 1828, operates oppres
sively upon the interests .of the South, by impair
ing the value of its staple commodities, and by
imposing unequal burdens upon its citizens,—-
and, whereas, we regard it as a duty imposed up
on us as members of this Repuldlc to approbate
all reasonable and constitutional means to relieve
ourselves from a system both oppressive and un
constitutional.
Be it therefore Resolved , That this meeting
highly approves of the Free Trade Convention to
be held in Philadelphia on the fourth Monday in
next September, and view it as exercising an
important bearing upon the interests of the South
ern States.
Be it then further Resolved, That it is impor
tant that the State of Georgia should be represent
ed in said Convention, and that we highly ap
prove of the Delegates nominated at the late
meetings in Athens and Savannah.
These resolutions gave rise to a very spirited
affair of outposts, in which Mess.s. J. Lamar, C.
B. Strong, and W. Poe, displayed much ability
in the advocacy ot the measure. These gentle
men were opposed in a very ingenious manner, by
C. B Cole, J. B. Wick, and J. G Polhill, (of
Milledgeville.) There was a great deal of sharp
shooting on both sides The debate was pro
tracted until about candle light, when the previ
ous question was called for, which resulted in an
overwhelming majority lor the Resolutions. —
There were about 150 persons present —and when
the fma; vote was taken but four indistinct mut
terings of Nay — Nay — Nay — Nay —caught our
ear. We may take occasion to notice this sub
ject hereafter, and in justice to gentlemen give
their reasons for opposition, accompanied by a
little commentary.
{£/• Dividing such important papers ns Mr.
Cranford's Review, considerably lessens- the in
terest which the reader feels when he has them
presented to him in one view. We have, there
fore, to the exclusion of our usual variety’, pub
lished the Review entire.
T2s* frops.
We are apprehensive, from the accounts which
are daily reaching us, that the late rains will ma
terially injureour crops of cotton and corn. The
Rot, we are informed, has already commenced
its ravages among the cotton, and fears are enter
tained that otir corn will not escape the mildew.
How delusive are human prospects! A few
days have only elapsed, since we were congratu
lating our Planters upon the flattering appear
ance of the season, which promised them an unu
sually abundant and luxurious-harvest. Now,
as it were in the ‘ltwinkling of an ey r e,” the
scene is charged, and the smiling hopes which
were so fondly cherished have passed away.—
These are reverses, however, to which the Plant
er is subject land the best remedy which he can*
exercise, will be found in an increased industry,
an untiring perseverance, ami a more rigid econ
omy.
Iflr. Crawford’* Review.
T'ris document presents a mass of positive and
circumstantial evidence, which indubitably proves
that Mr. Calhoun was the prime mover of the ma
chinations which were got up fur the sacrifice of
Gen. Jackson, during the debate on the Seminole
campaign. It also substantiates that h,Mr Cal
houn, uas .dishonorably used bis official influence,
pecuniary and personal, to traduce and destroy the'
diameter of Mr, Crawford, not only by the fabri
cation of the most slanderous reports, but also by
the establishment of a press, which was devot
ed exclusively to that base and malignant pur
pose. Tho mi varnished statement of Mr. Craw-
ford—-his lucid array of facts and circumstances —
ahd the piauf, honorable, and just deductions
drawn from them, must force conviction upon the
mind of the most sceptical, that the charges which
he brings against Mr. Calhoun, are fully And tri
umphantly sustained. That gentleman is-ndw
placed, in no enviable position before the public.
The mantle of affected, patriotism, which has so
long covered his numerous delinquencies, is torn
from his back, and he is conspicuously exhibited
to the American people, in his natural garb of a
political Harlequin.
The Review also pourtrays in bold reliff, the
tergiversations of Messrs. McDuffie and Lump
kin. The delicate obligations which have been
imposed upon the former individual by bis patron,
Mr. Calhoun, may be considered some palliation
of the blind and fatuous support which he has
yielded him. It cannot however, justify the
course which he has pursued—for the patriot
should never hesitate, between the sacrifice of his
attachment to a private benefactor, and the duty
which he owes his country, in a conflict of these
powerful springs to human action. But this miti
gating circumstance—if mitigating it can be call
ed —although it may be extended to Mr. McDuf
fie, cannot be claimed by Mr. Lumpkin. Mr.
Calhoun had not taken him from the depths of
obscurity, while yet in hisminority,and elevated
hjm to a Respectable, enlightened, and command
ing rank in society. No—there was no such
grateful recollections as those twined around his
youthful heart, to prompt him to the desertion of
his country’s banners. From ’all the circumstan
ces stated, it is reasonable to suppose that Mr. L.
entered the service of Mr. Calhoun, with a private
understanding of the policy which that gentleman
intended to pursue, and has pursued, as recently
developed in his appeals to the people. And, let
it be remembered, that this conspiracy originated
ata time when Mr. L. was holding out the hand of
friendship to the President, and clamoring it to
the public ear his devotion to the Administration
of that distinguished individual. This is the
mail who now aspires to the chief-magistracy of
Georgia!
But let the people read and judge for them
selves. The length of the Review should not de
ter them from doing so. Let them then, we say,
read attentively and reflect seriously. Their own
safety demands this, * f them—for the rights of a
people are never in such imminent danger, as
when they become indifferent to, or too confiding
in, the conduct of their-public servants. “ Ttw
price of Liberty is eternal vigilance."
Cherokee Territory.
Col. Sandford, in a letter to Governor Gilmer,
contradicts the aspersions cast upon his command
by the Cherokee Phoenix. Speaking of the Indians,
lie says, “At all limes has a careful regard been
inculcated for their persons, their property, and for
those privileges not inhibited them by our laws—
not a solitary instance can lie adduced of their vio
lation without a previous liability, or upon pre
sumption so strong as scarcely to admit a doubt
of it.”
The Colonel also notices the arrest of two
while uteri for illegal residence vvitliin the Terri
Preacher by the name of Trot, who had been dis
countenanced by his own Conference for his" offi
cious and overzealous'interference in Indian poli
tics, and whose denunciations agaiii3t Georgia,
were such during one of his political sermons as
created sensations of unspeakable horror in one
(Dr. Butler) liimsolf not in the least remarkable
for his charity and brotherly love towards us.—■
Their appearance has been recognized in bond
for the next sitting of the Superior Court.”
W e regret to sec this mischievous interference
in the municipal concerns ofour State, by men
who aspire to be Ministers of the Holy God—lt
is not only injurious to the country and to the wel
fare of the Indians themselves, but highly dis
graceful to the sacred calling. It is due howev
er, to the pious mid intelligent followers of West
ley te say, that there are few, if any among the
great mass of Methodists in our State who would
not loudly and indignantly reprobate the conduct
ofTrot. An exclusive devotion to their ecclesi
astical affairs, and a rigid obedience to the laws,
are leading and almost peculiar features in the
character of their Church.
TroiiJpNiloitw Storm al Oilcan*.
Our New Orleans papers by last Saturday’s

details of a tremendous storm, which visited

lllttfions.
Kcntuc/ey.— Advices from this quarter are of a
more cheering and official character than those
previously published. The following letter from
Lexington, (Ky.) dated Bth Just, and published in
rite last Washington City Globe, contains infor
mation which will seal the political fate of Hen
ry Clay :
“Dear Sir: The glorious victory which the
i aristocracy of Leri tig tern exulting!;/ claimed
for Clay in Kentucky, a few days since, has
turned out to be a signal defeat. The Demo
cracy have again triumphed—we have elect
ed Johnson, Danjkl, Llcovutk, Wicki.iftk,

could not even get the vote of his own State.
From our present information it is
which party will have the majority in the Le
gislature. Old Hickory is safe in Kentucky,
lie will triumph notwithstanding tho efforts of
open foes and traitor friends."
The following intelligence from Missouri and
Indiana shows that the glorious work is there al
so rapidly approaching its consummation. These
are indubitable evidences, that the popularity of
Andrew Jackson, ins'e id of being oil the wane, as !
falsely’ represented by the Coalitionists, has ne
ver yet reached that full fruition which it now re
ceives :
