In presenting to readers such extracts, we think we do more Kood in subserving the happiness of “ Social H'*''-' (ban we possibly could do, were we to ca nt Grits political prejudices until eternity itself Cay Logical 4’C cw'encs on Monday week. We . nticipntc a !! j taterestiyg and important session. To ren* ”ft so, the elections for State-llouse Officers, 4 those of the Judiciary, will contribute much— id to which, there arc important subjects which '■* ptcscnuhemstlves for consideration. Among will ho— conupoiiey of the C'icrohcc T'.rrli'jry. the Gold Mines ; and The Penitentiary. u relation to t’r. occupancy of tho Cherokee '"s,.”' we expect something decisive will be It is nov the wish of Georgia, nui l ' ,u 'd be precipitated from their possession, iihoiit giving them such ample time and mean?, way best conduce to their interest, habits, and '■afort. Let then, our next Legislature, limit o acceptance of its overtures to a specific period •awl.it alter its expiration, the Oherokces should biteinaia refractory, the state may, with equal sbee and humanity, dust them from their oe ipw'cy as she would be in turning out of doors f lo "'horn she Lad gratuitously granted all the iT >!eßes of a tenant at will, but who had mox. Vnateirdly abused her humanity, by availing of the indulgent benevolence which was ttciiuei to bint, onihe shallow plea el' posscs- J! y tight. It is time that the State should act mrmptorily and decidedly cu the subject. Her 11 -vatatiec has already ac 'i.isolated lii'-rccuary '■ '. ".sue and npposi ion w bid. is at war with he r •ct interests, and which in making dangerous upon the tights of her ciiiamis end the : no -.f in r own sovereignty. Let the State ; ii,wm have already intimated, mark out ti -tw: .t hemidf font wjtich she will Hot.di 's C;vn tb nay than sufficient time to accede to her own an ,t t!, e proposition of the General Government- and, ii after its expiration, they should still refuse to quieSce, let us we again say, take into our own hands that which belongs tons, be the conse quences what they may. The Gold Mines will, probably, become a dis cussion, more in consequence of the unfortunate collision which has taken place hween the Ex ecutive an,l one of our most distinguished Ju rists, than from any consideration of the right of the State to cren-iSo the authority which she I enjoys. We say, more in conseqence of the un I loriunatc collision ; because it is tke business of I our adversaries, not to raise themselves into porv. er, by an honest and manly devotion to tujr rights, but ifi endeavering to distract our councils when ever a mere diversity of opinion prevails among us, by hypocritically courting, and insidiously espousing that side, which they think will best subserve their inordinate aspirations after office. Having themselves no regard for the public j rights, and despairing of elevating themselvss I into office by fair and patriotic mean's, their only object in mingling in the political affairs of tile day, seems to be, the hope of gaining the reins of government, by watching the tide of poi iitieal events, and whenever a collision, like the one to which we have alluded, takes place, en deavor to widen the breech, and push themselves into power by embracing the opinions of the. mi nority. We sincerely regret that a difference of opinion should exist, m relation to so very impor tant a subject, between such men as Governor Gilmer and Juiige Clayton. But we fee! assur ed that the opposition will receive no advantage from it, however plausible and ingenious their maumuvres may be. Among such men, a con- P.iction of views, is not the signal for a desertion from the party to whosq support they have been devoted all theirlife, rhey ear. prop-tidy appre ciate the objections of each other, and extend to them, in a political point of view, without disturb ing the harmony of their party,all that courtesy & indulgence which belong to honorable men. For our own part, wc cannot suppose, but that the measures pursued by Governor Gilmer in relation 1 to the Gold Mines will meet the approbation of the Legislature. To us, it S ( ms, -fiat had he granted the 1iu..,u3 the liberty ot digginu- at pleasure, after we had extended over tlietn’oitr civil and criminal jurisdiction, would have virtually violated an act to which lie Lad given his official assent. 1 iie I emtentiary System wiij als>s cccuiv ! much of the attention of the Legislature. This I system which it was fondly hoped, would be the j means Of graduating to just and fixed rules the j penal codes of our country, appears to have failed j ot success. The only argument in favor, ifargit-! meat it mey be called is, that the Connecticut I Penitentiary, (we believe it Was the Connecticut: Penitentiary,) had made a profit of a thousand! dollars or more, the last year. But lot it be re- j collea ed, that in the estimate, that Oommisttcn- ■ ers forgot to value the rentoi the building, which ! ' I they been let out to the public, would Itave i commanded more than the profits contended for, I and, conseqently, have left the Institution in dbfcs, [ Taking every expenditure into consul, -mtu-M#.} there is not a Penitentiary in the Union whvh ! will Cover disbursements. An a source of revenue i then, if its advocates tidy- upon thflt, they w ii! , surely be disappointed. But the primary object! of the System is the graduation of crime to pan- ■ ishment. We arc net prepared to speak directly on I this point, because we Lave not the documental j evidence before us, Which would enable us to do 1 so. But, from a very rigid observation we feel convinced, in fomconseientia , that the system in- j stead of meliorating the moral condition ofsocie- i ty, has immensely added to its licefttiousnfss. I We’therefore hope, that the Institution will be! abolished, and that a Penal Code mote efficient i in its object, nv.’y be established'. Besides the topics cf legislation enumerated,: Imprisonment f .• Debt, v.iii probably occupy con-' siderablo of the attention of our General Assem bly. T*om a Circular to tho Sheriff), of the State, issued frara the Executive Department some month's since, it would appear that it -was the ob ject of Governor Gilmer to lay before the Legis tarca statement of facts w hich would enable it to consider the subject in ail its important bearings, and to adopt such modifications as might best promote the ends of justice. That our Lcgisla laturc may, in its deliberations, so comport itself, as to conserve the interests of the state mid the dignity of its deliberations, is our ardent desire. Patriotic.
