For the purpose therefore of more ef ktaally preventing the exercise of power by [lie head men and chiefs of said nation they recommend the following bill; A BILL To be entitled an Act, to prevent the cx rtciae of assumed and arbitrary power by all >tt6ons under pretext of authority from the -herokee Indians and their Laws.

In Senate, the Gold Mining Bill, called the Georgia Mining Company, was negatived by a large majority. In the House, ihe Pardon Bill oflsaiah Gaines was passe’ 1 . IT. S. SUPREME COURT, VS GEORGIA. The proceeding’s of the Legislature in our pa per of to-day will be found interesting—particu larly the notice of the Citation of the Supreme Court of the United States, issued against Geor gia, in the case of the culprit Missionaries. The Citation is signed by Henry Baldwin, who, it will be recollected,was the sole andsolitary demurrer a crainst the opinion of Chief Justice Marshall,as pro nounced in the case of Tassels—a case similar in its character, but less aggravated in its features than that of the Missionaries — inasmuch as both cases were penal, and occured within the limits of our sovereign jurisdiction ; the latter, howev er, disdaining the offer of Executive clemency humanely extended them, which tho former would doubtless, have accepted, had the circumstances of the case justified its interposition. These re peated and fruitless attempts of the Supreme court of the United States, to control the sover- j eigntyof an independent State, if much longer persisted in, will cetuinly render her delibera ti ns supremely ridiculous; and in time, induce us almost to question even an exercise of her legitimate authority; Governor Lumpkin, in communicating the cita tion to the Legislature, has, we are truly glad to say, confirmed the course ptvsucd in the case of Tassels, by his able and patriotic predecessor.— lie has met the judicial mummery of Judge Bald win, in a manner becoming the character and in terests of Georgia. In doing so, however, lie places between himself, his party, and the Ex- Judge Schley, an impassable barrier—lor it will be recollected that the latter gentle man was willing to prostrate us at the foot stool of the Supreme court, by clamorously advocating for it a supremacy which even that high-toned and arbitrary tribunal dared not, even itself, contend for. And for this shall we send Judge Sthley to Congress? Forbid it Justice— forbid it Patriotism. NOMINATION OP CEX. JACKSON &C. The preamble, reasons, and resolutions sub mitted by Mr. Wood, being made the order of the Jay for Thcrsday last, after being read and supported, in a speech of some length, by Mr. Wood, (and which will appear hereafter,) Mr. Habiv moved, that they remain on the table for i1,.. balance of the session, which was decided in the negativc-navs (PS- nays ‘2. Different amend mentw w'ert! then proposed by Mr. Daxim, "hitd. j being .-greed to, the “ Preamble, Reasons, and | Resolutions ” were passed, and read thus : M hcreas, the rc-elcation of Andrew Jack son to the Presidency of the United States, tor the next term is cf vital importance to Jic best interest of the peopl —as such rv event icill tend to perpetuate the happiness end prosperity of our beloved country by preserv ing unimjMiired the Federal Constitution, for the following reasons : Ist. Recausc he is a decided and firm friend to the continuance of the Federal I Union of these states: “It must be pre served.” 2d. Because, he has avowed an honest ! conviction that the payment of the national | debt, is the surest means of reconciling con dieting interest at present existing, and thcrc |by render permanent the blessings we now i enjoy. If lie is elected, there is no doubt, I that all important objects, w ill be accom i plished. | Jd. Because of the strong determinations | which lie has expressed on several occasions to have tlie national debt extinguished, that the burthens upon the agricultural interests | of the’ v Nouth and the commercial interests of l the whole country ilfay he removed—author i iso tile hope that under his second adminis : tration that these great interests of agricul ture, commerce and manufactures may Ik.* J placed upon a common footing of equal pro tection and equal freedom, whereby the con stitution will be restored, and the south re lieved from the imposition of the present sys tem of drawing tribute from the many for the benefit of the few. 4th. Because, by putting his vote to the Maysville road bill, he has arrested the sys tem of Internal improvement, which proposed to establish one violation of tiie constitution by the repetition of another, to maintain the Tariff System by creating a permanent drain from the federal treasury —to perpetuate an extravagant and oppressive taxation by a profligate expenditure of the public revenue. licit resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the State of Georgia, in general assembly met, and it is hereby resolv ed by the authority of the same, That the people of tins State, look forward with deep solicitude to the re-election of Andrew Jack sou to the Presidency of the United States, at the ensuing election, and do hereby pledge themselves to support him lor that high of fice. They do not hesitate to declare it, as their opinion, that lie is the most fit & proper person to he supported, and in the most earn est terms, recommend him to the people of our sister States, at the approaching clce ! tion.

Mr. Baber was excused voting, being op i posed to the resolution on principle, arid the unnecessary expression of an already ascer tained opinion iri this State. The preamble 1 and resolutions as amended were then unun i itnouslv agreed to. MR. NESBITTS RESOLUTIONS I Nominating Gen. Jackson, and disapproving of Mr. Calhoun. After giving these with the resolution of Mr. i Wood, as above stated, the Senate took up the ' preamble and resolutions submitted by Mr. Ncs l bill, and which were published in our paper of : the 2d ilist, when, so much thereof as specified ; the principles of President Jackson’s admiaistra i tion, approved hy the State of Georgia, and the j resolution nominating him for re-election—were, I (upon a point of order) excluded from considera* j tion by the Senate : oecause the same, in sub ! stance, had just been acted on. Here, we think, | was ail oversight, on the part of Mr. Nesbitt and j the advocates and supporters of iiis preamble and I resolutions —an oversight too, which we think material, because, the preamble and resolutions : eovered the whole ground—fully setting forth ' the nonpariel virtues and principles of General Jackson, and more especially those points em braced in, tho economy of public expenditures— opposition to a re-chu.ter of the United States Bank —preservation of the federal constitution — “ tlu States from consolidation, and the south from pecuniary bankruptcy, & political proscrip- J tion” —and a co-iucid lit feeling with the rights ; ol*Georgia and the Indian policy. These were ! important considerations to be set forth, and be. ring the sentiments of the people of Georgia, | would have been echoed by their organs—the . legislature and Executive. Being excluded however, by the previous passage of those of Mr. Wood, the senate went into consideration of the preamble and resolution relative to Mr. Calhoun ; which being amended reads thus . “ Many of the public presses thoughout the United States, opposed to the Administration of President Jackson, have laboured to induce ! a belief, that a portion of the people of Geor | gia are tv illing to make common cause, with the Vice-President, and thereby contribute to the defeat of General Jackson. Reccx? events in this*State have been unjustly bailed, in some of our sister States, as proof of the triumph here, of John C. Calhoun and his principles, over the President, his friends and his principles. The great body of the people of this State have no feeling in common with the pretensions* or with many of the princi ples of .Mr. U 1 nonu ; especially those con tainedin lis late address to the people of the ladled 'States, upon the subject of Nulli fication. They are unequivocally opposed to - the claims which his friends have set up for ! him, to the iY.-sidcrry, arrayed as they are against the rightful claims of Genera) Jack son. No masi can he tlio friend of Jackson, who directly or indirectly .gives aid or counte nance to the most industrious, the most bitter and the most talented of his op posers. Therefore be it resolved by both branches of the LegishUure, That they do not favor the pretensions of Mr. Calhoun, either to the Presidency or the Vice-Presidency of the United St.gca, and that his Excellency the Governor, be, and he is hereby respectfully requested to furnish our Representatives in Congress with copies of these resolutions.” The words in italics in the preamble were submitted by Mr. Cleveland, and were greed to. The words do not in the resolution was substituted by Mr. Daniel for “will in no event,” and was agreed to. On motion of Mr. Nesbitt to agree to the preamble and resolutions as amended, the yeas and nays w.ere called for, and were unanimous —6s voting in the affirmative. Ho that, Or once Troupers and Clarkcrs have spoken in one voice ! SPECKS IN THE HORIZON! During the pending of Mr. Mood’s resolu ";ons nominating Gen. Jackson, in the Senate, on Thursday last, an exclWd and violent per sonal controversy (of words) was carried on between Mr. Wood and Mr. Daniel. We for bear putting in type, the remarks of these gentlemen : but our readers are informed that there was almost the smell of gunpowder, and its terrific consequences. It grew out of Mr. Wood’s defence of his resolutions, fully setting fortli the claims of Gen. Jackson, and the reasons why he should receive the approba tion and friendship of the Legislature; in which he adverted (besidesmany other things which the opposition had used to the preju dice of the administration) to the recent dis solution of the Cabinet—to some of the causes, t&c. among which he said ihcrc was a Jlcletn, and petticoats, concerned—besides there was a direct allusion to the cx-Attornev General in his remarks. It was this part of it, that the Senator of Clv.tham, indulged in a free play of words—and in reply, the Senator from Mclntosh was equally acquainted with the. use of harsh epithets. On the whole, it was j altogether unlike the deliberations of “potent, 1 grave, and reverend soignors.” j J. T. €';jis*p- The charge.brought by this individual against Judge Strong, in a late Columbus Democrat, is one of the most unprovoked and unfoum.ed cha racter. We are authorised to say from irrefutable authority, that the facts of the case to which Camp alludes, are simply these : The two small drafts which Judge Strong drew on Judge Shorter, was an ordinary transaction be tween man and man and bail no earthly conncx. ijU v.'iili the Bank case. On the contrary, the ac commodation was asked for some time before the case originated.. On that occasion Judge Lamar presided with Judge Strong, and con. irred in the opinion delivered, which has been published in two papers, and will stand tlie test of the strictest scrutiny. It would be an act of supererogation on our part to tell the people of Georgia,who or what is Chris topher B. Strong. During a long, useful, and pa- j triotic life, he has enjoyed and still continues! meritoriously to enjoy their u .bounded confi dence. He has ably vindicated and triumphant ly protected their rights, both in the “tentedfield” and in the judicial councils of the State—suc cessfully arraying himself, against the ferocity of the Indian savage as well as against the subtle machinations of the wiley politician. Georgia owes him a debt of gratitude, which she lias in part repaid by the voluntary suffrage which she I has invariably bestowed upon him. But who is this lur. Camp, that charges one cf our most inflexible patriots, incorruptible of ju rists, and amiable of citizens, with malfeasance in office ? For ourself we know not—but we have a responsible voucher, who has furnished us with the following scrap of living biography, which may probably enlighten the public. Were we to compare the portraitures of Judge Strong and J.T. Gamp, we should only say, in the em phatic language of Hamlet, “ Look on this pic ture and then on tthins n “ J. 7’. Camp, of Columbus, formerly resi ded in Madison, Morgan county, where he was accused of stealing, or embezzling money of his employer, when acting as a bar keeper. To the disgrace of the profession, lie was ad mitted to practice law. A short time before he left Madison and removed to Coltnnlms, he was, by the respectable citizens of that town, in a public meeting by resolutions adopted by them, excluded from their society for his base and infamous conduct.” The reputation of public agents is the property of the people—and when that reputation is un justly assailed, il becomes tho duty of the people, properly to resent and punish the outrage. It was once asked of a distinguished Homan, “ which is the best form of Government 1” “ That form of government, (replied the stem patriot,) which considers the slightest injury inflicted upon the meanest citizen, as an insult done to the whole Constitution.” With what more promptitude then, should the people punish an injury attempt ed to ho inflicted upon a mail, who, i the vari ous public stations which have been conferred upon him, has been characterized for his acknowl edged abilities and inflexible integrity—a man, wl)o may, without flattery, be spoken of as a ben efactor of the State. In his crusado against some of our most dis tinguished public men, and against the Republi cans of Georgia generally, Mr. Camp appears as the champion of his party. How far he has suc ceeded iu sustaining its pretensions to an honor ahle mode of warfare, it is not for us to say. The ; people however, w ill not be slow in determining; neither will they be backward in applying :i j efficient remedy at the proper time and place.— j They are not to be insulted with impunity in the ! persons of their official agents—agents who have ably maintained their rights, as well as the honor i and welfare of the State. We have this momenteeen the last Columbus Democrat, in which Mr. Camp says, it was “ his wish that his communication should have been published anonymosuly !" Unfortunate admis sion ! For in making it Mr. C. unwittingly ac knowledges, that it was his intention to have stab bed in the dark, or to have avoided if possible, the responsibility which his unwarrantable charges have fixed upon him. This admission by indi rection, aggravates the moral turpitude of Mr. C’s conduct, and stamps it with unqualified reproba tion. FAYETTEVILLE SUFFERERS. The following < rcular was politely put in to our hands, by the gentleman to whom it is addressed - Fayetteville, N. C.Nov. 14, 1831. To John llunteh, Esq. Macon Geo. The undersigned have been deputed by their Fellow Citizens, to lay before you the annexed Statements, of the amount of the Fund for the relief of the sufferers by the desolating calamity of the 29th of May last, and of tlie manner in which it has been dis posed of. They submit them, with the hope, | that the proceedings of those to whom the distribution was entrusted, will meet with the same approbation trom the donors, so cor dially awarded to them by the recipients. Another duty with which they are charged, ! cannot he so easily and so satisfactorily per formed, The feelings with which they have witnessed the spontaneous outsprings of the benevolence of their Fellow Citizens, from one end of this vast Republic to the other, cannot he uttered. The accumulation of j sucli a Fund as that exhibited by the sub-j joined Statement, unsolicited by us, and com- j ing, in great part, from those upon who.- the! citizcosof our town had no claims hut those ) of suffering humanity and a common national j origin, presents a spectacle honorable to the ! character of a great people, doubly grateful.to j the feelings of the recipients, and calculated! to impress us more deeply with a sense of j the blessings of the happy Union under-which we live, 1 ,4s many of the contributors to this Fund may ne v cr have an opportunity >f witnessing the effects of their bounty, we cannot better express our thanks, and those of the people! whom we represent, than by faintly sketch-1 ing some of its blessings. The calamity with which we were visited was of an appalling extent. It swept from existence the fairest, the richest, and by 'far the larger portion of otn nourishing Town. It left poverty and de spair where opulence and content had long reigned. None altogether escaped its rava ges: and few were left with ability to relieve even the pressing wants of the suffering desti tute. Under these circumstances were the liberal hands of our countrymen opened ? and , the heart of the widow and the orphan was made glad. Instead of the ruin which seem-! ed to impend over so many, and to paralyze their hopes,cc-.fidcnce and energy succeed ed; and each one has been enabled again to enter into the competition with his neighbors for the emoluments of bis wonted vocation. Extraordinary progress lias been made in re building our town; and every thing wears the appearance of activity and a determination to rise with new vigor trom our ashes. To you, and to those who united with you in this la bor of love, is this happy state of things main ly owing: and to you and to them we render the homage of grateful hearts. Be pleased to convey to the community with which you are connected, our sense of; the blessings they have, in part, conferred up on us.—And that they may he spared from all siiniliar visitations, is the earnest hope of Your ob’tserv’s, JOHN lIUSKK, LOUIS I).
