The following resolution was yesterday intro
duced in the House of Representatives, by Gen.
Glascock.
“ Resolved, That his excellency the Gover
nor be and he is hereby respectfully requested
to lay lx fdre this branch of the Legislature,
any iufigmat: m in his possession in relation j
to our Indian ah airs, which lie majtdccm pro-!
per to communicate together with Ins own!
views on the subject, so far as he may be!
pleased to express or deem them, calculated I
to aid us in‘our deliberations qn tiie measures
most expedient or proper at the present time
to promote the interest and welfare of tne state
ami the Indians.”
Mir. M'kvard offered as n substitntc for the
same,- tho following resolution :
“ Resolved , That his excellency tho Gover
nor be respectfully requested to communicate
to this branch of the General Assembiv, any
information in Ins possession, in relation to
the Cherokee Nation and winch might have
an influence upon the policy of the measure
ot immediate survey and occupanev of the
Cherokee, lands, which bus not heretofore beeu
! communicated, together with any views ofllie
Executive, upon the subject, which that de
| partment may think proper to make known.”
- Mr. Murray offered in lieu of the original and
substitute, the following.
“ Resolved , That his excellency the Govcr
! nor be respectfully requested to communicate
i such iiiloiui'^i ion to tho General Assembly of
i Hus’State cow in session, as he may deem ex
pedient, relating to the Indian territory, now
! in the occupancy of the Cherokee Indians.
1 On the qusetion to receive the same in lieu
of the original and substitute, the yeas were
H —nays *l. So the motion was lost and Air.
Howard’s substitute was adopted.
The Citation of the Snpivue (’onrt*
The lust Georgia Courier asks,“what impropriety j
Is there—-what right is coniprnmittrd, by answer
ing these citations, and apparing like men con- ‘
scions of the rectitude of our cause, before the !
fribunal constituted by the country to decide what

| comproimtme... vllicil he speaks? It con-j
t ists in
The first place —in the fact, that the Supreme!
Court of the United States has no delegated nu-j
! thc-nty to interfere in criminal cases tgising with- i
in the jurisdiction of the State. And in
The second place —That instead of having such |
delegated authority, the Constitution of the U sited
j States expressly prohibits it, by an amendatory
j provision, which secures to the States an cxelu- j
|sl ve sovereignty over their criminal jurisdiction, j
j Thus sustained by tiie Constitution of the Uni-
I ted States, Geomia, did she recognize the author
i ity contended for in thecases alluded to,would not
| oViy be shamefully and dastardly yielding a sover
■ cign light solemnly guaranteed to her, but would
jin fact, become a party participant with the Su
! preme court, in violatingone of the plainest and
: most emphatic articles in the greatest charter of
| our rights. For should we concede our rights by
admitting the interposition oi an authority not
j only unknown to, but absolutely disclaimed by the
! laws —we would be continually annoyed with its
arrogant and oppressive attempts at usurpation,
i and at the same time become slavishly aink crim
inally culpable in suffering the State to be dishon
i orerf by making a voluntary and unconstitutional
! surrender of our chartered immunities.
It does not not seem to strike the advocates for
an unrestricted supremacy of the Supreme Court,
; that,that tribunal is as liable as any other branch of
, the government to transcend its constitutional pri
j vileges That it has twice transcended those priv

j aries, (aac-hof which were criminal, and came

wonderful performance,which with oilier equally
surprising feats, will shortly be exhibited in this

AUor enumerating some of Ids various aud sur

will also.cause a pole of green pine to be skirned
and gTeased, aud set up in the ground : he will
then take a bale of Cotton under each arm, weigh

foremost: on arriving at the top lie will, to the as.

and descend in the Same manner in which he as
cended—on arriving at the bottom fgain, he w ill
transform himself into a stearn-pou>er loom,and spin
and Weave the cotton into real Anti-Tariff home
spun of 40 different colours. This trick, Mr. J.
learned from the celebrated fire-eater Monsieur
Ohaubcrt, now performing with great applause in
the city of New-York.”
Ned Bucket, who has made so much noise
in the world, has sent us a certificate under his

that Governor Lumpkin considers Mr. J. the

** A slip imin the office of the Georgia Cour
ier, received by thi3 morning’s mail, contains
the following distressing intelligence of a destruc
tive fire in Augusta.:
OFFICE OF THE GEORGIA COURIER ?
Augusta, November 30,1831. 5
FIRE ! —This morning about the
City was aroused by the alarm of fire—arous
ed with difficulty, for the consuming element
had made such progress, before the means
were obtained for its extinction, that it was
not easily arrested. Our population seemed
to have been sunk ni the piofoundest repose.
Many slept, until morning, within a hundred
yards- of the scene,' unconscious that such a
calamity lied happened to the city, and our
neighbors in Hamburgh, who have hereto
fore been so alert lor our preservation tin
similinr circumstances, we are informed,
knew noting of it t ill after sunrise.
It was first discovered in the corncrStoro
of the \yooden House; opposite the Globe
liotei, occupied by Mr. Eobt. W. M’Keen,
and is supposed to have been entirely the
result of accident. The fire had progressed
so far below, that the tenants of tho .second
story had. to save themselves by leaping from
its windows. The wooden budding which'
lnd two or 8- tenements was consumed anti
all the intermediate houses to Gen. Montgo
mery’s Brick Building, including that, and
was arrested at the Store of Mr* Smith the
Cabinet Maker. It swept every tiling back
to Ellis Street and crossed and consumed the
extensive stables, with the adjoining Build
ing. formerly used os a Theatre, belonging
to the Globe Hotel. The Globe Hotel i’self
escaped from tho devoted exertions, of Mr.
Slmnon’s Boarders. It is much defaced arid
its window shutters and those of tiie back
Pin go considerably injured. Mr* Dickenson’s
w-viisie. opposite Shannon's Smbles was saved
with great uini'.iiin, _n^ r having the shingles
on its roof knocked off. Among <i,
is tiie Editor of the Chronicle, whoso office,
with a considerable quantity of its type, <fec.
are buried in the ashes of the contlagra
tion.
There has been no loss of lives, brute or
human. The night was ealru, hut socofil ti.:.t
icicles were discovered near t&e tire in the
morning hangingfrom tiie window silh, where
the engines had flayed on tile houses —ice
covered tiie roofs so that they were too slip
p rv to clirnh, and was found incrusting the
metal pipes of the Engines.
We understand iost of the Buildings and
Goods were insured, some fully, some partial
ly. The loss is pretty equally divided among
the Insurance' Offices and Agencies—We do
not know the amount insured, but have heard
it estimated from oO to 60 thousand dollars—
The loss sustained is of course not yet ascer
tained, as the furniture and mass of Merchan
dize were generally removed to the opposite
side of the street, and saved.
Sufferers, Robert W. Me Keen, V. Cre
pt!, Mr. Daniel Dill, Mr. J. Carmichael, A.
II; Pemberton, Spelman, Haviland & Cos,
Kerrs & Graham, Mr. Boggs, Mr. Shannon,
John Carrie, Cosby Dickinson,' &c.
Rail Road Mails -We understand that
Mr. Ale Lean, the enterprising contractor for
transporting the U. S. Mails between this
city ami Columbia, and between this city and
Augusta, Georgia, has entered into a contract
with the South Carolina Kail Company for
convoying those Mails the distance of twelve
miles in their Rail Road Cars, propelled by
Steam power. Yhe-Colurnbia Mail runs dai
ly, the Augusta three times a week. The
passengers for Columbia will meet the stages
it the 12 mile house, ifnd proceed on the
State Road to their place of destination. The
Augusta stages will proceed from the present
termination of the Rail Road, by Bacon’s
Bridge and Barker’s Ferry. The arrange
ment to go into, operation on Monday next.
Thus will our Rail Road Company have the
honor of being the first to transport a Mail on
this side of the Atlantic by locomotive power.
The Company lioid out to the Contractor the
expectation that they shall he able, by the
time the spring opens, to conveyJhbse Mails
e distance of 40 miles upon the Rail Road,
when it is his intention to avail himself of their
aidjfor the purpose*— Char. Courier.
We have a letter of recent date from a gen
tleman in Hal! county which states, that a re
port was in circulation to winch some credit
was given, that the Chiefs of the Cherokee
tribe have held a Council, in which it was
determined tiwi;. point a delegation to treat for
a fcaleof the muds in tludr occupancy within
the limits of Georgia—dint .we think this re
port cannot be true, as an intelligent gentle,
man who left the Cherokee Country only a
week ago inform us, that the principal Chiefs I
field a Council not long since et Chattaugee,
within tho limits of Alabama, where, as ho
was informed by one of the Chiefs, they came
toa|H)sitive determination not to sell their
lands, but to submit to, and live quietly un
der tiie laws of this State.
The Cherokee Phoenix of the 12th instant
contains the proceedings of “a meeting of the
Citizens of Aqtioliee district,” lick! at ILgh
wasse Town House on ihe 13th ultimo, “for
the puqrose of taking into consideration the
present state of tho - Nation,” at which the
speakers declared their “unshaken determina
tion, firmly, but peaceably to resist every at
tempt to deprive us of our possessions and our
rights as derived to us from our ancestors and
secured to ua by treaties with the United
States.” —Southern Recorder.
The Richmond Enqurier, of the Btli, statqs*
that Mr. John Rondolph intends shortly to
visit Florida, where lie hopes to regain In *
Strength. It. is probable that he will pass
through Milledgeville, and afford our citizens
an opportunity of seeing one of the most tal
ented and unique men of the age. As Gov
ernor Duval (who has now gone to Washing
ton, by way of Kentucky) has an idea of re
signing Ills appointment of Governor of the
Territory, it is possible that Air. Randolph
may be appointed bis successor, if he be wil
ling to accept the office.— lb.
Savannah, November 2fi.
COTTON—Ia Uplands, we have had a fair
business doing since our last report, and the sales
of the week will probably reach, about 3500 or
4000 bales, at from 7 j to 7s, mostly at 8 j a . j for
fair to good fair, and a BJ, for very good to
pri nelots. Very choice will still command 8} a
9 cents. In consequent of the scarcity of vessels
and advance of freights, the sales of all qualities
under prime, are from j to 1 cent below the cur
rency qf the previous week—we quote 8 and 8 7-8
and 9 cents for very choice— Georgian.
Liverpool, Oct. 10,
The demand for Cotton was very brisk in the
eariy part of last week, and a timber advance of
nearly jd per lb. was obtained on the prices of
most descriptions; but on Thursday and Friday
there was less spirit shown by the buyers, and a
siigfit decline has been submitted to, so that the
quotations generally now rule per lb. higher
tiian last week. Bowed at Cjd. to fijd—Ala
bama and Mobile at 4Li.
The arrivals of Fiour at New York, this
year, arc said to be 100,909 Id,ls. ftmn the
West, and us many from the South, l<-.-s than
last year—besides 700,000 bushels of wheat.
