A Committee of the Ur Jen and State
Bights party of the City of Cbarlesto;',
lately forwarded an invitation to presi
dent Jackson soliciting him to join them
in the celebration of the anniversary of
Independence. The president declined
attendance, hut the frank manner in
which he responded to the sentiments
of the committee, and the severe rebuke
he cast upon the dtsuniouists of that
state, must serve we think ns a severe
damper on the spirits of the nullillers.
Jlany hairbrained politicians of that
party have flattered themselves, that
South. Carolina might break up the U
nion, without interference on the part of
the officers of the general government.
That is. they contend that South Caro
lina might hid defiance to the laws of
Congress, and that the president would
not interfere. From the following ex
trad of his letter, wo infer that he does
not thus construe his powers.
•' livery enlightened citizen must know that
that a separation, could it be effected, would be
gin with civil discoid, and cud ia colonial de
pendence on a foreign power, and obliteration
from the list of nations. But he should also see,
tin it high anil sacred duties which must and will
at all hazards, Le performed, present an insur
mountable barrier to ike success of any plan of
disorganisation, by whatever patriotic name it
may be decorated, or whatever high feelings
may bo arrayed fur its support.
We have received several numbers of

three months since, by Woouward and

the largest class, with new type, at two

journal in the United States. The adver

Columbus June 14.
To The Intendant k Commissioners of
Columbus.
Gentlemen -In obedience to your ap
pointment. we have visited the districts
in the Creejt Nation infected with the
small pox, anil have examined the lar
ger number of eases now existing ill
those districts. About five miles west
of Fort liainbridge (near the residence
of F. S. Cook) on the Federal lload,
we found eight eases of small pox in the
eruptive stage, one of which is of the
covfncnt kind, mid two other subjects
which had been exposed to the infection
were labouring under fever. These ca
ges were in a family of negroes belong
ing to Fhenmteo, an Indian chief.
Ti “e of the negroes hail escaped the
contagion by vaccination, two daugh
ters of the ehfi f who had been recently 1
vaccinated, b;.d j, a d 0 slight fever with
n email eruption (probably varioloid.)
At the Warrior’s Stand. we saw six
rases of the disease, four of which were
confluent and of r.n aggravated chnrac- j
t. r, and two cases of fiver thnlhad the
distinct eruption and all the diagnostic \
symptoms of small pox on the follow ing
day.
On the we«t side of Persimmon swamp j
(nea. Fort. Hull) on the Federal lload, i
there are eleven eases, nine of which are j
confined in a house immediately on the '
road, and are of the confluent kind.
We were informed hy Cnpt. Walker,
that there are ten or more eases of the
disease within two miles of Fort Hull,
and that there had hecn four deaths in
that district, and nine, including all the
iufVeted families.
We proceeded west ns far as the Pole
cat Spring, where we learned from the
proprietor that there arc now existing
five raises of the disease at the Ticcabut
cha to
Tin bi-litntion ofthe Physick danrr
got up . a few Indian Doctors, with
the fallacious view of arresting a prop
agation of the.smnll pox, will assist ve
ry much in giving currency' to the in
fection. Their Green Corn donees will al
so widen the medium of communication
among them, anil facilitate the progress
of the disease.
Nearly all the coses are now confined
to negro families, which circumstance ;
is owing to a late funeral attendance up- ,
on the first fata! case in a negro. But
few Indians have hod the disease, and
the infection might be extinguished at
an early period, provided a general vac
cination is adopted, and the infected hoa
ses and clothing of the diseased ore con
sumed hy lire.
The mann.r anil structure ofthe In
dian houses will very much facilitate a
enatinnanee of the infection, unless there
is an early destruction of every relict of
tlie inf'cted places.
Thus the violence of the disease
has been very much moderated by entire
abstinence from animal food. The dis
eased subjects from necessity had been
sustained lor a month previous to at
tack upon vegetables alone, &, their
laxative cliect hail fortunately prepared
ilu ir systems for the reception of the
disease.
We were informed l y indisputable
authority that every cast* proved fatal
where animal food coaid be obtained.
The Agent (Pol. C rowell) has infor
med the Secretary of War of the cxis
fence of small pox among the Creek In
dians. and he expects in a short time to
receive instructions with regard to a
course to be pursued in the extinguish
ment ofthe disease.
Respectfully.

FROM LIVERPOOL.
The brig Orleans, Chase, at this port
from Liverpool, sailed on the 22< 1 May.
The editors of the American have the Liv
erpool Advertiser of Saturday the ‘2lst
May, from which they extract the follow
ing items.
London, evening, May 18.
A serious affair has taken place at An
twerp. it originated in some boys plan
ting a flag on one the Dutch outworks.
Two musket3 were fired among them,
and a great tumult ensued fifteen people
were killed and wounded. The greatest
alarm prevails in town, and though tran
quility was in some measure restored
when the last accounts came away, a
renewel of disturbances was expected.—
Persons of any property were hastily quit
ting the town.
According to accounts from Warsaw
the Russians have been forced *o evacu
ate Ostrolenku, with coesiderabie loss of
men. Nothing of importance had occur
red. The Poles were deturmiued not to
give a general battle to the Russians, but
wished to draw them towards Warsaw,
as the position of Praga, which has of
lute been so strongly fortified, would
prove most advantageous to the Poles in
case of a general attack from the Rus
sians.
The German papers to the 14th of
May contain no further news from Po
land ; but we regret to think that our ac
counts ofthe failure of the gallant Skrzy
necki are too true.

RESUMPTION OF HOSTILI
TIES BETWEEN BELGIUM
AND HOLLAND—CAP TU RE OP
PORT LA WREN CP BY THE
DUTCH.
The armistice at Antwerp has been
broken, and hostilities commenced be
tween the Dwch and Belgians. Great
preparations were making on both sides
for war. Gen. Chasse had been given to
understand that some fortifications were
raising at the back of some houses near
the citadel and lie accordingly gave or
ders for a sortie to be made lor the pur
pose of destroying the houses by fire.—
This led to some skirmishing, and upon
the following morning it was discovered
that the Dutch had taken posession, and
were fortifying Fort St. Lawrence, a fort
which had been declared neutral when
the armistice was first agreed upon. It
was also observed by tlie Belgians that
the Dutch were going to destroy a dyke,
When a detachment of the Belgian army
attacked the Dutch, and made between
200 and 300 prissners.
STILL LATER FROM EUROPE.
By the arrival at New York oil Satur

she sailed the 31st May, the Editors of

Capt. Garey, for London papers of 26th
and Bristol of 31st May, (the latter con
taining London dates to 30th.) By this
arrival we find no news of a definite or
important character, though they con
tain voluminous versions of old affairs,
documents uninteresting to us, and spec
ulations of the English Editors.

POLAND.
London, Mav 30.—The latest news
from Berlin is to tbe 2lst, and from \V ar
| saw to the evening of tlie 17th ilist, at
which time no news had arrived of the
then hourly expected collision between
Dicbitseh and Skrznyeckt Botli armies
! are mamjeuvring—the Russian to operate
against Warsaw on the opposite side ofthe
Vistula from the previous line ol action;
! and the Poles, to defeat this fresli assault
!on their capital. The country upon the
hue of inarch was desolate, and tlie chol
era morbus, according to our private let—
i ters, 1 rightfully extending its ravages: it
j -‘-id spread into Austrian Gallieia In Li
thuania, the Russians are pursuing a sav
aize extermination. They are hanging
and shooting even their wounded prison
ers, and the peasants and scattered Po
lish partizan corps are executing on the
p P°t in their turn a tumble retaliation.
The French papers of Friday, contain
a long report [coined from a Warsaw pa
per) ot the proceedings of the Lithuanian
insurgents, presented to the National Gov
ernment of, hy an Envoy from
Lithuanian. The insurrection is said to
have extended to Grodno and Minsk, and
the Government of Wilna alone is said to
have 63,000 insurgents under arms.—
I hey have cstablised provisional govern
ments, and have begun boundaries of gun
powder. The peasants fight with the great
est bravery against their Russian oppress
ors, and ‘if Luthiauia falls, ’ suysthe report,
“she will carry to her grave the consoling
•dea that she preferred to sacrifice every
tiling rather than supply arms and ircans
to subjugate the Poles and their common
country.”
The Russians have sent back to War
saw two doctors made prisoners at Minsk.
The Russians at Lublin have become a
prey to the fever; in the hospital at Op
ol they have 6,000 sick.
Commercial letters from St. Peters
burg stale that the Russian officers ofthe
Court, and other nobles of the land, are
clothing, arming, and equipping, at their
own expense, an army of lUU,OUU men
to march against the Poles.
From the London Times of the 27th.
We publish with unfeigned Satisfaction,
letters from Warsaw, bringing intelli
gence from the Polish armies so late as
to the 16th—only 11 days old. Those
communicate a gallant and important ex
ploit of the patriot General Chizanowski;
w ho was despatched by tlie commander
in-Ch:ef with a corps of 8,000 men to dis
turb the left flank and rear of the Rus
sian army, an expedition into Volhynia,
which was conducted with marvellous in
trepidity and succcs, that brave officer
bursting through successive lines of Rus
sians post, beating the enemy in several
engagements, and though in the midst of
24,000 Russians, under Generals Kreutz
and Witt, capturing 800 prisoners, with
which he entered the fortress of Zamosc
in triumph. The main object of this
well-contrived and brilliant enterprize
was to substitute anew force in Volhynia
for that which, since the misfortunes of
General Dwernicki, has been withdrawn
from the patriot cause, by the more du
bious unfriendliness of Austria towards
the Polish libeities. The new chieftain
has thus proved himself to the outset a
worthy successor to the brave and skillful
Dwernicki; though we trust he is not
destined to experience the same vicissi
tudes of war, or the same treachary from
pretended neutrals.
The Prussian government, it grieves
though it does not surprise us to see, Ims
begun the game of “cordon sanitaires”
against the emancipation of Poland. If
the English and French Cabinet once
put themselves in motion, the old com
rade of Russia in the crimes of the 18th
century hud better behave with more cir
cumspection in what belongs to the laws
of neutrals.
To the Citizens of Muscogee.
I reluctantly consented to become a
candidate to represent you in a Legisla
tive capacity. I must decline—you will
therefore no longer consider me before
you for office. Numerous private and
professional engagements require my con
stant and undivided attention.
