Escape from a Rattlesnake. — A curious in
cident occurred at this spot to one of our men
named La Course, which was nearly proving
fatal. This man had’ stretched himself on the
ground, after the fatigue of the day, will) his head
resting on a small package ofgoods, and quickly
fell asleep. While in this situation I passed
him, and was almost petrified at seeing a large
rattlesnake moving from his sido to his left
breast. My first impulse was to alarm La
Course ; but an old Canadian whom 1 hail beck
oned to the spot requested me to make no noise,
alleging it would merely cross the body, and go
away. He was mistaken ; for on 'reaching the
man’s left shoulder the serpent deliberately coil
cd itself, but did not appear to meditate an attack.
Having mado signs to several others, who join
ed us, it was determined that two men should
advance a little in front, to divert the attention
of the snake, while one should approach La
Course behind, and with a long stick endeavour
to remove it from his body. The snake, on ob
serving the men advance in front, instantly rais
ed its head, darted out its forked tongue, shook
its rattles ; all indicu'ions of anger. Every one
was now in a statu of feverish agitation as to the
fate of poor La Course, who still lay slumbering,
unconscious of his danger ; when the man be
hind, who had procured a stick seven feet in
length, suddenly placed one end of it under the
coiled reptile, and succeeded in pitching it up
wards of ten feet from the man’s bddy. A shout
of joy was the first intimation LaCourse received
of his wonderful escape, while in the mean time
the man with the stick pursued the snake, which
he killed. It was three feet six inches long,
and eleven years old, which I need not inform
my readers wc easily ascertained by the num
ber of rattles. A general search was then
commenced about the encampment, and under
several rocks we found upwards of 58 of them, all
of which we destroyed. There is danger at
tending their destruction, provided a person has
a long pliant stick, and does not approach them
nearer than their length, for they cannot spring
beyond it, and seldom act on the offensive ex
cept closely pursued. They have a strong re
pugnance to the smell of tobacco, in consequence
of which wc opened a bale of it, and strewed a
quantity ofloose leaves about the tents, by which
means wo avoided their visits during the night.
Wo had however nearly as bad visitors—the
mosquitoes, which from the fall upwards, an
noyed us dreadfully. Wo were obliged to make
a slight fire of rotten woo I i.i th j cul de sac of
our tents which merely caused asmoke without
flame, & which effectually drove them away : but
the remedy was as bad as the disease, as we
wore nearly blinded & suffocated by the smoke.
Horrible Spectacle. —There was, however,
; in the midst of our festivities, a great drawback
from the pleasure wo should otherwise have
■enjoyed. I allude to the unfortunate Black-feet
who had been captured by the I'lat-heads.
Having been informed that they were about put
ting one of their prisoners to death, 1 went to
their camp to witness the spectacle. The man
was tied to a tree; after which they heated an old
■barrel of a gun until it became red hot, w itli which
they burned him on the legs, thighs,pi jck,che' ks
and belly. They then commenced cutting the
flesh from about the nails, which they pulled out,
and next separated the fingers from the hand
joint by joint. During the performance of these
cruelties the wretched captive never winced, and
instead of suing for mercy, he added fresh stimu
lants to their barbarous ingenuity by the most
irritating reproaches, part of which our inter
preter translated us follows;—“My heart is
strong. —You do not hurt me.—You can’t hurt
me. —You are fools.—You do not know how to
. torture.—Try it again.—l don’t feel any pain
yet.—We torture your relations a great deal bet
ter, because we make them cry out loud, like lit
tle children.—You are not brave: you have small
hearts, and you arc always afraid to fight.”
Then addressing one in particular, he said, “
It was by my arrow you lost your eye;” upon
which the Fiat-head darted at him, and with a
knife in a moment scooped out one of his eyes;
at the same time cutting the bridge of his nose
nearly in two. This did not stop him; with the
remaining eye he looked sternly at another, and
said, “1 killed your brother, and I scalped your
old fool of a father 11 . The warrior to whom this
was addressed instantly sprung at him, and sep
arated the scalp from his head. He was then
_ about plunging a knife in his heart, until he was
told by the chief to desist. The raw scull, bloody
v socket, and mutilated nose now presented an
horrific appearance, but by no means changed
his tone of defiance. “It was I,” said ho to the
chief, “that made your wife a prisoner last fall;
we put out her eyes;—wo tori; out her tongue;
we treated her like a dog. Forty ofour young
warriors I he chieftain became incensed the
moment his wife’s namo was mentioned : he
seized his gun, and, before the last sentence was
ended, a ball from it passed through the brave
fellow’s heart, and terminated bis frigtful suffer

1 : tf presenting to llie people this prospectus, the Edi
. •: y lor deems it superfluous to any one word with n
g..id to tlie utility of newspapers. There ere, however,
particularly at this lime, other duties that may not he
■ avoided so easily. In entering the political arena, wc
f may not conceal our sentiments ; for we conceive it our
, duty, to our friends and opponents, fridhdly to avow
them. The State flights’ Doctrines as contended for
; by tlie best expounders of the Constitution are those
we avow; wo hold that each slate has reserved to her
r self, all and every right, not surrendered up and enum.
. crated in the Constitution of the United Slates ; that
they may, nay should, aud have reserved for tho very
purpose, those rights, that whenever occasion requires,
they may be exercised ; but tlie states should he care
lul, in the exercise ot what are called and supposed to
ho reserved rights, those surrendered up are not viola
ted : for they are no more the rights of the slates than if
hey had never been exercised hy them. The General
Government too, must move within its legitimate sphere,
carefully observing what powers it may exercise—what
are reserved to lire respective sovereignties and what
have not bean granted. While hero, we remark that
we arc uncompromising Union men, and feel and consider
ourselves identified with all those that now rally under
tho standard of tlie twenty.four states, whatever minor
'distinctions may, heretofore, have separated us.
As respects tlie parties in Georgia, too, we have a
word to say.—Wo have acted with perfect satisfaction
to ourselves, with tho Republican party. The spirit
of that parly will he carried into our labours ; but we
wish it understood that we have not, and cannot
now consent, to advance our party views and pros
pects hy contending against those ot our opponents ;
we offer to our opponents the free use of our columns,
if they are properly used.
It is useless to say any thing of tlie interesting coun.
try in which the Intelligencer will be located—the
farmer is invited there hy its fertile lands—the un
healthy, by its waters and air— tho chymfst by- tho
valuable treasure found in its bosom.
The earliest attention and notice will bo given of nil
new discoveries of gold mines or other valuable curiosi.
tics.
The Editor will practice Law in tho counties of Che
rokee, Class, Forsyth, Lumkin and Floyd, and will be
thankful for any business committed to his attention in
those counties.
All letters and communications to the Editor, relating
to the Office, cr other business, must ho postpaid to cm

'All communications intended for publication must be

GEORGIA :
SIT W3XSO.I? IftTSTPISEIT Governor and
Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of
this State, and of the Militia thereof;
lo Charles C. Hi!)*, Kaynire, Principal Keeper
nf the Penitentiary.
WHEREA.®, at a Superior Court held in and for tho
county of Gwinnett, at the September Term, 1831,
Samuel A. Worcester and Elizur IJuiler, were convict,
ed of illegal 'residence within the Territory of this
State, 'then inhabited almost exclusively by Cheroket *
Indians, and such other persons as were unfriendly to
the rights and interest of the State: whereupon they
wore sentenced to four years confinement in the Peni
tentiary of this State.
And whereas, sound policy has, since the confine,
menl of said persons, induced tho constituted authori
ties of this stale, to provide hy law, for tho legal settle
ment of the unoccupied part of said Territory, by a free
white population ; and having provided for tlie organi
zation of said Territory into counties onj table form
and size, for tho convenient and regular administration
of public justice, and the duo execution of the lavla of
tho slate. Ami the Legislature being assured, ut’their
late session, that, under existing arrangements, which
wore daily going into execution, the country would
shortly contain a sufficient Lumber of well qualified in
habitants, to carry f; ly into edict these sevend oh.
jrcls; did therefore repeal tho law under which the
said .Samuel A. Worcester and Elizur Butler, were
convicted and sentenced us aforesaid.
And whereas tho said Samuel A. Worcester and Eli
zur Duller, have made known to me, that they have in
structed their counsel, William Wirt and John Sergeant,
Esquires, to prosecute the case which they had thought
fit to iustituto before the Supremo Gourt of the United
States, against the State of Georgia, mi farther, lint
have concluded “ to hare the question of their contin
uance in confinement to the magnanimity nf the State,"
And moreover, taking into consideration, the earnest
solicitude for the release of those individuals, which
has been communicated to me, in the most friendly and
' respectful manner, by many of the most distinguished
friends of the Stale, residing in various parts of tho
Union—amongst whom are many of those who have
sustained the State and her authorities, throughout this
unpleasant controversy. And also taking into view, the
triumphant ground which tho state finally occupies in re
: lotion lo this subject, in the eyes of the Nation, us has
been sufficiently attested, through various channels, es
pecially in the recent overwhelming re-election of Pro
, sidant Jackson, the known defender of the rights of the
j state throughout this controversy. And now believing
as I do, that not only the rights of tho state have been
fully and successfully vindicated and sustained in this
matter, but being assured as I am, that tho State is free
from the menace of any pretended power whatever, to
infringe upon her rights, or controul her will in relation
’ to this subject. And above all other considerations, the
magnanimity of Georgia being [now appealed to. I,
i therefore, as the organ of the state, feel bound to sub.
, tain the generous and liberal character of her people.
Whatever may have been tho errors of these indivi
duals—whatever embarrassments and heart-burnings
■ they may have been instrumental in creating—however
1 mischievous they may have been, in working evil to the
’ state, to themselves, and the still more unfortunate Che.
rokees—and whatever may have been tho spirit which
has influenced them to the course they have pursued
1 and however obstinately they may have adhered to the
i counsel of their employers, aiders and abettors, yet tho
; present slate of things is such that it Is enough—that
, they submit the case “to the magnanimity of tlie State.”
They shall therefore go free. And know ye, that for
and in consideration of all the foregoing circumstances,
I and many more which might be enumerated, I have
• thought proper to remit, and do, in virtue of the power
, vested in me by the Constitution, hereby remit the fur
ther execution of the sentence of the court, against the
said Samuel A. Worcester and Elizur Duller, and order
1 that they he forthwith discharged,
i In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand,
and caused the seal of the Executive Depart,
meet lo he affixed this fourteenth day of January,
in the year of onr Lord one thousand eight hun
dred and thirty-three, and of American Indc
: pcndonco the fifty-seventh.

* PROPOSALS
FOU ENLARGING AND IMPROVING THE
SOUTHERN 2AOTKH,
A Paper now published Weekly in Athens , Geo.
fTSvli E rapid increase of population, wealth and Intel.
t:. ligence of Western Georgia, have prompted the
Editors of the “ Southern B.vNNjsr,” in order to keep
pace with the improvement of the times—to lay before
their friends and patrons, the following proposals :
They intend about the first of February next, to publish
the “ Banner 1 * on a largo imperial sheet—not inferior in
;nze or style of execution, to any now published in the
.Stale —for the accomplishment of which purpose, they
have ordered horn New. York an entire new sot of mate,
rials.
The Editors deem it unnecessary at this late day, to
enter into u minute detail of their political creed—they
would deem it but a work of supererogation. Suffice it
to say, their best efforts will always be directed (by dis
i seminating correct principles, religious, moral and
political) to the advancement of the interest, honor and
happiness of the people—particularly that portion ol
them comprising the Western and North Western sec
tion of the Slate; ami to whom they mainly look lor pat
roiuigo and support.
The patronage of the Banner is now respectable, but
not.sufficient to meet the increase of expenditure that
must necessarily occur, in effecting the improvements
contemplated. They are sanguine, however, in the
ii vu, that a liberal public will yield to their elibris, that
support and encouragement, upon which they alone
must rely, for the successful accomplishment of an un
dertaking so responsible.
TERMS.
The price of subscription will be the same as hero
tofbrc—viz : $3,011 per annum in advance, or SI,OO if
payment is delayed until after the year expires.
Vs an inducement to our friends to exert themselves
for us, wc offer to give a copy of the Banner for every
ri’.N responsible names forwarded by any one individual.
Letters, postpaid, addressed to the Editors, or to
Amjon Chase, Publisher, will receive prompt attention.
