THE ELfiUTloNt
The near approach bf I Inn eventful crisis
and it* importance to the people of Georgia,
imposes upon duly of laying heloro our
deader* a few additional incentives, to aid in
bemovmg from power those, who have held
the rents of government in Georgia t"r a few
years. It seldom happens that a people arc
tailed upon to discharge a more important
Huty, or one fmijjht with more emmeqnCncns
titlior for good or for evil, man in bestowing
their suffrages' in the coining election. The
election of Governor is at alt limes a in liter
of serious import, involving questio;,s of t he
highest imporloncc in the people, and should
bo calmly and dispassionately surveyed leforo
discharging the duty. This then is an Elec
tion of absorbing interest- involving as it does
not only the election of Governor, but of a
legislators, whose do'y it will he to elect the
officers of >he Stale House, and seven Judges
of the Superior Courts to administer the laws
of the country for the next three years.
We have repeatedly referred to the politi
cal character* of the two candidates (or the
Executive office know ami not loot it will now
be improper to recnp'luln'e some portion of our
former remarks. We have shown to every
impartial mind ihat Governor Schley was it
FEDERALIST, of tho blue light cast, that
lie refused 'n exult at the triumph of hia coun
try over a foreign enemy—that he has a i one
time been the advocate of a national II ink,
nnd at * subsequent period its opponent, willi
am offering to tho people any plausible reason
oilier than the hope of his office for Ins
change of opinion—that he lias organized mi
armed force lor the » de purpose of securing
his re-election, and to keep in the pay of ihe
State, a class of men as nfli.ers, who had
wormed themaelve< inlii his conlideuco nnd
patronage hy becoming brawling partisans
But above all we hive slnnvn that he has up
pointed as his aid, and snstaino I and support*
cd by his countenance, a ni in w I nice known
contempt fur the laws lias subjected him to
the charge cf numeroii • high misdemeanors
against the peace anil dignity of the State;
«n£ when he had sustained him with ofli es
contrary to the repealed admonitions ot his
trie ads, he tins through the agency ot his in
etruincnls, the directors nf Hint mitral Hank,
outraged the good sense of a confiding peo
ple, hy having him appointed loan important
•office within (hear gilt. Fur lot it be asserted
ias offon as it may, Ihni the Governor had no
Agency m appointing Bishop as IViller of I lie
■Central Bank, we care not; it in sufficient for
ms to know (li.it long prior to that, with « lull
(knowledge of Iva repealed violations of law,
liis contempt of tho Judicial authority nnd Ins
'usurpation of the most arbitrary and despotic
rule over the citizens of Murray county, Go
vernor Schley sustain 'd and supported Inin—- i
that lie give him office niter office, and j,in
tituled to heap honors and bin dmitmita upon
Jinn. Bit shall wo stop here? Shull wo not
rmher ague lay o;:*n before you his e.\v. lie i
■cy's violation us his p isilivo and unqualified
contract, to pay for the necessaries purchased
for Ihe soldiers by ('apt Morn vcthera'id oth
er officers in M.icon !' Hero was n positive
instruction t" purchase the cl ithiug, fiin si;b
sequent agrrontonl to pay for it utter the do.
tiling had been purchased. Notwithstanding all
which,whan the bill was presented, even alter
file passage of n law tor its payment, lie re
fuses and uHedges that I lie charges are ex
travngant. —Extravigint I Ah! And whence
comes this dmrgo of extravagance ! Who
is iiili.il lias become hi exceedingly economi
cal ot the people’s money I Is it that man
who as Governor of the Hlnlo sanctioned Hie
increase of his own salary if re-elected, to
10'JO dollars muro than any oilier Governor in
the Slate has ever received? Is it Ihat man,
who guvo his assent to the I Ilf rouse of the pay
of the members of Inn Legislature from four
to five dollars n day ?■— Vea it is the same. —
Hear it render, that Governor Mchley refused
to pay fur the clothing of soldiers, who were
engaged battling with tile savage; and excus
es himself by saying that overcoats a Inch cost
twelve dollars wero too good (nr a soldier to
wcai; lint this same Governor, readily assum
ed to the increase of the pay of members us
the L"g slituirp, to nu amount that will cost
the State annually tiltcoii thou*.a ml dollars ot
the people's money more than formerly.
But let us turn from this digesting picture,
and for a moment consider the claims of iMr,
Gilmer, whoso name has been announced for
ihe same office. In linn is presented to the
peop'e of Geoigia a min who was nurtured
in the cradle of Republicanism,—one whose
first act* on the theatre of p Idle life was Ins
defence by hia own arm of (lie innocent and
helpless of his native Stale, against he butch
ery of the ruthless savage,—one whose high
order of talents and unyielding honesty, has
commanded tho respect and elicited the ad
miration of one of Ihe most enlightened and
dolibomlivo bodies m the world—of one who,
while in the Executive Chair of Georgia, was
the Governor of the “Stale and not of a par*
ly"—of one who was not marked for Ins ap
pointment to office men who had no other
qualification than that of being a brawling
partisan, without possessing a character
even for moral honesty.
Such a man is George 11. Gilmer and such
has been his 1 so —Can the people hesitate
which to chouse!
From the Athens 11 tl ig.
As several Van Huron pres-es, and especi
ally the Standard of Union, has attempted
grossly to in sle.id the public mind, noon Ilia
subject of Mr. G liner's vole in the Uiarduf
Trustees of Franklin College, ih relation to
exempting the students of College from mili
tary duty, we deem it but an act of justice
to that gcnllem in to get the matter nglit bc
lone the people;—winch is easily done by u
simple and very short statement of tacts,wnioh
when known, will be satisfactory to every
candid mind, that the Siandnnl of Union lias
basely attempted to torture the transaction
into a proof that Mr. Gilmer entertains opin
ions as untrucas they are anli-topnbliean. The
charge unde, is tins —that Mr. Qdiucr, hi the
Board us Trustees,voted fora motion to exempt
liom militia duty iliustnden's of Franklin Col
lege; & thereby evinced a desire to create a dis
tinction between tho rich and poor—between
the sons ot the wealthy & the laboring class
es oftlia c> nnmniiy, and intending to favor
the former, by exempting them Irom the per
formance of the duties required by every tau
ten— n bearing arms nnd defending bis coun
try. Now nothing is lariher Irom the truth,
as,a plain statement offsets wilt show.
{Since the publicity given to tins slander,
wc have taken the punv to enquire into the
matter from those who were present on the
nccasion'atUided to, and vouch lor the correct*
ness of the statement. It is as follows ;
In his commni.ication to tho Board, the
President of the University, (rum no experi
ence of the evils resulting to the students from
the use of fire arms, nnd the performance of
military du’y in thwir volunteer company as
well us general musters s:\ or sevmi miles
from Athens, recommended that an applies
lion bomade to the Senates Acadoninnisto
ask the Legislature to remedy theovii, by ex
empting the students from militia duty. In
accordance with lire rece.nini'ndaiion of the
President, u Committee ollhc Board reported
«n application to txempl from militia duly
the students of tho College ; which, on Mr.
Gilmer’s motion, was so amended ns to ex'end
the exemption to the scholars tnevery scloiol in
the Slate, sand that the exemptiius snuuid on
»,d*# r»|y' extend to said students in time of peace.
Now from this statement, it will tie seen that
the opinions of Mr. (Miner are directly the
reverse nf what is sought in be impressed upon
the public mind as Ins opinions—Hint instead
■ of endeavoring to draw any line ot distinction
or make a difference between the s'ujents ot
Colege ami the sons of oth-r citizens, or
, I any allempt to favor the former,—lliu di-.
’ j reel tendency and object of Ins s ueadment I
' was to place all classes of the community I
i | on the same fooling.
Too public will be able, hereform, to Judge j
. I w tb bow much correctness Una attempt to in- j
, | jure the candidate ol the S ate Rights Early ■
{ mis been made.
, i And just sb groundless is •I.’* charge rein-,
. jlivc to Ins recommendations and opinions
t about (told Mmet, tndian testimony. In re- i
, gird to tins inmer, wc would earnestly call |
, me attention of tin; public to the following j
| tacts: In I*lßs. the piny now opposed to
. Mr, Gilmer (having (hen a large n sjonty in
. the Legislature) passed a law securing to the
I tSl.itall the valuable ores, mines, and miner
, als in the lands belonging tu the .State, and
making it punishable with confinement in the
! Penitentiary to; secrete or carry any away —
(see M/ic.fo/i,B**(!) In the Henan ,me vote
for the law wus 23 to 10. In ho Home, it,
passed without any vote recorded against it —
(see Journal 1685 ) Among those who voted I
tor it ir. Hie Senate, were (ini. Tonnelie, Col. -
Liddell, Gen. Cnfl' e, Gen, Walker, and Gen.
, Woolen, Sia. This law, winch secured to
, the use nl the State no; only Him gold, but the
. silver, iron, copper, nnd all other valuable mi
, nerals in tho lands of the Slate, was repealed
( in 1629, whilst Mr. Gdm.tr wus Governor of
I the Suite, nnd m accordance with Ins opinion
expre.-sed freely to the member* of the l/'gis
, liiure.
Tho papers opposed to Mr. Gilmer, have
' abused linn without cessation for whai he said
t m Ins message to the Legislature, in 1830,up
on the subject of Indian testimony. What lie
! did say in Hint message, was to recommend
, the repeal ot the following section to the law
’ m 1829: “No, Indian, or descendant of any
j Indian, residing within tho Creek or Chero
j kec Nations nl' Indians, <sti.il? ho deemed n
eometunt witness in any (,’oorl of (Ins Stale
to which a white person rnny he u party, ex
cept such white person resides w.thm the
said Nations.' —(•'tee /),itc.:o/i,199.) By that
law. Indians were undo competent Witnesses
ngoiitstull while persona who resided in the
Nations, and indompelciU as to white persons
residing out of tho Nations. The effect ol th s
law, then, was to make Indians witnesses
against those while persons most liable to bo
injured hy their testimony (if their testimony,
was dangerous,) and to enable bad white men,
who resided out .if the Nation, or on tho Iron
tier, to gu arni'og the Indians and steal from
and murder .liein with impunity.

MAINE ELECTION.
Full returns from all the towns but two, give
Kent, whig, a majority of 730 voles for Governor;
tim o two towns cannot vote more than about
100. Huzza for Maine!
Several writers in the Constitutionalist, or one
writer under several names, has taken the com
promise, as il is called, of last year, for the theme
of his electioneering paragraphs. His last effort,
under the name of Amicus, might have passed oft
unnoticed, and been forgotten, as the former have
been; if he hud not undertaken to impute to the
two gentlemen of iho State Rights parly who last
year represented this county,“conduct dishonors
blc and disingenuous,” in suffering their names
to lie placed this year on the State Rights ticket.
But this charge must be and is repelled as untrue.
If Aijieqs had designed the charge to ho believed
b . the reflecting part of this community, he would
have Accompanied it by some proof of pledge for
/el, tel or ol honor vialuloil. But the truthis.be
lias no proof, and the article was not designed for
the thinking and reflecting part of soc.cly. His
real design evidently was to invoke lire aid oi
Gen. Glascock’s name in support of a desperalc
cause—to raise n clamor, true or false, it matters
not, and tints obtain the votes, however few, of
those who may be willing to condemn first and
hear proof.afterwards. Not only has ho not furnish"
ed proof, hut ho has not even given a specification
oflhe general n.nd sweeping charge of dishonora
ble and disingenuous conduct, unless il bo that
lheir friends have ci. oscn to associate their names
with utlieis titan AmiclM would have chosen for
them. But this lets us inlet the truth of the mat
ter, and the truth is the great £tcivance.
Haro it is —it compromise w.'IS again sought
for anil expected, amt that expectation seas dis
appointed. This is liter substance. But . that ex
pectation was most unreasonable. It tester. 1 'IP 011
no promise ol either of the candidates, or of lt> '** r
li lends; & if n had any foundation at all, it was in
the hopes of those Van Buren men, at whose ear
nest solicitation the ticket, called the compromise
ticket, was farmed; and formed 100 with difiicul
ly, as far as the consent of the Slate Rights parly
| and their candidates was concerned.
That tile ticket was so formed, the prominent
Union men know, and will not deny; and the
unli-Von Buren parly do not believe Iftatthis ev
er imposed upon them any obligation to renew
the compromise this year. The times have un.
dergone a fearful change, and demand men ol
higher talents and oilier principles in the couu
cils of the State; and such men the people will
have.
To bring about a change of measures, there
must boa change of men: and happy the people
who thus have in their own hands the means of
relief from the evils of mal-adrmiiistralion in go
vernment —more happy still they who know how
to use such power.
Next Monday will, no doubt, make it manifest
that such a people reside in Richmond.
MR. KING.
Wo understand ihat some of our political op
ponents in this city, profess to disbelieve that our
Senator, Mr. King, lias made any such speech as
represented by our correspondent in his two lust
letters. They pretend to believe it all to be a
hoax, gotten up cither by ourselves or our corres
pondent, to operate on the approa'hing election
in litis Slate. They apprehend the disastrous
effect* of such a speech upon the prospects of
their parly, and hence they would profess to be
unbelieving, “even should one rise from the
! dead.” Last year they accused us of fabiicating
| the report of Gen. Coffee's death, and now of for
i ging speeches for Mr. King. Wo ask the alteu
i lion of these fastidious gentlemen to the following
loiter from the correspondent of the Charleston
Courier, a Union paper, and they will there find
a full corroboration of all lire malctial facts staled
by out correspondent.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 33, 1837.
Mr. Kt.vo of Ga.. addressed the Senate. He
j declared the experiment of the Depositc Banks to
| have toluly fitted. Hc ltad predicted ibis failure
I step by step. Ha characterised this experiment
! is one of Iho greatest systems of fraud and delu
sion lhal had ever been attempted io lie practised
from the commencement of the world. He be
lieved lhal if the President had not tormented &
tantalised thescßanks so much, they would have
done bettor, hut they never could have constitu
ted an utiiciaot agency. Ho considered that,
throughout the whole oflhe Message, there was
not a single fact in reference to tire cause of the
present distress that was true. The administra
tion scorned to think il impossible lhal they could
ho the cause ol the Jts rose Tno Message was
made up from slump speeches, quack politicians,
and scraps ot lorergu matters. Li reference to the
statement ol the Message lhat the expansion of
paper issues tit Great Britain had proceeded pari
passu with the expansion in this country,he snow
ed ho n documents that, to Great Britain, from
the Ist of January, 1831, to the Ist of January.
1837, the increase in Gre«t Britain had been a
bout 400,Oul) pounds, in tbo United Slates n had
been lOU.OUO.OUt), in the same period. He went
on to read from evidence given before the British
Parliament, extracts to refute the positions taken
by the President in his Message. Ho came lot
; the conclusion from his calculations, that instead!
| of thirty millions which the Message exhibited asj
. our debt to Great Britain, we actually owed Greal I
Britain one hundred and leu millions. It was!
melancholy to see our young and vigorous nation !
treated as a bankrupt, arid yet wc are called from !
the contemplation of ruined fields and uproduc-1
live crops, and desired to think of the glory of
(lie Specie Circular. Glory had depreciated ari
t ' I
nucli as rag money, and is found to re«t ot» ao |
solid foundation. lie adverted w the policy ol the t
specie circular, and tbc pertinacity with which the I
measure was adhered to, against the wish of the |
people. &. against the decision ol Congre-s, forced
upon tbc country a* a blessing, white it bennlted
only the unprincipled speculator. He maintained
that a U.S.Bank was the least dangerous and most
i eliectual agent. He expressed hirnaell shocked at 1
i rbe remark of Mr. Calhoun, lhat Ire would not do s
any thing to place the Pennsylvania Bank of the _
U. 8. in an altitude of triumph over the Govern
ment, and asked which government! the goyern
j merit ot the Hermitage, or the government of the
White House. Ho was shotked to hear such
sentiments. There had come more gray hairs
! over the bead of an young republic within the
1 last live years, than should have grown upon it '
j in a century. He disowned any intention to de
sert the democratic republican party; from that
patty alone he had a right to expect any thing,
but he found it neceoaary to take Ins stand against
this Executive usurpation of the power of re
gulating the financtes of the Country. Ibe r
measure now submitted proposes to continue
the financics in the hands of the Executive.
He did not know what course to lake. He
would move to postpone the futthcr con
sideration of the measure until the regular
session of Congress. He did not believe that lie
ever could bring himself to vole for iho amend
ment of the Senator from Sourh-Carolina. He
dented lhat there had been .a depreciation of the
sound currency of the country, but, on the contra
ry, lhat il had appreciated, in consequence oflhe
dimunition of the paper circulation, and ridicul
ed all the clamor and denunciation which had
been raised against paper money. With the de
preciated paper oflhe Banks, any one could pur
chase provisions, clothing, property in lands and
houses, at a lower tale than he could before the
suspension of specie payments. Did Ire wish to
loan out money on good security, he could lend
tills depreciated paper at a higher interest, than
he could have obtained for a specie loan before
the suspension. He said lhat no man was ever
more beset by spirits of his own creation; when
ever any plau of his was frustrated, lie immedi
ately thought lhat all the world had conspired
against him. He concluded by moving to post
pone the further consideration ot the hill until the
first Monday in December.

Ma. Jones—l have no hesitation in answering
the enquiries of your correspondent of 20th insl.,
since my opinion, on the law referred to, had been
expressed prior to my candidacy. An enquiry
anonymously made, however, I consider, objec
tionable ; as il would be difficult to discriminate
between cases, when information is truly sought
, and questions arc capriciously asked. I indulge
the hope that ycur correspondent is of the former
class.
Whatevci position I may occupy, 1 am oppo
sed to a law that requires a plea to be filed btj an
. attorney at law, or a judgement shall ho render
ed at the first term of the Court. I am of opin
ion such a law is unconstitutional; as the rights
of defence hy himself or his counsel is expressly
guaranteed to every citizen.
Equally am I opposed to a law, that permits
. the defendant, at ids option, to suffer judgement
to be rendered against him at the first term of the

. by allowing the defendant to give a preference

act passed a t the last session ot the Legislature, in
relation to the Cily Cu ~rl ’ and further, lhat 1
will, if elected, vote for iho 'epeal of the leaturo
of il lhal is considered obnuxiou-l- sth sec
tion of the act provides, that “in aiV eases whore
the defendant shall fail to plead, judgmeid* mi »y
nlcrcd by tho Court at the first term, upon (7 1
of tho piantifTs demand;” and the Bth section o
the 3d article of tho Constitution declares, that
“no person shall be debarred from advocating or
defending his cause before any court or tribunal,
. either by himself or counsel, or both.” So lhal if
the act had been as he represents it, it would have
been unconstitutional and void, so far as it piohi
bited a defendant from pleading in person.
At the time the act was passed, there were but
few cases brought in the court, and a likelihood
of tho number being less, notwithstanding tho
addt ional jurisdiction conferred. The court sat
six times a year, and its frequent sessions, with
but little business, were objectionable to the jurors
and the bar. The sessions wo.c reduced to four,
and as il was not supposed (under the then stale
of affairs') that many suits would bo brought, or
lhat any other than a defence to a cause upon the
merits would bo made,in which the parties would
i require mote lime to prepare for trial, it was pro
posed, by mo. that tho court should he allowed to
award judgment at tho first term, where no de
i fence was made. My proposition went down in
tho House, and passed the Sonata without oppo
sition from any one.
As hy tho interposition of pleas in all cases
where the defendants desire time, (which is more
necessary to them now than it has bean) the law
has become a dead letter in this patlicular, I am
in favor of its being repealed.

To the Editor of the Chronicle Sentinel
Pray, sir, let me enquire, through your widely
circulated journal, what are our citizens about?
On Tuesday evening I took the opportunity of
attending a Musical entertainment, offered by
some strangers to our notice, and was shocked to
see, that in so largo a population as ours, not
more than thirty or forty persons, at most, were
present. Yet certainly those who shared with
me in tho amusement of the evening, wtll, I am
sure, bear testimony that the lovers of good and
chaste singing could not have been more fully de.
lighted. A friend who with myself has been in
Ujo habit of visiting the eastern cities, agreed lha (
in New York and Boston, wo had never been
more fully delighted: it was worth our price of
admission to heat Mrs. Kcppel sing the one beau
tiful balled. “Kate Kearney,” alone; and the
young lady's execution and skill on tho Piano
Forte should induce ail our youthful aspirants in
that science to go and see what can be acquired
in that art.
By a placard I perceive, notwithstanding their
cool reception, they intend giving us one more
i Concert this evening. Do try and stur up all
S who have a taste for the fine arts, and let us show
j these fair ones lhat they have not visited one of
1 the principal cues of Georgia in vain. My pride
; is at stake, and could your readers see, as I did,
| their desi-o to gratify the few. they would, lam
• persuaded, he patronized on their next attempt
hy the many. I

JOHN P. KING '
Hm many friends among those to whom he j,
has been considetcd as politically opposed. To ,
all such, his late stand in the Senate of the U. S. ;
against the measures of the administration, lias jj
been in the highest degree gratifying; and on j?
Monday next they arc called on to say, by iheir |
votes, whether or not he shall be sustained. Mr. J
Kitig in itis recent speech declares his acquies
cence in lhe popular doctrine of the day, the
right of instruction. That the next Legislature, .
if there is a Van Buren majority, will instruct'L
him, is unquestionable. Will Mr. King’s friends
then send men to represent them, who will vote
so to instruct him, that, on htsown principles, be ;
must abandon tho noble stand he has taken, or |,
resign his seal! People of Richmond, if yon vote

Maine Election. —By the Boston and Port
land papers, we have full confirmation of the
election of the Whig candidate for Governor.
The following table contains returns ftom all the
towns in the slate, but two, which do not give
more than fifty voles.
Kent (W.) Parks (V. B.)
York, 3480 4037
Cumberland, x 5001 5067
Lincoln, 4689 3491
Kennebec, 6200 3537
Oxford, 2179 3640
Somerset, 3311 2509
Penobscot, 4321 4471

Hancock, 1854 2086
Washington, 1819 1919
31.428 33,692
33,693
736
The scattering voles in the whole Slate do not
exceed 150. Great ] air.a have been taken to col
lect them and so far ha they have been received
they amount to 121. Admitting lhat they are
80(1, Mr. Kent’s election is certainly by not far
from snO majority.
'I lie m ajoiity in tho lower House of die Legis
lators is still undecided. On the tegular day of
“lection, many of the towns failed to make choice,
and another trial was had on Monday last. The
Loco Focos, dispirited and disfearted, hy de
feat, were unable to rally again in some of their
strongest towns. In Frankfurt, Waldo county,
whoso voles for Governor was—Kent 143, Parks
192, tlie Whjgs succeeded at the second trial in
1 choosing their representative hy a handsome ma
jority.—This is iho first Whig representative
chosen in that county since the commencement of
, the reign of terror throughout this land, a period
of eight years. — liu’iitnore Chronicle.

■ Rebellion! —lt is slated in the New York
Times that the Albany Van Buren general com
mittee have decided by a vote of 19 to 6, lhat it
is inexpedient to call a public meeting to sus
tain the Sub-Treasury system. “This says the
i Times, "is what might bo expected from the
capilol of the Empire Stale and is a foretaste of
the views lhat will he generally expressed in the
interior.”
Tho Times, it will bo recollected, is the organ
oflhe Van Buren conservatives in No>v York,
hut it is proper to slate, tho Loco Foeo portion of
the party, at a m-cling in the eleventh ward, pass
ed a resolution in which they denounce that pa
per, for what they call “the vacillating course take
. hy the Times.”— lb.
1 Maine Election.— Thus while our defeat in
j Rhode Island is fresh in our minds, comes the as
tounding news from Maine, one of the strong
holds hitherto, of tho present and late administra
tion. If the administration is to be saved, we
would think that its attention had belter lie turn
ed to t lie “divorce” of “loco focoism” from all con
nection with il, than the “divorce ofßank and
Slate.”— .Madisonian,

the “untried expedient” of Iho adndnislialiotr

1 his Bankrupt scheme, and the Stales will indeed

bankrupt upon non payment of Iheir debts on

to receive Iheir paper or not, in payment of pub

Military Covet of Inruirt. —This (r?bu
nal, convened at this place on the 4th, for tho pu.'"
pose of investigating certain charges against Bri
gadier, General Wool, adjourned on Friday lasi.
On that day, for the accommodation of visiters,
the Court met in the Methodist Church, whore
Genl. Wool, in the hearing of a respectable num
ber of our citizens, made his defence. It is char
acterized by pertinency of argument, and, under
tho circumstances, by a cimmenduble forbcai
ance. Much testimony, both documentary and
oral was submitted during the progress of the tri
al, ail of which was produced hy the accused, and
in which there was an entire concurrence in estab
lishing the innocence of General Wool.
The opinion otlhe I’ourt has been transmitted
to tile President for itis approval, before which
lime il will not be published. Wo understand,
however, that it is, what indeed it must be from
the proof, a unanimous and triumphant acquilal
ofthe accused, from all the charges alleged ag
ainst him. The testimony adduced in this tiial
from Alabama, Georgia,Tennesae, and the Cher
okco Nation;,establishes incontestably lhat tho
whole course ol Genl, Wool, throughout the per
foimanct'Jol his delicate duties while in command,
has been evincive of a strict tegard for the autho
rities under which he .acted, and of that forbear
■ ance and humanity, which should ever character
ize our intercourse with the weak and helpless
Indian.
Genl. Scott and Judge Advocate Dc Hart, de
parted on Friday, for Washington City, and Col.
Lindsay, and Maj. Payne, to their respective
commands in the Cherokee Nation. Genl. Wool
goes hy way of Raleigh to Washington City.—
Knoxville Register,
The Pittsburgh Advocate thus speaks of the |
President’s message:
“It is fortunate for the country lhat it is come j
to tins issue.—The ruinous sirocco must now
sweep on, and finish its work of destruction, or be
at once stayed by the power of the people.”
i'he style is smooth, soft, and sulky, void of of
fence, such as might he expected from Mr. Van
Buren. There is however, tho copia verba, a
plenty of words, to make up for the scarcity of
sound and statesmanlike ideas.”
The Editor of tbc Oynthiana Visitor professes
to he neutral, hut liis Vanburenism is palpable.
\\ c advise him either to carry less of it about him
or to conceal it with more care. We beg leave
to remind him ofthe anecdote of the fellow who
walked away from a matket house with the tail
of a fish protruding from the bottom of his jacket.
“Hark ee, my triend.” said a brother loafer, “vou
