" day’s experience confirms us in the opinion that Executive power and patronage, prescribed within very narrow bounda lies; because nothing is more directly adverse to the.great democratic principle, which lies at tire foundation of our republican institutions,than the concentration in a single hand, ot the right ol ap pointment to offices ol honor and emolument. Such power has been accumulating in the Ex ecutive branch of our Stale Government, for sev eral year# pa*t, and calls aloud tor reformation. “Undcrexistrng regulations, the Directors of the Central Dank, and the olhcers ol the Peniten tiary, receive their appointments directly from the Governor. They are both Slate Institutions, in which the people at large are alone interested, and their management and supervision should be exclusively in the hands ot the people ■ repre sentatives. “We have seen enough already to satisfy us, that a change is demanded by the public voice, and the sooner it is ctlccicd itic belter; and we are convinced that tbe election ol those ollicers by the*Legislature, would be approbated by a very large majority ol the people, kiuch a course will not only bo more democratic, but it will place the *. rtspomdl'iliiy where It should property rest, li wilt being the subject nearer 10 die constituent body t .and enable them through their representa tives to exercise a controlling influence over iliose appointments. “In every aspect of the subject, wo feel assured a change would work lor good, and redound to the best interests ot die country. Mw, therefore, is the accepted time , and we trust the present Legislature will take hold of the mailer in good earnest. [!! ] It will bo, moreover, taking a heavy respon sibility bfl lhe Governor’s shoulders, and in many (’llvnstarices relievo him trom much censure, whe ther well, or ill founded.” We extract the above from the Standard of Union which paper is more generally known by the ve ry imposing cognomen ot the “Rook. ’ It is not a little amusing to see to what an astonishing degice the author's intellect has been brightened by the result of our late election. The author ol this Book, though always accorded a man ot un common sagacity,did not until very recently disco ver to what an alarming extent the executive pa- I tronage of our State government had accumulated, nor is it probable that lie would have given us a chapter on that subject, even now, had iiut the people recently placed a man i.ot exactly ot his tebool in tlu- executive chair. “ SUch power,” says the author, “ has been accumulating, in the executive branch of our State government, fur several years past, and calls aloud for relonnalion.” Wonld not this proclama tion have sounded still more disinterested and pa_ triotic, had it been made previous to the recent change in that “executive branch ?” The ap pointing power is not more “adverse to the great democratic piinciple” at this time than it was two years ago—hut to have made the discovery at that time fwould have been very adverse to those printiplcs. “Tinderexisting circumstances, the Directors of the Central Bank, and the olficcrs of the Pen itentiary receive their appointments directly from the executive.” Motistrou'!—Now, when such men a* Col. Bishop were appointed to places in the Central Bank, for whom,if all be true, a place in the last named institution had been much more approptiilc,there was nothing so very fla grant in the appointing power. * That the author of the Book, “has scon enough already to adatisfy him that a change is demanded by the public voice” is very probably true —and we hope a change is about taking place in the administration of the executive branch of our slate government such as will give general satis, faction to thfc people. We would say to the author, content thyself Thomar; and make the best of mailers as they are. The .legislative branch of the Government have power enough yet, and “ great democratic principle ” enough to ase it to the nest advantage, You still have a place at the public crib, and llie Union representatives of the people, have not been so unmindful of the “great democratic prin ciple which lies at tbe foundation of” your parly, aato forget the faithful in the distribution of office.

During my absence, tor several days past, from Ibis place scierul matters of importance have transpired, .if the must of which I presume you have been informed through tire pape s of this place. The resolution appropriating $30,000 for the troops under Col. Nelson, having passed both Houses has been vetoed by Gov. Gilmer. I send you herewith a copy of that document. Wilson Lumpkin has been elected Senator to Congress from this state to fill Mr. King’s vacan cy. Mr. Cuthbert has resigned his seal in the Senate, and it will probably bo communicated by the Governor to the Legislature to day or to mor row. It is said that Gov. Schh y, Mr. Spa ding’ and Gen. Watson are each pressing their claims upon the parly for the appointment. Yesterday, the bill to authorize limited partner ships, a copy of which I sent you sometime since, passed the Senate by a majority of seven votes. Tills morning a motion was made to reconsider It, which was rejected by a vole of 27 to 49. Mr. Mil cr made a short but very appropriate ai d excellent speech against the motion and in favor of the hill. This gentleman is justly looked up on here as decidedly the most business man in the Senate. The rights of the people of Rich mond could not be placed in safer hands. Executive Di.paiitmest, 5 Milledgeville, 21st November, 1837. y I return to tbe House of Represi nlatives the resolutions which originated m that body, passed both Houses, and were presented to me on the 3Ut inst., upon tbe subject of an appropriation of money for the use of the large body of mount ed men, slated to be now on their march to Flo rida, with my reasons for disapproving them. From the account already laid before the bouse, it is evident that the men for whose benefit the appropriation in the resolution is intended to be made, have teen raised without the aut imily ol this State, or tbe United States; that the requisi tion which had been made upon Georgia lor vol unteers reserve in the Florida campaign, had been previously withdrawn; and that Gen. Nelson, by whom they have been raised, had no orders, and held no commission from either Government jus tifying such a measure. I cannot therefore p»r ceive how the public money can, with propriety, be applied to their use. They can only be consi dered as so many individuals directing themselves according to their own wishes to whatsoever couise or purpose they may please: that although they allege that they are on their way to Florida, they are under no obligation to seive against the Semin.des; and that if they should receive :he money and use it, they would still be at liberty to go to Florida or not. If they should go to Florida, the proi abil ty is, ilia' Huy would not be received into the public service. The Secretary of War and Gen. Jesup, who have been directing the operations lor car rying on the campaign in Florida, and know best the materials they want, and what force can be maintained, show by Iheir letters, that ii will be difficult to support mounted men there; that even when they required twelve hundred volunteers from this stale, lew, if any, mounted men, were desired by them. The unexpected accession ol tins large lime under Gen. Neison, consisting pro bably of fourteen or fifteen bundled mounted men, and mar seventeen hundred horse-', must necessarily embarrass, instead of advancing lire objects of the campaign Toe expenses of lire Seminole war have been so great for what i as been effected, that lire officers directing it must be very unwil ing to incur the additional cost which tire acceptance of litis force must incur, especially as it is not the kind wanted for the ser vice. If they should not be received, they may sustain losses, and undergo suffering in making their war home through a country already scarce in provisions, and which must necessarily he ren dered greatly more so by their march to Florid a, which it would ho difficult to depict. I do not therefore think the Legislature ought to do any thing to aid then) in continuing their inarch. The part of lire country through which those men must pass, whether addopled into service or not, must have its quiet and lights of property i I constantly disturbed by their necessities. The very assembling together of so many men with out dis. tp lire, and marching through lire conn -1 try without of law, the orjetsoflho Stale nr Gen eral Government, or being under the Command ; ol officer* having the right to control itrem, is an ewl r-clf of great iiugiii ndo and ought to be te , j dre. red if possible, indeed offbeing encouraged. Ttwe men have been dnwn "xduai'ely from the : Cherokee counties, and those adjoining them. It !is matte w.nitty ol great consloeruiiuu vvb.liter | the Government, bound as it is, to look to tbe dclence and protection of its own people should encourage them to leave their homes lor oilier set vice, surrounded as they are by Cherokee In dians now about to lie removed by the lotee ol 1 law from the country. t For tire purpose of showing the necessity j which exists for retaining in the Cherokee and adjoining counties all the men capable ol bcarhtg arms, I submit to lire House ot Representatives copies of communications Irom Governor Schley to the President ofllio United Stales, Col. Nel son, and other persons,upon that subject. I com these communications, it appeals, that Governor Sjltley considered the danger to the Cherokee country to be so great and immediate a» to justi fy him in assuming an authority not given by lire laws, in organ zing a largo military force for Us defence, notwithstanding that lire United Slates had at the time eleven companies station- I ed in il : that by a miliiaty ordei, issued the 3d i An-u I from Athens, addressed to Col. Nelson, he directed him to uj P a " d or « an, * e a of ten mounted companies, to be 111 . different counties of the Cherokee circuit ; tiio. Col. Nelson did, in pursuance of tire authority thus given, organize and report a regiment as ready for duty, early in September, and advised Gjv, Schley that the lime had already arrived when they should take the field to protect the people from the Indians : that Guv. Schley and 1 Gov. Lumpkin (the Commissioner of the Uni t.-d Stales, then residing at New Echola, and having the best means of correct information) concurred in the opinion that the raising and or ganizing of the regiment under Col, Nelson was producing the happiest effect in removing the Indians from the country : and that Gov. ocliley during the month of September, expressed Ins detei initiation to arm this regiment and call il into active service. If there was any justification | whatovei for the raising of this regiment by Gov. ; Schley and Col. Nelson, at the lime they did, or | any reliance to bo placed upon the opinions ol Gov, Schley. Col. Nelson and the United Slates Commissioner, aato the danger to be apprehend ed by our citizens from the Cherokee Indians, and the happy cllect which this force had in in ducing the Indians to emigrate, I submit to the Legislature whether it is proper now, when the time for the removal of these Indians comes near er, to withdraw from lire Cherokee and adjoining counties the large forco now inarching to Flori da. Admitting that the employment ot Col Nelson to raise a regiment, and lire stationing of one company in each ot the Cherokee coun ties, had another purpose than the defence ol the people, still fears must have been created among them by these warlike preparations. Indeed, there is no doubt that it is highly necessary (bat every one capable of bearing arms in the Chero kee counties should, if possible, be at home, to keep down any disposition winch the Indians may have to do mischief. Strong as I consider these objections to the adoption of the resolutions, they would probably have been overcome by my disposition to acqui esce m the w ill of the Legislature, but for others of a higher and more imperative character. If the appropriation he made for the benefit of the men described in the resolution, it cannot be for any services which they have tendered to the State, or in consideration of any services which they are bound by law or contract to render here after. By the Constitution, the General Assem bly cannot, by resolution, grant any donation or gratuity, in favor ol any person whatever, but by the concurrence of tdvo-tbirds. If the money at tempted to bo appropriated by lire resolution i not for services already rendered to tbe Slate, nor hereafter to be rendered, Xdo not perceive clear ly how the appropriation can bo considered any thing but a gratuity. This conclusion has prob ably been intended tobcavoided by he second re solution which orders that the money expended in pursuance of lire appropriation in lire first res olulion, shall be charged to the Federal Govern ment, and that lire Governor shall take the means .0 have b ' sta'e reimbursed. I cannot perceive by what 'lie of right or law the Stale can expenU money for its own citizens,and charge the Uinien States, with it, when their services have netthe been required by, nor rendered to tbe United Slates. I should feel at a great loss to know what it cans could properly be taken to reimburse the State for such an expenditure. The resolution appears to recognize the au thority nf Gen, Nelson to command the men a> Brigadier General. The Slates reserved the right in the Constitution of the United States to ap point lire officers of the Militia which may be called into the service of (ho United Slates. The law of Congress authorizing the President to : raise volunteers for the Florida service, directs that lire officers shall be appointed according to ' the law of the state to vhteh they may belong The Constitution of the State directs that alt generals of lire militia shall be elected by the General Assembly. If, therefore, these men had’ ■ even been raised under the authority of the Pic- I sidettl of the United Slates, stilt they must be t Commanded by a Brigadier General chosen by i lire Legislature, and vailed into service thruugh - the orders of the Governor of the State. I am not satisfied that the Legislature has the constitutional power to appropriate, by their re , solution, thirty thousand dollars for the purpose t staled in them, by directing that the money he s paid out of lire contingent fund by the Governoi I —The Constitution provides that no money shall he drawn out of the Treasury, or from the public • funds of the S ate, except by appropriation made t hy law. The object of this provision is, to secure 1 the people from inconsiderate and improper dis -1 position of the public money, by subjecting each appropriation made hy lire Legislature,to the iuves • ligation produced hy reading ihcbtll containing it , three limes in three separate days,in each Jlnnse, • as must he done before a law can be passed, n contingent fund is created during each session • of tin; Legislature, for the Executive Department, t because the Legislature cannot foresee, and there. , lore cannot provide specially for all the objects rc t quiring an advacement of money by the Gover nor from one session of the Legislature to lire ’ succeeding. If these men now marching to Florida had , passed hy the scat of government when the Le : gislature was not in session, the Govarnor could , tret have advanced to them thirty thousand dol • lars, to defray their expenses, out of the contin t gent fund, because they were tret in the service 5 ol the Slate, ami the Legislature could not have ; intended to provide for such a contingency. The i lust contingent fund was appropriated for the po ■ litical year 1837, which, according to the practice ; of making up aceoun sat the Treasury office, cx t pired the last day of October; so tnat the uncxi • pended balance of that fund has become a part of I the unappropriated funds of the State, to be np t proprialed by law as other public money, excefi e for such expendi urcs as were made dur rig the e political year 1837, anil propoily charged upon s that fund. 1 For these reasons, il appears to me incotisig -1 tent with the spirit of the Gonsitulion, for the ’ Legislature at its present session to appropriate thirty thousand dollars, hy resolution, charging it 1 upon the contingent fund of the last political » j year; and to provide fir an object which prescnl “ ' ed itself to the Legislature during the present ■ session, is und istood, a nl therefore not coiitin ’ gent. For these several re isons, I cannot ap- I prove of the resolution. Y GEORGE R. GILMER. From tor ... I.' inoinrrctul Adv. A~ue. 22. J f»/.ciL —Hales of 120 Spanish doubloons, at r sl7 29.

On the morning of Monday last, the steamboat j Sain.

Neatly all the cargo on deck was saved the lei.iainder in [ lire hold will probably he recovoredjin a few days, as she is lying in only six or seven feel water. This untoward event contributed to dampen considerably the joy of our citizens octjasi tied by the arrival of the honorable Aleee hißtanche, who was a passenger on hoard, —fortunately, tire baggage belonging lo this gentleman was all on deck and was mostly saved uninjured. The in jury received hy the steamboat is considered lo slight. Sire will probably he set a float,again in a few weeks. Most of the members of Congress appear lo he so facinated hy the new land hill that they have entirely forgotten the navy, land, land, seems to engross their whole attention ; if their disgrace ful apathy should continue much longer, the thunders of the Mexican cannon pealing along our coast may announce to them, the startling Act that the title to the lands of Texas, is not yet secured.

At length the younger of the two broke silence ; “Yuu "nru mot dy ibis morning, Norton,” sain be. “I would give the two best, bullets in my pouch so know what occupies your thoughts." Ids companion raised bis licaa—‘‘My thoughts llornck, are not lo pleasant, that you need wish to buy them. “Ah! I suppose you are still harping on the footprint in the ashes ol the burnt pruinb. This same track app tirs lo have troubled you much. Dnt cheer up! The trappers tiro ret anting frofn the mountains about this season, and it may have been left by one who had straggled from the main body. Besides, it might have been nude some days since; or even were it the fresh moceasin-print ol an Indian, you could scarcely find u hostile one hereabouts. So yon may scatter your fears to the winds. The other mused for some moments, ami then fixed his clear eye on the laec ot It s companion. .. “But tins scalp lock” said In', extending a long thin braid of human hair.—“lt must have fallen from the legging of an Indian. Tire Kansas and Otoes rarely wear them. It has come from the dress ot an Oniaiiawpar I’avv-, nee. Tim first are not too friendly, ami a tomahawk and scalping knife would he out certain welcome from the last. I lie track,too, was fresh; for the gale which spewtover the prairie in the morning vvou.d have cover edit with ashes; but it was clsan, and niidu by tbs heavy tread of a strong limbed man. There are those in our neighborhood whose best wishes could not slop the Highl at an ar row should they catch a glimpse ol ua. It was thoughtless in you, boy, to kindle so large a fire and above all, lo heap it with green brush wood, It will send up a heavy smoke that will scan ely escape the eye o. a Redskin should any change to be lurking m these clumps of forest. The eagle has not a quick er eye for Ins prey thin these cutthroat In dians.” “Well! well! let them come; we ha* e anna.” “Arms!” replied flhc patlicr other, half con temptuously. “ What” will two titles and two knives do against a handled hows and tomahawks? Think you a Pawnee or Otuahaw would venture alone, or even in a small band, in this noighbo hood, where every tribe is at open war with him? 'Take my woid for il, if wa light one, we shall have to fight a hundred.” “Well, well. Norton, wo will do that when they come; but don’t let u.s fighi wo see them—it is a wa-le of ammunition.” The hunter laughed us be replied, “I am some times surprised at inyselt for still clinging to you; for your thoughtlessness is constantly gelling us into scrapes. However, 1 was once young and thoughtless myself.” “Thai of course,” replied Herrick in a merry lone, "li’slliewuy with alt old people lo give that advice to iheir children which lin y never followed themselves. If llie rising (jeneiallou followed to the letter the precepts of their latinos and grandfathers, what a greyheaded world we should live in!” “Herrick,” said the other, evening him goud-, naluredly, “will you never cease this bantering!” “Certainly/’ In thirty years I shall be as demure and solid a gentleman us any of my ago, and will give the same advice to my children d I bare any, that I now receive; and shall ho as much as- , tonished il they do not follow il, as my present advisers are. Ha! look yonder.” At the exclamation, the hunter sprung lo ho test, and instinctively cocked his rifle. On the inow of a low hill, at a short distant from the ■hieket stoi d a largo cluster of animals .closely rowdod together. “Pshaw! il is only a gang of elk,” said Norton, dropping his gun into the hollow ol his arm, “A fine herd, though. They will probably make no the timber.” “If they do we’ll have one of them,” said Her rick eagerly. “Yes,” answered Norton, “and perhaps an In dian arrow hy way of sauce.” “Hush! Norton, don’t speak so loud ; you may startle them. Look ! arc they not bauli ful ?” The herd now stood with uplifted heads, sur veying the whole expanse of prairie, seemingly at doubt whether lo continue Iheir course, or lo make for llie inviting thicket I iheir feel. At length a huge veteran, whose heavy branching antlers gave an air of importance lo his movements, walked a few steps from the lop of the hill—one billow ed—then another—and another. From a walk, their pace quickened In a trot, and in a few mo ments the whole herd pouted down towards the spot where the hunters were standing. There was, however, a suspicion of lurking danger in the actions of the leadei; for us he bounded swift ly furwaid, his ears were pricked up; his head high in the air, moved from side lo side as if in momentary (eat of seine hidden foe. The rest relying wind y upon Ilia guidance, followed fro licking and gambolling. They passed along the border of (he woods, and camo close upon the two mi'n. From (ho moment that (hey had passed (he hill a new (lame had kindled in (he eye ul Herrick. ILs fingers wandered round llie iriggei of his gun, & then were jerked away, as if restrain ed hy the consciousness dial danger might ensue, Still, as (hey approached, his res lessncss in creased. ‘ I dare not fire. Vet how easily I might drop that leader!" said lie raising his rille lo hi ■ check <Si taking sight along its hand. “Ho is very near, 1 might make sure of him. There! 1 have him i now—exactly behind the left shoulder, Norton! shall I pull!” ‘No. ire! I tell you no! Should there ho any | Indians ulmul. your rille erm k would he sure lo rail ihem.

This answer seemed to carry conviction with J 1 ji.—Willi u sigh, which showed how great w«s I the sacrifice, llanick dropped lUo hull of his rille f h«v|l) nrmi the ground.

At first they crowded round the 1 wounded leado , snorting loudly ; then, appur* ■ enlly comprehending his tale, they scoured oil i over the hills. The deserted beast sprang up, i and rushed inadiy -forward in the direction they had taken; the leaps grew less and lc>s; one more hound, he landed on his Teel—hi* leg* tot tered— hey yielded under him, and befell in the edge of the thicket, with the death (juixer run ning through his limbs. “ilntrah ! theie's elk meal for you ! ’ shouted Herrick, drawing his dirk He umial ihe hush es apart with the breach of hi* rule ; bounded through them ; sprang over ihe dead logs; and in a monnenl >fuelled the spot .vlteic the beaut i lay. , “T.va« iho act of a foal!” muttered Nor:on, l as ho prepared lo follow, et the temptation wa, strong, “idio’h blood m that young frame.

Tre sently the hush shook violently; the duik paint- 4 ed head of an Indian was protruded from beneath , ii ;a pair of naked shoulders followed ; and an ( Indian completely armed, emerged to view. With ; snake like silence he stole from tree lo tree, slow- ( ly winding his way towards Herrick.
