THE GAZETTE By EDGAR SNOWDEN. __Z Terms. Daily paper »S per annum. Country paper 5 per annu LATEST FROM EUROPE. The packet ship Europe, Capt Marshall, from Liverpool, arrived at New Yoik, Tues ay evening last, having sailed on Sunday the 16t uit. The names of the new ministers of France, received by the last arrival and published as mere rumors, are confirmed,—Bassano, Premi er; Bernard, of War, and Bresson, Foreign af fairs. The Duke of Bassano immediately pre pared an outline of a Democratic administra tion, which, by the intervention of the King, was modified to at least the adoption of liberal measures,—freedom of the press, &c. &c. If the Ki ng is sincerely desirous of trying the expe riment,there can be no doubt of its success. 1 he Chambers, w hich were to meet on the 30th Nov. will perhaps have passed the appropriation for our tieaty before the President’s Message reach es France. Rumors of change in the British Ministry were afloat. Lord Althorp goes to the House of Lords in place of his fathiher, Earl Spencer, which makes a vacancy as Chancellor of the Exchequer. Lord Melbourne has al«o resigned, and it is said the Duke of Wellington has been called upon to form a new ministry, which is doubtful. Spain.—The news of the defeat of General O’Doyle by the Carlists, spread great conster ftuton .«t Madrid, w hen first know n. The Min ister of War threw up his port folio, but no successor had been named. In the Chamber of Procuradores, lhe audience expressed their disapprobation of the present Ministers, De Rosa, and Toreno. 87 members of the Cham ber of Procuradores had declared, in an ad dress to the Q,ueen, a refusal of all support to Government if its system was not changed.— This caused considerable sensation in the capi tal. General Valdez had been named Minister of War in place of M. Zarco del Valle. M. Medrano would replace Moscoso. At Montdragon, two divisions of the Carlists, under Da-tor. had been put to flight by Esparte ro. The Carlists bail attacked Elisondo, but were repulsed; they were, however, very active. Mina was at Pampeluna, where he had is sused several manifestoes to the people, promi sing pardon to such insurgents as would submit, _bul to those who continued their opposition, he declared a war of extermination. Dissolution of the British Ministry. London, Nov. 15.—We have no authority for the important statement which follows, but we have reason to believe that it is perfectly true. We give it, without any comment or amplifica tion, in the words of the communication, which reache I us at a late hour last night, or rather at an e irly hour this morning. The King has taken the opportunity of Lord Spence* ’s death t»turn out the Ministry; and “theieis every reason to believe that the Duke of Wellington has been sent for. 1 he Q,ueen ‘“has done it all.”— The Morning Chronicle of the 15th, in an nouncing the dissolution of the Ministry, says that Lord Melbourne, the Premier, repaired to th- royal residence on the 13th, and returned on the evening of the 14t.i, with news of the impor tant result. His Majesty expre sed no dissatis faction with Lord Melbourne, but said he con sidered the Ministry dissolved in consequence of the transfer of Lord Althorp to the peerage. London, Nov. \i.—As a Chancellor of the Exchequer must, of necessity, be a member of that House of the Legislature which holds the purse-strings of the nation, and as the finantier, who wa- Lord Althorp by courtesy, is now Earl Spencer, of right, a new Chancellor of the Ex chequer and leader of the House of Commons must be sought for amongthe WhigpoIiticans,or must be supplied, like the chief commissioners of the Malthusian pauper government, from the ranks of their Tory adversaries. Whoever may be cho-en to fill the high and important of fice. the public have the consolation to know that if a better financier than the last Lord Al thorp he not selected, it will, at all events, be im possible to find a worse. An attempt to negociate a Russian loan at Par is had proved unsuccessful. Many vessels have been wrecked in the Black Sea. The Limerick Chronicle says, that Sir James Kempt wishes for the American command. The Times doubts it. A grand Ball was to be given in London by the nobility, lor the benefit of the refugee Poles. Madeiha—A letter from Madeira, Oct. 27, says: “An arrival from Lisbon, the day before yesterday, brought an order from the Portu guese ministry, annulling the tonnage duties on all vessels touching here, which they say never were intended for this port.” We are sorry to have too much reason to give credit to a report which has just reached us, i that a Uev. gentleman at St. Alban’s has ab sconded with a large amount of saving Banks deposits—rumor states nearly £S000.— Cour. The Belgium papers contain the speech of King Leopold at the opening of the Chambers on the 11th. The speech contains nothing re markable, but assurances of the prosperity of Belgium. The Parliament Houses.—There are at pre sent, above two hundred men, carpenters, Ma sons and laborers, at work upon the two large barn-like contrivances wherein the Lords and Commons of the British Parliament are to be called together. Many will no doubt be called, but few, it is believed, will like to venture their lives and limbs under so fragile and uncomforta ble a canopy—and even the workmen laugh at the idea of making it fit for any thing hut a ve ry small number of persons; for, as the walls shrink in after the effects of the heat and mois ture have subsided, large settlings and cracks, or fissures, will take place, and dangerous con-1 sequences must ensue. M. de Bresson, the new French Minister of Foreign Affairs, is said to be the son-in-law of Judge Thompson, of the Supreme Court of the United States. An ingenious individual by the name of Tre hake at Lisheard, has made a complete dress, from’top to toe, of rats’ skins, which he has been collecting for three years. It consisists of hat,, neckerchief, coat, vest, trowsers, tippet, gaiters, j and shoes. The tippet is made of the tails of a hecatomb nf 600 rats, which have been offered up in sacr.fice for this article alone. A famous poacher recently transported, was in the habit of bagging sometimes a matter of 50 pheasants and 20 hares a night from the lord ly manors upon which he depredated. He some-1 Limes obtained for the pheasants a guinea a brace. Cobbett in his travels through Ireland, com plains of passing over large tracts of that fcr tile island without finding a single field of tur nips, mangel wurzel,'or cabbages. He says, the people are in sucn a miserable condition, that even the wives of what are called farmers, are not only nearly starved, but all but absolutely naked! The American Ambassador at Paris was pre sent at the soiree, Nov. 6th, of the President of the Chamber of Deputies, M. Dupin. The cholera is making great ravages at Poic tiers and Rochefort, but while the affrighted in habitants are flying in all directors, the priests and nuns are flocking into all the infected places and braving the danger with heroic courage. For a person of gentlemanly leisure, who has a desire to see something new, an unusual op portunity is offered. Vessels are to start from Liverpool for a voyage around the world, which will carry cabin passengers for £150. Vessels are to be despatched every six weeks. A cir cumnavigation of the globe by the fashionables will, bye and bye, be a matter of as little mo ment as a jaunt to the springs. REPORT ON THE BANK. Mr. Tyler, in behalf of the Committee of Fi nance, yesterday presented to the Senate a Re port on the subject of the Bank of the United States. It was read at the Clerk’s table, chiefly by Mr. Tyler, and occupied in the reading, near ly three hours. It will be found to be a highly interesting paper, and we shall seize the earliest opportunity to display it in our columns. Meanwhile, having listened to the reading of the Report, we anticipate thg reader’s perusal of the whole of it by a brief sketch of its con tents as they struck our ears. The Committee of Finance, it will be remem bered, were instructed to sit during the recess for the purpose of examining into the condition of the Bank. For this purpose, they repaired to Philadelphia on the 13th of September, and pro ceeded forthwith to perform the duty with which they were charged. In pursuit of «heir object, the report says,every facility w as afforded litem by the officers ol the Institution. No hesitation or reluctance was manifested to furnish any book or paper which they wished to examine.— Every avenue of information was thrown wide open to them; ana, u mere De any unm oi failure in the developements which the Commit tee present, it must be considered the fault of the Committee alone. The inquiries of the Com mittee were not prosecuted back further than the. year 1820, when the celebrated Report of a Committee was made in the House of Represen tatives, and acted upon by that body. This ac tion by the House, seemed to preclude reinves tigation of transactions anterior to that date, and the Committee confined themselves, there fore, to the allegations against the management of the Bank which have been subsequently made. The first charge into which the Committee in quired was that of violations of the charter, and other abuses in the Constitution and functions of the Exchange Committee. To this charge they felt it to lie the duly of the Committee to pay mure attention, because it was formally en rolled in the Report of the Secretary of the Trea sury, Mr. Taney, among his reasons for remov ing the deposites of public moneys from the Bank. Proceeding thus from a high officer of the Government, the Committee considered this charge to demand the fullest investigation They examined it accordingly, and took testi mony of the Government Directors, as w ell as Officers of the Bank, as to the rise, progress, and operations of this Committee. In the whole matter the Committee discovered any thing but cause for censure of the government of the Bank, concluding, on the contrary, that the op erations of the Exchange Committee have been legal, advantageous to the Bunk, and conveni ent to the public. The next allegation against the Bank w hich the Committee examined was that of the sub stitution of Branch Dra fts for the notes of the Bank; in regard to which charge also the Com mittee acquit the Bank of all censure. The next charge which they examine is that which touches the payment of the three per cent, stock, which the Committee examined with the greatest care, because of its having been so lemnly preferred by the President of the United States, in his published address to his cabinet on the occasion of his avowing his determination to remove the deposites. as a violation of the char ter, Ac. The Committee were equally unsuc cessful, in this branch of their investigation, in detecting any violation of the charter, or dere liction of duty on the part of the Bank. The next point investigated by the Committee was the safety of the public money in the Bank, and the general solvency of the institution. In the course of their examination on this point, the committee make the following statement of the actual liabilities and resources of the Bank, which, as it may be ol use to both our mercan tile and our political readers, we have with some care transcribed at large: Liabilities on November 1st, 1834. Notes in circulation, $15;968,731 90 Deposite to the redit of the Treasury, 429.465 07 Do. Public Offices, 1,837,168 66 Private Deposites, 6,741.752 24 Capital Stock, 35,000.000 00 Total liabilities of the Bank 1st November, 1834, $59,977,117 87 Resources. To meet the above, the Bank has the follow ing resources, viz: Discounts, 34,667.828 24 Mortgages, 87,591 29 Domestic Bills, 11,086,373 07 Foreign Bills, 2,727,782 11 Real estate, 3,024,788 45 Due from State Banks, 427,102 89 Specie, 15,910,045 31 Total of resources, $67,931,511 36 Showinga surplus of resources over liabilities of 7,954,393 49 By referring to me documents 11 win De seen that last July, the total of the ascertained and estimated losses were set down at $6,005,315 71 Viz: On banking houses 303,359 84 On other real estate 150,820 94 On suspended debt 1,744.427 13 Desperate debts and losses on real estate already charged 3,806,707 80 6,005,315 71 And that the surplus funds of the bank provided to cover its los ses, are, contingent funds 5;901,D55 71* Fund for extinguishing the cost of banking houses 976,019 59 Unappropriated balance of pro fit and loss account 3,166,670 71 Total amount of surplus fund 10,044,646 17 Deduct estimate oflosses 6,005,315 71 Excess in favor of the Bank $4,039,330 40 After .making this very satisfactory statement of the affairs of the Bank, adverting to the man ner in which its credit had been assailed, and by the Government, too (the largest partner in the Bank,) the committee say that it is in the high est degree questionable whether any other insti tution could have withstood such a systematic as sault. much less have prospered *hder it. The result of which, as evinced by the above state ment, only shews (say the committee) how deep rooted was the public confidence in the solvency of the institution, and how high the opinion en tertained of the ability with which its affairs have been administered. The Report next proceeds to take up, and treat at large, each of the other particular points on which the conduct of the Bank has at any time, or from any respectable quarter, been im plicated—giving ample testimony on each case, to sustain the conclusions at which the commit tee had arrived. These points were too nu merous to be stated in detail from memory, but we may enumerate as the most paramount, the following. _ _ The case or xne proiesieu r nu« wm ex change. in which the course adopted by the Bank to bring the question before a judicial tribunal, for a fair and legal decision, is approved and sustained by the committee, as well as the just right of the Bank to damages on the bill in ques The allegation against the Bank of having multiplied its brunches for the purpose ol iu.lu encing public sentiment: Shew ing, from authen tic documents, that the Bank had established Branches only where the business of the com munity had justified it: that in many of these cases, the influence cf the highest public charac ters had been disregarded lor years where the creation of Branches had been urired—espe cially in the case of Nashville—and 30 or Mea ses, we should think, in various States, are par ticularized, in which the establishment of Bran ches has been refused to the present day, though pressed by great numbers of the most repecta ble citizens, because the business of those places did not warrant them; and from the facts exhi bited, the Report expresses the opinion that, so far from establishing Branches where they were not needed by the commerce of the community, if the Bank had yielded to the urgent solicit.it tions from every quarter, it would have estab lish them ad infinitum. The charge of lending money to members of Congress, and other public men, for political purposes, which it shews to be unsustained by any evidence, and wholly futile. Loans to Editors, in which it gives a mass of detail, shewing the groundlessness of much of the slang of the day on that subject. There are many other points of a minor char acter, occupying a large space in I lie report, on most of which the conduct of the Bank is shew n to have been perfectly collect, and some in which it is disapproved. The reading of tin' Report having been finish ed, Mr. Tylkh moved that it be printed; when Mr. Benton rose, and, with much vehemence, and considerable length, controverted the cor rectness of some of its statements, which he pi o nounced false. Mr. Tyikh replied, and averred, in the most solemn manner, the truth of every li'tle of the Re port; till the statements of w hich, he said, w ere founded on documents (submitted with the Re port.) which could not lie. Having thus briefly run our hand over the keys of the report, it may be proper to state, in con cl sion. that it is understood that the investiga tion into the affairsof the Bank was mainly con ducted by Messrs. Tylkh and Manglm, with the occasional attendance and aid of others of the committee. The two gentlemen whom we have named have, we believe, given the greater part ol their time, since the lust adjournmentof Con gress, to this important subject. The report, we understand, was draw n up by Mr. Tylkh. National Intelligencer. From Africa.—Loss of the packet ship Jupi ter.—The brig Ruth, Taylor, from the W est Coast of Africa, arrived yesterday at Philadel phia. Inths vessel came passengers, John Han son, Esq., and Captain A. S. Ilussay; and the crew of the ship Jupiter, which vessel was lost on the African Coast. By thesamearrival we learn, than Jonathan Jones, a colored man, belonging to Maryland, one of the emigrants to cape Pal mas, was drowned on the 7th October last, com ing out of Bassa Bar. He was on his way home for his family. Since the above was in type we have been fa vored with several letters from Monrovia de tailing the particulars of the loss of the packet ship Jupiter, Capt. Knapp. The Jupiter sailed from New York for Libe ria, in June, with passengers for theColony. She had a fine run of 27 days to the Cape de Verd Islands, and met with no accident except the loss of one of the seamen, who fell from a spar. From the cape de Verds they had light winds to the coast of Africa, and arrived at Monrovia on the last day of July, and on the 1st of Au gust a II the passengers were safely landed. They immediately proceeded to the government house, where a hymn w as sung, composed by Dr. Skinner, one of the passengers. The following is an extract of a letter from the supercargo, written at Monrovia (with out date:)— After landing our fre ght and passengers we proceeded to windward as far as Manna river; we hail a tremendous storm on the nights of the 14th and 15th. We were obliged to let go our two best anchors, with 70 to 00 fathoms of chain, veered away on each. On the morning of fhe 15th. we dropt the stream anchor, the vessel still drifting, every sea making a breach over, w hen at 3 o’clock, she struck with a tremendous crash and carried away her rudder. In fifteen minutes she again struck, at which time we were holding on to the main chains, with the expectation that the mast would go by the board. We stove the water casks on neck to make her strike easier, and cut the stream cable to let her drift as near shore as possible, but she continued to strike at intervals till day-light— every moment expecting to be our last. At this period we found ourselves but a short dis tance from shore, and in the course of the day ef fected a landing with some clothing and provis ions, but the natives stole both from us. After enduring much from hunger, thirst and fatigue, we arrived here on the 30th August, where we have suffered from fever, of which Mr. Kyon, the first officer, and one seaman have died.” We areg lad to learn, that the Jupiter and her cargo-was insured in Wall-street for fifteen thousand dollars.- _ Ctur latest HetteT* mention that'provisions and [ffhacen w ere in demand at good prices. t> BLANK SAND PAMPHLETS Tinted, with neatness despatch, at this office COMlfltTKlCATlON. TO THE EDITOR OF THE ALEXANDRIA GAZETTE. Allow me to notice an article which appeared in your paper of Wednesday last, over the sig nature of “Cephas.” The writer has made an effort to conceal from the public his real name and calling, and professes to “hail” from Wash ington. Unfortunately for himself, the like cau tion has not alw’ays been observed. The same sentiments, clothed in the same words, with others, which might only be uttered by an avow ed infidel, have been expressed by him, in the most public manner. This subterfuge, there fore, can avail him nothing. He has too far committed himself already, to escape de tection by this means. Let “Cephas” know, therefore,—if the same sweeping declarations are again used, and an attempt is made to as perse the characters of men, w hose age, talents, and piety, entitle them to the respect of the whole community,—that the writer of this no tice, aware of the place of his concealment, and of his real character, will not hesitate to speak I 0ut, in the language of such rebuke as the ar i rogance of the attempt may merit. Cephas” assumes that the office of Chap lain to Congress is now perverted and abused.” What ground has he for this declaration? V\ hen, how, has the office been perverted or abused' The men who for years past have filled that of fice, are not the men to pervert or abuse any institution of the kind. Will Cephas” look over a long list of names which might be given, and then venture to call in question the piety, talents, or faithfulness, of the men who have filled that office? Will his own character sus tain him on any one of those points, when brought into contrast with the Hyland's, the Posts, the Durbin's, the Sparks', the Stockton's, and others? Have those men, indeed, played the svcophant”? Have they brought religion into disrepute”? Is “filthy lucre the god of thir idolatry”? Are they to be designated as foot-balls, to be kicked about amongst hungry, needy, greedy expectants of man’s favor”?— Verily this “Cephas” must be a rare instance of piety, dignity and devotedness, when he can treat such men with so little ceremony. Sweeping declarations, such as your corres pondent uses, are easily made; but care should be taken that nothing but the truth be spoken. It may be sport to Cephas” to indulge in such reflections, but it is death to the innocent and unoffending. Cephas” wishes the office abolished." He could find others to join him in this wish.— his zeal should carry him still further, and he should (notwithstanding his profession) be willing to put down every ordinance and in g'itution, of religion —he would not be alone. A mass of ungodly, unprincipled men—of infidel pretenders, would unite with him, most cordially, in the prostration of every thing that is fair and lovely, and of good report.” connected w ith Civ istianity. Happily for the country, and the cause of religion, this “Cephas” has been born a century or two too lute to bring about such a state of things us this. A n experiment wasonce made, in a fair and beautiful countiy, to do with out the Bible—without the worship of God— without the ordinances and institutions of reli gion ;_and the result of that experiment has been written out in chat aiders of blood. Would Cephas” bring hack those da) s of imp ety and bloodshed? Would he exclude the Minister of God from the hulls of leg slutiun. and forbid that he should be found there, invoking the Di vine blessing on our lianpy country? Yovr correspondent asserts, that “ever since the commencement of the present session of Congress, a set of men, professing to be Minis ters of the Gospel, have been hanging about the Capitol and Boarding Houses, electioneering." Ac. Let Cephas,” if he has spoken the truth on this subject, give the names of the individu als referred to. Does he mean to include in this statement all those individuals whose names have been before the public, and who have been voted for as Chaplain to either House of Con gress? If so, I repel the calumny. Asapplidto some of them, at least, the statement is vholly untrue. If all are not included, why should the innocent suffer with the guilty? 1 challenge to the exhibition of names. Better that a few in dividuals suffer, than the w hole body of Clergy should be so stigmatized. The proof of the statement is demanded, and the vulgar gibes and taunlings of your correspondent, as they are intended to be general in their application, are thrown back with the most perfect con tempt. WT ll'if ll ti io CIlKinot IfAIIH .i.’ J vvii.n,.,,,! dent makes a most powerful attack on the Cler gy of this country, asserting that “they are the persons who bring so much scandal upon reli gion;” and charging them with the “love of! of power and the love ol money.” “A scandal to religion?” No. Mr. Editor, ihis slang of infi delity, w ill not he believed at this day. No coun try, and, perhaps, no age of the world, has pre sented a greater number of talented and holy 1 ministers of the gospel, than this country can boast of. If, indeed, here and there, a single exception is found, and another Judas intrudes himself into the ministry, let not the whole body I he reproached for the misconduct of a single in I dividual. “The Clergy a scandal to Religion 1 and the Church?” Where, then, are its orna- i ments. its defenders—the bright and illustrious examples of the power and influence of Piety? Does not every branch of the Chuich require that the hands w hich hold her Chalice shall be pure?—that their character shall he as “spotless as the vestments of their office?” Will “the Christian public,” for whose information your correspondent writes, thank him for this attack upon the character of their clergy? Surely not. I “Cephas” more than insinuates “that the office of Chaplain has been made one of the spoils or j victory—has been given as a reward to some] friend of the present administi ation— that minis- I tershave been recommended for the office, on the ground ol their being political partizans, and have been voted for, because they were firm in the faith of the “powers that be.” Here is not only another aback on the clergy; but, al so, on the character of the members of the Se nate and Housp of Representatives of the Unit ed States. Could riot your correspondent have given vent to his own party feelings—could he not have given evidence in some other w ay, of his own political views, than by such a course i as he has pursued? High minded and honora ble men, whether in Congress or out of Con gress, will frown, indignantly, on this attempt of your correspondent. The statemeat, as ap plied to the present incumbents, is known to be untrue.' epnas” records with an air of satisfaction, the fact that.Mrs. Rnyall received two rotes for Chaplain. Votes, as he says, “given in con tempt and derision.’’ He also professes to have been “credibly informed that several other j j members would have united in running that la- I dy against the very pious and Reverend co ddles for the office.” Such is his langua!?’ ihe communication of Wednesday. I am e ln |y mistaken, if in addition to what he has t?’ stated, your correspondent has not elaevher"ere pressed his regret thatJMrs. Roy all was not ed to the office. 1CC‘ In common with every lover of order and d corum. 1 regret ed to learn the fact stated h your correspondent. It was a source of s faction to me, however, to knnv that but/ votes were thus given, and to belie re that th were given only in a playful 'and sportive soil? without any design to reflect either on the oft* itself, or upon the individuals voted for mct Instances of this kind, how ever wrong, are n uncommon. I could cite, lor the inlormationnf your correspondent, an instance of voting in body lor whic h he possesses a high respect inner* feet keeping with the above. I must doubt ih j “credibility” of the information of “Cephas'' It is impossible, utterly impossible that the mem j bers of Congress had made up their minds and I uii>>vU u uv.viummuiju lo runMr« Royall for the office of chaplain.” j Mrs Royall, or Miss Fanny Wright, or Tom Paine, if living, might suit the views of ale* thoughtless and Vicious individuals, ejihcr ,n Congress, or out; but Cephas” may be assur red that the Representatives of the American People, can never degrade themselves and reli j gion by such u course of conduct as that gested by him. As “Cephas” may desire to reply to this com munication, to save him from all unnecessary trouble, and that his attack may be properly aimed, 1 would inform him, that I ant no "e*. 1 pectant of office”—that my name has never been before the public as a candidate for the office of chaplain—that I am no political par tizan,” in the common acceptation of those terms. I love a consistent Christian minister i —and take delight in defending such against the attacks ol the vain and arrogant. For the present, I take my leave of your cor respondent, wishing him better employment m future. VlNDEX.

Georgia.—There is something so disputable in the proceeding detailed in the following ex tract, and which contrasts so strikingly with the elevated and magnanimous course of South Carolina, that we must believe it will go far to I open the eyes of all parties to the hypocrisy and j injustice of the clamor that has been raised against nullification. I Our readers will remember that an Indian, having been condemned to death for murder] appealed to the Supreme Court, by one ofwhone judges a citation was issued requiring the Go vernor, in behalf of the State, to appear and an swer the appeal. The day of the execution liar jug been fixed in ad vance of the sitting of the court; and inasmuch as no proceedings could bring about a collision before the return of the Writ, the Governor, who had insisted that the Supreme Court was the legitimate tribunal to decide all questions between a State and the Federal Government, determined to avoid an issue, by executing the Indian instanter; and in I asmuch as they supposed that “dead men tell no tales,” the poor Indian was hung. The par ty were felicitating themselves upon their escape from their collision with the Supreme Court, w hen another citation was servpd upon the Go vernor in behalf of another Indian, who was imprisoned in the Penitentiary, and who had near six years yet to serve. We can imagine the consternation produced by the notice of ibis proceeding; but it seems that a friend of the Governor has devised a way of escaping the consequences of a collision with the court A corie-pondent of the Macon Messenger says: I Tfte Senator from Bibb reported a bill this morning, instanter, some of the provisions of which are, in substance, as follows: That aII In 1 dians who shall hereafter commit penal crimes, i shall he taken within five days after the trial, and WHIPPED mi the bare bark, for out, two, or three successive days, not exceeding thirty-nine lashes at a time. That all Indians within this State w ho shall be guilty of a capital crime, [shall,- on conviction, be sentenced to death by 1 the court w ithin 20 days after such conviction. That his Excellency the Governor be em powered to commute the punishment of the ln dian now irwthe penitentiary, by taking him out and striping his jacket with 39 lashes, and send ing him off, before the Marshal, with his posse of Constables, demands his reh ase. in obedience to the mandate of the Supreme Court. Sub* rpiesion! submission! submission!” The same writer well remarks:— “Will the Union party pass this bill, to the disgrace of Georgia? \V ill the Governor ap prove it, in the face of his nullification message’ Now, gentlemen, what do you think is the mean ins of this movement? Oh, says the Senator of Bibb, my Union friends have gotten info a diffi culty. and they have called upon we to get them out of it, and I know of no other way but to back out. My isms' require submission to the mandates of the poweis that be at ashing ton. Now, Messrs. Editors, will you an me ple about this curious machine ot Me’s? 0, ye people of Georgia, how long will you let these abominable tools delude and dbgrace your once dignified state? Oh my countrymen! think o this quailing ism' machine. And we would add, what n contrast is here, to the elevated and patriotic course of mi Carolina! A great question is involved. Supreme Court are, or they are not a proper bunal for the adjustment of such cases. n Carolina says that that court has and resolves to defend her rights. I he m Party of Georgia says that the court has juri diction, and deprives her citizens of thdr ac knowledged rights, by such trickery as Will the people of that stat endose their own ms disgrace, by continuing such a P^r^'n A Mysteky Explained.—A family in m* t had for some time been thrown into Pr,'0t fusion by the constant ringing of the bells o house, by some unknown hand.
