thing We ever had an inea Of.
AS she has been built for voyage of a
nnusement and travels in the Mediterra-
hcan, her accommodations having been
rendered the most CONVENIENT that can be
placed on board a vessel. Her large di>
ming room Is in a style of richness and ell
egance never surpassed She does great
honor to the taste and skill OF the mechan-
les aud the genius of the town, and we are
happy to find that all the requirements in
naval architecture, from the practice of
the best workmen for many years. have at
length found an opportunity to produce so
beautiful specimen of the art. She is COM
pletely rugged, and her sails beut, as she
now stands on the stocks & must afford
grand spectacle at her launch, which we
understand is to take place Oh Monday
next.

NASHVILLE, Oct. 2.
Gen. Jackson is expected in Nashville
the last of this week. We understand he
has succeeded in securing the object of his
mission to the southern tribes of Indians.
From the Chickasaws, it is said, he has
procured reliNluishment of all the land
they claimed north of the Tennessee river,
amounting to at least ten millions of acres,
it is coniectured, and also their claims to
part of the Greek ceSsion, for which he CO.
venants in behalf of the u. States to give
them $40, 900 yearly for ten years.--I'his
cession IS important TO Tennessee * Ken
lucky. and will enable the government to
bring into market soma very valuable land
in Tennessee and the Mississippi territory.
From the Chcrokees he obtained relin.
quishment of all the claim they have to the
lands considered AS included in the Creek
cession, and the reserves north of the Ten
nessec river, for which he covenants to
give $4,000 year for eight years. The
Indians settled on farms to be secured the
Peaceable possession of them, or paid for
their improvements.
This great and glorious termination of a
business that hung over this section of the
union like portentous cloud, deserves to
be cornmemorated, and we hope that suit
able arrangements will be made sy the
people Of Tennessee to receive the Gene
raj on his return, with that eclat he so
richly merits and that no time will be lost
in returning thanks to the officers of the
general government, for their prompt at
teution to the expressed wishes of the cite
zens of Tennessee. If we are prompt in
complaining when unjustly treated, let us be
