survey is about to take place for running the boun-

yet understood whether the Indians intend to for

paragraph from the last Savannah Georgian:

Georgia, whose names we published in our last,
two having resigned, had arrived at that trne but

hesitation, until their progress is arrested by force

Itwould be source Of sincere regret, if the

Georgia and the Cherokees The ,ripar,ite
controversy between (or rather among) the Co
verDment of the United States, that of Georgia,
and the Creek Indians, if it is not drawing rapid
y to close, has lost much of its interest," in being
dlvesie ed of The character OF violence which it once
possessed. But the late mails have brought US in
formation OF an incident which we are fearful NAV
prove the first scene OF a new drama, that opens
seriously enough, and TO our readers generally we
suppose, suddenly, but not altogether surprizine
~ to US: for we have foreseen that, at some time
or other, the question would arise which has al
ready presented Itself, and the prescience of which,
we believe bad no small agency in exaggeraling on
the part OF Georgia, the magnitude OF the affair with
the Creeks
Subjoined 10 these remsls will be found an ex-
tract OF Letter from the Civil Engineer of the
State OF Georgia, TO the Governor OF that State
stating the interruption, by the Indian Nation, Of
his Typographical survey Of the Cherokee Territory
within that State On receiving information Of
this fact, serious it deemed, the Cover
nor of the State Of Georgia directed several com
psnie5 OF Cavalry, to hold themselves in readiness
to march for the protection of the Engineers; and
-" II Is understood says one Of the Georgia pa
pers, 90 that The Baldwin troop will proceed i'm
mediately on this service"
We trus, that the Baldwin troop has not marched
on any such service; ior, if it has, though the Che
TOkee5 may yielu 10 mere iOTce they may not and
blood may be shed between the citizens OF Georgia
and these Indsns--which reason and humanity
alike forbid
These Indians are the most civilized Of any on
our continent They are TO a certain degree edu-
Gated; they have a government upon the Repre-
sentative principle They have had such connec-
ton with the Whites, that they are almost az much
Whites as Indians they have more nearly realized
the theory OF BENJAMrN FRANKL1s and WIZ
LIAM Ii. CRAWFORD, Of an amsgation with the
Whites, than any other portion Of the aboriginal
stock. The property they hold is held by pc
cular tenure. II not by that Of sovereignty, j,

CONGRESS OF PANAMA.

New Y0rk Ndrch 25.---It mas been stated on
the authority of Providence paper, that this
assembly Of nations would probably NOT be as
numerously attended as at first anticipated for
that Colombia and Mexico alone had as vet
s'nt ministers to it. This is an error We
have now lying before us Guatemala papers
which announce that Don Manuel Vidaurre &
Don Jose Maria de Pardo, were on their way
from Peru; and we know that Ministers from
COLOMBIA, Mexico, Guatenala, and as we be-
lie 2, from Buenos Ayres also, have been an
pointed. The Government Gazette Of Guale-
nald says, that the islhmus was the point de-
signated for assembling; but that once assem-
bled the Congress could choose its own place
for delberation: "For that purpose" adds
this paper, "we will Offer them our beautiful
country, our benign climate, our comforts Of
life, united to the pure, simple, and uuosten a.
tious habits of our people, and finally, our po-
s;lion in the midst Of the two Americas and the
oceans " 1t is to be hoprd that the Congress
may accept the invitation.
The same Gazette informs us, that the Pres
ident the Republic of Guatemala, or Central
Republic, being 100 much inlisposed to attend,
with the zeal he desired, to public affairs, had
retired Tor time from the cares Of the gov
eminent, until his health should be restored In
consequence, NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. had been charg-
ed with the Executive power, in conformity
with the 10th article of the Federal Constitu-
ton. Joint Stock Companies, which have been
taken under the special protection of the Gov
eminent, have been formed in Guatemala for
banking; and Tor mining, pearl fishing, and car
rying on general commerce: the shares are Of
$500 each. The chief management in these
enterprises seems to have been confded to An
tonic Jose de lrlsarri, nov resident in London

full representative, Mr.. Armstrong, at his
post, and voting for the bill
CThe Editor Of the PRESS has fallen into an
error. which does injustice TO the Virginia De-
lepalion. There were only FIVE members abb
sent when the vote was taken on the passage oil
the bill alluded to, and consequently serenfeen
were present instead of hceice, as stated by the
Pass. Ofthcse, nine were for the bill and eight
AGAINST it. The fSe absent members were Mr.
Archer, Mr.. Floyd, Mr.. Garrett, Mr. Riyes and
MIR. Stevenson. When the question was taken
on the engrossment Of the bill, we believe there
were but twelve Virginians in the House.-lt
was to that vote, perhaps, that the Editor OF
the Press had reference, while writing the fore
going article. That MIR. ARMSTRONG was at
his post, and voted for the bill, is true, and we
take pleasure in acknowledging, that he is a
"fai,hful representative" faithful to the People
but certainly not 10 the tcsH drilled Legislature Of

appropriation in the very teeth ofthe intempe-
