ever the President sends has regulars 10 inter

1t was certainly most i'll advised measure,
for the Executive TO talk about force. This
would have been in time, when Georgia refu-
sed to abide by judicial decision. which she
has never yet done, and trust, never will do.
But Mr.. A. cannot forget the cacoethes scri-
bendi. He still loves full round periods: and
seems to have thought this Creek controver-
sy a fine opportunity for display of "goom
and glory" A most glorioWsty gloomy mat
ter he has made Of it, sure enough. There
can be no hope of further glory from it; nor
do much fear further gloom for after all,
the whole matter will be finally settled as it
should be- and the President will have the
consolation ofhaving" talked large" about no
thing.
Mr.. Adams loses friends by this message.
There was little hope, it is true, OF his get
ting the vote of Georgia, in any event. Gen.
Jackson's name had become a sort of pass
word among the lower order of our politicians.
The last legislature nominated him. But still,
a large part of the most respectable and intel
ligent men, among Gov. Troup's friends, were
disposed to prefer Mr.. A. to the military
. chieftain." They did so not that they low
ed him nlore' than the General but that they
"hated him less" 1t was choice of evils.
Mr.. Adams, however, has now settled that
FNboco u;a
late message as most palpable insult to this
State; and his conduct, in this whole contro-
versy, as indicating a settled hostility to our
interests. That John Crowell, agent for IN
dian affairs, should have more influence at
Washington, than the whole State Of Geor-
gia, irritates and mortifes them. That he
has such influence, in regard 10 our Indian re-
lations, is unques,ionable and that he should
have it is the more remarkable, when all the
cabinet know that his peculiar sympathy in
behalf Of the "poor Indians" has all come in
to existence, since Col. Troup was elected
Governor. During Gen. Clarll's administra-
ton, this same Col. CroweIl, lent his aid to
obtain land from the Greeks, and did obtain
it. But when our State cabinet changed, he
announced that no more land should be had,
while Troup was Governor; and has done all
in his power to embarrass the subsequent ne
gotiations. As before observed our politi-
clans do not like that this g balance of power
should be in such hpnds: and its being so in
clnes them to leave Mr.. Adams.
confess think. with Mr.. Coleman, that,
in one point of view, this message was we'll
enough. Congress has been most "labori-
.ously doing nothing" long enough: and this
matter is fine tub for the whale" 1t seems
TO have been long settled point that no good
was to be done, this year, at Washington. II
this Georgia business occupies the speechif-
ers in Congress sufficiently to prevent their
doing any more harm, till the 9TH of March
it will not have been sent in vain. What 9TH
err good it can do, am not wise CROUCH to
discover. N.

may be called strong Georgia feelings. We
saw no doctrines in Mr. Adams speech other
than what chief magistrate should advance,
and if necessary, support. Gov. Troup has
issued his proclamation of defiance against
the national government; has ordered two
divisions of militia to be in readiness to oppose
any measure which the national government
may adopt for the protection of the Creeks,
and for the arrest of all U. S. agents found in
the state. Gov. Troup acts like a mad man :;
and not only so, but like leader of mad -mcn.
What the result will be ofthese specks of civ
ilwar, time only can determine. We know
what the result will be IL force succeeds to
threats-Gcorgia will have her hands full in
fighting slaves, indians. and freemen.-Ed.1
