1t is true statement or not. is probably
not known to any but the writer of it,
However it is not improbable, as youths
who inherit fortunes, are apt to squander i
as easily as they obtained it. Let boy

1t is a horrible picture whether true OF

tensive means who are crazed with tho
thoughts of making fortune in an incred

Can there be found, i'll this wide world,
One single spot Of ground
Where one can rest from torment free
Where truth and love abound?
Where mems wild passions chloroformed
Repose in silent dreams,
Where naught disturbs our quietness--
Where friendship loves to CLEAN?
All! no, not here can it be found,
But in regions far away
Where times eternal tide

We observe that the Rev. Eli2nr Butler died
early in the month of February last, IN Arkansas
in his 62nd year. Mr.. Butler was at one tinn
familiar to the public mind from his Connection
with the following occurrence, the narrative oi
which we find in Georgia paper;
The confinement of Meesrs Worcester aud
Bntler in the penten,iary was ore of those So
we're measures to which Georgia was compelled
to resort in extending her jurisdiction OYER the
territory of the Cherokee Indians within her lin
its. The State of Georgia i'll ISIS had extended
her jurisdiction that territory coming IN
contact both with the United States and with the
Indians-a and had passed a law requiring all white
male residents in the territory, who were not
agents of the United States 10 procure permit
from the Governor for their residence. and to sub
scribe oath to support the Constitution aud
laws of the State. This law farther provided that
those who violated il should be deemed guilty
of an high misdemeanor. and upon conviction
thereof should be punished by confinement in the
penitentary at hard labor for a term not less than
four years" Under this law Messrs. Worcester
and Butler. with nine others, were convicted of
illegal residence among the Cherokees and sen
terced to imprisonment for four years at hard
labor in the penit, ntiary. These gentlemen were
missionaries, sent out to the Cherokces by the
American Board of Foreign Missions, and had
located themselves at Spring Place, Murray
county, where they had established school for
the instruction of the Indians.
They refused TO take the oath To uphold the
Constitution and laws of Georgia, ana were be-
sides accused of using their influence with the
1ndons to prevent their removal west of the Mis-
sissippi. They were arrested, but were diechar-
ged upon the trial of a writ of hdbedS corpus,
which they sued out, us it appeared that they
were, in some sense, agents OF the Federal COY
