TL'I:?'UAY, JUNE, 7, 1825.
l/uAflC'^ Franklin^ Esq. formely a re-
c',entative in Congress, is a candidate
5urr>’ District, in opposition to Mr.
illiams. The contest, it is supposed,
ill be a very close ont', the candidates
ssfssipj? pretty nearly an equal share
popularity.
The publication of the resolutions
.p:c
1 at the nmeeting of the Meckkn-
.r Convention Committee, is necrssari-
.-c'^tjioni’cl. We hope to be enabled
,,ive them in our next.
I; is now a favorable period for reviv-
^ the discussion of the Convention
—*he excitement produced by
f l^t.j election has nearly subsi.led, and
(; public mind is now prepared to en-
itain this subject, and to feel that inter-
, jf, it which its importance merits.—
!h' liiv.e is as favorable as we could wish
r patient invcstig^ation and calm discus-
o>i: and these are all that is necessary
ro'isethe people to a manly vindication
ihoir ri;^"hts, and to induce anunyield-
determination to obtain them. Let
t iVionds of a Convention, then, be ac-
vo—there is no room fur delay—none
!• incsolution. If we nef,doct from week
MC(‘k. and from month to month, lo
cvifjorous exertions, another question,
the one w hich has recently been put
icst, may arise—and then all exertion
;il be in vain for another period of two
cj's. It is no doubt true, that during
,c priSt two years of inaction, we have
jtmuch of what we had previously gain-
—well-concerted plans have been dis-
lans^ed, committees have been dis
hed, and that unity of action, so indis-
1,sable to success, which was nearly
octed, has been considerably broken;
is important, therefore, that prompt
lid spirited measures should be adopted
recovtr what we luive lost, and to
ke the utmost advantai',e ol the present
■opitious circumstances.
The advocates of a Convention in Vir-
inia are making rapid progress towards
10 accomplishment of their object,
li'ctings, characterized by great una-
imlty of sentiment and an excellent spir-
, are held in the different counties, and
riiiigements are made for a general
eeting of dele.n;atcs from the upper
unties, to devise proper measures for
eeting a speedy consummation of their
.shes. Judging from present appear*
■ces, we can scarccly doubt that their
iccess is near ^t hand : ought not this,
hen, to stimulate the friends of a Con-
cniion in this state? '1 lie first move-
icn;, we believe, was made in North-
arolina—here the impulse was given ;—
Tid shall she now, instead of leading, as
he ought to, fall into the rear, and follow
ta distance the steps of her more reso-
te and spirited neighbors? We shall

is altogether a domestic one, and
death of Ai‘Into.->h was the conse-
ut his treachery. His treaty \viih
Reneral government, was in direct
^ ''uiiion of a positive lav/ ol the C reeks
'^'*pted in a general council, “making
'^^ath for any chief to propose an alieii
'fJii of any niore of their nalio'ial lands;'
the penalty for its violation has been
■^‘cted on him, according to the usak'cs
Indians.
Jcai'n from the So'itu-Cr.rori:^:! State
Gazette, that ^‘the population of the
Creeks is contained in about 36 to'.vns or
representative districts. Each of these
is governed at home, and is represented
in their national councils and asseinhlies
by a chief, known to and acknowledged
in that capacity by the whole nation. To
render valid any national act, or to pass
away any part of the national territory,
a majority of these confederated districts
must consent by means of their chiefs, by
whom the deed of trans^^fer must be duly
signed. This is the known and long
practised law of this nation of Indians,
and General M‘Intosh well knew it.” But
the treaty for ceding away the lands of
the whole nation, instead of being signed
by a majority of the 36 towns, was signed
by only M‘Intosh and the old Coweta
chief; the “other signers were not repre
sentative chiefs, but men of straw, crea
ted on the spot by M‘Intosh, for the ex
press purpose of effecting irregularly and
by fraud, wliat the Creeks were deter
mined never to consent to formally, and
according to their known laws and usa
ges.” If thiv. be a correct statement of
facts, and we know of no reason to doubt
it, where is the outrage of the Indians?
The wrong, the injustice, were altogeth
er on the part of M‘Intosh and his party;
and although we may pily their fate, yet
we cannot call in question its justice. In
the opinion of the Indians, they were be
trayers of their country ; and they have
suffered the punishment which, among
all nations, barbarous or civilized, is a-
warded to traitors.

-.Apropos to Ibis extract, is the following
extract of a business-letter to the Editoi s
of this paper, from one of the most re
spectable citizens of Virginia, whose
name would carry weight w ith it, were
we at liberty to nume him, and with
whom Mr. Calhoun was the favorite
candidate for the Presidency :
“ I avail myself of this opportunity to express
to you the high satisfiiction I have felt at the
course you have prescribed for yourselves, as
Kditors, in relation to the new Administration.
Opposed, as you were, to the election of Mr.
Adams, you h.we s iid you woulil be povemed
by his course as the President of the Union,
and support or oppose him accordins:ly. This
is the true American and patriotic ground,
which every citizen of tlie country ought to
take, and 1 cannot but belifve butthat the Ad
ministration of Mr. Adams will be such as will
meet the approbation and support of a mujority
of the people.”
Col. William Di;ayton has been elec
ted a representative in Congress from
the District of Charleston, S. C. to sup
ply the vacaiKy occasioned by the ap
pointment of Mr. Poinsett as Minister to
Mexico. This is the same gentletr.an
who was recomn'.cuded by Gen. Jackson
to Mr. Monroe, in 1816, to fill the oflice
of Secretary of the War Uepartmeni.
Previous to the election, he w as called
upon. In the public pupers, to avow his
sentiments in regard to the present ad-
iiiluisti ation, and say whether he would
jt)in' the eml)ryo oj)positiun to it; the
following is his reply, published in the
Charleston City Gazette.
“As I consider every citizen entitled
to information on the ptditical sentiments
of a candidate for a seat in Cotigress, in
reply to the (juestion proposed to me by
“A Voter,” I unhesitatingly answ'er,
that I am not “opposed to the President
and his Cabinet,” neither should I “join
the opposition to tliem in Congress,”
frum personal motives, in the event of
my being elected a member of that
body. After this declaration, that I may
avoid the possibility of being misunder
stood, I will avail myself of tl»e occasioq
to add, /ha/ I regard nn opposition to i?idi-
vidnnk as fm tious, and bnncjul to the -pros-
perifi/ of the Union. A representative in
Congress, in my opinion, is bound by the
oblis^ations of honor and duty to support
measures whicii, after the best considera
tion he can bestow upon them, he deems
beneficial to his country, and to oppose
such as he believes productive of a differ
ent result; in huth cases regardless cf the
men fiom whom such measures may
originate. wm. uiiayto.v.

understand that he expects to be detain

his family to this city. The duties which
have devolved upon Mr. Clay since his
appointment to the State Department,
have been peculiarly arduous. The or

the necessity of despatching' an unusual
nundier of Ministers and other Pid)lic
Agents, all of whom were to be especial

upon Mr. Clay a labour which few Se

sliort a period af'er their appointment.

he was not then fourteen. He made them
understand that he was abandoned by his
parents, and wished to live among them;
they consented, on the condition that he

what he had learnt, (for he had be»‘n an
admirable scholar of his age, and gained
all the prizes in his class,) he used to
